Sage of Humanity-Chapter 688 - 686 I’m a Sister too

What's happening? Lu Ye was bewildered.

He could understand why Ye Liuli appeared this way; she had just experienced a drastic change, with her family destroyed and kin perished. The impact on the young mistress of Tyrannical Saber Villa must have been immense.

But previously, the two girls had seemed almost antagonistic towards each other. How had they become so much closer now?

Realizing that Lu Ye had awakened, Ye Liuli wiped her eyes and stood up, calling out, "Brother Ye Liu."

Lu Ye nodded slightly.

"Brother Ye Liu, what should we do now?" Ye Liuli asked.

Though they had temporarily escaped danger, the crisis was far from over. They could be pursued and attacked at any moment, and with her lack of experience, she truly did not know what to do.

After some thought, Lu Ye said, "Take out the things we've collected before."

Yiyi and Ye Liuli quickly took out several storage sacks, and Lu Ye set about opening the restriction locks on the storage sacks, taking out the items one by one.

"This is..." Ye Liuli suddenly picked up an item that resembled a token, examined it for a moment, and said through clenched teeth, "This is an identity token from the God's Will Sect."

There were not just one but three such identity tokens, which meant that at least three of the five people who pursued them belonged to the God's Will Sect.

The God's Will Sect and Tyrannical Saber Villa, both located in Fengzhou and not too far apart, had always had a strained relationship.

The root cause was that the current Sect Leader of God's Will Sect had suffered a significant defeat at the hands of Ye Ying when he was younger.

The origins of the grudges between the previous generation were now obscure, but the longstanding animosity had persisted to this day.

In the information Lu Ye had obtained, there had been various skirmishes between Tyrannical Saber Villa and God's Will Sect.

However, the power dynamics in the Soaring Dragon World were different than in the Nine Provinces; such frictions were quite normal.

In the Nine Provinces, the Haotian Alliance and Ten Thousand Demons Ridge maintained clearly defined camps, opposing each other for thousands of years. Normally, sects within the same alliance would support each other in critical moments, harboring no significant grudges.

In contrast, the Soaring Dragon World was a place where countless sect and family powers stood, and the situation was much more complex than in the Nine Provinces.

There was no clear alliance affiliation here; the web of relationships was entangled with feuds and alliances, and within the networks of friendly powers, there could be many who were enemies of each other.

With existing grievances between Tyrannical Saber Villa and God's Will Sect, the former's fall from grace and the latter's kicking them while they were down was all too standard.

But Lu Ye remembered the physique cultivator had said something about taking money to rid others of disasters, which implied they were not acting solely out of their own feud.

Someone had hired them.

Who could it be?

Although Lu Ye had arrived here with the imposed identity of Master Ye Liu and had gained a general understanding of the Soaring Dragon World, he had no access to more specific intelligence.

And then there was that Ye Ying, whose death was also a mystery.

The Soaring Dragon World was somewhat similar to the Ten Thousand Beasts Domain he'd visited previously, yet there were differences.

The similarity was that the highest achievement for cultivators in both worlds was the Cloud River Realm, with no cultivator surpassing this realm in either world.

The difference was, in the Ten Thousand Beasts Domain, cultivators were limited by the laws of heaven and earth—they could only cultivate up to the Cloud River Realm, with no further path to pursue.

This might have to do with the overall environment of the world. While there was an abundance of spirit force, the rules of heaven and earth could not accommodate it, thus preventing cultivators from exploring further paths.

It was like the Spirit Stream battlefield could not contain cultivators above the Spirit Stream Realm.

Yet it wasn't always like this in the Soaring Dragon World.

According to the information Lu Ye obtained, the Soaring Dragon World had cultivators of the Divine Sea Realm long ago.

However, since the emergence of a mysterious Sky Ravine in the Far North Territory eight hundred years ago, everything had begun to slowly change.

As time passed, cultivators of the Divine Sea Realm found their cultivation not increasing but decreasing, gradually falling to the extent of only being at the True Lake Realm. By five hundred years ago, the entire Soaring Dragon World no longer had any strong cultivators of the Divine Sea Realm.

Such a situation continued to deteriorate, and after another three hundred years, not even cultivators of the True Lake Realm could be born in the Soaring Dragon World.

Thus, in today's Soaring Dragon World, there were only cultivators of the Cloud River Realm.

Without the opportunity to ponder this sudden influx of information before, Lu Ye now found it truly unbelievable as he considered it.

What exactly was the reason that caused the cultivators in the entire Soaring Dragon World to continuously lower their cultivation limits?

