“Her name is Bai Lanhua, and there are several sovereigns by her side. They are Xia Qixuan, Huang Shuang’er, and Shen Yuying, and their cultivation is between the 6th and 7th Stage Sovereign Realm.” Chen Li was stunned to hear that there were so many powerful women in the Seven Moon Realm. “Oh, she still has one more aide; her name is Shao Xiying, and her cultivation is at the 5th Sovereign Realm. Even so, her four aides rarely make public appearances, but their families completely control the Holy Moon City.”
“Are their families also as strong as them?”
“The patriarchs of the Xia, Huang, Shen, and Shao Clans are in the 8th Sovereign Realm. As for the Bai Clan, their patriarch is Bai Lanhua’s little brother, and his cultivation is also on par with hers.”
Chen Li was really shocked when he heard about them, especially since the Seven Moon Realm was in the lower realm. ‘Sigh, what about the middle realms and above? Those cultivators are definitely much stronger.’
[Haha.] Chen Meiyi laughed and told him. [Actually, you don’t need to think about them for now, and you only need to focus on your cultivation, Li’er. Even in the Five Divine Heavens, there are still many cultivators whose cultivation is below yours.]
‘Sigh, you’re right, Big Sis.’ Chen Li replied with a soft sigh. ‘There’s no point in me thinking about people in the middle realms and above for now.’
“Are you shocked by the strength of the people in this realm?” Chen Li nodded to him, but Di Xiong then sighed. “Unfortunately, the people of the Holy Moon City have never interfered in the affairs of the city in other regions, so some clans like the Nalan Clan can do as they please.”
“Anyway, Grandpa Xiong, I captured Xi Yue, a subordinate of Nalan Jie.” Di Xiong looked surprised after hearing that, and Chen Li explained it to him. “When we were walking around the city earlier, I sensed that she wanted to kill me, so I captured her. However, I didn’t kill her, and I locked her up somewhere else.”
“You can do whatever you want with that woman, and you don’t need to think about the Nalan Clan. Even if you kill her, they won’t dare attack us openly, especially since Nalan Xu is still in seclusion right now.” Di Xiong then asked him. “Can you tell me about your realm?”
Chen Li nodded and told him many things about the earth, which made Di Xiong really surprised, especially about the absence of Qi there. He also told him how he became a cultivator, but he didn’t tell him about Tianyi Realm and the system.
“Do you know any realms higher than our realms?”
Chen Li didn’t answer his question right away, and he discussed it with Xiao Huoli and the others first. After they all agreed, he then answered Di Xiong. “Honestly, I have only heard of one realm from my master and senior sisters because they come from that realm, and the name of that realm is the Five Divine Heavens.”
“Five Divine Heavens?” Di Xiong looked amazed by the name.
Chen Li nodded to him. “The Five Divine Heavens is the highest realm in this universe, but I myself have never been to that realm, and my master asked me to train in the lower realms first, especially since life there was harsh and brutal.”
“I see.” Di Xiong then said to him. “Your master and senior sisters’ decision is reasonable, Long Wang. After all, our strength is not built overnight, and we have to go through many processes to become strong. If they directly take you to the highest realm, you will have great difficulty adapting to the harshness of life there, especially since you haven’t been a cultivator for long. Even though this realm is in the lower realm, life in this place is also not easy, so you can learn to adapt to it first. Once you become stronger and you feel that this realm is no longer challenging, then you can go to the higher realms.”
“Your words are true, Grandpa Xiong.” Chen Li replied as he nodded repeatedly. “Since all the new sects opened registration in three months, and I also still have to return to my realm regularly, I plan to stay in the Southern Forest and train there first.”
“Why don’t you all stay in my clan?” Di Xiong asked with a raised eyebrow.
“If Nalan Jie knew that we were still here, he would definitely continue to send people to do something to Xian’er, which would disturb the peace of this clan, so I decided that way.” Di Xiong actually didn’t mind it, but Chen Li hurriedly continued. “Moreover, we want to hone our fighting skills by fighting beasts, so I think staying in the forest is the best choice for us.”
