Chapter 1090 “Chu Yi Feng’s Return (10)”
“Elder Jun…” Recalling that determined face of the senior in her mind again, “I’ve succeeded, but you’re no longer by my side anymore.”
I’ve waited a long time for this day to come, yet when I succeeded, the last of my family has already left me….
Slowly standing up from the ground, Liu Qing Yu began to wander through the rain like a zombie towards the back mountain.
“First Elder?” Fourth Elder decides to speak up after getting worried from the terrible state the lady was in. “Shouldn’t we follow her? This girl, she seems to have suffered quite a shock there.”Shaking his head over the suggestion: “No need, just let her go. These sort of stuff needs to be solved by herself, we can’t do anything for her now. Oh yes, remember to go examine the treasury hall here. Those items are to be offered to Her Highness the Queen after we leave this place in a bit.”
Understanding the first elder was right, Fourth Elder immediately clamored up and began the cleaning process for this chaotic battlefield. As for the rest of the survivors of this Spirit Realm, what else could they do when their leader has died before their very eyes? Aside from regret, they didn’t show much sorrow for the dead man because they are worried about themselves and what awaited themselves in the future.
……
A while later, Liu Qing Yu returns again from the back mountain. But unlike before, she was holding an ash urn in both arms and giving off an air of lonely sadness.
“First Elder, can I go back to the Demon Realm with you all?” she eventually asks after a long while of silence.
Answering after a brief deliberation: “You belong to the Her Highness so of course you can return with us.”
Moving those lips in haste at the agreement: “Then can I take my mother’s ash with me too? I do not want to come back to this place ever again in this lifetime.”“That’s not a problem. Alright, I will also task those underneath me to help your mother find a suitable burial ground. This way she can rest in peace.”
This girl was Bai Yan’s subordinate so it’s reasonable for him to do this small favor.
“Thank you…”
As much as Liu Qing Yu would want to bring Elder Jun’s remains along as well, the senior’s body had already turned to dust and disappeared with the wind.
“The hours getting late, we should begin heading back to the Demon Realm soon.” First Elder turns to his peers and continued: “But this Spirit Realm isn’t bad. Fourth Elder, after we return you can go expand the entrance gate to these parts. We will fold this into the Demon Realm’s boundary.”
The territory of the Demon Realm couldn’t be called big in comparison to the human world so it’s time they expanded the territory using this Spirit Realm as the jumping point. After all, certain demonic beasts are quite productive when it comes to their offspring.
“Yes First Elder, I’ll have this done as soon as I get back.” Fourth Elder complies and confirms the order.
“Let’s go then,” slowly turning away, “it won’t be long before the queen and king returns from their own trip. We can discuss the next course of the plan afterwards.”
It’s about right after a thousand years of growth. Even if our Demon Realm isn’t at the peak of its strength, it’s still capable of challenging the Celestial Realm at this point. By then, whatever is owed will be paid back in fold! The first elder’s gaze gradually lowered as the pictures of that cruel war slowly emerged in those old eyes.
