Chapter 167, Chapter 3: The Blind Girl in the World of High Martial Arts
These things were illusory and ethereal to Xu Qingzhou in the past.
But now...
"Why would such a powerful being come to such a small world?"
Yu Wanwan held his wrist and played with it, smiling gently.
"Of course, it's to become stronger."
Xu Qingzhou looked up.
Yu Wanwan lowered her eyes and met his gaze.
"The myriad realms are no different from any other world; there is also strife and deceit there."
"The belief there is that the strong are respected, the weak are the original sin, and no one will seek justice or revenge for you if you die."
"So, you're very strong?"
In the previous world, those outsiders seemed to be no match for her.
Has he managed to curry favor with someone powerful?
Unexpectedly, Yu Wanwan shook her head.
"My combat power across all the heavens and myriad realms is so low that I can't even crack the top 100!"
Do you really think everyone is one of those crazy people who shout for war?
Xu Qingzhou's pupils widened slightly.
To him, she was already an insurmountable mountain.
With such strength, how come you can't even make it into the top 100?
How powerful must those people in all the heavens and myriad realms be!
Xu Qingzhou grabbed her hand in return, holding it tightly, his face filled with anxiety.
"They recognized you before, will that affect you?"
With his current strength, he can't even touch the hem of those outsiders' clothes.
We couldn't protect her!
"Pfft..."
A laugh rang out.
Xu Qingzhou instinctively shielded Yu Wanwan behind him.
"who?!"
Not far away, a man appeared out of nowhere.
He wore a white robe with gold thread outlining the edges, which shimmered with light as he moved.
"Little friend, do you have some misunderstanding about her?"
The man walked unsteadily, exuding a lazy air.
"In terms of combat strength, she's definitely not one of the top fighters, but no one can kill her! The ones who should be afraid are those bastards like Wanqichao!"
As he spoke, the man stopped five steps away from them, looked at Yu Wanwan hiding behind him, and blinked.
"Isn't that right, little nanny?"
"..."
Yu Wanwan gritted her teeth, her smile sweet.
"Qin Huai, do you want to die?"
Screw the little nanny!
He's the wet nurse!
His whole family are wet nurses!
Xu Qingzhou also realized what was happening.
They knew each other.
He paused for a few seconds, glanced at Qin Huai, and then at Yu Wanwan.
He quietly stepped back half a step and stood beside Yu Wanwan.
Qin Huai raised his hand in surrender.
"I don't want to!"
Yu Wanwan snorted and ignored him.
Qin Huai, on the other hand, kept staring at Xu Qingzhou, making Xu Qingzhou feel uncomfortable.
"You're really brave to bring him out like that?"
They weren't afraid that if they made a mistake, the child's hard-won, somewhat solidified soul would dissipate.
Yu Wanwan rolled her eyes at him.
"If he can die right under my nose, then I might as well give up my life."
Qin Huai raised an eyebrow, smiling but saying nothing.
With this level of healing ability, you still say you're not a wet nurse!
Yu Wanwan was too lazy to argue with him.
"Since you're here, let's talk about compensation."
"?"
Qin Huai was taken aback.
"What kind of compensation?"
"Of course, it's payment for helping you fight and save people before!"
Qin Huai subconsciously clutched his purse and took three steps back.
"Didn't I already give it to you?!"
Yu Wanwan's smile remained unchanged.
"Yes, but now I'm raising the price on the spot!"
Justified and confident.
She's utterly devastated and paid such a high price, yet now she's demanding exorbitant prices without a shred of guilt!
Qin Huai was so angry he almost laughed, and pointed at the seemingly ignorant but impressive Xu Qingzhou.
"Didn't you get an unexpected bonus?"
Yu Wanwan's gaze was deep and unfathomable.
"This is my own business, what's it to you?"
Is he Xu Qingzhou's father or his ancestor?
"..."
Sigh, this person is really hard to fool.
Qin Huai was a little worried.
"Tell me what you want first?"
If she asks for too much, tell her to ask Huaijin for it.
Okay, it's decided then!
Yu Wanwan didn't care what he thought and pushed Xu Qingzhou forward.
"Simple, just upgrade his stupid system."
"..."
Qin Huai's expression was strange.
"It's that simple?"
"uh-huh!"
"..."
Okay.
Qin Huai took a few careful looks at Xu Qingzhou.
A few seconds later, he suddenly started swearing.
"Yu Wanwan! Are you kidding me?! This isn't a system, it's the Heart of the Universe!"
Although the appearance is indeed that of the system.
But its responsibility is to serve as a bridge connecting the worlds in this virtual universe!
Yu Wanwan maintained her smile.
"Then it's essentially a stupid system!"
"..."
Qin Huai choked up, speechless.
What she said wasn't entirely wrong.
Regardless of its responsibilities or actual uses.
The characteristic bestowed upon it by the Creator is that it is a system.
Despite his grumbling, Qin Huai still agreed.
It's just a matter of modifying and upgrading this system; it's not a difficult task.
It's a bit troublesome, no, it's extremely troublesome!
After handing him the system, Yu Wanwan pulled Xu Qingzhou away.
"Remember to send it over once the upgrade is complete!"
"..."
Qin Huai slapped his hand.
Let him come over and watch the fun since he has nothing better to do!
It's as if they've never seen spatial fluctuations before.
Yu Wanwan's spirit draws Xu Qingzhou, causing him to wander in this boundless and magnificent ocean.
Xu Qingzhou tried to hold back, but he couldn't.
