update icon Updated at 2025/4/15 19:10:12

Xu Chen entered the room, a small room that accommodated five beautiful women, filling the room with a feminine atmosphere.

"Hey, who said you could come in!" Zi Wan, with messy ponytail, pointed at Xu Chen displeased.

"Zi Wan, sister! Don't be rude!" Qingyin reprimanded.

"It's okay, Miss Zi Wan. Although I crafted this flying ship, I have no intention of disturbing your privacy. However, there are certain matters that need to be discussed." Xu Chen said.

"Hmm, Xu Chen, listening to Sister Qingyin, have you regained your original power?" Xiao Zi asked.

Xu Chen looked at Qingyin with surprise.

"I'm sorry, Xu Chen. I thought that Xiao Zi and the others were already part of our group, so I shared our past strange experiences with them."

Xu Chen was stunned for a moment, but then he understood. "Well, indeed, since we all went together to save Sister Star Dance, today we are all partners, and we should be honest with each other. I won't hide anything from you sisters anymore."

The four girls sat around the bed, with Zi Wan standing in the corner.

Qingyin spoke, "Regarding Sister Star Dance's whereabouts, before I joined the Swallowing Sky Sect, I had gathered some information. The Swallowing Sky Sect's grandmaternal ancestor wanted to gain my trust, so she actively sent people to help me gather information. I found out that Star Dance had been taken away from the Ghost King's lair by him, but she seemed unharmed. However, when I tried to gather further information, I was careless and got captured by the Swallowing Sky Sect grandmaternal ancestor, so she naturally wouldn't tell me anything anymore! It's all my fault for being careless and missing a great opportunity... Now, I don't know how Star Dance is doing. I... I really regret it, my own carelessness..."

"At least Star Dance was unharmed at that time, which can be considered half good news!" Xu Chen said, "But Qingyin, you don't have to blame yourself too much. For a girl to venture into the deepest part of the demonic realm and remain unharmed, it's already fortunate. Don't worry, I can sense you and I can also sense Sister Star Dance's location. However, I cannot directly teleport there. There is an invisible force stopping me. But now, our ship is already very close to that place. We will be able to fly there in another two or three days."

"Xu Chen, take us out for a look." Xiao Zi stood up and said.

Xu Chen and the five women went out to the deck, where the outside was covered in a vast, bleak gray color, giving a feeling of desolation and darkness.

Xu Chen pointed ahead to a place surrounded by a faint light. "It seems that Sister Star Dance is in that direction."

"Um... I don't know why, but I always feel very uncomfortable over there," Qingyin said.

Qingyin had a naturally sensitive constitution and a keen intuition towards many things, which surprised the other four demonesses.

Even Xiao Zi furrowed her brows and her body began to tremble.

"What's wrong, everyone?" Xu Chen felt the unusual reaction from the four demonesses and asked.

The Shura Witch with red hair, Lianhua, said, "That is Mengyan Country."

"What?" Xu Chen was also surprised. Hearing the name Mengyan Country, he remembered seeing Izayoi working there when he first arrived in the demonic realm, but he couldn't reach it. Mengyan Country is the biggest secret of the demonic realm!

"I didn't expect Mengyan Country to be right in the depths of the demonic realm," Xu Chen said.

"Xu Chen," Xiao Zi said solemnly, "There is no need for us to hide anything from you anymore. I will tell you the truth about Mengyan Country that I know. After hearing what I say, if Star Dance is really there, it's up to you to decide whether to enter or not. Since we have already fought side by side, no matter what decision you make in the end, we will act together."

"Well... Xiao Zi, please tell me."

"Mengyan Country has the ability to manipulate time and space, and the true Mengyan Country is in this Dark Prison, which is where we are heading. From here, we can directly enter Mengyan Country, without any temporal displacement, it's the actual location of Mengyan Country! However, this place is also the most dangerous part of the entire demonic realm! Even the Demon Emperor rarely dares to enter casually! Within that place, there are countless terrifying secret realms and countless natural dangers, as well as many incredibly powerful beings that even the Demon Emperor does not dare to provoke. But the most dangerous is the creator of Mengyan Country, extremely mysterious, I've never seen him myself. I've only heard that he is called the Lord of Mengyan Country, and very few people know his true strength. But to be able to create a place like Mengyan Country, I estimate that his power should surpass that of the Demon Emperor! And we are going to enter his lair, Xu Chen. You should understand the danger involved, right?"

