The Sun had just risen, shedding down faint golden light that illuminated the purple bamboo forest.
A gentle breeze passed by, rustling the bamboo forest and scattering the leaves in the air.
Tang Thirteen's expression was calm as her white robe fluttered in the wind. Like a fairy, she was out of this world and could step on the clouds and fly away at any moment.
Ling Xian stood behind her with a complex expression. His heart was filled with hundreds of emotions.
When he first met Tang Thirteen, she was merely a 12 or 13 year old girl. Innocent, innocent, lively, and cute.
In the blink of an eye, many years had passed. She had grown into a beauty that could cause the downfall of a country. Sadly, she was no longer innocent and no longer lively.
"It's been so many years. How have you been?" Ling Xian softly sighed, breaking the silence. "This question is pointless. I refuse to answer."
Tang Thirteen's lips parted slightly as she turned around to look at Ling Xian. "Congratulations on breaking through to the fifth level and becoming the strongest in Yunzhou."
"The strongest …"
Ling Xian smiled but didn't say anything.
This title wasn't bad. He also had the capabilities to match it. He was without a doubt the strongest in Yunzhou. However, his heart was higher. Being the strongest in Yunzhou was not enough to satisfy him.
"Why did you suddenly think of visiting me?" Tang Thirteen played with her bangs. Though she had lost her liveliness, she looked even prettier and more charming.
"Because I am going to a place very far away. I don't even know if I will be able to return."
Ling Xian was silent for a while, "That's why I came to the Tang Clan to see you."
"Where are you going?" Tang Thirteen frowned.
"The World of Immortality."
Ling Xian spoke softly, "That place is similar to the Taoism community. However, it is stronger than the Taoism community in all aspects. Only by going there can I continue my cultivation and continue to climb towards the peak. "
"I see."
Tang Thirteen nodded, "To you, that place is a good place. It is also a place you must go."
"Yes. After I leave here, I will head to the World of Immortality. I don't know when I will return. "
Ling Xian softly sighed. Though he didn't have many relatives, he had many things to worry about in the Taoism community. It was hard for him to not want to leave.
However, he knew very well that if he wanted to uncover the truth and step onto the peak, then he must go to the World of Immortality!
"Can you … bring me along?"
Tang Thirteen was silent for a while. Her limpid eyes stared at Ling Xian and flickered with hope.
"This … I'm afraid I can't."
Ling Xian shook his head, "It's not that I don't want to take you there. It's just that with your cultivation level, even if I protect you, you won't be able to arrive safely."
"Is that so? Forget it then."
Disappointment flashed across Tang Thirteen's eyes. Very quickly, however, she collected herself and smiled, "I won't cause you any more trouble. I don't want to be a burden to you."
Hearing this, Ling Xian softly sighed. It wasn't that he didn't want to take Tang Thirteen with him, it was just that there was nothing he could do.
The Immortal of Alchemy had said that only cultivators of the fifth level and above can pass through the entrance to the City of Sin safely. In other words, if a Nascent Soul cultivator were to enter, there would only be one result: death.
Even Feng Jiu Ge, who was already a Nascent Soul Cultivator, couldn't pass through the entrance.
Therefore, why would Ling Xian bring Tang Thirteen? Wasn't that pushing her into the fire pit?
"I wish you all the best. I also hope you can shine in the new world and carve out a brand new path for yourself."
Tang Thirteen smiled brightly. She was so beautiful that she could topple a city.
"I will."
Ling Xian nodded softly. After a moment of silence, he said, "If I have the chance, I will come back to see you."
Tang Thirteen smiled brightly like a flower, "You said it. Don't go back on your words."
"Since I said it, I have to fulfill my promise."
Ling Xian warmly smiled and patted Tang Thirteen's little head, "I am leaving now. Take care."
Then, he slowly turned around and marched forward.
However, he had only taken one step when he felt two white jade-like arms wrapped around his waist.
"I will wait for you to come back. Remember, don't be too long."
Tang Thirteen hugged Ling Xian from behind and pressed her face against his back. It was as if she was talking to him, but it was also as if she was talking to herself.
Hearing this, Ling Xian was silent for a while before uttering out one word.
"Okay."
Just then, Tang Thirteen revealed a bright smile and let go of Ling Xian's arms, "Go, open your arms and fly higher. I look forward to the day you rule the world. "
Hearing this, Ling Xian nodded and no longer hesitated. In a flash, he disappeared without a trace.
Half an hour later, he and Feng Jiu Ge left the Tang Clan and arrived at a mountain peak.
"Master, it is time for me to go."
Feng Jiu Ge said softly, her eyes were full of unwillingness.
"There is nothing we can do about it. That entrance is filled with turbulent space. Only those of the fifth level and above can pass through safely."
Ling Xian sighed, "Even I cannot guarantee that I can pass. Of course I cannot protect you."
"I understand, Master. I am about to go see my parents anyway."
Feng Jiu Ge was understanding and smiled, "It's been so many years, I miss them."
"Okay, then let's part ways here. I will go to Yuezhou, you go back to the 36 islands."
Ling Xian grinned, "Remember, say hi to Xiao Qi for me."
"Master, do not worry, I will."
Feng Jiu Ge smiled brightly, "When I am capable enough, I will go to the Eternal Realm to find you."
"Okay, I will wait for you."
Ling Xian softly grinned, "Go. Have a safe journey."
"Master, take care."
Feng Jiu Ge looked at Ling Xian deeply, full of unwillingness. Then, she transformed back into her original form and left.
"I am the only one left. Another lonely journey is about to begin."
Watching Feng Jiu Ge leave, Ling Xian softly sighed. But very quickly, he retracted his sadness and his expression turned determined.
Whether it was to answer questions or to cultivate, he had to go to the Eternal Realm. Therefore, no matter how bumpy and difficult the road ahead was, he was fearless.
"The Eternal Realm, here I come."
The corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up as he stared at the undying Sun. His eyes flashed with anticipation. Then, he extended his Winged Blitz and headed towards Yuezhou.
Once he gets there, he will be able to enter the Eternal Realm and begin a new journey.
That place will be a brand new stage and a stage of the highest level.
Just thinking about it made him look forward to it!
…
The distance between Yuezhou and Yunzhou was very far. So far that many people can't get there in their entire lives.
However, to Ling Xian, who has become one of the top powerhouses in the Taoism community, this distance was nothing.
Therefore, he only spent three months before he once again stepped foot on Yuezhou's soil. Then, he didn't stop. After another half a month, he arrived at the Ao Xian House.
When he arrived at the Ao Xian House in his memory, his expression darkened.
Because there was no longer the Ao Xian House. It wasn't that he remembered wrong, it was just a pile of ruins.
This infuriated Ling Xian!
