Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
After Xu Wan’er received permission to descend to the Lower Realm, her expression did not change much.
However, the joy in her eyes was evident.
Upon leaving Jing Ming’s residence, Xu Wan’er unexpectedly met her two senior brothers who had been waiting for her outside.
“Junior sister Wan’er, I heard that you’re going to the Moongazer Serpent Realm too?”
Spirit Sword Sect Cultivator Hua Ce looked at Xu Wan’er and asked with a smile.
With his handsome appearance and his temperament, Hua Ce had a good relationship with women in Spirit Sword Sect.
He was also known as the Playboy of Spirit Sword Sect.
In contrast to his appearance, Hua Ce was not weak at all.
Although he had only cultivated for 500 years, he had already reached the fifth level of the Nascent Soul Stage.
Such a level of cultivation was definitely not weak among the cultivator who participated in the thousand-year battle.
With the Earth Grade Spiritual Sword, known as the Hundred Flower Burial, Hua Ce could take on an ordinary cultivator at the sixth or seventh level of the Nascent Soul Stage, despite being only at the fifth level himself.
After all, the Hundred Flower Burial was ranked 56th among the 108 swords of the entire Spirit Sword Sect.
It was enough to show that Hua Ce had extraordinary strength.
In fact, if it wasn’t for the fact that the thousand-year battle this time was limited to cultivators below the age of 500…
The Spirit Sword Sect could have sent out more powerful disciples.
However, this rule was set by the Stellar Moon Cave and the Spirit Sword Sect in the early years to prevent the battle from escalating by suppressing the scale of the battle to the younger generation.
Otherwise, a cultivator like Xu Wan’er who had yet to enter the Nascent Soul stage would not have been able to participate in the thousand-year battle.
After all, this thousand-year battle would determine the ownership of the Chaos Spiritual Mine for the next thousand years.
For Spirit Sword Sect, this was also a relatively important matter.
However, the Spirit Sword Sect was more interested in showing their powerful side in the thousand-year battle.
It was the same for the Stellar Moon Cave.
A Chaos mine vein could be said to be important or not.
Which of the top factions in the Upper Realm did not have dozens or hundreds of Chaos mine veins?
Without so many cultivation resources, how could they support such a big crowd?
In the face of Hua Ce’s initiative to strike up a conversation, Xu Wan’er appeared very calm.
“Wan’er greets senior brother Hua. Yes, I have just received the approval of the ancestor to enter the Moongazer Serpent Realm.”
Seeing Xu Wan’er’s polite and distant attitude, Hua Ce did not have much of a reaction. He still greeted her with a smile.
After replying to Hua Ce, Xu Wan’er continued, “Senior brother, if there’s nothing else, I’ll leave first. After all, I still have a lot of things to deal with in the Lower Realm. I’ll contact you when I’m free.”
Xu Wan’er left immediately after expressing her thoughts, leaving Hua Ce and the other Spirit Sword Sect cultivator standing in place.
After Xu Wan’er left, Hua Ce’s follower, Song Zhiyuan, could not help but ask, “Senior brother, since you have feelings for junior sister Xu, why didn’t you ask to accompany her down to the Lower Realm just now?”
“Although junior sister Xu is the host of the Heavenly Sword, your Hundred Flower Burial isn’t weak either. Moreover, your family elders are also the elders of the sect.”
“If you can become practitioner partners with junior sister Xu, it will definitely be of great help to you.”
Hearing Song Zhiyuan’s words, Hua Ce said confidently, “Zhiyuan, one can’t rush the matter of a practitioner partner. Although junior sister Wan’er only joined the sect not long ago, Elder Jing Ming has already shown a great deal of care for her. If I impulsively pursue junior sister Wan’er, I might offend Elder Jing Ming.”
“Have you forgotten that the person who tested us was Elder Jing Ming? I don’t want to invite trouble to myself because of this.”
“Besides, the thousand-year battle won’t end so soon. I still have a lot of time to interact with junior sister Wan’er.”
“Senior brother, I should also pack up properly and prepare to enter the Lower Realm.”
“I heard that this time, the Stellar Moon Cave has sent Shen Hongxuan out. I wonder if that guy has improved over the years. After all, I’ve always remembered that claw from back then.”
“Senior brother is right.”
At the same time, after Xu Wan’er returned to her residence, she quickly began to organize the things she needed to bring to the Lower Realm.
As someone who had been by Lu Yuan’s side for a long time, Xu Wan’er’s style of doing things was inevitably influenced by Lu Yuan.
Although she knew that this thousand-year battle was essentially a spar between the juniors of the two sects and there would not be too much danger.
However, Xu Wan’er did not think so. She would consider many possible dangers in advance.
Therefore, Xu Wan’er had practically emptied her residence.
She brought everything she possibly could.
Among them, there were many rare herbs that she had specially collected.
These herbs might not be rare in Spirit Sword Sect, but it was different for the Lower Realm.
Each of the herbs could make the people in the Lower Realm fight over them.
If it wasn’t for the fact that her status wasn’t high enough and that some herbs couldn’t be carried with the Mala beads…
Xu Wan’er could even empty the entire Spirit Sword Sect’s Herb Fields.
Naturally, she did not do this for herself. After all, she did not know any alchemy methods.
She was obviously doing this for Lu Yuan.
Xu Wan’er was very clear that if these herbs were given to Lu Yuan, they would definitely be of great help to him.
Thinking of the scene when she met Lu Yuan with these herbs not long later, a rare smile appeared on Xu Wan’er’s face..
