Zhang Fei - The Abandoned Son

After he left Ursula's soul space, Zhang Fei immediately went to meet Hun Di and Tang Ying, who were training in the training ground, to discuss the matter of her two souls. "Do you two think it's feasible?"

"I've never met someone born with two souls before, so I don't have the technique to separate them." Hun Di turned to his senior sister. "What do you think about that?"

"A living being with two twin souls is a unique phenomenon, and I've never encountered one in the past. I can create soul techniques, but a technique to do such a thing is impossible." Tang Ying then asked Zhang Fei. "Why don't you try asking Nalan Yushu about your second plan?"

"Your second plan is also impossible, Master." They turned to Nalan Yushu, who had just appeared. "Even though Ursula's two souls are separated from each other, they are actually a single entity, and it's the same as killing them if you separate them. The only way is to unite their souls, and they might obtain something special if you do that."

"I will never merge their souls into one." Zhang Fei immediately walked away, leaving them. Nalan Yushu hurriedly returned to his tiny soul world, and she tried to persuade him, but he did not budge on his decision.

Hun Di then asked his senior sister again. "You should be able to do it, right?"

"Hehe." Tang Ying giggled. "Separating their souls actually isn't that difficult, but as Nalan Yushu just said, their two souls are truly a single entity. I don't know how their souls could be split in two, but she would die if I separated them, so I said that to reject him."

Hun Di nodded in understanding. "Let's continue our training, and we will focus on our cultivation once we adapt perfectly to the gravity."

"Are you thinking of exploring the Paradise Realm?"

"Aren't you thinking the same thing as me?"

Tang Ying nodded at him. "This place is indeed extraordinary, especially with its time flow four times faster than the outside world. However, we are experienced senior cultivators, and we will only be limiting ourselves if we continue to stay here; therefore, I will leave immediately after my cultivation breaks through to the Five Celestial Realms."

"Unlike you, I still have to break through three more minor stages before I can break through to that stage, so I have to wait a little longer to be able to explore the Paradise Realm." Tang Ying just smiled at Hun Di, and the two of them immediately continued their training.

In the room, Sima Huiqing had opened her eyes, and all the Divine Qi in her body had been converted into the Celestial Qi, making her feel much fresher and stronger than before.

However, Mei's previous estimation was wrong because Sima Huiqing hadn't broken through to the Five Divine Realms yet, but she wasn't too far from breaking through either, and she only needed to cultivate for some time using Celestial Qi to be able to do so.

"Master." Zhang Fei [5] immediately shared his dual cultivation technique and several other techniques with Sima Huiqing, including the Ocean Flesh Scripture, which corresponds to her water element, surprising her. "Why are you sharing it with me? Aren't I just your slave?"

"Even if you're just my slave, you still have to get stronger to be able to help me, right? Therefore, I passed my dual cultivation technique to you, and that body technique is also suitable for you. As for the Indestructible Vajra Immortal Body, I'm sure you've read that technique, so I'll help you to master it." Sima Huiqing herself had heard that Zhang Fei [5] was already a master of the last technique, and she had tried to learn it in the past, but she had never succeeded. "Learn the dual cultivation technique first."

"Yes." Sima Huiqing closed her eyes again, but she was still confused by Zhang Fei [5]'s decision. Moreover, she clearly remembered that he had also enslaved Cao Feihong, but she was not with them.

Since the Flawless Yin-Yang Arts was an easy technique to learn, coupled with Sima Huiqing's extensive experience as a cultivator, she had mastered it in a matter of minutes.

After she finished learning it, Zhang Fei [5] immediately laid Sima Huiqing on the bed and began dual cultivating with her, overwhelming her because she hadn't done it in so long.

Meanwhile, Zhang Fei was already in the main bedroom together with Luo Yunxiao, who had finished learning the techniques he had given him before.

Luo Yunxiao immediately climbed onto Zhang Fei's lap, embraced his neck, and asked him. "What's making you gloomy? Did something happen while I was focused?"

"Nothing happened." Zhang Fei immediately told Luo Yunxiao about the two souls inside Ursula's body, which surprised her. "I wanted them to live as twins like the Amaris Twins, but unfortunately, that's impossible because it would only kill them."

Luo Yunxiao nodded in understanding before telling her something. "Actually, there's a powerful soul cultivator in the Samsara Domain, and he might be able to help you with that. His name is Hun Lingwu, and his cultivation has reached the 3-Sun Celestial Venerable Realm; even his soul level has reached the perfection stage of the divine soul level. However, he's not a completely good person; he might get jealous and do something bad to you if he finds out your secrets."

"Such a powerful soul cultivator! Even Tang Ying and my master can't compare to him!" Zhang Fei exclaimed. "Is he really a bad person?"

