Xia Fei was slightly taken aback. This youth before him actually said that his grandfather had died in battle in the Heaven Eye Constellation, but before this, Xia Guanghai and the others had all said that the Heaven Eye Constellation was a barren land with strange eye patterns. It was very far away, but there were no demons or monsters.
"Died in battle? Why would your grandfather die in battle in the Heaven Eye Constellation? "Xia Fei curiously asked, and the others gathered around to listen.
"Don't be afraid. Tell me everything about your family in detail." The old demon lord's eyes were filled with praise, and he turned back to Xia Fei. "The reason why I was in such a hurry to bring him here is because of the strangeness of this matter."
Xia Fei nodded repeatedly. Oro was truly a good brother, being very attentive to his matters.
The youth gulped and said in a trembling voice, "Sirs, you might not have heard of the Lionheart Royal Priest Clan, but we were once an important branch of the Lionheart Clan that was in charge of gods and prayers. Later on, the Lionhearts joined the Law Realm, and everyone gradually stopped believing in the existence of gods, so our Priest Clan gradually declined."
"However, our tribe has always held the power of healing. Even if we don't become priests, we can still make a living as apothecaries. Aside from that, we're also pretty good purifiers, possessing powerful mental energy …
"My grandfather went to the Heaven Eye Constellation to find some natural treasures that apothecaries needed, but that constellation was extremely barren. My grandfather couldn't find any useful medicinal ingredients, but he did discover the existence of powerful mental energy there.
"Later on, my grandfather returned home a few times. He took the things he needed and hurried back to Heaven Eye Constellation, saying that there was a power there that could strengthen his mind. Perhaps it could revitalize the tribe of priests, so he went there to cultivate.
"Later on, my grandfather died. Because our family is a descendant of priests, we have more powerful mental energy than the average clansman, so my grandfather sent a mental energy source to the family before he died.
"It's a pity that our family's spiritual communication method isn't perfect. When my grandfather's message reaches the family, By the time my grandfather's message reached the family, my father had already died, and I'm in charge of the family now, so the message landed directly in my brain. "
Xia Fei was slightly taken aback. Every tribe had a priest in the past, but with the advancement of technology and the rise of Law Warriors, the priests gradually declined, and they were known as gods who pretended to be gods. However, anyone with reason would know that those who could become priests all had mental energy that surpassed the average person. This young man said that his family had a method to send messages from thousands of miles away using spiritual energy. It wasn't impossible.
What exactly did your grandfather say? Xia Fei anxiously asked.
"War, my grandfather said that he had unintentionally intervened in a war in the Tian Mu Mountain Constellation, and everyone had strong mental energy. They fought and killed each other, and strange things kept happening. With my grandfather's level, he wouldn't be able to do anything. He could only run for his life in panic, and he didn't dare to face those god-like figures. "
"Moreover, my grandfather said that there are actually deities in this universe. What I saw was probably a battle between deities. He also asked us to strengthen our faith and rebuild the priest race. I hope that one day, the gods living in the Tianmu Mountain Constellation will be able to contact our race. Then we have to respect these gods and pray for them. "
After saying that, the young man performed a salute that only priests in ancient times would use. Everyone was stunned. After all, the profession of priests had long been extinct, and no one had ever seen a living priest.
"Alright, go down and wait for me." The old demon lord waved his hand and said.
Once the young man was far away, Xia Fei and the others could only stare at each other, speechless. Xia Guanghai was the first to unhappily say, "Oro, is that the insider you found? If not for the fact that he's a descendant of your Lionheart royalty, I would have slapped him to death! "
"His grandfather encountered a battle between deities in the Tianmu Mountain Constellation? Are you trying to fool a child?! There's no god in this universe! "
Oro's eyes widened. He was also someone who could be persuaded by reason but not cowed by force, and his expression immediately turned ugly.
"We Lionhearts might not be smart, but at the very least, we won't lie like you humans!" "Pa, pa, pa!" Oro slapped his chest loudly. "The Lionheart royalty values reputation and honesty above all else! You suspect that my clansman is lying, and that's a provocation to us Lionhearts! "
"Hmph ~"
Xia Guanghai coldly harrumphed. The Skywing Clan was famous for being unreasonable, and Xia Guanghai was especially rude and unreasonable. The two of them were like little bags, wanting the slightest hint of trouble.
"Alright, what's there to argue about? I believe that young man's words. When he spoke, he only blinked thirty-seven times, his pupils constantly contracting. It doesn't look like he's lying at all," Xia Fei lightly said.
Everyone immediately rolled their eyes. Xia Fei's observational skills were truly impressive. He had even quietly counted how many times the other party blinked. What was there to say about that?
After a pause, Xia Fei continued. "From what he said, we can draw two conclusions. First, there are some places in the Tianmu Mountain Constellation that possess powerful mental energy, making it suitable for mental cultivation. Second, the Tianmu Mountain Constellation might be connected to other places, and many people with powerful mental energy will choose to go there for intensive training. With so many people, it's hard to avoid conflict. This young man's grandfather probably accidentally got involved in someone else's battle and died. "
Fuchen and Ulan nodded, agreeing with Xia Fei's explanation.
