The news that Xing Jue was Nangong Shuiyue's long-lost son quickly spread throughout the Nangong Family. To the disciples of the Nangong Family who held grudges against Xing Jue, this was undoubtedly bad news.
However, it had already become an indisputable fact. Even if they did not want to believe it or accept it, they had to face it.
From today onwards, Xing Jue would undoubtedly become the person with the highest status in the Nangong Family. Even though he was not a disciple of the Nangong Family, just the fact that he was Nangong Shuiyue's son was enough to make everyone in the Nangong Family respect him.
At this moment, in the main hall of the Nangong Family, Nangong Shuiyue was sitting on the main seat. The elders of the Nangong Family, the people from Yufeng Pavilion, Uncle Pan, Ying Huang and the others were sitting on the two sides of the hall. The funniest thing was that the Thunder Leopard King was actually sitting on the side of Yufeng Pavilion.
"Previously, due to some misunderstandings, there was some friction between the Nangong Family and Yufeng Pavilion. This matter did indeed cause both of us to suffer some losses."
"However, now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, I hope that both of us can put down our hatred and continue to be on good terms to stabilize the overall strength of the Eastern Continent Alliance." Nangong Shuiyue sat on the main seat and swept her gaze across the crowd with a smile.
"Since it has been said that it is a misunderstanding, my Imperial Wind Pavilion will not fuss too much about it. As a former alliance faction, we naturally hope that we can have a more harmonious relationship in the future." Upon seeing this, the Grand Elder revealed a faint smile as he expressed his stance.
"Shuiyue, since you have already decided, we have no objections." Behind the Supreme Elder, the Palace Master of the Nangong Family also smiled and said.
Even though he was extremely unwilling, he could not say much about Nangong Shuiyue's decision.
When the Supreme Elder of the Nangong Family was still alive, he had appointed Nangong Shuiyue as the successor of the Nangong Family. Although Nangong Shuiyue didn't become the Palace Master, the power of the Nangong Family was still in her hands.
In terms of strength and prestige, Nangong Shuiyue was far superior to him. In other words, when Nangong Shuiyue wasn't around, he could manage the situation. However, as long as Nangong Shuiyue was around, he was just an empty shell.
From the fact that Nangong Shuiyue was seated at the head of the hall, one could tell who was the true leader of the Nangong Family.
After a short negotiation, the relationship between the Nangong Nobles and the Yufeng Pavilion was completely reconciled. After that, the Highest Elder and the Elders of Yufeng Pavilion led the disciples of Yufeng Pavilion back to Yufeng Pavilion. As for Li Xiaohan and Xiaolong, they accompanied Xing Jue and stayed in the Nangong Family.
After all, Xing Jue had just reunited with Nangong Shuiyue and he wanted to spend more time with his mother, whom he had been longing for for twenty years. Due to the special relationship between Xing Jue and Nangong Shuiyue, the treatment they received in the Nangong Family was quite good.
As for the Lightning Leopard King, because Xing Jue pleaded with Nangong Shuiyue, Nangong Shuiyue did not pursue the matter. However, she made a request, which was to protect Xing Jue for three years. With regards to this request, the Lightning Leopard King readily agreed.
Putting aside the fact that he could regain his freedom without any restrictions, just the fact that he was released by Execution was something that he was very willing to take on.
During his time in the Nangong Family, Xing Jue did not stay idle. Nangong Shuiyue even taught Xing Jue the strongest Martial Skill of the Nangong Family, the Samsara Compass.
Xing Jue had already witnessed the might of this martial skill back then. It was able to block the power of starlight from the Silver Light Starlight Ring. This clearly showed how extraordinary this martial skill was. A High Grade Earth Rank Martial Skill was indeed worthy of its reputation.
The reason why Nangong Shuiyue taught Xing Jue the Samsara Compass was because the Samsara Compass had another special ability. It could be infused with Soul Energy and a powerful Soul Energy could unleash the full potential of the Samsara Compass.
In other words, even though the Reincarnation Compass used by the Nangong family's palace master was extremely powerful, it was not the Reincarnation Compass's strongest state. Not to mention him, even Nangong Shuiyue would not be able to unleash the Reincarnation Compass's full power.
