Chapter 2444: Making a Decision

“It’s normal that you don’t know about the opening of the Jadeite Realm. It’s a major event in the Divine Plane. It has nothing to do with us Saint Realm cultivators,” Guye Jing said.

Zhang Ruochen said, “I’d like to know some of this secret.”

“It’s not a secret. You just need to ask Blood Empress and Wargod Bloodximius. They’ll tell you,” said Guye Jing.

After thinking for a while, she continued, “The Jadeite Realm is one of the five great prehistoric civilization ruins in the universe. There are relics there that can help gods transcend the Yuanhui Tribulation. Therefore, it is a shocking event for the entire Celestial Court and Infernal Court’s Divine Plane.

“Any god who is worried that they will not be able to transcend the Yuanhui Tribulation will go.

“The longer the gods live, the more they must go. Although their cultivation is strong, it’s even harder for them to transcend the Yuanhui Tribulation.

“Even the gods who are confident that they will survive the next Yuanhui Tribulation must go. Because the Jadeite Realm only opens once every Yuanhui period. Any opportunity to enter must be seized by the gods.”

Zhang Ruochen took a deep breath. He finally understood the meaning of the opening of the Jadeite Realm. He said, “Doesn’t that mean that all the gods of Celestial Court and Infernal Court must go to the Jadeite Realm?”

Guye Jing shook her head, “Theoretically, every god is desperate to go,” she said. “But the Celestial Court and Infernal Court don’t trust each other. How can they not leave some gods behind to deal with unpredictable variables?

“We need to be careful about how many gods we leave behind and which ones to leave behind.

“It’s because this matter is so important that the Celestial Court and Infernal Court are keeping a close eye on each other’s gods at this critical time. We can’t afford to make any mistakes.

“If the gods of the Infernal Court were to send out a large-scale operation because of the Fane of Origin, how could the Celestial Court not notice?

“So, the investigation and search for the Fane of Origin can only be assigned to the Saint Realm cultivators.”

Zhang Ruochen thought to himself. It didn’t seem difficult for the three gods of the Xue Jue family to survive the next Yuanhui Tribulation. There was no need to rush to the Jadeite Realm.

However, Wargod Bloodximius had just become the chief of the Bloodysky Clan. He must be leading a team to the Jadeite Realm.

Between his mother and Lord Ming, there should be one person left to protect the family.

Zhang Ruochen said, “You should go to the other Masters of Origin, not me. Are you telling me this to force me to cooperate with you?”

“No, even if I don’t tell you, you will soon realize that the Xue Jue Family is one of the forces that are aware of the superior-grade Divine Crystal of Origin,” Guye Jing said.

Zhang Ruochen narrowed his eyes.

The news of the superior-grade Divine Crystal of Origin came from Hoth.

It would be strange if the huge force of the Xue Jue Family on Hoth didn’t know about it.

However, the force on Hoth was controlled by Madam Nixuan, the wife of Wargod Bloodximius. It was very likely that Madam Nixuan didn’t tell Wargod Bloodximius about it.

Guye Jing continued, “After Yan Wushen died, the Celestial Court and Infernal Court added up to a total of six Masters of Origin. There are three in the Infernal Court…”

“Wait a minute. I remember you said that the Celestial Court and Infernal Court have produced a total of nine Masters of Origin in the past 10,000 years. Even if Yan Wushen dies, there should still be eight, right?” Zhang Ruochen said.

Guye Jing said, “If Yan Wushen can die, are the other Masters of Origin immortal? Geniuses have always been the main targets of assassination between the Celestial Court and Infernal Court.”

Zhang Ruochen smiled. “You make a lot of sense.”

Guye Jing said, “There are only three Masters of Origin in the Infernal Court who are still alive.

“Huan Zhen of the Deathkins is too young. He has just reached the Demi-Saint realm. It’s too difficult for him to find the Fane of Origin with his cultivation.

“Baili Qianye of the Fane of Asura has reached the Paramount Realm. He is a first-class powerhouse in the Saint Realm. Plus, the Fane of Asura is very powerful. If I tell him this news, the Rāhu Mountains will not be able to be involved in this matter.

“The last one was from the Yanluo clan. Yan Huangtu is the available candidate. How can I compete with him?

“These three are not the best candidates. Although they are Masters of Origin, how can they be as close to the Origin as the Lotus of Divine Reflection?”

Zhang Ruochen knew that the one she had her eyes on was Ji Fanxin, the Fairy of a Hundred Flowers.

The Lotus of Divine Reflection was born in the void of the universe. It had no roots or leaves. It was formed from heaven and earth’s Power of Origin and turned into a lotus seed. The bloom is naturally a Master of Origin.

It could be said that Ji Fanxin was the Spirit of Origin and the embodiment of the Power of Origin.

If Ji Fanxin possessed a superior-grade Divine Crystal of Origin, she would almost certainly be able to sense the direction of the Fane of Origin based on the aura of the Divine Crystal.

