Chapter 673: Episode 18 Chapter 38 The Green-bearded Old Man

In the Zixuan Mansion of Mist City.

Jiang Lan and Yi Feng were enjoying their tea and chatting with laughter.

"Hou Fei is indeed tyrannical, he actually frightened more than ten Divine Kings into behaving more humbly," Yi Feng said, laughing heartily.

The scene of Hou Fei reprimanding the Divine Kings was known to Jiang Lan, Yi Feng, and the few other Divine Kings of the Zixuan Mansion, such as Zhou Qiulin. However, they did not stop Hou Fei from his admonishments.

Jiang Lan nodded, "Hou Fei’s scolding might not be a bad thing."

"Exactly," Yi Feng agreed, nodding, "Qin Yu and those Divine Kings can’t be bothered to care about them, and they don’t usually have any demands on them. These dozens of Divine Kings really treat the Zixuan Mansion as a leisure place, each of them playing chess and discussing Dao in the Flowing Water Garden, acting like they’re some esteemed seniors. Hmph, even if Hou Fei didn’t scold them, after a few days, I would have discussed this with Qin Yu."

Yi Feng had long been dissatisfied with this situation.

They had been defeated, and Qin Yu had spared those Divine Kings, allowing them to serve as servants for the Zixuan Mansion. Yet those Divine Kings had been putting on airs and behaving pretentiously.

"Uncle Yi Feng, Uncle Lan, you’re here," said the voice of Qin Yu.

At this moment, Qin Yu had just come back from Thunder Punishment City. Seeing Qin Yu, Jiang Lan and Yi Feng immediately added another teacup and called him over, "Qin Yu, come and join us for some tea."

Qin Yu indeed had something to discuss with Uncle Lan, so he walked over and sat down.

"Uncle Lan, do you remember this?" After taking a sip of tea, Qin Yu took out the golden Ten Thousand People Seal that he had snatched right under the eyes of Thunder Punishment Heavenly Venerate.

Seeing the golden seal in Qin Yu’s hand, both Jiang Lan’s and Yi Feng’s eyes lit up.

"The Ten Thousand People Seal?" Curiosity was evident in Jiang Lan’s eyes.

Qin Yu handed the Ten Thousand People Seal directly to Jiang Lan, "Uncle Lan, since you already possess the Earth Seal, I’ll give you this Ten Thousand People Seal as well. With this, you’ll have a great chance of becoming the Heavenly Venerable." 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

"Become a Heavenly Venerable?" Jiang Lan smiled faintly, shaking his head, "If this were the past, I might have wished to become a Heavenly Venerable. But since living a peaceful life in the Zixuan Mansion, spending my leisure time with Qin Shuang and Qin Si the kids or discussing the world with Brother Yi Feng and your father, I’ve been quite content and comfortable. Now, I don’t have much desire for the position of Heavenly Venerable."

Qin Yu was taken aback.

Uncle Lan doesn’t want it? Then to whom should he give the Ten Thousand People Seal?

"Brother Jiang Lan, Qin Yu means well, so please accept it," Yi Feng urged from the side.

Qin Yu also looked at Jiang Lan expectantly, feeling like he owed Jiang Lan quite a lot; if he could help Jiang Lan, it would ease his own heart.

Jiang Lan looked at Qin Yu, then took the Ten Thousand People Seal with a smile, saying, "Well, I’m indeed quite curious about the ’Time Reversal’ described in the Ten Thousand People Seal. It would be good to comprehend it a bit. However, the emergence of a new Heavenly Venerable is also imminent. I really wonder who the new Heavenly Venerable will be?"

"A new Heavenly Venerable emerging soon? What do you mean by that?" Qin Yu frowned, sensing a different undertone in that statement.

"Uncle Lan, aren’t there only two ways to become a Heavenly Venerable, one is to acquire the three parts of a Heavenly Venerable Spiritual Treasure, and the other is to fully comprehend the ’Time Law’? If neither you nor the Asura God King ’Luo Fan’ can fully comprehend the Time Law, and neither of you can collect all three parts of the Heavenly Venerable Spiritual Treasure, how could a new Heavenly Venerable emerge?" Qin Yu asked, puzzled.

According to Qin Yu’s understanding.

If Jiang Lan and Luo Fan both cannot comprehend the Time Law and fail to collect the Three Seals, the birth of a new Heavenly Venerable should indeed be postponed.

"Haha... Qin Yu, do you really think that if Luo Fan and I can never grasp the Time Law, the new Heavenly Venerable will never descend?" Jiang Lan said with a smile as he looked at Qin Yu.

Qin Yu was slightly startled.

Jiang Lan continued with a smile, "That is impossible. Just like the last time, when the Divine Kings were unable to determine the victor, the Heavenly Venerables intervened secretly, and that Heavenly Venerable Spiritual Treasure flew directly to Xiao Yao God King, hence he became a Heavenly Venerable."

