Chapter 2607: If Only I Had
by the force of the explosion. He traveled a considerable distance in the void before coming to a stop.And from the moment that punch was thrown, Fang Yu's gaze never left Mie Ling.Within the gaze of...Shang Xuantian Zun, that was his former title!
Once, this name was a source of glory and unmatched pride for him!
Since ascending and leaving Earth, so many years have passed... He has experienced countless setbacks and blows.
The title Shangxuan Tianzun, he himself had almost forgotten it, let alone others knowing about it.
After his ascension, his name was no longer mentioned, he was just a cultivator named Fei Qi.
He knew that the upper echelons were teeming with powerful masters, each a hidden dragon waiting to be unleashed. Therefore, he kept a low profile and practiced diligently, biding his time.
Finally, he got a second chance to ascend, arriving on the Yunmù Continent.
I thought this was the end, the fairyland he imagined.
Little did he expect, however, that he would be met with unprecedented setbacks.
On the Yunyun Continent, this cultivator who had reached the Immortal Ascension Realm was no better than a pig or dog, reduced to being a slave!
The so-called dignity, trampled underfoot and shattered into dust.
Before any of the tribes, he didn't even have the right to stand and speak. He could only kneel on the ground, waiting anxiously for their judgment!
He... from a human prodigy, became a mere slave!
His mentality is completely different from when he was known as the Xuan Tian Zun back then!
Therefore, hearing the name again now, there was only a lag and shock on his face.
Memories buried deep in my mind for years are surging and swirling at this moment.
“You, you…” Fei Qi widened his eyes, looking at Fang Yu in front of him, speechless.
"Back then, when you ascended, it caused quite a stir in the cultivation world," Fang Yu said. "Two thousand five hundred years after your ascension, I met a trace of your will on Earth and fought with it, even disabling it. At the time, your will threatened to confront me with your true self in the future and let me see your true power."
Hearing this, Fei Qi recalled the scene of his ascension on Earth.
He was so full of vigor and arrogance back then!
Throughout the entire cultivation world, how many cultivators regard him as a role model, as a goal!
How I wish everything could have stayed as it was.
He wouldn't have suffered so much, endured so many blows and setbacks if he had ascended.
If he could go back in time, he definitely wouldn't choose to ascend and leave Earth!
Even if Earth's cultivation resources were far less abundant than those in the upper realms, even if Earth was in a lower realm, he would be willing to stay there forever!
However, there's no going back.
"What's wrong" Fang Yu looked at Fei Qi, narrowing his eyes. "Have you already forgotten what happened on Earth back then"
Fei Qi came to his senses and looked up at Fang Yu, his eyes reddening.
His body trembled slightly, especially his hands, which shook violently.
Fang Yu saw that Fei Qi still had many wounds on his body that hadn't healed, and his whole body was covered in blood.
It is easy to imagine what kind of treatment he had endured before.
Fang Yu frowned and looked at Wang Tian, who was smiling behind him, and said coldly: "Untie all the restraints on him."
"...Yes! Yes!" Wang Tian's expression changed, and he immediately activated a specific spell to release Fei Qi from his bonds.
"Whoosh!"
Fei Qi's body flashed with a light, and the binding force completely dissipated.
Now, he relaxed his entire body and almost collapsed to the ground.
For so long had he been bound, that he had even forgotten the very essence of his own spirit.
"Find me a quiet place, I need to talk to him," Fang Yu said to Wang Tian again.
“Alright, little one, I’ll lead you there.” Wang Tian replied.
Within this slave camp, Wang Tian was the most terrifying being to all humans, like a nightmare.
But this guy, in front of Fang Yu... was trembling with fear, behaving with utmost respect.
...and from Fang Yu's words, it seemed like he was also a cultivator who had ascended from Earth! ...
And, he ascended even after him!
Here is a human cultivator, in a place like the Yunmù Continent, actually being treated with respect by someone like Wang Tianshi...
However, one can see a mark unique to the Tian Sha clan on Fang Yu's forehead... Could it be that Fang Yu is not from the Human race
If it weren't for being human, how could it possibly know his name and specifically mention Earth!
Fei Qi's mind went blank.
"Follow me." Fang Yu said to Fei Qi.
"...Yes!" Fei Qi replied.
Then, Wang Tian shi brought Fang Yu and Fei Qi back to the attic room.
Then, he hurried back to the yard and settled accounts with Zhixi.
……
"Don't doubt it, I'm from Earth and a human cultivator." Fang Yu looked at Fei Qi who seemed bewildered, "I'm currently disguised as a member of the Tiansha clan."
Fei Qi stood up, bending his knees, about to kneel before Fang Yu.
Fang Yu raised his hand and released a burst of energy, stopping Fei Qi from doing so.
"What are you doing" Fang Yu narrowed his eyes.
"In, I, the one below, would like to thank your great kindness." Fei Qi said cautiously.
This is a habit he developed after his ascension.
I've knelt so much, I'm numb.
Facing such a great benefactor as Fang Yu, he had no other way to express his gratitude but to kneel down.
“Although I haven't met your true form, I have interacted with your will and it's clear... you were completely different back then. You were still very confident.” Fang Yu said, “I know that after ascending, you might have encountered many things that changed your personality. But since we all ascended from Earth and had the緣 to interact before… perhaps we can return to our states when we were on Earth. That would make communication more convenient, Supreme Xuan Tian.”
Fei Qi sat back down in his chair, looked at Fang Yu, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke: "My given name is Fei Qi. The title Shang Xuan Tianzun... hasn't been used for a long time."
"No matter what you call yourself, next... tell me about your experiences after you ascended, in general." Fang Yu said seriously. "Your experience is very important to me."
Fei Qi sat in the chair, taking a deep breath.
The memories after his ascension weren't something he found worth reminiscing about.
But now, since Fang Yu requested it, he had to answer properly.
After a moment's thought and some organization, Fei Qi began to speak, slowly recounting the series of events he had experienced after leaving Earth.
Fang Yu sat opposite, listening quietly.
……
In the courtyard.
Wang Tian finished counting the people and came before Zhixi, saying: “Your Holiness, there are a total of one hundred and twelve human slaves here. Their cultivation levels vary greatly. I have calculated the price at one thousand original coins per person... So Your Holiness, the total cost here is 112,000 original coins.”
When it came to the deal, Wang Tian was very clear and confident in his words.
Zhixi looked at Wang Tian, then glanced back at the group of slaves. Her brow furrowed as she said, "I'll give you a maximum of 100,000 yuan."
"I'm afraid not…" Wang Tian said with a difficult expression.deities bring down their punishment, and let this madman die instantly…"A wave of curses erupted in the square.Many devotees knelt down and prayed to the deities for divine punishment upon Fang Yu.At...
