Chapter 1195: Sea Territory
Translator: Sigma_ Editor: SSins
Fantasy Mist Star Area was adjacent to Fiery Rain Star Area and Agate Star Area. It was the area covered with gray mist that could even block sunlight.
The strongest force of Fantasy Mist Star Area was Drifting Fire. It was a close-knitted league established by many big clans of Fantasy Mist Star Area to manage the entire star area. Because of the existence of Drifting Fire, Fantasy Mist Star Area hadn't had a war for a long time. The forces everywhere were united.
Unlike Agate Star Area, Fantasy Mist Star Area had connected closely to the galaxy. This place had an area called Sea Territory, which had many space passages leading to many other star areas.
The Sea Territory was similar to the chaotic space basin of Shadow Ghostly Prison. This place also had many life stars. These life stars had countless strangely shaped battleships. Some were made of beast bones while others looked like animals or even birds. Some of them looked like they were made of wood, which was so massive that they could reach even ten thousand meters. From a distance, they looked like gigantic asteroids.
Many battleships were anchored by the life stars or even hovering in the void. The Sea Territory was a busy area where many battleships moved in the hustle and bustle.
From time to time, the massive battleships moved out of the space passage connecting to other star areas. Clansmen from different clans screamed, laughed, and cheered as they were transporting different types of materials and unique ores of Fantasy Mist Star Area.
The Sea Territory was a big harbor of the star area that connected different big star areas. The battleships of different forces often visited the port to trade between the star stars.
Of course, being the gateway to Fantasy Mist Star Area, the Sea Territory was managed by Drifting Fire. The warriors of the force rode war chariots around and watched over warriors from other star areas to prevent any problem.
The Sea Territory was extremely rich and luxurious. Each of the life stars here was lively and busy. The biggest markets of Fantasy Mist Star Area scattered on those life stars. They welcomed the warriors of the major star areas and forces to trade massive amount of materials.
The biggest life star in Sea Territory was called Cloudy Water Star. The surface of this star had many buildings of major races. Some were conical and some were rocky. There were many wooden buildings that were designed like a bird's nest. The clansmen of different, various clans dwelled in those buildings.
Cloudy Water Star was the wealthiest planet in Sea Territory. Every day, one billion warriors went in and out and brought countless types of matters on several thousand battleships.
Cloudy Water Sea had the biggest market and the biggest auction house in the Sea Territory. Drifting Fire had controlled this star for years. To be exact, An Liya's family of Drifting Fire managed this star.
An Liya's family was one of the biggest clans of Drifting Fire. Shang Ying Yue's grandfather was one of the big leaders of Drifting Fire. Unfortunately, the Bai family had killed him. However, An Liya's family still held a high position in the hierarchy of Drifting Fire. An Liya was the top alchemist of Fantasy Mist Star Area. She was really famous as she was the golden banner for her family, which made all the clans of Drifting Fire respect her family.
In addition, An Liya got married to a good husband. Shang Chen was the Fate Traveller. He had wandered around the major star areas and always remained mysterious.
A long time ago, some families in Drifting Fire had seized the chance and attempted to snatch Cloudy Water Star from An Liya's family since An Liya's father was murdered. Those families were really strong and many other members of Drifting Fire had chosen to stay idle to observe.
Cloudy Water Star was the most bustling star of the Sea Territory. It was the core center and the pillars of An Liya's family.
People thought that An Liya's family couldn't stand the attack and they would give up Cloudy Water Star to protect their family's force.
However, people were astounded when the leader of the family that wanted to rob Cloudy Water Star had died all of a sudden in the critical time. He was murdered.
That expert was at Second Sky of Incipient God Realm. It was one of the leaders of Drifting Fire.
An Liya was an alchemist, so her fighting competence wasn't really strong. At that time, Shang Ying Yue and Shang Qiu were still young and the power of their family was at the lowest point. Shang Chen wasn't in Fantasy Mist Star Area. No one knew where he was wandering.
No one knew what had happened.
But from that day onward, no one in Drifting Fire dared to challenge An Liya's family anymore. Her family still controlled Cloudy Water Star. Whether Shang Chen was here or not, no one dared to plot this star.
At that time, Drifting Fire had spread out a reasonable explanation. It said that Shang Chen had befriended with the most mysterious people and evils in the cosmos. It was that evil force who had helped An Liya's solve that problem while Shang Chen wasn't home.
A Second Sky of Incipient God Realm expert who was really strong in the organization of Drifting Fire was killed unknowingly. No one could investigate this case and find the real murderer.
No one had the guts to seize or plot against Cloudy Water Star anymore.
----------------------------
Cloudy Water Star.
It was a vast land where many battleships in different shapes were anchored around the imposing buildings.
There was a majestic building made of icy cold rock situated at the center of the continent. It was protected with many barriers outside. There were King God Realm and Original God Real guards patrolling around. It was the private territory of An Liya's family. They were the real owners of Cloudy Water Star.
Inside a freezing chamber, Shang Ying Yue was sitting while Icy Soul Cold Crystals were planted around her. The energy of Icy Soul Cold Crystals had frozen the entire secret chamber.
This secret chamber that was several thousand square meters deep underground was now a world of snow and the ground was now made of ice crystals. There were four warriors in there talking to each other with low voices while observing Shang Ying Yue.
