This Young Master is not Cannon Fodder Chapter 384

D.C.Haenlien Okay, so there's going to be an extra chapter tomorrow to make up for the missed chapter Monday. I'll post five chapters next week to make up for the missed chapters.

The silver-gold light emanating from Tianyi shrouded the downsized Huang Realm, but it didn't stop there and continued to extend. The curtain of silver-gold reached past the Huang Realm and toward the high-ranking realms. Additionally, six realms underneath the Huang Realm floated up. They were the realms controlled by the Buzhou Immortal Sect's monarchs, such as the Demon Cage Realm.

Unlike the newly formed Virtuous Realm, Tianyi didn't absorb the six realms into the Huang Realm. Instead, he placed them at a certain distance away from the Huang Realm.

Next, he waved his hands and three high-ranking realms under the Buzhou Immortal Sect's influence floated up, but like before, he didn't merge them into the Huang Realm. With another wave of his hand, eighteen intermediate-ranked realms floated and stopped on a layer beneath the Huang and high-ranking realms. After that, twenty-seven low-ranking realms gathered underneath the second layer. Next, forty-four immortal monarchs holding pseudo realm artifacts flew between the fifty-five realms.

Strings formed of realm essence materialized from the realm artifacts and linked all fifty-five realms, creating an intricate web. The silver-gold light Tianyi created folded and formed a bubble covering everything. Slowly, the realm essence webs turned faint, almost disappearing. They hadn't actually disappeared, but merged with the silver-gold space.

Although it only took a few words to describe, this process took over two hundred years. During this time, the process didn't stop immortal monarchs and above from entering and leaving the Huang Realm. Sect Master Xia also occasionally left to check on the process of Tianyi's work.

He had thought it would take much longer and much more effort from Tianyi. The original plan was to mobilize all the immortal monarchs and true immortals to help Tianyi transform the Huang Realm, but it turned out to be needless.

Everything planned before was based on Tianyi's strength the moment he became an immortal monarch. In just a short hundred years—oh wait, it should be closer to one hundred and fifty now—Tianyi had already grown so strong. 

Sect Master Xia sat in a lotus position and started comprehending the numerous laws utilized by Tianyi. It would probably take at least several thousands of years to merge or eliminate all his alternate selves, so it was better to spend time comprehending the myriad laws displayed by Tianyi. The stronger his comprehension, the easier it would be to enter the Origin Immortal Realm.

A hint of light and hope entered Sect Master Xia's eyes. Perhaps he could even merge the five elemental laws. He glanced at Tianyi, and couldn't help but wonder what kind of monstrous talent he possessed. Ridding himself of unnecessary thought, Sect Master Xia focused on comprehending the myriad laws.

Another decade passed, and Sect Master Xia opened his eyes. Although he didn't make any major breakthroughs, his accumulation had increased. And the reason he stopped was because the Buzhou Immortal Sect was finally ready to declare their hegemony.

Although the transformation of the Huang Realm was not yet complete, many entrances between the fifty-five realms appeared. However, there was a hierarchy. Low-ranks realms only had entrances to middle-rank realms, and middle-rank realms only had entrances to high-rank realms. Only the immortal-rank realm had entrances to all the realms. Descending down was easy, but returning to the immortal-rank realm was hard.

Sect Master Xia entered the silver-gold bubble and entered the original Huang Realm. Compared to fifty years ago, the geography had changed. The endless seas still existed, but Tianyi had shifted the continents until the Heaven Continent and the Earth Continent became one. Not only that, all the miscellaneous islands and landmasses also merged and became one with the newly named Trinity Continent.

After returning to the Buzhou Immortal Sect, Sect Master Xia sent out invitations to all third-rate forces and above.

Sailing across the clouds of the Trinity Continent was a colossal immortal boat large enough to house an entire city. Built in the middle of the boat was a magnificent palace, and standing on the balcony of the palace was a seemingly young girl in her late teens. She wore vibrant red robes embroidered with a hundred flowers and a three-tailed phoenix. Not many accessories adorned her hair, but the few that did were absolutely exquisite, and one even exuded an immortal aura.

She was the thirteenth princess of the Gan Dynasty of the former Earth Continent, Gan Xuehua.

Gan Xuehua stared at the floating continent in the middle of the Huang Realm. The Trinity Continent was divided into nine regions: Northern Region, Northeastern Region, Eastern Region, Southeastern Region, Southern Region, Southwestern Region, Western Region, Northwestern Region, and Central Region. However, although the Central Region was the largest, it was primarily a lake. The true Central Region was the floating continent above the lake. This was the land of the Buzhou Immortal Sect.

From a young age, Gan Xuehua had heard the legend of the Buzhou Immortal Sect, especially the tales of the Huang Realm's sole immortal sovereign and her son, the legendary Nine Heavens Emperor. Compared to Xi Mengfei, she was more interested in Xi Tianyi. Not because of anything like idolization, but proof of his power.

Her eyes flickered from the floating continent and toward the sky. The sky took on an argent tone, and since the first day she came to this world, she only knew this silver sky. That's right, came to this world. Gan Xuehua was not an indigenous soul of the Huang Realm or the Three Thousands Immortal Realms System, but a reincarnator from Earth.

Her name on Earth was also Xuehua, and she reincarnated into a girl name Xuehua, but that girl wasn't the thirteenth princess of the Gan Dynasty, but her maid Mu Xuehua. Mu Xuehua's body was a cultivation waste and the lowest-ranked maid. She had thought about displaying her amazing medical skills and becoming an imperial doctor, but in the world where western medicine hadn't developed and cultivation existed, it was practically useless.

Mu Xuehua thought that she would live out her life as a maid and die, but a month ago, she woke up as the thirteenth princess of the Gan Dynasty, Gan Xuehua.

