The Moon Maiden knew that Ling Xiao had provoked many enemies when he returned to the imperial capital. Someone would definitely plot against Ling Xiao. Thus, the protection of Ling Xiao was even tighter.
However, in order to avoid Ling Xiao's discomfort, she had been very careful to conceal her aura.
It was very easy for a Yin-Yang Realm martial artist to not be discovered by others.
"Since you're here, why don't you come out for a chat?"
The person in front suddenly turned his head, and a familiar smiling face appeared in front of Ling Xiao.
"Grandfather!"
Ling Xiao was so excited that his entire body trembled.
He had come to the Divine Phoenix Continent from the Heavenly Dragon Continent to find his grandfather, Hong Qi. Unfortunately, other than getting some information from Ji Ning, there had been no other news about Hong Qi.
He did not expect to meet him here today.
However, who was the girl that his grandfather was talking about?
Could it be Sister Moon Maiden?
Ling Xiao turned his head and saw the Moon Maiden's light blue figure slowly appear.
However, the Moon Maiden's cheeks were slightly flushed, and she was even a little nervous.
This was because she heard Ling Xiao call that person 'Grandfather'.
Since he was Ling Xiao's grandfather, didn't that mean he was her grandfather?
She could not help but feel nervous when meeting an elder.
"Haha, you're really something. You already have a woman, but you didn't even bring her here for your grandfather to see."
Hong Qi smiled as he stroked his beard. He casually drew a circle and isolated this space from the outside world.
In that instant, the Moon Maiden was shocked.
Hong Qi's strength was simply unfathomable.
When did Ling Xiao have such a powerful grandfather?
"Grandfather, let's not talk about me. Where have you been all this time? Also, what's with your strength? Back in Tianfeng City, you couldn't even defeat an ordinary Martial Vein Realm martial artist."
Ling Xiao asked a series of questions.
"Sit down and tell me slowly."
Hong Qi gently touched his storage ring, and a table and chairs appeared on the ground.
After the three of them sat down, Hong Qi sighed and said, "It's a long story. When I was at the peak of my career, I was plotted against by the people closest to me. Although I didn't die, I became a cripple. Fortunately, your parents saved me. Later on, in order to repay their kindness, I carried you to Tianfeng City, the place with the weakest cultivators."
"My parents? Grandpa, do you know who my parents are? "
Ling Xiao asked excitedly.
"Now, you can be considered a person who can take charge of things on your own. You can know some of the truth."
Hong Qi smiled and said, "Your father is Ji Furing, the successor of the Sacred Dynasty's Saint Emperor, while your mother is Yu Xuanyue, a peerless powerhouse of the Soul Race."
"It's really them!"
Although Ling Xiao had guessed it before, he was still shocked when he heard the truth from Hong Qi.
"That's right, it's them."
Hong Qi nodded.
"But why did they abandon me?"
Ling Xiao was a little resentful.
"It's not that they want to abandon you, but because the path they want to take is uncertain. Bringing you along will only harm you."
Hong Qi sighed and said, "If there are no accidents, your parents should have walked out of the Gate of Heaven's Chosen. As for where they are, even I don't know. If one day, you can also pass through the Gate of Heaven's Chosen, try and see if you can find them."
"Why must humans pass through the Gate of Heaven's Chosen?"
Ling Xiao asked, puzzled.
"I can answer this."
The Moon Maiden suddenly said, "The Mystic World we live in is a very unstable world. It can collapse at any time. Leaving the Mystic World to find another place suitable for the survival of the myriad races is something that has been done since more than 100,000 years ago."
"Not only that."
Hong Qi added, "According to the information observed in the Immortal Court, the powerhouses from beyond the sky seem to like to use other backward worlds as their practice targets. Just like how many martial artists break stones to test their strength, the Mystic World is just like a stone in their eyes."
"Isn't this too outrageous?"
Ling Xiao felt that his brain capacity was a little insufficient. He had never heard of the things that the Moon Maiden and Hong Qi said.
He had never even thought about it before.
"Whether it's outrageous or not, none of us can say for sure. After all, it's just the words of a big shot. If you really want to know the truth, you can only know the answer when your cultivation reaches a certain level and you walk out of the Gate of Heaven's Chosen."
Hong Qi smiled and said, "Let's not talk about this. Let's talk about the things around you. I heard that you founded the Celestial Empire and became the Celestial Emperor?"
"That's right."
Ling Xiao nodded.
"Good boy, you have ambition, but don't be proud because of this. As far as I know, the Black Crow Empire and the Divine Phoenix Empire recently signed the Northern Desert Alliance. I don't know the specific content of the alliance, but what is certain is that the two empires have always been enemies. Now that they have begun to trade and even send diplomatic missions to each other, you have to be careful that the Divine Phoenix Empire will make a move on your Celestial Empire."
Hong Qi reminded.
"I know."
Ling Xiao had actually thought that such a day would come.
How could he allow others to sleep beside him?
The Divine Phoenix Empire would definitely not allow the Celestial Empire to grow stronger.
"It's good that you know. Also, I have to tell you that the Tomohiko Kuma you captured alive before, after going through that ordeal, not only did he not become dispirited, he became even more mature and stronger than before!"
Hong Qi smiled and said, "This person's cultivation was originally much higher than yours. If it wasn't for his lack of experience, he wouldn't have been captured alive by you. Now, he is already a fourth Grotto-Heaven Realm martial artist. Rumor has it that his master, Timur Mutu, left him a treasure that can allow him to cultivate to the peak of the Yin Yang Realm. Now, he hates you to the bone."
"Tomohiko Kuma?"
Ling Xiao smiled and said, "If I can capture him alive once, I can capture him alive again. Last time, because someone helped him, he survived. But next time, it might not be so."
"It's good to be confident, but you have to be careful."
Hong Qi continued, "Now, Northern Desert City has already become an abandoned city. Ever since you moved all the people there to the Heavenly Dragon Continent, that place has gradually become desolate."
"Sigh, if the Divine Phoenix Empire could trust Ji Ning a little more, it wouldn't be like this."
Ling Xiao sighed and said.
"No need to sigh. Their misdeeds have instead helped you."
Hong Qi said, "Because the Dragon Phoenix Selection is coming, the White Tiger Meet will also be held after that. I reckon that the wars between big countries will gradually decrease. Your biggest goal now should be to get at least the top three in the Dragon Tiger Meet. This way, the benefits you will receive will not only increase your own cultivation, but will also be of great help.
At the same time, it will also make your empire stronger. "
"The White Tiger Meet actually has such benefits?"
Ling Xiao originally thought that this kind of Martial Arts Festival was just to reward martial artists. He didn't expect that it would also be beneficial to the development of a country.
