Chapter 481 Showing Lin Xingya His Minor World
As the weight of the Dao Sovereign Pellet settled in Lin Xingya's palm, she felt a surge of anticipation coursing through her veins. This was her ticket to freedom, her chance to break free from the chains of her political marriage and forge her own destiny.
'Thank you, Wang Jian,' she thought gratefully, her heart brimming with elation.
As she turned to face Lin Fei, his extended Imperial Sovereign Pellet dangling in the air, she couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt. 'I know he put his heart and soul into crafting that pellet, but I can't accept it. Not when my future hangs in the balance.'
Lin Fei's forced smile did little to mask the disappointment in his eyes as Lin Xingya gently declined his offering.
'Rejected... again,' he thought bitterly, his fists clenched at his sides. 'But I won't let this setback deter me. Wang Jian will pay for stealing her favor.'
With a steely resolve, Lin Fei slipped away, his mind churning with thoughts of vengeance. 'It's time to put an end to this charade once and for all.'
With Lin Fei storming off, leaving behind an aura of simmering anger, Lin Xingya turned her attention to Wang Jian, her curiosity piqued.
"Who are you, really?" she asked, her eyes searching his face for answers. "Your skills in array formations and alchemy are extraordinary. You can't be just a nobody."
Wang Jian met her gaze with a knowing smile, his eyes twinkling with a hint of mystery. "Ah, but you see, appearances can be deceiving," he replied cryptically. "I may not be famous, but I do have my secrets."
Lin Xingya arched an eyebrow, intrigued. "Secrets?"
Wang Jian glanced at her trio of maids discreetly, his meaning clear.
Sensing his meaning, Lin Xingya turned to her loyal companions. "Please, give us a moment alone," she instructed, her tone leaving no room for argument.
With a nod, the maids departed, their trust in Wang Jian evident in their obedient demeanor.
Alone at last, Lin Xingya regarded Wang Jian with renewed interest, her curiosity burning brighter than ever. "Tell me," she urged, her voice barely above a whisper, "what secret do you hold?"
Once they were alone, Wang Jian leaned in, his voice barely above a whisper. "I come from a humble background, ascending from a lower realm to this world," he confessed, his words carrying a weight of truth.
Lin Xingya's eyes widened in astonishment. "You ascended? But how..."
Wang Jian held up a hand, silencing her questions. "That is a story for another time. For now, just know that my insights in skill come from a place far beyond the reach of this realm."
Lin Xingya's mind whirled with a thousand questions, but she held her tongue, sensing the gravity of Wang Jian's revelation. 'An ascendant... such beings are rare, even mystical and their talent is considered extremely high. But here he stands before me, a living testament.'
As the realization sank in, Lin Xingya couldn't help but feel a newfound respect for Wang Jian. His humble demeanor belied a wealth of experience and knowledge beyond her wildest dreams.
"I understand," she said finally, a sense of awe coloring her voice. "Thank you for sharing your secret with me, Wang Jian. You have my trust."
Wang Jian nodded, a sense of camaraderie passing between them, "Alright."
Wang Jian then suddenly asked, "Do you want to see my world?"
As Wang Jian's invitation hung in the air, Lin Xingya's curiosity piqued. 'His world? What could he possibly mean?' Her mind buzzed with questions, her gaze fixed on Wang Jian with a mixture of surprise and intrigue. "Your world? What do you mean?" she asked.
With a calm demeanor, Wang Jian explained his offer, his voice steady and reassuring. "I have a minor world fused with my Divine Soul," he began, his eyes meeting hers with unwavering certainty. "I can take you there, if you wish to see it. But you mustn't resist. It could harm both of us."
Lin Xingya's eyes widened with astonishment. 'A minor world... fused with his Divine Soul? Such power...'
With a hesitant nod, Lin Xingya acquiesced, her heart pounding with a mixture of excitement and trepidation. 'This could be the opportunity of a lifetime.'
As Wang Jian's touch brushed against her forehead, a surge of energy enveloped her, pulling her into the depths of the unknown. In the blink of an eye, they vanished from the mortal realm, transported into the boundless expanse of Wang Jian's minor world—the Sky Martial Continent.
As the unfamiliar landscape unfolded before her eyes, Lin Xingya's breath caught in her throat. 'This is... breathtaking.'