"I believe that if this time, Luo Fan and I can’t understand the ’Time Law’ for a long time, or if we fail to gather the three Heavenly Venerable Spiritual Treasures, the Heavenly Venerables might have to intervene once again," Jiang Lan said with a light smile.

Upon hearing this, Qin Yu thought, "Heavenly Venerables intervening? The right to decide the new Heavenly Venerable probably isn’t for the other Heavenly Venerables. I guess, in the end, the one secretly intervening must be my second brother Lin Meng."

Now all three parts of the Floating World Seal—the Cangtian Seal, the Earth Seal, and the Ten Thousand People Seal—have appeared.

The birth of a new Heavenly Venerable is also imminent.

******

After Jiang Lan obtained the Ten Thousand People Seal, he returned to the New Universe. Because in the Divine World, even Qin Yu would find it hard to sustain a space accelerated by a hundred thousand times.

Whereas in the New Universe, Qin Yu could easily maintain a region with time accelerated by a million-fold.

The Dark Night faded away, and the Daylight cast its light, heralding a new day.

Qin Yu and his wife, Jiang Li, stepped out of their room. They, along with their two sons, Qin Si and Qin Shuang, began eating breakfast. To say nothing of reaching Qin Yu’s level of cultivation, even an ordinary cultivator no longer needed to eat food.

However, in the eyes of Qin Yu and the others, the meal was not about satiating hunger, but rather a culinary enjoyment.

"Dad, Mom, I want to discuss something with you," Qin Shuang said immediately after finishing his meal, addressing Qin Yu and Jiang Li.

Qin Yu and Jiang Li exchanged glances, curious about what Little Shuang was up to. Qin Yu said with a smile, "Little Shuang, if you have something to say, just say it."

Taking a deep breath, Qin Shuang then spoke up, "Dad, Mom, I know that Zixuan Mansion has a passage to the New Universe, and the New Universe has many channels leading to the Immortal, Demon, and Demon World, and even to the Mortal World. I want to go to the Immortal, Demon, and Mortal Worlds for a visit."

"Visiting the Immortal, Demon, and Mortal Worlds?" Jiang Li frowned.

"Little Shuang, you haven’t even reached the strength of a Divine Being, so don’t hurry to wander around. Wait until you’ve passed your Divine Tribulation and reached the Low Grade Divine Realm, then Mom will agree to let you go out," Jiang Li advised.

Qin Shuang’s face immediately fell.

"To reach the Low Grade Divine Realm..." Qin Shuang’s voice trailed off in a long whine.

"Little brother, don’t worry, it’s easy to reach the Low Grade Divine Realm," Qin Si offered encouragement from the side.

"Hmph, Big Brother, you reached the Upper Heavenly God Realm soon after you were born, and with your current strength, you could probably hold your own against a Divine King. I’m not comparable to you," Qin Shuang said with some annoyance before rising and leaving.

"This child." Jiang Li shook her head and sighed.

Qin Yu, however, furrowed his brows.

Qin Yu knew that deep in Qin Shuang’s heart, there was always a hint of discontent, although Qin Si was very good to her. However, Qin Shuang’s cultivation speed was just too slow.

"Little Si, you go out first, I have something to talk about with your mother," Qin Yu said with a smile.

"Yes, Father," Qin Si immediately stood up and left.

Then, only Qin Yu and Jiang Li were left in the room, and Jiang Li looked at Qin Yu in confusion: "Brother Yu, what’s the matter?"

"About Little Shuang, haven’t you noticed?" Qin Yu frowned, "Little Shuang is our child, and both you and I are Divine Kings. Logically, Little Shuang’s aptitude should at least be on par with the descendants of the Eight Divine Clans, right? The descendants of the Eight Divine Clans usually pass the Divine Tribulation and become a Low Grade Divine Being by the age of five or six."

"Not long ago, when I went to Thunder Punishment City, I met a child named Zhou Qing, who was only about eleven or twelve years old. He had reached the Middle Grade Divine Being Realm, yet he was the weakest among his generation. As for Little Shuang, she is already twenty years old and hasn’t even reached the status of a Low Grade Divine Being..." Qin Yu couldn’t help but shake his head and sigh.

His two sons, the older one, Qin Si, had surprisingly good aptitude, but the aptitude of the second son was surprisingly low.

"Brother Yu, what do you think we should do?" Jiang Li also had no solution.

Qin Yu pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Changing a person’s aptitude involves the essence of the soul, something not even a Heavenly Venerable can do. We wait. We wait until my new universe is fully successful. By then, I estimate there will be a way."

"The new universe is fully successful?" Jiang Li’s eyes lit up, "Brother Yu, how much longer until your new universe is fully successful?"

"I originally thought that the Divine World layer at the top of the new universe should take about five to six years to complete, but now I realize that this layer of the Divine World actually controls the energy and such of countless spaces beneath it, which slows down the formation speed... It is estimated to take about ten years," Qin Yu had figured it out in his mind.

