Chapter 291: Rebirth: I'm a Grandpa (Part 15)

Chen Xuan felt a voice explode in his mind.
The Saintly Talisman he had summoned instantly crumbled and spontaneously combusted.
In the Southern Region, a super-powerful figure sensed the aura of the Ghost Clan.
"It's actually a Saint King!"
Su Chen looked at the dark clouds above the secret realm, now shimmering with golden light, revealing a magnificent figure.
The survival of all the Southern Region's prodigies depended on this; there couldn't be no powerful figure overseeing it.
Clearly, that Saint King wasn't slacking off.
Chen Xuan's Ghost Clan aura had directly alarmed the Saint King, who intended to capture Chen Xuan and interrogate him about the Ghost Clan's whereabouts.
Chen Xuan thought to himself.
The Ghost Clan girl had given him a Saintly Talisman to use for escape.
However... he needed to kill more than half of the Southern Region's prodigies and awaken half of the suppressed Ghost Clan powerhouse's intelligence before he could escape.
Chen Xuan encountered Dongfang Yunxing, and his only thought was to kill her, forgetting the ghost girl's warning.
Now, Dongfang Yunxing is still alive.
The consciousness of the ghost clan powerhouse remains unawakened.
The Saintly Talisman is gone.
Chen Xuan has lost all his means of attack.
"No! I am a noble transmigrator, and I possess an invincible system! I, Chen Xuan, am destined to reach the pinnacle! How could I possibly die at the hands of you natives?"
Chen Xuan roared in resentment.
Just as Chen Xuan was about to be captured,
the Saint King who had intervened suddenly stopped.
A terrifying power, accompanied by a gray light, seemed to emanate from the darkness.
Chen Xuan vanished.
"That aura..."
The Saint King's expression turned solemn. He immediately used his great divine power to send everyone inside the secret realm out, leaving in a hurry.
It seemed something major was about to happen.
Many geniuses were still completely bewildered.
What just happened?
How were they teleported out?
Inside the Heavenly Fate Pearl
Su Chen found it very interesting.
"It seems this world is destined to be turbulent."
The Saint King who made the move had shallow cultivation and couldn't see through the situation.
Su Chen knew.
The being who rescued Chen Xuan was a Quasi-Emperor at the peak.
That rule didn't belong to this world; it came from another world.
Why would a Quasi-Emperor at the peak from another world hide in this world?
It didn't seem too difficult to guess.
......
"Empress, why do we need to rescue this good-for-nothing?"
In a region of the Vast Continent.
A woman sat on the shore, her pair of translucent jade feet dangling in the air.
The woman's pupils were eerily different; one eye was a ghostly green, flickering with flames, while the other was pure white, utterly unsettling. Her long, jet-black hair flowed like a river of night.
She possessed a unique beauty, her face adorned with a smile like that of a girl next door.
Behind the girl stood a mysterious figure shrouded in a grey robe, covered in intricate runes. One hand gripped a scepter, the flesh of which was no longer visible, only stark white bone. At the top of the scepter was a gem; upon closer inspection, countless wailing faces were visible within the gem, a chilling sight.
The grey-robed skeletal elder was displeased.
They came to this world at a great cost, solely to deliver a message to the suppressed ghost race powerhouses. Their plan, which should have been foolproof, was ruined by Chen Xuan's impulsiveness, forcing them to abandon the ghost race powerhouses of the Vast Continent.
This was a huge loss.
And to make matters worse, their own Empress demanded that he rescue that human boy.
Now things are really complicated.
Not only are the ghost race powerhouses of the Vast Continent doomed,
but even they themselves are forced to leave this universe.
Otherwise, if the human powerhouses follow the trail, leaving will be difficult, and they might end up like those suppressed ghost race powerhouses.
Hearing this, the young woman smoothed a stray strand of hair from her temple and chuckled softly, "Elder Grey... perhaps our greatest gain from this trip to this universe is him."
"Even if all the powerful ghosts suppressed in this universe give up, we will bring him back to the Ghost Realm."
The grey-robed skeleton elder was taken aback, asking in confusion, "That boy is unremarkable, his mind is crooked, and he has no heart for martial arts."
"What merit does he possess to be valued so highly by the Empress?"
The young woman's gaze was deep and unfathomable. From the void, the unconscious Chen Xuan slowly landed inside a container.
The entire sea shattered like a mirror.
In an instant, it vanished into nothingness.
"He... is a transmigrator..."
"That's enough."
........
Su Chen sensed a terrifying aura emanating from the vast continent.
It was a quasi-Emperor level expert, wielding an Emperor-level weapon, illuminating the entire continent!
He seemed to be searching for something.
Su Chen shielded himself from the aura of the Heavenly Fate Pearl and fell into a deep sleep.
"Master...Master..."
Dongfang Yunxing called out to Su Chen, but there was no response.
One day, two days, a month, a year...
The bead remained completely still.
Besides leveling up and defeating Chen Xuan, Dongfang Yunxing had another goal:
To find a way to awaken Su Chen again.
Ten years passed.
Dongfang Yunxing gradually rose to power.
On the vast continent, only those ancient freaks could rival him.
Just as Dongfang Yunxing continued his leveling journey,
a piece of news spread throughout the Southern Region of the vast continent:
The Holy Son of the Haori Holy Land, the most powerful force in the Southern Region, was to marry the Holy Maiden of the Piaoxue Holy Land.
Dongfang Yunxing learned of this news.
"Young Master Dongfang, please save my young lady!"
The Holy Maiden of the Piaoxue Holy Land was none other than Lu Xuewei.
The beautiful woman before him was Lu Xuewei's personal maid.
From Lu Xuewei's personal maid, Dongfang Yunxing learned the truth about Lu Xuewei's arranged marriage.
Lu Xuewei's innate Nine Yin Body was highly valued by the Snowdrift Holy Land. The Snowdrift Holy Land's patriarch was near death and wanted to use Lu Xuewei to form a marriage alliance with the Haori Holy Land's patriarch in exchange for a sacred medicine to grant him a second chance at life.
The Haori Holy Land's holy son, on the other hand, could rely on Lu Xuewei's innate Nine Yin Body to break through again, enter the forbidden realm, and achieve unparalleled imperial power!
Both sides were overjoyed.
However, Lu Xuewei's personal maid knew that Lu Xuewei was no longer a virgin.
Once exposed, Lu Xuewei would face certain death.
Upon hearing this news, Dongfang Yunxing's expression turned grave.
"Don't worry, I will definitely go to save Miss Lu,"
Dongfang Yunxing promised.
Dongfang Yunxing returned to the Fengyun Dynasty.
He arrived at the desolate tomb of the Dongfang family.
He knew this departure might be indefinite.
Neither the Haori Holy Land nor the Piaoxue Holy Land would let him go.
But he had no choice but to go.
He was Lu Xuewei's only man.
Lu Xuewei was also his only woman.
Dongfang Yunxing couldn't turn a blind eye.
Dongfang Yunxing took out the Heavenly Fate Bead hanging on his chest.
For ten years, he had tried everything, but the Heavenly Fate Bead remained dim and lifeless.
Dongfang Yunxing hung the Heavenly Fate Bead on an unmarked tombstone.
He didn't know his master's name.
He kowtowed heavily before the tombstone.
"Master...this disciple has failed your expectations..."
"This disciple will do something very foolish."
"If this disciple can return alive..."
Dongfang Yunxing looked up and saw
a middle-aged man formed from a wisp of white smoke
looking at him.