This gave Lu Ye a feeling that if this world were compared to a balloon, then the balloon's size would be the measure of this world's substance. The larger the substance, the higher the limit that cultivators could achieve.

But for some unknown reason, the 'balloon' of the Soaring Dragon World was shrinking, leading to an ever-decreasing limit for cultivators, from Divine Sea to True Lake, and from True Lake to Cloud River.

Perhaps in a few hundred years, the Soaring Dragon World would only have a group of cultivators at the Spirit Stream Realm, and given even more time, it was possible that cultivators might cease to exist altogether…

All these changes had started from that inexplicable Sky Ravine.

The entire situation in the Soaring Dragon World was quite similar to a corner of the Cloud River battlefield.

With Ye Ying possessing the Cloud River Level 9 cultivation and his commanding use of the Tyrannical Saber Technique, he certainly shouldn't have met a sudden death, unless he was ambushed and encircled.

It was highly likely the God's Will Sect was also involved in this matter.

"First heal, then figure out how to take revenge," Lu Ye spoke.

Vengeance was definitely to be sought, not so much because Lu Ye identified strongly with his identity as Master Ye Liu, or because he had deep feelings for Tyrannical Saber Villa; after all, he was an outsider. However, this could very well be a test from Heaven's Augury. Since he now had the identity of Master Ye Liu, he naturally had to act according to this role.

Furthermore, he was quite intrigued by the Tyrannical Saber Technique of the Tyrannical Saber Villa.

He had always struggled with his saber skills because he had no one to teach and guide him in his cultivation.

If he could reclaim the Tyrannical Saber Villa, besides having a foothold in the Soaring Dragon World in the future, he could also study the Tyrannical Saber Technique.

This technique wasn't Ye Ying's own creation but something he discovered in an ancient relic. It was unknown from which era or which sect of the Soaring Dragon World it had originated.

If it had been a saber technique created by a cultivator of the Cloud River Realm, Lu Ye might not have been interested, perhaps deeming Ye Ying's saber expertise not even comparable to his own.

But since it was something obtained from a relic, then it surely had value worth observing.

He had seen Ye Liuli in action before; despite her petite stature, she unleashed an overwhelmingly domineering presence. Clearly, the Tyrannical Saber Technique was no ordinary skill.

His own saber skills were also ferocious, sharing some similarities with the Tyrannical Saber Technique.

Additionally, there was more than just the Tyrannical Saber Technique within the Tyrannical Saber Villa. Since Ye Ying founded the villa, he had collected many documents related to saber techniques, all of which Lu Ye desired.

Initially, he was somewhat dissatisfied with the fate arranged by Heaven's Augury, a life shattered and hunted. But now, he no longer harbored such thoughts.

The plan of Heaven's Augury was indeed reasonable.

His cultivation was saber-based, so he was arranged to become Master Ye Liu.

"Okay!" Ye Liuli, with reddened eyes, gritted her teeth in agreement. The hatred in her heart was genuine, and although she did not know for sure who was responsible for the destruction of Tyrannical Saber Villa, including the God's Will Sect in her revenge was certainly not a mistake.

Her family's blood feud had now become her driving force to grow stronger in cultivation.

One day later, within Huayan Mountain, several cultivators were resting and chatting amongst themselves.

"Those two little beasts are really good at hiding, not showing themselves up till now."

They had been chasing Lu Ye and Ye Liuli deep into this place, but up till now, they hadn't even caught a glimpse of them, clueless about their whereabouts.

"We lost contact with one of our teams earlier, and it's unclear what danger they encountered. It's best for everyone to be careful; Huayan Mountain is not a benevolent place."

"No matter, as long as we join forces in this mountain with so many ferocious beasts... Who's over there!" the speaker suddenly turned, bellowing sharply.

Simultaneously, the other cultivators also stood up, attentively looking in that direction.

Soft footsteps sounded, and under the moonlight, two figures, one tall and one short, slowly emerged from the night.

Upon seeing the faces of the newcomers, the cultivators all rejoiced greatly.

"It's you two little beasts!"

"Hahaha, to think we'd find what we were looking for without any effort after treading through miles of iron shoes."

They had just been worrying about how to find Lu Ye and Ye Liuli, and unexpectedly, the two had delivered themselves right to their doorstep.

Next to Lu Ye, Ye Liuli looked uneasy, her knuckles white as she gripped the handle of her saber.

In her perception, any one of these cultivators had higher cultivation than she and her Brother Ye Liu. Making such an overt appearance was clearly not wise, but since her Brother Ye Liu had chosen to do so, all she could do was follow suit.