"Ten years or so to fully succeed?" Jiang Li nodded her head.

She then looked out of the house: "Sigh, Little Shuang can only wait another ten years. Brother Yu, you can help her in ten years’ time."

Children are always a concern for their parents. Qin Shuang felt terrible because of her extremely slow cultivation speed, and Qin Yu and Jiang Li also felt uncomfortable. They simply had no solution at the moment.

Ten years, waiting for the universe to achieve great success, Qin Yu’s Divine Skills would significantly increase.

******

As time passed by, in the second year after Zhou Qing received the "Thunder Origin Spirit Pearl," the entire Divine World once again showed signs of the birth of a Divine King, and a Divine King was born in the Divine World once more.

A Divine King who could only be considered a teenager.

The new Holy Emperor of Thunder Punishment City, "Zhou Qing," thereby became one of the few at the pinnacle of the pyramid in the Divine World. Becoming the Saint Emperor of Thunder Punishment City, Zhou Qing also became more aware of the several great battles that took place after the arrival of Heavenly Venerable Mountain.

Zhou Qing also realized, Qin Yu returning the Thunder Origin Spirit Pearl.

Eight or nine out of ten, the previous Northwest Holy Emperor "Zhou Xian" had already been killed by Qin Yu, along with the previous Divine Kings of Thunder Punishment City: Zhou Ran, Zhou Wulian, Zhou Tong, and Zhou Huo, all of whom were killed by Qin Yu.

Zhou Qing was astonished at Qin Yu’s strength, but he didn’t hate Qin Yu in the least.

"Hmph, Zhou Xian? Zhou Huo?" Zhou Qing had no feelings for the past Divine Kings. The past Zhou Qing was just at the bottom rung of the Zhou family, and he was even nearly exiled from Thunder Punishment City.

Deep in Zhou Qing’s heart, he was, in fact, extremely grateful to Qin Yu, who had transformed him and drastically changed his status!

...

Since Zhou Qing became a Divine King, the entire Divine World returned to tranquility once again, about three years after Zhou Qing became a Divine King. On the streets of Wei Chi City in the Eastern Divine World.

"Wei Chi City? The city where Qin Yu made his mark?" A green-bearded old man in a light cyan robe walked down the streets of Wei Chi City with a smile.

This green-bearded old man had a ruddy complexion, skin as clear as a baby’s, and an amiable smile on his face that made everyone around feel a surge of warmth.

"Who would have thought that in just a mere tens of thousands of years, Qin Yu could have created such a situation? Not bad, not bad indeed," the green-bearded old man in the light cyan robe nodded with a smile.

With a mere movement of his feet, in just two or three steps, the green-bearded old man had already left Wei Chi City.

With a wave of his sleeve, a seven-colored auspicious cloud appeared beneath the old man’s feet. Stepping on the seven-colored auspicious cloud, he moved with great speed, heading straight for the Mist Swamp.

Crossing the Mist Swamp, soon, he arrived outside Mist City.

"Oh, Mist City is still guarded at the city gate?" The green-bearded old man looked from afar at Mist City and couldn’t help but shake his head in amazement.

Nowadays, Mist City was not a place one could enter as they pleased. Suddenly, the figure of the green-bearded old man became blurry and vanished. When he reappeared, he was already inside Mist City.

Inside Mist City, which was now bustling with activity.

"Eh?" Lower Heavenly God Yu Xuan blinked in surprise, for he had only seen a blur before a green-bearded old man appeared in front of him.

"Am I seeing things?" Yu Xuan was puzzled.

"May I ask if the City Lord of Mist City lives in that floating city above?" The green-bearded old man turned around and inquired of Yu Xuan with a smile.

Yu Xuan couldn’t see through the stranger and promptly replied with a smile, "Senior, our City Lord of Mist City, Lord Qin Yu, usually resides in Zixuan Mansion. However, whether he is there right now or not, I, a lesser person, do not know."

"Oh, thank you," the green-bearded old man nodded with a smile.

He then looked up at Zixuan Mansion floating in the sky, "Such a grand mansion, and it’s entirely composed of a Low Grade Heavenly Divine Artifact, remarkable indeed." The green-bearded old man rose into the air and flew toward Zixuan Mansion.

In a moment, the green-bearded old man arrived outside the gate of Zixuan Mansion.

"This is Zixuan Mansion, outsiders are not allowed inside," the guards of Zixuan Mansion immediately called out.

The green-bearded old man shook his head with a smile and said, "Ask your master, Qin Yu, to come out."

At that time, Uncle Fu, the steward of the Zixuan Mansion, also heard the guards’ shouting and the visitor’s words; surprised, he thought, "He wants to see Master Qin Yu? Who is this person?" Uncle Fu went directly to the gate and saw the visitor—

"Old, old master!" Uncle Fu was completely stunned.

"Ah Fu," the green-bearded old man saw Uncle Fu and his eyes lit up instantly, a joyous expression filling his face.
