Supreme of the Heavenly Realm-Chapter 1035 - 1029: Departure

"Then, six months later, we shall meet again at the Sky Eye."

Qian You and Hei Yu bowed to Ye Xuan, and then they too left the place, returning to the Netherworld Space.

Soon, only Ye Xuan, Ling Qianxue, and Nangong Yao were left here.

"Rest assured, if you succeed, we will follow soon and reunite with you in the Heavenly Realm."

A gentle voice drifted over, a soft and tender jade hand gently holding Ye Xuan’s large hand. The smoothness and warmth it transmitted slightly calmed Ye Xuan’s heart. He then glanced over at Ling Qianxue in her white, fairy-like dress beside him. Her beautiful eyes quietly looked at him, and the tenderness within them was unmistakable.

"Yes, Brother Ye Xuan, you need not worry. Instead, you should be cautious; the portal between the worlds is perilous, and even after successfully passing through, powerful enemies await you in the Heavenly Realm. You should be well-prepared."

Nangong Yao, knowing Ye Xuan’s attention to detail, reminded him nonetheless.

"Hmm. But I am not without foundation in the Heavenly Realm. Those two who wish to kill me won’t find it that easy."

A gleam flashed in Ye Xuan’s eyes. After all, he was once a prodigious Martial God who wielded power over a part of the Heavenly Realm. His followers once included countless top experts, and even though they have drifted apart now, there are still trustworthy people among them.

This time, returning to the Heavenly Realm, he must make a grand comeback, washing away past humiliations, and reestablishing his authority.

"In the meantime, I will stay with you, making up for the time lost."

Ye Xuan looked at the two women, his eyes revealing a gentle expression. He gazed at the quiet Ling Qianxue and the lively and adorable Nangong Yao, feeling warmth and emotion flow through his heart. He grasped their jade hands tightly, saying,

"All along, Ye Xuan has treated Nangong Yao like a sister he cherishes, keeping her by his side because he couldn’t let go."

As for Ling Qianxue, she was always this way, quietly hiding all emotions in her heart. For him, she could give up her natural aloofness and become tender to console him. During his most vulnerable moments, she would always quietly stand by his side, even without a word, yet Ye Xuan felt warmth and comfort. However, her strength sometimes made people feel a bit heartbroken.

She often appeared when Ye Xuan needed her the most, becoming a spiritual support for him to some extent.

"Why suddenly say such mushy words? They caught me off guard and feel odd."

Ling Qianxue’s face showed a hint of shyness, making her extraordinarily charming. The current Ling Qianxue no longer seemed like the cold maiden she once was, but rather a cold and elegant woman. Although differentiated by only a word, the difference was significant.

Now, Ling Qianxue was like a ripe apple; her slightest smile could stir a man’s desires.

"During this time, you need to break through soon, so I can leave with peace of mind."

Ye Xuan once again looked into the distance. Six months can feel both long and short. However, the Sky Eye wouldn’t close, so the timing to act was almost indifferent.

Perhaps a period of tranquility would follow.

...

Six months passed in the blink of an eye.

Near the Sky Eye.

Today, almost all the Sealing Emperor Strong People of the Ancient World gathered, both the older and younger generations alike. Although they could visit the Sky Eye anytime, walking through the portal between the worlds might only happen once in their lifetimes. Except for those who had once braved the passage, none knew how strong the guardians of the realms were or the extent of the danger. Nor did anyone know the odds of returning to the Spirit Martial World after passing Death’s road. All was uncertain, making this possibly their last glimpse of Ye Xuan for a long time, maybe ever.

Of course, they hoped Ye Xuan could open the portal, dissolve all dangers, and defeat the realm guardians. Then, they could all go out, though it seemed the difficulty was steep.

Even if Ye Xuan claimed a sixty to seventy percent certainty, they feared his chances of failure were high.

"Ye Xuan, you must succeed!"

Qian You murmured softly.

"I will."

Standing at the forefront, Ye Xuan turned his head, smiling. The Sky Eye behind him was a giant vortex, like a gateway to hell, poised to devour, emanating a dreadful killing intent.

"I believe in you, just as I believe you won’t easily perish at the hands of that Heavenly Realm Envoy."

Hei Yu said, arms crossed, smiling.

"Thank you for your trust." Taking a deep breath, Ye Xuan’s gaze swept over everyone—Ling Qianxue, Nangong Yao, Qian You, Hei Yu, Shui Linglong, Bai Wuyuan, Huang Yan, Ao Tian, the Heavenly Phoenix Clan Leader Huang Xu, and the Kunpeng Clan Leader Kun Lian—finally resting it once more on Ling Qianxue and Nangong Yao.

With an apologetic look, Ye Xuan said, "Sorry, this time I must leave again, alone."

"Sister Ling should break through soon. You can leave with peace of mind," Nangong Yao said.

Ling Qianxue also nodded, "It’s been delayed for six months already. It can’t be put off any longer. The sooner you enter the Heavenly Realm, the better for you. On the contrary, staying in the Ancient World would make it easier for your enemies to deal with you."

At these words, Ye Xuan fell silent. Though the Heavenly Realm had been quiet for half a year, it didn’t mean his enemies had abandoned him completely. There was Ao Jue last time, and there might be Ao Feng or Ao Yu next time. They were likely crafting a more significant plot, and the next move could very well be devastating.

In the Ancient World, his fame and status could easily reveal him to the enemy, but in the Heavenly Realm, it was uncertain. In the Heavenly Realm, those with his level of cultivation were as common as cattle. Finding him would be like finding a needle in a haystack.

So, going to the Heavenly Realm seemed comparatively safer.

"I know." Ye Xuan nodded, then continued, "I promise I will break through the portal and make my mark in the Heavenly Realm."

A fierce resolve flashed in Ye Xuan’s eyes. He knew his past status in the Heavenly Realm must be restored, and those who plotted against him were doomed.

This time, by breaking through the portal, he just needed to cripple the realm guardians and eliminate uncertain dangers. Then the portal would be freely open for a short time. As long as he reached the Martial Emperor level, he should be able to break through.

"Ye Xuan. It is not early. The sooner, the better; act now!"

The Dragon Clan Leader Ao Tian said.

"Indeed, it is time to leave. Everyone, I entrust the Spirit Martial World to you; see you in the Heavenly Realm."

After saying farewell, Ye Xuan, with no lingering hesitation, vanished into the Sky Eye.
