Yan Zaizen had an instinctual feeling that her words invited danger. He didn't know what she was talking about, but her actions had a hint of deep manipulation within. As for repaying him? He didn't think, for a second, he would see a single drop returned. His instincts were essentially alluding to him that fact. Therefore, with a wave, he sent her packing like all the other scheming girls who boarded his ships.

”Ahhhh!!!” Leng Xue shrilly screamed after being launched away. At the moment, she had barely any true-essence or soul energy. Her vital energies were barely enough for simple movements. If she fell, she would descend through the realm into the Border Expanse infinitely. The moment she entered the Border Expanse, she wouldn't be able to draw any essence from the heavens...she would die.

Her heart went cold at this realization. The handsome young man from before truly wanted her to leave, either willingly or not. She was beyond confused by his actions. Her mind was so inflated with confusion and frustration that she shrieked loudly, ”why did you save me if you were going to kill me?!”

”Oh?!” Yan Zaizen's suddenly realized his actions. He hadn't given her the spatial ring he prepared. She did so many things, said so many things, that he just felt so uncomfortable that he threw her off quickly. Tao ran to the railings, looking at Lang Xue fall through the frozen rain-filled outer space. At first, he was planning to help her, but a spatial ripple suddenly appeared below her. She went through it.

THUD!

Her body slammed heavily onto the deck of the realmship. A grunt was released and her breathing was labored. She felt a heavy sensation of deadly crisis just now...her heart just couldn't stop racing.

”Apologies, here.” Yan Zaizen threw over a spatial ring filled with sufficient resources to recover as best she could. He didn't intend to protect her, but he didn't want her to die by his hands either. The spatial ring landed right next to her, causing her eyes to hone in on it despite her deep frustration. She realized what this was and grabbed it, after briefly scanning it, her eyes widened in shock.

”This is it?!” She questioned in disbelief.

”Yes.” He waved his hand once more, sending her overboard. She screamed once more in indignation and grievance. If she could, she would claw Yan Zaizen apart limb by limb. Tao coughed a little, feeling pity for Lang Xue's fate. If it was any other man, she would've been a cauldron, but Yan Zaizen wanted her off his ship faster than light itself.

”WAAAAAAIIiiiittttttt!!!!!!!!!!” She thunderously shouted with all her energy. Her voice was getting softer and softer as she dropped. Yan Zaizen just realized that...in Deluge Realm's outer space, there seemed to be some gravitational pull. Normally, objects would float in outer space due to the lack of a gravitational pull, but this realm didn't work like that.

He looked at the frozen rain once more, his brows furrowing. How come the rain was frozen in an outer space with a gravitational force? How come he was wet if the rain was frozen? Initially, this didn't dawn on him, but now it was starting to make him feel uncomfortable.

Tao discovered this too, looking at the frozen rain. Even if he drew characters in it, they still remained. Yet…

”This realm is abnormal, not just its society but its laws as well,” Yan Zaizen murmured in confusion.

”Wait! I came to this realm to find an object! I know where it is, but I was captured by the Realmlord!! PLEASE!!!” Somehow, she gathered her remaining soul energy and sent Yan Zaizen a soul transmission. Yan Zaizen still wasn't willing until she said some other words, ”Not only are there other heavenly objects, there may even be a Regalia of the Heavens! I SWEAR!”

”Oh?” Yan Zaizen's interest was piqued. With a snap of his fingers, a loud thud once again resounded. Lang Xue's body slammed onto the deck of the ship.

Lang Xue's long, white hair was chaotically disheveled. Her breathing was heavy and filled with frustration. She looked exhausted and even weaker than before. When she looked towards Yan Zaizen, her eyes flickered in rage. However, she knew that she had to do this otherwise she would just be recaptured by the Realmlord. It's not like the resources in the ring was sufficient for her to make it to the next realm.

”I'll split the heavenly treasures with you, eighty-twenty if you let me obtain them!” After a while, she gritted her teeth and said.

”Hm?” Just as he was about to wave his hand once more as a negotiating tactic and to get more information, his brows furrowed suddenly. He looked upwards. Her last words weren't said in soul transmission, but in her actual voice. It seems it was heard by others who were discreetly watching. His eyes narrowed as an intense killing intent started to suffuse within them.

For less than a thousandth of a second, he felt murderous, malicious, and vicious killing intent from above. It was so strong that even Pinaka felt it despite its briefness. ”The Realmlord…” She mentioned, obviously knowing who had been watching.

Yan Zaizen didn't like being spied on, his voice filled with tyrannical ferocity as he said coldly, ”Yu Shi, may I ask why you're watching me?” The moment he said that, Lang Xue revealed an intense fear in her eyes. She looked at the space Yan Zaizen was gazing at and felt her heart tremble.

In empty space, the frozen rain started to spiral rapidly formulating a portal of sorts. From this portal, Yu Shi calmly walked out. Yan Zaizen's eyes grew colder. He knew that Heavenly Genesis cultivators can use their true-essence to rip open space and view anything with their heavenly sense, but this person was doing it in such a difficult to perceive fashion.

If Yan Zaizen's spiritual sense wasn't at the Astral Soul Realm, he wouldn't even be able to discover him. Similar to how, when Guan Yin was observing him, he didn't discover it.

The elegant Realmlord, Yu Shi, walked out dressed in a sapphire-blue robe. His eyes contained an unfathomable emotion and his face held a soft smile. When Lang Xue saw this, her heart started to drop to arctic levels of coldness and despair. This man's eyes seemed to desire the world.

To become a Realmlord, you needed several requirements. One, a World Law based heavenly shrine. Two, your own Mortal Dao. Three, a force that could govern a realm. After all, a single person, regardless of strength, can't govern an entire territory alone nor can they profit off its benefits to the maximum.

This man's dao was Mortal Dao of Desire. He may seem calm, elegant, and warm, but he contained an intense desire towards a specific thing that exceeded all else. The most often focus of this dao...power. It's not so easy to develop the Dao of Desire. After all, Yan Zaizen desired power and many other things as well. Which dao wielder didn't?

The level of intensity to develop the Dao of Desire must be stupendously ridiculous. It was a peak lower-tier Mortal Dao. Despite this, it was a troublesome dao. Imagine what bestowing desire into people could do.

”Oh, Yan Zaizen. I wasn't watching you, I was looking for her.” He warmly pointed towards Lang Xue. ”You see, there's been a mix-up. She wasn't for sale. As a token of my apology, I'll repay what you bid and double it.” His words were spoken casually, as if it was nothing. However, Yan Zaizen eyes grew colder. He could perceive the frozen rain was being galvanized somehow. They were faintly trembling.

”Apologies, but I bought her, so she's mine. What's mine shall never be someone else's. You can leave.” Yan Zaizen tyrannical declared, waving him off. Witnessing this, Yu Shi's originally unfathomable eyes turned cold and malicious. ”Are you sure?” He asked with a tone that could freeze ice. The deep murderous aura was rolling off his body and his heavenly aura was on the verge of eruption.
