History’s Number 1 Founder

Xiao Yan and Zhu Yi turned to look at Lin Feng. Although Lin Feng confirmed their guesses, they were still stunned. Yang Qing, Li Yuanfang and the rest were even more shocked. The normally calm Li Yuanfang also revealed a stunned look at this point.

Lin Feng said softly, “Although I’m not 100% sure, if I’m not wrong, Wen Chiyang’s wife is a demon.”

“But she’s not a regular demon that we always encounter. She’s special, like a cloud filled with spiritual energy and life aura. After a long time, her spiritual intelligence was piqued and she became a demon.”

“You can call her a demon or a freak. As for the details, because I was not there, I can’t tell.”

Lin Feng scanned the building around him, “I once heard the Cang Heaven Blade and Xuan Heaven Seal mention that during the Antiquity Age, there was a cloud demon that appeared once. The cloud demon was shocking, mysterious and unpredictable.”

Zhu Yi commented, “Cloud demon? It doesn’t sound evil, but elegant like the clouds in the sky.”

Li Yuanfang’s disciple, Tan Yunqing, suddenly said in a deep voice, “Could it be a beauty trap by the demons. After all, before Shen Yuan rose, the Supreme Heavenly Mirror had not been restored yet. Wen Chiyang was the strongest opponent to the demons then.”

“No, it can’t be. If we have to put it in this way, why not we say that it’s a beauty trap by the humans instead.” Yang Qing said, “Although I don’t know when Wen Chiyang married the cloud demon, it didn’t seem to affect his involvement in the War of the Two Worlds. Normally, when he fought the demons, he didn’t seem to let them off easily too. Rather, the demons remained hidden and rarely revealed themselves.”

Lin Feng led everyone as they left the building and came beside the red lake. He pointed with his finger and a streak of purple clouds landed in the huge lake. The lake started to reflect many images.

The junior disciples let out a muffled scream. They saw that at the bottom of the lake, there was a youth sitting cross-legged. The body of the youth was covered by many red chains, which restrained him. It was the figure of Wen Chiyang.

As they took a closer look, Tang Jun and the rest discovered that it was also another light projection formed from the aura left behind by Wen Chiyang.

Lin Feng looked at the light projection and nodded slightly, “After the battle with Shen Yuan, Wen Chiyang was heavily injured and he almost perished. As he accidentally entered the Netherworld Sea, he managed to preserve his life, but his own body was sucked by the Netherworld Sea, which prevented him from escaping.”

“After a long time passed, he recovered from his injury, but he was assimilated with the Netherworld Sea in the process of recovery. To some extent, he became a part of the Netherworld Sea.”

Lin Feng looked at this small world in front of him, “It’s possible that this was not a lake originally. But as Wen Chiyang was here, changes occurred here and this place converted into a lake. After that, a small world was formed. As it developed, it created other small worlds. For example, the plane of space that the Nether Priest possessed is one of the small worlds.”

Xiao Yan turned his head to look at the building by the lakeside, “That building and the light projections inside reveal Wen Chiyang’s yearning for his family. From his memories, projected by the images, his actual body had been stuck in this lake.”

Zhu Yi lowered his head to look at the lake, “And after that, as he recovered from his injuries, although he was assimilated by the Netherworld Sea, he also developed a deep understanding of the Netherworld Sea. Thus, he slowly figured a way out to escape the Netherworld Sea and return to the Greater World.”

“During this process, he slowly gained control of the Netherworld Sea. And before this, he was stuck in this lake without any escape route. Thus, the path that Wen Chiyang explored for himself must still be in this lake.”

Lin Feng smiled, “Yes, you are right. By right, it should be here.”

After he finished saying, his right index finger touched his own forehead. The Dual Dimension Vacuum Charm was activated and his Avatar of Ares disappeared. The person that appeared in front of Xiao Yan, Zhu Yi and the rest was Lin Feng’s actual body now.

As his hair flowed, Lin Feng smiled. He used his powers to gather his disciples before descending into the lake that was flashing with red light.

“It’s not water, but extremely miraculous, concentrated spiritual energy that came from the same source as the Netherworld Sea. But it’s been stable for quite long. It’s no longer as brutal and ferocious.” Lin Feng looked at the flashing light projection in the lake.

In the light projection, the red chains around Wen Chiyang’s body entered his body and no longer restrained him. But Wen Chiyang could not release himself too. Both parties seemed to combine to become one entity.

When the chains entered the body fully, Wen Chiyang opened his eyes slowly. He then dived down to the bottom of the lake.

Lin Feng followed the light projection down and saw that at the depth of the lake, there was a bright, deep red light spot. This light spot was visibly darker and creepier than the rest of the water in the lake.

Wen Chiyang’s figure sank into that deep red light spot before disappearing. It was like a gate.

“Master, my Nefarious Almighty Sword and the Catastrophic Broken Rock are both shaking tremendously now. Whatever is on the side must be attracting them.” Xiao Yan’s voice rang by Lin Feng’s ears. Lin Feng nodded his hand and landed on the light spot too.

