80 Years Of Signing-In At The Cold Palace, I Am Unrivalled

Chapter 209 - Miss Hongs Intentions



Chapter 209: Miss Hong’s Intentions

A man with a noble-looking temperament was dressed in rough hemp clothes. He checked the water source in the fields and looked at the rice growing in the fields. A smile of satisfaction was on his face.

In the oasis not far away, a dignified-looking man was herding a large group of sheep.

He was letting them have their breakfast.

He was supposed to be the future Celestial Emperor, but now he was herding sheep.

The scene looked a little strange if one knew the dignified man’s background.

Furthermore, in the ancient city of the oasis, some people opened food stalls while others opened wine shops. Like mortals, they were busy living their daily lives.

Miss Hong stuttered. “Are they all—are they all people from inside the Mountain Sea Realm?”

Lin Jiufeng nodded and replied, “Yes. Any of them can easily tip the balance of this world.”

“But what are they doing?” Miss Hong asked in horror.

“As you can see, they are experiencing life,” Lin Jiufeng said calmly.

“Experiencing life?” Miss Hong felt that either she was muddled or these experts were dumb.

Would cultivators at the King Realm and above even relax their hearts to experience life as a mortal?

She couldn’t help but look at Lin Jiufeng.

Lin Jiufeng said innocently, “I’m also experiencing life as a mortal.”

Miss Hong looked at the vegetable gardens and poultry around the courtyard.

She then stared at him quizzically.

“Is this the reason why you are so strong?” Miss Hong asked.

One could become stronger by experiencing life?

Should she try it too?

Lin Jiufeng smiled.

“All right, back to the topic. Why have you returned here this time?”

The topic of experiencing life should end here for now.

After all, if Lin Jiufeng didn’t suppress these powerhouses and stopped them from leaving, which of them would choose to relax their hearts and experience life as a mortal?

“I’m here to see if the seniors of my Heavenly Dao Sect have come out,” Miss Hong replied.

Lin Jiufeng directly shook his head. “Everyone who has come out so far has told me their names. They aren’t from the Heavenly Dao Sect.”

Miss Hong couldn’t hide her disappointment.

She looked at the Mountain Sea Door and said, “I’ll wait here for a few days and see if any seniors of my Heavenly Dao Sect will come out.”

“Why are you so persistent in waiting for them to come out? Why are you so anxious?”

Lin Jiufeng curiously asked.

“Well, that’s because this world doesn’t only have one door like this. There are also many other doors. You are blocking the citizens of the Mountain Sea Realm, but when the other hidden worlds appear, who can block their citizens from coming out prematurely then?”

Miss Hong explained.

“You discovered other worlds?” Lin Jiufeng raised his brows.

“I found some clues.” Miss Hong nodded.

“Take a seat. Tell me more about it in detail.”

Lin Jiufeng immediately invited Miss Hong to sit down.

This was a pleasant surprise. Every hidden world was a treasure trove for Lin Jiufeng.

He would definitely be able to sign in at those places.

The only probable difference was the quality of rewards those places would produce. After all, it seemed to be dependent on the strength of the powerhouses inside those hidden worlds.

“I only discovered some clues. As you know, the people of the Heavenly Dao Sect are very sensitive to the fluctuations of the world. I sensed the fluctuation of a hidden world in the Hundred Thousand Mountains,” Miss Hong said.

“Hundred Thousand Mountains, that’s within the territory of the monster race!”

Lin Jiufeng exclaimed in surprise.

“Yes, it’s within the territory of the monster race. I also went to explore there, but I didn’t find anything. However, the fluctuations I sensed are definitely real.” Miss Hong explained.

“In other words—in the Hundred Thousand Mountains—there is a hidden world that might very well belong to the ancestors of the monster race.” Lin Jiufeng guessed.

Miss Hong nodded. “That’s right! Of course, they won’t reveal themselves for the time being, but I have to be careful. Sadly, I need the seniors of my Heavenly Dao Sect. They are the ones capable enough to seal hidden worlds.”

