Sage of Humanity-Chapter 1548 - 1546: Out of Patience
But Lu Yiye is merely a Constellation, how could he have the standing to meet Red Sky of Indeterminate, that's why he came to see me, hoping I would recommend him.
Huah Sheng thought to himself, understanding Lu Ye's intention.
Upon careful reflection, in contrast to seeking a pathway for Constellation solely for his own domain, if Lu Yiye could truly establish a collaboration with Indeterminate, the prospects should be far better.
"Indeed, I wish to meet Red Sky of Indeterminate. Might I beseech Senior for an introduction?"
After considering momentarily, Huah Sheng nodded, "That is not an issue, and I believe Indeterminate will be very interested. Young friend, you should prepare for now, and join me tomorrow on the journey to Indeterminate!"
"Thank you, Senior."
A moment later, Lu Ye left the grand hall together with Duu Lang, who was evidently fascinated by All Phenomena Galaxy, asking numerous questions about it. Lu Ye casually mentioned some things, leaving Duu Lang full of longing. Yet without witnessing it directly, it's truly difficult to imagine the grand magnificence of All Phenomena Ocean, the prosperity of each Spirit Island, and the countless cultivators bustling around.
After escorting Lu Ye back, Duu Lang reluctantly departed.
Returning to his residence, the little girl was still asleep, while Lih Shang sat quietly beside her, looking after her.
Lu Ye sorted through his thoughts; the intention of taking people from Jade Conch to All Phenomena Ocean is no easy task, with Indeterminate only being the first hurdle. When returning to Nine Provinces, things with Jade Conch World need handling as well. In any case, Jade Conch Galaxy has no noteworthy Moon Jade to offer, Nine Provinces can't be relied on in the short term, and Qingli Dao World's Wu Zhuo obviously can't leave either, so the hope rests on sending people from Jade Conch World.
Even if the matters with Jade Conch are settled, upon returning, negotiating while entering Changyun will be necessary.
Success comes after difficulty!
"Shall we give her a name?" Lih Shang suddenly spoke.
Lu Ye was interrupted from his thoughts and looked up at her.
Lih Shang said, "This little girl is incoherent, probably doesn't even know her own name. She ought to have a name."
"What name do you want to give her?" asked Lu Ye.
Lih Shang thought for a moment, "Let's call her Yaya."
Lu Ye's eye twitched, finding women quite peculiar. Despite knowing that she couldn't truly be a small child, she was treated as one throughout the care over these past six months.
"As you like!" Lu Ye had no objections.
Yaya slept for another while, finally woke up, and upon seeing Lih Shang, gleefully ran to her and embraced. After a short while, she came to sit in Lu Ye's lap, leisurely calling out "Papa, Mama" endlessly.
Lu Ye, being worn out, had no time to hone cultivation in the azure hall, resorting only to deriving spirit patterns.
Night passed without words, the next day, Lih Shang slipped into Lu Ye's Divine Sea, as Lu Ye stepped through the door to meet Huah Sheng and proceed to Indeterminate.
After taking a few steps, he turned to Yaya, "Come with me."
This trip to Indeterminate likely wouldn't return to Red Sky, so Yaya had to be brought along.
Yaya didn't move but raised her arms like lotus roots, chirping, "Papa, carry me!"
Lu Ye's eye twitched again, silently staring at her.
Yaya maintained her pose, seemingly noticing Lu Ye's resistance, her pout forming, eyes misting over.
Lu Ye cautioned internally, "This isn't a child, this isn't a child!"
She only appears as one; don't be deceived by her pitiful and adorable appearance!
After a moment, before Yaya could start crying, Lu Ye hurried forward and picked her up.
Feeling a bit exhausted, wondering what misdeed he committed, randomly saving someone, only to end up with a daughter...
Yaya, thrilled, initially behaved but soon squirmed joyfully in his embrace, occasionally pinching his face or nose, resembling a monkey as she flipped around him, sometimes perched on his shoulder, sometimes seated in his arm.
Lu Ye was worn to the point of having no temper left.
Shortly thereafter, Lu Ye arrived at the rendezvous point where Huah Sheng awaited alone; Duu Lang wouldn't be joining on this journey.
Seeing a small girl riding on Lu Ye's shoulder, Huah Sheng was slightly surprised, "Young friend, this little girl is..."
Before Lu Ye could respond, Yaya spoke first, "He's my papa, the best papa in the world!"
Lu Ye chuckled, unsure what to say, knowing that if he dared utter a 'no', Yaya would burst out crying.
Huah Sheng smiled kindly, looked Yaya up and down, and praised, "Young friend is impressive, even a child commands such affection." Saying this, he casually waved his hand, and a treasure resembling a headband appeared in his palm: "Our first meeting, how about I give you a little gift?"
Yaya glanced at the headband in Huah Sheng's hand, then showed a disdainful expression, looked away, and softly said, "Trash!"
The expression on Huah Sheng's face immediately froze.
Although it's a gift for a child, since he's someone from Moon Jade, he would naturally not be stingy. This headband is at least a spirit treasure-level exotic treasure, how could it be trash? And to be directly judged by a child like this... 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮
Lu Ye also felt a bit embarrassed; when Yaya was with him and Lih Shang, she appeared extremely innocent, just like an ignorant child. Who would have thought she'd say something so shocking at this moment.
