Chapter 2175: Leaving White Hell “C-Congratulations on regaining your freedom, Lord Shiva!” After a brief moment of silence, Mu Hanyan snapped out of her daze and spoke loudly. Shiva nodded and said, “The White Hell Barbarian Tribe has fulfilled their duties well. I shall bestow upon your tribe a fitting reward before my departure.” Meanwhile, inside Yuan’s head— “Young Master! You’re okay!” Feng Yuxiang’s worried voice resounded. “Feng Feng? What happened to you?” Yuan asked. “That’s what I wanted to ask! Our connection with you severed the moment you entered that cavern! However, we were obviously still within your Dantian.” After Yuan entered Shiva’s Hell, their connection severed, so they’d spent the last three years in the dark. “Did you try leaving?” Yuan then asked. “I did, but there was a mysterious force that kept us from leaving your Dantian, almost like we were sealed inside a prison.” “Is that so… Anyway, I’m fine. I’ll explain everything to you later,” said Yuan. Sometime later, Yuan and the others returned to the White Hell Barbarian Tribe’s settlement. Mu Hanyan gathered every member of the tribe to greet Shiva. “We greet Lord Shiva!” Shiva, who was in control of Mu Xuelian’s body, proceeded to bless every member of the tribe with her powers, instantly improving their physiques and even increasing their cultivation by an entire level directly. Once everything was done, Yuan approached one of the members and asked, “Do you know what happened to Yaoqin?” “Ah, you mean the woman who was cultivating here? She left a month ago, but she also left behind something for you.” The tribe member went inside the building where Yaoqin had cultivated and grabbed the items left behind by Yaoqin before handing them to Yuan. “Thank you.” Yaoqin had left behind a note and a medallion with her name on it. [Unfortunately, I was unable to see you again before I left. However, if you are ever near the Divine Essence Monastery, please visit me so that I can properly repay the debt I owe you for saving my life. Signed Yaoqin.] “The Divine Essence Monastery, huh? That’s in the Ninth Heaven. I was going to visit that place one day, anyway.” Yuan stored the note and Yaoqin’s medallion inside his spatial ring. “Yingzhe, Lord Shiva has called for you,” Mu Hanyan suddenly approached him and said. “Call me Yuan. I am no longer Tian Yingzhe,” he said. “Alright…” Yuan followed Mu Hanyan to another building, where Chief Mu and Mu Xuelian were present. “You’re leaving soon, right? Lord Shiva asked what your plans are afterward,” Mu Xuelian said. “The Primordial Realm,” he calmly responded. “What?” Mu Hanyan and Chief Mu stared at him with wide eyes. Although they have spent most of their lives within White Hell, even they were aware of the notoriety behind the Primordial Realm. “That place where countless dangerous criminals are imprisoned? Why are you going there?” Mu Hanyan couldn’t help but ask. “I have some business there, that’s all.” Yuan looked at Mu Xuelian and said, “I know you want to follow me, but if you don’t want to go there, you can wait here until I return from the Primordial Realm.” However, Mu Xuelian shook her head and said, “No, I will follow you.” Yuan looked at Chief Mu and asked, “Did your daughter tell you about her plans to follow me?” Chief Mu silently nodded. “Nothing to say?” “What is there to say? She may be my daughter, but she’s also Lord Shiva’s vessel right now. I do not have the authority to question her decision.” Mu Hanyan then said, “Honestly, I was already planning on letting Xuelian leave White Hell. Do you remember our agreement? I was going to ask you to let her follow you.” “I had a feeling it would be something like that, but it’s pretty shameless of you to demand anything when you tricked me,” Yuan said, his eyes slightly narrowed. Mu Hanyan faced him and apologetically bowed her head, “I’m sorry. If you wish to punish me, I will accept any punishment you may have for me.” “Forget it. Considering our past, I’ll forgive you.” “Thank you…” “When are you going to leave?” Mu Xuelian asked. “Right now, but I can wait for you if you need some time to prepare,” he said. “Then give me a few hours to say goodbye to my tribe.” Yuan nodded. Sometime later, Mu Xuelian left to say her goodbye to the rest of the tribe. “Have you reunited with that mischievous little girl yet?” Mu Hanyan suddenly asked Yuan. “Who?” Yuan asked with a puzzled face. “You know… that little girl you brought everywhere as Yingzhe. The one who was constantly getting into trouble and required our saving. I think her surname was Xu…” “Xu Jiaqi? Yes, I have already met her. Why do you ask?” “How is she doing these days? I haven’t left White Hell since your disappearance.” “She’s currently a leading figure of Celestial Overlords,” said Yuan. “I see… Give her my regards the next time you see her again.” “I will.” A nostalgic smile tugged at Mu Hanyan’s lips as she reminisced about their past. “That little girl was constantly getting in my way. I find it cute now, but it was pretty annoying back then. Treat my granddaughter well.” “Are you not worried about Shiva possessing her body?” Yuan suddenly asked. “No, Lord Shiva is our guardian spirit. She wouldn’t do anything to harm her.” Yuan then asked, “How much do you know about Outer Gods—or Eternals?” “Besides the very basics? Not much… if anything.” “Alright.” A few hours later, Mu Xuelian returned and was prepared to leave White Hell. Yuan didn’t linger and left with her shortly after. As they traveled, Yuan asked, “Hey, Shiva, do you know anything about an Eternal sealed within the Heavenly White Tiger Clan’s territory?” “Heavenly White Tiger Clan? I know of a few other Eternals sealed within the Nine Heavens before me, but none from that area, so they were most likely sealed after me.” “There are more sealed Eternals in the Nine Heavens…?” Her words left Yuan speechless.