The first thing Gan Xuehua did was not to discover why they switched bodies, but to order Mu Xuehua's death. However, to her annoyance, Mu Xuehua had disappeared, and no one knew where she had disappeared. Gan Xuehua was clear that the greatest danger to her current identity was Mu Xuehua's existence. If they ever switched back their body, she would die without recourse.

The second thing Gan Xuehua had to find out was how they switched bodies. She reached into her robes and pulled out a tomoe-shaped jewel, the Spectral Rising Jewel. She wasn't unfamiliar with this hauntingly beautiful jewel. Those too weak of will that stared at it would fall unconscious, or worse, have their soul damaged. Her resistance was one of the reasons the original Gan Xuehua chose her as a maid.

The thirteenth princess was the youngest child of the emperor but the second most-talented. She had entered the Core Formation Realm at the age of twenty. The first was the crown prince  who was only one step away from his Immortal Ascension Heavenly Tribulation. As for the Spectral Rising Jewel, she won it during one of the internal competitions between her siblings. However, the thirteenth princess couldn't make use of it with her current strength, so she had Mu Xuehua store it away. But while carrying it for storage, she accidentally tripped and a drop of her blood fell on top of it.

Or so she thought. Because when Mu Xuehua picked it up again, the blood had disappeared. She chalked it up to her imagination and stored it. The next day, she woke up and became Gan Xuehua, and discovered the jewel laying next to her pillow even though she clearly remembered storing it away.

A figure in black suddenly appeared behind her. Each child of the Gan Emperor would receive a squad of death guards, trained cultivators that wouldn't even hesitate to sacrifice their life under their master's order. Gan Xuehua didn't turn her head. “Did you find her?”

“My apologies, your highness. But that Mu girl is very slippery. We lost all traces of her,” the death guard said.

Gan Xuehua waved her hand. “Continue looking. I want her brought before me if she is alive. If she's dead, I want to see her corpse.”

“Yes, your highness!”

Once the death guard disappeared, Gan Xuehua stored the Spectral Rising Jewel. With one last look at the argent sky, she walked back into her room and sat on her bed in a lotus position. Although she currently possessed the body of Gan Xuehua, and the cultivation base of a core formation master, she didn't know how to use it at all. It was like putting someone who never learned how to fly a plane into the cockpit. In fact, it took her a week to learn how to restrain her qi.

Even so, Gan Xuehua felt a large amount of mental fatigue from restraining the qi every day. Although it became slightly easier by the day, she knew it wasn't an optimal solution. Especially since she would have to compete with her siblings for resources and potentially flee if the truth of her and Mu Xuehua was revealed.

The best way to learn how to cultivate was to start over. That was not to say Gan Xuehua would shatter her spiritual core and start over, that would be too foolish. No, she wanted to embark on the martial path. She thanked the gods that she was a doctor. Although the humans of this world differed from those of Earth, her medical knowledge made good reference and increased the speed of her martial cultivation. And thanks to her pre-existing spiritual cultivation base, she had already reached the Tendon Reinforcement Stage of the Body Transformation Realm in less than a month.

As the immortal boat sailed through the clouds, cracking sounds emanated from Gan Xuehua's body. The tendons inside her body had already completely transformed, and now she stepped into the Bone Refinement Stage. Her white bones took on a pure white sheen, almost crystalline in nature. Once she reached the peak of the Bone Refinement Stage, they would appear no different from diamonds.

Gan Xuehua wanted to continue to cultivate, but a knock on the doors broke her concentration. Displeasure flashed across her face, but it swiftly disappeared. “Who is it?”

“It's me, your highness?”

“Donghua? What is it?” Gan Xuehua asked.

“We'll arrive at the Buzhou Immortal Sect in a few days,” Donghua, her maid, replied.

“So fast?”

“Over a month has already passed,” Donghua said.

Gan Xuehua sighed. Time was really meaningless for cultivation. Since possessing this body, she had already spent half her time cultivating without noticing. “Alright, I understand.”

She stood up and brushed away the creases in her dress. Upon exiting her room, she saw her maid waiting for her. “Let's go.”

Gan Xuehua followed behind Donghua as she led them to the core of the ship. It took over an hour of walking, and once she entered, she saw her twelve siblings and this body's father waiting for her.

“Thirteenth Sister, can you not make us wait?” the crown prince asked. “You'll make me, the Esteemed Sage Ascendant Soul Venerable sent by the Wise Nascent Trigram Immortal of the Nine Great Heavens, look bad.”

Gan Xuehua sneered. “Aren't you afraid of offending the Nine Heavens Emperor by using Nine Great Heavens in your self-proclaimed title?”

Gan Linyou flicked his hair with a flourish. “It's no matter. The title of Nine Heavens belongs to me. I'm only lending it to that Xi Tianyi for a bit. Once I ascend to the Immortal Realm, he will have no choice but to relinquish his title. He doesn't understand the vulgarity of his title at all. How can you only use two words? You must have at least ten words to show your prestige.”

The rest of the emperor's children and even the emperor himself showed helpless smiles. Although his cultivation talent was strong, there was a problem with his brain. Had the rest of his children showed even a modicum of half his talent, the position of crown prince wouldn't be his.

The Gan Emperor looked at Gan Xuehua with hope. As long as she reached the Nascent Soul Realm, he would title her the crown princess.

“I want to see if you can say that after seeing the Nine Heavens Emperor,” Gan Xuehua said with a snort. She walked and stood with the rest of the emperor's children before taking out a Xiyi Talisman. There was another reason she wanted to see Xi Tianyi. She had many reasons to believe that he was a reincarnator like her.
