Chapter 1812: Crazy Blessings
The enemy fled Silver Plume planet with their mothership faster than you could say Jack Robinson.
Chen Xiaobei’s friends were finally allowed to be at ease.
There was a blend of excitement, applaud, curiosity and glory around and about Chen Xiaobei.
It took quite a while for everything to simmer down.
Dong Zhuo suggested that a ceremony be held in Silver Plume city in honor of Chen Xiaobei.
Chen Xiaobei made no protest, so the people of Silver Plume rushed back to the city to prepare for the party.
…
Only a few members of Bei Xuan faction remained.
Chen Xiaobei put away his saber and greeted his people with a warm smile.
After exchanging a few words with Xiangyu and Six-Eared Macaque, Chen Xiaobei turned his attention to Liu Xuanxin. “Lucky Goddess, what are you playing at? You were not wearing a mask just now! Why did you put it back on?”
“Just now?” Liu Xuanxin reached up to touch her mask, feeling self-conscious. “You… You saw my face?”
“Not clearly… No…” Chen Xiaobei shook his head. “When I jumped down from the waterfall, I could see from the corner of my eyes that you were not wearing a mask. But everything happened so quickly that I missed the chance to see your beautiful face!”
Liu Xuanxin exhaled. “That’s a relief…”
Chen Xiaobei made a face. “I really don’t understand. You’re a beguiling beauty. Why are you afraid of showing me your real face?”
“It’s nothing! Hey, aren’t you a faction leader? Why are you caught up with a girl’s face? Why aren’t you more concerned about your disciples? You better take care of them or they’ll be very disappointed!”
“Err…” Chen Xiaobei turned around to look at his disciples standing behind him. “How are you guys? Are you all alright?”
“Sifu! We are fine! We’re simply exhausted after exerting so much Ethereal Force. We’ll be fine after a good rest!” They replied.
Chen Xiaobei nodded and then proceeded to ask, “Oh, I almost forgot. How did the enemy find this place?”
The eldest disciple, Feng Qingyang explained, “Because sifu has taken over Atlantis and has control over the Northern Wilderness Overlord, this place is considered our territory! Some of us would occasionally leave the Secret Space to this forest to hunt for Demonic Beasts or to walk around and relax in the city. It had been fine until today when two of our disciples were followed! Then, that giant mothership showed up, surrounded the waterfall, and jammed our cell signal! Nevertheless, we were so lucky that Ms. Liu was able to get through to you before our formation collapsed! We would’ve died here today!”
Feng Qingyang spoke with crystal clarity. He even made sure to give credit to Liu Xuanxin.
Chen Xiaobei smiled. “Do you guys understand why I call her Lucky Goddess, now? She always brings me good luck whenever we’re paired together!”
“Oh please! Who’s paired with you?!” Liu Xuanxin retorted, but her cheeks blushed pink. “Your disciples are watching. Why can’t you just be a little more… proper?”
The disciples covered their mouths to muffle their laughter.
Chen Xiaobei signaled for them to stop. “Okay, seriously, the Secret Space is now exposed. I think we should move!”
“Move where?” Xiangyu asked eagerly. “I hope we move to a high-ranking starfield! It’ll be filled with opportunities and challenges! That’s where I can get stronger faster!”
Six-Eared Macaque shook his head. “You’re asking too much of Xiaobei! Not everyone can go to those places! I think it’s enough to move to a middle-ranking starfield – somewhere a little better than a low-ranking starfield is still better than nothing!”
Liu Xuanxin showed even more consideration for Chen Xiaobei. “I think Northern Wilderness Starfield is pretty good! Xiaobei is working hard on his own out there! We shouldn’t be giving him more to worry about!”
The funny blurb drew more happy laughter.
Liu Xuanxin blushed a furious pink under her mask.
Xiangyu came to her rescue. “That’s true! Xiaobei, you make the arrangements! We won’t raise any questions. We’ll move wherever you tell us to!”
The people of Bei Xuan looked at their fearless leader and nodded in agreement.
Chen Xiaobei shrugged. “I’ve decided to bring Bei Xuan Faction to the highest-ranking starfield!”
“What?! Highest-ranking starfield? Are you serious?!”
Everyone spoke at once, surprised by his answer.
In their eyes, the idea of moving to the highest-ranking starfield was farfetched. At this point, a middle-ranking starfield seemed like a more viable option.
They had not expected the former to be Chen Xiaobei’s answer.
“This is not a joke!” Chen Xiaobei answered. “Here in the Earthly Realm, the highest-ranking starfield is Apocalypse Starfield! It is made up of four major continents – Green Dragon, Vermillion Phoenix, White Tiger, and Black Tortoise! I’m thinking of moving Bei Xuan to Vermillion Phoenix!”
“This… This is great!” Xiangyu, in his excitement, did a little dance. “Xiaobei! You are awesome! You’ve only been gone for a few months, and you’ve already made your mark in the highest-ranking starfield! That’s above and beyond our expectations!”
“Well said!” Six-Eared Macaque patted his friend on the shoulder. “With Bei Xuan in Apocalypse Starfield, we would be only one step away from the Earth-God realm! Xiaobei, I give you 320 likes!”
Liu Xuanxin was still digesting the news. “Xiaobei… You sure bring us a hell lot of surprises!”
“There’s more!” Chen Xiaobei grinned. He took out the three Earth-God Instruments he had just taken from his enemies and another twelve from his personal collection. “Xiangyu, Six-Ear, Lucky Goddess. Each of you, choose one to protect yourselves!”
“What?!” came a loud and uniform gasp, all very aware of how valuable of a commodity an Earth-God instrument was.
Chen Xiaobei’s generosity had them all thunderstruck! He was giving away three Earth-God Instruments, and they each got to choose one!
There was no other person in the world as benevolent as Chen Xiaobei!
“Don’t be too surprised!” Chen Xiaobei raised a hand. “Let me just make this official. Should anyone in our faction reach God-Ascension cultivation, they will receive an Earth-God Instrument!
