Who Let Him Cultivate?! (WX)-Chapter 783: Yet Another Junior Sister
“Upon realizing they couldn’t resurrect you by calling your name, Hubby and the others sought other methods. After some discussion, they consulted Qing He and attempted to use faith power to resurrect you, Jiejie. Thus, they founded the Ember Legacy Dynasty.”
“Faith power is that useful?” Lu Yang was surprised. He truly didn’t know much about this.
However, considering the Great Qian Dynasty practiced “divine faith,” which could form the basis of a dynasty, faith power must have merits.
The Everlasting Immortal Fairy shook her head. She only accepted worship as an object of faith for fun and hadn’t paid much attention to this aspect.
Ao Ling continued recalling. “On the foundation of the Ember Legacy Dynasty, Hubby and the others established two major faith systems: ‘Heavenly Court’ and ‘Underworld.’
Lu Yang, “...”
Did I just hallucinate? Why did I hear a very familiar term?
“The ‘Heavenly Court’ system was to manage the mortal realm.
“The ‘Underworld’ system was to govern life and death.
“The general principle was to use ‘Heavenly Court’ to accumulate faith for you and shape an immortal body. Hence, in the Ember Legacy Dynasty, the statue of the Heavenly Court’s ruler was you, Jiejie! You were the Heavenly Court’s ruler!”
Lu Yang and the Everlasting Immortal Fairy stared at each other.
Lu Yang saw excitement in the Everlasting Immortal Fairy’s eyes.
The Everlasting Immortal Fairy saw her excited self reflected in Lu Yang’s eyes.
“Second-in-Command, you truly have clairvoyance to foresee the future—oh no, foresee the past!”
Lu Yang didn’t really want to speak.
Ao Ling continued. “On the other hand, the Underworld’s ruler wielded the authority to govern life and death, which resonates with your Everlasting authority, Jiejie. The Everlasting Dao Fruit is imperishable, and this method could call it back. If it was unsuccessful, they could also use the Underworld system’s governance over life and death to resurrect you.
“Of course, all this was in theory. No one had practiced it and knew the outcome. But judging from the four’s attitude, the success rate seemed quite high.”
Lu Yang suspected the reason the four immortals were so confident was that they knew the Everlasting Immortal Fairy would be resurrected in the future.
“Meanwhile, Hubby and the others were also trying to analyze the culprit’s identity and abilities. The Epoch Immortal attempted to observe the past, seeking the murder process. But he found that period gray and hazy, unable to see anything clearly. Someone suspected a Karma Dao Fruit, someone suspected a Law Follows Words Dao Fruit, and someone suspected a Substitution Dao Fruit... There were all kinds of conjectures. These Dao Fruits existed only in theory. Without actual contact, one couldn’t assert the culprit’s Dao Fruit.
“The only thing they could be certain of was that the culprit was formidable; their strength surpassed that of my husband and the other three.
“Ten thousand years after the Ember Legacy Dynasty’s founding, a genius emerged among later generations. He was a member of the Shi Huang Clan. He achieved the Dao and became an immortal, attaining the Insight Dao Fruit.
“The Insight Dao Fruit allows complete vision and insightful comprehension; one can sit and see in all ten directions, perceiving heaven above and earth below with no obstructions—everything is within sight.”
“Sitting and seeing in all ten directions—that’s pretty impressive. It’s much more useful than the Epoch Dao Fruit that observes the future. I never expected a place like the Shi Huang Clan could produce such a genius,” the Everlasting Immortal Fairy complimented.
Sitting and seeing in all ten directions means being able to see the past, present, and future. Although the Epoch Immortal could observe the future, he couldn’t do so accurately, only perceiving one possible future.
Ao Ling shook her head. “Jiejie, you think too highly of him. He barely achieved immortality, and his strength was right at the bottom.”
