Chapter 668 - 667: The Championship is White Eagle’s! The Divine Son is Great Xia’s
Chapter 668: Chapter 667: The Championship is White Eagle’s! The Divine Son is Great Xia’s
Immortal Venerable Shi Xi asked again, "Do you know what Beast Pets Gu Yuexi contracted in her first life?"
Chu Sheng shook his head, looking completely lost.
It didn’t matter to him what Beast Pets Gu Yuexi had contracted in her first life.
After all, once she met him in her second life, she never contracted any other Beast Pets.
Not until the very end, when she forcibly broke her contract with him.
So, he had never cared which Beast Pets Gu Yuexi had in her first life.
But Immortal Venerable Shi Xi probably didn’t know about this, either.
Chu Sheng voiced his doubt.
"Indeed, I do not know."
Immortal Venerable Shi Xi nodded.
"But for Gu Yuexi to become an Emperor Realm Beast Tamer, she must have had an Emperor Realm Beast Pet."
Chu Sheng was taken aback.
’So that’s how it is.’
A Beast Tamer’s Realm was inextricably linked to their Beast Pets.
Chu Sheng had always been ahead of Gu Yuexi in terms of power.
So he had never given it much thought.
But with Immortal Venerable Shi Xi’s reminder,
Chu Sheng immediately understood what she was implying.
He looked at Immortal Venerable Shi Xi in disbelief.
"Are you saying that this White Eagle girl named ’Xue’..."
"...was the Little Empress’s Emperor Realm Beast Pet in her past life?"
’If a grown man like me can be reborn as a mosquito,’ he thought, ’then it’s perfectly reasonable for a Beast Pet to be reborn as a human.’
Immortal Venerable Shi Xi nodded.
"Correct."
"Ten thousand years ago, I paved the way for Gu Yuexi."
"As long as she cultivated normally, she would have certainly comprehended the Time Law."
"Then she would have used the Time Law to activate the Time Trace Hourglass and summon me."
"Thus, she would have solved the problem of the Forbidden God Law and successfully ascended to the Divine Realm."
"It was understandable that an accident occurred in her first life."
"But in her second life, she still didn’t comprehend the Time Law, which I always found very strange."
"Now it seems the problem lies with that Beast Pet of hers."
"In other words, this girl named ’Xue’."
Chu Sheng’s mind raced.
He picked up where Immortal Venerable Shi Xi left off, continuing the line of reasoning.
"After Gu Yuexi died in her first life, she was reborn together with her Beast Pet."
"But an accident happened during the rebirth."
"Her Beast Pet wasn’t reborn as a beast, but as a human."
"And it took the Power of Time Law that should have belonged to Gu Yuexi."
"What’s more, she was born ten years later than Gu Yuexi."
"Because of this, Gu Yuexi was unable to comprehend the Time Law."
"As a result, I was the one who lucked into the Time Trace Hourglass and summoned you."
"That’s the gist of it."
Immortal Venerable Shi Xi nodded.
"But there is one thing you guessed wrong."
"The reason you were able to activate the Time Trace Hourglass is also causally linked to Gu Yuexi."
Chu Sheng was taken aback.
He had just been speculating that his eighth complete evolution, where he comprehended the Time Realm, was very likely related to Xue.
If that theory was correct, then it would make sense that his Time Law and Xue’s shared the same origin.
As for why he felt Xue was so familiar and comforting the first time he saw her...
It was because in her past life, Xue was Gu Yuexi’s Beast Pet.
And he was Gu Yuexi’s Beast Pet in this life.
With Gu Yuexi as the link between them...
...it made perfect sense that he would feel such a familiar, comforting connection to Xue!
"Immortal Venerable, I understand now."
"Gu Yuexi failed to summon you in her last life and ended up dying to the Forbidden God Law."
"After she was reborn, her Beast Pet became human through a twist of fate."
"And it carried the Power of Time Law from its past life."
"Xue has no memories of her past life, so she didn’t look for Gu Yuexi."
"And after Gu Yuexi got me as her Beast Pet, she didn’t look for the Beast Pet from her previous life either."
"Xue could only live on her own, until she met me."
"In a cycle of karma, I obtained Xue’s Time Law."
