Meanwhile, over at the Lower Realm in the Cultivation World.
The preserved body twitched slightly before returning to its original state.
Unfortunately, there was no one to witness it.
Immortal of Destruction arrived in her realm and a girl was sitting on her throne. If Ren Qian were here, he would have immediately identified her as his elder cousin and lover, Ren Jingjing.
"Get off my throne, you damn clone", the Immortal gritted her teeth.
The one being addressed as the clone said, "Oh, apologies, Celestial Yue. Did you think well before creating a clone like me?"
The Immortal of Destruction was indeed a Celestial. She had been bored living as a Celestial so she ran to the teleportation portal to the lower parts of the Universe and created a clone of a level low enough to go through the portal. Her clone was none other than Ren Jingjing, Ren Qian's elder sister. However, when her clone had died, she erased the memories of the Destruction Sect and replaced the leader as the Sect Leader, giving her the qualifications to be in the Immortal Temple. All of this she had done for Ren Qian.
"I truly pity you, Yue Jingjing. You sacrificed so much for one person who is not even aware of your feelings. Even your clone means something to him while you don't"
All through the speech of the clone, she remain quiet.
"I guess I have to continue making sacrifices then.", the cold beauty in black qipao struck the clone straight in the chest, making it puke blood.
Although it was her clone, it possessed its own consciousness. However, its strength was still a far cry from the fallen Celestial. In no time, it was subdued and the energy it created was not absorbed by Yue Jingjing but stored in a storage pouch.
If she had consumed that energy, she would have immediately been teleported to the Celestial Realm (her home)
After all, her cultivation would have soared to its original level and for balance, she would have to leave to the Celestial Lands.
Unfortunately, she didn't want that. She just wanted to stay close to him.
She was not a sentimental person but she was risking it all for him, because she felt a sense of familiarity with him. (Of course, she didn't know it was her beloved because she had made sure to erase all her memories for the safety of Ren Qian and her soul. Even Eternal Celestials had limits to which they could know.)
Yue Jingjing went straight to the pocket dimension where he found the Ascension God in a meditative pose.
She quickly sent a stream of energy through his meridians so that she could track his recovery progress.
Right now, she had a serious place to be, the place where she was truly born, the Celestial Land.
She had to ask if there was a way to reverse the formation to bring him back to the universe from that puny sect of hers.
She went back to her room and sent a clone to sleep on her bed in place of her just as a preventive measure and then made a large Array, with pulsated with a strange golden light.
She checked her surroundings before jumping right into the portal that appeared seconds later, her eyes were dangerously still and that spelt TROUBLE for some people or maybe groups of people.
