Chapter 129

When he returned to the Yue Clan Castle, unlike in canon, Zhi Zun and Night Empress didn't come to talk with him and even offered to teach the girls.

He was also surprised to find that all the girls except Wuhen had reached the Innate Level 8.

But when the girls saw him in such a sorry state, they quickly grabbed him and pulled him into a room before bombarding him with questions. They only calmed down after he answered their questions.

He was then locked in his room, not allowed to go outside until he completely recovered, and the girls also dropped their practice to take care of him.

Only Xiu'er was the one who looked at him with her brows furrowed together.

After a week, Fourth mother also came to the Clan Castle. When she looked at him, she didn't say anything but request the girls to outside as she had something to ask him.

Only Xiu'er was allowed to stay inside.

After the girls went out, Fourth patted his head before asking, "San'er, what thing is troubling you?"

He was surprised to hear this sentence. He quickly waved his hand and said, "It's nothing, Mother."

"San'er, you know you can't hide it from me even if you want." She said with a smile.

As he wanted to deny her, he couldn't bring himself to do that and sighed.

Xiu'er who was standing at the side listening, said, "Do you encounter something in the Vergo Temple?"

Yue Yang sighed again before saying slowly, "Yes, I encounter my past self."

When Xiu'er heard him, a light flashed in her eyes as she understood everything. She also sighed, "So, you're still afraid of it."

He nodded his head, "Yes, even though I understood the true meaning of life in the end but I still lost everything because of it in my past life. I... I don't want to experience that feeling again." As he said that he placed his hand on his heart and fear appeared in his eyes.

Seeing him in this state, Xiu'er wanted to say something, but Fourth mother waved her hand to stop her.

She then held his hand and said, "San'er, it alright to afraid sometimes but if you'll be afraid of it your entire life then you'll definitely lose everything you have. After all, don't forget it is still a part of you and you can't change this fact."

After saying that she rubbed his head again before leaving the room, Xiu'er also followed behind leaving him alone to think about it.

For the next entire week, he contemplated on his mother's words.

After making his decision, he called everyone to his room.

When the girls saw him they felt that something had changed about him but seeing his serious expression, they dropped the idea to ask him about it.

"The day after tomorrow, I'm going to the Tong Tian Tower alone."

Hearing him say that the girls were a little surprised. Xue Wu Xia thought for some time before saying, "That's a good idea. We'll train a little more with Sister Xiu'er before following you. Even though we're stro-"

Before she could finish, he shook his head and said, "No, Xiu'er is going with me. For you guys, I have asked someone to teach you guys in our absence."

"What? Who have you asked?" Everyone asked in unison.

"You will meet them tomorrow."

Tomorrow, Night Empress visited the Yue Clan Castle to take Luo Hua and Mao Mao to train. This scene surprised the girls. Before Night Empress left, she stared at Yue Yang for few seconds and a deep light flashed in her eyes before she left with a smile.

At the same time, Princess Qian Qian's mysterious teacher had also come to bring her back. Yue Yang passed the Prison Emperor's Divine Sword that had become a little more powerful after bathing in his Nirvana Flames with the two energy spheres. The fact that Qian Qian was the descendant of the Prison Emperor not only surprised her but also her teacher.

Yi Nan's aunt came and left with Yi Nan.

Grandma Wu Teng came to get Yue Bing.

Yue Yu's master had also come and took Yue Yu away, chuckling all along saying that she couldn't teach her student anymore in terms of martial art skills, but she still had various knowledge and life experiences that she could share with her disciple.

Yue Yu was naturally willing to spend some time with her master, because to her, she was a mother-like figure that she lacked.

But the most surprising thing was that Zhi Zun chose Xue Wu Xia to train herself.

To the Xue Clan, this was a dream-like opportunity. No one in the Xue Clan would ever think that Xue Wu Xia would receive the Supreme Elder of Humans, Zhi Zun's favor.

She also looked at Yue Yang and nodded her head in approval before leaving.

As Shui Wuhen wanted to accompany him, he told her that she was learning runes from his fourth mother and after few months, he would be back to take her with him.

When Wuhen learned that she would be learning runes, a smile appeared on her beautiful face and she quickly went to Fourth Mother.

He looked at her back with a smile before looking towards the sky. He took a long breath before his expression changed.

His face turned serious and when he looked at the distance, his gaze was like a person who stood at the top and nothing could enter his eyes. His eyes were as if he was standing at the top of the world looking down on everything.

"It looks like you have understood now." Xiu'er giggled and said.

He nodded his head and said, "Yes, if I stay the way I was, then I'll never be able to stand at the top with you."

After saying that he turned around and his expression also returned to normal but his momentum was completely different. Even he himself didn't have an idea about it.

Xiu'er looked at his back and a smile appeared on her face as she mumbled, "Standing on the top? Hehe... finally you're on the right path. I'm very happy to meet someone like you. You'll definitely surpass me one day."

At night Xiu'er visited Yue Yang's room to talk about the power of Laws.

Yue Yang hadn't heard about them so he was a little surprised to know that there was this type of thing in this world.

After he learned about the laws from her, he found ways to cultivate them in the knowledge provided by God.

But there was only one restriction, he could only cultivate the law which he had comprehended. He could never cultivate the other laws before comprehending them first.

It meant without having a proper understanding he could never learn more about it.

According to Xiu'er, he currently comprehended Fire, Space, and Time laws, which were high-level laws. Not only that but he even had another mysterious law power inside him but his comprehension was still weak to cultivate it.

Xiu'er also told him that she had cultivated Law of Slaughter, Space, Life and Death, Destruction, and Eternal Life. Not only that, she had cultivated her sword into the power of Law.

Yue Yang nodded his head and only now understood why was she so powerful with the ability to destroy the world.

He then asked if there were others who also had cultivated powers of law.

She then told him that except for Zhi Zun, the others only had little to no understanding of laws.

Zhi Zun had also cultivated Space Law, Destruction Law, and Slaughter Law.

The next day, he advised Xue Tan Lang, Prince of Tian Luo, and others to first get experience in lower floors before entering the Sixth floor like him before he left for the Tong Tian Tower.
