Chapter 879: Chapter 879

Regarding the matter of the teleportation array in this world, only Fang Bai knew about it. Fang Bai had decided to wait until Linghu Hongyan finished telling her grievances with Ye Xing before deciding whether to tell her about it.

"During my travels in this world, I found that the Antarctica Continent had abundant Water Element Qi and was rarely visited by people, making it very suitable for cultivation. Therefore, I established the Polar Ice Palace here. After that, each year, I would spend six months in secluded cultivation and the other six months traveling, continuing to search for the teleportation array leading back to the True Martial Realm..."

Linghu Hongyan continued in a calm voice, "At the age of twenty-four, I arrived in Lingnan, Huaxia, and by chance, I met a man who greatly influenced me. This man was about my age and also a martial artist, but only at the Yellow Level of cultivation. He took a liking to me and, seeing my powerful abilities, he took the opportunity to court me under the pretext of seeking guidance in martial arts. Eventually, we became lovers..."

She had not finished speaking when Fang Bai had already guessed that this influential man must be Ye Xing. It seemed that indeed, the relationship between Linghu Hongyan and Ye Xing had turned from love to hatred.

"Later on, I wanted this man to follow me to the Polar Ice Palace, and eventually return to the True Martial Realm together, to be an envied pair of cultivation companions. Unexpectedly, this man said he had a familial mission to revitalize his clan and harshly rejected me. I was so angry that I returned to the Polar Ice Palace alone, where I stayed for a year. When my anger subsided a year later and I went back to Lingnan, Huaxia to find him, he had already married another woman..."

Linghu Hongyan said this with some emotion, her tone filled with a hint of resentment as she continued, "I hated that man for his heartlessness and cruelty, and I really wanted to kill him immediately, but firstly, I felt somewhat soft-hearted at the time, and secondly, I thought killing him outright would be letting him off too easily. So, I came up with other methods to teach him a lesson, planning to deal with him slowly... This man said he had a familial mission to revitalize his clan, right? I would not allow him to succeed!"

"Over the next twenty years, I adopted many orphaned girls, taught them martial arts techniques, and formed the ’Wrathful Beauties’ organization. I initially established this organization with two objectives: first, to speak up for women in this world who were bullied by men and faced injustice, and to seek justice for them; second, to use this organization to accumulate wealth, expand its membership, gather intelligence, and gradually undermine that man’s clan, making him bear the scorn of his clan members, to make him regret and despair, and rue his initial decision..."

Fang Bai couldn’t help but sigh to himself upon hearing this, thinking that when a woman harbors hatred toward someone, her desire for revenge can indeed be strong.

Listening to Linghu Hongyan continue, "Later, due to careless cultivation, I caused my meridians to break, almost completely losing my strength, and I could only stay in bed. At that time, I felt I might not live much longer and started reflecting on some past events. As the saying goes, ’A dying person’s words are kind,’ the hatred in my heart towards that man gradually faded, and I shelved the plans against him. Unexpectedly, after Baimei grew up, she learned about the past between me and that man and became determined to help me deal with him..."

She smiled at Fang Bai, saying, "Mr. Fang is a clever man, you probably know who that man is by now, don’t you?"

Fang Bai nodded and then sighed lightly, saying, "Ms. Linghu, the affection between a man and a woman relies on mutual feelings, and unrequited love never ends well. You were too obsessed with Ye Xing. If you really had killed Ye Xing, that would have been a grave mistake!"

Linghu Hongyan also gave a wry smile and said, "Back then, I felt my power was sufficient to dominate this world, and being somewhat proud and arrogant, I wanted to possess what I liked, so I ended up making some irrational decisions. Looking back now, I really shouldn’t have... Mr. Fang, when you leave, take Ye Xing back to Huaxia with you! From then on, Ye Xing and I will no longer have any entanglements!"

Fang Bai saw Linghu Hongyan admit her mistake, gave a slight smile, and nodded, saying, "Being trapped by love, letting hate grow from love, neither is conducive to a martial artist’s cultivation. It’s best that you have overcome your obsession."

Then Fang Bai asked Linghu Hongyan about some issues related to the True Martial Realm, to which Linghu Hongyan responded one by one.

As one of the three thousand Minor Worlds, the True Martial Realm far surpasses this current world in both size and population, and the abundance of Heaven and Earth Origin Energy and cultivation resources make it an ideal place for martial artists to cultivate.

It is said that even martial artists with no extraordinary talents have the opportunity to reach the Heaven Level Realm in the True Martial Realm, and those with Innate Spiritual Roots can easily achieve the Desolate Level Realm or even higher realms, possessing lifespans of hundreds of years.

In this world, there is a Teleportation Array leading to the three thousand Minor Worlds, and from this, Fang Bai deduced that within these Minor Worlds, there might similarly be arrays leading through the large worlds of the Cultivation World, which is where he hailed from in his past life.

Only by reaching the Cultivation World and utilizing the Heaven and Earth Origin Energy and cultivation resources available there would he have the chance to ascend to the Immortal Realm and return to the nine great Heavenly Domains.

Fang Bai had already made up his mind that, when the right time came, he would travel to the True Martial Realm of the three thousand Minor Worlds.

The four conversed for a long time in the grand hall, eventually turning the discussion to the Martial Dao.

Fang Bai’s ability to cultivate up to the Desolate Level Realm in this world, where the Heaven and Earth Origin Energy is sparse and cultivation resources are severely lacking, seemed unbelievable to Linghu Hongyan.

Linghu Hongyan speculated that the mysterious figure who had taught Fang Bai his Martial Arts Techniques might also have come from a Minor World and was likely a supremely powerful being, and while she felt envious, she earnestly sought Fang Bai’s guidance on some problems she faced in the Martial Dao.

Fang Bai could tell that Linghu Hongyan’s talents were not impressive. The fact that she had reached Heaven Level Perfection relied on the Cultivation Techniques of her Sect and an abundance of cultivation resources. Had she not met him, Heaven Level Perfection might have been the end of her path in the Martial Dao.

Out of respect for her being the master of Linghu Qian Jiao and Linghu Baimei, Fang Bai decided to lend her a helping hand so she could advance further on her Martial Dao journey.

Right away, Fang Bai began to explain some fundamental concepts of Martial Dao to Linghu Hongyan. Although his explanations were simple and easy to understand, they were profound and mysterious to Linghu Hongyan.

After careful contemplation and understanding, it was as if a window had opened up in front of Linghu Hongyan, revealing a vast new world to her. All her past confusion and doubts were suddenly resolved.

"Qian Jiao, Baimei, keep Mr. Fang company while I speak," she said, "I am going to seclude myself!"

Very soon, Linghu Hongyan hastily left the grand hall and headed to a secret chamber at the back to undergo closed-door cultivation. She felt that she had attained a sudden insight, and this secluded cultivation session would bring a major breakthrough in her realm.
