My Master Disconnected Yet Again

Chapter 144: The Wandering Flame Race

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“The Yu Feng Immortal Territory is not an immortal territory left behind by the ancient divine beings, like we thought. It’s just where my Wandering Flame race lives.”

“And the Ten Directions Divine Armament is not some weapon left behind by divine beings. It’s just a valuable weapon that my lineage created. It was meant to subdue this immortal territory to keep order and stability.”

“My ancestors lived in a world of utter turmoil. This immortal territory was put together by the generations of hard work of my ancestors. Although it is located far away from the three thousand realms, it managed to formed an entire universe on its own. My ancestors were born with very special powers – they could create objects out of condensed Qi. My lineage was born with the ability to create objects out of Qi.”

“But because of this power, we attracted disaster upon ourselves. The weapons that we created became stronger and stronger and became in-built with the ability to destroy the world and create another. Because of this, my bloodline threatened the Three Realms.”

“The immortal Qi contained in the immortal realm in the ancient times was different from the present – there was almost as much immortal Qi then as in the divine realm. Immortals and divine beings fought at times. The Immortal Emperors in the immortal realm sought help from my ancestors, to create a weapon that would be able to subdue the divine race.”

“My ancestors did not respond, but they did create a few weapons that were strong enough to defeat the divine beings. This greatly angered the divine beings. Naturally, they began to attack my ancestors. My ancestors had the help of the weapons they created, but they were too few nevertheless. Of course, they were not strong enough to fight the divine beings. The battle was extremely devastating – the entire Yu Feng Immortal Territory was destroyed. My ancestors were almost wiped out. Only a few of my ancestors managed to escape the three thousand realms.”

“That was how the Yu Feng Immortal Territory got exiled to the immortal realm. My ancestors fought to survive by sealing their abilities in their meridians- they were thus able to avoid the divine beings, who tried to come after them. They longed for the day that their descendants, upon becoming Immortal Emperors, would be able to return to this land and restore their former glory. But the majority of the people from my bloodline who were able to escape ran to the mortal realm instead. The spirit Qi in the immortal realm was thin and it was difficult for them to ascend to immortality, much less unlock the meridians.”

“I, too, unlocked the memories in my meridians by chance a hundred thousand years ago. That was how I found the Winter Spirit leaves to get me past the Lishui River. It was also because of those memories that I knew the situation within the immortal territory.”

“Although all of this happened in ancient times, the original Wandering Flames race was probably similar to me – akin to the average person. But I still want to find my ancestors. This Six-Joint Mystics Sword is actually the cornerstone of this immortal territory. It is also the key that can unlock my ancestors’ meridians. Only with it can we awaken my ancestors’ memories.”

“Now you understand why I must retrieve this sword, right?”

Xun Shu finished telling the entire story and took in a deep breath. He looked up at his three companions worriedly.

“Holy shit! Shen Ying, you foodie, you should have left me some dishes, right? Aren’t you afraid that you would choke to death by eating so quickly?”

“I left you some.”

“Left my ass! Apart from green peppers, leeks and garlic, is there anything else in this bowl? Where’s all the meat?”

“Don’t be picky!”

“What cheek you have to be saying this! Wait... Yi Qing, you bootlicker, put down that pastry!”

“I made it!”

“Shit!”

The three of them fought like this over food for a long time, and nobody paid Xun Shu any attention.

Xun Shu: “...”

He felt something in his brain snap. What was it!

Flips table!

(╯‵□′)╯(┻━┻

Was anyone listening to him? Could they not show him some respect?

He must have been blind to attempt being honest with this bunch!

——————

This trip to the Yu Feng Immortal Territory took them half a month. They exited the territory ahead of time because... their storage bags were full. They thought of turning back to buy more storage bags, but decided that it would take them far too long to do so. Lonemoon had to return with gritted teeth.

Before any of them could step atop the leaf to get across the river, they noticed a huge group of people standing on the opposite end, looking at them.

