The Ethereal Domains

Chapter 484: Who?

Who? . . .

"Madam Wan-Er? Madam Xiu-Er? What brings you to me today?" Cha Eun Xiao turned to the two ladies, his gaze fixed upon them.

Wan-Er and Xiu-Er found themselves in a quandary. They struggled to find the words.

They genuinely didn't know how to ask.

After all, they were adversaries of Feng Monarch. Feng Zhiling and Master Bai had been bitter rivals, with opposing goals and beliefs. The House of the Chaotic Storms had long held the upper hand, and Feng Monarch had been powerless to resist.

Watching Feng Monarch's struggles had sometimes brought them satisfaction.

However, the situation had changed. While they still occupied a higher position, they now needed to seek a significant favor from him. There was no one else in the universe who could provide what they required, except for this man.

Their previous plans had been completely upended, and they had to abandon them. What they had intended to do earlier now seemed like a farce compared to the current circumstances.

In this farce, they had unwittingly antagonized a man they shouldn't have crossed paths with. Now, this very man was their only hope.

As the saying goes, "Things can change drastically in thirty years." This time, it hadn't even been thirty years for such a significant transformation.

After a moment, Wan-Er mustered a smile and said, "Feng Monarch, don't trouble yourself with it. We are here today for..."

She hesitated, her intentions clear. She had come to ask for help, but she struggled to find the words.

For a long time, the House of the Chaotic Storms had never had to seek assistance.

"What should I say? How should I phrase it? I... I don't have the experience!" she pondered.

Ling Wuxie noticed something and let out a hearty laugh. He spoke with enthusiasm, "Come on now. You two have known each other for a while. I'm the stranger here. I happen to have a great fondness for Feng Monarch and would like to become friends with both of you. Allow me to introduce myself. I am Ling Wuxie."

Cha Eun Xiao smiled and replied, "I am honored, but... Brother Ling, please don't take offense, but I can't seem to recall your name. It's entirely my own ignorance. I should have known of you."

Ling Wuxie's mouth twitched, and he burst into laughter. "No offense taken at all. It would be strange if you had heard of me. You are from down here, and I'm from up there. Hahahaha..."

The two ladies were left speechless once more.

They looked at Lord Ling, the shameless showoff. For the first time, they felt that perhaps having someone as audacious as him around might be a good thing. His shamelessness could break through an impasse when needed.

An impasse meant nothing to Lord Ling, who was brazen and unashamed.

"Down here? Up there..." Cha Eun Xiao's face twitched as he considered the implications. "Oh, Brother Ling, you are from the Human Realm Upon Heavens. My respects."

Ling Wuxie was taken aback. He widened his eyes, clapped his hand on the chair, and gave a thumbs-up. "Brother Feng, you're a truly wise and kind-hearted individual. We both know there are hardly any in this world who are aware of the Human Realm Upon Heavens..."

Ling Wuxie was genuinely astonished.

The Human Realm Upon Heavens stood several levels above the Land of Han-Yang. Natives of the Land of Han-Yang shouldn't have knowledge of it.

"How does Feng Monarch know about it? Does he have a special background?!" Ling Wuxie wondered.

Ling Wuxie's unexpected remark left Cha Eun Xiao and the two ladies dumbfounded. [What's going on with Ling Wuxie? Can he even speak properly? A wise man with a pretty heart? Is that even an appropriate expression?]

Wan and Xiu couldn't help but ponder the situation further. [Ling Wuxie isn't really 'Wuxie' at all. He's quite cunning. What he said made Feng Zhiling sound quite ordinary, even though he's from the lower realm!]

Cha Eun Xiao thought for a moment, and while thinking about Su Yeyue's charming face, he sighed. "It's a coincidence. I have a friend who was taken away by a master cultivator to the Human Realm Upon Heavens."

Ling Wuxie raised an eyebrow in surprise. "Hmm? A master cultivator took her away?"

Cha Eun Xiao nodded, his expression tinged with sadness. "Yes, my friend became the disciple of that master cultivator and must be cultivating in the Human Realm Upon Heavens now."

Ling Wuxie, curious about who could travel between the realms like himself, had to inquire further. He had expended considerable effort to reach the Land of Han-Yang through a covert method, and bringing someone back was an entirely different challenge. However, only a select few individuals possessed that capability. Ling Wuxie couldn't fathom these individuals coming to the lower realm.

He contemplated for a moment and replied with uncertainty, "Name? The master cultivator said... She mentioned her name was something like Meng Huaiqing."

Ling Wuxie was visibly stunned by the name. He stared at Cha Eun Xiao in disbelief, his mouth agape. He was utterly taken aback.

The name had sent shockwaves through him. "Meng Huaiqing... What... Meng Huaiqing?" he mumbled in astonishment.

Ling Wuxie was left utterly flabbergasted by the name. [This is... this is incredible!]

[My goodness... that's the Heavenly Queen!]

[It's utterly mind-boggling!]

[Cha Eun Xiao's friend became the disciple of the Heavenly Queen of the Human Realm Upon Heavens?]

Ling Wuxie was left feeling dizzy and overwhelmed. He couldn't believe that such a thing had truly occurred. Yet, how else would Cha Eun Xiao know the name Meng Huaiqing if it weren't true?

Meng Huaiqing of the Human Realm Upon Heavens!

[Wait! Meng Huaiqing is that man's mother!!]

[What on earth! This is groundbreaking news! I'm flabbergasted!]

Wan-Er and Xiu-Er were equally shocked. [Isn't she the Master's mother...]