"Not really." Luo Yunxiao then told Zhang Fei about Hun Lingwu's character. "He's actually a decent person, and he helps other cultivators a lot. However, you know for yourself that worldly emotions often influence us to do bad things, like what happened to Zhang He and Chen Xin. Despite his old age and seniority, he is no different from other people, and he is often influenced by his emotions, making him do many reprehensible things. Therefore, I don't want you to have anything to do with him, especially since he has surpassed the current you in every way."

Zhang Fei gave Luo Yunxiao a gentle kiss. "Since you've said that, I won't ignore your words. Moreover, I'm not in a hurry regarding Ursula's two souls, and I'm sure I'll find the most appropriate method to help them in the future. For now, I want to focus on reaching the Five Celestial Realms first, and I will explore the Paradise Realm after I reach that stage. By the way, have you heard of the black market in this realm?"

"Are you looking for items related to demons and heretics?" Zhang Fei immediately told Luo Yunxiao about the five items he needed to advance his demon rank to the advanced rank. "I don't know anything about those items or the black market, but my father has an acquaintance who might be able to help you look for them. If you're in a hurry to get those items, we can go see him now, and he can contact his acquaintance to help you."

"I'm not in a hurry to get them, so we'll meet Uncle Luo during our wedding. Although I'll become stronger if my demon rank rises to the next stage, it has nothing to do with my cultivation. Moreover, I can still store demon essence within my body, and my demon rank will immediately rise to the advanced ranks once I obtain them." Zhang Fei then released his soul, followed by Luo Yunxiao, who also released her soul. The two of them also summoned their nine avatars, and those avatars immediately absorbed the Celestial Qi from the air, flowing it into their bodies. "Let's start now, Yunxiao."

"Yes."

Wan Jiang, who was chatting with his three disciples, was surprised by Beiming Youhuang's arrival at their place. "What brought you here, Jia You?"

"Zhang Fei." Wan Jiang raised an eyebrow in response to Beiming Youhuang. "He arrived in the Paradise Realm a few days ago, and he has already broken through to the Divine Expansion Realm now. I heard that he's challenged this tower before, so you should know a lot about him, right?"

Wan Jiang nodded to her. "I do know quite a lot about Zhang Fei, and he's also helped me with some matters. However, I warn you not to be too curious about him, or you'll get yourself into trouble."

"Senior Beiming, you must listen to my master." Beiming Youhuang turned to Zhang Fei directly. "That hateful guy isn't a good person, and he has countless women. He even used his demon abilities on me and made me horny, but I immediately escaped from him, and my master removed the effect from me; otherwise, he would have done something indecent to me. Therefore, you should avoid him, or he will do the same to you."

"You're Hua Xiang'er's little sister, right?" Hua Mei'er nodded at Beiming Youhuang. "Actually, I asked about Zhang Fei not because I was curious about him, but because he's going to marry Luo Yunxiao in a month. Although I've only met him once, I feel that he's not a good man, so I want to know more about him."

"He-"

"Enough, Mei'er." Wan Jiang stopped his disciple. "You should stop badmouthing Zhang Fei, do you understand? Instead of badmouthing him, you should reflect on your rudeness and insults, which caused him to do that to you."

Hua Mei'er immediately shut her mouth after Wan Jiang said that, making Helian Xun'er and Sima Yun laugh.

Wan Jiang then spoke to Beiming Youhuang again. "I don't know how close you are to Princess Luo, but you must remember that she is your disciple and not your daughter. Therefore, you have no right to interfere in her personal affairs, including her relationship with Zhang Fei. Moreover, Sect Master Luo and his wife have approved their relationship, so you should stop interfering in their affairs. Even though that kid is a demon, he isn't as bad as you imagine, but he will be your worst nightmare if you interfere in his personal affairs."

"Hmm?" Beiming Youhuang frowned in response.

"You still don't realize his true identity, huh?" Wan Jiang released a soft sigh. "Did you know that he is also a human and a heavenly fox?"

"Yes."

"Then, why do you still think he's a bad person?"

"What do his three identities have to do with him being good or bad?"

Wan Jiang immediately created a qi screen, which showed a fox stone monument. "One day in the future, the ten-tailed fox will return to this realm once again. However, he is more than a heavenly fox because he is also a human and a demon, and he is the one who will bring peace to this universe."

"The writing of the ten-tailed fox." Beiming Youhuang's eyes widened as she muttered to herself.

"That's right." Wan Jiang nodded at her. "So far, I have never met anyone else who possesses three identities like Zhang Fei; therefore, I am certain that he is the man in the writing. In fact, many natural races also believe that he is the one, including the Fairy King."

