Chapter 644: People Come From All Directions to Pay Their Respects

The inter-realm teleportation portal in Shatter City was still under construction.

Therefore, Nie Tian still couldn’t use it to return to the Realm of Flame Heaven to meet Wu Ji yet.

Meanwhile, the cleansing operation in the Realm of Mystic Heaven was still ongoing. Worldly realm and Profound realm experts from the major sects were hunting down the remaining outsiders to reap their spoils.

Qi warriors in the Realm of Split Void had also heard about this.

However, considering their status and strength, they wouldn’t be allowed to split the spoils with the major sects even if the inter-realm teleportation portal was fully functional.

After receiving Zhen Huilan’s notification, the members of the Wild Fire, the Blood Skull, and the Dark Moon who had fled to remote, desolate corners of the Realm of Split Void had returned to their old headquarters.

Then, as Li Ye unintentionally spread the word that Nie Tian had returned to Shatter City, Cai Lan, the head of the Blood Skull, came to visit Nie Tian with his son, Cai Yuan, and his daughter, Cai Yue.

As soon as they arrived. Cai Lan presented a ring of holding that was filled with all sorts of spiritual materials and spirit stones to Nie Tian, and said that it was to thank him for what he had done.

Nie Tian briefly examined the contents of the ring with a wisp of his psychic awareness, and discovered that it was stocked with fire-attributed and wood-attributed spiritual materials, as well as some Star Stones.

Apparently, Cai Lan knew what Nie Tian needed and had gathered a careful selection before coming.

Afterwards, Cai Lan said that, as long as Nie Tian continued to acknowledge his identity as the Blood Skull’s guest elder, the Blood Skull would be happy to give him thirty percent of their annual income as remuneration.

After the recent messy incident in the Realm of Split Void, Cai Lan now had a clear understanding that if they didn’t have a Soul realm expert to back them, whatever they accumulated in Shatter City could all be wiped out very easily.

If a similar incident happened again, and powerful experts descended upon the Realm of Split Void again, the Blood Skull and Shatter City would fall victim to their unfair treatment again.

In Cai Lan’s eyes, Nie Tian would be a perfect backer.

As long as people knew that Nie Tian was still the Blood Skull’s guest elder, even if he didn’t stay in Shatter City at all times, those who wanted to undermine the Blood Skull would have to think twice before making their moves.

Because of this, both Cai Yuan, who had gone through a lot with Nie Tian, and Cai Yue, who had rather resented Nie Tian, behaved very cautiously this time.

Like Li Ye, Cai Yuan and Cai Yue had both been arranged to wait out the crisis in the Spirit Condor’s headquarters.

They had returned with Li Ye.

Looking at Nie Tian, Cai Yuan sighed inwardly, as he suddenly realized that inviting Nie Tian to be their guest elder was the wisest decision he had made his whole life.

Cai Yue, who had never like Nie Tian and almost fought him over the use of the Blood Skull’s cultivation rooms, started to look at Nie Tian with a admiring and respectful look in her eyes.

At this point, Nie Tian no longer wore a mask.

Even the Heaven Palace Sect and Xia Yi hadn’t dared to harm him. Who else in the Domain of the Falling Stars would he feel the need to hide his identity from?

After expressing his sincere gratitude, Cai Lan left with his children.

Soon after he left, the heads of the Dark Moon and the Wild Fire came to visit Nie Tian with a number of their members.

Like Cai Lan, they both presented gifts and expressed their gratitude.

Compared to the gifts from Cai Lan, there were even more valuables in the rings of holding they gave Nie Tian.

According to them, if Nie Tian hadn’t set the stage for the human alliance’s victory in the Realm of Mystic Heaven, they would still have been cowering in remote areas and losing members to mutant spirit beasts.

As long as there were still outsiders garrisoned the Void Illusion Mountain Range, they wouldn’t have dared to come out from hiding.

However, Nie Tian had solved their problem by ending the crisis in the Realm of Mystic Heaven.

Hu Han and Fu Heng from the Wild Fire were among the visitors that came to see him.

They also thanked Nie Tian, saying that they perhaps wouldn’t have lived to this point if Nie Tian hadn’t left them those spirit stones.

Pei Qiqi and Li Ye had hostile looks in their eyes when they saw Hu Han. Upon meeting their gazes, Hu Han expressed her gratitude repeatedly and remained very humble. Even though Pei Qiqi and Li Ye didn’t hold her responsible for her deeds, they gave her some nasty glares.
