1994 Little Zhou, Little Zhou
Chu Liuyue’s eyes brightened up. “You mean… that realm gate could directly connect to this place?”
Rong Xiu smiled with deep meaning. “We’ll know whether it does when we go to Taiyang Mountain tomorrow.”
…
The entire Yunzhou was immersed in excitement and emotions.
Early in the morning, Chu Liuyue was awakened by all sorts of noises outside. Outside the door, they could even hear a few familiar voices.
“…Big Brother, you really plan on calling the two of them to follow us?” asked He Zilan in dissatisfaction. “I think that they don’t even know what this challenge is, so they won’t do well. Let’s not bother about them!”
She disliked the two of them very much. They clearly looked very normal in their appearance and clothes, but they did not respect or fear them at all when they saw them.
She really did not know what was so good about them.
He Ziji glanced at her. “Why do you not understand the logic of having more friends means that you have more options in life?”
“How would I not understand? I think you’re the foolish one, Big Brother! If they really participate in the challenge, they will be our direct opponents, right?”
Who would find opponents for themselves?
He Ziji shook his head and did not plan on convincing her.
His younger sister did not have any ill intentions, but she was wilful and narrow-minded. So many people came to attend the challenge, and they had many opponents! Adding one or two people would not affect the results much.
On the other hand, if they pulled the two over to their side, they might even have a higher chance of winning in the final competition.
He felt that the duo’s statuses were not so ordinary.
Thinking of this, He Ziji walked over.
The moment he raised his hand and prepared to knock, the door was pulled open from the inside.
A tall figure appeared before him.
“Brother Baili, y-you’re awake already?” He Ziji stopped his movements. It seems like he probably heard what we said earlier.
He Ziji felt very awkward.
Rong Xiu just nodded with a normal expression. “My wife and I also plan on going to Taiyang Mountain today.”
He Ziji sized Rong Xiu up and saw that the latter didn’t seem to want to pursue the matter, so he could not help but heave a secret sigh of relief.
For some reason, he always felt respectful and fearful in front of this man. Even if the other party had been so polite and well-mannered, the natural dignity and suppression that seemed to come from his bones were still hard to ignore.
“T-then, why don’t we go together? We can take care of each other there. Brother Baili, what do you think of this?” asked He Ziji nervously.
“That would be great.” Chu Liuyue came from behind and smiled sweetly.
He Ziji was dazed for a moment.
He did not notice this yesterday, but now that he saw her again today and that they were closer, he realized that the woman had a pair of extremely beautiful eyes.
Especially when she smiled…
Once this thought flashed across his mind, Rong Xiu half-turned around and stretched out his hand toward Chu Liuyue.
He conveniently blocked He Ziji’s gaze.
He Ziji woke up from his shock as he immediately retracted his gaze, feeling secretly frustrated. It isn’t like I haven’t seen beautiful women in my life. This is too much of me.
He took a step back. “Then, let’s go over there now. If not, there will be many people on the streets.”
…
Once they left, Chu Liuyue and Rong Xiu then realized what He Ziji meant. That was because there were even more people on the streets than the previous day.
This was even early in the morning. In another while, it would really be bursting with people.
Chu Liuyue looked at the bustling crowd and suddenly said, “There really are many people coming. I’m afraid many talents rushed over from all the dynasties right…”
He Zilan snorted. “Of course! As a cultivator, who doesn’t want to pass through the realm gate, enter the God Residence Realm, and become a true god warrior?”
Even though the chances were slim with many difficulties, quite a few people were still willing to sacrifice for it.
As she spoke, she sized Chu Liuyue up and grunted, “Someone like you has no chance at all!”
When Chu Liuyue and Rong Xiu came, they purposely lowered their own cultivation level.
He Zilan just felt that their cultivation levels weren’t high, so she did not really take them into her heart.
Chu Liuyue was not angry about this and just laughed nonchalantly. My motive for this journey was originally different from theirs.
Seeing Chu Liuyue’s reaction, He Zilan felt that she landed her punch on cotton and was rather dispirited. She swiftly snorted coldly and did not speak again.
But at this point, Chu Liuyue lightly said, “This means that those who had good results in the previous challenges all entered the God Residence Realm?”
“Of course!” replied He Zilan definitely. If not, why would so many people come to Yunzhou? The questions this woman asks are really funny.
Just as she planned to mock her further, she heard Chu Liuyue continue, “Did those people come back after they entered the God Residence Realm?”
He Zilan was dazed. Then, she looked at Chu Liuyue as if she were looking at a weird creature. “Of course not! Who would come back again after going to the God Residence Realm?”
The God Residence Realm was a place everyone wanted to go. If they had the chance to go there and break through to become a true god warrior, or someone even stronger—
Wasn’t this what many cultivators desired?
Who would come back?
A dark glint flashed across Chu Liuyue’s eyes before it disappeared.
He Zilan wanted to say something further, but He Ziji pinched her. Thus, she could only keep quiet.
Then, the group of them did not really speak and went forward.
…
More and more people entered their surroundings.
They were unassuming amidst the crowd.
The few of them were like water droplets that entered the river current as they were dragged to Taiyang Mountain.
After about an hour, they finally arrived at the place—the bottom of Taiyang Mountain.
This place was spacious, and the crowd stood in groups. From afar, they looked like dark patches.
There were 500 or 600 people at the least, and these people were considered rare talents outside the God Residence Realm.
Even Chu Liuyue didn’t see so many young and talented cultivators gathered together,when she was in the Tianling Dynasty.
They should be cultivators from various dynasties. But with so many of them gathered together, it was not noisy.
Most of them did not really speak, and only a few whispered.
The atmosphere had an unknown nervousness to it. Clearly, they all cared very much about the challenge that was about to begin.
Chu Liuyue’s gaze unintentionally yet intentionally swept across the crowd.
Actually, she wanted to see if there was anyone from the Tianling Dynasty here…
She suddenly focused her gaze.
A young man stood upright from outside the crowd. He was dressed in a loose, gray sack shirt, and didn’t have any accessories on him.
His originally slim figure became even thinner.
His soft golden hair glowed faintly as the morning sun shone down.
Chu Liuyue’s heart skipped a beat. Little Zhou!
