Cultivation Online novel Chapter 1598

Chapter 1598 Sect Leaders of the Three Grand Sects

A whole week has passed since Yuan was transported to the Primal Expanse. During this time, Xi Meili remained at the Endless Beast Den, anxiously waiting for Yuan to return.

Kelan went to speak with Senior Bai and explained the situation to him. Unsurprisingly, Senior Bai was extremely upset to hear this news. "Forgive me, Senior Bai. I have failed my mission." Kelan lowered his head and apologized.

Senior Bai didn't respond for a long time before sighing, "You're not at fault. I doubt I would be able to prevent it even if I were right beside him. Also, nobody could've expected a rift to appear. Follow me."

"Are we going to…?" Kelan swallowed nervously and asked.

Senior Bai nodded, confirming his suspicions, "Yes, we're going to speak with the Celestial Overlord."

Sometime later, Senior Bai and Kelan stood before Xu Jiaqi, who was sitting behind her desk that was stacked with mountains of papers.

"Didn't you just leave?" Xu Jiaqi spoke without even looking at them.

Senior Bai responded, "Sorry, but this is urgent."

"I've been hearing that word a lot lately. What is it this time?"

Senior Bai turned to look at Kelan, his gaze gesturing to Kelan to do the speaking for obvious reasons.

Kelan took a deep breath before falling to his knees and kowtowing.

"Due to my incompetence, Yuan, who I had been tasked to watch over, was swallowed by a rift!" he spoke in a shouting voice.

However, Xu Jiaqi merely raised an eyebrow and muttered, "A rift? What rift?"

"The ones that rarely appear when an Infinite Beast Spawn is destroyed…" Kelan clarified.

"What?! How did that happen?!" Xu Jiaqi exclaimed.

"This is what happened…" Kelan proceeded to recall everything that led to Yuan being swallowed by the rift.

Xu Jiaqi wore a deep frown on her face throughout the entire thing.

"And that's how Yuan entered the rift…"

Once Kelan was done, a profound silence filled the room.

After a long moment of silence, Xu Jiaqi stood up and began walking to the exit.

"Where are you going?" Senior Bai inquired.

"I'm going to speak with an expert. Then, I am going to head down to the Fourth Heaven," she said.

"Don't take this the wrong way, but even if we go down there, what can we do? Nobody has ever returned from the other side." Senior Bai shook his head.

"..." Xu Jiaqi halted her movement after hearing his words.

A moment later, she walked out of the room without responding.

Senior Bai looked at Kelan, who appeared to be on the verge of tears from fear, and said, "Let's go."

"Where…?" he asked.

"The Three Grand Sects, huh? How are they involved?" Senior Bai asked Kelan. _{ƒrēewebnovel.com}
