Celestial 'War God' Return-Chapter 260: Talk And Idea

Tantai Lingyan played a recording of Xiao Meng’s confession for Feng Xiaofang and Yan Huoling to hear, which really shocked them.

"Where did you get that confession, Lingyan?"

Tantai Lingyan explained to them. "Old Huang and Old Mu managed to capture Xiao Hua when she tried to attack Yin’er, and Xiao’er captured Xiao Meng when she was investigating him."

Since they had met Tang Xiao at the Xuan Clan’s auction house, Feng Xiaofang and Yan Huoling were no longer surprised by his ability to capture Xiao Meng, as he was able to evade so many cultivators far stronger than her there.

Sun Qian spoke to them. "We couldn’t persuade those first-grade clans to unite against them, so we specifically came here to meet you two. The Feng Clan is also a first-grade clan, like them. I hope you two can talk to them about this matter and convince them to unite against those heretic clans, or they will continue to act rampantly on Earth II."

"I understand that, Old Sun." Feng Xiaofang sighed softly before continuing. "However, those clans are no longer like they were in the past, and they only care about their affairs now. Long Yin and the Long Clan are the strongest among us, and they should be able to fight the Xie Clan, but they never make a move against those heretics."

Yan Huoling added. "Huang Jinhong no longer interferes in the Huang Clan’s affairs, and we haven’t seen him for a long time. Although Huang Xiaotian is in charge of everything in that clan, he lacks his father’s courage. Huang Xianyu never interferes in their clan’s affairs, and she is more focused on her alchemy, so we can’t expect their clan to help us."

"What about the Wang and Liu Clans?" 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

"Haish." Feng Xiaofang sighed as he shook his head. "Wang Jishan may be the patriarch of the Wang Clan, but all the clan’s decisions are in the hands of Wang Fuxi. However, that woman is more busy with her group and ordinary human affairs, and she rarely comes back here now, so I’m sure she doesn’t know much about the situation here. We can only hope for the Liu Clan, but we must first speak to Liu Xun and Liu Xing."

Although Sun Qian and Tang Huang agreed with that, they were aware that persuading Liu Xun and Liu Xing would not be simple. Then, Tantai Lingyan asked them. "What do you think if we go to the northern region?"

"The Xue Clan?"

"Yes." Tantai Lingyan nodded at them. "Xue Jing and Xue Lan don’t like meddling with outside affairs, but I’m sure they would reconsider if they found out about the heretics’ plans. If those people succeed in taking over the second-grade clans, I am confident they will first target the Xue Clan before moving on to other first-grade clans, as that clan is the weakest in overall strength; therefore, we can use this reasoning to persuade them. The main problem is that no men can go to the Xue Clan, and all the women will chase them away."

"I’m still confused about the Xue Clan." They looked at Tian Huang. "How have they managed to produce offspring if they’ve isolated themselves from men? I know Xue Jing and Xue Lan, but I’ve never heard of their family, and their clan has been female-only for generations."

"No one knows about the matter because the Xue Clan is too secretive, and no one has ever heard of the presence of men in their clan." Feng Xiaofang turned to his wife. "What if you go to their clan with Lingyan?"

"Alright." Yan Huoling then spoke to Tantai Lingyan. "We can’t just go to the Xue Clan, and we have to inform Xue Jing beforehand about our plans to go there. I will contact her now to schedule an appointment, and we will leave for the northern region a few days before the appointment date."

"Are you going to ask Feng Shen to take us to that region?"

Yan Huoling nodded at her. "The fastest way to reach that region is by relying on Feng Shen’s speed; otherwise, it will take us several days to get there, which would be a waste of time."

"Alright."

Yan Huoling contacted Xue Jing to arrange a meeting, but the woman did not give her an immediate answer, so they had to wait for news from her before arranging their departure.

After their discussion, Feng Xiaofang took Sun Quan and Tang Huang with him because it was already late. However, they did not rest and talked about other things, especially about Tang Xiao.

"Do you know anything about Xiao’er’s master?"

Tantai Lingyan shook her head in response. "In fact, Xiao’er himself doesn’t know the identity of his master, Huoling. When he recovered from his injuries, his master was already dead because he sacrificed himself for him."

