On the way back after leaving Great Senior Tian Yun's cave house, Tian Yue looked at Xiao Chen with a smile and said, "Why? You don't want to go to Above Heavens? Are you afraid of dying in there with me?"
Facing Tian Yue's teasing, Xiao Chen turned to look at her. Although this little girl was about the same age as him, her character was extremely lively and cheerful. She was also extraordinarily courageous. She only wanted to see the world in chaos. Hearing her words, Xiao Chen said angrily.
"What's the use of being afraid? Knowing that it's a fire pit, I still have to jump in."
After spending some time together, Xiao Chen and Tian Yue had become familiar with each other, so they could joke around when they talked. Neither of them would take it to heart.
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Tian Yue rolled her eyes. But before she could speak, Xiao Chen continued, but his voice was obviously laughing a lot. Moreover, his tone was also very low.
"Moreover, I don't want to see you fall in Above Heavens like the previous first Holy Son and Holy Maiden of Nine Heavens."
Xiao Chen's sudden words made Tian Yue stunned, but then she smiled again, but there was a hint of sweetness in her smile. Perhaps it was because Xiao Chen was the first man to say such words to her.
As the first Holy Maiden of Nine Heavens, Tian Yue's identity destined the men around her to stay away from her. It was even more impossible for them to say anything to protect her because Tian Yue didn't need anyone to protect her at all.
Now, Tianyue could feel the care and concern from Xiao Chen, and she felt warm in her heart.
It was unknown what Tian Yue was thinking at this time. Xiao Chen was a little conflicted about Above Heavens, but at the same time, he was also looking forward to it. After all, this was a small world built by a Great Sage. What kind of existence was a Great Sage? Xiao Chen didn't know, but Xiao Chen understood that a quasi-sage was almost not worth mentioning in front of a Great Sage.
Let's put it this way. If the North Star Realm had a Great Saint at this time, they didn't need one. As long as there was one, the situation of the entire North Star Realm would be completely different. At that time, it would most likely be a situation where only one of them reigned supreme. It was a pity that there hadn't been a Great Saint in the North Star Realm for many, many years.
The extinction of the Great Saint had also led to everyone knowing that there was still the existence of the Great Saint Realm above the Quasi-saint Realm. However, no one knew how Quasi-saints broke through to the Great Saint Realm. Did they rely on the power of the Source? I'm afraid that's not all.
It was related to the Great Sage, so Above Heavens was very dangerous. At the same time, it was also very tempting. Especially for people like Xiao Chen, the temptation of Above Heavens was extremely huge.
The danger to his life was nothing to Xiao Chen. After all, Xiao Chen had been through a lot of dangers along the way. Moreover, if it weren't for these dangers, would Xiao Chen still be able to reach his current height?
Danger and opportunity often coexisted. Therefore, Xiao Chen quickly adjusted his mentality and even had a sense of longing for the trip to Above Heavens.
He returned to the small courtyard where he lived. Before parting, Xiao Chen said to Tian Yue, "Prepare well. Since there's a glimmer of hope, I think we'd better work hard to grasp it."
"I don't need you to say that. I'm not someone who wants to die. If I can live, who wants to die? You should be the one who should prepare well. Otherwise, wouldn't your three wives be heartbroken? Hmph." Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Tian Yue snorted softly, then turned and left.
Neither of them noticed that Tian Yue's tone became a little strange when she talked about Xiao Chen's three wives.
After sending Tian Yue off, Xiao Chen returned to the courtyard and met with the five Saints of the Nine Firmaments. He also told them in detail about his meeting with supreme sovereign Tian Yun.
When they heard that supreme sovereign Tian Yun had agreed to form an alliance with the Sacred Palace, the five of them were overjoyed. But when they heard that supreme sovereign Tian Yun wanted Xiao Chen and Tian Yue to enter Above Heavens together, they immediately fell silent. Saint Dan Yun was the first to reject.
"Chen 'er, you can't. You can't enter Above Heavens. It's too dangerous."
Saint Dan Yun was the first to disagree. Soon after, the Nine Firmaments Saint and the others also spoke up. They didn't agree with Xiao Chen entering Above Heavens because it was too dangerous.
Since the five of them didn't agree with Xiao Chen entering Above Heavens, Xiao Chen could only patiently persuade them.
"It's fine. Although Above Heavens is dangerous, it's not certain death. Also, this is the only way Nine Firmaments will agree to form an alliance with the Sacred Palace …"
After persuading them patiently, Xiao Chen's persuasion and Xiao Chen's determination, the five of them reluctantly agreed.
However, the five of them still gave Xiao Chen their pills and talismans so that he could keep them for himself when he entered Above Heavens.
Xiao Chen naturally wouldn't refuse the talismans and pills given to him by the five of them. He knew that these things were life-saving treasures, and the more he had, the better his chances of survival would be.
After handing over many pills and talismans, Xiao Chen discussed with the five of them. Tomorrow, supreme sovereign Tian Yun would send people to the Sacred Palace. Xiao Chen's intention was for the five of them to return with him. As for himself, he would stay in Nine Firmaments and return to the Sacred Palace after the matter with Above Heavens was concluded.
Xiao Chen had his own opinions. Therefore, the five Saints had no choice but to agree to Xiao Chen's decision, even though they were reluctant to do so.
The next morning, as expected, Grand Elder Tian Yun sent three Saints from the Nine Heavens over. Moreover, there was a Holy Son accompanying them. Xiao Chen had seen this person before. It was indeed the fifth Holy Son of the Nine Heavens, Zi Yu.
However, Zi Yu was much more obedient this time and didn't provoke Xiao Chen. On the contrary, he was extremely low-key. Xiao Chen was naturally happy to see this happen.
Sending Zi Yu and the three Saints to the Sacred Palace was a show of the importance Nine Firmaments placed on this alliance.
Without wasting any time, the group left Nine Firmaments on the same day and hurried towards the Sacred Palace. As such, Xiao Chen was left alone in Nine Firmaments.
After sending off the Nine Firmaments Saints, Xiao Chen spent the next two days very relaxed. He didn't cultivate, nor did he go out. Instead, he did his best to prepare for Above Heavens, adjusting himself to his peak condition.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye. On the third day, Tian Yue found Xiao Chen early in the morning and brought Xiao Chen to the lake in the depths of Nine Firmaments.
When the two arrived, supreme sovereign Tian Yun and the other quasi-Saint from Nine Firmaments were already waiting. Seeing the two arrive, supreme sovereign Tian Yun smiled at Xiao Chen, while the other quasi-Saint supreme sovereign expressionlessly said to Xiao Chen.
"Nine Firmaments has already agreed to form an alliance with the Sacred Palace. You must do your best to help Tian Yue obtain the Heavenly Emperor's Record. If I find out that you're cheating, the alliance will be nullified."