“Fellow Immortal Yi, you came out so quickly.” Immortal Emperor Ge You grinned expectantly and stepped forward. Obviously, he had not left that spot for the entire month that Yi Qing had gone. He had been waiting there for the group of people to return. He scanned Yi Qing and said, “It looks like you reaped great rewards from this trip.” The sword Qi surrounding his body had increased by a considerable amount!

“Immortal Emperor!” Yi Qing nodded his head in greeting.

“Do you have any news of the Six-Joint Mystics Sword, or of any other divine weapons?” He asked anxiously.

“Yes!” Yi Qing answered honestly.

“Wh- what?” Ge You paused. He did not understand the undertones in Yi Qing’s response.

“Your Majesty Ge,” Xun Shu addressed Ge You without waiting for Yi Qing to respond. Stepping forward, he continued, “You would be better off asking me instead of him.”

Ge You frowned and looked at him suspiciously. “Young Emperor Xun, what do you mean?”

“I mean...” Xun Shu smiled. “The Six-Joint Mystics Sword belongs to me now. In future, Your Majesty need not send any more sword immortals into the immortal territory to search for the sword.”

“What!” Ge You’s expression twisted but he regained his composure quickly. “You... really found the Six-Joint Mystics Sword!”

“That’s right, I did not think that I would ever get this lucky.” Xun Shu flicked his wrist and immediately, a golden sword appeared in his hand. It was the Six-Joint Mystics Sword.

Ge You’s expression darkened. He took in a couple of deep breaths, as if he was trying his hardest to suppress the fury that welled up in his chest. After a few seconds, he spoke through gritted teeth, “Then congratulations, Young Emperor Xun.” His cultivation level was higher than Xun Shu, but the latter was a sword immortal with a divine weapon. If they fought, Ge You had no confidence that he would emerge victorious. He had no choice but to swallow his anger. Turning around to face Yi Qing, he forced a smile. “I never thought that a certain someone would be this useless. To think I was so hopeful!”

He did not wait to hear a response after saying this. Ge You tutted and gestured for the group behind him to follow him before turning around and flying away. It was obvious that he could not stand to look at them any longer.

Shen Ying, who was carrying the newly-repaired divine weapon – the Myriad Sword Armour: “...” Er, he’s gone now. Should she still give him the weapon?

“It’s fine if you don’t want it!” Lonemoon immediately took hold of the Myriad Sword Armour from Shen Ying’s hands and stuffed it into his own storage bag. He had been afraid that Yi Qing would have difficulty explaining himself, so they went back to pick it up for the Immortal Emperor. Now, they could save on their gift.

Although the divine weapon was not useful to those who were less than Young Emperors, they could still pick the Heavenly Fire Stones with it! It would be a waste just to throw it away.

“You all had better leave this place quickly!” Xun Shu said. “Ge You might know that I have the Six-Joint Mystics Sword, but he has always been petty. You have caused him to look shameful in front of a crowd – he will not let you off easily. What’s more, you are on his territory...” Xun Shu paused mid-sentenced and quickly added, “Why not you move to my Shan Dong Immortal Abode?”

“No, thanks! We like our surroundings.” Lonemoon turned Xun Shu down politely. No other place would be as profitable as where Invincible Sect was located at the moment. With the cheat around, Lonemoon had little to worry about regarding the Immortal Emperor as well. “But in future, we might indeed have to impose on Young Emperor Xun.”

“Alright, then. You know your situation best.” Xun Shu turned around to face the sloth-like Shen Ying and said, “You helped me a lot this time. If you need anything in future, do feel free to ask.”

Lonemoon’s eyes twinkled. “We shall thank Young Emperor Xun in advance then.” He bowed politely and turned to address Yi Qing and Shen Ying. “Let’s go, it’s time to go home.”

Shen Ying stepped forward, but something tugged at her robes.

“Master, maybe we can’t....” Yi Qing’s expression had changed. He lowered his voice, “I can’t control my immortal Qi anymore. I might... have to breakthrough!”

Shen Ying: “...”

Lonemoon: “...” Son of a b*tch!