Zhang Ruochen said, “Since I’m qualified to fight for the superior-grade Divine Crystal of Origin, why should I cooperate with you?

“Because with your current cultivation, you can’t protect Ji Fanxin. If she comes to the Infernal Court to help you, she’ll only die. But with me, I’m afraid no cultivator below the divinity can do anything to her.”

Snap

Guye Jing snapped her finger, and the space shook.

Cracks appeared around Zhang Ruochen like broken glass.

With a boom, he, the table in front of him, and the chair under him fell into the dark void at the same time, like a small island.

Zhang Ruochen was calm on the surface, but in his heart, he was extremely shocked.

This was the Divine Domain of Destiny.

Even Supreme Saint Qingsheng couldn’t destroy the space in such a large area and enter the void.

Guye Jing could.

What did this mean?

Zhang Ruochen took a deep breath and spread out his arms, releasing the Power of Dimensions.

Then the space was pulled back, and the broken space was restored. He returned to the room as if nothing had happened.

Although Zhang Ruochen was very interested in the Fane of Origin, he knew that if he asked to see Ji Fanxin, she might come. However, he would never put her in danger because of this.

Zhang Ruochen sighed. “It’s a pity that Ji Fanxin and I are just ordinary friends. She’s pure and innocent. She’s a fairy who doesn’t live in the mortal world. I’m a traitor to the Celestial Court and joined the Infernal Court. We’re no longer in the same world. She probably already sees me as an enemy and wants to kill me. You’ve come to the wrong person.”

Guye Jing said, “I’ve gathered a lot of information about you and her. I think you’ve misunderstood the word ‘ordinary friend’.”

“Why don’t you believe me?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

Guye Jing said, “I believe in the charm of a Yuanhui-level genius. Few women can reject a perfect man like you.”

“It’s useless to praise me,” Zhang Ruochen said.

Guye Jing said, “I know what you’re worried about. Don’t worry. Our goal in The Rāhu Mountains is the Fane of Origin. Although the Lotus of Divine Reflection is rare, it’s still far from the Fane of Origin.

“I can. I swear in the name of Rāhu that I won’t do anything against her.”

Zhang Ruochen shook his head with a smile.

“The cultivators of the Rāhu Mountains won’t do anything against her,” said Guye Jing.

Zhang Ruochen still shook his head.

“The Rāhu Mountains and I won’t order other cultivators to do anything against her,” Guye Jing reassured again.

Seeing that Zhang Ruochen still had no intention of agreeing, Guye Jing’s tone became colder, she said, “Zhang Ruochen, you still haven’t realized one thing. The moment the superior-grade Divine Crystal of Origin appeared, she was already involved in this mess. She can’t stay out of it.

“Do you think that without you, the Rāhu Mountains wouldn’t be able to capture her?

“If we use force, the Rāhu Mountains will indeed pay a price. It’s even possible that the news of the birth of the Fane of Origin will be exposed. However, you can’t deny that the chances of success are very high.

“Once she’s captured, whether she lives or dies, honor or disgrace, it’s not up to you, Zhang Ruochen.”

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes darkened. Of course, he knew that what Guye Jing said was true.

Back then, even Luo Sha, when she was a Saint King, could freely enter the Celestial Domain of Truth, the core area of the Celestial Court. For the sake of the Fane of Origin, the Rāhu Mountains would go to the Celestial Court world to capture people. The chances of success were indeed high.

Guye Jing said, “Not only the Rāhu Mountains but more than a dozen forces in the Infernal Court know about the birth of the Fane of Origin. How could they let go of Ji Fanxin? Perhaps some forces have already started to take action.

“You think you are protecting her, but in fact, it is precisely because of your inaction that you will harm her.

“Besides, the birth of the Fane of Origin is also a great opportunity for her. If she knows about this, she will go even if she is at risk of dying. Why don’t you give her the right to choose?”

Zhang Ruochen slammed the table and exclaimed, “I have to say, not only is your cultivation powerful, but your words are even more powerful. I was almost convinced by you!”

“Do you think these reasons are not enough?” Said Guye Jing.

Zhang Ruochen shook his head, “No, it’s enough! But your cultivation is too powerful. I don’t have a sense of control when I work with you. Ji Fanxin is the Lotus of Divine Reflection, and you are certain that I have the Demonstone Engraving on me. If the two of us travel with you, we will be like sheep entering the tiger’s den.”

“So you don’t believe me,” Guye Jing said.

Zhang Ruochen said, “I can’t believe you.”

The entire room became quiet. The two of them didn’t say another word.

Outside the room, footsteps could be heard.

Han Yun’ge’s voice came from outside. “Miss Guye, it’s starting over there!”

Guye Jing stared at Zhang Ruochen. “The battle for the five superior-grade Divine Crystals of Origin has begun. Do you want to go?”

“I’m not interested in the Fane of Origin, so I won’t go!”

