Beastmaster of the Ages-Chapter 3558 - Immortal of the Aeons

As she left, Jiguang dressed herself and looked at Tianming weirdly. "You can't do it that way next time, okay? It hurts." Given her motherly nature, she had endured even though it meant spoiling him.

"Okay...." Though he nodded, he didn't think the next time would be up to her.

"Also, there's something else you need to know...."

"What is it?" He had a bad feeling about this.

"Sister Xiyue knows what happened between us. Your mask fell off back then and she saw your face. That's why, when she first met you, she immediately knew that you were that naughty boy from the Yin-Yang World."

Tianming coughed out a mouthful of blood. He was the only one who had been left in the dark! He even thought he had given his mother-in-law the impression that he was an upright young man. freewebnøvel.coɱ

"The two of you are far too good at acting—you didn't even react at all! I was the only one stupidly faking everything," Tianming said, floored.

"Just think about how you’ll face her. That isn’t something I can help you with." She couldn't help but chuckle at the sight of Tianming being so distraught. He was much too fun to tease.

"It's fine. I can deal with it."

"What do you plan to do about Yaoyao?"

"Huh?"

"She no longer has her Suishen Blood, so she isn’t eligible to marry anyone else. As a man, you have to take responsibility after benefiting from her. Despite her appearance, she's actually quite a delicate girl. You can't let her down," Jiguang earnestly said before turning to leave.

Tianming slapped his forehead. He hadn't expected Jiguang to think about the wider repercussions, but that was simply how she was as a person. She also loved Suishen Yao dearly, and the reason she hadn't come clean about knowing Tianming's true identity was for her sake.

He had truly changed a lot in recent years, becoming far more direct and straightforward in the process. With his mind made up, he decided to explain the situation to the former valley lord while Suishen Xiyue and Jiguang went on to make plans.

He found the old man penning a book. He was writing a passage where the protagonist, Lin Feng, held an elder sister in one hand and the younger sister in the other.

"Why’re you writing something so salacious? I'm ashamed to be seen with you!" Tianming exclaimed.

"Shut up! I'm leaving it to the readers' imaginations. There's nothing wrong with that!" the old man snapped, wide eyed.

"Ah, apologies. I was the shallow one." Tianming squatted down closer to the old man.

"What's up?"

"Do you have anything I can... learn a thing or two from?"

"You should've said so earlier! We're the same kind of people, so there's no use pretending to be something you aren’t!" The former valley lord took out a book titled 'Immortal of the Aeons' from his spatial ring. "This is fresh out of the oven. I've spent a whole year working on it. It's an amazing tale like no other, filled with twists and turns. But oh, don't go spreading it. It's only for the most discerning of readers."

Tianming had thought that the old man only wrote because he was bored during his imprisonment. Little did he expect that he actually seemed to hone his craft with a passion. The writing in the few pages Tianming had glimpsed seemed legit. "I'm liking what I see."

"Of course! Any work of Jian Qingfeng is sure to be good!"

"Old man, let's get to business. Something happened at Myriadpath Valley."

The former valley lord furrowed his brows. "Is it my people?"

"Fortunately, no. With Qitian Muyue protecting them from the shadows, they're fine for now."

The old man breathed a sigh of relief. Tianming went on to explain the Blissful Union and more about himself. They were the most crucial and explosive secrets that he had yet to reveal. Naturally, he didn't come clean about the Primordial Chaos Beasts or sky plunderers.

The former valley lord froze up with his mouth open when he heard it. The wormhole expressway alone was so far out of his imagination that he seemed to have completely no idea what Tianming was talking about. And if not even he had any idea of something like it existing, the Three Exalted Houses definitely didn't either, so they would never expect Tianming to be at Skydome with the Myriadpath Celestial Formation deactivated.

The reason Tianming was able to put up a fight against them was because he had so many things in his arsenal that were outside of anyone's imagination, like his ability to undo formation seals, Yin Chen's surveillance abilities, and the wormhole expressway. It was impossible to come up with precautions against something one didn't even know existed.

Without those trump cards, Tianming wouldn't be able to leave Myriadpath Valley.

"Ah!" the former valley lord cried out all of a sudden.

"What is it?" Tianming asked, startled.

"I just got a spark of inspiration! It's going to help out with my creative work!" He started scrawling things onto paper with passion and fervor once more.

Tianming speechlessly watched before he went on to explain his plans. "I'll give Qitian Muyue's transmission stone to you. You'll be able to ask her about House Qingchuan at any time."

Tianming was also worried that something would happen to them. If he went to Skydome and the worst happened, he wouldn't be able to rush back. They had to split their forces. The Grand Myriadpath Ruins would stay near Myriadpath Valley while the Blissful Union went to Skydome and Infinitum.

"Alright!" The former valley lord nodded. Fortunately, the Grand Myriadpath Ruins hadn't been properly transferred to Tianming yet, so he could continue using it. He was also more familiar with Myriadpath Valley, so there was no better person to leave behind to watch over it.

Tianming didn't dally and began to set out. Jiguang told Suishen Xiyue about the Three Exalted Houses' deployments, as well as the wormhole expressway. Suishen Xiyue's impression of Tianming grew even stronger when she heard the plan. The three young ones—Suishen Yao, Zhao, and Shuang—were absolutely clueless about how Tianming had obtained the legacy of the Yin-Yang World.

"Isn't that the treasure the Qitian loser claimed to have some time ago?!" Suishen Zhao said.

"That's right! I've also heard of the fortuna-class ship from the Yin-Yang World. It was the very thing that made all the Qitians think they were the strongest house in the astralscape. How'd it end up with Tianming?!" Suishen Shuang said.

"I know! All those rumors about the natives of the Yin-Yang World were actually referring to you! Brother, you're the Mistrunner!" Suishen Zhao exclaimed.