Who is that person?
"Qin Huai, Director of the Time and Space Administration Bureau."
Xu Qingzhou was stunned.
"Time and Space Administration Bureau?"
Does this thing actually exist?
Yu Wanwan sneered.
"Anything, even if it doesn't exist in the first place, will be brought to reality by someone who conceives of it."
"Coincidentally, he has mastered the laws of spacetime and has the ability to make the Spacetime Administration Bureau a reality."
Xu Qingzhou seemed to be deep in thought.
Unlike when they came out, this time, Yu Wanwan didn't make Xu Qingzhou close his eyes again.
He kept his eyes open the whole time, taking in all the scenery he had never seen when he traveled the world before.
They flew past a newly formed nebula.
The intense primal energy almost scorched the soul.
Xu Qingzhou seemed to sense something.
These worlds are probably where he will go next.
At this time, these worlds are still in the process of being conceived, in a state of chaos.
It operates rigidly according to the plot, like a series of rigid procedures.
Only when he lands there will those worlds truly take shape.
Like the world he had visited, it would continue to operate and develop naturally even after he left.
Xu Qingzhou then turned his gaze to the world he had visited.
This time, he witnessed the birth of the world, like a flower bud blooming.
I also witnessed the world's demise, its return to desolation.
He saw a spark of civilization glimmering in some corner, only to vanish in an instant.
Furthermore, I saw a kind of obscure rhythm hidden deep within these worlds, one that is difficult to understand yet vast enough.
Compared to these things, personal joys and sorrows, loves and hates all seem insignificant.
The power he had always pursued seemed to have lost its original weight in the face of such vastness.
A strange feeling welled up in my heart.
He no longer uses his eyes to see, but his whole soul to feel.
Feel the fundamental laws that constitute everything, feel those mysterious and obscure secrets.
Yu Wanwan couldn't help but glance at him, the curve of her lips deepening.
It wasn't in vain that she took him on this journey.
"Um……"
A sudden sharp pain shot through my forehead, and a trickle of blood oozed from my lips.
Yu Wanwan covered her head, breathing slightly heavily.
Qin Huai is right, you've gone too far!
Daoguo angrily treated her injuries.
She hasn't fully recovered yet, and to have to bear the impact of his enlightenment and advancement is simply asking for trouble!
Yu Wanwan didn't have the energy to argue with it, so she smiled gently.
"Thank you for taking us back, Guoguo."
[...]
Dao Guo cursed and swore, but he could only resign himself to his fate and lift the two of them up, turning into a beam of green light and returning to that high-martial-arts world.
The soul has returned to its rightful place.
Inside the wooden cabin, the two opened their eyes at the same time.
Yu Wanwan reverted to her appearance as a blind girl with lifeless eyes, showing no sign of abnormality on her face.
Xu Qingzhou has changed a lot.
The moment he opened his eyes, his aura flowed naturally, causing a slight ripple in the spiritual energy of the valley.
Without deliberately exerting his power, his cultivation level naturally improved, reaching a higher level.
Xu Qingzhou glanced at his palm, feeling the surging yet tranquil power within his body.
There was no joy of breakthrough or advancement, only a sense of peace and enlightenment.
He looked at Yu Wanwan, his eyebrows curving into a smile.
"Xiao Wan, what level have I reached now?"
Yu Wanwan took a closer look and was somewhat surprised.
"Three mirrors, three layers, not bad!"
The three mirrors represent three realms.
To see clearly, to cut through falsehood, to be the only one.
To see the "self" in the past, present, and future, to cut off illusions, to understand one's true nature, and to achieve the prototype of the "one true self".
Going further up, once he breaks through to the fourth level of the third realm, he will be able to reach the minimum strength required to enter the myriad worlds.
In the previous world, he had just reached the first level of the third realm.
He had only taken a trip to the virtual universe sea, yet he had directly skipped the second level and advanced to the third level.
This talent truly befits the Creator's favorite son.
Xu Qingzhou's composure and tranquility vanished, and he happily spun Yu Wanwan around in his arms.
"I will try my best!"
After seeing the vast ocean of space, he became even more aware of the distance between them.
But this realization did not make him back down.
On the contrary, it strengthened my resolve to become stronger.
However, compared to before, he is no longer impatient.
Yu Wanwan didn't push him away. After a long while, she raised her hand and patted his back.
Time flies like an arrow; a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
This month is enough time for Xu Qingzhou to digest and settle into his new realm, and to completely stabilize himself.
That was enough for Zhuang Xinyue to understand.
Of course, most importantly, during this month, Alliance Leader Zhuang found a divine doctor who was on par with Ghost Doctor Wuming.
Unfortunately, even this miracle doctor couldn't cure her.
It's not that the poison can't be cured.
Rather, it was the corrosive power within her body, derived from the life force of all things, which the divine physician did not know what it was.
Given the unknown factors at play, even this renowned doctor dared not attempt to detoxify easily.
She feared that if the poison were neutralized, it would trigger that unknown entity and worsen her condition.
In the end, Zhuang Xinyue returned to the Valley of Death once again.
Accompanying them this time were not only Shen Liuyun, but also the leader of the Zhuang Alliance, the divine doctor, and the owner of Wuliu Manor.
The father of Xu Qingzhou's body.
Upon meeting, Master Xu drew his sword and chased after Xu Qingzhou, slashing at him.
"You little brat! What kind of filthy things have you gotten into outside?!"
"You dare to hide?! Get over here right now!"
