"Yes, th-these Elixir Pills, we don’t want them! We don’t want them!"
Just then, Wang Xiao’s voice rang out from within the room.
"Ignorance is no crime. While all business carries risk, it was indeed improper to sell one technique multiple times. I have now rid you of the demon scourge, so my debt to you is paid. You may go."
Upon hearing Wang Xiao’s voice, the merchants, as if granted a grand pardon, rose one after another and took their leave.
After the merchants had left, Wang Xiao’s voice rang out once more:
"Lord Hu, I am merely passing through and have no intention of staying. You need not worry."
He paused, then continued, "However, I do have a favor to ask."
Hu Yishan bowed and said:
"Elder, if it weren’t for you, Qingshui City would have been annihilated by that Wolf Demon, and I would not have escaped with my life. Please, ask anything of me. I dare not disobey!"
Wang Xiao’s voice drifted from the room:
"I will soon be departing on a long journey. I must ask Lord Hu to help arrange a suitable placement for the three people in this room."
He had just secretly analyzed Hu Yishan. Both his character and his strength were commendable, and he was destined for a fortunate future.
If Wenren Hu and the other two were to follow Hu Yishan, they should have a promising future.
He was heading to the Celestial Venerable’s Cave Mansion next to find resources for a breakthrough, so he naturally couldn’t take the three of them with him.
That was why he had revealed his strength—to secure a future for Wenren Hu and the others.
This way, the Cause and Effect between himself and the three of them would be settled.
Hu Yishan’s gaze swept over Wenren Hu and the others. He nodded and said:
"Very well. I will ensure these three are properly taken care of."
Upon hearing this, the expressions of Wenren Hu and Lin AhSan tightened, and they looked toward the room.
"Elder, are you leaving?!"
Although the two of them had a premonition that this Elder Wang would leave sooner or later, they hadn’t expected it to be so soon.
For a moment, an indescribable emotion rose in their hearts.
There was reluctance to part, and also gratitude.
After all, without Wang Xiao, it would have been impossible for them to have opened their Life Springs.
They even had hope of one day cultivating to the Divine Palace, or even the Dragon Transformation Realm!
Wenren Yu, however, pursed her lips, a trace of curiosity in her heart.
’This "Elder" my brother talks about... he’s so small. Can he even walk on his own?!’
However, she knew outsiders were present and, not wanting to expose the "little" Elder, she obediently kept quiet.
Just then, Wang Xiao’s voice resounded in the minds of Wenren Hu and the others.
"All banquets must eventually end. Following me would not necessarily be for the best." frёeωebɳovel.com
"I have already imparted a Technique to you. From now on, you just need to follow the process and continue your Cultivation."
"Perhaps, one day, we will meet again."
Wenren Hu and Lin AhSan sighed lightly, said no more, and simply bowed deeply toward the room.
Neither of them was the sentimental type.
They knew that any attempt to make him stay would be futile.
They could only silently commit the grace of this teaching to their hearts.
CREAK—
The door to the house suddenly swung open from the inside, but there was no longer any trace of Wang Xiao in the room.
Only some unused Elixir Pills were left behind!
Hu Yishan looked at Wenren Hu and the others:
"Since I have been entrusted by the Elder, I will take good care of you. Come with me!"
...
「Celestial Extinction Mountain.」
Located within Celestial Rock County in Ye State.
It stretches a full 13,200 li from east to west.
A great, ceaselessly flowing river runs alongside Celestial Extinction Mountain!
Legend has it that in ages past, the Celestial Venerable, Celestial Extremist, passed away in this very place.
That is how the mountain got its name.
Celestial Extinction Mountain seemed to possess a Magic Power that cut it off from Heaven and Earth. Within its borders, any Cultivator below the Divine Palace Realm was unable to fly.
Therefore, to enter the mountain, one must either travel on foot or by boat.
Precisely because of this characteristic of Celestial Extinction Mountain, it had also become a dwelling for numerous demons and wild beasts.
At that moment, a Battleship approached from the distance and stopped before Celestial Extinction Mountain.
A debonair young man holding a folded fan raised his eyes toward Celestial Extinction Mountain and smiled faintly.
"So the Ten Thousand Beasts Alliance stirred up all those demons to cause such a commotion, all for the Great Power Cave Mansion here. Heh. They might be able to fool the Demon-slaying Bureau, but they can’t fool me!"
As his voice fell, another passenger ship approached from the distance.
A burly man holding a Precepts Saber stood at the ship’s bow. He looked at the debonair young man on the Battleship and let out a chuckle.
"Qian Dongliu, you’re certainly well-informed to have arrived a step ahead of me!"
Qian Dongliu tightened his grip on his folded fan, his eyes narrowing as he looked at the burly man. ƒгeewёbnovel.com
"Wu Qingcang, you really are like a persistent Yin Soul. Your shadow is everywhere."
Wu Qingcang burst out laughing.
"With the Celestial Venerable’s Cave Mansion opening, how could I possibly miss an event this big?!"
Just then, another long cry echoed from the distance.
A disheveled Daoist came crossing the river, his feet planted on a single reed.
"Looks like this humble Daoist isn’t late this time! A Great Power Cave Mansion is opening? Count me in!"
Qian Dongliu and Wu Qingcang both frowned as they looked at the disheveled Daoist.
The powers of Ye State were divided into the One Ancestor, the Two Bureaus, the Three Saints, and the Six Sects.
The One Ancestor referred to the Human Ancestral Land.
Legend has it that in the Human Ancestral Land stands a Great Cauldron, erected by the human ancestors long ago.
The Human Ancestral Land is guarded by many Celestial Venerables, and not even the Divine Race can command them.
The Two Bureaus referred to the Great Ye Kingdom’s Demon-slaying Bureau and Demon Extermination Bureau.
The two bureaus have slain innumerable demons. To join either bureau, one must have reached at least the Meridian Passage Realm.
The number of Foundation Establishment Realm experts within them is simply countless.
There are even several Celestial Venerables.
However, it is said that the Divine Race rules the Great Ye Kingdom from behind the scenes!
