The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor
Chapter 616 - 615: Setting Off

Chapter 616: Chapter 615: Setting Off

"We can finally go to the East Desolate Domain!"

After leaving the Emperor Immortal Sect, everyone was thrilled, feeling a sense of freedom as though the sky was vast enough for birds to soar and the sea was broad enough for fish to leap.

When young, they always yearned for the outside world.

This was the case for most young people.

Whether it was Lv Xiuli or Zhu Xiaofei and the others, the furthest they had ever traveled was previously following Ye Xuan to the Southern Ghost Tomb, which was the farthest they had gone in their lives.

This time, the place they stepped out of was not just the Emperor Immortal Sect but the entire Southern Domain!

Apart from the team leader, Sword Saint Ning Zongtang, none of the others had ever been to the East Desolate.

Even Mu Baicheng, who was at the very end, had never set foot in the East Desolation Domain.

Mu Baicheng was the foremost among the three Supreme Elders of the Emperor Immortal Sect, his strength even comparable to Zhou Zihuang, yet he had spent his entire life in the Southern Domain.

The Southern Domain was vast, and many people could never see its entirety in their lifetime.

Compared to the whole of the East Desolate, the Southern Domain was but a small stone.

Therefore, to traverse the entire East Desolation Domain was very, very challenging.

Being able to step into the East Desolate was extremely exciting for many disciples of the Emperor Immortal Sect.

Even Mu Baicheng himself was quite excited, but he thought of more, so he didn’t show it.

He profoundly understood that there were all kinds of conflicts within the Southern Domain, and as a much larger East Desolation Domain, cruel struggles were definitely inevitable.

This time, they might even encounter people from the Fierce Battle Sect or Qianyuan Cave Heaven again.

Thus, it was better to stay vigilant and not get carried away.

That was what Mu Baicheng thought.

It must be said, the longer one lived, the differently they viewed things, and their reactions were completely different.

Likewise, as the leader of the team, Sword Saint Ning Zongtang had another set of thoughts.

Compared to others, he was not too excited, his eyes slightly lost as if recalling something.

East Desolation Domain...

Four words so distant yet so close.

Due to the history of the Emperor Immortal Sect, Ning Zongtang always had complicated feelings about the East Desolation Domain.

The glorious land of the Emperor Immortal Sect was in Zhongxuan Mountain of the East Desolation Domain.

At its peak, there was the ancestor Lie Tian Great Emperor, along with the other two ancestors, War Demon Hong Yuan and Sword Emperor Xuanyuan, and the ten Emperor Generals, who battled across the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds.

Now in decline, the Emperor Immortal Sect couldn’t even return to Zhongxuan Mountain.

Although Ye Xuan said that the Sect Leader of the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect had personally intervened, asking the Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect to cede Zhongxuan Mountain,

But Ning Zongtang knew very well that such matters were far from being as simple as a mere word.

Otherwise, the Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect wouldn’t have remained silent up to now.

’Well, it seems we’ll need to make a trip to the Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect,’ Ning Zongtang adjusted his old cape, squinted his eyes, and sat on the mouth of a gourd, sipping old wine with a satisfied look on his face.

The Bitter Crossing Wine recommended by Ye Xuan really packed a punch.

The martial world should indeed have both wine and swords!

It’s worth mentioning that for this journey, the people of the Emperor Immortal Sect did not use a Spirit Boat, but instead, they rode on a magic artifact.

This artifact was Ning Zongtang’s personal belonging, a White Jade Gourd.

Ning Zongtang sat cross-legged on the mouth of the gourd.

This White Jade Gourd was enlarged greatly by Ning Zongtang, not to mention three hundred people, even three thousand people could fit.

On the smaller gourd bulb in front, only Zhou Youwei and Zhou Bingyi were seated.

Their positions in the Emperor Immortal Sect were extraordinary, so they were closest to Ning Zongtang.

In case of an emergency, Ning Zongtang could rescue them first.

"Sister, do you plan to continue cultivating until we reach the East Desolation Domain?" Zhou Bingyi, seated cross-legged beside her, propped her elbows on her knees, her jade hands supporting her chin, staring blankly at Zhou Youwei.

Zhou Bingyi, wearing a purple robe, had a different kind of beauty.

After the initial excitement subdued, Zhou Bingyi found it quite boring.

However, her sister began meditating as soon as she boarded the White Jade Gourd, which made Zhou Bingyi rather bored.

Out of boredom, Zhou Bingyi could only stare blankly at Zhou Youwei.

For some reason, Zhou Bingyi felt that her sister was becoming more and more beautiful and wondered what that stinky brother-in-law had done to her sister.

Zhou Bingyi’s thoughts kept drifting, eventually floating to the East Desolation Domain.

