My gorgeous wife Chapter 2209 - 2177: Doghouse
Previously on My gorgeous wife...
Go inside.
As soon as Suan Tian went inside, the atmosphere became somewhat eerie.
Ning Wangyang sipped his wine, eyes observing nose, nose observing heart.
Bai Shi and the Netherworld were enjoying a feast, occasionally glancing to the side.
Li Chen glared at the Spiritual Treasure Daoist Honor and Suan Tian.
Suan Tian and the Spiritual Treasure Daoist Honor stared each other down.
"Fortune teller, you old thing, you’re still not dead." Finally, the Spiritual Treasure Daoist Honor uttered this rudely.
"You’re older than me; if you haven’t died, why would I?" Suan Tian replied unhurriedly.
Indeed, the two were old acquaintances, even known each other from very ancient times.
But Suan Tian wasn’t wrong; the Spiritual Treasure Daoist Honor was indeed much older than him.
The Spiritual Treasure Daoist Honor was born in the early Pioneering Era, while Suan Tian appeared in the middle of the Pioneering Era. By then, having experienced the ups and downs of that era, the Spiritual Treasure Daoist Honor had already become a top-tier king.
However, after the Pioneering Era, the two went through the evolution and sedimentation of eras, finding numerous ancient relics during the Revival Era, and both reached the peak at a time when strong beings were few and rare, becoming Soul Realm experts from the Seventh Rank to the Ninth Order.
Though their exchanges weren’t frequent, they could barely count as friends.
Without having experienced such an era, it’s hard to imagine the desolation of the Four Realms just after experiencing great destruction.
Their luck was relatively better, being born in the Pioneering Era.
If born earlier, after the Four Emperors Era and during the barren and desolate eras when the Four Great Realms simultaneously exhausted, almost none born in that era survived till now.
In such times, with the Heavenly Dao broken, no one in control, the laws destroyed, rules chaotic, spiritual energy depleted, cultivation was exceedingly difficult, so much so that many strong beings who had barely survived from the end of the Four Emperors Era or even the Seven Realms Era, died of old age in those times.
Perhaps this is one of the main reasons why Soul Realm experts have hidden themselves since the Four Emperors Era.
The Pioneering Era was somewhat better compared to the previous two, but only slightly.
These two, are the rare old folks who survived from the Pioneering Era till now.
"Older than you..." The Spiritual Treasure Daoist Honor looked at Suan Tian with a somewhat complicated expression: "Still, I am ultimately not as good as you."
Hearing the Spiritual Treasure Daoist Honor’s words, Suan Tian seemed to recall something, lightly sighed, and patted the Spiritual Treasure Daoist Honor’s shoulder: "Don’t be discouraged, you also have hope. Back then, I only barely reached the last threshold of the Heavenly Level by deciphering the heavenly secrets of the Ancient Era’s final calculation. You... were just unlucky."
The Spiritual Treasure Daoist Honor fell silent upon hearing these words.
Indeed, he wasn’t very lucky.
With his aptitude, he was hopeful of crossing the final Heavenly Level threshold during the Starry Universe’s Ancient Era when its rules were finally completed.
But due to experiencing a great change, almost demonizing, he lost the last opportunity, instead suppressed for so many years, struggling to recover with much effort to regain his Daoist Honor cultivation.
Hesitating a bit, the Spiritual Treasure Daoist Honor finally couldn’t help but ask: "Those old fellows back then, couldn’t all have died, could they? But if they didn’t die, where exactly did they go?"
Hearing this, Li Chen couldn’t help but perk his ears.
He also wanted to know!
Though Li Chen knew that the experts who broke through the Heavenly Level Soul Realm threshold almost all hide away, considering so many strong beings, not every one of them needed recovery like Little Cang. They also needed cultivation, but clearly, such level of experts can’t cultivate in low-level planes.
So, where exactly did they go?
Yet Suan Tian just lightly shook his head, pointed upwards: "Unspoken, unspoken."
"Are those things really that formidable?" The Spiritual Treasure Daoist Honor asked with somewhat grit teeth.
"Those things are secondary." Suan Tian shook his head: "The so-called ancient battles back then were actually pushed forward by some forces behind the scenes, but now it is indeed inconvenient to tell you."
"Spiritual Treasure, although I know about your daughter’s situation, all I can say is that someday you’ll have the chance to face the true enemy accountable for her death." Suan Tian said softly.
Li Chen listening at the side, was deep in thought.
At this point, Suan Tian looked at Li Chen: "Kid, stop eavesdropping. I actually came here to find you, meeting Spiritual Treasure was unexpected."
"Looking for me?" Li Chen was puzzled: "Didn’t you leave after predicting for me last time? Are you here for another reading?"
Suan Tian’s expression turned awkward: "It was an urgent matter at that time, so I had to leave."
"Oh." Li Chen said oh, then stared at Suan Tian, not speaking further.
"Actually, I came this time just to give you a heads up." At this moment, Suan Tian began using sound transmission to talk to Li Chen.
Even though here is the Borderland Realm, here is Tianyu City, Suan Tian dared not be complacent in the slightest.
From those old predecessors’ mouths, he had deeply understood how terrifying their real enemies in this Starry Universe were.
"With your aptitude, to break through this last threshold, I think it’s only a matter of time." Suan Tian said: "However, you’re fine while in Soul Realm, but once you break through Soul Realm, those outsiders will inevitably target you. By then, powerful adversaries will certainly be dispatched to eliminate a genius monster like you of terrible might."
"It’s possible that an ancient ancestor or even a Dao Saint could forcibly descend into the Starry Universe. Those forces always spare no efforts to eliminate genius seeds of the Starry Universe." Suan Tian explained: "Since the end of the ancient battles, countless geniuses in the Starry Universe have been killed by them. Before, even several who managed to comprehend the Law of Destruction died mysteriously, orchestrated by these forces."
Understanding Li Chen aside, Suan Tian didn’t hide the era-ancient civilization matters either.
"I know you’re fearless; your path is unstoppable, whoever blocks you gets slain. But you should consider those around you." Suan Tian sighed: "Once they realize you’re difficult to kill, they’ll exhaust all means and resort to sinister plans. So kid, I advise you to think carefully about this matter early."
Li Chen was silent for a moment, then nodded and asked: "Can you tell me where you’re planning to take me?"
Suan Tian smirked self-deprecatingly: "They like to call that place the Holy Realm, but I prefer to call it a doghouse."
Holy Realm, doghouse.
What a doghouse.
What a pack of stray dogs.