Lu Yang’s eye twitched. Only a half-immortal like Ao Ling, who can sense Dao Fruit suppression, is qualified to say such a thing. And there’s also Senior Lianyi, Big Senior Sister, the Everlasting Immortal Fairy, the Heaven Mandate Immortal, the Nine-Layers Immortal, the Epoch Immortal, the Qilin Immortal... Counting all of them, there are actually quite a few people who are qualified to say such a thing...
“Hubby and the others invited this ‘Left Historian Immortal’ to observe the murder process. He exerted his Dao Fruit until he sweated profusely, but couldn’t discern any useful results.
“When he was asked to observe the future, he could only see a certain fragment, but he couldn’t control which timeframe it belonged to. For instance, he once observed that there would be a Battle of the Great Era 390,000 years later and that an immortal would perish. Only when observing the present world could he perceive everything in detail.”
Hearing the Left Historian Immortal’s observation, Lu Yang’s heart skipped a beat. Isn’t that now?
An immortal perishing—does that refer to the first Yu Emperor? Or is it another immortal?
“Another ten thousand years passed. Hubby was uncertain when you could be resurrected, so he suggested I slumber. Once you were revived, you would naturally come to wake me. Thus, I slept in my cave abode.” 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖
Ao Ling’s lifespan was finite; she couldn’t wait forever.
“So we’re no longer in the Ember Legacy Dynasty?” Ao Ling was still fixated on this question.
Lu Yang replied, “It’s been four hundred thousand years since the Immortal Fairy perished. The Ember Legacy Dynasty fell three hundred thousand years ago.
“Moreover, the Immortal Fairy and I discovered a remnant battle site of the Qilin Immortal. He fought an immortal who possessed the Silent Annihilation Dao Fruit. The battle location was likely the cave abode you slept in, Senior Ao Ling!
“The energy in the Dragon-Pattern Bracelet that the Heaven Mandate Immortal forged for you is depleted.” Lu Yang took out the bracelet and respectfully returned it to its owner.
Ao Ling took the bracelet and froze. She was well aware of what the Dragon-Pattern Bracelet’s depleted energy signified.
Lu Yang added, “Furthermore, when the Qilin Immortal transferred you elsewhere, you encountered an ambush. As such, before the Immortal Fairy lifted the Play-Dead Technique, your soul was shattered.
“Also, no one in the outside world knows of the Ember Legacy Dynasty’s existence anymore. It’s likely the work of that immortal with the Silent Annihilation Dao Fruit. That immortal is deliberately erasing information about the dynasty, to the point of becoming enemies with the Heaven Mandate Immortal and the other three immortals.”
Ao Ling hadn’t expected so many events to occur after her slumber.
Sensing the atmosphere was somewhat awkward, the Everlasting Immortal Fairy kindly comforted her and took charge of the situation. “Alright, alright, don’t dwell on these things. Thinking about it now won’t yield results. Besides, with this immortal here, nothing will go wrong.”
Ao Ling nodded earnestly and replied, “Mmm, I trust Everlasting-jiejie.”
Lu Yang thought, Senior Ao Ling, could you not trust her in such a matter?
“And you, your name is Lu Yang, right?” Ao Ling got up from the bed, her dragon tail swaying.
She bowed deeply to Lu Yang, stating solemnly, “Thank you for resurrecting Everlasting-jiejie. My husband and the other three immortals, Lianyi, Qing He, and I all owe you a great favor!”
Lu Yang was flustered, not daring to accept such a grand bow. However, whether he dared or not wasn’t up to him; he couldn’t even budge a single strand of Ao Ling’s hair.
Seeing this, the Everlasting Immortal Fairy quickly stepped in to alleviate the situation. “Aiya, Second-in-Command, don’t decline. As the Second-in-Command of the Everlasting Lineage, your status is much higher than unofficial disciples like Little Ling and Lianyi. By seniority, Little Ling can even call you senior brother.”
“Immortal Fairy, don’t speak nonsense. That’s not how seniority works.” Lu Yang warned the Everlasting Immortal Fairy with his eyes.
Unfortunately, she didn’t have eyes.
Ao Ling bowed again, revealing a sly smile. “Ao Ling greets Senior Brother Lu Yang.”
