Chapter 247 - They Are Waiting (2/2)

Both of their auras skyrocketed to their limits. With no hesitation, they shot forth with tyrannical momentum. To them, Yan Zaizen was not only their savior, their brother, their young lord, but he could no longer be divided by a 'title'. Their bond was so much more than just that.

Shi Yan and Zhou Xiuhei were taken aback by their decisiveness. Before they could even react, the two were halfway towards the golden vortex. One could see that they were pushing their individual cultivation bases to the absolute limits!

”It's admirable but reckless,” Shi Yan calmly stated before he disappeared like a ghost. When he reappeared, Tao and Bai Lufeng were held by the necks by his two hands. Their expressions were filled with confusion and restlessness. Bai Lufeng was even emitting faint traces of killing intent, but Tao was relatively calmer.

Only after Shi Yan explained the inter-heavenly spatial formation's dangers did they calm down. After learning that they wouldn't be able to traverse the inter-heavenly spatial formation, they could only hope that Yan Zaizen would return, if he did enter.

The vortex stayed in the sky for an entire year before vanishing. During this year, Wang Li had exited the trials. When he did, he searched for Yan Zaizen, but learned that he had yet to exit the trial. However, when the trial officially ended and the vortex above closed, Wang Li realized that Yan Zaizen had likely been sent elsewhere. In the trials, it was common for inheritance bestowers to give requirements or send their claimers to other realms.

This was similar to Lang Xue situation. When she claimed the key to her inheritance, she had to travel the vast myriad realms, complete a trial to obtain an inheritance deposit, and then return to claim the official inheritance. This was common amongst inheritance trials, and thus, many assumed this was the case, including Zhou Xiuhei and Shi Yan.

Bai Lufeng looked to the skies, ”Be sure to come back soon, Young Lord.” His eyes were crystal clear and there were faint traces of profundity that seemed to resonate with all souls.

Tao's eyes were closed, his lips moving but no words were emitted. He was releasing a somber aura that had a tinge of slicing determination. If one read his lips from beginning to end, they would read, ”Brother, you went to sleep for three thousand years...regardless of how long you take, I'll be waiting to explore the myriad realms and more with you.”

Lang Xue stood behind Tao, her expression was calm. To her, Yan Zaizen had indirectly dealt with her issue. The Yun Clan underwent an immediate decline after the death of their patriarch, the collapse in the dao of their most talented genius, and Zhou Xiuhei's actions brought about by the Patriarch's intentions. Tao had, with the help of others, claimed her freedom and the freedom of her family. With his confidence and earnest pursuit, she had fallen for this man she didn't even deign to put in her eyes before.

All of these things, her freedom, her husband, and her current life was given to her by Yan Zaizen one way or another.

She wished to thank him at least once.

Ma Xiuren was the most conflicted. Yan Zaizen had essentially mind-controlled her unintentionally, and she never felt any romantic feelings for him, but she did owe him. Because of him, her plan of having sufficient time to prepare was still met despite his premature arrival. Not only that, it lasted for three thousand years! This was a huge boon to her achievements obtained from the Earthly Beginning Trial. With this, she had sufficient confidence in growing her force from henceforth!

Now that he had suddenly vanished, she felt a complex array of emotions. She could only pray that he will one day return so that she may properly thank him.

Zhou Xiuhei and Shi Yan stood shoulder to shoulder in the vast outer space of their realm, their eyes looking at the endless space before them.

”He will return,” Shi Yan calmly stated.

”I know,” Zhou Xiuhei replied. To him, Yan Zaizen was more than just a cultivator that traveled the same path. He felt a sort of kinship that he had never experienced before, and he couldn't help but be worried. However, he believed that when Yan Zaizen did return, he would bring no small amount of awe!
