NOVEL NEXT Chapter 11
Chapter 11: Misleading, Is That Even a Problem?:
“Fairy, the workings of the Heavenly Dao are like a grand dream returning to unity—whether it’s a dream or destiny” Gu Feng deliberately guided, “In the vast multiverse of three thousand great worlds and three thousand small worlds, could it be that what you have seen connects to another world?”
Ling Xue was stunned.
Her expression became chaotic, her pupils even trembling.
The concept of parallel universes didn’t exist in the cultivation world, but Ling Xue’s soul had traveled back with Gu Feng. She didn’t understand the coincidence, so Gu Feng’s words scared her.
“You mean…” Ling Xue, who had once reached the Sixth Realm, began to speak.
When a cultivator entered the Fifth Realm, they would become aware of the existence of the Heavenly Dao.
Gu Feng was intentionally leading her on, saying, “I once had the fortune of seeing a fragment of an ancient text, where a cultivator had a great dream and gained knowledge of memories spanning thousands of years into the future.”
Ling Xue’s heart trembled at his words.
Seeing Gu Feng pause, she hurriedly asked, “And then?”
“He used the memories to seek fortune and avoid misfortune” Gu Feng said with a smile, “Seizing others’ opportunities and avoiding his own dangers.”
“Though the pursuit of cultivation is meant to defy destiny, the course of fate is difficult to alter. This person managed to avoid his fate, which attracted the attention of the Heavenly Dao.”
“The outcome was predictable—a single bolt of heavenly lightning shattered his soul.”
Ling Xue fell to the ground, nearly in tears. “But, if one already knows the future, how could they not…”
“Each world is different, Fairy. You came to me because I differ from the person in your so-called past life memories, correct?” Gu Feng asked calmly.
At this point, Ling Xue was completely disoriented and nodded frantically, not realizing she had fallen into Gu Feng’s trap.
“In that case, there should still be a way out. As long as you don’t act too conspicuously, and avoid the scrutiny of the Heavenly Dao, just follow your usual routine. According to that ancient text, only those who reach the Fifth Heaven are noticed by the Heavenly Dao. For now, just behave as you normally would.”
Ling Xue nodded, dazed, and left Gu Feng’s room in a state of confusion.
Watching her walk away, Gu Feng chuckled. The Heavenly Dao wanted to identify the variation in the world? He’d give it a variation.
The system in Gu Feng’s mind observed his performance, [Host, you’re really something!]
“No need for flattery. I’m just taking advantage of the fact that the female lead doesn’t know what a parallel universe is. After all, she’s lived for a thousand years. It’s possible that her lost and disheartened appearance was just an act.” Gu Feng never underestimated others.
Liu Fengqing, who was walking on the deck with Bai Yuxiao, saw Ling Xue leaving Gu Feng’s room.
He was going outside when he suddenly changed direction and walked right into Gu Feng’s room. The door was open, and there was no barrier.
“What brings you here?” Gu Feng asked without lifting his head.
“Haha, I just saw a Fairy leave your room. It looked like that Ling Xue from Lingyun Sect?” Liu Fengqing entered with a laugh, sitting directly in the spot where Ling Xue had just been.
Facing Gu Feng, he sat across from him.
“Mm,” Gu Feng nodded. “Yuxiao, pour some tea.”
Bai Yuxiao felt a bit confused as he watched his senior brother and master sitting as equals.
But since his senior brother had asked, he obediently poured the tea.
As he watched his senior brother remain calm and his master show a somewhat ingratiating expression, Bai Yuxiao grew more bewildered.
Who exactly was the master, and who was the disciple?
After the tea was poured, Gu Feng took a cup first and gently blew away the steam. “Besides gossip, is there anything else?”
Liu Fengqing accepted the tea from Bai Yuxiao. “After traveling another thousand miles, we’ll reach the Cloud Sea, where there will be demon beasts. Among the disciples who came this time, many are new and haven’t experienced real combat.”
“The demon beasts I caught today were restless, which suggests there might be some changes.” Liu Fengqing said with concern.
“Don’t worry. Just let that Lingyun Sect disciple, Ye Fan, handle it. He has great fortune and can turn danger into safety. Make sure to send a few other disciples with him; they should be able to pick up some benefits.” Gu Feng said, taking a sip of tea.
But the other two were stunned.
“That brat does seem promising, but great fortune…” Liu Fengqing found Gu Feng’s words increasingly mysterious.
“Just trust me. When the demon beasts come, you’ll understand,” Gu Feng said, placing the teacup down. He glanced up slightly, “Yuxiao also has some fortune.”
“No, Senior Brother, I don’t, I’m not…” Bai Yuxiao raised his hands in innocence.
“A little more training will only benefit you.” Liu Fengqing said with a glance at his second disciple.
Bai Yuxiao had excellent talent—though not as extraordinary as Gu Feng, he could still be considered a genius for his age.
“Yes, Master.” Bai Yuxiao nodded.
Just as Liu Fengqing had predicted, when the flying boat entered the deep sea area of the Cloud Sea, demon beasts could be seen lurking around the edges of the boat.
Boom!
Suddenly, the boat shook.
When Ouyang Yuxiong led all the Lingyun Sect disciples to the deck, he found that Bai Yuxiao had already arrived with his group.
The seven disciples of Zhengyuan Sect each wielded swords, slaying down the demon beasts that had leaped onto the deck.
“Quick, go help!”