However, Xing Jue might be able to unleash the full potential of the Samsara Compass with his special Soul Energy. Therefore, Nangong Shuiyue wanted to teach the Samsara Compass to Xing Jue. Due to Xing Jue's special status, no one objected to Nangong Shuiyue teaching Xing Jue the Samsara Compass.
After all, Xing Jue could be considered as half a member of the Nangong Family. Moreover, after a period of adaptation, not only did everyone let go of their grudges against Xing Jue, they even started to think highly of Xing Jue.
After all, the Nangong Family did not have a genius like Xing Jue. Since Xing Jue had already formed a relationship with the Nangong Family, the Nangong Family would naturally bask in the glory when Xing Jue achieved something extraordinary in the future.
Under Nangong Shuiyue's personal guidance, Xing Jue successfully learned the Samsara Compass in a short two months.
In a training space of the Nangong Family, Xing Jue and Nangong Shuiyue were standing in a desolate desert.
At this moment, Xing Jue slowly took a few steps forward. Xing Jue spread out his right hand and raised it up slowly. A dark energy rapidly condensed in Xing Jue's hand. As the energy condensed, it rotated rapidly. Although it was only around a meter in size, the buzzing sound emitted from it was extremely ear-piercing.
This was the Samsara Compass that Xing Jue had learned. Not only could the Samsara Compass be used as a defensive martial skill, it could also be used as an offensive martial skill. Moreover, the way to unleash the two martial skills was also different. Back then, the Nangong Family's Palace Master used a defensive martial skill, while Xing Jue used an offensive martial skill.
Moreover, due to the fact that Xing Jue had infused his Soul Energy into the Samsara Compass, the Samsara Compass's outer appearance had undergone an obvious change. Not only its outer appearance, but even its essence had undergone a significant change.
"Swoosh ~"
"Hum hum hum ~"
At this moment, Xing Jue suddenly swung his arm forward and the Samsara Compass in his hand shot out. When it left Xing Jue's palm, it rapidly expanded, reaching a terrifying size of several dozen meters.
The gigantic Samsara Compass rapidly rotated. As it rotated, violent gales danced in the air, sweeping up waves of sand in the desert. As the sand filled the air, it obstructed their vision. However, the dark Samsara Compass was still clearly visible.
"Rumble ~ ~ ~ ~"
Suddenly, a deafening explosion rang out. At this moment, the ground beneath Xing Jue's feet began to violently tremble. The energy ripples from the Samsara Compass swept out, turning the entire space into a sea of sand.
"Hum ~"
At this moment, everything in front of him suddenly disappeared. At this moment, Xing Jue discovered to his astonishment that he was in an enormous hall. The sudden change left Xing Jue at a loss as to what to do.
"Jue 'er, congratulations on successfully mastering the Reincarnation Compass. The power of the Reincarnation Compass that you have unleashed has already exceeded the limits of the Cultivation Space. Therefore, this Cultivation Space has been destroyed." Nangong Shuiyue walked to Xing Jue's side and explained with a smile as she stared at the bewildered Xing Jue.
"Thank you mother."
After hearing Nangong Shuiyue's words, Xing Jue came to a sudden realization. His originally blank expression instantly turned into one of excitement. Such a powerful martial skill would definitely be Xing Jue's trump card in the future.
"Huu ~"
Suddenly, Xing Jue felt his vision darken. His body uncontrollably weakened, and he actually collapsed.
"Jue 'er, are you alright?"
Nangong Shuiyue hurriedly supported Xing Jue, who was about to fall, and asked anxiously.
"Mother, I'm fine."
"It's just that I'm not strong enough. In order to unleash the Samsara Compass's full power, I overused my Soul Strength," Xing Jue said with a forced smile when he saw Nangong Shuiyue's anxious expression.
"Sigh, your temper is exactly the same as your father's."
After hearing Xing Jue's words, Nangong Shuiyue came to a sudden realization. With Xing Jue's current strength, it was indeed a little difficult for him to use the Samsara Compass.
After Xing Jue successfully cultivated the Samsara Compass, Xing Jue made a shocking request to Nangong Shuiyue. He wanted to go to the Towering Sky Region.
