Reborn as a Hatrack in the Mystical Land-Chapter 979 - 97: King of the Senming Realm

At the southernmost tip of the Chen Plane, there lies a vast forest sea, where the sky is blue and the sunlight is radiant. It’s a rare pure land in the Chen Plane, known as the Senming Realm.

The Senming Realm is home to the Demon Clan’s peculiar tribe, the Chi Mei Clan, who are not fond of warfare.

The most common inhabitants here are the enchantingly beautiful Flower People and the Tree-men with astonishing vitality. They love peace and prefer cultivation, worshiping the Tree of Life planted in the royal court of the Senming Realm.

The Tree of Life has protected the Senming Realm for generations, making it eternally spring, with crops thriving and the people living in peace and prosperity.

Yet, it is this Tree of Life, whose lifespan is unknown, that has brought a huge catastrophe to the Chi Mei Clan.

The leaves of the Tree of Life are the best Elixir Pills, and the wine brewed from its flowers is sweet and tasty. But the most attractive part of the Tree of Life is its Life Fruit. The Life Fruit, shaped like a jujube pit, cannot be eaten but can be used to create empty ships and even warships.

These empty ships can even travel across the Plane Prohibition, reaching different planes.

Because of this Life Fruit, other ambitious members of the Demon Clan continuously harass the Chi Mei Clan, attempting to use the Life Fruit to build the strongest fleet of empty ship warships.

Over a hundred years ago, when Yue Chen was just a child, his clan suffered a massacre led by the Great Demon Concubine of the Demon Clan.

The Demon Clan invaded the royal court of the Chi Mei Clan overnight, slaughtering them and attempting to steal the Life Fruit.

Yue Chen’s parents and siblings perished in that catastrophe.

Facing the brutal Demon Clan invaders, Yue Chen’s father, the former Clan Leader of the Chi Mei Clan, toppled the Tree of Life and, using the last trace of Spiritual Power, used the Sky Sun Shuttle to send Yue Chen away.

During that crossing, Yue Chen was severely hurt and turned into a childlike appearance, yet was unexpectedly rescued by Yue Nian on the Canglong Continent, where he stayed at the Yue Residence for over ten years.

And Yue Jinghua became the only glimmer of life in his last years on the Canglong Continent.

But ever since over a hundred years ago, when the Young Clan Leader of the Chi Mei Clan, who had been adrift, returned, he led his people to replant the Tree of Life and then led them to repel the demon clans that coveted the Chi Mei Clan.

In the royal court of the Senming Realm, under the canopy-like Tree of Life, the young Clan Leader of the Chi Mei Clan, Yue Chen, sat desolately under the tree.

His eyes were dim, holding a pot of wine brewed from the Life Flower.

The inherently sweet and tasty Life Wine went down his throat like a knife cut.

How many letters was it, eight; he had written eight letters to Yue Jinghua.

The Senming Realm was isolated from the world, so much so that it was ignorant of significant events like the succession of the new Emperor Demon, not to mention the spectacular battle in Four Symbols City.

"Clan Leader," Ye Zi entered and, upon seeing, tried to snatch the wine from his hand.

The wine brewed from the Life Flower is a tonic, but after all, it’s wine, and drinking too much is not good for the body.

"If you continue drinking like this, Miss Yue will be unhappy when she sees you in this state," Ye Zi, compared to a hundred years ago, had matured a lot. Now, her beauty was so stunning that even the most beautiful flowers paled; the number of suitors within her clan was countless.

But Ye Zi had not agreed to anyone; she was waiting for Yue Chen, but Yue Chen was always thinking about the faraway plane’s Yue Jinghua.

Ye Zi felt a slight bitterness in her heart and handed over a letter that had just arrived via the Fiery Fire Stork to Yue Chen.

Yue Chen was momentarily stunned but then acted out of character, leaping up and snatching the letter as if it were a treasure.

If the Chi Mei Clan’s people saw Yue Chen in such a manner, they would be astonished.

"It’s her letter, it’s her letter, haha, I told you she’d be alright." Yue Chen rejoiced, cradling the letter.

But after he read the letter, his smile faded.

It turned out that so many events had transpired on the Canglong Continent over the past hundred years.

Mother... and Duke Xue Ying, the man who took him back to the Yue Residence, were all dead.

Even Jinghua had nine lives and almost perished on the Dimension Battlefield.

All of this, he did not know.

Yue Chen’s face was grave as he punched the ground, damning it; look at what he’s done all these years.

Because he received no letters, he had complained about Yue Jinghua; yet, who knew, she endured so much alone.

During the hundred years of dormancy, she had to endure the pain of losing family and friends all on her own.

"Ye Zi, open the Senming Road," after reading the letter, Yue Chen swept away his former decadence, washed up, and ordered Ye Zi to gather the people.

"Clan Leader? You want to reopen the Senming Road? But that is the rule left by the ancestors; the Senming Realm does not collude with the demon clans on the Chen Plane, which is why the Senming Road was permanently closed," the Senming Road, being the main road connecting the Senming Realm to other realms on the Chen Plane, is divided into three paths: land, sea, and air.

Opening these three roads signifies that the Senming Realm will once again establish contact with other Demon Worlds.

"If the ancestors’ rules remain unbroken, the Senming Realm cannot truly rise," Yue Jinghua’s letter clearly stated that she would come to the East Lin Sea on the Chen Plane, and after dealing with things there, she would detour to the Senming Realm. In her letter, she also mentioned that, if possible, she hoped Yue Chen could dispatch some Grass Soldiers and Tree Generals to the East Lin Sea area.

Hearing this, Ye Zi immediately gathered the elders, and after a night’s discussion and Yue Chen’s sharp analysis, the Clan Leader’s elders nodded in agreement.

The next day, Yue Chen and Ye Zi personally led a hundred thousand Grass Soldiers and Tree-men generals to the East Lin Sea.

As Yue Chen and others set off for the East Lin Sea, Yue Jinghua and Qian Luo also made their way to the Snow Domain, where Yue Jinghua once again met the Shepherdess Snake Clan, led by Wuyun. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

After a hundred years, the Snow Domain, once bloodwashed by the Great Crown Prince, had regained its prosperity.

Wuyun had grown from a little girl into an experienced Ice and Snow Goddess High Priestess.

When she saw Yue Jinghua, she respectfully performed the highest ceremony.

The Shepherdess Snake Clan’s people were astonished to see this; their High Priestess would only perform such a grand gesture before the Ice and Snow Goddess, yet these two dust-covered Dark Practitioners had such abilities.

"You’ve returned. Earlier, Wuyun prayed in the Goddess Temple and received a revelation that you were about to awaken," now Wuyun’s Divine Power had progressed considerably compared to before, her icy blue eyes vaguely reflecting the silhouette of the Ice and Snow Goddess.

"Given that, you must also have guessed my intentions," Yue Jinghua had come intending to travel to the Chen Plane via the Sky Rubbing Beast.

"Wuyun has already prepared the Sky Rubbing Beast and helmsman; they can depart for the Chen Plane immediately," Wuyun and Yue Jinghua exchanged a glance and smile before Wuyun led Yue Jinghua to the Ice and Snow Goddess Temple, where a fully grown Sky Rubbing Beast awaited Yue Jinghua.
