NOVEL WEB Chapter 1332: Peach Garden Valley
Huang Hao could only shake her head as she watched Huang Lingzhu restore Jian Xieshen's hideout, which had been destroyed by her avatar a few days ago. "Did you do anything to the Titan Race's domain before?"
"I accelerated the flow of time within it." Huang Lingzhu's answer didn't surprise Huang Hao, as she had expected it. "Their domain contains many special things, and they will be beneficial to his training; thus, I decided to speed it up."
"How far did you speed up the flow of time in there?"
"A day there is equivalent to an hour here." This time, Huang Hao looked at Huang Lingzhu in shock, especially since the flow of time was too fast. "I had prepared it before using my true power in the Primordial Realm, but I hadn't decided where to use it. Since he managed to find the entrance to their domain, I chose to use it there."
Huang Hao released a soft sigh. "Do you think he noticed your action?"
"Yes." Huang Lingzhu crouched beside one of the symbols on the ground. "The first time I met him in the Ancient Garden, he immediately realized that I was accelerating the flow of time in that cave. Moreover, he's already accustomed to the long flow of time, whether in his residence or in the dream space, so I believe he immediately noticed it the moment he entered there."
Huang Hao looked around the place and asked her again. "What do you think about these symbols? Do you think my master's conjecture about those mysterious immortals is correct?"
"These symbols are as old as the ones I've seen in the Primordial Realm in the past, and they prove that Long Hun's conjecture is correct. Moreover, I had immediately looked for them as soon as Sheng Ming informed us of their appearance, but I couldn't sense their presence at all." Huang Lingzhu's words made Huang Hao's expression become very serious, especially since she was the first and strongest living being in their universe. "I can't be sure of their strength because I haven't met them, but the only person who can help them hide from me is Chaos, so I'm also certain that he deliberately created them to foil my plans."
"Or he purposely created them to give Ling Yun a challenge."
"That possibility exists, but we currently lack a solution to determine his true purpose. After all, only Long Hun could enter there in the past, but now he's dead, and he no longer has the ability to enter there and meet his father again. The only option we have now is to train Ling Yun using the harshest methods, and the Titan race's domain is the most appropriate for that." Huang Lingzhu then contacted all the immortals in the immortal tower and ordered them to go to the Supreme Realm. "Shiwang Zhizhu and the others will arrive here soon, and I asked them to search everywhere for those two mysterious immortals."
Huang Hao nodded slightly in agreement. "I think that's the best option for now, but I'm worried that the Chaos created an immortal with abilities equal to and similar to yours. Therefore, you'd better warn them to be careful, or we'll be in trouble if they fall into their hands."
"Naturally, I already did that, but I'm sure they'll be fine." Huang Lingzhu then stood up and destroyed the place, leaving Huang Hao speechless. "Let's go somewhere else."
"Where?"
"The location of the Ling Yun's woman."

A while later, they arrived at the dead river, where Sheng Ming waited near the small, broken statue. Huang Lingzhu then told the Life Goddess about her discovery at the previous location, and she also told her about the other immortals, making her feel relieved.
Huang Lingzhu touched the small, broken statue and used her time ability, surprising Sheng Ming and Huang Hao. "Why did you do that?"
"If I hadn't done it, they wouldn't have finished in ten years, wasting their time." Sheng Ming and Huang Hao looked at Huang Lingzhu in confusion. "The water nymphs are different from the other natural races, and they would never hand over their relics to those women so easily. They would definitely give them tough tests, so I deliberately accelerated the flow of time in there."
"I see." Sheng Ming and Huang Hao nodded in understanding.
Huang Lingzhu then threw out a device, and a formless barrier enveloped the place. "You don't need to wait for them here, Sheng Ming. Instead, I want you to go somewhere else to check something out, as I'm worried those mysterious immortals will go there and kidnap the Seer."
"The Seer?"
"Yes." Huang Lingzhu touched Sheng Ming's forehead. "Jia Yuyan is in the Sky Mansion with Huang Tianyuan now, so you can follow my directions to get there."
"So, you've known the location of the Sky Mansion for years, huh?" Sheng Ming softly spoke.
Huang Lingzhu smiled in response. "Huang Tianyuan was the first Seer born in this universe, so I've been monitoring her since she was born. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to have the Sky Mansion Key and give it to Ling Yun, right?"
"All right, I'll head to their location now." Sheng Ming immediately contacted Xiao Xiao and the others before leaving the Slaughter Heaven Domain at full speed.
Huang Hao gazed in the direction Sheng Ming was departing and asked Huang Lingzhu a few questions. "What were you actually planning? Why did you send her there? Why didn't you protect the Seer yourself? If you went there and moved the Seer to another place, she would definitely be in a completely safe condition."
"I didn't plan anything." Huang Hao glared at her as she didn't believe that Huang Lingzhu didn't plan anything. "It's up to you whether you want to believe it or not, but I really didn't plan anything, and I sent Sheng Ming there because he could help Jia Yuyan with something."
After saying that, Huang Lingzhu immediately flew away from that place, especially since she believed that no one could break through her barrier.
"Tch! That bitch will never change, and she'll keep plotting against everyone." Huang Hao immediately flew after Huang Lingzhu.

