Chapter 123: The Winged Human’s Relationship With The Sage Ruler Holy King, To The Winged Human Tribe We Go

Inside the Towering Heaven Palace.

Chu Kuangren looked at Gujiang and sighed. “So let me get this straight, you went and joined the Black Heaven Sect just so you can be my disciple?”

“Teach me, master! Please!” Gujiang requested as he gave a fist salute.

Honorable Xuan Qi, Elder Ruyan, and a few other elders standing beside him all stared at Chu Kuangren with bewilderment. They could not believe that Chu Kuangren knew alchemy!

Moreover, he had impressed an Alchemy Master like Gujiang too.

Chu Kuangren had given them too many surprises by then.

“Hmm, Kuangren, why don’t you teach Master Gu a thing or two, seeing that he’s asking so sincerely now?” Honorable Xuan Qi laughed.

Chu Kuangren replied, “I’m fine with the teaching part, but I’m not taking him as my disciple.”

“Yes, teacher,” Gujiang said with a face full of delight.

“Didn’t you hear me say that I’m not accepting disciples?”

“You misunderstand, teacher, Although you’re not taking me as your disciple, you are still the one handing down the knowledge to me. Hence you can’t refuse the way I’m addressing you.”

“Very well.” Chu Kuangren nodded.

Just like that, the Towering Heaven Palace added another person to their frequent guest list.

Gujiang would visit the Towering Heaven Palace once in a while for advice and guidance, and with him as a member, the Black Heaven Sect’s foundation had become greater as well.

After all, no matter how things were, that person was an Alchemy Master.

These days, it was common to see Honorable Xuan Qi’s delightful smile, and he would constantly mention how lucky a star Chu Kuangren was to the sect.

With that, Chu Kuangren lived a peaceful and quiet life.

However, something always kept him from becoming too comfortable.

Today.

Outside the Towering Heaven Palace, a handsome young man in white robes had come to visit. He introduced himself as someone from the Winged Human Tribe and was there to take Lan Yu back.

With a frown, Chu Kuangren took a look at that person.

“Brother Chu, I’m Yan Bo from the Winged Human Tribe. The reason for my visit is to request that you allow Lan Yu to return to her tribe, back to the roots of her ancestry.” The handsome young man did not wait for Chu Kuangren to speak before he did first.

Deep inside, Chu Kuangren rolled his eyes in disbelief.

Lan Yu was created by and obtained by him through the Fantasy Roulette. Although she did belong to the Winged Human Tribes, Lan Yu had no relations with them whatsoever.

‘Allow her to go back to the roots of her ancestry? What ancestry does she even have?’

However, in the eyes of outsiders like Yan Bo, this was not the case. Chu Kuangren did not want to tell him immediately, so he looked at Lan Yu as if he wanted to get her opinion.

“I won’t go anywhere and shall only stay by my Master’s side,” Lan Yu said persistently.

Chu Kuangren laughed. He then looked at Yan Bo and said, “There you go my fellow winged human cultivator, you’ve heard it. Lan Yu herself doesn’t want to return.”

“Lan Yu, this time you must go back.” Yan Bo was still reluctant to take ‘no’ for an answer and he began to look more anxious.

Chu Kuangren frowned. He had a feeling that something was not quite right. “This time? Has he been here many times before this?”

The latter part of that sentence was meant for Lan Yu.

Lan Yu nodded.

“Why didn’t you tell me?”

“I didn’t think it was a trivial matter and did not dare bother you, Master.”

“How is anything related to you not trivial? If anything like this is to happen next time, please don’t hide it from me,” Chu Kuangren said in frustration.

Lan Yu pursed her lips and nodded. “Yes, Master.”

Standing by the side, Yan Bo had a feeling that the relationship between those two was not purely a master-servant one but he did not think much about it.

He then continued to say, “Lan Yu, the life and death of the Winged Human Tribe is at stake this time. You need to follow me back now.”

“The Winged Human Tribe’s survival has nothing to do with me. Besides, don’t you guys have Jue Tianlan with you? Can’t you let him deal with it?”

The Jue Tianlan, whom Lan Yu mentioned just now, was the Young Emperor of the Winged Human Tribe and was also an ancient sky-pride from forty thousand years ago. Even he had come to seek her out a few times before, and although he was a very powerful person, he was not inferior to her in terms of combat abilities.

