Starting With Chaos Physique

Chapter 17 The Reincarnation of the Supreme Being of Sword Dao, the Phoenix of the Nine Heavens?

“Wow, this is the Gu Family? It’s so magnificent!”

Su Xiaoxuan couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise.

It was overwhelming.

Her eyes were almost dazzled.

It was so shocking; she had never seen anything like it before.

What caught her eyes were all the floating divine islands and palaces in the sky, scattered like stars, with clouds rising and mist swirling, grand and majestic.

Immortal mist floated like clouds, waterfalls hung upside down like ribbons, and enormous ancient beasts like mountain ranges roamed among them, their energy and blood blocking the sky.

The spiritual energy of the heavens and earth was so rich that it seemed almost liquid.

Tuoba Siyu was also deeply shocked.

This was still just the tip of the iceberg of the Changsheng Family’s foundation.

Their family and sect were nothing compared to this; they were almost like pigsties by comparison.

The servant guiding them smiled and said, “This is just the outer islands. Compared to the inner islands, this is nothing.”

“As for the divine island where the Divine Son resides, that is the true immortal realm.”

Gu Changsheng had them settled before heading to the ancestral temple to look for ancient books on fate.

Not long after, the servant led them to a vast continent, or rather, an island suspended in the air that occupied an area of over ten thousand miles, which looked just like a continent.

Immortal birds and strange beasts, divine orchids and sacred herbs, could be seen almost everywhere.

There were even bursts of spiritual energy rising from the earth, transforming into giant dragons soaring into the sky.

“The spiritual energy here is nearly ten thousand times more concentrated than outside!”

Su Xiaoxuan took a deep breath, her eyes almost popping out.

She then quietly hugged the ancient sword in her arms, finally understanding what it meant to be ‘beyond priceless’.

Forget about becoming Gu Changsheng’s follower; even the Gu family’s disciples would treat them with the utmost respect.

Living here alone, their cultivation speed would exceed all imagination.

“I’ll spread the good news back home, shocking my master and the elders, and also broaden my horizons,” she thought to herself.

Tuoba Siyu forced himself to stay calm, though cold sweat formed in his palms due to his nervousness.

“To be able to follow the Divine Son, this must be the fortune of several lifetimes.”

Soon, Gu Changsheng’s figure landed from the distance.

“Greetings, Divine Son,” the two hurriedly saluted.

Gu Changsheng waved his hand and said, “Just call me ‘Young Master’, no need to be so formal.”

“Yes, Young Master,” they both answered at the same time.

“Do you know why I chose you?” Gu Changsheng suddenly turned to Su Xiaoxuan and asked.

“This… this… because I can do the laundry and cook?” Su Xiaoxuan was taken aback, looking somewhat confused, then tried to answer.

Back in the Purple Bamboo Forest, Gu Changsheng had said this.

Gu Changsheng shook his head.

Only Tuoba Siyu seemed to have thought of something and, uncertainly, asked, “Is it because of the Sword Bone within her?”

He could tell that Su Xiaoxuan had an innate talent for the sword.

But… there were many people with sword talent; could Su Xiaoxuan be a bit special?

Gu Changsheng’s eyes flashed with an unusual expression, but he didn’t say much about it.

He had merely mentioned it earlier to observe Su Xiaoxuan’s reaction.

It seems that this silly girl is completely unaware.

He went to the ancestral temple and checked some ancient books; the sword bone contained fate marked by purple.

There are generally two possibilities:

One is a person with immense talent, favored by fate, born wise and nearly genius-like.

Clearly, Su Xiaoxuan didn’t fall into this category.

The second possibility was that she was the reincarnation of an ancient being, with her past life’s accumulated fate manifesting in this life.

So it was likely that Su Xiaoxuan was the reincarnation of a supreme sword master.

It was just unclear when her memories would awaken.

“You two can settle here on the island for now. In a few days, for the hunting conference, I will take you along.”

Gu Changsheng then gave them this instruction, not lingering too much on the matter.

Su Xiaoxuan paused and then asked blankly, “Young Master, do you not need me to wash clothes or cook for you?”

As soon as she said it, she realized it might not have been appropriate but couldn’t take it back.

Gu Changsheng, however, didn’t mind, and he chuckled, “Do you think I need that?”

Su Xiaoxuan immediately shook her head frantically.

“Young Master, should we not have some kind of restriction placed on us? What if we betray you later…”

Tuoba Siyu, thinking of other matters, couldn’t help but ask.

After all, the first thing immortal inheritances did when accepting followers was to place an unbreakable restriction in their sea of consciousness to prevent betrayal.

However, Gu Changsheng casually interrupted him, smiling lightly, “I don’t think you would dare. Besides, I believe you won’t.”

It was straightforward and simple.

Tuoba Siyu gave an inward bitter smile.

It really hit the nail on the head.

But even though Gu Changsheng didn’t place any restrictions, the family elders would still take action if necessary.

So the two of them still willingly released their sea of consciousness.

“Troublesome,” Gu Changsheng shook his head and casually placed two restrictions in.

Meanwhile, Chu Yaoyue, who had left the Purple Bamboo Forest, was feeling a little dazed.

She had come with great confidence, thinking that following the Divine Son would be an easy matter and that solving the issues with the Jingyang Empire would be simple.

But now, not only had she lost face, she had also lost the opportunity.

“This Divine Son of the Gu family is too much; how could he say that the Ninth Princess is not as good as those two…”

One of her servants was still angrily complaining.

She had witnessed the scene and was also extremely upset and wronged by how the Divine Son treated the princess.

The princess was, after all, a proud daughter of heaven, a phoenix of the Nine Heavens, with countless young heroes vying for her attention.

How could she tolerate such insult?

At this moment, a guard hurriedly ran over, panic on his face, and said with a trembling voice, “Ninth Princess, something terrible has happened. News has come from Jingyang that the Chi Li Ancient Kingdom launched a surprise attack last night. Most of Jingyang’s territory has fallen, and General Wang was captured…”

“…If no other forces come to their aid, the Jingyang Empire may not last much longer.”

Chu Yaoyue’s face turned pale in an instant.@@novelbin@@