“I understand. Other than that, is everything okay in the outside world?” Lin Jiufeng asked.

“Everything is fine. There are many powerhouses, that’s true, but they are restrained in their actions. There are no major problems for now. The people of the world are living and working in peace. The Yuhua God Dynasty is still today’s overlord,” Miss Hong replied.

“I’m relieved. It seems that I can keep guard on this Mountain Sea Door here in peace. There’s no need for me to worry about anything else,” Lin Jiufeng was both overjoyed and satisfied.

As long as Emperor De was fine, the Yuhua God Dynasty would be fine.

If the Yuhua God Dynasty was fine, Lin Jiufeng wouldn’t have to go out and fix its troubles.

As for the world fluctuations in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, that was far less important to Lin Jiufeng than this place. He could sign in every day here, but there were only fluctuations in the Hundred Thousand Mountains.

The hidden world there hadn’t appeared just yet.

After they were done talking about the Hundred Thousand Mountains, Miss Hong couldn’t suppress her curiosity anymore as she asked, “By the way, just how exactly strong you are today?”

It was only at this moment that she came to her senses.

The powerhouses were living the lives of ordinary people here.

The only reason why this was happening was that Lin Jiufeng singlehandedly suppressed them.

Lin Jiufeng smiled and said, “I’m just slightly stronger than them.”

Just slightly stronger?

Miss Hong didn’t believe it at all, but she didn’t ask anymore.

Instead, she looked around and sighed.

“The oasis here was originally the eye of a storm, entangled with various factions that seek to control the precious resources here, which is water. But now, because of you, it has become a utopia. A utopia where every citizen lives freely and well.”

Lin Jiufeng couldn’t help but chuckle at her remark.

“Yes, but I bet if they had a choice, they definitely wouldn’t live a quiet life here like me.”

Miss Hong also smiled. “I will stay here for a few days and wait for someone from my Heavenly Dao Sect to appear. If no one from my sect appears, I will make other plans.”

“Up to you. You can stay anywhere in the city. But only one person will emerge every day from the Mountain Sea Door. I don’t think you have much hope if you’re only going to stay here for a few days.” Lin Jiufeng shook his head.

Miss Hong smiled and didn’t say anything else.

She entered the city and chose the courtyard that originally belonged to the Heavenly Dao Sect.

She stayed for seven days.

In these seven days, Miss Hong’s horizons were broadened.

Every citizen in the ancient city was countless times stronger than her.

But each of them busied themselves with menial work as they lived peaceful and simple lives like the mortals in the outside world.

The opening of the Mountain Sea Door never failed to surprise Miss Hong. The way Lin Jiufeng neatly defeated every cultivator that emerged from its doors astounded her every time.

Lin Jiufeng defeated those cultivators without even appearing in person.

The people who came out of the Mountain Sea Realm were all countless times stronger than her.

Miss Hong felt that she was as insignificant as an ant when standing in front of them.

But in front of Lin Jiufeng, they were the ones that were insignificant as ants.

This comparison made Miss Hong bitterly smile.

She waited for a full seven days.

Seven people appeared in seven days, but none of them were seniors of the Heavenly Dao Sect.

Miss Hong was helpless.

She could only choose to temporarily leave.

She still had many things to do after all. She had to fulfill the promise the members of the Heavenly Dao Sect made to the Heavenly Dao. Even if she was alone right now, she had to keep on fulfilling this promise.

Before leaving, Miss Hong wrote a letter and passed it to Lin Jiufeng.

“When the seniors of my Heavenly Dao Sect appear, show this letter to them. They will know what happened. I shall take my leave first.” Miss Hong handed the letter to Lin Jiufeng and turned around to leave.

She walked away amidst the violent yellow soil.

Under the clear and cloudless sky, she left.

Lin Jiufeng held the envelope and casually put it away.

He had no interest in opening it. He then continued to spend every day in peace.

Miss Hong’s arrival didn’t cause any waves.

Everyone’s days passed peacefully as usual.

Lin Jiufeng continued to sign in quietly.

He became stronger in peace.

Three years passed in a flash.