"Can you tell me more about Xiao’er?"

"Phew." Tantai Lingyan exhaled softly. "I already know some things about Xiao’er, but I can’t tell you anything without his permission. You shouldn’t ask about him, and you can ask him yourself in the future, or I’ll feel bad for you."

Yan Huoling nodded in understanding. "Regarding Xiao’er, I feel uneasy about my daughter."

"Why?"

"You know that Yao’er has always liked the late Tang Ye, right?"

"I know." Tantai Lingyan naturally knew about that matter. "However, Yao’er never expressed her feelings to the late Tang Ye in the past because he fell in love with Zhao Jing, and she chose to stay in the outside world to protect them."

Yan Huoling released a soft sigh. "Even though she could never admit her feelings to him, she always loved him, and she felt guilty because she couldn’t protect him."

"All because of Wang Fuxi."

"If Wang Fuxi hadn’t forbidden Yao’er to save Tang Ye, he and Zhao Jing would never have died at the hands of those people." Yan Huoling turned to Tantai Lingyan. "Nineteen years have passed since their deaths, and that’s not a short time. My daughter’s feelings suddenly changed, and—"

"Xiao’er."

Yan Huoling continued. "I realized this matter when Yao’er first brought Xiao’er to Earth II, and I could see it in the way she looked at him."

"Do you think Yao’er has an interest in Xiao’er because he resembles his father?"

"Yes." Yan Huoling nodded at her. "I can see Yao’er’s attraction to Xiao’er in her eyes, but I know my daughter well; she is attracted to him because he resembles his father. She doesn’t want to admit the truth to me, and I’m worried that her feelings for him will become a problem for them in the future."

Tantai Lingyan nodded in understanding at that. "Actually, Xiao’er is a dual cultivator, and he already has two wives now."

"Eh? Is Xiao’er really a dual cultivator?"

"That’s right." Tantai Lingyan replied with a nod. "Yao’er has already met his two wives, and he already has a third wife in mind."

"Who are those three women?"

"You know two of them, but you don’t know the third woman because she used to be a mortal." Tantai Lingyan chuckled at her curious expression. "His first wife is Tang Yin, his second wife is Xing Xing, and his third woman is Mu Qingge."

Yan Huoling raised an eyebrow slightly. "Did Xiao’er really marry Yin’er? How could Mu Qingge fall in love with him?"

"Yes." Tantai Lingyan confirmed it with a nod. "Xiao’er has changed since he fell into the ravine and nearly died, and his unknown master did something to him to save his life. I can’t explain it in detail, but he and Yin’er have no longer had any blood ties since then."

"That’s weird." Yan Huoling was genuinely curious about it, but Tantai Lingyan’s expression clearly showed that she didn’t want to talk about it. "What about Mu Qingge? What made her change her mind about marriage? However, I find her decision strange because Xiao’er already has two wives, but she’s willing to accept him as her future husband."

"Xiao’er and Mu Qingge’s relationship happened because of Mu Yan." Yan Huoling seemed confused by this, prompting Tantai Lingyan to explain the real situation to her.

Yan Huoling’s eyes widened in shock upon hearing this. "Is it true that Zhao Jing’s soul resides in Mu Yan’s soul space? How did they know about this?"

"At first, I also found it difficult to believe, but Zhao Jing’s soul has been residing in Mu Yan’s soul space since her death, and her soul influenced her. That’s why Mu Qingge was willing to accept Xiao’er because she felt guilty towards her daughter, and her daughter had never asked her for anything since childhood." Yan Huoling found it challenging to believe because she had never heard of such a thing before. "To tell you the truth, Xiao’er’s unknown master was not an ordinary cultivator, and he came from another realm."

"What do you mean by another realm?" Yan Huoling asked in confusion.

"Earth II is not the only cultivation world in this universe, but there are still many other worlds out there, which are divided into four categories: lower, middle, upper, and supreme." Yan Huoling was stunned with a look of shock after Tantai Lingyan said that. "If it weren’t for Xiao’er’s unknown master, we would never have known that there were so many other cultivation worlds out there."

Yan Huoling took a deep breath. "Does that mean Xiao’er knows how to travel to other worlds? Does that mean there are still other cultivation levels after the Saint Realm?"