“I’m afraid even the Young Emperor will not be able to handle this. Only you can save our Winged Human Tribe because you’re the one who possesses the Scepter of Light.”

Yan Bo then continued to tell them about what had happened in detail.

It turned out that the forefathers of the Winged Human Tribe were close friends with the Sage Ruler Holy King who later granted them his ancestral lands to rule over, for them to spread their roots and thrive as the Winged Human Tribe.

However, in reality, the people of the Winged Human Tribe were given an important mission. Deep within the lands that they live in, there was a Demonic Well that could connect to the Underworld Demonic Realm. So the mission for every generation of the Winged Human Tribe was to prevent the monsters from coming out of the Demonic Well by keeping it suppressed.

However, there had been some activity that surrounded the Demonic Well lately. The spell to suppress it had been damaged by unknown reasons, and soon, it became extremely weakened.

Only the Scepter of Light, which was wielded by the Sage Ruler Holy King, could restore the spell to its original state and suppress the Demonic Well once more.

“The fact that you obtained the Scepter of Light was an act of providence. Lan Yu, please return to the Winged Human Tribe with me to suppress the Demonic Well. With your talents and the scepter, you shall soon be the ruler of the Winged Human Tribe.”

Yan Bo’s words were spoken with emotion as he reasoned with them.

Even Chu Kuangren did not expect the Winged Human Tribe to have had such a relationship with the Sage Ruler Holy King.

That would mean that the Scepter of Light did not only choose Lan Yu because of her Holy Radiant Physique but her identity as a Winged Human too.

“Why don’t we go for a visit then.”

While Lan Yu was hesitating, Chu Kuangren had decided.

“Master.”

“We haven’t been out for quite some time, and besides, I’m interested to find out more about this so-called Demonic Well as well.”

Chu Kuangren chuckled.

The Underworld Demonic Realm was a phrase that Chu Kuangren had constantly come across when he was going through the scriptures and texts, and he had also read some recorded texts about the Demonic Realm too.

For instance, the Founder of the School of White Lotus — the White Lotus Sage Ruler once suppressed a Demonic Beast who came from the Underworld and created a sage orthodoxy after that.

“Then I shall go along with you, Master,” Lan Yu said.

“Alright.”

“Many thanks, Brother Chu.” Yan Bo was so delighted and only then did he realize that he had been persuading the wrong person the entire time. ‘I should’ve gone to Chu Kuangren in the first place.’

When Honorable Xuan Qi heard that Chu Kuangren was going to the Winged Human’s territory, he did not object and Chu Kuangren set off soon after.

The Seventh Forefather and two other protectors followed suit as well.

After three years, these three protectors finally had something to do. The three of them gathered within the void and greeted each other.

“Long time no see, Sister Qing Lan. I see that you’re still doing fine.” The Seventh Forefather chuckled as he looked at Honorable Qing Lan.

“Hello Brother Xuan, I hope you’ve been well all this time.”

“Oh my Sister Meng, if I recall correctly, you look a bit younger now.”

Old Lady Meng laughed. “I owe it to the Dynasty King’s kind reward. He gave me a piece of Supreme Pill, which enabled me to extend my lifespan and continue protecting the Princess’s Fiancé.”

“Oh I see, that’s great news indeed. Congratulations.”

“Well, it’s nothing compared to the likes of you, Brother Xuan. I heard that you were in Heavenly Deterioration Stage Five but was returned to your prime due to a Life Extension Pill. Now that’s something to be envious about,” Old Lady Meng said in envy.

One would be considered a dead man walking if they were to enter the Heavenly Deterioration Stage Five. In other words, there were not many who had the chance like the Seventh Forefather to return to his prime.

“Ha, it’s all thanks to the young lad’s help. Now that he’s an Alchemy Grandmaster, maybe I can request him to create a few Life Extension Pills for you as well.”

The Seventh Forefather suggested.

Seemingly touched, Old Lady Meng said, “Let’s talk about this another day, shall we?”

“Yeah, sure.”

The protectors were casually chatting in the void.

In their opinion, with Chu Kuangren’s current abilities, there would be no need for them to take action unless their opponent was at least an Honorable.

Then again, how many Honorables were there on Firmament Star?

It could be said that their job was the easiest in terms of being a protector. Ever since they had started to protect Chu Kuangren, there were only a handful of times that they needed to take action.
