There were many forces in Shadow Ghostly Prison, but only one force could resist the Shadow Tribe: the Fighting League!
The Fighting League was formed by many forces of different races. It used to be scattered. When the Shadow Tribe arrived and started to nibble the other forces, the scattered forces of the Fighting League gradually gathered to compete with the Shadow Tribe for the leadership of Shadow Ghostly Prison.
Most of the time, the Fighting League had the upper hand. In the most brutal battles, the Fighting League had the last laugh.
The reason why they couldn't expel the Shadow Tribe was that the Shadow Tribe could come and go without a trace. Until now, they couldn't locate the base of the Shadow Tribe. This race that had suddenly appeared in Shadow Ghostly Prison was so mysterious. No one knew where they were hiding. Every time they were defeated, the Shadow Tribe could use the special broken void of Shadow Ghostly Prison to retreat. They just got hurt, but their foundation wasn't damaged.
The Fighting League had six great war divisions. Each of them was powerful and controlled by six experts.
Today, the Windstorm War Department of the Fighting League suddenly landed on life star No. 9 of the Medicine and Vessel Pavilion. Giant battleships anchored in the void like clusters of dark clouds, giving people a heavy pressure.
The first battleship was in the shape of a flying bird. It was around five thousand meters long. Its wings were as sharp as blades, emitting cold light.
By the lake underneath, hundreds of warriors of the Medicine and Vessel Pavilion lifted their heads to look at the dense battleships in the sky, waiting in silence.
Not long after that, many Cyan Phoenix war chariots flew out from the leading battleship. These war chariots were in the shape of birds, covered with beautiful five-colored feathers. They were agile and nimble. While flying, they echoed magical chirps like birds singing.
The Cyan Phoenix war chariots were also made by the Medicine and Vessel Pavilion. They were the highest level war chariots of the Medicine and Vessel Pavilion. They were famous for their fast speed. They could come and go like lightning.
Cyan Phoenix chariots slowly swooped down, their postures graceful. On top of the chariot in the front, there was a pink crystal lotus seat, inside of which sat an extremely beautiful woman. She was wearing a bright and colorful dress, the edge of her dress decorated with wonderful patterns, as if it was flowing with light. The woman's black hair was like a waterfall, draping over her voluptuous waist, revealing her snow-white jade feet, her ankles wrapped in an exquisite blue crystal anklet, the energy fluctuations inside were extremely obvious.
The woman sat neatly on the pink crystal lotus throne. She looked like a flawless, beautiful, and beautiful flower. Her pink lips curled into a cold smile. She looked like a goddess looking down on all living creatures. She slowly descended from the sky.
Zaduo put on a serious face. He hurried to greet her. His cold face squeezed out an ugly smile. He raised his voice and said passionately, "Miss Xia XinYan, your presence brings light to our humble house. Welcome, welcome."
Fu Wei lifted her head, looking at the descending woman. Her eyes brightened as she was attracted by the elegant and graceful aura of the other.
As they were both women, Fu Wei discreetly compared them. She felt ashamed of her inferiority and secretly envied them.
"Thank you, the Tenth Elder and the Twelfth Elder of the Medicine and Vessel Pavilion to welcome me personally. I don't deserve it." Xia XinYan grinned. Her white teeth were sparkling like precious gems, which could attract people's minds.
The guards of the Medicine and Vessel Pavilion lifted their heads to see her graceful arrival. They were attracted by her graceful body. Their eyes sparkled with hidden heat. Facing beautiful women, men always couldn't control the passion in their hearts. Xia XinYan held a high position in the Fighting League. Her appearance and aura were both outstanding. Of course, she could attract their attention.
"If Miss Xia can come here personally, of course, we will greet you personally." Zaduo chuckled. After she got off the Cyan Phoenix war chariot, he hurried to talk. "We've prepared a banquet. We're just waiting for Miss Xia."
When he was talking to Shi Yan, he was cold and arrogant. However, when he was talking to Xia XinYan, he was polite and smiling. His attitude was totally different.
The reason why he had such a big difference was that he knew Xia XinYan's position in the Fighting League. The warriors who could control the Windstorm War Department of the Fighting League were the most influential characters in the League. Especially Xia XinYan, the Hegemon of the Fighting League, who was a strong force in Shadow Ghostly Prison and Agate. They weren't weaker than the Monster Clan or the Demon Clan.
"Then I'll have to trouble you guys." Xia XinYan's white face beamed a faint smile. She nodded and walked to the lake with Zaduo and Fu Wei.
The water in the center of the lake quietly parted, revealing a path made of crystal jade. It was radiant and led directly to the interior of life star number nine.
Entering the ground, they saw a whole new world. The massive dome was covered with broken gemstones. It looked like a starry sky with dazzling lights. Inside the dome were many white jade columns with magical patterns carved on them. They were several hundred meters long and supported the massive underground palace.
Inside the main hall, which was larger than ten football fields, were planted with exotic flowers that competed with each other in beauty. There were small streams that crisscrossed and flowed. There were many beautiful jade platforms, and a dazzling array of fine wine and fruits were placed on them. The fragrance of fruits filled the main hall.
