Cultivation Online novel Chapter 598

Chapter 598 - The Calamity Is Not Over Yet

"I am fine… Where am I? And how long have I been asleep?" Yuan asked in a low voice.

"We are currently inside the Six Spiritual Families' private hospital, and you have been asleep for about two weeks now," Meixiu said.

"That long?" Yuan slowly sat up on the bed.

"I'm sorry if I made you two worried, but I am fine." He said to them a moment later.

"Wait right here. I will get the doctors to check your condition." Meixiu then went to call for a doctor.

After checking Yuan's body, the doctor said, "His body is a little weak right now, but besides that, everything is normal."

"Thank you, doctor."

"I need to speak with the grand elders," Yuan said to Meixiu.

"The calamity… It's not over yet."

"W-What…?" Meixiu's eyes widened with shock.

"What do you mean the calamity isn't over yet?! Didn't you defeat the demon already?" Chu Liuxiang quickly asked.

"Yes, the demon is gone. However, that isn't the only demon in this world. There are other sealed demons in this world, and they will eventually break from their seal."

"Unbelievable… So we'll have to deal with this again?" Meixiu muttered in a voice of disbelief.

Sometime later, the grand elders gathered at the hospital inside Yuan's room.

"Daoist Yuan! It's relieving to see you finally awake! I haven't had a wink of sleep for the last two weeks!" Senior Hong laughed when he saw Yuan awake.

"Senior Wang, did you bring the crystal?" Yuan asked her a moment later.

"Yes, but why do you need it?" Senior Wang retrieved the wooden box.

"Can you show me the crystal inside?"

Hearing Yuan's words, Senior Wang and the other grand elders could sense an ominous feeling in the air.

After taking a deep breath, Senior Wang opened the box, revealing the crystal inside.

"I-I-Impossible! Why is the crystal still yellow?! The calamity should have ended when the demon died!" Senior Hong exclaimed in a shocked voice.

"How do you know this, Daoist Yuan?" Senior Wang then asked.

Yuan took a moment to ponder an excuse before speaking, "The demon told me right before its death— that it wasn't alone in this world and that its comrades will eventually break out of its seal as well."

"Heavens…"

Senior Hong fell on his butt after hearing Yuan's words.

This means they will have to fight even more demons in the future, and if they are any stronger than the one they have already defeated, it will be a very grim moment for the world.

"Don't worry, I will take care of the demons." Yuan suddenly said.

And then she said, "If you wish to visit her grave before you leave…"

"Of course." Yuan nodded.

Senior Wang then brought him to where they buried all of the victims from the demon's rampage, and there was a total of 138 graves.

"This one is Azure's resting spot." Senior Wang showed him the way.

Yuan took a seat in front of her grave, and he placed Azure's zither on his lap.

He then started playing the zither, and it was one of the songs that he'd learned from Azure during their time together.

After playing the song, Yuan stood up and prayed, "If there's really a chance for us to play the zither again… I will make it happen… I promise…"

Sometime later, Yuan turned to Senior Wang and bowed to her, "Thank you for everything. I will ask for an alliance with the Spiritual Elites once I create my faction."

"Let us know before you create your faction so that we can send our disciples to you." Senior Wang nodded.

"Of course."

After saying his goodbyes with the other grand elders, Yuan left the Jaded Garden with Meixiu and the others, using Chu Liuxiang's helicopter to get out of the place.

"We're going to return to our apartment first. What are you going to do now, Lulu?" Yuan asked her while they were in the air.

"I am going to follow you, of course. There is no way that I would leave before you create your faction," she said.

Once they arrived at Yang City, Yuan and Meixiu followed Chu Liuxiang to her private airplane, where they begin their journey back home.