Soon, they arrived at the cave, where Ling Xi waited for Nu Shen, Lyra, and Ye Jing to receive the inheritance from the natural races.
Ling Xi and Lei Lin frowned as soon as they saw Huang Lingzhu, especially since they never liked her, particularly the lightning spirit, who already knew that she was repeatedly manipulating her big sister's life.
Nu Wanxing immediately appeared before them, cupped her hands toward Huang Lingzhu, and bowed her head. 'It's been a long time since we last saw each other, Time Lord. What brings you to this domain today?'
"I came to this domain for other business, and since these three girls are receiving inheritance from your natural races, I will help them a little." Huang Lingzhu waved her hand and accelerated the flow of time within the cave. "This way, the process will end more quickly, and they can begin their training. Wanxing, I know you have responsibilities toward the members of your race, but I hope you will soon let go of everything and enter the cycle of reincarnation. Look at your soul; it is weakening with each passing moment, and I cannot continuously strengthen it; otherwise, your soul will become too weak, and you will be reincarnated with an incomplete soul."
Nu Wanxing nodded in understanding. 'Thank you for your help and warning, Time Lord. The heir of the primordial chaos dragon will bring the others here soon, and I will immediately enter the circle of reincarnation after my task is completed.'
"That's good." Huang Lingzhu immediately disappeared without saying anything to Ling Xi and Lei Lin.
"Is she planning to manipulate us again? Why did she send Sheng Ming away?"
"I don't know," Huang Hao replied to Lei Lin with a heavy sigh. "No one can understand Huang Lingzhu's thoughts except my master, but I feel that she is indeed plotting something beyond our knowledge. By the way, she sent Sheng Ming to meet Jia Yuyan and Huang Tianyuan at the Sky Mansion, but she didn't explain to me in detail about her reasons for doing so. Additionally, she has ordered the other immortals to come here, especially since the appearance of those mysterious immortals is truly troublesome."
"Does she know their identities?"
Huang Hao shook his head at Ling Xi. "My master suspected that his father created them, but we can only wonder about his purpose for doing so. The first possibility is that he wants to thwart Huang Lingzhu's plans, and the second possibility is that he wants to use them to test Ling Yun before facing him."
"I see." Ling Xi nodded in understanding. "I'm sure the first possibility isn't the real one because the Chaos could stop Huang Lingzhu without any effort, as he was more omnipotent than her. Therefore, I am more inclined to believe in the second possibility, since Long Hun was unable to stop him in the past, and he wanted to test his son's successor."
"Yeah." Huang Hao then informed Ling Xi and Lei Lin about Huang Lingzhu's actions for Ling Yun in the Titan race's domain, which surprised both spirits. "For now, we can only wait for his return, and I hope he will be stronger after he leaves that place."
"I hope so." Ling Xi then contacted Ling Yun through the harem connection, and she informed him about everything, especially Huang Lingzhu's decision to send Sheng Ming to the Sky Mansion.

*Swoosh*
After they traveled through the void several times, Zhou Yu finally brought Ling Yun's clone out of it, and they arrived inside Peach Garden Valley, where Zhizun Buxiu resided.
"Ling Yun? Zhou Yu?" Lu Shen, the druid, was surprised by their sudden appearance.
"Oh? I didn't expect that you live here, Little Shen." Zhou Yu then looked far away, as did Ling Yun's clone. Their gazes fell on another druid, who was cultivating in that direction. "She—"
"Hahaha." Loud laughter interrupted Zhou Yu, and Zhizun Buxiu landed in front of them. "Did you bring this little one here to see me, Little Void Spirit?"