Di Xiong sighed softly and nodded to him. “If you have decided like that, then I will not interfere with your decision. However, if you need anything, my clan will always be open to all of you, and you don’t need to hesitate to ask for my help.”
“Thank you.” Chen Li suddenly remembered something. “Anyway, I also plan to find a residence in this realm, but Xian’er doesn’t want to live in the city, and she wants to live in a quiet place outside the city. Besides, I also want to buy a shop, and I want to set up my own business in this place.”
“Oh?” Di Xiong was surprised to hear that. “What kind of business do you want to set up?”
Chen Li then took a sandwich and gave it to him. “It’s quite popular in my realm, and Di Chen seemed to enjoy it before, so I thought about opening a restaurant in this realm.”
“I’ll call my wife and Nianxue first.”
Before long, Yu Shi and Yang Nianxue had arrived in the room, and Chen Li gave them one sandwich each. He then explained his idea of opening a restaurant, and they immediately tasted the sandwiches in their hands.
“Wow! This sandwich is really delicious!” Yang Nianxue spoke as she savored the taste.
“Even though it looks simple, it tastes really delicious.” Yu Shi then asked him. “How do you make it?”
“Honestly, I didn’t make it, but I bought it from a shop in my realm, Grandma Shi.” Chen Li replied as he handed them some more. “If you guys like it, I’ll be bringing more in the future.”
“Hehe, yes, you should bring more.” Yang Nianxue said as she gave a soft laugh. “If you want to open a restaurant in this realm, you can bring some other kinds of food first, and we will discuss it later.”
Yu Shi nodded in agreement with her. “Nianxue is right, Long Wang. This realm also has sandwiches, but the differences between the two are stark, and I can taste several different kinds of spices on your sandwiches, unlike ours.”
“All right.” Chen Li nodded in agreement. “I’ll probably return to my realm in two to three days, and I’ll bring some dishes with me when I return to this realm.”
Yang Nianxue then said to him. “My daughters told us that they want to go with you, and we have allowed them to go there, so please take good care of them.”
“Don’t worry, Aunt Yang. There are no cultivators in my realm, so no one will be able to harm them there.” Chen Li answered as he nodded.
“Anyway, what kind of residence do you want to find?” Di Xiong asked him, and Chen Li immediately told him about Feng Xian’er’s preference for their residence, including its size, especially since their family was quite large. “If you wish to buy such a large residence, I have one place that suits your wife’s preference. However, the owner is currently in another region, and he may not be back for another two weeks.”
“No problem; I’m not in a rush either, Grandpa Xiong.”
“All right, I’ll tell you right away once that person returns.”
After he discussed some other things with them, Chen Li went straight to his room, but he saw Feng Xian’er having a serious conversation with Xuanyuan Wan’er.
“Come here, hubby.” Chen Li sat directly beside her wife. “Hubby, the Xuanyuan Clan from the north are also descendants of Wan’er’s ancestors, so she wants to go there to meet them.”
“Oh?” Chen Li turned to Xuanyuan Wan’er in surprise.
Xuanyuan Wan’er then showed him the painting of Xuanyuan Lanyin, and she also explained to him about her previous conversation with Di Xiong and Yu Shi, including about Xuanyuan Lingyan.
Chen Li nodded in understanding. “Since we don’t know anything about the Xuanyuan Clan, we should wait for Xuanyuan Lingyan to come out of her seclusion first.”
“I think so too.” Feng Xian’er then asked her husband. “Are we going back to the forest now?”
“Yes.” Chen Li replied with a nod. “I’m still too weak now, and I don’t want to continue relying on dragon transformation and dragon strengthening, so I want to immediately return to the forest to fight with the beasts there.”
“I see.” Feng Xian’er nodded in understanding. “I will contact Sister Chen and Di Jing now, and we will leave after that.” 𝙚𝙙𝙣𝒐𝙫𝙚𝙡.𝙤𝙧𝒈
However, the Di Sisters decided to go with them, and Feng Xian’er immediately agreed. After they spoke to their families, Chen Li directly brought them all to the Southern Forest using the Void Tunnel.
