Heroes' Prison-Chapter 1154 - 1093: Xiao Chunzi Ascends to the Heavenly Realm
After chatting with Lord Bai Yue for a while, Huang Yi left the City Lord’s Mansion.
Just as he exited the mansion’s gate, he suddenly received a message. Upon opening it, it turned out to be from Xiao Chunzi, who he hadn’t seen for many days—
"Brother! Brother! I received a message from the guild system saying that Moonlight City in Central Continent is now our city! I teleported immediately, and now I’m at the Teleport Plaza in Moonlight City! Where are you? Come play with me!"
After Huang Yi became the "World Guardian," he set the top members of the Hero Empire and his family and friends, such as Qin Shiyu, Xiao Chunzi, Heavenly Dao, Thunder God, Dao Feng, and others, as "World Enforcers," enabling them to teleport across continents at any time.
However, others’ cross-continent teleports are mostly for business convenience, while only Xiao Chunzi goes everywhere to play.
"Alright! I’ll be right there!" Huang Yi thought for a moment and ultimately agreed to Xiao Chunzi.
He was busy with various matters every day, having no time to rest, and had neglected Xiao Chunzi for a long time. It’s good to accompany her for a while today.
Huang Yi shot into the sky, transforming into a streak of light as he flew toward the Teleport Plaza in Moonlight City.
Soon, he arrived at the Teleport Plaza, which was packed with people, but he still spotted Xiao Chunzi among the sea of people at a glance.
The crowd was continuously flowing, with people brushing past each other, but Xiao Chunzi quietly stood amidst the crowd, gazing at the sky without moving, her silhouette somewhat lonely.
In the crowded throng, she seemed like an elf that could vanish at any moment, unable to find a trace of existence.
Compared to two years ago, Xiao Chunzi had grown from a little girl into a young maiden, becoming increasingly beautiful, to the point where, like Qin Shiyu, she often needed to wear a mask to conveniently walk outside.
Huang Yi had less and less time to accompany her. Many times, when Xiao Chunzi logged on to find herself alone, she would log off immediately.
In the real world, she was also lonely, with her parents often abroad, living alone in a large, empty house, not knowing how she spent those lonely times.
Huang Yi quietly descended beside Xiao Chunzi, joining her in gazing at the sky and asked, "What are you looking at?"
"It’s been three months since Dad last flew abroad!" Xiao Chunzi murmured, staring at the sky without blinking.
Suddenly, she seemed to snap back, recognizing Huang Yi’s voice, and her absent-minded eyes instantly regained their spark.
She quickly turned to look at Huang Yi, then dove into his arms, shaking her little head, her twin pigtails swinging back and forth, and she said coquettishly, "Brother, you finally came! I missed you so much!"
Huang Yi embraced her soft and petite body, feeling her heartbeat, finding peace in his heart, with all the noise and slaughter fading away, leaving only purity and beauty.
When he’s with Xiao Chunzi, he suddenly feels as if he’s shed the identity of the God of Slaughter, returning to being a regular person, able to open his heart.
The higher one’s position, the fewer people there are to talk to.
The more one is in the spotlight, the lonelier one’s heart feels.
Both Huang Yi and Xiao Chunzi were lonely—Xiao Chunzi’s loneliness stemmed from a lack of people around, while Huang Yi’s loneliness stemmed from having too many people around.
"There are too many people here, let’s go to the Tower of Pantheons!" After speaking, Huang Yi formed a team with Xiao Chunzi and teleported to the 275th layer of the Tower of Pantheons’ five-person mode.
Now, Huang Yi essentially stopped grinding the Tower of Pantheons. His level was too high and he was a Divine Class, requiring too much experience to level up. The ordinary monsters inside the Tower of Pantheons gave too little experience, unlike the outside bosses, where killing them still granted low experience. Even grinding for one or two months couldn’t get him up a single level.
As for world records, only the world record for the 290th layer of the Tower of Pantheons remained unbroken. The bosses inside were at the Ascension Stage, extremely powerful, especially the final boss, with a level of 300 at the Demigod Level, which even Thunder God couldn’t defeat using a Finished Divine Artifact.
Currently, Huang Yi’s only way to level up is through items that directly increase level or by killing bosses with strength far surpassing his own.
Yet, Xiao Chunzi’s level is still very low, not even reaching the Heavenly Domain Level. Huang Yi brought her to grind the 275th layer of the Tower of Pantheons, making her level up quickly.
As soon as they entered the Tower of Pantheons, the noise at their ears instantly faded away, the sea of people was isolated outside, leaving only Huang Yi and Xiao Chunzi inside.
"Hold on tight!" Cold Storage lifted Xiao Chunzi up, flapping the Wings of Death on his back, and flew towards the group of monsters ahead.
The raging sea of fire cascaded down, engulfing thousands of small monsters, and all the massive amount of experience points gained from leveling-up fell onto Xiao Chunzi.
Cold Storage set the experience points ratio to be 100% for Xiao Chunzi. One sea of fire was equivalent to several days’ worth of hard leveling for an average person.
