The heavenly realm is vast.
The scenery is pleasant.
However, Ye Yu had no intention of appreciating it at all.
He kept a cautious watch on his surroundings, slowly flying forward.
He didn't know if there were any more sword energies like the one he encountered earlier.
He hadn't gone far when he saw a floating celestial mountain ahead.
Ye Yu originally planned to go around it.
But then he heard a gentle voice.
To his surprise, someone was hiding here at this moment.
"Are you from the Star Capture Immortal Sect?"
Ye Yu looked up.
He saw a massive swing atop the celestial mountain.
A fairy dressed in colorful garments sat on it.
She looked at Ye Yu with great interest.
This woman was extremely beautiful, rivaling Gan Zhi Zui!
Ye Yu cupped his hands and said, "I am Ye Yu, having just ascended from the mortal realm."
"I am not from the Star Capture Immortal Sect."
Upon hearing this, the fairy gracefully swung down from the swing.
In a flash, she appeared before Ye Yu.
With surprise, she said, "A celestial being who just ascended?"
"Tsk tsk, that's truly rare."
"And a Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox at that."
In front of this fairy, Ye Yu had no secrets at all; he was completely seen through.
But that was normal.
No matter how powerful one was in the mortal realm, upon ascending to the heavenly realm, they would become a lowly newcomer.
There was no way around it.
The fairy casually tossed a fist-sized stone.
Ye Yu instinctively caught it.
Upon holding it, he felt its heaviness and a hint of warmth.
This object looked similar to the spiritual stones from the mortal realm.
But Ye Yu could sense that the power contained within it was far purer than that of a spiritual stone.
The fairy spoke, "Meeting is a matter of fate; this is a heavenly stone, containing celestial power."
"The usage is similar to the spiritual stones from the mortal realm."
"Consider it my gift for our meeting."
"By the way, let me introduce myself. I am Zheng Nuanxiu of the Exorcist Evil Immortal Sect!"
"If you’re willing, you can join my sect!"
Ye Yu felt the weight of the heavenly stone in his hand.
He smiled bitterly.
It seemed this item wasn’t easy to handle!
Ye Yu began to ponder whether he should obediently comply and join Zheng Nuanxiu's sect.
However, at that moment,
A few sword lights flashed from afar, moving even faster than before!
Ye Yu's heart sank, and he wanted to dodge.
But he saw Zheng Nuanxiu raise her hand, blocking in front of him.
As several sword lights attacked, they vanished in an instant.
It was extremely effortless.
Zheng Nuanxiu said calmly, "Recently, some changes have occurred in the heavenly realm."
"Um, it's not something I can explain in one or two sentences."
"If you don’t have a protector with you, it’s very easy to fall."
"Of course, I’m not saying you must join the Exorcist Evil Immortal Sect."
"I'm just suggesting."
"The final decision lies in your hands."
Ye Yu recalled the words of his senior, the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox, Zhi Shui, when he was in the mortal realm.
"Be cautious of celestial beings."
But he still hadn’t figured out the reasons behind it.
After pondering for a moment,
Ye Yu decided to give it a try.
So, he agreed to join Zheng Nuanxiu's sect.
He really wanted to see why he needed to be cautious of celestial beings.
After all, this was just a dream.
If something happened, he could just take it as a lesson learned.
Upon hearing Ye Yu's agreement, a smile flashed across Zheng Nuanxiu's face.
Her attitude became even more enthusiastic.
"Since you’ve joined the Exorcist Evil Immortal Sect, then you’re one of us now."
"In the future, whether it’s cultivation or miscellaneous matters, feel free to come to me if you have any questions!"
"Come on, let’s first take care of business, and then we can return to the sect!"
Ye Yu didn’t understand what Zheng Nuanxiu meant by "business."
But he still nodded in agreement.
Then, Zheng Nuanxiu led Ye Yu eastward.
Before long,
They arrived at a celestial mountain.
Zheng Nuanxiu performed a celestial technique, concealing their figures.
She then pointed forward with her hand.
Ye Yu looked in the direction she was pointing.
He saw nearly a hundred celestial beings engaged in fierce combat.
Various celestial techniques and powers were on display.
From time to time, sword energies flew out.
Ye Yu instantly understood.
The sword energies he had encountered earlier likely erupted from this very place.
To be honest, it was quite inconsiderate.
If it weren’t for the Fortune Avoidance System and Zheng Nuanxiu’s timely block,
Ye Yu could have been killed on the spot.
Ah, indeed, being weak is the greatest sin!
Zheng Nuanxiu whispered, "Ahead are the Star Capture and Wind Riding Cliffs, two sects’ celestial beings are in a chaotic battle."
"The cause is the competition for a ruined sect site."
"They’ve truly brought out their real fire."
"All the celestial beings they can mobilize are here."
"What we celestial beings need to do is wait for the right moment to reap the benefits."
"Of course, with just the two of us, it’s impossible to take down the sect site."
"But if we just go in to grab a few items, the possibility is still quite high."
Ye Yu frowned slightly.
"Sect ruins? Are you referring to the remnants left by the previous sect?"
Zheng Nuanxiu replied, "That can be understood, but..."
Before she could finish speaking,
Zheng Nuanxiu's expression changed dramatically.
She quickly took Ye Yu and darted backward.
In the next second,
The place where they had just been suddenly collapsed!
Ye Yu steadied himself and looked forward.
He saw a man in a gray robe hovering in the air.
With a mocking tone, he said, "I was wondering who it was; turns out it’s Zheng Xianzi from the Exorcist Evil Immortal Sect."
"Surely you didn’t come here just to flirt with your lover, right?"
Zheng Xianzi coldly retorted, "Shut your filthy mouth, He Rusong. After tens of thousands of years, you’re still so annoying."
Just as the man named He Rusong was about to continue speaking,
He suddenly turned his gaze back to Ye Yu.
His eyes then revealed a greedy glint.
"I almost missed it."
"I didn’t expect you to be a Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox."
"The spiritual aura on you hasn’t completely faded; you must have just ascended a few days ago, right?"
"Truly a rare find."
"Zheng Xianzi, how about you give me this fox?"
"Name your price in heavenly stones!"
Ye Yu's expression became extremely serious.
Although he was indeed a Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox,
Logically speaking, since he ascended to the heavenly realm, he should be a celestial being.
But why did this man’s gaze turn so greedy?
As if he were looking at a rare treasure?
Zheng Nuanxiu stepped in front of Ye Yu.
Coldly, she said, "He Rusong, he has already joined my Exorcist Evil Immortal Sect. If you dare to touch him, it would be like opposing the entire Exorcist!"
