Chapter 1012: 738 Saintess Wudang

The battle at Spiritual Mountain ended with the Tathagata Buddha entering Nirvana, and Saintess Wudang did not reappear; it was impossible for her to fall, just that no one knew where she had gone.

The jade talisman radiated light, emitting an inexplicable fluctuation, merging into the void.

Thereupon, beyond Heaven and Earth, within Chaos, Saintess Wudang, who was in seclusion on Golden Turtle Island, seemed to sense something and suddenly opened her eyes.

"Is my junior brother seeking me for an important matter?"

Awakening from her seclusion, Saintess Wudang immediately sensed what had disturbed her.

"If it were not for an important matter, my junior brother would certainly not seek me. Just as well, my realm has already stabilized, so I might as well go and see him."

Knowing that Jiang Chen was seeking her for something important, Saintess Wudang did not delay; she got up and hurriedly made her way to the Palace of Upper Qing to bid farewell to the Upper Qing Saint.

"Master, my junior brother is seeking me for an urgent matter. I need to go to the Lower Realm, so I shall take my leave now."

Outside the Palace of Upper Qing, Saintess Wudang respectfully performed a salutation. On the verge of departure, it was only natural to greet her master, as it was a matter of etiquette!

"Go ahead, Yu Dou seeks you, and it must be related to your junior brothers and junior sisters. Have a good discussion with him."

"Remember, no matter what decision you all make, there is no need to be afraid. I am still here, and I will stand behind you all."

From within the Palace of Upper Qing, the Upper Qing Saint’s voice traveled far and wide, infused with indescribable dominance, as if with his presence, he could shield everyone from the storm and bear any crisis.

"Thank you, Master!"

Hearing this, Saintess Wudang’s eyes turned slightly red as she quickly gave thanks with another bow. She knew that after the Jiejiao Sect was destroyed, her master really changed, no longer bound as he was before, and truly let go.

He no longer cared about bullying the weaker, for if anyone dared to raise a hand against his disciples, then he would, without hesitation, strike to kill just like the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign and the Saints of Taiqing.

"Hurry on your way, and do not keep Yu Dou waiting," the Upper Qing Saint urged somewhat impatiently.

Jiang Chen’s plans involved the Jiejiao Sect, and as the sect’s leader, how could the Upper Qing Saint not sense it? As soon as Jiang Chen’s thoughts arose, he guessed Jiang Chen’s intentions.

However, having guessed it did not mean he intended to interfere in the matter. This was a plot among his disciples, and he decided to leave it to them. As for how things would turn out in the end, he would not interfere, leaving the decision entirely to his disciples.

And what he needed to do was to shelter his disciples from the storm. If someone came forward to oppose them, then the Upper Qing Saint would indeed take action, ensuring that the events of the past with the Jiejiao Sect would not repeat.

"Thank you, Master. I am leaving now!"

After another bow to the Upper Qing Saint, Saintess Wudang got up and walked towards the exit.

It was just at this moment, as if something had just occurred to him, that the Upper Qing Saint suddenly said, "Right, you have been in seclusion all these years and are unaware of the changes that have occurred in the Three Realms. Going to the Mortal Realm as you are, I fear you might come across as a laughingstock."

"I will inform you of the recent events so that you won’t be taken aback."

As he spoke, a ray of clear light flew out from the Palace of Upper Qing, directly entering the brow of Saintess Wudang and disappearing from view.

Ever since the battle at Spiritual Mountain ended, Saintess Wudang had been in seclusion on Golden Turtle Island to stabilize her newly advanced cultivation, so she was unaware of many events.

For example, Jiang Chen was now unrecognizable from his former self, serving as the Human King of the Human Race, with combat power that chased after the Great Divine Transcendents.

All these matters needed to be conveyed to Saintess Wudang to prevent her from making a fool of herself in ignorance.

"Innate Dao Sovereign?"

"Annihilation of the Demon Clan?"

"Becoming Human King?"

"This..."

Having seen everything that happened recently in the Three Realms, Saintess Wudang’s pretty face was etched with shock.

In the past hundred years, many significant events occurred in the Three Realms, but all these events revolved around Jiang Chen. In a sense, what’s called a major event in the Three Realms was, in fact, the achievements of Jiang Chen.

"Isn’t this too exaggerated for my junior brother?"

"How many years has he cultivated? At most, three or four hundred years to achieve such astonishing feats, truly shaming others."

It took a long while for Saintess Wudang to regain her composure, yet her tone still couldn’t conceal her shock.

In her eyes, her eldest senior brother Duobao was already a rare genius in the world, unrivaled throughout the Mystic Sect. Yet today, after witnessing Jiang Chen’s experiences, he was completely outshone, not to mention Duobao, to say nothing of comparing across the entire history of the Prehistoric World, there were no existences as monstrous.

His rise was too swift, leaving no chance for anyone to react. Three or four hundred years, to a Great Divine Transcendent, was just the blink of an eye.

In just a blink, Jiang Chen had risen to prominence. When eyes closed, he was but an ant, and upon opening them, he had become a colossus of the Prehistoric World. This was too sudden, with no one able to react in time.

"An extraordinary person naturally performs extraordinary deeds."

"The heavenly favor on Yu Dou is too intense, even surpassing Saints. If it weren’t confirmed that he was of the Human Race, I would have even doubted whether he was a reincarnation of Pangu Great God."

The Upper Qing Saint himself was astounded by Jiang Chen’s rapid rise to power, which was truly inexplicable. While cultivation did not adhere to any logic, Jiang Chen’s case was unusually exaggerated.

In fact, more than one Saint had investigated Jiang Chen’s origins, but unfortunately, apart from recognizing the overly intense heavenly favor he carried, no other discoveries were made.

In the end, the Saints could only attribute Jiang Chen’s abnormalities to the heavenly favor he bore. Perhaps, he was what’s referred to as a "child of destiny."

"If Master has no further instructions, I shall depart now." After digesting the information in her mind, Saintess Wudang set off again to go to the Mortal Realm.
