317: Situ Haoyue is leaving Yuanshi Xujie?

“During this year, do you know why Situ Haoyue kept pestering you, finding someone to spar with you every few months?”

“Initially, he found someone from the Dragon Clan at the same Realm as you, but you easily defeated him.”

“Soon after, in less than three months, Situ Haoyue once again found a Dragon Clan Disciple at the Earth Immortal Realm Late Stage to duel with you.”

“This time, you still defeated your opponent, but you didn't win with an overwhelming advantage; instead, you only managed to win with great difficulty.”

“And now, on the one-year anniversary of your arrival in the Primordial Void Realm, Situ Haoyue has once again found someone to challenge you.”

“This time, you didn't even need to think; this person's Realm must be at the Earth Immortal Realm Great Perfection.”

“Sure enough, when Situ Haoyue brought you to the Dragon Clan's sparring arena, the person you were to spar with was a long-renowned Grand Void Ancient Dragon at the Earth Immortal Realm Great Perfection.”

“As the urging sounds from the surrounding crowd began, you both started to fight.”

“This time, you, not surprisingly, still clinched the final victory.”

“At this point, not only was Situ Haoyue shocked, but everyone present who watched the match looked at you in astonishment.”

“They hadn't expected that you, at the Earth Immortal Realm Early Stage, could defeat a kinsman at the Earth Immortal Realm Great Perfection.”

“It should be known that, normally, within the same Realm, the combat power of a Grand Void Ancient Dragon far surpasses that of a normal Human Race member.”

“Under these circumstances, you still achieved victory.”

“If your first victory showed your extraordinary talent, and your second victory proved you were a Prodigy.”

“But now, with your third victory, you can no longer be described as a Prodigy, and each time you won, it felt like you struggled greatly, as if one mistake would lead to defeat.”

“This gave everyone in the Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan a misconception: what exactly was your true strength? Even Situ Haoyue was very perplexed; he even wanted to personally fight you.”

“However, even if he suppressed his Realm to fight you, it wouldn't be completely fair, so he ultimately abandoned that idea.”

““Wait, next time...””

“Situ Haoyue was about to tell you that next time he planned to find someone at the Heavenly Immortal Realm to fight you, but his words were cut short by you.”

“You pulled Situ Haoyue aside.”

““Big Brother, let me be honest with you. I truly can't defeat someone at the Heavenly Immortal Realm. You want me, an Earth Immortal Early Stage, to fight a Heavenly Immortal? Isn't that absurd?””

““Is that true?””

“Situ Haoyue looked at you with a puzzled expression, always feeling that what you said wasn't very credible.”

“Seeing his expression, you told him how few people throughout history had managed to defeat a Heavenly Immortal while still in the Earth Immortal Realm.”

“You told Situ Haoyue that you were only able to be stronger than normal people because you had awakened the direct Bloodline of the Grand Void Ancient Dragon, but you hadn't reached the point where you could challenge those of a higher Realm.”

“Upon hearing this, Situ Haoyue's tightly furrowed brows immediately relaxed, especially after you said that the reason you could defeat an Earth Immortal Great Perfection was because you had awakened the direct Bloodline of the Grand Void Ancient Dragon; his face even showed an expression of relief.”

“After you 'tricked' him like this, Situ Haoyue completely believed what you said and attributed your strength to his Bloodline.”

“At this moment, Situ Haoyue's face lit up with joy, and he immediately pulled you back to his mansion to host a grand banquet.”

“However, only four people attended this banquet: you, Xuanyuan Tianji, and the siblings Situ Haoyue.”

“At the table, Situ Haoyue brought out his long-treasured Immortal Wine to entertain you.”

“Situ Haoyue told you that drinking this Immortal Wine could aid in Cultivation.”

“Hearing him say that, you took a small sip. The Immortal Wine rolled down your throat into your abdomen, and at the same time, a warm current spread from your abdomen throughout your body.”

“It actually works?”

“You hadn't expected that Situ Haoyue had collected such fine Immortal Wine. This was no longer just wine; its effects were no less than those of the immortal fruits you had obtained in the Vast Immortal Domain.”

“Time quickly passed to the latter half of the night.”

“Now, you had drunk and eaten, and your previously intoxicated expression instantly changed.”

“You looked at Situ Haoyue with a serious expression.”

““Big Brother Haoyue, just say what you want to say!””

“Seeing you get straight to the point, Situ Haoyue no longer held back.”

““I hope to follow you and leave the Primordial Immortal Realm to return to the Major Thousand Worlds!””

““Ah???””

“Upon hearing Situ Haoyue's request, your face was full of question marks, and you even rubbed your ears, wondering if you had misheard.”

“However, when you saw Situ Haoyue's firm gaze, you knew he wasn't joking.”

““Don't your Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan usually stay in the Chaos Void? Why do you want to return to the Major Thousand Worlds?””

“You couldn't understand Situ Haoyue's thoughts. From Clan Leader Situ's words earlier, you already knew that the Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan belonged to the neutral faction; they didn't want to get involved in these wars.”

““Alas!””

““The current Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan is divided into two factions, and Little Yue and I belong to one of them.””

“Situ Haoyue told you that after the Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan arrived in the depths of the Chaos Void, only a few people from their faction followed, while the rest chose to follow the Primordial Dragon Emperor to cover their retreat, thereby creating a path for the Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan.”

“Situ Haoyue told you that Clan Chief Situ's lineage followed the Primordial Dragon Emperor's request and had always lived in this Chaos Void, but his lineage was filled with a desire for battle.”

“Following that, Situ Haoyue told you another truth.”

““Clan Chief told me that my father has died, but I have a premonition that he is not dead and is very likely in the Weiyang Immortal Domain.””

““Your father?””

“You looked at Situ Haoyue with a sudden realization. So Situ Haoyue wanted to return to the Major Thousand Worlds to find his father, and then everything made sense.”

““Yes! My father is a Dragon Emperor. You know, an Immortal Sovereign Realm Grand Void Ancient Dragon, if he doesn't want to die, he can't easily die.””

“Upon hearing that Situ Haoyue's father was a Dragon Emperor, a bold idea immediately popped into your mind.”

“If everything was as the other party said, then Situ Haoyue's father must be fighting against the Eerie Clan.”

“If you helped Situ Haoyue find his father, wouldn't that mean your side would also have an Immortal Sovereign expert as a backer?”

“Thinking of this, you inwardly decided to take Situ Haoyue to leave the Primordial Void Realm.”

“More importantly, you couldn't return to the Vast Immortal Domain at all now; only with Situ Haoyue's help could you return to the Vast Immortal Domain.”

“Now that the other party had taken the initiative, why wouldn't you be happy to oblige?”
