Chapter 1732 Revealing His Identity
Sometime later, Yuan and Kelan went over to Emperor Ning to say goodbye.
"Before you leave, can you give this reward to that young lady who won the tournament?" Emperor Ning handed the Innate Miracle Pill to Kelan.
Kelan brought the Demon Sealing Faction and Yuan to a nearby area afterward.
"How much time do we have before the Celestial Overlord arrives to recruit me?" Yuan inquired.
"We have a few more days. Why?"
"Alright. Let's go to the Myriad of Techniques, then."
"Why the Myriad of Techniques?" Kelan raised an eyebrow, feeling like Yuan was being oddly specific and familiar with their background.
"That's Overlord Bai's territory, no? What I have to tell you guys is incredibly important and cannot be leaked. I need a safe place to reveal this information to you."
Kelan's eyes widened. This was their first time meeting, so why does he have something so important to tell them?
"Does this have something to do with Yuan?" Meixiu suddenly asked with an observant face.
He silently nodded.
"Huh? Yuan? You know Yuan?" Everyone there looked at him with wide eyes.
"So you've known about us this entire time?!"
"I cannot reveal any more here."
"..."
"Alright, I'll bring us to the Myriad of Techniques right now." Kelan retrieved a talisman and burned it with spiritual energy. The next moment, everyone around him was enveloped by a golden light before they vanished into thin air.
The scenery flickered before Yuan and the others, and before they realized it, they were suddenly in front of the Myriad of Techniques.
The talisman worked similarly to the teleport stones in the Primal Expanse, but they were incredibly valuable and limited in travel distance due to human's lack of understanding of the power of the void. They entered the Myriad of Techniques and went straight into Senior Bai's world, as Kelan had been given permission by Senior Bai to do so without his presence in case of emergencies.
Once they were inside Senior Bai's world and protected from eavesdrops and the Celestial Emperor's interference, Yuan said to them, "Before I begin, I would like to apologize for messing with you all. I kept my identity hidden because I couldn't let the public know that I am still in Cultivation Online, and I wanted you all to experience what fighting me without knowing it's me was like."
"W-wait… that voice…" Chu Liuxiang muttered in a dazed voice after recognizing Yuan's voice, as he'd stopped disguising his voice after entering Senior Bai's world.
Yuan removed his mask, revealing his handsome face to them. Nôv(el)B\\jnn
"Sorry, it was me this entire time," he said with an apologetic smile.
"Y-YUAN?!?!" Kelan screamed, sounding like he'd just witnessed his ancestors crawling out of their graves.
"Y-you… it was you this entire time?!" Shi Lang exclaimed.
"Fucking fuck! I knew it! I knew something was off!" Wang Ming cried out loud.
"Damn! I really thought there was someone more monstrous than you for a moment there!" Xi Murong sighed loudly.
"Waaaah! You really scared me during the fight, Yuan!" Chu Liuxiang went to embrace him.
Xi Meili rubbed her eyes and sighed, "I knew your dragon scent was familiar, but there was something very different about it, and it threw me off."
"Yuan… when did you return?" Meixiu asked him.
"A few days before the tournament started. When I left the Primal Expanse, I found myself at the Ning Family's residence, and upon hearing about the Grand Mystic Sect participating in the tournament, I figured I'd wait to see if you guys would show up."
"After confirming that you guys were also participating, I wanted to see how much you guys have grown first-hand, hence my interference."
"Umm… About Sister Jinxi…" Wang Bingbing looked at him with a puzzled expression on her face.
"Ah… yeah… I accidentally killed her. I'd like to personally apologize to her, but I cannot do that." Yuan shook his head.
"What do you mean by that?" Meixiu asked with a slightly worried tone, sensing something was off.
"Before I say anything, Meili, Yingying, you're still affected by the Celestial Emperor's curse, so let's have that removed first." Yuan retrieved the Sacred Chalice of Purification.
"W-what kind of treasure is that?" Kelan finally snapped out of his daze and asked him.
"A treasure I acquired in the Primal Expanse. It has the ability to remove curses—including the one the Celestial Emperor placed on every being below the Seventh Heaven. This will allow her to understand our existence as players."
"Such a powerful treasure exists?! The Celestial Emperor's curse isn't an ordinary curse!"
Xi Meili and Lan Yingying fed the chalice some of their blood, and a few moments later, they were no longer forced to ignore the existence of players.
Yuan explained their existence to them shortly after.
"Heavens… To think my way of thinking had been controlled by someone without my knowledge this entire time… how terrifying…" Xi Meili shivered from fear after realizing the truth.
"What a horrible thing to do to someone, and they didn't even warn us..." Lan Yingying sighed.
"Alright, now that we're all on the same page… The Celestial Emperor is targeting me for some reason, and my access to the system has been blocked. Basically, I've been banned from Cultivation Online." Yuan revealed.
"W-what the hell? Something like that can happen?" Wang Xiuying muttered.
Yuan nodded and continued, "Once someone has their access to the system blocked, they will no longer be able to access Cultivation Online. In other words, they won't be able to enter the Nine Heavens."
"Wait. If that's the case, how are you still here?" Kelan asked.
"Don't ask me how or why, but I've been given access to another system, allowing me to stay inside Cultivation Online. However, there are a few issues, one of them being that I am no longer allowed to log off and return to Earth."
"What?!" Chu Liuxiang and the others cried out loud.
"This is why I didn't notify any of you of my return and why I cannot apologize to Li Jinxi until she returns to Cultivation Online after her death cooldown."
"If you cannot log out… What are you going to do now?" Meixiu asked once everyone comprehended the situation.
"I will need to reestablish the connection between Earth and the Nine Heavens through the Dragon Spiral Mountain as soon as possible, allowing me to travel to the Nine Heavens with my real body, and I have to do so without alerting the Celestial Emperor," he said.