Zhang Ruochen knew very well that Guye Jing would follow him closely for the next few days. And now was the only time he had a chance to arrange something.

After Guye Jing left with Han Yun’ge, Zhang Ruochen shifted out of the room with the Great Dimensional Shift. He then changed his appearance, he quickly left the House of Enchanteurs.

Cang Jie was waiting at the lakeside outside the House of Enchanteurs.

After Yan Zhexian, Seven-Armed Elder, and Lady Bai’s bet ended, Zhang Ruochen asked Cang Jie to leave the House of Enchanteurs immediately so that he would not be punished for his actions.

“What is your identity, boss? He said that someone wants to harm me. It must be true,” said Cang Jie.

Cang Jie had a huge Tao Tie’s head on his head. He hid his aura and paced back and forth.

He wasn’t worried about Zhang Ruochen’s safety, but that Zhang Ruochen had forgotten about him. He was a cultivator who had ascended to the Infernal Court. He had no background, no sect, and no backing. It wasn’t easy for him to meet a senior. What if he was abandoned?

In the dense forest.

Zhang Ruochen’s body appeared silently from the space. He called out, “Cang Jie!”

Cang Jie was overjoyed. He immediately rushed over and smiled. “Boss, I thought you didn’t want me anymore!”

“Boss?”

Zhang Ruochen was a bit confused. This guy was familiar.

Seeing that Zhang Ruochen didn’t seem to want to take him as a follower, Cang Jie’s eyes showed disappointment, he said dejectedly, “Yes, I’m a Saint King who has ascended from the lower realm to the Infernal Court. I have nothing. I’m not qualified to be your follower.”

Zhang Ruochen had long seen that he was an ascendant. His aura was completely different from those of Asura cultivators born and raised on the Ashuran Planet.

Zhang Ruochen patted his shoulder and said, “You don’t need to belittle yourself. All cultivators who can ascend from the lower realm to the Ashuran Planet are top geniuses. Just like Sword God Feng Chen a thousand years ago, he was an ascendant.”

“Do you know Sword God Feng Chen?” Cang Jie could not help but show admiration in his eyes.

Zhang Ruochen said, “No.”

“Sword God Feng Chen has ascended to the Ashuran Planet less than a thousand years ago. He already has the power to kill gods. How can I compare with him?” Cang Jie said.

Zhang Ruochen said, “If you help me with something, not only will I take you in as my underling, but I will also give you enough cultivation resources so that you can have a chance to peek at the Great Path of Paramount.”

“Really?”

Cang Jie was so excited that he almost roared. He grabbed Zhang Ruochen’s body with his two claws and shook it hard.

Zhang Ruochen’s body was like a rock. He did not move at all. He said, “If you shake it again, it won’t be real!”

Cang Jie quickly let go and smiled awkwardly.

Zhang Ruochen said, “I need you to go to the Battlefield of Merits of Kunlun immediately. Your cultivation has not reached the Supreme Saint Realm, so you can enter it.”

“To do what?” asked Cang Jie.

Zhang Ruochen said, “Deliver a letter for me… No, help me find someone and deliver a message.”

It was too dangerous to send a letter. What if it was intercepted?

“Is that person a cultivator from the Celestial Court?” asked Cang Jie.

Zhang Ruochen was surprised. “How did you know?”

“Why would you need me, a cultivator you’ve only met once, to help you with your cultivation if you’re looking for an Infernal Court cultivator? Besides, since you’re willing to pay such a high price to nurture me, a Saint King, it’s obviously very important and dangerous,” Cang Jie said.

Zhang Ruochen stared at him deeply and smiled. “You’re smarter than I thought.”

“An ascendant without a backer or background must not only be a Tao Tie with his tail between his legs but also be smarter. Otherwise, he’d already be dead!” Cang Jie said with a sad face.

Zhang Ruochen said, “This is indeed dangerous. You can choose not to go.”

“I will go! I, Cang Jie, am a gambler. Thank you for giving me such an important task. If I’m timid this time, I won’t have a chance to see the Great Dao in the future. Don’t worry, boss. If the truth is exposed, I won’t let the information leak even if I blow up my Sainthood Source.”

Then, Cang Jie asked in a low voice, “Boss, can I ask you something personal?”

“You ask,” Zhang Ruochen said.

Cang Jie’s eyes were filled with anticipation and nervousness. He licked his lips and said, “Boss, are you The Scion of Time and Space, Zhang Ruochen?”

Zhang Ruochen’s gaze swept across him.

Cang Jie immediately withdrew his head and said, “I… I… I just heard someone talking about Zhang Ruochen appearing in the House of Enchanteurs and killing someone. Then I thought that you were the Master of Space and you wanted me to send a letter to the cultivators of the Celestial Court. That’s why I guessed. If I’m wrong, I can’t be blamed. Don’t you think so?”

“No, you’re not wrong,” Zhang Ruochen said.