He quickly grabbed Yaya down from his shoulder, holding her by the collar with one hand, slapped her on the buttocks: "What nonsense are you saying, quickly apologize to Grandpa!"
Yaya covered her hands behind her, being lifted by Lu Ye with one hand, looking extremely pitiful, with a face full of grievance as she gazed at Huah Sheng: "Grandpa, I was wrong!"
Lu Ye was also embarrassed: "Please pardon her, Senior, this child has some problems, it's my fault for not teaching her well." He couldn't explain much more.
Finding her amusing, Huah Sheng laughed heartily: "It's fine, it's fine. Kids are sometimes shocking with their words, children say the darnedest things, children say the darnedest things!"
He no longer mentioned giving a gift, retrieved the headband, summoned a starboat, and after Lu Ye brought Yaya aboard, they soared into the skies.
If traveling from Red Sky to the Indeterminate by Lu Ye's speed, it would probably take about half a month, but Huah Sheng was noticeably faster, expectedly needing less than ten days.
Along the way, Yaya was completely restless, running back and forth on the starboat, looking at this and that. Occasionally when she saw something magnificent in the stellar space, she would pull Lu Ye to share it with him.
Lu Ye got a headache, overwhelmed by how difficult it is to raise children.
After a long while, Yaya finally got tired of playing, then ran to Lu Ye's side, sat in his lap, and fell asleep in a comfortable position.
A day later, while Lu Ye was refining spirit jade in cultivation, he distinctly felt the starboat's speed slow down, raised his eyes and saw a stream of light approaching rapidly.
Huah Sheng spoke, "It's an Indeterminate starboat, seems to be heading to Red Sky, though I'm not sure what's going on, young friend please wait a moment."
Lu Ye nodded slightly.
Soon, the starboat came to the front, Huah Sheng looked intently, recognized someone inside, and clasped his fists: "So it's Fellow Daoist Kang, are you heading to Red Sky?"
The middle-aged man on the starboat, with a serious expression, looked over upon hearing these words. This was Fellow Daoist Kang referred to by Huah Sheng, also a Moon Jade Late Stage, but unlike the aged, weak-blood Qi Moon Jade Late Stage like Huah Sheng, Kang Cheng was in his prime. Even within the Indeterminate World, his position was not low, he was hopeful to become a Sun Blaze powerhouse.
Kang Cheng stood with his hands behind his back, said indifferently: "I'm indeed heading to Red Sky."
Huah Sheng was surprised: "What urgent matter could Fellow Daoist have?"
Under normal circumstances, Moon Jade cultivators from Indeterminate wouldn't go to a place like Red Sky, so Huah Sheng couldn't figure out what Kang Cheng was doing. Since they happened to meet halfway, it was natural to inquire.
While the two were talking, Lu Ye was also looking over there, though his gaze wasn't on Kang Cheng, but rather on a young man beside him.
That man was Xu Dingyang!
Lu Ye vaguely felt that the other party was probably coming for him, having injured Xu Dingyang and others in the desolate star region but not being able to finish them off, it seems trouble truly is coming as Lih Shang said.
Lu Ye did not expect Xu Dingyang to be so impatient. Judging by the time, he should have just returned to the Indeterminate World, yet he brought a Moon Jade Late Stage to head straight to Indeterminate.
When their eyes met, there was an obvious cold glint in Xu Dingyang's eyes.
On that starboat, Kang Cheng's glance fell on Lu Ye, saying indifferently: "It's not a major matter, I just heard that cultivators from other star systems are invading this star system, and I'm somewhat uneasy, so I came to take a look myself."
Huah Sheng was surprised: "Invasion? Where did this come from?"
Lu Ye was indeed an outsider cultivator, but a Constellation just passing through couldn't be considered an invasion.
Huah Sheng was somewhat familiar with Kang Cheng's personality, a very proud person. Even if there was some past issue between Lu Ye and Xu Dingyang, it shouldn't warrant such a big fuss, it's inappropriate for seniors to meddle in the younger generation's affairs. Thus, Huah Sheng was perplexed, what exactly was Kang Cheng's intent? Surely he couldn't be standing up for Xu Dingyang?
The truth is, Kang Cheng indeed came personally for Lu Ye, but not in the way Huah Sheng thought, to stand up for Xu Dingyang.
His philosophy coincided with Huah Sheng's, matters among juniors should be resolved by juniors themselves, seniors intervening just makes the juniors look incompetent.
It's just that upon hearing some things about Lu Ye from Xu Dingyang, Kang Cheng realized Lu Ye was talented and started having some thoughts.
This generation of the Indeterminate World was quite decent, yet lacked standout talents. Duu Lang had Luo Shenzhi, overshadowing all Constellations, Xu Dingyang was already very good, yet still dimmed in comparison to Luo Shenzhi.
If he could recruit Lu Ye to stay and serve the domain, it might change this situation.
A Constellation from some wandering star system, Kang Cheng was confident in recruiting. As for the external invasion he mentioned, it was just an excuse, allowing him to act personally and display Indeterminate's might.
