Chapter 2559
Over the past two months, the Azure Sovereign Gate members watched the excitement when they wanted to, and entertained themselves when they did not. Meanwhile, Zhu Yanyi’s cultivation broke through again, reaching the late stage of the Immortal Emperor realm.
Yan Aohan was not surprised by Zhu Yanyi’s rapid progress. After all, during her fifty years of pregnancy, her mental state had broken through many times.
Of course, whenever they had time, the couple would hide in the Ruyi Space to play with Little Mianmian.
Little Mianmian had never drunk milk since birth; she only consumed spiritual liquid. However, after drinking it, she needed Yan Aohan or Zhu Yanyi to help guide the energy through her body. Raising a child was truly not easy, but fortunately, they only planned to raise this one biological child.
Actually, over this period, Zhu Yanyi had started to miss Mengbao. However, the current situation made it inconvenient to see her. Still, they sent her a message to let her know she had become a big brother.
Currently, most affairs in the Yan Palace of the Underworld were handled by Mengbao. Looking at the stack of documents on his desk, Mengbao sighed and continued working. There was no other way; who else could he blame but his irresponsible parents? However, Little Mianmian’s birth was good news for him. At least, he had a younger sister now.
Although he had not met his sister yet, he needed to prepare things for her.
Mengbao had specially created a children’s playground in the Yan Palace, waiting for her sister’s arrival so she could play.
Mengbao did not tell Yan Aohan and Zhu Yanyi about this. However, even if they knew, they would certainly approve of her actions.
“After the Heavenly Luck Competition ends, should we return to the Underworld first?” Zhu Yanyi asked Yan Aohan.
Yan Aohan shook his head slightly. “Go to the Nine Heavens Immortal Pool first. You and your daughter go to the Immortal Pool. After you come out, we will return to the Underworld.”
Yan Aohan thought for a moment and added, “You are already at the late stage of the Immortal Emperor realm. Based on your cultivation and comprehension, after leaving the Immortal Pool, you should at least reach the peak of the Immortal Emperor realm. You might even enter the Immortal Venerable stage. By then, it will be about time to return to the Underworld.”
Zhu Yanyi tilted her head, looking at Yan Aohan. “Is something going to happen?”
Yan Aohan smiled. “Nothing special. It’s just that your clinic in the Underworld should start soon. Also, you should begin training doctors in the Underworld.”
Of course, many people had been doctors in life. Gu Jingtian was one of them. She had already obtained residency in the Underworld and was responsible for some medical matters. However, she was still learning about treating spirits. All of this development required Zhu Yanyi to lead.
“The Azure Sovereign Gate still has many matters.” Zhu Yanyi frowned slightly.
“Traveling between the Azure Sovereign Gate and the Underworld is convenient for you. You can leave a communication method with Zhuge Hongwen. If the Azure Sovereign Gate has major issues, he can transmit messages to you.” Yan Aohan had already considered this. “Moreover, once everything in the Underworld is normal, you will need to go to the Evil Buddha Realm.”
Yan Aohan knew that for Zhu Yanyi to become a god, she needed to enter the Evil Buddha Realm to redeem the Evil Buddha. This was her mission—the mission of a Buddha to save the world. Only by completing this mission could she become a god.
Zhu Yanyi also knew she would eventually have to go to the Evil Buddha Realm. Hearing Yan Aohan’s words, she pondered slightly. “Hmm, I also need to handle the matters of the Strategist Alliance. I plan to hand over the Strategist Alliance affairs to Xi Bei.”
Yan Aohan nodded. “Xi Bei comes from the Strategist Alliance, so he naturally should return to it.”
Zhu Yanyi nodded as well. It seemed she needed time to prepare for everything coming up.
All the sect challenges had ended, leaving only the competition between the Azure Sovereign Gate and the Five Great Sects.
One day, Jian Wuhua came to find Zhu Yanyi. “Gate Master Zhu, if you have no objections, we will start the final competition between the Azure Sovereign Gate and our Five Great Sects the day after tomorrow.”
“That’s fine.” Zhu Yanyi smiled and nodded.
Jian Wuhua said, “The matches will follow the original schedule. First, the Gate Masters’ match. Then, the disciples’ team match. The third round is the individual disciples’ match. The fourth is the intermediate players’ match. Finally, the advanced players’ match. Is that okay?”
“No problem. Let’s follow your plan.” Zhu Yanyi waved her hand, indicating she had no objections. “Our personnel will not change, so don’t worry.”
Jian Wuhua nodded. Although the Azure Sovereign Gate members had not acted much during the evil cultivator incident, Jian Wuhua had learned from the side that the Azure Sovereign Gate was not as simple as it appeared.
Seeing that the matter was settled, Jian Wuhua took his leave.
After Jian Wuhua left, Zhu Yanyi called everyone from the Azure Sovereign Gate together and informed them of the news.
“Master, we have the competition the day after tomorrow. What should we pay attention to?” Cuiwan asked Zhu Yanyi. She admired her master the most.
Zhu Yanyi smiled gently. “Follow your heart. This is what I have always told you.”
Zhu Yanyi spoke seriously. “My match with Master Zhang is not a big deal. Since it is a competition of medicine and alchemy, it will be relatively calm. However, the next four rounds each have their own characteristics. For example, the second round is the disciples’ team match. Although the Hundred Changes Hall no longer has Yao Huayinguo, they will still send the same pair of twins originally selected.”
Zhu Yanyi spoke slowly. “We who study medicine know one thing: twins, especially identical twins, grow together from the same egg, so it is very normal for them to have a telepathic connection.”
“There is a case like this. It is said that there was a pair of twin sisters with different personalities. The older sister was lively, while the younger sister was quiet. So, after graduating from university, the older sister went to live in a big city. The younger sister preferred rural life, living a simple life from sunrise to sunset, finding peace in her own way.”
Zhu Yanyi paused here. “But one night, the younger sister had a nightmare. She dreamed she was killed, and the scene was vividly clear.”
Zhu Yanyi’s tone became heavy. “That despair and pain, although just a dream, felt so real to the younger sister. Two days later, she received a notice from the police that her sister had been killed. Based on the time, it was exactly when she had the nightmare.”
Zhu Yanyi continued, “Of course, because of this nightmare, the younger sister saw the killer’s face, so she helped the police catch the murderer.”
Zhu Yanyi looked at everyone and said, “I told you this story not just to tell a story, but to let you know that twins can easily sense each other’s feelings.”
