Chapter 111: Astonishing News!

  Emerald Continent!

  Without much effort, the three of them easily learned the name of this space from others. Just like people on the Wind Continent and the Thunderstorm Continent, who although belonging to different countries, would know what land they were standing on since childhood, the people here would also start their conversations with phrases like "Our Green Plains Continent's xx country..."

  Although they knew that this place should be an independent space separate from the world where Leiyu and Fengxing were located, yet interdependent with it, after living here for a period of time, Zuo Xiaoyao and the three others discovered that whether it was the ecological environment, the cycle of day and night, or the cultural aspects of language and writing, they were all extremely similar to those of Leiyu and Fengxing, clearly belonging to the same origin. It's likely that there is a deep connection between them.

  Of course, these were not the focus of Zuo Xiao's attention until the three of them truly experienced it and understood the information in this space. Only then did they realize that this was a small world, with an area of nearly 100 million square kilometers, no smaller than the vast wasteland on the mainland of Lei Yu. It was divided into seven countries, each governing itself, far beyond what they could have seen from that "plain".

  But even with more and more information, it seems that everything here is not quite the same as the information they got from those 'images', Zuo Xiao Yao and the other two can roughly confirm that this is indeed the space where Rong Hong Tian's shadow appeared, because his reputation has spread throughout the entire Green Plains Continent.

  "In your opinion, does Brother Luo still not know that this place is actually just a different space?"

  Thinking of Hongtian's achievements at the Luoyuan Grand Assembly, the three sat in a elegant teahouse and Zuo Xiaoyao asked with a thoughtful expression.

  Qin Xiao nodded "It's possible. If we had fallen into this realm from the beginning, I'm sure we wouldn't have expected that this place would only be an alternate space, after all, there is such a long human civilization here, it can also be called a small world!"

  It was as if he suddenly remembered something, and Zhuge's eyes revealed a hint of expectation. "I heard that in the heyday of the ancient Xian Tian realm, those powerful beings who had reached the pinnacle of power would often refine this kind of space into a mustard seed space. Not only could it be carried with them at all times, but they could also enter and exit at will, making us later generations yearn for it!"

  "Yes, in the meantime, I also thought that this kind of heterospace was just a legend and no longer existed in reality. Who would have thought that we would have such an encounter? Not only did we arrive at this strange world, but we also repeatedly encountered this kind of heterospace. Although it's unclear whether it's good or bad luck, one thing is certain: from now on, we know that there are too many secrets in this vast and mysterious universe... far beyond what we can imagine!"

  Qin Xiao couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, his face slightly changing. Xue Yaoyao was somewhat taken aback and followed his gaze to the left front, where she saw three young men and women with long swords on their backs walking into the teahouse entrance. They were all dressed elegantly, with an extraordinary aura about them, looking very impressive. The other customers in the teahouse looked at them with a mixture of fear and curiosity, unable to help but sneak glances at them. The originally somewhat noisy atmosphere in the teahouse hall also quieted down.

  Since arriving at this green plain, the three of them had never interacted with these native people. But Qin Xiao's face was filled with joy, as if he had met an old friend in a foreign land, which seemed somewhat unreasonable. Seeing that he still hadn't come back to his senses, Zuo Xiaoyao asked first, "Brother Qin, do you know them?"

  Only after hearing this question did he react, Qin Xiao first withdrew his gaze and changed to releasing his spiritual sense to monitor the words and actions of the three people. Only then did he smile and shake his head, saying "How could that be? It's just that I've seen them before, although this is the first time I've seen them in person."

  A flash of understanding passed through his eyes, and Zhuge Jinyu quickly replied, "We didn't see them in the Huaxia Sect, but we saw their 'shadow images' in that desolate domain before. What connection do they have with Brother Luo?"

  Qin Xiao nodded "Not bad, Zhuge brother's guess is not wrong. I have seen their images following Hong Tian before, but at that time they were still young and looked quite weak. Now it seems that their growth is not bad, unfortunately, I don't know if they are still in contact with Hong Tian now."

  "So, Brother Qin wants to gather some information from them? But have you thought about how to get close to them?"

  "It's been many years since Hongtian chose to remain silent, and there has been no news about him in recent years. I suppose it's because he's lost heart and doesn't keep in touch with them anymore. But anyway, let's try our best, even if the result will be futile. After all, the worst situation is no worse than what we are experiencing now!"

  Qin Xiao said it was a fact, they now only have some limited information to carry out carpet-style searches on this green plain, and also went to two places where Luo Hongtian is said to have been. The harvest was very limited, and they could only determine what happened in those two places based on the environment and terrain. On the "plain", there will often be displays, but no more information about Luo Hongtian's later whereabouts can be obtained from them, making the three people feel a bit helpless.

  Slaying the ferocious beasts that brought disaster to one side, annihilating a powerful and evil cult, relieving water disasters, establishing a sect and accepting disciples, although Luó Hóng Tiān did not unify the mainland like Zhūgě Mǐ Yuè and Qín Liáng Kě, what he has done is enough to make him a legendary hero on the Lǜ Yuán continent, earning him great respect and admiration.

  But what others didn't know was that after Zuo Xiao Yao and the other two learned of this information, they immediately understood his actions. In fact, it had a similar purpose to what Zhuge Jin Yu did on the Lei Yu continent. Unfortunately, what made Luo Hong Tian disappointed was that in the few years he spent working hard on this green plain, he didn't get any information related to others. Perhaps realizing something, he eventually had to retire quietly when his reputation was at its peak, disappearing from the sight of the people on the Green Plain Continent, and there was no more news coming out.

  Listening to the three young men and women discussing, Zuo Xiao Yao sighed and said "If we count it up, among us, Rong brother is probably the most unfortunate one. Over these years, he has endured the most!"

  She knew what she meant by "a few people", including Huiyue and Qinzheke, Zhuge Jinyu and Qin Xiao nodded in agreement. Before that, although they had not fully reunited, because they knew some other old friends' letters, even if they were in a foreign land, their hearts were more settled, with the hope of reuniting with everyone soon.

  Compared to others, being alone and adrift in this strange space, unaware of the vast world outside, despite his efforts, he had yet to receive any news about his old friends. Moreover, he realized that although there was sufficient spiritual energy for him to cultivate, his cultivation could not advance, and he continued to suffer setbacks. The pressure Rong Hongtian endured was immense, and it's easy to imagine how they felt.

  Just as he was sighing in his heart, the three of them suddenly changed color again, with a look of surprise on their faces. After a moment, Zuo Xiaoyao looked at Qin Xiao with hopeful eyes, as if seeking confirmation from him, and said, "The Shifu, Ershuang, and the newly born Shidi they mentioned should... shouldn't have anything to do with Brother Luo, right?"
