Sage of Humanity-Chapter 1626 - 1624: Watching Him Build His Tower

Unparalleled Island was lost, and the hardest thing Tang Jun had to face was Lu Ye. Now seeing that Lu Ye seemed unconcerned about the loss of Unparalleled Island, Tang Jun suddenly felt much relieved.

His heart secretly shocked, Li Taibai's temperament was truly remarkable. One must know that it was a top-class Spirit Island that even Sun Blaze coveted, yet it was forcibly occupied by someone, and he didn't seem to care at all. Such temperament was not something a young person like him could possess.

In comparison, he, the old man, seemed more like a reckless youngster.

Lu Ye stood up and stretched lazily, then spoke: "So let's go? I doubt that you'd want to spend your twilight years here, would you?"

Cheling World wouldn't let them stay here forever. The fact that they could come to Cheling World to recuperate was entirely thanks to Chu Shen. Now that Tang Jun and the others' injuries had mostly healed, even if Lu Ye hadn't come, they wouldn't stay here for long.

Tang Jun packed up his fishing rod, patted his backside: "Let's go!"

Chu Shen tried to persuade: "Big brother, why not stay a while longer? I haven't had the chance to properly welcome you yet."

Rare was the occasion for his big brother to visit; he couldn't let it pass without some gesture.

Lu Ye shook his head: "Hundreds from the Three Worlds are waiting in All Phenomena Ocean with no place to settle. I must return to tend to them. I'll come back if there's another opportunity."

Upon hearing this, Chu Shen no longer insisted, nodding: "Then big brother, you must visit often! Let me see you off."

Soon, several figures soared into the sky, heading straight beyond the domain.

Outside Cheling World, Chu Shen stopped in his tracks, looking a bit reluctant: "Big brother, I'll see you off until here."

Lu Ye looked at him: "Cultivate well, we will reunite someday."

Chu Shen clenched his fist, his expression steadfast: "Big brother rest assured, I will surely cultivate well. Whatever we lost this time, I will personally retrieve it and return it to big brother!"

He used to pride himself on his outstanding aptitude, relying on Jiu Yan as his backing, and only sought to live carefreely. Otherwise, he wouldn't have run away from home several times. But after the Unparalleled Island incident, Chu Shen realized that even if his mother was Sun Blaze, relying on others was never as good as relying on his own strength.

After withdrawing from Unparalleled Island and returning to Cheling World, he developed an unprecedented desire to become stronger!

Lu Ye patted his shoulder: "Some things need not be forced; just be true to yourself. As the saying goes..." He paused in thought, then turned to look towards the direction of All Phenomena Ocean: "Just watch him build the tall tower, watch him host the guests, and see how the tower crumbles over time!"

Chu Shen was a bit confused.

Lu Ye didn't explain further, just said: "Unparalleled Island in your hands, versus someone else's hands, is not necessarily the same thing! Of course, we should remember this grudge, and seize the opportunity for revenge one day."

Unparalleled Island was lost, let it be lost. Outsiders perceive it as a top-class Spirit Island, but only Lu Ye truly understands its real condition. As long as he takes the Small Constellation Palace from beneath Unparalleled Island, it won't be long before Unparalleled Island will revert to its original state.

After all, fundamentally, Unparalleled Island is just a barren island, not a Spirit Island in the true sense. Without the Small Constellation Palace's effect of reversing the seawater, it shouldn't last long.

However, the profits Unparalleled Island has generated in recent years, Lu Ye cannot ignore, as after all, it's sixty million spirit jade, and he intends to claim half of it.

Lu Ye and the others left, while Chu Shen stood and watched until their figures vanished from view. Only then did he resolve, turning back to Cheling World.

He must quickly become stronger, never again experiencing such humiliation and helplessness!

In the stellar space, the starboat moved forward.

Lu Ye turned to the few ladies and asked: "What plans do you have for the future, fellow sisters?"

Previously, when Lu Ye transformed into Fa Wuzun, the few ladies had interacted with him, fighting alongside him in the Constellation Palace. After the Constellation Palace closed, Chu Shen found them, forming them into a squad to advance and retreat together.

Now Chu Shen remained in Cheling World to cultivate, but they couldn't stay here and had to leave with Lu Ye.

So Lu Ye had to ask about their plans. If they were willing to continue following him, Lu Ye wouldn't mind keeping them, as they had already proven their courage and loyalty during the battle for Unparalleled Island.

Of course, if they had other thoughts, Lu Ye wouldn't hinder them.

The ladies exchanged glances, clearly they had already made their decision. Cai Xing spoke: "We wish to follow you, senior brother, and hope you will take us in!"

Though they all had risen to Constellation Mid-Stage, they hailed from minor domains. Such cultivation, such background, held little competitive power across All Phenomena Ocean. Even their beautiful appearance didn't hold much attraction for true cultivators.

Back in the day, if Chu Shen hadn't found and integrated them into a team, allowing them to enjoy years of prosperity on Unparalleled Island, they wouldn't have risen to Constellation Mid-Stage so quickly.

Now Unparalleled Island is gone, Chu Shen remains in Cheling World, besides relying on Lu Ye, they truly have nowhere else to go; they certainly couldn't wander aimlessly on All Phenomena Ocean.

