Su Qingluo now held lofty status and possessed overwhelming power; the entire expanse of the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds was no longer within her regard.
As for Ye Yunfei, whether in terms of status or strength, he was akin to an ant on the ground in her eyes—utterly beneath notice. She could hardly imagine herself having been together with such an insignificant fellow.
Moreover, her cultivation had reached the legendary realm of Supreme Detachment, where sentiments of romantic love mattered little to her. Her sole ambition was to ascend further on the martial path.
However, she discovered that Ye Yunfei's figure remained stubbornly etched deep within her heart, refusing to fade. She tried various methods, employing many sophisticated secret arts specifically designed to sever the threads of karma, yet she remained unable to erase the image Ye Yunfei had left in the depths of her soul.
This left her feeling deeply helpless and bewildered.
"Perhaps only the law of time can slowly sever this ill-fated bond between him and me," Su Qingluo sighed inwardly.
"Palace Master, the Patriarch believes the time is ripe. He bids you enter the Samsara Cave as soon as possible to cultivate the ninth layer of the Cycle Reincarnation Art. Once the ninth layer is achieved, you can attain the Mortal Deity Fruit Position. At that point, your cultivation will be considered complete with merit, truly enabling you to lead our Reincarnation Palace to become the master of this great world!"
At this moment, an old woman appeared before Su Qingluo and spoke to her in an excited tone.
"Very well," Su Qingluo stood up and nodded in reply.
"Palace Master, you seem slightly distracted, as if something is weighing on your mind. This state is not conducive to cultivating the ninth layer of the Cycle Reincarnation Art, and even less conducive to assailing the Mortal Deity Fruit Position.
Palace Master, forgive this subordinate for speaking out of turn, but with your status and position, nothing in the mundane mortal world is worthy of your lingering thoughts. It is best for the Palace Master to utterly forget trivial people and matters; only then will it benefit your cultivation," the old woman scrutinized Su Qingluo and said meaningfully.
"My affairs are none of your concern," Su Qingluo said coldly, her tone sending a chill down the spine.
"I dare not," the old woman hastily bowed her head, replying respectfully.
"I will enter the Samsara Cave now," Su Qingluo took a step forward and vanished in an instant.
After Su Qingluo left, the old woman's gaze turned icy, revealing a strong, murderous intent.
"A mere ant from the mortal world has actually caused our Palace Master such great trouble. Hmph! Simply unforgivable!
No, this cannot continue. If things go on like this, that ant will inevitably affect the Palace Master's cultivation eventually. The Palace Master is the hope of our Reincarnation Palace; we absolutely cannot allow an insignificant ant to hold her back!
Palace Master, even if you blame me in the future, I will take action to eliminate this ant and completely sever the karmic thread between you and that vermin!"
At the same time, in the Canghuang Realm...
Ye Yunfei and Hun Lao ceased their divination.
"Let's return to the Primordial Continent," Ye Yunfei stood up and said to Hun Lao.
Afterwards, Ye Yunfei selected another group of personnel from within the Qingyun Palace to take to the Primordial Continent.
After all, the Primordial Continent was an advanced world; both its energy and the laws of heaven and earth were far superior to those of the Canghuang Realm. Martial artists cultivating there would undoubtedly achieve much greater accomplishments than within the Canghuang Realm.
Ye Yunfei discussed with the Qingyun Palace's upper echelons and decided that from now on, they would select a group of Qingyun Palace personnel to send to the Primordial Continent for cultivation at regular intervals.
The Teleportation Altar connecting the Canghuang Realm to the Primordial Continent would ensure Qingyun Palace's people could travel freely between the two.
Not long after, Ye Yunfei stepped onto the Teleportation Altar deep within the old headquarters of the Tianyou Tomb, activated it, and prepared to depart.
"Uncle, remember to come back and see me often," the little girl (the Canghuang Origin spirit) said reluctantly.
"Don't worry, I will return to see you frequently," Ye Yunfei patted the girl's head and said with a smile.
Soon after, Ye Yunfei returned to the Ziwei Sect headquarters and found Sect Leader Liu. He informed the Sect Leader that groups of Qingyun Palace personnel would arrive periodically from now on and asked him to settle them properly.
"Alright, Ye Yunfei, rest assured. I will arrange this matter from now on," Sect Leader Liu nodded. He knew the Qingyun Palace was an organization personally founded by Ye Yunfei, so of course he would not dare neglect it.
"Kid, when do you plan to leave the Primordial Continent?" the Mysterious Turtle suddenly appeared before Ye Yunfei and asked.
He had long anticipated that Ye Yunfei would soon depart the Primordial Continent, for Ye Yunfei was now de facto the number one figure there!
"Very soon," Ye Yunfei replied.
"Then, have you decided where to go?" the Mysterious Turtle asked again.
"The Feixian Continent," Ye Yunfei thought for a moment and stated.
After deliberation during this period, Ye Yunfei had decided that upon leaving the Primordial Continent, he would first go to the Feixian Continent.
Originally, Ye Yunfei had two choices: the Feixian Continent or the Xianling World. However, considering that the Heavenly God Palace was located within the Xianling World and was one of its most powerful forces, Ye Yunfei going there would easily come to the attention of the Heavenly God Palace members.
Ye Yunfei understood that his current strength was still somewhat insufficient to confront the Heavenly God Palace.
Thus, after consideration, Ye Yunfei decided on the Feixian Continent.
"The Feixian Continent is a good place. In years past, the true headquarters of our Ziwei Sect was located there," the Mysterious Turtle nodded.
"I know," Ye Yunfei nodded.
The Feixian Continent was one of the core worlds among the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds. The Ziwei Sect's former headquarters had been there, and it had once been one of the most powerful forces on the Feixian Continent. However, after encountering a great calamity, the Ziwei Great Emperor relocated the sect's headquarters back to the Eastern Barrens of the Primordial Continent.
"As far as I know, Zisheng Zhenjun most likely went to the Feixian Continent to investigate the whereabouts of the Ziwei Great Emperor," the Mysterious Turtle suddenly said.
"What?
Senior Mysterious Turtle, how do you know Zisheng Zhenjun's whereabouts? Is this true?" Hearing this, Ye Yunfei was somewhat shocked.
Ever since coming to the Primordial Continent, Ye Yunfei had been paying attention to Zisheng Zhenjun's whereabouts, but no one within the Ziwei Sect knew where he had gone.
Now, the Mysterious Turtle had suddenly uttered such words.
"I have been in the Ancestral Temple all this time and inadvertently captured some traces of information left by Zisheng Zhenjun. Before leaving the headquarters, he had stayed in the Ancestral Temple for a period. He once mentioned to the tablets of our ancestors that he was going to the Feixian Continent to seek the Ziwei Great Emperor's whereabouts.
By chance, I captured some recorded images and sounds concerning Zisheng Zhenjun stored within the ancestors' tablets and heard his voice.
Zisheng Zhenjun has spent his entire life striving to find the Ziwei Great Emperor's whereabouts. He has truly toiled hard," the Mysterious Turtle explained.
"In that case, Zisheng Zhenjun might be within the Feixian Continent!" Ye Yunfei felt a surge of excitement.
One must know that in his previous life, Zisheng Zhenjun had been Ye Yunfei's master, and moreover, his savior. Of course, Ye Yunfei cared about his whereabouts!
