<h4>Chapter 1540 Chapter 1533: Gathered</h4>
Moored to the Dark Void, therge-sized Voidship remained affixed by a huge anchor emanating spatial fluctuations. The deck of the ship had numerous beauties and heroes, all talents, standing around engrossed in conversation or insightful thinking.
The Ascendant Emperor of Neo-Dawn, or to those here familiar with him, Wei Wuyin, had specifically sent his Grand Knight to fetch them. They didn''t know why, but none of them dared to dy or refuse. In fact, a few among them were disappointed at the sight of this gathering. Some had thoughts of being invited into the legendary Original Dawn Pce said to be located in the forbidden region once known as the Deste Dra Ster Region.
Standing directly to the left of the Grand Knight of Neo-Dawn was a straight-spined, nine-colored-eyed Han Yuhei whose bearing was overly exuberant to any perceptive eye. He was quite clearly happy as the shadow of a smile was ever-present.
"Little brat, you should hide your emotions a little. It''s too transparent," Wu Yu teased with a smile.
If it was before, Han Yuhei would have red maddeningly at such a remark, willing to exchange blows even if he was destined to lose, but at this moment, his nine-colored eyes brightened as he revealed a grin. "Old Wu, today is just a great day. Why suppress anything? My third wife always wanted me to smile more. Basking in the brilliance is far better than being stoic and t, hiding is too bothersome, and she was right."
Wu Yu rolled his eyes with a soft scoff. However, he felt a wave of satisfaction at Han Yuhei''s attitude and was unable to conceal his smile. After seeing this little brat work so hard and achieve his goals, it was hard not to feel pride in the face of that. The little wine pourer had grown up a little.
"I agree," Tian Muyang was on the opposite side of Wu Yu. The once renowned Imperial Monarch no longer adorned the dressing of the Aeternal Sky Starfield''s royalty and wore long-sleeved grey and white robes. "If you''re happy, be happy. Why conceal it? I, too, have been told endlessly by those three lineage beauties to smile more. The pestering is all with good intent. I didn''t understand that before." He had a big smile on his face too.
When he thought of Bing Liya-the young mistress of the Bing n, Bing Fei-his beloved wife, and Bing Jingru-her mother and the n Leader of the Bing n, he couldn''t help but smile as he felt a twang of deep satisfaction in his heart. Their gorgeous bodies shed through his memory, including their recent ''familial union'' and it was enough to leave him fulfilled.
Wu Yu chuckled heartily. Tian Muyang joined in. Han Yuhei''s smile deepened.
While they had had different routes, with one having gained Wei Wuyin''s attention early on and provided him timely assistance, another who kept working incessantly and diligently in the background to support Wei Wuyin, while thest had performed a single feat worthy of admiration and a sign of loyalty on multiple fronts, they had all achieved their goals in the end.
Thest two were recently officially dered as Wei Wuyin''s Alchemic Knights. HOW COULD THEY NOT BE HAPPY?!
The news was enough for Bing Fei to concede in allowing a ''familial union'' that Tian Muyang had been seeking for a while. A gift, she justified. But in truth, she didn''t dare to decline and be reced by that conniving Bing Liya, that little niece of hers, who was eyeing her position with her cutesy acts and big eyes.
Tian Muyang didn''t particrly care about the why or all that. His future prospects had jumped massively! He was the Alchemic Knight of the youngest Worldly Saint Alchemist in history! The Neo-Dawn Ascendant Emperor! Worldly Saint? Even the mythical Heavenly Saint! As long as he lived, he would certainly be able to push to greater heights far exceeding Tian Taizong!
Meanwhile, Wu Baozhai was huddled together with several familiar figures. It had been too long since they had all gathered like this. The feeling of nostalgia washed over her. Moreover, her eyes were fixed on two figures who she had thought were lost...Just like...Lian Yu...Qing Qiumu and Long Tingyu!
The former seemed slightly weak, but they had arrived via Void Portal a day ago. The light in her eyes seemed to have undergone a significant change from before. While Qing Qiumu had always been a hardened fighter who experienced past trauma, she always exuded an aura reminiscent of mother nature at its calmest, and it made her easy to trust and easier to love. However, her current aura felt as if all of mother nature had turned grim and quiet.She felt...different-changed.Had tragedy finally overwhelmed her?
Long Tingyu, on the other hand, had grown up to be an astonishingly beautiful young woman. She still contained her childlike brilliance and youthful exuberance, only slightly matured as if once given a life mission that had bound her soul. However, this binding had been released recently and her free-spirited soul was granted fresh freedom. She was hugging each of them on sight and wanted to know about everything.
Na Xinyi and Lin Ziyan stood together. Since the incident of Na Xinyi sacrificing two of her Primal Yins and Lin Ziyan bing brutally crippled as a result of another''s grudge, the two''s rtionship was enviable as they seemed to trust each other wholeheartedly. This was unlike initially. The two had sought a single man''s attention and affection. They often had conflicts with each other at the slightest drop of a hat because of this. In fact, the two fought against each other on multiple asions. While It wasn''t outright life-or-death fighting, those fights were intense and memorable.
Now, they shared beautiful smiles as Long Tingyu orbited around Na Xinyi as if treating her as the biggest sister of the group. Long ago, that was once Wu Baozhai''s glorious position. However, she didn''t feel slighted at all and only felt happy that Na Xinyi had fulfilled her promise and brought Long Tingyu back.