Xia Guanghai still could not figure it out. He shook his head and said, "I've been to Tianmu Mountain, and so have many in the clan. How could there be any powerful mental energy there? If there were, how could we not have discovered it? "
Xia Fei smiled. "Don't forget that the Skywing Clan is a speed-type lineage, not a priestess clan that specializes in mental energy. The simplest example is that I'm now a spiritualist, and there are many things that I can sense that you can't."
"Hmm … that makes sense." Xia Guanghai stroked his chin and nodded.
In short, the distant Tianmu Mountain Constellation was even more mysterious. Mental energy was actually similar to soul energy, which was dark energy. There were many similarities, and this was the specialty of the spiritualist lineage.
Xia Fei, Fuchen, and Ulan discussed and immediately decided to set off for Tianmu Mountain. Xia Fei's only worry was time. It was a long journey, and if he wanted to return to the Alpha Universe and participate in the Genesis' Fall event, time was of the essence.
"I'll say this first. We can only stay in the Tianmu Mountain Constellation for three days at most. Once the three days are up, we must return even if we don't discover anything," Xia Fei said in a deep voice after some thought.
Ulan was unhappy. "Xia Fei, do you really care that much about the Genesis' Fall? To be honest, that place is really weird. It's not necessarily a bad thing not to go. Besides, the Dark Spiritual Masters are obviously going to stir up trouble when the Creator's Fall Domain opens. Why do you want to get involved in this mess? "
Xia Fei smiled and asked, "Have you been to that place before?"
Ulan shook her head awkwardly. "I'm a genius! A genius of the plant-type spiritualist lineage wouldn't need to go to such a place to try their luck. "
Xia Fei's eyes sparkled. "None of you have been to such a place, so you don't know what's there. I've done some research, and the most powerful spiritualist of every generation practically all came from the Genesis' Fall, right?"
…
Leaving right after arriving made Xia Fei feel that he had let Avril down. Not long ago, he had made a big fuss about marrying her, yet he could not even spend a few days with her.
When it was noon, Xia Fei pushed aside everything and brought Avrils back to Earth.
It was inevitable for them to be lovey-dovey, and Xia Fei did not forget to have a bowl of his favorite zhajiang noodles.
Patting his tummy, Xia Fei lit a cigarette in satisfaction and took a deep drag.
Avril was watching Xia Fei from the side, resting her chin on her hand. She felt very satisfied every time Xia Fei ate. That focused look on her face was just like when Xia Fei was working.
"I realized that you Earthlings really have the problem of finding it hard to leave your homeland. Let's take you for example. You've been to so many places and eaten countless good things, but in the end, you still like black noodles and that kind of low-quality tobacco."
"You're not the only one. Your brothers in Quantum Holdings are the same. Wu Long is now Earth's president, yet he still likes to bake pancakes and smoked meat. You even gave me a Jinhua ham during a festival on Earth. Andre and Charlie both like French baked snails. Seeing them eat those shelled mollusks makes my stomach very uncomfortable. Right, Andre's cigarettes are of a higher grade than yours. They're quite fragrant and not pungent." Avril narrowed her eyes as she spoke, going over the food preferences of her brothers on Earth.
Xia Fei chuckled and awkwardly scratched his head. "Those things are called cigars. Their ancestors were rich, so they live a luxurious life. I can't afford to smoke such expensive tobacco, so this is more suitable for me.
"As for food, it's easier to understand. Earth used to be a closed planet. Everyone could only eat what their hometown produced. After a long time, they developed feelings for it and couldn't change their habits. It's unlike the other planets in the Alliance, where food comes from every corner of the universe. There's plenty of variety, but there's no sense of belonging. Actually, life is very simple for me. I have cigarettes, fried paste noodles, and you. That's enough."
Avril was startled. Xia Fei's words were never serious, actually associating her with cigarettes and fried paste noodles, but for some reason, Avril was not angry at all. There was nothing she could do about it. Anyone who saw Xia Fei's innocent face would find it hard to get angry. His face was just too deceiving.
After a pause, Xia Fei sternly said, "To be honest, I'm leaving again tonight. I'm going to a very far place. After I'm done, I'll have to rush back to Alpha Universe."
"I know," Avril softly said.
"So …"
"I know. In any case, I'll be waiting for you," Avril softly said with a smile.
Xia Fei suddenly felt very helpless. If Avril was a tigress, it would be natural for him to have a few wives and concubines, but Avril was just too considerate. Furthermore, she had gotten together with Xia Fei when he was at his lowest. Xia Fei always felt that if he let her down, then he would really be a scumbag.
What was meant to go had to go. Xia Fei was never the kind of person who could not move his legs when he saw a beautiful woman. Even Avril could not stop him from exploring. This was probably where he was different from other men.