In an instant, Lin Feng felt a great distortion power. Even while his actual body was here, he still felt a little uncomfortable, as if his Immortal Soul was about to be torn apart.

But after an instant, everything regained normalcy again. Whereas the scene in front of Lin Feng’s eyes changed again.

That was a scene of chaos. Beneath his feet, it was a cliff and at the bottom of the cliff, it was boundless disasters raging.

The Nefarious Spectral Primordial Fire, Heavenly Apocalyptic Blaze, Blood River Primordial Water, Nine Nether Draught…countless catastrophes gathered together and collided with one another. This summoned a scene of extreme destruction and space was continually being crushed.

In front, there was a long path formed from red light that extended into the distance.

At the end of the path, there was also red light, which prevented one from seeing what was on the other side. With his powers, Lin Feng stopped the light projection from shaking. This space in front of all of them was more unstable than the small world just now.

Wen Chiyang’s projection could be seen advancing slowly on the path.

As Lin Feng stepped on the path, he felt as if countless images had come before his eyes. As he looked closer, these images revealed the memories of Wen Chiyang in the past.

They were not left behind by Wen Chiyang intentionally. But when he advanced on this path a long time, he cultivated the powers of the Netherworld Sea and tried to gain control of the Netherworld Sea. During this process, his own soul memories and self were naturally left behind in this Netherworld Sea world.

As he followed this path, Lin Feng also witnessed the life experiences of Wen Chiyang.

He accepted discipleship at a young age under the Great Void Holy Man and followed the Great Void Holy Man to cultivate. When his cultivation was still shallow, he displayed immense potential. As he grew up, he slowly became the new dominant individual in the Divine Lands. It’s only when he fought Shen Yuan did he land in the Netherworld Sea and preserve his life.

Lin Feng passed this news to Xiao Yan, Zhu Yi and the rest. When they saw it, they were all silent.

After a while, Yang Qing sighed, “His wife is indeed a demon. However, it’s like what you said, Master.”

In Wen Chiyang’s memories, his journey with the cloud demon took up a lot of his memory space.

Then, two white clouds that had been nourished by the spiritual energy of the Heavens and Earth started to develop their own spiritual intelligence. When he was young, Wen Chiyang met one of them. The white cloud was still not well-versed in language and they could only communicate through their minds. But they developed a connection with each other.

After that, they were separated for a long time and the cloud turned into a demon. She tried to find him and finally reunited with him.

After they spent more time with each other, they finally wedded. Although their marriage was something not many people knew, it still caused a huge uproar among the top cultivators in the Divine Lands.

Because of this, the son of Emperor Xia, Xia Han, tried to violate the sister of Wen Chiyang’s wife and was killed as a result. After Emperor Xia received news, he killed the sister of Wen Chiyang’s wife. After that, Wen Chiyang interfered in this feud, which mediated the conflict a little. However, the enmity still remained.

Because of some reasons, Wen Chiyang and Yan Xinghe developed some conflict with each other in the Great Void Sect. When Wen Chiyang married the cloud demon, this further worsened the conflict between the both of them.

“Senior Wen, why do you have do this?” The person who said this was a man wearing an ancient costume. He looked similar to Yan Nanlai and was another one of the Four Immemorial Heroes of the Great Void, Yan Xinghe.

Wen Chiyang looked at him and said, “Xinghe, you are also someone with a family. You should understand.”

Yan Xinghe replied, “But my wife is not a demon.”

Wen Chiyang shook his head, “Yun’er is different from the rest of the demons. Besides Xia Han, she did not harm anyone or anything in the Divine Lands. And whatever happened in the past was because of Xia Fangyu and his son. It’s understandable that Xia Fangyu wants to avenge his son, but what was he doing? If he didn’t pamper his son, Xia Han wouldn’t have been so brazen.”

Yan Xinghe stared at Wen Chiyang, “Even so, he is also a human like us. He is the most suitable human emperor in the Divine Lands.”

Wen Chiyang’s expression turned a little complex and he said, “Xinghe, choosing the emperor is not part of our role.”

The eventual conclusion was that Wen Chiyang would leave Mount Baiyun and return to his hometown. Although he missed his sect, the blissful life he enjoyed with his wife also left him satisfied.

And what left him even more elated was that the product of their love was about to be born.

After knowing that the cloud demon was pregnant, Wen Chiyang enjoyed the happiest days of his life during that period.

In his memory, he was no longer the powerful person in the Divine Lands that swept the world off its feet. He was no longer the leader of the Four Immemorial Heroes of the Great Void. He was like every man who was going to be a father – ordinary yet anxious. He thought of a lot of weird things, anticipated the delivery of his child and was even a little uncomfortable and scared.

As he reached the end of the path, Wen Chiyang stopped in his path and looked at the bright red light in front of him. He seemed a little lost, but every soon, he regained his peace. His gaze transcended layers of space and time, as he looked at his wife.

“My child, although I can’t see you, I will always love you.”

“I hope that you can grow up in a happy and worry-less environment.”
