The Stars Beyond-Chapter 406: The Ancient Spaceship From Outer Space

"Thank goodness, you finally woke up. It's been over ten days since your spirit disappeared. If your body hadn't still been warm, I would have announced your death to the public," Chen Yongjie breathed a sigh of relief and spoke in an ominous tone. Wang Xuan really wanted to give him a lecture, telling him not to be so pessimistic.

Chen Yongjie's bald head gleamed brightly, just like a reflection of his enhanced cultivation. His eyes were sharp as he asked, "This time, you didn't self-immolate, nor did you experience any violent shocks. Was everything peaceful, and did your seclusion go smoothly?"

"Not bad. This time, I traveled through the Void and went far away. It was like a big dream," Wang Xuan sighed.

He had killed Zheng Yuantian, and even he himself felt it was unreal. It was likely that the Immortal Realm was in turmoil now. Such a major event would definitely cause a stir. However, now was not the time to focus on the Immortal Realm. He was very worried about his parents and so he quickly asked about the situation in the mortal realm and whether there had been any changes.

"Zheng Yuantian's disciples are insane. As they were unable to find you, they went to Ping City and targeted your parents. They had completely ignored the rules!" Chen Yongjie said solemnly.

At the time, they were in Mo City, which was by the sea. Wang Xuan had secluded himself here to avoid Zheng Yuantian's people, but they still targeted his family.

Chen Yongjie quickly reassured him, "Don't worry, your parents are fine. Those people were asking for death. They evaporated on the spot, and not a trace of them were left.”

"Did Sister Fang take action?" Wang Xuan asked. He knew that Fang Yuzhu had gone to An City to recharge herself at the largest library there.

"Yes, those people disappeared the moment her immortal light flashed. Among them were Zheng Yuantian's direct disciples, which were incredibly powerful. If it were anyone else there, they wouldn't have been able to resist them. But in front of Maiden Fang, they were like rotten paper that was easily torn apart. Just like that, the world was peaceful again," Chen Yongjie sighed with admiration. He also longed for such greatness, but unfortunately, he probably wouldn't have the opportunity as he was born in this era.

Wang Xuan breathed a sigh of relief. He felt grateful to Fang Yuzhu. Then he asked, "My parents weren't frightened, were they? Well, they're brave. Even if they were scared, they'd be fine after a good night's sleep."

"It was far from it. Back then, how should I put it...... They didn't panic at all. Their ability to handle pressure was quite astonishing," Chen Yongjie said with a strange expression, he then continued, "When they saw Fang Yuzhu, they were very happy. Their expressions were like......"

Old Chen couldn't continue his words. According to the reports he received, Wang Xuan's parents were very enthusiastic and not at all reserved. The way they looked at Fang Yuzhu was warm and eager. Wang Xuan rubbed his temples with one hand as he felt embarrassed. Without much thought, he knew his parents must have misunderstood.

Could they possibly think Fang Yuzhu was a modern-day transcendent? She was a transcendent with three thousand years of cultivation!

Wang Xuan could imagine his parents being delighted. As they did not fully understand Fang Yuzhu's true origins, they were completely seeing her as a prospective daughter-in-law. Since myths were dying out and transcendents were becoming ordinary, they had hoped Wang Xuan would marry a transcendent maiden. Chen Yongjie looked awkward and he felt embarrassed to say anything more. Wang's mother even held Fang Yuzhu's hand and put her own bracelet on her wrist.

"Did Sister Fang leave in a huff?" said Wang Xuan. He felt his face burning and was embarrassed for his parents.

How could they act like this?

Old Chen laughed suddenly and said, "Miss Fang has a good temper. Although she was led by the hand, she always had a smile on her face. Moreover, she found a quiet room and chatted with your parents for a long time."

Chat with my parents? Can they find common topics to chat on?

Wang Xuan covered his eyes with both hands and started rubbing his face again. He felt really embarrassed. How was he supposed to face Fang Yuzhu next time?

Undeniably, he had a favorable impression of Fang Yuzhu, but for now, his feeling was purely admiration and non-romantic. It was like how ordinary humans always liked beautiful things that were pure, natural, and simple. Besides, who was Fang Yuzhu? She was a transcendent and one without a brain would know that she was possibly the strongest in the world. How could she easily fall into worldly matters?

Zheng Yuantian's disciples appeared more than once in the mortal realm and were behaving wildly. They tried to cause trouble after failing in Ping City, but they were bombarded by warships in the end. At a critical moment, Zheng Yuantian made a ruthless move by seizing a warship and had imprisoned it within the great veil.

"These kinds of people deserve death, but unfortunately, Old Zheng's power is too strong. We can't do anything about him," said Chen Yongjie while he shook his head.

Wang Xuan fell silent. In the end, people had already died. Even by killing Zheng Yuantian, it wouldn't change their fate.

"I'll advance to the next stage and then shake down their realm. In the real world, I shouldn't fear their attempts to kill me anymore!" Wang Xuan pondered.

Then, he suddenly looked up and gazed into the deep starry sky. He was contemplating a journey into the depths of the universe. Having killed Zheng Yuantian and resolved the biggest threat, it was time to consider rescuing people. He wanted to bring Zhao Qinghan and Wu Yin back from the secret place. He had refrained from traveling too far mainly because he was currently in danger. He was constantly being watched by peerless experts. Additionally, through the information that Fang Yuzhu had given him, he knew that Zhao Qinghan and Wu Yin were not in immediate danger.