"Xing Jue, the Towering Sky Region is not the Eastern Continent. There are far too many powerful factions there, and there are countless tyrannical figures. Even if my Nangong Family were to be placed in the Towering Sky Region, it would only be a mid-tier faction," Nangong Shuiyue told Xing Jue about the terrifying aspects of the Towering Sky Region in her palace.
"Mother, I know that the Towering Sky Region is different. However, it is precisely because of this that I yearn for it so much. Even if I continue to stay in the Eastern Continent, it will be very difficult for me to improve. It is better for me to enter the Towering Sky Region as soon as possible. Perhaps, I will be able to grow better there." Seeing Nangong Shuiyue's attitude, Xing Jue said with a smile. His face was filled with unswerving confidence.
"Sigh ~ It seems that you have already made up your mind."
"Since that is the case, I will not stop you." Looking at Xing Jue, Nangong Shuiyue seemed to see Dugu Changyi in the past. An indescribable confidence entered her heart, making her feel that Xing Jue would definitely succeed.
"Thank you, mother." Seeing this, Xing Jue knelt on the ground in front of Nangong Shuiyue.
After that, Xing Jue accompanied Nangong Shuiyue for a few more days. Then, he led everyone to the Yufeng Pavilion. Because Li Xiaohan insisted on accompanying Xing Jue to the Towering Sky Region, he had to bid farewell to the Supreme Elder and the others.
Xing Jue also wanted to bid farewell to Elder Feng and the others. After all, if it wasn't for this old man, he wouldn't be where he is today. Perhaps, he would still be the manager of a small inn in a remote town outside of the Cloud Sect City, a nobody that couldn't be any more ordinary.
When they returned to the Yufeng Pavilion, Xing Jue and Li Xiaohan were surprised to see that the Supreme Elder and Li Xiaohan's grandmother had already reconciled. Furthermore, the two old men no longer planned to travel the world, but stayed in the Yufeng Pavilion to take care of the situation.
Furthermore, the two of them were extremely supportive of Xing Jue and Li Xiaohan's decision to head to the Towering Sky Region. They felt that with Xing Jue and Li Xiaohan's talent, they shouldn't stay here. Only in the Towering Sky Region could they truly soar.
What surprised Xing Jue the most was that after his master, Elder Feng, heard the news, he used traveling the continent as an excuse to travel together with Xing Jue. However, Xing Jue knew that his master was just worried about him.
Putting aside the fact that Elder Feng was a high-level Combat King, just his intention alone was enough to move Xing Jue. Therefore, Xing Jue happily agreed to Elder Feng's request.
Even the Ying Huang and Uncle Pan had decided to accompany Xing Jue to the Towering Sky Region. This was undoubtedly great news for Xing Jue. He had just arrived at the Towering Sky Region, but he already had the help of so many experts. This made Xing Jue want to establish his own power in the Towering Sky Region.
At the foot of the Floating Clouds Mountain, Xing Jue, Li Xiaohan, Su Lin 'er, Elder Cang, Xiaoqian, Xiaolong, the Lightning Leopard King, Uncle Pan, the Ying Huang, the Elders of Yufeng Pavilion, and all the disciples and elders of Yufeng Pavilion were gathered here.
That was because today, the hero of Yufeng Pavilion, the most outstanding disciple, Xing Jue, would be leaving Yufeng Pavilion for the Towering Sky Region, the central region of the Sky Martial Continent.
"Xing Jue, I'll leave Xiao Han to you. If she's bullied in the future, don't blame me for not sparing you." Standing in front of Xing Jue and Li Xiaohan, the Grand Elder said to Xing Jue with a smile on his face.
"Grandfather, Grandmother, rest assured. I'll definitely take good care of Xiao Han." Looking at the two old men in front of him, Xing Jue vowed.
After a brief farewell, Xing Jue brought Li Xiaohan, Su Lin 'er, Xiaoqian, Elder Cang, the Ying Huang, Uncle Pan, Xiaolong, the Lightning Leopard King, and his master, Elder Feng, and set off for the Towering Sky Region.
