Chapter 2491: Truly Generous
Chapter 2491: Truly Generous
"Little Fairy, quickly tell me, from whom did you learn the Nine Revolutions True Fire Art?"The Qilin Beast saw Baimei Fairy remain silent and asked again.
In its view, the Nine Revolutions True Fire Art practiced by this Little Fairy was the most perfect, something only the War Emperor could teach. But the War Emperor had fallen a thousand years ago, so who taught this Little Fairy such profound Nine Revolutions True Fire Art?
The Qilin Beast was full of doubts and eager to know the answer.
Baimei Fairy shook her head and said, "I truly don’t know who that Immortal was."
With the Qilin Beast’s insight, it naturally saw that she was lying. But given its status, it was not proper to press too hard, leaving it feeling helpless.
"Little Fairy, let me be honest with you, this Emperor has some ties with the Emperor’s Palace, so I wanted to know who the Immortal teaching you Immortal Law is... How about this, you tell the other’s identity, and I will give you some cultivation resources, they’re all of Immortal Emperor level!"
The Qilin Beast knew what most appeals to Immortals and also understood what Immortal Emperor level cultivation resources meant to an Immortal King, hence it offered this to entice Baimei Fairy.
Baimei Fairy simply wouldn’t fall for it, she said with a smile, "I don’t know anything else about that Immortal, but I do remember a bit about his appearance, how about exchanging that for your cultivation resources?"
The Qilin Beast was delighted and said, "Great!"
"Bring the cultivation resources first! So you don’t go back on your word!"
Baimei Fairy reached out.
With a flash of light, a Space Immortal Ring appeared in front of her, suspended in the air.
"The cultivation resources here will last you ten years. So, do you think my sincerity is enough? Now it’s your turn to show your sincerity."
The Qilin Beast said with a smile.
Baimei Fairy held the Space Immortal Ring, her Divine Sense penetrating it, and was shocked.
The Space Immortal Ring given to her by the Qilin Beast was a hundred times larger in space than the one she currently wore on her finger, filled with various cultivation resources, all of Immortal Emperor level, indeed enough for at least ten years of cultivation needs.
"This Immortal Beast is truly generous, but just with these things, wanting to get me to talk, don’t even think about it!"
Baimei Fairy murmured in her heart and then said, "That Immortal wore white, dignified and as beautiful as jade, and his title was ’Wushuang Immortal King’... That’s all I know. Believe it or not."
Before ascending to the Immortal Realm, Baimei Fairy had heard Fang Bai say that he would go to the Immortal Realm. Before his cultivation restored to the peak of his previous life, he wouldn’t use his previous title but would call himself "Wushuang." When his cultivation reached the Immortal Venerable Realm, he would be Wushuang Immortal Venerable, and at the Immortal King Realm, he would be Wushuang Immortal King.
Baimei Fairy thought Fang Bai was much more talented than herself; now she was already at the fourth rank of Immortal King realm, so his cultivation would only be higher. Therefore, she casually mentioned "Wushuang Immortal King."
The Qilin Beast was startled and said, "Is that all?"
Baimei Fairy said, "Yes, that’s all. That Immortal is elusive; after we separated, I haven’t seen him again."
"Wushuang Immortal King... Wushuang Immortal King... Never heard of such an Immortal in the Emperor’s Palace! Could it be a disciple accepted by the War Emperor before he fell, who suddenly rose in these thousand years?"
The Qilin Beast muttered to itself a few times before suddenly letting out a gentle howl towards the sky.
Within the howl, several giant flying birds flew from afar and landed in front of the Qilin Beast.
Those flying birds, all of high rank in the Immortal Emperor Realm, were enormous in size and terrifyingly oppressive. Placed anywhere, they would be dominating Immortal Beasts. Yet, in front of the Qilin Beast, they were respectful, ready to obey orders.
"Go investigate the Immortal in the Immortal Realm titled Wushuang Immortal King, and report back to me."
The Qilin Beast said solemnly.
The flying birds let out a low cry then flapped their wings, stirring up a storm, their silhouettes swiftly cutting through the sky, disappearing in the distant horizon.
Baimei Fairy heard him mention the words "War Emperor" and her heart couldn’t help but skip a beat, pretending to be puzzled, she asked cautiously, "Who is the War Emperor you mentioned?"
The Qilin Beast said, "The War Emperor was the Emperor’s Palace Master and also a close friend of this Emperor. Unfortunately, he was harmed and fallen by some petty rogues a thousand years ago..."
As he spoke of past events, he felt a surge of anger, and the flames around him began to blaze again, inadvertently unleashing imperial power, making Baimei Fairy feel quite pressured.
"You are his close friend, knowing he was harmed by petty rogues, why didn’t you avenge him?"
Baimei Fairy asked loudly, her tone carrying some emotion.
She knew Fang Bai in his previous life was besieged by several top Immortal Emperors, causing him to reincarnate in the lower realm. She thought if it were her, possessing Emperor Realm cultivation, knowing a close friend had fallen, she would seek justice no matter what.
The Qilin Beast sighed and said, "I wish to avenge him too! But which of the eight top Immortal Emperors is easily dealt with? Moreover, after they killed the War Emperor and destroyed the Emperor’s Palace, they were at their zenith. If I stood up for the War Emperor, it might trigger them to attack collectively. In this Skyflame Forest, there are thousands of Immortal Birds and Beasts under my protection. If I were to fall, they wouldn’t fare well either!"
Baimei Fairy knew the Qilin Beast also had its concerns, but still said angrily, "A close friend has fallen, yet you remain indifferent, you... are not loyal!"
The Qilin Beast smiled wryly and said, "Indeed! That’s why I’ve been feeling guilty and ashamed for a thousand years... Fortunately, after the Emperor’s Palace was extinguished, I saved some Emperor’s Palace disciples, which counts as partially atoning for the mistake."
Baimei Fairy knew Fang Bai longed to find the progeny and disciples of the Emperor’s Palace in the Immortal Realm and gather them to rebuild the Emperor’s Palace. Her eyes brightened and she asked excitedly, "Really? Where are they?"
The Qilin Beast said, "Why are you excited, Little Fairy? You are not an Emperor’s Palace disciple."
Baimei Fairy said, "Didn’t you mention that the Wushuang Immortal King could be an Emperor’s Palace disciple? I learned his Immortal Law; that somewhat connects me to the Emperor’s Palace, right? Besides, I’ve always admired the Emperor’s Palace from a thousand years ago, hearing that some disciples survived made me excited..."
"Follow me, I’ll take you to meet them!"
The Qilin Beast heard Baimei Fairy’s feigned words and smiled, turned around, heading toward the core area of the Skyflame Forest.
Baimei Fairy had talked with the Qilin Beast for a long time and felt it probably wasn’t an enemy of the Emperor’s Palace, dissipating much of her worries, so she followed closely, flying just above the ground.
After a hundred breaths, Baimei Fairy suddenly felt the surroundings change. Originally, everywhere was filled with fire-system plants and trees, enveloped in Fire Immortal Qi, but now at a glance, it was a picturesque landscape with a much more comfortable temperature, clearly a hidden paradise.
When Baimei Fairy was in the lower realm, she had learned the Array Path from Fang Bai, so she was considered a small Array Master. She quickly noticed she was now in a magnificent large formation, though she could discern some flaws, her cultivation was inadequate to unravel it.