Previously, Fang Yuzhu had also left a spiritual fragment there. It was left there together with the white peacock at the Earth Immortal stage. It had not returned till this day as if it was waiting for something. Separated by the great veil, Fang Yuzhu had made contact with the spiritual fragment over there and believed that the old fox was extremely cunning. It harbored hostility towards the Celestial Beings and its strength was comparable to, if not stronger than, the white peacock. However, it had indeed taught Zhao Qinghan and Wu Yin cultivation without causing harm to them. However, the part that made Wang Xuan uneasy was that it kept them detained and was not willing to let them go. Furthermore, Fang Yuzhu suspected that the old fox had other connections, not just as the caretaker of the so-called Immortal Cave but possibly as a powerful figure who had escaped from the great veil in advance.

"An Earth Immortal with a physical body that had escaped and lived in the mortal world all this time, I wonder if their realm has been shaken down," Wang Xuan said with a serious expression.

He dared not paint a rosy picture of the old fox. Not releasing his captives indicated he had a problem. He didn't dare to be overly optimistic about the situation as he feared there might be a huge hidden agenda.

Looking back on his experiences in the secret place, he increasingly felt that the old fox was suspicious and had many abnormalities. The old fox had inquired about Earth Immortals and Health Masters from cultivators on the three transcendent planets of Yuhua, Oula, and Heluo. He was evaluating something at the time.

"Master Ma, how are you now? Can you perform the Horse Stomping Flying Swallows or the Horse Stomping Demons Technique? And you, the bootlicker, are you going to switch allegiance to the old fox?" pondered Wang Xuan.

"Little Celestial Fox, it would be really heartbreaking if your grandfather and I became enemies." he thought again.

Wang Xuan believed that with his recent breakthrough to the eleventh stage, he might be able to set out. He realized he had many things to do lately. After he had dealt with Old Zheng, he still needed to guard against Heng Jun. Furthermore, he had to go to the secret place to pick someone up. In addition, the Celestial Sword Maiden might break through the transcendent realm at any time, so he needed to be vigilant and guide her out. He would need to guide her as it was chaotic in the great veil, with various Hades Blood factions in turmoil.

"Has anything happened in the past few days?" Wang Xuan asked.

"Yes, indeed. Yesterday, an ancient spaceship had arrived from outer space. Its style is outdated and out of place for this era. It's very unusual......" said Old Chen with a serious expression.

The ancient spaceship drifted aimlessly from deep space. It was stained with blood that made the approaching people shiver. The blood hadn't dried yet.

"Are there any living beings inside? Can we communicate or approach it?" Wang Xuan asked.

"Ordinary people can't get close. At first, I wanted to go, but I couldn't leave you alone," Old Chen said.

Currently, beings from beyond the great veil were unaware. Until this afternoon, he had only informed Fang Yuzhu. She had already set off because the situation was strange and required investigation by a strong individual.

"That blood is probably from an extremely powerful transcendent because ordinary researchers can't even get close to it. The moment they get close to it, their spirits will be in extreme pain, as if they're being torn apart."

Old Chen's expression was solemn. There were probably no people piloting the ancient spaceship. It was eerily silent, and its propulsion system had long been shut down. It appeared and floated inexplicably in outer space. It was already nighttime, and he hadn't received any news from Maiden Fang yet.

"Have you informed Old Zhang and the Hades Blood Patriarch?" Wang Xuan asked.

Chen Yongjie shook his head. He felt that Fang Yuzhu was approachable and best to talk to, so he informed her first. He had some awe for the other two.

"Fang Sister should be fine, but it's been so long. Why haven't we heard anything yet?" Wang Xuan frowned.

"The space probe had seen her open the hatch and successfully entered it, but she hasn't come out since then." said Chen Yongjie with uncertainty. He said, "How about we immediately inform Master Zhang and the Patriarch of Hades Blood Sect? I think they will be interested. The ancient spaceship is stained with blood and has dented cabins. It's definitely not ordinary."

Wang Xuan agreed. He was indeed a little worried. The universe was vast and no one can guarantee invincibility.

"An ancient spaceship stained with the blood of a transcendent being? That kind of thing is usually not simple. I'll go up and take a look." Zhang Daoling said after hearing this. He then asked Chen Yongjie to send a spaceship to take him to space.

As for the Hades Blood Patriarch, he was still immersed in the major events that occurred in the great veil and couldn't extricate himself. With Zheng Yuantian killed, he had been busy gathering all sorts of latest information.

"Haha, Heng Jun, how dare you threaten me. Now look, your own home has been stolen and destroyed. Even the Best Immortal Tea Tree has changed ownership. Ridiculous!"

Finally, he also received a call. Later in the evening, he boarded a small spaceship and was also heading to the outer space of the Old World. After waiting for a long time, neither of them returned, and there was no news at all! Wang Xuan and Chen Yongjie were both stunned.

What was going on? Three top experts had came and entered the ancient spaceship, but there were no signs of them afterward?

It was unsettling!

"What about the Demon Lord? Quickly seek her help." said Old Chen. He felt overwhelmed, sensing that things were far from as simple as he had imagined.

Wang Xuan shook his head. Leaving aside whether they could find the Demon Lord, they couldn't simply send people into the ancient spaceship again even if they knew where she was. Now that the three top experts had entered and were trapped inside. Even if the Demon Lord went in, she probably wouldn't be able to solve the problem and might even endanger herself.

Was there anyone who could threaten Fang Yuzhu in the real world?

Wang Xuan remained silent and waited for news. The deep and vast universe held too many secrets, and no one could say what might happen.

In the late hours of the night, Chen Yongjie's phone rang abruptly. The ringing sound broke the silence of the night and jarred his senses. He answered it immediately, hoping it was news from the ancient spaceship in outer space.

"How is that possible? Everyone who entered the ancient spaceship is dead?!" exclaimed Chen Yongjie. He was shocked to his core. He was speechless and found it hard to believe what he had heard.