"The Fairy King?" Beiming Youhuang's expression turned ugly.

Wan Jiang then displayed another image on the Qi screen, which showed his conversation with Jia Yuyan sometime ago. "Her name is Jia Yuyan, the granddaughter of Jia Lingzhu and Jia Shengyun. Jia Zizhen sent her under the pretext of hiding her from those who were targeting her, but he also ordered her to find the heir of the ten-tailed fox."

"Has she told Jia Zizhen about Zhang Fei?" Beiming Youhuang asked in a serious tone.

Wan Jiang shook his head. "I don't know what kind of message that Jia Zizhen sent to that kid through Jia Yuyan, but he realized that the Fairy King wasn't a good person. In fact, that little girl is one of his wives now, and he forbade her to tell that guy about him."

"I see." Beiming Youhuang nodded in understanding. "If Jia Zizhen obtains more information about Zhang Fei and finds out that he has arrived in our realm, I'm sure he'll attack him immediately."

"That's right." Wan Jiang then removed the Qi screen. "Since you already know that kid's identity, you should stop interfering in his relationship with Princess Luo. While he may not have done anything to you yet, he will undoubtedly do so if you cross his boundaries, and you will bear the consequences of your actions."

Beiming Youhuang nodded slightly. "I will return to our realm now."

Wan Jiang let out a soft sigh before turning to Hua Mei'er with narrowed eyes, forcing her to flee the scene. "She's old, but she still can't distinguish between good and bad."

After she returned to the Paradise Realm, Beiming Youhuang did not go to the Immortal Lotus Sanctuary, and she returned to her own sect, the Star Cloud Pavilion.

Days passed quickly in the Paradise Realm, and almost a month had passed. During this time, Zhang Fei never left the pavilion, and neither did his clones, except for Zhang Xiaolong [3], who stayed in the Sovereign Realm.

Zhang Fei focused entirely on assisting all his wives with their normal cultivation, soul cultivation, and body cultivation. Meanwhile, his four clones focused on other things like alchemy, blacksmithing, formation arrays, and more. Even so, they didn't neglect their respective wives.

After cultivating using the Celestial Qi and dual cultivating with Zhang Fei [5] repeatedly, Sima Huiqing finally broke through to the Five Celestial Realms.

Of all Zhang Fei's main harem members, only Feng Yichen and Huli Zhishen had broken through to the Five Celestial Realms, especially since their cultivation had long since reached the peak. At first, they wanted to hold back their cultivation to help him, but he forbade them from doing so and forced them to break through.

Since tomorrow is his wedding day with Luo Yunxiao, Zhang Fei decided to take her back to the Immortal Lotus Sanctuary to prepare herself. At first, he wanted to bring all his wives there, but they refused and instead asked him to summon them on their wedding day.

In the end, Zhang Fei only took Luo Yunxiao, Qing Yi, Zhang Yue, and Zhang Lin out of the training space. As soon as they appeared, Zhang Chen immediately took him away and interrogated him about the Cursed Demon Heart.

Given that his grandmother was already aware of it, Zhang Fei chose to reveal the truth to her, a decision that deeply worried her. "Grandma, I know you're worried about me, but I can suppress the demon heart, and I will never succumb to its influence."

"Fei'er, I hope you can truly keep your promise and not succumb to the influence of the demon heart, okay?" Zhang Fei nodded to Zhang Chen, who immediately told him something else. "A month ago, Tian Huangjin came here looking for you, but she didn't come alone, and she came with another woman named Tianshi Shengjie."

Zhang Fei raised an eyebrow after hearing the last name, as he was still annoyed with Tianshi Shengjie, who deliberately pitted him against the natural races in the Evergreen Spirit Heaven Realm. "Are those two women still in this domain?"

"I can't sense their presence, so I don't know if they're still in this domain. However, they said they'll come here again during your wedding with Luo Yunxiao, so you can meet them tomorrow." Zhang Chen then hugged his arm and led him to another area. "Your mother and I will help you prepare now."

"All right."

.

In the inn, Tianshi Shengjie stood by the window, smiling to herself. "Zhang Fei has appeared, Huangjin. That kid seems to still be angry with me, especially after I left him at the Evergreen Spirit Haven back then."

"Shall we go see Zhang Fei now?" Tian Huangjin walked to her side.

"No." Tianshi Shengjie dismissed it. "Let him prepare for his wedding first, and we'll talk to him after their wedding is over. I hope no bothersome people show up tomorrow, so we can talk to him in peace."

Tian Huangjin shook her head. "Do you think those people would dare to appear in this place? The ancestors of the Luo Clan are not weak, and they are highly respected by the senior cultivators, including my father."

"Let's wait for tomorrow, then."
