Chapter 201: 212

The two envoys of Starry Ocean Pavilion came and left quickly, only leaving Gu Nan with a seal.

"It doesn’t look like anything special." Gu Nan tossed this badge up and down a few times. It was engraved with some strange patterns, but there was no energy fluctuation from it at all.

Red Tail said from beside him, "It’s said that after Starry Ocean Pavilion activates the seal, it will have some wondrous functions like ultra-long distance communication."

"Oh. Then why didn't that person say so earlier? Really now," Gu Nan casually complained.

Red Tail's expression darkened slightly. ‘He originally planned to reveal that later as a bargaining chip, but who imagined that you’d just hack at him out of the blue…’

But she only dared to say this in her head.

Gu Nan played with the seal for a while and felt it was boring, so he put it away again.

"Are there any progress on recent matters?" Gu Nan asked again.

He was currently using Red Tail as a secretary. The matters he cared about had all been given to her to sort out before showing them to him, while Lan Si was his general representative for the Dao Lords below.

In the future, this part of the work might be done by Lan Si instead, but right now this "Chairman Lan" was already too busy dealing with her own affairs.

"There’s still no news regarding those two. I’ve already sent more people to keep an eye out on the ruins of the Heavenly Palace and on Luo Xin.”

What the Luo siblings would care about was nothing more than the Heavenly Palace and their daughter—Red Tail knew this without Gu Nan having to say anything.

"Regarding Immortal Demon World, our people are already starting to settle in and have already learned of the overall situation in that world," Red Tail reported as she handed a document to Gu Nan.

One or two sentences wouldn’t clearly convey the overall situation of a plane; only written documents could do it.

There were roughly three major forces vying for supremacy in today's Immortal Demon World.

There were the native forces located in the western part of the continent. Ever since the flames of war ignited two years ago, Azure Dragon Hall’s flag was once again raised high in order to resist the invaders.

In the east, one country and one sect were the two strongest powers, working together to oppose the powerful enemy in the west.

"The Gu family is probably supporting that country. As for this sect that rose inexplicably…" Gu Nan rubbed his chin. "If other reincarnators hadn't discovered this plane yet, then the Lu family likely stepped in to support that sect."

When Gu Nan was in Heavenly Enterprise Star, he didn’t deliberately hide the existence of Immortal Demon World and instead handed the monitoring task directly to Lu Zhanyu.

However, the people and resources in Immortal Demon World no longer held much value for the current Gu Nan. He now had plenty of personal dungeons, so he had no shortage of materials with which to establish his Divine Kingdom.

Rather, he was fascinated by the strange half-soul exchange setting of the world’s origin.

"Have you ever seen anything like this plane’s ‘half-life' mode before?"

Red Tail shook her head. "This is the first time White Mist has seen such a plane… By the way, My Lord, we also discovered that the power of destiny is particularly active in Immortal Demon World."

"The power of destiny is active?" Gu Nan frowned slightly and asked, "What does this mean?"

"It means that this place is an exceptional harvesting ground for the force of destiny." Excitement appeared in Red Tail’s eyes.

……

Inside Immortal Demon World.

A young girl dressed in simple yet noble clothes slowly walked into the Great Yan Dynasty’s inner palace. The ruler of the Yan Dynasty, who was originally sitting high above everyone else, jumped up from the throne immediately.

King Yan quickly ran to the girl's side and smiled ingratiatingly. "Eldest Miss…"

However, the girl just waved her hand and casually said, "I can't stay here for long, so hurry up if you have something to say."

This girl was precisely Gu Nian, someone whom Gu Nan hadn’t seen for a long time. The current her was already a Prodigious Realm Infinitesimal Stage cultivator, so it was hard for her to reincarnate and stay in a plane for too long. This was also the reincarnators’ greatest weakness.

In fact, neither the country nor the sect on the east lacked high-end battle power, but there were too few native experts.

A force composed entirely of reincarnators was fine if used as a sharp blade as the vanguard, but to have only reincarnators support a prolonged war was much less likely.

Fortunately, Immortal Demon World was rich in resources. Even if they didn’t unify the world, they still wouldn’t make a loss from reincarnating here. Otherwise, the Gu family would’ve lost the ability to maintain their current stronghold a long time ago.

King Yan didn’t dare to complain when he saw Gu Nian’s expression and hurriedly replied, "It’s actually not very serious. It’s just that recently, some talented geniuses have appeared inside this country…"

"Isn’t that a good thing?" Gu Nian raised her eyebrows.

"Yes… but these genius youths all used to be good-for-nothings who then counterattacked." King Yan lowered his voice, “And it’s rumored that there are also many such cases in the west and inside Celestial Fortune Sect too."

Gu Nian's brows wrinkled. Genius youths were quite normal, and good-for-nothings counterattacking also wasn’t surprising, but a lot of these people suddenly appearing all over the world wasn’t normal.

"Give me all of these people's information." She ordered, but her expression looked a little dark.

"Is it a mutation inside the plane, or is some mastermind manipulating everything from behind the scenes?" Looking up at the sky, Gu Nian felt the rare sensation of not knowing what course to take.

……

The same scene happened in two other places in Immortal Demon World. It’s just that the protagonists became Yan Xiaoxiao and Lu Zhanyu.

Gu Nan guessed one thing wrong. It wasn’t the Lu family that actually got involved in Immortal Demon World, but Lu Zhanyu alone.

In this short period of time, she had already stepped into Prodigious Realm, and even her stage had caught up to Gu Nian—she was also at Infinitesimal Stage right now.

However, considering the qualities of her veteran reincarnator status, it wasn’t surprising that she could achieve this much—after all, reincarnators had the ability to exploit loopholes in the law of time.

"There's nothing strange about it," she said coldly to Celestial Fortune Sect’s Sect Master, an elder she selected herself. "It’s nothing more than some mischief caused by destiny."

"Order everyone to postpone all plans for the time being." Lu Zhanyu's face turned even colder. "It’ll be fine if this is a mutation originating from this plane, but if it's man-made… I'm afraid this plane has caught a powerful figure’s attention."

On the other hand, in the western part of the continent, Yan Xiaoxiao now had a more dignified temperament after fighting for many years, which gave people great pressure when talking to her.

Sitting on the throne of Azure Dragon Hall, she didn't have much reaction to the good-for-nothings’ counterattacks.

Yan Xiaoxiao didn’t understand destiny, nor did she understand anything about plane mutations. She simply didn’t care.

"A higher number of talented disciples will naturally be better for us. " She told her subordinates, "As long as they’re willing, they can take Azure Dragon Hall’s exam as soon as possible. We will not refuse anyone."

"Yes, Hall Master."

Hundreds of people beneath the throne bowed simultaneously in response to her order. This was the might of the number one Azure Dragon Hall.

Just as the three sides were reacting differently to the appearance of children of destiny, a figure was quietly standing on top of Immortal Demon World, overlooking all this.

Her expression looked wooden, and the expression on her face seemed to remain unchanged for thousands of years.

"A strange world." She murmured to herself, "Exchange half of the reincarnator’s soul? It’s indeed similar to that one’s half and half body. So then, what exactly do you want to do, Gu Nan?"

She looked up, as if she could see a mysterious smile on Gu Nan’s face in the endless sky.

The sunlight fell on her just like passing through the air. There was no shadow on the ground.
