Peerless Immortal Emperor in City

Chapter 738 738: 738

"Brother, do you have any time recently?" Qin Yun asked over the phone. "The school is going to conduct some sort of integration test, and they require a parent to accompany the student. But Mom and Dad are abroad, and Ran Ran doesn't count as a guardian."

Integration test? Qin Heng was slightly taken aback and asked, "What exactly is this integration test? Is it organized by the school officially, or is there a third-party institution involved?"

"I'm not too sure either," Qin Yun said with a hint of confusion, "The teacher just mentioned it today after school and also said that every student must participate. If someone doesn't, the test will be administered at their home."

"Okay." Qin Heng nodded and said, "I'll come back tonight. It's a good chance to stay in Tianhai for a few days."

"Really?" Qin Yun exclaimed, her voice full of joy. "That's great, Brother! You're finally coming back. It's been over a month since I last saw you. Hurry back, I miss you so much!"

"Mm, you and Ran Ran wait for me at home," Qin Heng confirmed with a nod. He actually missed Qin Yun and the others a bit too, and this was a good opportunity to go back and see them.

There wasn't much going on in Beijing, and the matter of the ancient tomb in Jizhou wasn't urgent; it could wait until after he was done in Tianhai.

With that thought in mind, Qin Heng took a step forward. The colors of his surroundings quickly faded to grayscale, and he vanished into thin air!

Spirit Realm traversal!

After emerging from the secret realm of the Battle of Changping, his cultivation base hadn't increased. However, he had made a breakthrough in his Realm and Daoist attainment. His current traversal through the Spirit Realm relied precisely on this Realm and Daoist attainment!

Originally, using the method of Spirit Realm traversal, Qin Heng could at most travel a hundred kilometers. Now, he could easily traverse five hundred kilometers. The distance from Changping City to Tianhai was only a little over a thousand kilometers.

Two Spirit Realm traversals were more than enough!

The entire process took Qin Heng less than a minute!!

In Tianhai, at Qin Heng's villa.

Qin Yun had just hung up the phone, bouncing back onto the sofa with excitement and shouted, "Ran Ran, Ling Su, my brother is coming back! Make an extra portion of food!"

"What, Qin Heng is coming back!?" Song Ningran, wearing an apron, ran out of the kitchen with a surprised expression. "Yun Yun, did you call him?"

As she spoke, she pouted her red lips, coquettishly complaining, "Ahhh! That heartless man, it's almost been two months since we've seen him, and he couldn't even make a phone call!"

"Mr. Xuantian, is he coming back?" Ling Su was cooking when she heard Qin Yun's words. Her hand involuntarily shook. Her feelings for Qin Heng were complicated, a mix of fear and gratitude.

During the Martial Dao gathering in Suzhou, she had been disrespectful and was captured by Qin Heng to serve him. But later, Qin Heng saved her life. In contrast, the actions of her own Divine Sword Sect had disappointed her.

After spending some time living with them, Ling Su had come to regard this place as her home and Qin Yun and Song Ningran as her family. She just wasn't sure how Qin Heng would deal with her upon his return. This uncertainty made Ling Su a bit anxious.

"Yeah, he said he will be back tonight," Qin Yun, wearing a white dress, excitedly twirled around, causing her dress to flare up. "But I think we might still have to wait an hour or two."

"Not necessarily. Last time he came to save us, it was very quick."

Song Ningran pondered for a moment and smiled, "I think maybe around forty to fifty minutes, or possibly half an hour, should do it. I'll go ahead and prepare the meals for him!"

As her voice trailed off, the colors around them suddenly faded, turning into shades of black and white. The whole world seemed to twist, becoming bizarrely distorted and eerily abnormal!

"What's happening!?"

Qin Yun and Song Ningran's faces drained of color; they had never seen such a scene before and were utterly shocked for a moment.

"Be careful!" Yun Lingsu quickly rushed out and stood in front of Qin Yun and Song Ningran, vigilantly surveying their surroundings. "Who is it? Come out!"

Suddenly, a strand of crimson flame also appeared, coalescing into a mature and seductive woman in front of them—it was the Red Flame Maiden. She too was looking at the phenomenon with a mix of astonishment and suspicion and said in a deep voice, "Whoever you are, a true expert does not hide in the shadows!"

In the void, Divine Power was faintly stirring, attempting to probe the source of this bizarre occurrence. These were the powers of the Jingchen Gold Mother and Su Ying. They were deities whom Qin Heng had enfeoffed, and they usually hid in the void to protect Qin Yun and the others.

This sudden and unexpected change was truly bizarre. There wasn't even the slightest fluctuation of Yuan Qi, which was highly suspicious, so they dared not let their guard down.

Otherwise! If something really happened, it would be earth-shattering!

In an instant!

The villa turned deadly quiet, without a sound, as everyone held their breath, poised for action.

Then, Qin Heng walked out from this twisted spacetime.

As soon as Qin Heng appeared, the black and white regained their colors, reverting to their original state, as if the previous anomaly had never happened at all.

"What, you've all come to greet me?" Qin Heng asked with a smile. "Thank you."

Qin Yun, Song Ningran, and the others were immediately stunned. Yun Lingsu was also dumbfounded. The Red Flame Maiden rolled her eyes at Qin Heng, then dispersed into a flicker of flame and vanished. The Jingchen Gold Mother and Su Ying sighed in relief, bowed to Qin Heng, and then departed as well.

"Thank you my foot! Brother!! How dare you scare me!!" Qin Yun erupted, throwing herself at Qin Heng with feigned ferocity, but instead of actually grabbing him, she plunged into his embrace.

"Ah ah ah!" Qin Yun pummeled Qin Heng's chest with her delicate little fists, complaining, "You meanie! Why don't you come home to see us more often! Tell me, do you not want me as your sister anymore!?"

"Haven't I just come back?" Qin Heng ruffled Qin Yun's little head, messing up her hair, then waved to Song Ningran with a smile. "Ran Ran, long time no see."

"Mhm, welcome back."

Song Ningran's smile blossomed. "I originally thought you'd take half an hour or more, but it's only been a few minutes, and here you are. What was that just now…?"

"Spirit Realm Travel, it was actually Spirit Realm Travel!?"

Yun Lingsu exclaimed in shock, her hands covering her red lips, looking at Qin Heng with wide, disbelieving eyes, utterly overwhelmed. "Mr. Xuantian, you, you can travel through the Spirit Realm? How, how is that possible!?"

She hailed from the Ancient Divine Sect's Divine Sword Sect and had read descriptions of Spirit Realm Travel. Though she hadn't recognized it at first glance, the realization now struck her, leaving her in utter disbelief.

Spirit Realm Travel typically requires the prowess of at least a peak Great Saint, and even then, it's usually over short distances. How could Qin Heng possibly achieve it?

Could his Cultivation Realm already be at the peak of Great Saint!? How could that be possible!?