Shang Chen, Shang Qiu, and An Liya were Shang Ying Yue's closest loved ones. Besides them, there was a white-headed elder woman who was supporting herself with an icy jade staff. She had First Sky of Incipient God Realm cultivation base. This old woman was An Liya's mother, Shusia.
After Desolate had thrown Shang Ying Yue out of the planet, she had traveled through rough and bumpy space passages of other star areas to return to Cloudy Water Star in Fantasy Mist Star Area.
She briefed them on what had happened in Desolate and then declared that she wanted to cultivate in seclusion. She wanted to use the Original Incipient Grade materials that she had harvested to cultivate here. She was taking in the power of the Icy Soul Cold Crystal and the Lightning Balls in her hands.
An Liya was very surprised when she heard that her daughter wanted to cultivate ascetically. After asking her, she knew that Shang Ying Yue wished to break through to Incipient God Realm.
An Liya was so happy. She gathered all the power of the family and asked the experts to come and guard the place.
Shusia, Shang Ying Yue's grandmother wasn't in Cloudy Water Star. However, she had dropped off her work in the headquarters of Drifting Fire to come here and protect her granddaughter.
As her father, Shang Chen was also dragged here by An Liya. The family members gathered in this secret icy chamber to protect Shang Ying Yue. They hoped that she could break to Incipient God Realm smoothly.
"Is she alright?" An Liya had a high updo hair bun, which added to her elegant, orchid-like bearings. She was frowning and she couldn't help but ask worriedly. Her beautiful eyes were fixed on Shang Ying Yue.
"Little Chen, you've cultivated Fate power Upanishad. Could you predict something?" Shusia squinted. She thrust her ice jade staff into the snowy ground, squeezing and crushing anxiously.
"Dad, my sister will be alright, right?" Shang Qiu also asked.
Breaking through to Incipient God Realm from Third Sky of Ethereal God Realm was a struggling battle that had a ninety percent rate of failure. Many had fallen in this step. Their soul altars shattered altogether.
It was hard for her family to not be tense. They knew that Shang Ying Yue was amazingly gifted and that she had a bigger chance to break through since she had been trained in Desolate. However, they were still very worried.
If she failed, her body would explode. It was the better case. In the worst case, her soul altar could burn into ashes.
They had to be very careful.
As his wife, son, and mother in law were looking at him and waiting for his answer, Shang Chen forced a smile, "I've told you many times. I can't see the fate of the ones who are close to me. I can't predict what's going to happen. Please don't ask me."
These three had asked him the same question several hundred times. Although Shang Chen had a tough mind, he couldn't endure it.
An Liya, Shang Qiu, and Shusia looked discontented. They rolled their eyes at Shang Chen when An Liya hissed, "You useless old man. You can predict people's fates directly, but you can't know how your daughter will be. What's good for you to cultivate such a trash power Upanishad..."
Listening to his wife nagging, Shang Chen only gave a forced smile, pretending that he didn't hear anything. He squinted his eyes and waited in silence.
"After Little Yue came home, she looked different. When she mentioned that kid Shi Yan, she sounded a little awkward..." An Liya suddenly whispered.
Grannie Shusia squinted, her eyes searching Shang Chen. "Hey, Little Chen, how long will you continue to hide the story of that kid? You don't even want to tell your own family about that? Who is he? What's his identity?"
As she came late, she didn't have the chance to listen to the secrets of the ancient continent that Shang Ying Yue had told the others. Only Shang Chen and An Liya knew them, but An Liya didn't know the details. This grannie didn't know Shi Yan well.
"Hmm..." Shang Chen gave them another forced smile. He always felt helpless when he faced his family. "For the time being, I can't provide more information. Guys, give me more time. After I've solved all the things, I will tell you. It's not a good thing for you guys to know many stories. It could bring trouble to the entire Drifting Fire."
Listening to him, An Liya, Shang Qiu, and Shusia discolored in fright.
"Is that kid's identity really terrifying?" Shusia's wrinkled face quivered. She waved her hand, her eyes anxious. "Then say nothing. My heart's not good. I can't bear a big surprise."
As they were a family, they knew that Shang Chen would never harm them. They also knew the cause of the mysterious death of the expert who was greedy for their fortune. They knew Shang Chen had secrets, which were extremely terrifying. They understood that Shang Chan wanted good things for them, so they didn't ask further.
"It's not the right time. When the right time comes, I will tell you the details," said Shang Chen.
"Then tell me. If our Little Yue has something with that kid, will it be good or bad for her?" asked An Liya earnestly.
Shang Chen frowned worriedly. He pondered for a while and then said, "If that kid can succeed, it will be our Little Yue's blessings and our family's blessings. But if he fails, it will be the biggest disaster. We will fall into disaster altogether. Sigh, I'm having a headache."
Swoosh!
All of a sudden, a dazzling silver light emitted from a drawing on the wall of the secret chamber and entered Shang Chen's body.
Shang Chen jolted up. He closed his eyes to sense and then said, "I'm so sorry. I can't wait for Little Yue. I have to go now."
"Why? What's more important than your daughter?!?" An Liya rolled her eyes.
"That kid has returned from Desolate. He sent me messages. It's really critical. I have to go now." Shang Chen sighed begrudgingly. He bowed to his wife and gave her a forced smile before leaving quietly.