Xu Chen wanted to head towards the distant place that exuded an unsettling aura. "Meng Yan Guo... Even if Star Dance sister isn't in there, I still have to come here. Izayoi's soul fragment is still trapped here..."

Xu Chen turned around and said to everyone, "Sisters, I know what Meng Yan Guo represents, and I know the dangers we will face if we enter. Qingyin sister, Star Dance sister, and I have a bond of life and death. Even though I may not necessarily fear the leader of Meng Yan Guo, I know for sure that I don't stand a chance against him. Nevertheless, we will definitely enter! But Zhizhi, Lianhua, The Maiden of the Celestial Realm, and Zi Wan, I cannot force you to come with us. This decision is up to you."

Zhizhi, Lianhua, The Maiden of the Celestial Realm, and Zi Wan looked at each other and nodded in understanding.

Zhizhi spoke, "Xu Chen, even though we haven't known each other for long, your willingness to sacrifice yourself for each of your sisters and your fearlessness towards any enemy have convinced us. The magic realm is vast, filled with powerful and savage men, many of whom are charming and capable. However, they only see women as playthings or their possessions. When real danger arises, those selfish and ruthless individuals who only know how to brutally slaughter will definitely not stand by women's sides and face death together. Only you are willing to give everything for the sake of girls. Your tolerance, your bravery, including the power you currently possess, make us feel that perhaps you are a good partner to fight together with! Xu Chen, the Four Heavenly Demonesses are willing to follow you!"

"Eh? Zhizhi sister..."

"Xu Chen!" The Maiden of the Celestial Realm, dressed in flowing white robes with silver hair and silver eyes, said, "Please don't always separate your past sisters from us. We are willing to follow you, so please treat us as partners who face life and death together! If one day, you or your sisters encounter danger, we will do everything we can to save you, and the same goes for us!"

"The Maiden of the Celestial Realm..." Xu Chen felt touched. The Four Heavenly Demonesses were familiar with the magic realm, so it was best if they were willing to go to Meng Yan Guo with him. What moved Xu Chen even more was how they all met by chance but instantly formed deep bonds of comradeship and partnership.

Throughout his life, Xu Chen most enjoyed making friends like this. Being able to adventure with his sisters was his lifelong wish.

"Xu Chen, I have always been traveling with The Maiden of the Celestial Realm. Since she says so, I will do the same!" Lianhua said.

"Hmph, you all..." Zi Wan said, "You're just talking to yourselves! But since you're all going with this kid, I can't handle the countless enemies in the magic realm by myself. I'll go with you all! Hmph!"

Zi Wan still had some dissatisfaction.

"Sisters, I'm really moved that you're willing to go with me. From now on, you will be my comrades in life and death. However, as Saishi sister mentioned, Meng Yan Guo is extremely dangerous. Although your strengths are formidable, there is still much room for improvement to be able to freely come and go in Meng Yan Guo. I hope that during these few days of travel, we can practice together and enhance our powers."

"Hahaha." Zi Wan playfully hopped onto the top of the cabin and sat down, her tanned thighs crossed and swinging. "Practice? There are only three days left, what can we achieve through practice? We have been practicing for countless years! Are you hoping for a breakthrough now?"

Xu Chen said, "A breakthrough may not be possible, but I have many secret techniques that this magic realm does not possess. Some of them are more suitable for you. If you can practice these secret techniques, you will gain a new kind of power, which will certainly be of great help in our adventure in Meng Yan Guo!"

"You? Are you kidding?" Zi Wan scoffed.

"Xu Chen," Zhizhi broke the awkward atmosphere, "if you really have such secret techniques, then we won't have enough time to practice!"

"Sakiko, here in cultivation, of course, but, but, I have a different world, located in a consciousness void that is completely unrelated to the magical realm. The flow of time there is only one ten thousandth of the magical realm! Three days is equivalent to a hundred years! If we enter that space to cultivate, we should be able to develop everyone's new abilities before we reach Mengyan Kingdom!"

"Huh? You still have such a method? Looks can be deceiving!" Zi Wan sarcastically remarked, "Are you kidding us?"

"Hehe, Miss Zi Wan, whether I'm kidding or not, we will know when we go there together!" Xu Chen said casually.

"Xu Chen, what is the world you're talking about? How do we enter?" Lianhua asked.

Xu Chen waved his hand, and a simple and ancient book appeared in the air.

"Well, this big book is the entry point to enter this world. As long as you don't resist, I can pull all of you into this world. The name of the world is—Truth of Encounter."
