"Feel sorry."
The female warrior in white slowly sheathed her twin swords behind her back, and apologized first, then explained, "Xia, I was worried that you would be deceived by him."
"A sixth-level martial artist of the Hengxing realm doesn't seem to have the strength to help us out of this predicament—so I want to test him."
"Chen Yuan is my friend, and I know his abilities best." Xia glared at him, annoyed. "I don't need you to test him for me."
"I'm sorry," the white-clad female warrior apologized again honestly, "It won't happen again."
Xia gave a soft snort, then let her go. She turned to Chen Yuan, her tone tinged with helplessness: "And you, what's going on?"
"Saying something like that for no reason is unlike you."
"Feel sorry."
Chen Yuan also apologized, then shook his head slightly and said, "Perhaps I'm being too sensitive, but this matter is not as simple as you think."
Afterwards, Chen Yuan briefly explained the troubles he had recently encountered, and concluded by saying, "That's why those people can't do anything to me, so they thought of targeting you."
"Therefore, I suspect that your encounter with this inheritance might be part of the other party's scheme—in that case, your companions are naturally the most suspicious, and there is a suspicion that they deliberately set a trap."
"That's why I wanted to test her and see if she would reveal any flaws."
Upon hearing Chen Yuan's words, Xia turned and exchanged a glance with the white-clad female martial artist behind her. Both of them looked on with sudden realization: "So that's how it is—"
Chen Yuan noticed their expressions; they didn't seem surprised at all, which made him slightly uneasy.
"In fact, the person you're talking about does exist." Xia turned to Chen Yuan and said, "Her name was Irene, and she was another one of our companions before, but she's already dead."
"This Palace of Inheritance was brought about by Irene, but after I received the inheritance, she suddenly attacked me."
At this point, Xia shook her head slightly: "Fortunately, because of my experience in the Purple Radiance Secret Realm, I was more careful, which is why I was not successfully ambushed."
"Later, with the combined efforts of Zhi and me, we successfully killed Ileni."
As Xia spoke, she introduced the white-clad female warrior behind Chen Yuan: "This is Zhi, who is also a top-tier elite."
"We come from the same tribe. Zhi is my older sister, so you can rest assured about her identity."
"I see." Chen Yuan suddenly realized, and then said to the white-clad female warrior, Zhi, "I'm sorry, I misunderstood you."
The female warrior in white shook her head slightly: "It's alright, you're only concerned about Xia's safety."
"It's good that the misunderstanding has been cleared up."
Seeing that the two had stopped arguing, Xia finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"By the way, you said this lineage was initiated by 'Ireni'?"
Chen Yuan recalled Xia's words and asked with some doubt, "Logically speaking, the person behind the scenes shouldn't have that much power, right? To be able to create a World Lord's legacy out of thin air?"
"The inheritance is real."
The intelligent life form in the red dress, who had been observing quietly, suddenly spoke up: "Let me explain."
"The 'Ireni' that Xia mentioned did indeed initially set up a fake world lord's inheritance, with the aim of luring Xia here."
The girl in the red dress said calmly, "But she didn't expect that beneath the fake inheritance site she arranged was the inheritance palace of my former master, the 'Lord of Ten Thousand Flames'."
"Because Xia's qualifications fully met the standards set by the master, the Inheritance Palace was automatically activated when she arrived. After a series of tests, Xia finally inherited the entire legacy of the old master."
"As for what happened next, just like Xia said, Ireni's sneak attack failed and he was killed instead."
"So that's how it is." After understanding the whole story, Chen Yuan was both amused and exasperated: "So, this World Lord's inheritance is real? Your luck is truly—."
Chen Yuan was speechless. How come he didn't have Xia's incredible luck?
In the Purple Radiance Secret Realm, she also triggered the Nameless Realm Lord's test and obtained the rare and powerful secret technique "Nine Luminaries Body".
Now, having arrived in the Thousand Fire World, despite being tricked, he unexpectedly triggered the true inheritance of a realm master, not only inheriting the entire legacy of a realm master but also gaining an intelligent life form.
