"Are you looking for me too?" In a small border town with thin spiritual energy, there weren’t many cultivators, and even mortals rarely resided here. How Yan Junyang managed to find her trace was unknown.
"You finally agreed to come out and see me." Yan Junyang relaxed his expression somewhat, "Finding you isn’t a difficult task; my relations with the Divine Calculation Sect are pretty good."
"So is there anything you want? Are you here to avenge Jiang Ruixiao too?"
"You should know I wouldn’t do such a thing."
"Really? I’m not so sure about that."
Watching Ye Qiu like this, Yan Junyang frowned, "You weren’t like this before, what have you encountered in these thousand years?"
"Should people always be the same? I’ve changed; haven’t you changed too? I never thought the once proud Mr. Yan would choose a day to compromise."
"Are you resenting me for marrying Jiang Ruixiao? Ye Qiu, Jiang Ruixiao is different, you would understand me."
"Because of her unique luck?" Ye Qiu sneered, "Does your Sword Sect intend to rely on her to find the Immortal Path?"
Yan Junyang didn’t respond, clearly admitting.
"Then I have nothing more to say." Ye Qiu sighed quietly, simultaneously feeling as if something in her heart had disappeared—a persistence gone. She knew it was the residual will of the former self; perhaps hearing Yan Junyang say this was disappointing, leading to complete relinquishment. Maybe in her previous life, Yan Junyang married her predecessor for this reason?
However, Yan Junyang continued to explain, "I know in your view I am wrong, but there’s nothing I can do, Ye Qiu. You are very dangerous now; Jiang Ruixiao’s people are everywhere looking for you. You should avoid going out for a while."
Ye Qiu scoffed, "If I hadn’t come out intentionally, you wouldn’t have found me."
"It’s been a thousand years, can’t you let it go? Ye Qiu, what you said in the hall that day, I heard it all, I was very happy, but we are impossible. I’ve already let it go; I hope you can too."
Ye Qiu looked at him with indifferent eyes, full of coldness, "Rest assured, I won’t bother you anymore. I also let it go long ago; what I said that day was merely to provoke Jiang Ruixiao."
Although he initially spoke words of counsel, when Ye Qiu truly said she didn’t care, Yan Junyang felt uncomfortable. He suddenly sensed as though he’d lost something very important, causing his mind to become unstable.
"Did you ever love me?" He questioned skeptically.
"Once, perhaps!" Ye Qiu said candidly, "But now I feel nothing. Let’s go our separate ways, even if you help Jiang Ruixiao to deal with me, it doesn’t matter."
With that, she stood up and departed without a trace of nostalgia, but Yan Junyang’s heart felt somewhat empty. At that moment, he received a sound transmission from his master Jin Xi.
"Junyang, the Sect Leader of the Divine Calculation Sect just told me the path forward has changed; Jiang Ruixiao is no longer the most hopeful one." The Sword Sect Leader Jin Xi said in a heavy tone.
Yan Junyang tightened his grip on the Sound Transmission Token, "Who is it?"
"Unknown. The Divine Calculator only calculated that a person is in the west and will cause significant changes in the cultivation world in the future, Junyang. We must find this person in advance."
Yan Junyang was taken aback. The west, but wasn’t he in the west right now? And there was Ye Qiu who had just left, but could it be Ye Qiu? What is the change?
He quickly learned what the change was. A month later, Ye Qiu discovered the entrance to an ancient secret realm in the western area, desolate with thin spiritual energy. She didn’t keep it to herself, choosing to notify loose cultivators through a trading firm.
Loose cultivators usually have average talents and cultivation resources, but their vigilance is exceptional. They often go to great lengths to compete for cultivation resources, so keeping the secret realm hidden from major sects was necessary because once known and controlled by major sects, loose cultivators would have no part in it.
When loose cultivators arrived in the western desert and entered it half a month later, the geniuses from major sects belatedly realized something was amiss and frantically sent people over, but Yan Junyang who was already there, was one step ahead.
Listening to loose cultivators discussing Ye Qiu’s kindness, Yan Junyang’s suspicion deepened. He entered the secret realm with heavy thoughts, searching everywhere but couldn’t find Ye Qiu’s trace.
This secret realm was indeed a natural growth place for Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures. This time, the loose cultivators formed an unusual unity; if it weren’t for Yan Junyang’s effective concealment, he wouldn’t have been able to get in.
As for the disciples from major sects who arrived later and were accustomed to disdain loose cultivators, they were shut out. Despite the loose cultivators’ inherent self-interest, letting major sects take over this secret realm was even more unacceptable.
Everyone is a cultivator, why do you look down on us? Moreover, this place was gifted to us by Fairy Ye Qiu, whom you were hunting; handing it over to you would be heartless to Fairy Ye Qiu.
The saying "he who provides the milk is the mother" is a truth well understood by cultivators in the cultivation world. Regardless of Jiang Ruixiao’s good name, she offered no real benefits to loose cultivators. Last month, it was heard that a loose cultivator’s partner was in crisis; when they asked the pure-hearted Rui Yao Fairy for an elixir, Rui Yao Fairy ignored the request utterly; the disdain in her tone seemingly suggested they were delusional.
In contrast to Jiang Ruixiao’s stinginess, Ye Qiu directly offered such a great opportunity to all loose cultivators. Even the male loose cultivators who previously praised Jiang Ruixiao now spoke highly of Ye Qiu.
Some went even further, spreading rumors of their grievance everywhere, claiming Jiang Ruixiao intentionally sabotaged Ye Qiu out of envy for Ye Qiu’s talent. Despite Ye Qiu losing her Golden Core, she managed to cultivate to the current state—demonstrating the strength of Ye Qiu’s innate talent, which is why Senior Kong Mingzi entrusted his disciple to Fairy Ye Qiu!
Upon hearing this rumor, Jiang Ruixiao was practically on the verge of anger. She hadn’t counted on Ye Qiu achieving the feat of gifting such a significant opportunity to defeat her. But would Ye Qiu be truly untouchable having the protection of loose cultivators?
Consequently, another rumor arose in the cultivation world, claiming Ye Qiu gained an Immortal’s inheritance and cultivates Immortal Laws. Why else could she cultivate after losing her Golden Core? They also said she possesses a Mustard Space filled with innumerable rare Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, hence her indifference to the secret realm.
This rumor was detailed, and Ye Qiu’s numerous actions forced suspicion upon many. Now, everyone was searching for Ye Qiu, hoping to replace her in obtaining the Immortal’s inheritance and inherit the Mustard Space.
A year passed, and Ye Qiu discovered another secret realm—this time, the spiritual beasts’ inheritance space. The spirit beast eggs within had survived unknown years, showing faint life signs. She offered them to the spiritual beasts of Ten Thousand Mountains, gaining their protection.
