I alone am the Honoured One! - Chapter 257

Chapter 257: To the seas!
“Then show me the proof, take me there now and show me those patterns.”

-_- Not wanting to waste his time on her, Zhao Tian spoke pointing his finger in a direction “Fly toward this direction and you will soon reach my country. Continue flying and after a while, you will reach the ocean.”

“Search inside the ocean and you will find large black boxes with purple patterns like on your necklace.”

“And by the way, hide your presence and don’t interact with normal people as they don’t know cultivation and cultivators exist.”

Huh? Rui Lian just blinked her eyes and looking at her clueless face Zhao Tian asked “What?”

The woman spoke with a sigh “I know it’s too much to ask… but I was hoping you could help me navigate those boxes.”

“As a token of gratitude, you can have this,” she said as two glimmering astral stones appeared in her hand.

“These are Divine Astral stones. This is very valuable and only available in the Astral Realm.”

Zhao Tian was not at all impressed, as he has a shit ton of these Divine Astral stones in his artifact. Heck, he is using these stones to craft rings for his women.

But then she shook her head “No, I should already give you one for saving my life. Here, you can have this.” she said, handing one of the Divine Astral stones.

But Zhao Tian didn’t extend his hand and Rui Lian looked at his face and noticed he was not impressed. “This is not fake, this is really a Divine Astral stone.”

These are the divine astral stones her ‘sister’ managed to steal from the Astral Realm when she went there last time for a tournament.

With a shake of his head, Zhao Tian spoke “Forget it, I will take you there by myself.”

A faint smile appeared on her stoic face and she nodded her head “Thank you.”

“Wait for a while.” He said walking past her into the room.

As he left, Rui Lian glimpsed at the purple necklace on her hand “Sealing the Eldritchfiends? No way…”

…

Zhao Tian came out of Ning Xue’s bedroom and walked to the nearby room.

“Aunt Zuiye.” Knocking on the door, he called her.

“Tian? wait a minute.” He heard her voice from inside and a little later, Ning Zuiye opened the door wearing a t-shirt and pants.

“Tian, just thirty minutes. I will get ready and we can go out for sightseeing.” She said with a smile on her face.

Zhao Tian chuckled and spoke “About that, wait for about… three hours. I will come back and we can go.”

Hm? Ning Zuiye raised an eyebrow and gently hit his stomach “Yesterday, you were busy… today too? What jobs do you have here in Zhenzhu?”

As she again tried to hit him, Zhao Tian grabbed her hand and pulled her into his arms, a teasing glint in his eyes.

Feeling his strong arms around her waist, Ning Zuiye rolled her eyes and pinched his cheek playfully.

“Tell me.. are you secretly having any woman here in Zhenzhu?”

Zhao Tian nodded his head “Well, I do have some women here in Zhenzhu.”

Some women? Ning Zuiye was startled but then she shook her head helplessly “Does Sister Xue know about this? She was really angry when I got close to you like this last time.” she asked in a worried tone.

Zhao Tian gave a nod “Don’t worry, she knows that I have many women.”

“And… she didn’t say anything?” Ning Zuiye asked in surprise.

“Hm… she was jealous.”

Ning Zuiye burst into laughter hearing this “Haha, That’s more like her.”

Looking at her laughing, Zhao Tian’s eyes softened and he gently raised his hand, tugging a strand of her hair affectionately behind her ear.

Seeing his affectionate gesture, Ning Zuiye smiled teasingly “You brat, are you also trying to woo me too?”

Zhao Tian chuckled upon hearing her remark “Of course, who doesn’t want this beautiful woman?” he asked, his hand on her waist tightening.

Ning Zuiye raised her arms, cupping both of his cheeks within her palms, and shook his head “As always, you and your sweet tongue.”

Zhao Tian just smiled and Ning Zuiye spoke “Go, go and quickly come back… so we can go to the sightseeing.”

Zhao Tian nodded his head, retracting his hand from her waist.

Looking at the back of Zhao Tian, Ning Zuiye chuckled to herself, “What a lovely guy, I am sure I would have fallen for him if I was young. Haha…”

(A/n: It is never too late…. to fall in love.)

…

Zhao Tian walked to the balcony and saw Rui Lian waiting for him. As he approached her, Rui Lian spoke “Shall we go?”

Zhao Tian nodded his head and dashed into the air before uttering “Follow me.”

*swoosh* Zhao Tian flew through the sky and Rui Lian calmly followed him.

As they crossed the Astral Beast forest, they soon reached the country and Rui Lian cast a quick glance at the cities and vehicles that were running on the ground.

Zhao Tian noticed her reaction and saw that she was not that surprised. Rui Liam muttered, “The air here is so polluted.. How do people even breathe here?”

Zhao Tian smiled wryly “Here, there is no astral energy and people use different sources of energy… so it got polluted.” He began to explain briefly about human civilization.

Rui Lian squinted her eyes “We mostly use Astral stones and beast stones for energy. The flying ark from which I came was also run by this astral energy derived from astral stone.”

Zhao Tian nodded his head as he heard from Xia Shenyi that in some high stars, the technology is advanced and the Elven star is the most advanced.

*fwoosh* They quickly reached the seas and Zhao Tian spoke “Sense if there are any back boxes buried deep within the ocean.”

Rui Lian is a woman with the cultivation of the Empyreal realm so she can scan for more kilometers and detect them easily.

A frown creased her eyebrows and she quickly dashed towards a certain part of the ocean and raised her hand.

*thrisssh* Pushing away the sea water, an enormous black box with many purple engravings appeared out from the ocean.

H-Huh? Looking at the intricate engravings, Liu Rian was shocked to the core “These are the same patterns.”