"I really want to know what the mastermind's expression was when they heard this news."
Chen Yuan couldn't help but sigh, "Originally, it was just a trap to lure you in, but the fake inheritance turned into a real one. I bet the other person's expression right now is quite something."
"Alright, stop reminiscing."
The girl in the red dress interrupted, "I heard from Xia that you brought an E-class spaceship? That's great! Hurry up and take it out; we need to leave quickly."
"The remaining reserve energy of this heritage palace is running low, and it is being consumed outside. It can only last for ten days at most."
"The energy is being consumed so quickly?" Chen Yuan asked in confusion. "Logically speaking, since a legacy has been laid out, there should be enough energy left, right?"
"I know that." Xia raised her hand to indicate: "According to the information I received from the inheritance, the existence of this Wan Yan Realm Lord is extremely ancient, and can even be traced back to the early stage of the Qianwu Universe Kingdom."
"So this Palace of Inheritance has actually existed for countless epochs. If its energy hadn't been about to run out, Cecilia wouldn't have chosen me as the inheritor."
"Oh, Cecilia is the name of this intelligent life form."
Xia chuckled as she said this, "Actually, in terms of aptitude, I'm still a bit short of the standard set by the Lord of the Myriad Flames Realm, but the energy of the Inheritance Palace is about to run out, so she has no choice but to choose me."
"Yes, yes, yes." Cecilia, the girl in the red dress, rolled her eyes. "If I weren't running out of energy, I wouldn't want to pass on my legacy to a barely passable little girl like you."
"But there's no other way. In order to prevent the legacy from falling into the hands of the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance, I can only choose the best among the worst."
"Alright, enough chit-chat." Cecilia looked at Chen Yuan: "Where's your E-class spaceship? Bring it out now."
"I need to save up my last bit of energy to pack up the entire Heritage Palace and take it with me."
"I certainly have my own spaceship," Chen Yuan said. "But there's something I need to clarify beforehand: we can't leave the Thousand Fire World yet."
"The mastermind behind this hasn't shown up yet, and is likely lying in wait outside. So I've already notified the teacher, and he should be able to arrive within a month."
"We'll leave after the teacher arrives; it'll be safer that way."
"As for the secret realm, there's no need to worry; no one can break through the spaceship's defenses."
"I agree." No sooner had Chen Yuan finished speaking than Xia immediately added, "Chen Yuan's teacher is the renowned Shi Lan Realm Master of the branch."
Having gained the recognition of the fundamental laws of wind, they possess immense power and can absolutely guarantee our safety.
"I'm fine with it too." The white-clad female warrior nodded.
"Alright then, one month it is." The girl in the red dress hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement, then rubbed her hands together: "Okay, hurry up and take out the spaceship. I can't even remember how many eras it's been since I've been in contact with high-tech equipment."
Upon hearing the words of the girl in the red dress, Chen Yuan's expression turned somewhat strange, but he still nodded and released the disguised Shiyuan Palace.
Upon seeing the true form of the "Blue Fox," everyone present breathed a sigh of relief—it was indeed an E-class spaceship, and their safety was now assured.
"Pfft, judging from its appearance, it's at most an E5 grade vehicle; its performance is quite average."
Cecilia circled the spaceship once, offering a critical assessment: "Well, something's better than nothing—hehe, kid,"
"I'll borrow your spaceship for a bit."
As she spoke, Cecilia leaped into the air, about to merge into the spaceship, when suddenly she was bounced back with a thud.
"Ouch!"
The girl in the red dress rubbed her forehead, looking surprised. "What's going on? Why can't I blend in? I even got bounced back!"
"And how did your spaceship cause me pain? I'm an intelligent life form!" Her eyes were full of disbelief.
"Hmph, that's because the Beginning-Blue Fox already has an owner."
A clear, crisp sound rang out, and Irene floated out of the spaceship, landing in front of everyone.
"Whose AI is so unruly, daring to touch things that belong to someone else?"
Irene rolled her eyes at the girl in the red dress and said irritably.
