Chapter 493 The Ancient Ruin

An hour later, as Xia Tian's flying artifact was getting closer to the ancient ruin, he stood at the front of the flying artifact together with the four women while surveying the entire area around the ruin.

From the air, the ancient ruin looks very small, but in reality it is really huge. Moreover, the ancient ruin was also hovering quite high above the ground, and they could see seven rock formations with several portals in the middle of each rock formation in the areas below it.

Suddenly, Xia Tian raised his eyebrows and muttered to himself. "Why do I feel familiar with that ruin? I feel that I have seen it in the past."

Like Xia Tian, Nalan Qing was also familiar with the shape of the ancient ruin, but she couldn't remember it. "Tian, I also feel that I have seen that ruin before, but I forgot where I saw it."

Since they already knew Xia Tian's identity as a reincarnator, Feng Xian'er and Qin Qing were not surprised to hear his words, but they were surprised to hear Nalan Qing's words, mainly because they still didn't know her true identity.

On the other hand, Situ Meiyi was just listening to them, but she wondered in her heart at their words.

"Xia Tian, who is she exactly?" Feng Xian'er finally asked him because she was so curious about Nalan Qing's identity, Qin Qing and Situ Meiqi also looked at him.

Xia Tian turned his head and answered Feng Xian'er. "She is Nalan Qing, and she is actually the daughter of my first cultivation brother, but she is now my woman. Although she looks so young, she is over 1000 years old."

"Eh!?" The three women were shocked to learn of Nalan Qing's age, and they looked at her in astonishment, especially since she looked much younger than them.

"You guys don't have to look at me like that." Nalan Qing laughed at their expressions. "Although I am a human just like all of you, but I come from a different human race, and people of my race have always looked young since ancient times."

Xia Tian then explained it to them. "In fact, the ancestors of the Qing'er race were humans and elves, but they didn't have the character of the elves, and they were really no different from ordinary humans."

"Marriage between humans and elves? Is that possible?" Feng Xian'er asked in disbelief; she only knew about the elves from the ancient scrolls, and she had never met any of them before. But she suddenly remembered something and asked again. "Does that mean one of her ancestors came from the Elven Nature Realm?"

"Nope." Xia Tian shook his head at her. "Like us humans, elves also have many races, and her ancestor race is different from the elves of the Nature Elven Realm."

"Hey, Xia Tian. How did you know about all that?" Situ Meiqi asked incomprehensibly. She had never gotten together with Xia Tian before, so she knew absolutely nothing about him, let alone the stories of his past life. "Moreover, you are still 17 years old, but you said that Nalan Qing's father is your first cultivation brother, and she herself is also over 1000 years old."

Xia Tian turned to her and chuckled, but he didn't intend to tell Situ Meiqi anything about his past. "That is my secret."

Feng Xian'er and Qin Qing didn't say anything to her either; they knew more or less about Xia Tian's character, and he would definitely scold them if they told Situ Meiqi about his secret.

"You-"

Just as Situ Meiqi was about to scold him, they saw a flying artifact moving very fast towards them, and Xia Tian said with a chuckle. "Hey, I knew they would come here too."

After Xia Tian opened the shield of his flying artifact, two women jumped onto it, and they immediately stored their flying artifact.

"Young Master Tian." Fan Youling greeted him respectfully, especially since he was Fan Jing's man.

Xia Tian nodded to her and turned to Fan Quexian. "How are you, Quexian? I'm sorry, I haven't had time to go to the Jade Pearl Sect to see you."

"It's okay, and I'm fine as usual." Fan Quexian replied flatly. Even though she had decided to marry Xia Tian in the future, but their relationship still hadn't progressed at all, and that was because he was too busy with his other matters.

Xia Tian scratched the back of his head upon hearing his tone; Nalan Qing then teased him. "Tian, Quexian is your future wife, so you should spend your time with her."

Feng Xian'er, Qin Qing, and Situ Meiqi were shocked to hear that. In addition, Fan Youling, as the elder of the Jade Pearl Sect, is also very respectful towards Xia Tian.

"Well, you're right, Qing'er." Xia Tian nodded in agreement. "I shouldn't mind my own business, and I should spend more time with all of you."

Xia Tian then took Fan Quexian's hand and gave her a little jade to enter his Ancient Sacred Realm. At first, he was going to give it to her after she became his woman, but now he's changed his mind, and he's doing it so they can see each other more often and become closer. "This way we will be able to meet more easily, Quexian."

"I understand." Fan Quexian nodded and stored the little jade in her storage ring.

Unlike Qin Qing and Situ Meiqi, that little jade caught Feng Xian'er's attention, even more so after hearing his words. 'Could that little jade be the key to entering his private realm? Sigh, at first I didn't really believe Bing Huang's words, but it turns out that he does have too many women.'

Although Feng Xian'er was very curious about the jade and his woman's identity, she chose not to ask Xia Tian about it for now, especially since Qin Qing and Situ Meiqi were around.

When they arrived at the ancient ruin, they immediately descended the flying artifact, which Xia Tian immediately stored it in his inventory.

Xia Tian and Nalan Qing then walked over to one of the rock formations and studied the symbols on it, and his expression turned completely shocked. "Impossible! How can this rock formation have this symbol? Moreover, this ancient ruin is not that old."

"Do you recognize this symbol, Tian?" Nalan Qing asked as she kept looking at the symbol on the rock formation, but she couldn't recognize it.

Fan Youling and Fan Quexian also rushed over to them, but since they were still young elves, they didn't recognize the symbol either.

"I'm not too sure, but I have a guess." Xia Tian then turned to Feng Xian'er, who was in another rock formation. "Xian'er! Please come here for a moment."

Hearing that, Feng Xian'er immediately flew over to them and asked. "What happened, Xia Tian?"

"Do you know the history of this ancient ruin?" Xia Tian asked her back.

"Hmm?" Feng Xian'er didn't immediately answer Xia Tian's question, and she tried to search through her memories of the ancient ruin first, and soon she answered him. "If I remember correctly from the records I've read in the past, this ancient ruin first appeared about a hundred years ago. At that time, the Seven Star World was in darkness for a period of time, and a strange phenomenon occurred in this place that was like a black hole. However, after the phenomenon disappeared, this ancient ruin suddenly appeared in this place."

"About a hundred years ago?" Xia Tian was shocked to hear that, and Feng Xian'er nodded to him.

According to Alice's data, Xia Tian himself died about a hundred years ago, and at that time his soul was also sucked into the black hole, but his soul floated in the void for a hundred years before inhabiting his current body.

Alice suddenly said to him. [Master, judging from the residue traced by the system, this ancient ruin was also sucked up by the same black hole that sucked up your soul before.]

Xia Tian took a deep breath after hearing that. He then looked up at the sky and clenched his fists tightly, and he shouted in his heart. 'Damn you, Fate!'
