The Sun had just risen above the Ao Xian House.
Ling Xian was wearing a robe as white as snow and his hair was as black as ink. He looked like an extraordinary immortal who had just risen above from the ground.
Behind him, Chu Zhong Tian and Huang Er were respectively standing there, not uttering a word.
After a while, Ling Xian finally spoke slowly and broke the morning peace.

I am leaving now.

Hearing this, Chu Zhong Tian and Huang Er both sighed.
They knew from the start that Ling Xian was not meant to stay there and was not going to be trapped inside this city. The borderless sky was his real stage. However, they still felt sadness rising inside of them after hearing him speak those words.
Hearing the unwillingness in those two’s sighs, Ling Xian’s heart warmed and he smiled.
There is no need to feel sad, it’s not as if I am going to die and never return.


Master, I…
Chu Zhong Tian opened his lips but wasn’t sure what to say.
Huang Er behaved the same way. His normally smiling self could not find its grin today.
It was obvious that neither of them wanted him to leave.

You two…

Ling Xian softly sighed. He too was a little hesitant to leave. Though they were merely his subordinates, he never treated them like they were servants. Instead, he treated them like friends.
Now that he was saying that he was leaving, naturally he felt sad.
However, he had to leave. Whether it was for the great fortune or for his dream of being on top of the world – he could not afford to stay in one place for the rest of his life.

Alright, let’s change the subject.

Ling Xian waved his hand, his expression turned serious, and he said,
Zhong Tian after I am gone, I am leaving the Ao Xian House to you. I do not ask you to develop the Ao Xian House to achieve great glory, I merely need you to protect this land.


No worries, Master.

Chu Zhong Tian’s expression was serious.
You have scared off the different surrounding forces and you have acquired the Sky Cannon. If I still cannot ensure the Ao Xian House’s safety after all that, then I would be a piece of trash.


Why would my subordinates be trash?

Ling Xian softly grinned and patted Chu Zhong Tian’s shoulders,
Just do whatever you need to do. I believe in your abilities.


Master, do not fear, I vow to protect the Ao Xian House and protect your glory and creation.
Chu Zhong Tian’s expression was serious and his tone was powerful.

That’s all I wanted to hear from you.

Ling Xian nodded and shifted his gaze towards Huang Er,
The general direction of the Ao Xian House can be entrusted to Zhong Tian. You can take care of all the details. Your tasks are just as important. I hope you will do well.


Master, do not worry. Though I have no faith in my ability to steer the House in the right direction, I am good at taking care of the details.
Huang Er smiled proudly, very confident about his abilities.

As long as you have the confidence.

Ling Xian spoke softly and patted Huang Er’s shoulder.
Just think of yourself as the housekeeper of the Ao Xian House and think of Zhong Tian as the leader. I hope you two can cooperate and protect this creation of mine.


Hehe, protecting it isn’t enough. We will make sure the Ao Xian House heads towards a better direction and we will surprise you.
Huang Er chuckled.


I am hoping so too,
Ling Xian said with a smile. He was comfortable with these two.
They individually have loads of flaws, but the two of them together complemented each other. They have proven themselves to have these abilities throughout the past 10 years.
His only worry was whether or not these two would butt heads. After all, the first and second hand rarely exist harmoniously.
Thus, he glanced at Chu Zhong Tian, then at Huang Er.
You are both important to me, you are the flesh on my heart, my right hand, and my left hand, you are of the same status in my heart.

Pausing, he continued in a low voice,
So, I hope you can join forces and work together rather than argue with one another over small things. Can you do that?

Hearing this, Chu Zhong Tian and Huang Er exchanged glances and said in unison,
Do not worry. We promise to live harmoniously and make sure the Ao Xian House grows for the better.


Very good. I hope the next time I come back, I will see an even wealthier Ao Xian House.
Ling Xian smiled in satisfaction.
He had already achieved his goal of coming back and even gained more surprises on top of his goals. First, he found out the City of Sin is an entrance to another world. Second, he created a House on this land.
Third, he had entered the undefeatable realm of the completion level. Plus, there were two Immortal Bones growing inside of him.
In other words, he had much to gain during this trip and it could be described as fruitful. There was no more reason for him to stay here. It was time for him to head back to the Shang Qing Sect for that great fortune.

We will not disappoint you.

Chu Zhong Tian and Huang Er said in unison. Their voices were steady and powerful.

Very good.

Grinning, Ling Xian paused, then took three jade sheets out of his storage pouch.

These three jade sheets are records of three different great techniques. They are the Heaven Swallowing White Tiger, the God Inhibition Spell, and the Spell of Heaven and Moon. Take these and go practice with Huang Er.

Ling Xian explained in plain terms and handed them over to Zhong Tian.
These three techniques were acquired by him inside the Palace of Fortune. They were great techniques and were rather useful.
Thus, he handed down these techniques to Chu Zhong Tian in hopes of increasing his trustee’s battling abilities.
Listening to what Ling Xian had to say, Chu Zhong Tian’s hand quivered and dropped the jade sheets to the ground.
His heart twisted and using the fastest speed he could muster, he grabbed them. Then, shock and excitement flooded his face.
Three great techniques!
Techniques of this caliber are not common. Even to the Chu Clan, who once dominated the entire City of Sin, they only had two. Yet Ling Xian was handing him three at once. Why wouldn’t he be shocked?
He was excited because all three of these techniques were for him.

I… What have I done to afford such kind treatment from you?
Chu Zhong Tian was emotional and wanted to give Ling Xian back the jade sheets but he couldn’t physically do it.

Just take it.

Ling Xian softly smiled. These were three great techniques and would be considered valuable treasures to anyone else. But to him, these weren’t much.
If the techniques he learned from the Cliff of Enlightenment had instructions, he would’ve handed over the techniques to Chu Zhong Tian. After all, Chu Zhong Tian was faithful and loyal to him, and Ling Xian didn’t place much importance on techniques of this level.
Techniques like the Disorder Conquering Fists were something he’d never pass down.

Thank you for your kindness,
Chu Zhong Tian was full of smiles. The way he looked at Ling Xian was getting more and more respectable and excitable.

You and Huang Er are the flesh of my heart. You deserve more than just three techniques.

Ling Xian smiled and shifted his gaze towards Huang Er and warned,
Though you are not naturally talented with this stuff, if I can provide you with an immense amount of resources, it won’t be difficult for you to reach the completion level. So, do spend some energy on training.


Hehe, do not worry, I will train hard.
Huang Er snickered. Other than respect in his stare towards Ling Xian, he was full of sadness.

Alright, let’s not waste any more words. It’s time for me to go.

Ling Xian softly smiled and leaped up before the two’s sad stares. Within a few breaths of time, he had disappeared.
….
Three days later, Ling Xian appeared in one of the 10 cities – the City of Flowers.
