Chapter 2056 - 2024: Changes in the Nether King Group
Watching Ye Tu leave with his wife, Catherine slowly withdrew her gaze from the rooftop.
"Sister, Ye Tu, he..." Behind Catherine, Heishou slowly spoke.
"Forget it, don’t bother." Before Heishou could say more, Catherine waved her hand to interrupt him, "Ye Tu was among the first batch of people to join the Palace of the Nether King, and I’ve known him longer than you have. I also know what kind of person he is."
Heishou remained silent, as he wasn’t in a position to offer an opinion on the matter.
"He now has a family, and we’re all happy for him. Having such a wife is indeed a blessing for him. I understand that Little Yu doesn’t want him to be dragged into these chaotic affairs again, and that’s for his own good," Catherine said.
"But are we just going to let him leave like this? Although Old Ye doesn’t care much, still he..."
"Enough." Catherine shook her head. "This matter ends here. Every family has its difficulties. Little Yu merely hopes there’s no trouble for him. Moreover, if he truly can stay out of this matter, I’d actually be quite happy. But as I said, I’ve known him longer than you. So, I understand him better."
"No matter the situation, as long as there’s trouble in the Palace of the Nether King, this guy will definitely be the first to step forward." Catherine sighed softly, "That’s just who he is, almost exactly like those other two fools."
At this, even she could not help but show an expression of anger.
Regarding these words, Heishou did not dare to respond, knowing full well the ’two fools’ to whom the elder sister referred. She could speak freely, but he could not say so indiscriminately.
"That fool said he’d wait upon departure, and now years have passed." Looking at the sky, Catherine’s eyes revealed a hint of resentment.
Although these years have passed, owing to cultivation, age traces were scarce on her, but compared to before, Catherine was now more mature and possessed a corresponding dignity.
This dignity was something that was only seen on Li Chen back then.
After Li Chen left, Wang Qianqian and the others took charge of the Palace of the Nether King for quite a while, as Catherine retreated to enjoy her carefree days with Ning Wangyang.
Unfortunately, good times did not last, as Wang Qianqian and the others ascended to the Heaven Realm, and Ning Wangyang proactively sought protection, the burden fell back onto her shoulders.
During the days when Ning Wangyang was to depart, Catherine suddenly regretted not devoting herself to cultivation.
If her cultivation was sufficient, she could ascend with Ning Wangyang and never have to worry about parting again.
These years, Catherine settled her mind on cultivation, but it seemed limited by aptitude, as her cultivation still remained at the Burning Heat, far from reaching ascension.
Given that Catherine sat at the center of the Nether King Group, receiving the best cultivation benefits, although she had numerous dealings, her cultivation environment could be considered among the best.
Yet in this environment, after all these years, she remained at Burning Heat, proving it was an aptitude issue.
In cultivation, while sometimes aptitude isn’t crucial, there are moments it cannot be ignored.
Even those exceptionally talented geniuses don’t necessarily become strong, so those with lower talent must exert greater effort.
"Forget it, one step at a time. Cultivation is not something to rush." Catherine sighed, pondering how long it would take for her to ascend and reunite with Ning Wangyang.
Perhaps by then, her hair would have turned white?
Catherine was indeed a wise and remarkable woman, or else Li Chen wouldn’t have appointed her to her current position. Even after Li Chen’s departure, nobody could shake Catherine’s status.
This wasn’t just due to Catherine’s special standing in the Palace of the Nether King, but more because of her own capability.
Unfortunately, when it came to cultivation, Catherine’s aptitude was quite ordinary.
Reaching this realm today, Catherine couldn’t count how much resources she invested. Yet in such an environment, she remained at the Burning Heat Level without making progress.
"No more of this. By the way, Heishou." Catherine suddenly turned, looking at Heishou behind her.
"Is there anything you need, Sister?"
"Nothing particular, when Levi and their people set out tomorrow, ensure security, notify Fan Bayin, have Fan Bayin secretly follow them upon departure. If anything happens, let Old Fan’s ghost handle it first, giving them time." Catherine instructed.
"Yes, Sister."
After hearing Catherine’s words, Heishou withdrew a few steps, disappearing into the darkness, direction unknown.
As the meeting ended, throughout Huaxia and even globally, including surrounding minor worlds, movements began.
Though the Nether King Group was nominally just a group, it effectively replaced the Hongmeng Pavilion now, acting as the true official institution for Martial Artists, and the Hongmeng Pavilion, most of the time, could only assist actions by the Nether King Group.
Nothing else, now the Nether King Group was undeniably a huge entity; its warriors were far more numerous than any other faction.
To this day, except for a few top figures in the Nether King Group, nobody could guess the depth of their resources or know just how many cards and warriors were hidden within.
The Nether King Group was undoubtedly the foremost force now!
Moreover, this influence wasn’t just confined to the Main World but had also permeated surrounding minor worlds.
Levi and Anna, for example, were powerful figures from the various minor worlds beyond the dimensional gate.
Years ago, Li Chen taught students in minor worlds for a period, and over these years, they finally matured into true strong warriors. Even after the Behemoth disaster, development in the minor worlds grew increasingly prosperous.
Levi and others rapidly advanced due to inheriting a series from Li Chen back then.
After the ascension of ancestors from various minor worlds, Levi was now the strongest most capable of ascending there, his cultivation already touching the edge of the Infinite Level, albeit currently at the Blood Condensation stage; likely soon he could truly enter the Breakthrough stage.
In that moment, a vehicle speeding along gradually landed on the highway outside Linchuan.
Looking far ahead at the already distant city, the passengers slowly got off the vehicle with smiles on their faces.
"Linchuan, I’ve come back again."