Wang Jian led her through the majestic realm, his presence towering like a god among mortals. Lin Xingya couldn't help but feel a sense of awe wash over her as they traversed the sprawling landscape.
"This is my world," Wang Jian proclaimed proudly, his voice echoing across the heavens. "Here, I am the true god, omniscient and omnipotent."
Lin Xingya's gaze swept over the landscape, taking in the grandeur of Wang Jian's domain. Everywhere she looked, his statues loomed tall and imposing, a testament to his legendary status.
As they traversed the continent, Lin Xingya couldn't help but marvel at the statues erected in Wang Jian's honor, each one a testament to his legendary status. "You truly are revered here," she remarked, awe coloring her voice.
Wang Jian chuckled modestly, though a glint of pride sparkled in his eyes. "It is the least I deserve," he replied with a wink.
Their journey took them to bustling taverns where bards sang songs of Wang Jian's heroism, their voices echoing through the night air. Lin Xingya found herself swept up in the atmosphere, her heart swelling with admiration for her enigmatic companion.
But it was their visit to the Northern States that left the greatest impression on Lin Xingya. Here, amidst the grandeur of Wang Jian's ancestral home, she was introduced to his sprawling family—wives, concubines, mistresses, and even his mother, Bai Liqin.
"Meet my family," Wang Jian said with a warm smile, gesturing towards the gathered multitude. "These are the people who have supported me throughout my journey."
Lin Xingya greeted each member of Wang Jian's family with humility, her eyes widening in surprise at the diversity of relationships he maintained. 'So many women...'
As she conversed with the women of Wang Jian's family, she listened intently to their tales of his exploits, each story more incredible than the last. 'He united different races? Brought harmony to the world?'
Lin Xingya couldn't help but feel a newfound respect for Wang Jian, his actions transcending mere legend to become the stuff of myth. In his world, he was more than just a man—he was a beacon of hope and unity, a guiding light in a world plagued by strife.
As they basked in the warmth of Wang Jian's family, Lin Xingya knew that she had been granted a rare glimpse into the heart of greatness.
Under the ethereal glow of the illusionary moon, Wang Jian and Lin Xingya stood side by side, the soft light casting a gentle radiance upon their faces. The beauty of the scene was mesmerizing, the tranquility of the night wrapping around them like a comforting embrace.
"It's remarkable, isn't it?" Wang Jian began, breaking the silence with a thoughtful tone. "To see all the races working together, helping each other despite their differences."
Lin Xingya nodded in agreement, her eyes tracing the delicate patterns of light dancing across the night sky. "I never imagined such cooperation was possible," she admitted, her voice tinged with awe. "But witnessing it firsthand... it's truly eye-opening."
As Wang Jian closed the distance between them, Lin Xingya's heart fluttered with anticipation. His gaze locked with hers, an intensity burning in his eyes as he spoke of his aspirations for the Upper Realm. "I want to bring this unity to our world," he confessed, his voice soft yet resolute. "But I know I can't do it alone. I need power, yes, but more importantly, I need allies who share my vision."
Lin Xingya's breath caught in her throat, her pulse quickening with a mixture of excitement and determination. "And you want me to be one of those allies," she surmised, her voice barely above a whisper.
Wang Jian's smile was gentle yet filled with hope as he nodded. "Yes, Lin Xingya. I believe in you. Together, we can make a difference."
With a sense of purpose burning within her, Lin Xingya returned his smile, her resolve firm. "I will do everything in my power to help you," she vowed, her voice ringing with conviction.
With a nod of gratitude, Wang Jian reached out, his touch enveloping Lin Xingya in a warm embrace of divine energy. In an instant, they were transported back to the Upper Realm, the familiar surroundings greeting them like an old friend.
As Lin Xingya glanced around, she realized that not much time had passed since their departure. "How is this possible?" she asked, her brow furrowing in confusion.
Wang Jian chuckled softly, his eyes twinkling with amusement. "Time in my minor world flows differently," he explained casually. "What may seem like hours there, is only minutes here."
Relief washed over Lin Xingya as she realized she wouldn't have to explain her absence to her maids. With a grateful smile, she turned to Wang Jian, her heart filled with gratitude. "Thank you," she said sincerely, her eyes reflecting the depth of her appreciation.
Wang Jian's smile widened, his gaze filled with warmth. "No thanks necessary, Lin Xingya. We are allies now, bound by a shared purpose."