Hong Ru and Xiao Bing held each other''s hands openly next to them. They didn''t try to hide their intimate rtionship at all. The fiery and frosty beauties drew an enviable sight from anyone whose gazes met them.
The entire scene of talking women as profoundly beautiful as the starry skies was enough to shake the hearts of everyone. Not a single one of them wascking and they contained their own unique bearings and attractive qualities.
In another area of the deck, Da Shan carried N Shur by the stomach as thetter dangled from the ground, her feisty hair and lovable head were buried between two demonic mountains while she looked outward curiously, unbothered by being carried in such a way, and even repositioning her head to get a better, morefortable position between this valley that only a single man in this world could fully enjoy.
N Shur maintained the appearance of her feline lineage, albeit she now had white hair and fur with golden eyes. This further entuated her feisty and untamed beauty. While she had be human after receiving the blessings of the three Daos, her bloodline lineage was still present in her blood, and she had decidedly re-cultivated with a modified True Dragon Transmutation Method and obtained an ancient feline bloodline that was purified by Wei Wuyin.
She could be considered a human-beast hybrid and consciously kept her appearance as a feline with cat ears, fangs, and a slender tail. She liked this form the best. Moreover, her foundation of cultivation was no longer wed. The path to the Mystic Ascendant Realm would be considerably easier for her after having her initial race turned from a beastwoman to a human and then a proper hybrid.
Talking to the leg-dangling N Shur was Qin Rui. She wore a face veil and modest white robes that hid her slender figure. While she was technically Qing Qiumu''s ancestor, she wasn''t particrly close with Qing Qiumu. She instead had much closer rtions with N Shur and Da Shan who were known figures in the Myriad Monarch Sect.
Beside them were the others from the Eternal Monarch Sect, including Yao Zhen, Zen, Ji Changkong, Tuo Bihan, and some other figures from the Myriad Monarch Sect. They seemed to be catching up after all the years. They had a lot to talk about, especially Yao Zhen who kept talking about his son who was embarrassed as he was forced to stand next to him. Tuo Bihan conspicuously carried arge object on his back that was wrapped in white bandages, and his eyes had a steely look to it as if he had been tempered by trials and tribtions.
There were a few that rotated groups. Tuo Bihan, Qin Rui, and Wu Baozhai often swapped spots or gathered together as a trio to talk. There was little who didn''t know that Tuo Bihan treated Qin Rui like a daughter. Tuo Bihan was all smiles after learning that Qin Rui hadn''t yet closed to deal with Wei Wuyin, especially after the announcements of Xue Yifei''s fiancée status and Yue Songli''s eptance. Thetter had openly said to the world that she was Wei Wuyin''s with the brazenness of a goddess, and he properly replied to her desire!
If only Qin Rui was less reserved. Tuo Bihan could only sigh again and again. But who could know of Qin Rui''s frustration? She had long since considered herself Wei Wuyin''s woman. If only he said anything... However, the higher he rose, the greater he became, the more unsure she was about his feelings despite the past evidence such as the letter. After all, people''s feelings and intentions can change.
Whenever she thought of that, regret would swallow her thoughts for days as she cursed herself for not epting his intentions initially. She eyed Da Shan and N Shur with envy.
There were Ascendants and Chosen from the Azure-Prime Gctic Zone.
The gathering had turned into a social event as many conversed and introduced themselves.
Suddenly, slightly above the deck, a Void Portal manifested with a loud, thunderous boom that ceased all conversations. They all looked at the Void Portal.
A peerlessly handsome figure appeared alongside a dark-haired young woman and a great white-winged steed. The sight caused hearts to pound! They slowly floated onto the deck amidst the silence.
Wei Wuyin!
"Your Majesty!" The Ascendants hurriedly gave a proper salute.
"Lord Wei!" The three Alchemic Knights kneeled.
"World-Saint Neo-Dawn!" Luo Ning bowed as the other Alchemists among the Ascendants and those who weren''t eximed with deep reverence.
"Ascendant Emperor Wei," those like Na Xinyi and the Chosen from the Azure-Prime Gctic Zone greeted passionately with his empirical title.
"Good, you''re all here." Wei Wuyin was satisfied with Wu Yu''s efforts. Not a single person was missing.
Oh, wait.
While Wu Yu had done his job, Wei Wuyin was cking. Wei Wuyin waved his hand to the side. A Void Portal was conjured.
A frustrated voice resounded from within. "Took you long enough. You love taking your time with things! Gosh!" It drew everyone''s attention. A heart-stopping figure emerged from the Void Portal. Exceedingly attractive and fantastically well-endowed as a woman, her very appearance made it difficult for other women to not conjure envious thoughts.
Yue Songli walked out with a long-sleeved hanfu that wrapped around her irresistibly huggable waist. Her two fleshy, proudful, heaven-blessed, twin mountains were lifted perfectly, and while her clothing was modest, her immortal-like, almost wlessly sculpted beauty and sensual bodily curves bestowed a type of undeniable seduction. With her light makeup and meticulously styled hair, she was spectacr, and a true feast for the eyes and soul.
Many were left breathless.
Others were left breathing heavily.
Only a few pouted with discontent.
Da Shan was taken aback, subconsciously looking down at her chest.
When she fully left the Void Portal and saw all the figures on the boat, Yue Songli was left speechless.
From afar, a pristinely white voidship was approaching with Cao Cuifen staring out into the Dark Void with narrowed eyes. The elderly man with one arm frowned and Young Master Shang, who was drinking, paused as wine dripped onto his robes.
Who was this woman? Holy...
