Chapter 1042 Arriving at Third Heaven


    After being teleported out of the Stairway to Heaven by Tian''er, Yuan and the others found themselves somewhere in the middle of a green valley surrounded by mountains and trees.


    "Looks like we have arrived safely. I was worried about the possibility of appearing in the middle of an ocean, or worse, at the bottom of one." Chu Liuxiang said as she looked around.


    "Is everyone here?" Yuan looked around to make sure that nobody had strayed from the group.


    Chu Liuxiang, Meixiu, Li Jinxi, Xiao Hua, Feng Yuxiang, and Li Jinxi— all six of them were there.


    "Since we''ve been inside the Stairway to Heaven for longer than I''d anticipated, I am going to take a few days break. We''ll figure out our location and where we should go afterward." Yuan said to them.


    "Okay." Xiao Hua and the other two servants returned to his body before Yuan logged off with Meixiu and the others.


    After logging off, the first thing Yuan noticed was Meifeng, who was cleaning his room at this moment.


    "Wee back." Meifeng said when she noticed them removing their consoles.


    "I''m back." Yuan smiled.


    "I can''t believe that you''d actually stayed inside Cultivation Online for over a month without any breaks. Are you feeling okay?" Meifeng asked him.


    "Yes, I am perfectly fine." He nodded.


    And he continued, "But my stomach is not. I''m starving…"


    "I''ll go cook some food right now." Meifeng stopped cleaning the room and rushed to the kitchen.


    "I''m going to take a shower." He said to Chu Liuxiang after Meifeng left the room.


    "I''lle with you!" Chu Liuxiang said as she hopped off the bed and rushed into the bathroom.


    Yuan followed her a momentter.


    "Y-Yuan! Your body!" Chu Liuxiang suddenly eximed when she got a clearer look at his appearance after he entered the bathroom.


    "My body?" Yuan looked down at his body to see that it''d be more refined and detailed. Furthermore, he noticed that he was a little taller than before.


    "The Perfect Tempering Ginseng has affected your real body as well!" Chu Liuxiang said with an excited smile on her face.


    "I''m not surprised, considering how powerful the treasure was." He smiled as well.


    "Since it''s been awhile, let me be the first to have a taste of your new body… hehe…" Chu Liuxiang suddenly said with a lustful expression on her face.


    Yuan was speechless, but he didn''t reject her.


    After a quick shower, Chu Liuxiang pulled Yuan into the bathtub with her, where they would spend over an hour embracing each other.


    Once they were both satisfied, they took another shower to wash off the sweat before leaving the bathroom and getting changed.


    By the time they arrived at the dining room, Meixiu and the others were already sitting around the table.


    "Wee back, Yuan, and congrattions on passing the trial." Wang Xiuying said to him.


    "Thank you."


    "Yuan, there''s something you should know." Meixiu suddenly said to him with a weird expression on her face.


    "What happened?"


    "I just heard about it, but…"


    Meixiu proceeded to tell him about the yer massacre that had urred shortly after they ascended to Third Heaven.


    "Seriously…?" Yuan was speechless after hearing the news. He didn''t think the Seven Legacy Families and the Ji Family would attack indiscriminately.


    "Hmm? Is it just me or is there something different about you, Yuan?" Wang Ming suddenly said.


    "You''re right… He seems a little taller than before." Wang Bingbing agreed with him.


    "Yuan… Don''t tell me the Perfect Tempering Ginseng had…" Meixiu swallowed nervously after the others mentioned it, as she was already used to seeing Yuan in his new body in Cultivation Online, so she didn''t immediately notice.


    The same went for Li Jinxi, whose mouth opened slightly after seeing his new physique.


    "Long story short, I consumed a powerful treasure during the trial, and it was strong enough to affect my real body in this world as well." Yuan exined the situation to the members.


    "My god… You''re like a different person." Shi Lang muttered in a dazed voice.


    "Well, it was a really rare treasure that only existed during the Primordial Era. There''s a good chance that the treasure I consumed was thest one in existence…" Yuan said with a smile.Content is property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    "Anyways, tell me more about this massacre. What is the situation now?"


    "There''s not much happening. The yers that tried to ascend were attacked the moment they left the Stairway to Heaven. Hundreds of yers died because of this incident, and the yers are no longer willing to ascend for the time being." Xi Murong exined.


    "That reminds me… What about you guys? I was just about to ask Meixiu before the two of you arrived. Were you guys also attacked? People online are specting that you were also killed in the ambush." Wu Zao asked.


    "No, we weren''t attacked, but that''s because we knew about it in advance and left the Stairway to Heaven in another way. In fact, I am the reason for the attack…" Yuan sighed.


    "Huh? You''re responsible for the massacre?" They all looked at him with wide eyes.


    He nodded and proceeded to exin to them about his situation with the Seven Legacy Families and the massacre that had urred right before he entered the Stairway to Heaven.


    "Because of what I did to their families in Spirit Heaven, they had set up that ambush for me… I should''ve warned the yers before I entered the Third Heaven, but it didn''t ur to me at that time." He shook his head with a guilty expression on his face.


    "Well, what''s done is already done. These yers were being foolish to begin with— I mean, why would they ascend when they don''t have the qualifications in the first ce? They would''ve died sooner orter, anyway." Wang Ming shrugged his shoulders, unable to pity the yers that had been killed.


    "Probably, but they didn''t deserve to be killed in such a fashion." Yuan sighed.
