233: Tiangong completed

Xun Xiuyuan arrived at the entrance of Wen Ruyu's secret realm in Flying Dragon City and used the leaf in his hand to open the secret realm.

After the secret realm opened, Xie Nanqiao emerged from it shortly after.

Her pouting little mouth immediately changed expression upon seeing Xun Xiuyuan, breaking into a smile.

"Are you done with your work?"

Actually, Xun Xiuyuan hadn't been gone for long, barely more than ten days.

However, Xie Nanqiao had already spent four months in the secret realm.

Xun Xiuyuan nodded: "For now, I'm done. I'm preparing for the Heavenly Palace's establishment ceremony."

Xie Nanqiao looked at Xun Xiuyuan's expression and asked curiously: "Did something happen?"

The grim look on Xun Xiuyuan's face was precisely because Xie Nanqiao's question reminded him of Wei Tieshan, who had died protecting him.

Xun Xiuyuan sat on the ground beside the secret realm, even pulling out a gourd and taking a sip of wine, saying: "Old Wei died."

The gourd in Xun Xiuyuan's hand was precisely the one Old Wei had given him; Old Wei had always loved to drink.

Xie Nanqiao had a deep impression of that tower-like man, and she knew that Wei Tieshan had come to help during the incredibly difficult times in the Cage Domain.

Seeing Xun Xiuyuan's state, Xie Nanqiao felt a pang of heartache. She sat beside Xun Xiuyuan and leaned on his shoulder.

Xun Xiuyuan rested his head on Xie Nanqiao's head and whispered: "I was too arrogant. Old Wei shouldn't have died."

Xie Nanqiao shook her head, which made Xun Xiuyuan's cheek itch. He turned to look at Xie Nanqiao: "Why are you shaking your head?"

"Because you're wrong. If one day I die for you, it has nothing to do with you. It's because I'm willing to do it from the bottom of my heart. Old Wei must have felt the same way."

Xie Nanqiao's words were simple, and Xun Xiuyuan understood them, but as long as Xuan Yue wasn't killed, there would always be a thorn in his heart.

The other members of the War God Hall had already mobilized fully, searching for Xuan Yue's traces throughout the entire Great World.

However, Xuan Yue was a God King after all, and finding her was like searching for a needle in a haystack, incredibly difficult.

Actually, Xun Xiuyuan had some guesses about Xuan Yue's whereabouts. The greatest possibility was the Extraterritorial Battlefield, a place where the War God Hall couldn't act as it pleased.

Next were the secret realms, but which one was hard to say, as there were simply too many secret realms in the Great Barren World.

Thinking of this, Xun Xiuyuan sighed helplessly.

He took out a prepared spatial ring and gave it to Xie Nanqiao.

"Inside are longswords for the Heavenly God Realm, and also some Law Comprehension Pills. You can take them when you feel a bottleneck."

Xie Nanqiao took the spatial ring that Xun Xiuyuan handed her and smiled: "I don't have any bottlenecks for now."

Xun Xiuyuan carefully checked Xie Nanqiao's realm.

"I remember your previous advancements were very fast. This time you're still in the True God Realm, and I thought you had reached a bottleneck."

"No, I'm just comprehending other Laws. Advancing to Heavenly God can happen at any time. Didn't they say that the more Laws a Heavenly God comprehends, the stronger they are? I plan to comprehend more, and reach a very powerful Heavenly God in one go."

Xun Xiuyuan smiled, looking at the serious Xie Nanqiao.

Finally, Xun Xiuyuan asked Xie Nanqiao if she wanted to return to Xiuyuan City to rest for a while, but Xie Nanqiao refused.

Then, she entered that secret realm again.

Ling Yun appeared again, his voice still coming from behind Xun Xiuyuan.

"This secret realm is very strange, isn't it?"

Xun Xiuyuan was speechless at this 'sixth brother': "You weren't eavesdropping the whole time, were you?"

Ling Yun's old face flushed: "I came over as soon as I sensed this secret realm opening. I wasn't eavesdropping. I don't know anything you two said."

Xun Xiuyuan looked at Ling Yun's expression and knew that this old man had been there for a long time.

He still asked, puzzled: "Is there anything special about this secret realm?"

Ling Yun looked at the secret realm entrance, which had already disappeared, with a puzzled expression: "The aura of the Law of Time. This secret realm has the aura of the Law of Time. Although I haven't comprehended the Law of Time yet, I have encountered it."

Xun Xiuyuan was startled. Right.

One day outside, ten days inside the secret realm. It was clear that this secret realm contained the Law of Time.

If it wasn't created by a powerful figure who had comprehended the Law of Time, it was likely formed by a secret treasure related to the Law of Time.

But for him, it was useless, as he couldn't comprehend Laws.

Xun Xiuyuan then informed Ling Yun about the situation of this secret realm.

Ling Yun laughed upon hearing it: "Such a small secret realm? Then it's probably a fragment, not very useful."

After speaking, Ling Yun suddenly disappeared again.

Xun Xiuyuan was already powerless to complain about this second senior brother, feeling he was a bit like Bi Qing from before, appearing and disappearing unpredictably.

Since the War God Hall's two displays of power in the Exotic Beast Clan's territory, one against the Xuan Yue Wolf Clan and one against Ao Tian, although they happened at the same time,

for the outside world, they were two separate events.

After the results of these two events spread throughout the entire Great Desolate World, the southern part of the Chaotic Realm, which was the area occupied by the Heavenly Palace, became completely quiet.

No more assassinations, reconnaissance, or other such incidents occurred.

Xun Xiuyuan also, for the first time since transmigrating, truly spent two months leisurely.

He accompanied his wife, held his child, and enjoyed the joys of family life.

On this day, Xun Xiuyuan was still playing with Ji Yunshu.

At this time, Ji Yunshu was already able to interact well with Xun Xiuyuan, and Xun Xiuyuan was tirelessly enjoying it.

Every day, he would take Ji Yunshu out for strolls.

Chen Li arrived at Xiuyuan City and came to Xun Xiuyuan's residence.

Xun Xiuyuan handed Ji Yunshu to Bai Xiaoou, then received Chen Li in the main hall.

"Grandpa Chen, what do you need me for? Wouldn't a sound transmission talisman suffice?"

Xun Xiuyuan was making tea for Chen Li, his hands not stopping, as he asked casually.

Chen Li took out a miniature palace. The miniature palace, suspended in the air, slowly rotated.

Xun Xiuyuan looked at the palace and said: "It's finished?"

Chen Li nodded: "It was supposed to be finished earlier, but Senior Ling Yun said the defenses weren't enough, so he personally added many grand formations to the palace. That's why it's only now completed."

Chen Li pointed to the plaza in front of the miniature palace and said: "The establishment ceremony will be held in the plaza. We are still refining the specific items needed."

Xun Xiuyuan nodded: "Then, is it time to set the date for the establishment ceremony?"

Chen Li nodded: "Yes, not only that, but we also need to send out invitations to invite the major powers to observe the ceremony."

Xun Xiuyuan said: "Then let's make it one month from now."

Chen Li originally wasn't too concerned about the time, and now seeing Xun Xiuyuan set it, he nodded.

Then he asked another question: "Do we need to discuss this with the people from the War God Hall?"

Xun Xiuyuan shook his head: "No need. We'll ignore how they decide for now. I just need to tell second senior brother about this."

Seeing this, Chen Li said no more and immediately went to prepare.

Xun Xiuyuan instantly teleported to Chen Sheng's Academy of Dao Propagation and found Ling Yun, who was currently teaching a class.
