Madam Zhou's Story

"She's a wife of three Immortals," Jian Xue continued.

That was indeed what Ming Ze had expected, but how could there be three?

"All empresses in the Seven Realms never remarry even if their husbands have left. Of course, it's impossible for them to remarry. Their husbands aren't dead and they aren't divorced, legally they can't remarry, and what woman would remarry when their husband was the best man of his era. That Madam Zhou, however, was truly shameless. Since her husband left, instead of looking after her husband's kingdom, she wandered around, then after a few eras, she built a new relationship with a young man, even going so far as to remarry, which shouldn't be legal. The problem is, that young man managed to become an Immortal in his era. Unfortunately, the same thing happened again after a few eras. When people realized her behavior, they started cursing her and didn't let her do it anymore."

Jian Xue's face turned very red when she said that, either she was tired from talking too much or from disgust with the woman.

"Hmph, what's worse, she even kept all the treasures from her husbands for herself, exchanging some Immortal Weapons to extend her life," the girl added.

Ming Ze, "..."

His eyes stared at the island that was now far behind with an uncertain expression.

Something like this didn't even exist in the novels he had read. How could there be such a woman?

Perhaps saying every Immortal was the protagonist of their respective generation was not wrong at all.

The protagonists should not have had the problem of their wives remarrying even when they divorced, let alone them not divorcing at all.

'Does she intend to make me her next husband?' Ming Ze wondered, making his body tremble.

Fortunately, he was warned by the System.

It was just that, he couldn't deny the woman's charm. No wonder she succeeded in her trick to get a new husband.

Of course, all empresses must be beautiful. If they really wanted a new husband, it shouldn't be difficult, there were too many men willing to be their husbands.

However, they definitely didn't like such a thing that basically just insulted their noble identities.

Ming Ze shook his head, stopping to think about things like this.

"Don't tell me you're interested in that woman?" asked Jian Xue suddenly.

"Don't say nonsense!" Ming Ze instantly snapped at her again for her words, making her frown.

After that, they didn't speak anymore.

Ming Ze continued to stare out the window, looking forward to arriving at the opposite land.

Over time, he felt the aura of a more magnificent world ahead.

It seemed that in terms of aura, the Central Region was indeed stronger.

When morning and the sun rose in the far east, Ming Ze finally saw a vast, seemingly boundless land with many tall mountains that each seemed to have a peak reaching the sky.

"So this is the Central Region," he said in a low voice, feeling more excited as he sensed more life there.

At the edge, he saw a harbor city that was even bigger than the last city.

It didn't just have one harbor, but there were five harbors built in different areas.

And the ships coming in weren't just coming from the west, they were also coming from the north and south.

When he got close to the city, Ming Ze slowed down the speed of his carriage without making it descend.

He saw that there were other carriages flying over the harbors, and there were even young men flying standing on giant birds. This showed that there was no restriction on flying.

"Ming Ze, you can drop me off here, I'll go myself!" Jian Xue spoke again when they were above the harbors.

"No, I need your help now to show me the way," Ming Ze replied, disapproving when he heard she wanted to get off the carriage.

"What?" Jian Xue looked as if she couldn't believe she was being asked to be a guide.

"Where do you want to go?" Despite looking angry, she still asked to find out the location he wanted to go to.

"Ancient Heaven Academy, take me there first. After that, you can go wherever you want," Ming Ze replied.

Although he could ask others, he wasn't in the mood to get out of this carriage, so he asked Jian Xue.

"Do you want to go there?" Surprisingly Jian Xue looked surprised.

"Why?" asked Ming Ze.

"No, I happen to want to go there as well since I've been a student of that academy since last year," Jian Xue replied.

Ming Ze rolled his eyes at that.

"Alright, now we can go there together," the girl added, no longer asking to get off.

Only, she asked, "do you want to be a teacher at that academy?"

"Teacher?" The question somewhat puzzled Ming Ze.

"Your cultivation has already reached the limit, there, any student who has reached the Infinite Sovereign Realm will be considered graduated, can no longer study, can only become a teacher. If you want to learn, you can only learn by yourself by understanding the various relics there. However, the elders will not allow outsiders to do so. Therefore, you must apply to become a teacher first." Jian Xue explained.

The so-called relics there were mostly the relics of Immortals.

Since the academy taught everyone who enrolled as students, there was no shortage of Immortals who had studied there when they were young.

Once they became Immortals, they also left behind various legacies and treasures at the academy.

Those various relics were what made the academy's foundation so strong, defeating the foundations of many Immortal Sects or Clans.

It was just that, Ming Ze wondered if he really should become a teacher.

He wasn't sure if he could because his cultivation didn't come from experience. It directly appeared within his body.

What if he taught a disciple wrong that he caused the disciple to explode due to cultivation chaos.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt strange.

However, he really wanted to come to that academy to have a look. After all, it really was a place with many secrets. He might even be able to know where the Immortals went from the academy.