This main hall was just a corner of the underground world. The other areas had special battleship refining areas, where tens of thousands of different materials were piled up. Hundreds of alchemists and blacksmiths were busy making special tools, pellets, secret treasures, and armors for the forces of Agate.
The Medicine and Vessel Pavilion had many life stars. This life star number 9 was a massive base for refining pellets and refining treasures, which was controlled by Zaduo and Fu Wei.
Inside the main hall, young girls from different races were walking around with plates of fruits in their hands like butterflies. A chubby old woman was sitting on the main seat. She smiled until her eyes squinted. Seeing Xia XinYan, she waved her hand. "Come here and sit."
Zaduo and Fu Wei were cautious when they saw the old woman. They bent their bodies to greet her, greeting her in unison. "Third Elder."
Third Elder Bettina was one of the founding members of the Medicine and Vessel Pavilion. She was wearing a long, dark blue gown. Her hair was tied up in a bun, and she wore many exquisite rings on her fingers. She had more than one hundred accessories on her body, each of which had its own function.
Seeing the old woman, Xia XinYan was a little scared. She hurried to greet her. "Greetings, Third Elder."
"How is your Hegemon these days?" Bettina smiled and asked.
She was one of the founding members of the Medicine and Vessel Pavilion. She had a noble status, so of course, she couldn't go out to greet her personally. She had taken time out of her busy schedule to come here, which was already giving face to Xia XinYan. At her level, unless the Hegemon of the Fighting League came here personally, she wouldn't lower herself to greet her.
"Hegemon is cultivating in seclusion. She's doing well. Thank you for your concern, Third Elder," said Xia XinYan seriously.
"Sit down, sit down. Speaking of which, your Hegemon and I used to travel around the world. And you..." Bettina looked like she wanted to say something but stopped. She waved her hand and said, "Zaduo, Fu Wei, please stay. The others can leave first."
Many people of Potion and Tool Pavilion who were sitting with them stood up. Even the maids who were serving them left quietly.
Only four people were left in the grand hall: Bettina, Fu Wei, Zaduo, and Xia XinYan. Fu Wei and Zaduo were puzzled. They sat down in the lower seats, looking at Bettina curiously.
Bettina was several thousand years old. In the Medicine and Vessel Pavilion, she wasn't the one with the highest realm, but she was the oldest. Even Great Elder Zuo Lou was her junior.
In the Medicine and Vessel Pavilion and Agate, she was a legendary character. Ordinary people couldn't even meet her for their whole lives. Unless they had reached Incipient God Realm, they would have to pay attention to her.
After Bettina had heard the news of the Sacred Texts, she had come to life star number 9. With her seniority and age, she didn't have to meet Xia XinYan. However, she had insisted. Zaduo and Fu Wei couldn't understand why Bettina valued Xia XinYan that much.
"Sigh, it's been several thousand years. Time flies so fast." After people had left, Bettina sighed and asked, "Do you still remember me?"
Fu Wei and Zaduo were baffled. They were so astounded as they didn't know why she had asked such a question.
She and Xia XinYan knew each other?
The two of them couldn't believe it. They thought it was absurd. Bettina had lived for several thousand years. How could she know a little girl who had just come to Shadow Ghostly Prison for one hundred years? Was there anything more astounding than this?
Under Fu Wei and Zaduo's frightened eyes, Xia XinYan bit her lower lip, her face odd. After a while, she nodded and pointed at her head. "She and you were sworn sisters in her first life. I... I don't know how to count my seniority with you."
She suddenly smiled and said evilly, "If I count it that way, I should call you little sister, right?"
"Little sister?" Bettina was bewildered as if she had fallen into an old memory. She mumbled, "Juvenile. That year, your innate talents were amazing. You had the most magical Time power Upanishad. Your soul had reincarnated seven times. You had been reborn in different star areas. You had used the Time power Upanishad to cultivate many times to understand the truth of Time. But after seven reincarnations, are you still the same person?"
Fu Wei and Zaduo were so frightened that they couldn't believe what they had just heard. They looked at Xia XinYan with deep fear.
"Do you want to hear the truth?" Xia XinYan frowned.
Bettina pondered for a while and then nodded. "I know the truth is hurtful. But you should tell me."
"I'm Xia XinYan. I'm not her. She left me only the Time power Upanishad inheritance and the memories of seven reincarnations. Nothing else. In other words, she's gone. She disappeared in the river of time. Something... went wrong while she was cultivating, "said Xia XinYan seriously.
Bettina forced a smile and sighed. "I knew it would be like that. That year, you and I... no, her and I... my big brother had advised her not to act rashly. But she was stubborn. She ended up like this."
Pausing for a while, Bettina continued, "From the time he insisted that you take charge of the Windstorm War Department and let you control the affairs of the Fighting League, I knew you were special. If you weren't his blood sister, with his personality, how could he treat a stranger like that?"
The 'he' Bettina was talking about was the current Hegemon of the Fighting League. He was also Xia XinYan's blood brother in her first life: Feng Han.