"And because of that, Xue soon set foot on the path of cultivation again."
"Finally, I used Xue’s Time Law to activate the Time Trace Hourglass and summon you."
"So, back when I had just summoned you,"
"you were still wondering why it wasn’t Gu Yuexi who summoned you."
Immortal Venerable Shi Xi nodded. "That is indeed the case."
’Since we were both Gu Yuexi’s Beast Pets, this makes things simple.’
Chu Sheng immediately asked, "Immortal Venerable, do you have a way to awaken Xue’s memories from her past life?"
"That’s easy to handle." Immortal Venerable Shi Xi smiled. "Just take a little sip from her."
Chu Sheng’s compound eyes lit up.
’Just one little sip.’
’That’s my specialty!’
Chu Sheng’s consciousness immediately returned to his body.
He didn’t hesitate in the slightest.
He flapped his wings and flew straight toward the White Eagle Empire’s competitor area.
The White Eagle Empire’s team leader, Rhodes, saw Chu Sheng flying over.
His expression immediately changed, and he vigilantly moved to block Xue.
"What do you think you’re doing?"
Rhodes stared coldly at Chu Sheng, unleashing his Emperor Realm aura without reservation.
The old Chief had once told Chu Sheng that Rhodes had played a part in helping Xuanyuan Changfeng ascend to the Divine Realm.
’And I’m determined to give anyone who plots against me the full funeral-service treatment.’
’But for now, I still need Rhodes to open the gate to the Divine Level Secret Realm.’
’I’ll let him live for a couple more days.’
Chu Sheng paid Rhodes no mind at all.
He activated Instant Teleportation.
Before anyone could react, he instantly appeared behind Xue.
Then, he swiftly plunged his sharp proboscis into the back of her neck.
And took a gentle sip.
"What are you doing!"
Rhodes roared in anger.
He unhesitatingly unfurled his Emperor Domain,
trying to trap Chu Sheng within it.
Chu Sheng paid Rhodes no heed whatsoever.
After jabbing Xue, he immediately withdrew his proboscis.
And after Chu Sheng withdrew his proboscis,
Xue’s blue eyes opened wider and wider.
Countless unfamiliar memory fragments flooded into her mind like a tidal wave.
Scenes from her past life flashed before her eyes, one after another.
Finally, her gaze fell upon Chu Sheng.
Her eyes were filled with familiarity and warmth.
"Brother Wen, where did our Master go?"
’Success!’
Chu Sheng extended a foreleg and patted Xue’s head with satisfaction.
"I’ll tell you all about Gu Yuexi later."
"For now, it’s time for us to go."
"Mhm." Xue nodded emphatically.
She followed behind Chu Sheng with perfect naturalness.
The utterly baffled Rhodes finally snapped out of it.
He rushed forward frantically, blocking Xue’s path.
Xue was the White Eagle Empire’s only hope of becoming the hegemon of Blue Star!
She absolutely could not be taken away by this mosquito!
"Xue! Where are you going?"
Rhodes asked urgently.
Xue frowned.
She could clearly sense that Chu Sheng despised the man in front of her.
Therefore, she also despised Rhodes.
"Move."
Xue’s voice was icy, devoid of any emotion.
Hearing the revulsion in Xue’s tone, Rhodes froze on the spot.
He couldn’t for the life of him figure it out.
Why, after just being pricked by Chu Sheng once,
Xue’s attitude would do a complete one-eighty.
Chu Sheng rested his foreleg on Xue’s shoulder.
"Don’t bother with this moron."
With that, he directly unfurled his [Boundless Wings].
He took Xue with him and used Instant Teleportation to return to the Great Xia competitor area.
This scene.
Was witnessed clearly by the representatives of every country present.
But not a single person understood what had just happened.
They stared at each other in bewilderment.
After a long moment,
a representative finally spoke in a small, uncertain voice.
"That... the new Divine Son who represented the White Eagle Empire and won the championship..."
"Seems to have... left with Great Xia’s team leader?"
"Could this Divine Son... be a Great Xia Person?"
"The champion belongs to White Eagle?!"
"But the Divine Son belongs to Great Xia?!"