"I don’t even know what my stinky brother-in-law is up to now..." Zhou Bingyi sighed.

She felt that the days with her brother-in-law were somehow more interesting.

That was because he always talked about many things she had never heard before.

For instance, within the Hengduan Mountain, a notorious forbidden area in the East Desolation, her brother-in-law said that there were actually creatures living there; it was just that these creatures were somewhat bizarre.

He said every time the Hengduan Mountain opened, some extraordinary people and events would emerge.

Coffin Carriers, Corpse Carriers, Paper Machers.

Zhou Bingyi had never heard of such things before.

But coming from her brother-in-law, they seemed absolutely real.

This made Zhou Bingyi very curious, and she wanted to hurry to the Hengduan Mountain to see for herself.

However, just thinking about the half-month journey to the Hengduan Mountain gave her a headache.

"Bingyi."

Just as Zhou Bingyi was needlessly adding to her own troubles, a melodious and pleasant voice sounded.

"Ah? Sister," Zhou Bingyi came back to her senses and looked at Zhou Youwei, who had just stopped her cultivation.

At that moment, Zhou Youwei, dressed simply in white robes and sitting there, still seemed utterly ethereal.

Her naturally beautiful face, unadorned with makeup, remained unmatched.

Her bright eyes and white teeth, high nose bridge, and features as if painted on canvas, completed with a small teardrop mole at the corner of her eye, added to her beauty, truly meriting her status as one of the Three Great Goddesses of the Southern Domain.

Her three thousand locks of black hair cascaded down to her waist like a waterfall.

Zhou Youwei looked at her younger sister and smiled helplessly, her dimple making her look quite charming as she softly said, "Your brother-in-law said you are very talented. Given time, your accomplishments will certainly not be low."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Bingyi pouted and said, "Cultivation is really boring, you know, Sis? Sometimes I really think you’re not human, constantly cultivating like this, doesn’t it get monotonous?"

After saying this, Zhou Bingyi felt something was off and explained, "I mean, Sister, you’re just too abnormal..."

"Hmm... that’s not right either, it’s just that you’re really impressive," she added.

Zhou Youwei couldn’t help but laugh softly and said, "Bingyi, don’t forget the responsibilities we carry. Since you and I are the First and Second Princesses of the Emperor Immortal Sect, we must shoulder the responsibility of revitalizing the Emperor Immortal Sect."

"And in this world, to achieve anything, you must have strength."

Zhou Youwei’s expression grew serious as she continued, "You might think that the Emperor Immortal Sect has already become the overlord of the Southern Domain, but that’s just the beginning. The Emperor Immortal Sect was once located at Zhongxuan Mountain in the East Desolation Domain, and we must take it back."

"And the one currently occupying Zhongxuan Mountain is the top overlord of East Desolate, the Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect."

"So, do you understand now..."

Zhou Youwei looked at Zhou Bingyi.

Zhou Bingyi blinked, admitting defeat and said dejectedly, "Sister, I understand what you’re saying, but my cultivation isn’t strong enough. Every time something happens, I can’t do anything; I can only watch you and brother-in-law..."

Zhou Youwei pursed her attractive lips, her eyes shimmering, and asked, "What if one day, both your brother-in-law and I were gone?"

Zhou Bingyi abruptly looked up at Zhou Youwei, showing a nervous expression, "Sister, I got what you’re saying, I’ll start cultivating right away!"

Having said that, Zhou Bingyi took out the Heavenly Spirit Book and began to cultivate.

It must be said that Zhou Bingyi was truly talented, for in just a moment, she entered the state of cultivation.

By now, Zhou Bingyi had already advanced to the Cave Heaven Realm, progressing very rapidly.

Seeing Zhou Bingyi instantly immerse herself in cultivation, Zhou Youwei couldn’t help but smile wryly.

This little sister of hers.

"Little Youwei, you’re only two years older than little Bingyi, why put on such an old and serious front?" The voice of Sword Saint Ning Zongtang came from ahead, his tone teasing.

Zhou Youwei looked into the distance, a slight smile on her lips as she softly said, "Probably because of my husband..."

In the distance.

Ye Xuan, who had just left Mo Family Divine City, sneezed and casually rubbed his nose, muttering, "Could it be that Youwei is thinking about me."

Ye Xuan looked in the direction of the Emperor Immortal Sect.

After a while, he withdrew his gaze.

By his calculations, Youwei and the others should have already set off.

In half a month, they’d probably reach the Hengduan Mountain.

But before that, he too needed to set out early to visit the Red Sparrow Institute and take away the True Bone of the little Red Sparrow.

The Red Sparrow Institute was conveniently on the way to the Hengduan Mountain.
