Chapter 473: Jade Eclipse Star [1]
Zhao Tian was sitting on the bed, with his back leaning on the headboard, his arms wrapped around the bare shoulders of Shi Yixian and Xia Shenyi.
WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK!
Both of their jaws are on the soft mattress of the bed as they heard Zhao Tian's explanation of what happened.
Snapping out of her shock, Xia Shenyi hurriedly hugged him, burying her face in the crook of his neck "I am so glad.. you are alright, Tian..."
Feeling her soft breasts press against the warmth of his chest, Zhao Tian's hand slipped down from her shoulder and reached her waist as he gave her a gentle squeeze.
A smile appeared on his lips and he kissed her head "Well.. I was lucky as I managed to slip into the core of the rupture without great injury."
Shi Yixian let out a deep sigh as she uttered "I am really surprised... My Liege, you survived a rupture."
"And that woman…" Shi Yixian's voice trailed off for a moment, her eyes narrowing slightly as she tried to recall.
"Eleanor Di Laurentia… I have never heard that name before. At least not in the Astral Realm. Maybe it's because so many years have passed. Perhaps her name has been forgotten…"
Zhao Tian shrugged faintly "I am not sure... but after hearing her way of speaking and as she instantly saw through me, I knew she was the real deal."
At this time, Xia Shenyi frowned slightly and muttered, her breath tickling his neck "Maybe.. because she is the Heavenly One, the Honoured One fought her before the Heavens..."
"Or after defeating Eleanor... the Honoured One attained Godhood?"
Hearing the question, Zhao Tian shook his head "I asked that to her, but she said she doesn't remember much of her fight against the Honoured One and doesn't know she became a God."
Shi Yixian's gaze squinted as she spoke "So now her shattered soul fragments are in other ruptures... and her memories too?"
"Yeah... the first Honoured One was so powerful that her attacks are having an everlasting effect."
As he spoke, he lifted his hand and slowly pressed it against the empty air before him.
The fabric of space trembled beneath his touch, and with a soft, almost imperceptible *crack* it began to tear slightly, revealing the raw, chaotic energy that lay hidden beneath the surface.
"I think…" Zhao Tian mused, his eyes narrowing slightly as he studied the tear he had created, "I can finally create those space runes I've been thinking about. I've been theorizing about them for a while now, but this experience has given me a better understanding of how space itself operates."
His gaze narrowed slightly "It might come in handy sometimes..."
...
Meanwhile, as they were conversing... Fei Lingxi and Fei Ziyu are cleaning the ark and arranging the things in its place.
Fei Ziyu had a worried expression on her face as she turned the chair and moved it close to the table "What do you think.... happened to him?"
"He was surely injured but then he healed him... as there were bloodstains on his torn clothes."
A deep sigh escaped Fei Lingxi's lips as she replied "Ziyu... we are not his women, we are just his slaves..."
"How will he share his personal experience with us... We don't have the right to know what really happened."
"We also have to arrange the things in the kitchen.... Quicker."
"Don't ask things and do your job."
"Yeah... yeah..."
...
*swish* A sleek ark was streaking through the space leaving a trail of blue energy.
Sitting in the control room, Zhao Tian glanced at the dark space in front of him through the panoramic window in front of him.
His fingers are gently threading through Shi Yixian's silver hair who was sitting on his lap as she nestled her head on his chest "My Liege.. is it really ok to have that woman in the artifact?"
Zhao Tian gave a faint nod as he continued patting her head "Yeah.. she is already branded with my slave seal. And she is a remnant soul, there isn't much she can do..."
"Hmm..."
Zhang Yuan's gaze flickered to the holographic timer on the top and a mumble escaped his lips "A week... to reach Jade Eclipse Star."
...
A week has already passed-
Zhao Tian who was standing inside the control room, glanced at the beautiful solar system and quickly drifted the ark to the 4th planet in the solar system.
As the ark move closer to the planet, Zhao Tian smiled softly, looking at the blue green planet which has a transparent barrier around it.
With a thoughtful look, he mumbled to himself "I should wear robes.. I don't want to be looked strangely..."
...
*fwoosh* The ark slowly passed through the transparent barrier around the planet and entered its atmosphere.
Standing on the control room, Zhao Tian searched for a forest to land on and a slight frown crept his face "By what Shenyi said.... I should land near Zhennan Empire."
"No one is allowed to fly over the Empire except for people who has the Emperor's permission."
Zhao Tian mused, tapping the edge of the control panel "And this ark would surely catch some eyes, so I better land on the forest near Zhennan Kingdom and enter the city through walk."
Zhao Tian turned to glance at the holographic map of Jade Eclipse star.. which shows the kingdom names and the Sect he is going to enter.
"Hmm.. It has maps of only Ebon Luohe and Jade Eclipse Star.. it is as if Artoria know I will go to... Jade Eclipse Star hahaha..."
Soon, looking through the map, Zhao Tian's ark reached the Zhennan Empire and landed on the Great Tianque forest quite close to the nearby city, Liyang City.
As the ark descended close to the trees, shaking its leaves, Zhao Tian stepped out out the ark floating in the air and retracted the ark back in his space ring.
"Now...I have to go to the Liyang city."