"Brother, whenever I see the sea of fire, I think of the legs of the Harbinger of Doomsday at the bottom of Bai Long Lake!" Xiao Chunzi lay in Cold Storage’s arms, hugging his neck, and said as she watched the sea of fire below.
Cold Storage also thought of the past when the broken legs of the Harbinger of Doomsday were suppressed at the bottom of Bai Long Lake. Later, he solved this problem and obtained the first Legendary Equipment among players—"Harbinger of Doomsday’s Footprints."
"Those were happy times! Back then, brother wasn’t as powerful as now; there were no subordinates, no Hero Guild, no Heroism Religion, no Hero Empire, nothing at all, but you could always be by my side," Xiao Chunzi said, pouting her small mouth, her eyes suddenly glistening with tears, "But later, brother became busier, and had less time for me. Long ago, mom and dad were the same. Then they had not made any money, but could spend time with me frequently. But later, after they earned a lot of money, time spent together became scarce. Mom and dad also weren’t often together. Last time dad came back and asked if I wanted a new mom. I wanted to ask mom what was going on, but she hasn’t been home for six months, and I can’t reach her on the phone. Sometimes, during school vacations, while my classmates go home, I’m alone in the dormitory, unsure of what to do. But when I get home, I’m still alone, not knowing where to go, just wanting to log on to find you to play, but you’re often unavailable. Then I could only play with Little Wang, play a while and then log off, go outside to eat alone, and take naps. Sometimes waking up, the sunlight shines into an empty room from the window, with no sounds in my ears, as if I’m the only one left in the world."
Xiao Chunzi continued, resting her head in Cold Storage’s arms: "Sometimes, I often think if only I was still sick, that way I could have mom and dad keep me in cold storage waiting for medical technology to advance. Then I’d have a reason to stay in The Second World every day, waiting for you to log on, to fight together with you, to venture across the world. My level will rise very high, I won’t hold you back, and I can help you."
"I’m sorry, I neglected you," Cold Storage said guiltily, touching Xiao Chunzi’s forehead.
"You don’t have to apologize." Xiao Chunzi stretched out her small hand, blocking Cold Storage’s mouth, "I know you certainly have very important things to do. Many people on the forum say you’re a terrorist, but I don’t believe that; I think you’re a great hero, heroes shouldn’t be locked in prison. I hope one day you can get out. I promise I’ll be waiting at the gate of Rose Prison to see you walk out in person."
"That day will come!" Cold Storage smiled.
Next, the two chatted while flying through the sky.
Cold Storage didn’t need to use Wrath of the Godslayer to attack the monsters, he just leisurely flapped the Wings of Death, and the sea of fire automatically took care of the monsters around him.
Some Elite Monsters with high health wouldn’t burn to death immediately, and would vigorously struggle, wielding swords, and charging swiftly towards Cold Storage.
Cold Storage agilely maneuvered in the air, drawing a graceful trajectory amid the torrential blood and fire, dodging sword attacks, all while joking with Xiao Chunzi.
Just one hour later, Cold Storage completed ten instances of the Tower of Pantheons, bringing Xiao Chunzi’s level up to 190, only 10 levels away from the Heavenly Domain Level.
"Let’s level you up to two hundred today! I’ll go to the auction house to buy Magic Pills for you!" Cold Storage said and then teleported out with Xiao Chunzi. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖
Moonlight City has a large chain auction house affiliated with the Central Commerce Alliance, where various items could be bought.
During the recent invasion of The Second World by the Seven Archdemons, countless Holy Domain Demons perished, dropping a vast amount of Magic Pills, allowing players to level up quickly.
Now, the mainstream player level has basically reached the Primary Heavenly Domain Level. They’ve hunted down demons of the Holy Domain Rank, and no longer need their Magic Pills, putting them up for high-priced auction, but these "high prices" are just a drop in the bucket for Cold Storage, who bought them without even blinking.
Soon, Cold Storage bought all Magic Pills of Level 190-199 for Xiao Chunzi at the auction house.
Afterwards, he found a secluded place and handed over these Magic Pills to Xiao Chunzi.
"Sis, quickly eat these Magic Pills and level up to 200!" Cold Storage patted Xiao Chunzi’s head and said.
Xiao Chunzi wrinkled her little nose and pouted, "These things are dug out from monsters, so disgusting! But to power up and help you, I’ll eat them even if they’re gross!"
After saying that, Xiao Chunzi ate those Magic Pills one after another, her body glowed with beams of upgrade light.
When the last Level 199 Magic Pill was eaten, Xiao Chunzi’s level finally broke through two hundred, reaching the Heavenly Domain Level!
Cold Storage looked up, gazed at the sky, anticipating Xiao Chunzi’s Heavenly Phenomenon.
Even though Xiao Chunzi usually had a playful nature without any other strength accumulation, she shared the same Nefalem’s Bloodline as him, and would surely exhibit a very spectacular Heavenly Phenomenon.
