Chapter 553 - Zhao Hongxiu (1/2)

Clang!

Gao Fang immediately knelt and smashed his head on the ground. He shouted loudly, “Greetings, Master.”

Meng Chuan nodded slightly. “Very good.”

Following that, the illusory world collapsed.

Gao Fang was in a daze. He was still kneeling on the Grand Yin Star with his six companions.

“Gao Fang, follow me.” Meng Chuan waved his hand; Gao Fang didn’t resist at all. He was sent into a grotto-heaven.

Swoosh.

Following that, Meng Chuan took a step and vanished.

The six remaining cultivators exchanged looks.

“That Eminence actually took Brother Gao Fang away.”

“Unfortunately, he didn’t fancy us.”

The six Supremacies were filled with mixed emotions. It was already a great blessing for an Eminence to save them from the dire situation. They didn’t dare hope for the mighty figure to take them away. However, with one taken away, the remaining six naturally felt discomfort.

Envy and jealousy surged in their hearts.

“That Eminence might have taken away the cave abode, but he may have also left something behind. Let’s search carefully,” said the horned man.

“Search carefully again.”

The six Supremacies continued their search on the Grand Yin Star. In the next month, they did indeed find something. After all, the cave abode owner had lived here in seclusion for a long time. The Grand Yin Star was very vast. Many places had been the Eminence’s experimentation grounds for his techniques. Many other residences were also scattered around the star.

…

Meng Chuan entered the River of Spacetime again and arrived at Pang Ming Realm.

Whoosh.

Returning to the ordinary outer realm void, Meng Chuan looked at the inhabited world in front of him. Pang Ming Realm was about 15,000 kilometers in diameter. With the spacetime laws’ restrictions, Meng Chuan couldn’t enter it.

Swoosh.

Meng Chuan waved his hand, and Gao Fang appeared beside him.

“Master.” Gao Fang was somewhat puzzled. After being stored in the grotto-heaven for a moment, he had been talking with Supremacy Qing Gu. He was halfway through his conversation with Supremacy Qing Gu when he suddenly was thrown out.

“This is Pang Ming Realm, right?” Meng Chuan pointed at the inhabited world in front of him.

“That is Pang Ming Realm, my homeworld,” replied Gao Fang respectfully. He glanced at Pang Ming Realm and was secretly astonished.

His master was too fast. He knew that it would take him over 30 years to return to his homeworld from the Grand Yin Star through the River of Spacetime.

As for his master? He arrived in the time it took to exchange a few words.

“There should be another Supremacy in your Pang Ming Realm,” said Meng Chuan.

Gao Fang looked at Meng Chuan in shock and nodded. “Master is wise. There is indeed another Supremacy in Pang Ming Realm.”

“Tell me about that Supremacy,” instructed Meng Chuan.

“Yes.” Gao Fang felt mixed emotions.

There were two Supremacies in Pang Ming Realm. He had had some conflict with that person. They weren’t enemies, but they weren’t friends either.

“She’s a female Supremacy,” said Gao Fang respectfully. “Her name is Zhao Hongxiu. She’s the strongest assassin in Pang Ming Realm. She’s good at archery.”

“Archery?” Meng Chuan raised his eyebrows. He couldn’t help but feel an affinity towards her.

His wife, Liu Qiyue, was also skilled in archery. Very few outer realm cultivators used bows and arrows.

“Zhao Hongxiu’s personality is rather special.” Gao Fang hesitated for a moment and said, “In the early days, she was a member of an assassin organization. Later, she betrayed the assassin organization, which then pursued her… In the end, the entire assassin organization was destroyed because of this. She did everything according to her wishes. She hated corrupt officials the most. She even infiltrated the capital and killed the ministers under me.

“I’ve been cultivating for longer than her—800 years,” explained Gao Fang. “After I became a Supremacy, I unified the world and established the Great Xuan Dynasty. The Great Xuan Dynasty has been in existence for more than 600 years. Zhao Hongxiu has only cultivated for 300 years. When she grew in strength, the Great Xuan Dynasty was also helmed by my descendant as emperor. She ignored the Imperial Court and did whatever she wanted, causing me to fight her.