Moreover, they weren't fools. Over the years, through some clues, especially Chu Shen's attitude and references to Lu Ye, the ladies faintly sensed that Lu Ye might just be the legendary Fa Wuzun!

Towards Fa Wuzun, they held great respect, providing them a reason to follow.

Perhaps there was an exception… Little Dumb might not have noticed that Lu Ye is Fa Wuzun; she always appeared somewhat simple-minded.

Lu Ye said: "If that's the case, then you shall follow me."

Anyway, there were hundreds of cultivators from the Three Worlds, a few extra wouldn't be too much. Moreover, they were somewhat familiar with Old Tang, so when the time comes for them to mingle with the cultivators from the Three Worlds, there shouldn't be too much foreignness.

Moreover, the Three Worlds cultivators are new arrivals, and people like Cai Xing are undoubtedly more familiar with the All Phenomena Ocean. With their help, the Three Worlds cultivators can integrate into the larger environment of the All Phenomena Ocean more quickly.

After all, Old Tang is Moon Jade, so it's impossible for him to worry about everything.

As they were speaking, a streak of light suddenly shot out from the side, heading straight for the starboat.

Lu Ye sensed a familiar aura, frowned, and looked in that direction, wondering what this woman was up to.

The streak of light quickly approached, and just as it was about to collide with Lu Ye, he dodged to the side and swung a hand chop down.

The visitor's eyes flashed with a hint of anger. She had clearly shown herself to be severely injured, yet Li Taibai this guy was so insensitive, taking the opportunity to strike her heavily; she almost couldn't resist counterattacking.

Fortunately, at the crucial moment, she forcibly suppressed the thought in her heart, allowing Lu Ye's hand chop to hit her waist.

A miserable scream rang out, and the starboat suddenly had a new passenger, who was coughing up blood.

Little Crooked exclaimed, "Specter Sister, what happened to you?"

Immediately bending down to help her up.

Specter lay with a pale face in Little Crooked's arms, her soft heroism slightly distorted by her head, she spat another mouthful of blood, and looked pitifully at Lu Ye: "Li Taibai... I'm not going to make it!"

Lu Ye focused on her, frowning secretly.

It's certain that Specter's injuries are fake because there's no way things are so coincidental that she'd encounter them right after leaving Cheling World, yet Lu Ye looked her over again and again and couldn't detect any signs of disguise.

The injuries seemed just like real ones! Moreover... what in the world is this woman trying to do?

He spoke indifferently, "There's a desolate planet over there, I'll dig a grave for you. Is there anything valuable you'd like to bring out first to avoid wasting it?"

Little Dumb and the others were dumbfounded.

Specter felt that Li Taibai was simply heartless, truly the most malicious person in the world. Forcibly suppressing her anger, she gasped weakly, "I have nothing, pure and clean. Li Taibai, after I die, help me pass a message to Bai Lu… tell her I can't see her anymore."

Upon mentioning Bai Lu, Lu Ye suddenly realized what she was waiting for!

Bai Lu and she are truly inseparable sisters; if she dies, Bai Lu would have no good fate – surely following her in death.

Previously, Specter asked Lu Ye to send her to Merfolk Territory, but Lu Ye ignored her, and then Specter left. Lu Ye was a bit surprised at the time; since when was Specter so agreeable?

Now it seems Specter isn't agreeable, she has other plans.

This woman is obviously using this method to force Lu Ye, telling him that if she dies, Bai Lu won't survive either.

Lu Ye lowered his gaze slightly, squinting at Specter, who helplessly and pitifully looked back, the light in her eyes seemed to be dimming, as if it might go out any moment.

Little Crooked, who was holding her, was crying, tears streaming down, pleading with Lu Ye, "Brother, save Sister Specter!"

The other girls also looked sad; although they hadn't interacted much with Specter, they had worked together on Unparalleled Island, and now seeing Specter severely injured for unknown reasons, about to die, each felt bitter in their hearts.

Of course, Lu Ye knew Specter wouldn't die.

But thinking carefully, if he doesn't send her to Merfolk Territory, in case she does something reckless outside, it would still involve Bai Lu.

Sending her to Merfolk Territory at least ensures her safety!

"Promise me, Li Taibai, it's my last wish, do you really want to refuse such a small request?" Specter's voice quivered, filled with the accusation of blood and tears.

Little Crooked and the others didn't know who Bai Lu was, but at this moment felt that Bai Lu must be the most important person to Specter, and Lu Ye also knew her.

All looked at Lu Ye expectantly, hoping he'd agree.

Lu Ye said coldly, "You can say it yourself, I won't agree to this!"

Little Crooked and the others were extremely disappointed.

But upon hearing this, Specter wiped her mouth, gleefully standing up from Little Crooked's arms, excitedly saying, "Alright, alright, when are we going?"

The group of women looked dumbfounded, even Old Tang's eye twitched for a moment.

Little Crooked hesitated, "Specter Sister, you're alright?"

Specter breezily said, "I don't know why… after hearing Li Taibai's words, my injuries suddenly healed."

"You come with me!" Lu Ye was too lazy to listen to her nonsense, reached out to grab her neck, and lifted her out of the starboat.

At the same time, transmitted audio to Tang Jun: "Old Tang, you take them to the All Phenomena Ocean first, I'll catch up with you later."
