Cultivation Through Artifacts

The man looked happy that Khal was not the type to hold grudges thus bowed even deeper before straightening his back.

"I have quite a few things in my mind at the moment, but before that, please let me introduce myself."

Then, the man put his right hand above his heart and tilted his head a little bit down in a respected manner.

"My name is Danhe Maygor and I am currently the leader of the Blue Shell Corps in Seashell City. As there is no Cultivators' Association in our city, I was given the responsibility to monitor everything inside this city and protect the citizens from danger."

Listening to what Danhe talked about, Khal nodded calmly without saying a single word and waited for Danhe to continue speaking.

Danhe seeing that Khal showed no reaction at all as though he heard nothing shocking at all couldn't help but admire him slightly before waving his hand and summoning an orange card which he extended toward Khal with respect.

Khal took a quick glance at the orange card with a slightly raised brow before shifting his gaze at Danhe, seemingly confused about what that card was.

Danhe noticed this change, hence why he quickly smiled and said, "This is called a Border Pass. With this, you will be able to travel among continents and cities without restrictions or limitations, meaning you can travel as many times as you wish without paying a single coin."

"Furthermore, from this moment on, if you ever need something, you can always find me here, in Seashell City," said Danhe and handed the golden card to Khal.

Khal accepted the card with a nonchalant nod, but deep inside he felt joy.

"I see, thank you," said Khal after a moment of silence and glanced at the teleportation array on the side

"Then I will use this pass right away."

"Sure. Please follow me then."

Danhe then led Khal onto the platform where he made him stand in the very center before taking out a purple crystal from his spatial ring and smashing it into purple powder.

"Then, I hope the next time we meet each other, such an incident won't happen again," Danhe said, and without hesitation dropped the purple powder from his hand onto the carvings.

Swish!

In a flash, the carvings on the platform lit up with purple light before it enveloped Khal's body, teleporting him away without any mishaps.

Once Khal was teleported away, Danhe shook his head helplessly before his face turned deadly serious and turned to look at the guard on the ground.

"As for you. I hope you are well aware of what will happen with you now."

"S-Sir... I just..." the guard tried to come up with an excuse that could save him from his demise, but alas, no matter what he said, he was dragged away like a criminal by the rest of the guards and Danhe.

Somewhere else, in the center of a city that looked no different than the rest on the Southern Continent, a platform similar to the one in Seashell City lit up with purple light before Khal walked out of it with a calm expression.

"So this is the western continent, huh?" Khal inhaled from the fresh air through his nose and smiled.

However, just as he was about to leave the platform, suddenly several people in black armor appeared before him, each pointing the tip of their weapons at him with a stiff complexion.

"Hm?"

Khal raised his brow when he saw this, but as he noticed that each cultivator before him was no stronger than those on the Seventh Cultivation Stage he just shook his head and sighed.

"And now what?"

While Khal remained still, wondering why he was greeted in such a fashion, a woman in a long crimson dress that looked rather luxurious, walked to the front, her slender fingers holding a golden fan before her face, only revealing her pair of sky blue eyes that seemed particularly enchanting for some reason.

"What is your name kid?" the woman asked in a low, but crystal clear voice as she mysteriously gazed at Khal, her thoughts unknown.

Khal seeing the woman frowned slightly and asked, "Shouldn't one introduce oneself before asking for others' names?"

When the woman heard Khal's question her pretty eyes widened scarcely, even flashing with surprise by how calm Khal acted even though he was surrounded by numerous powerful cultivators. 

"The audacity! If you dare to speak so disrespectfully before Madam Rose ever again, I swear I will cut your hea-" one of the men that pointed their weapons were about to warn Khal to behave, but just as he could have finished talking, suddenly a low chuckle was heard from the side, halting his words abruptly.

"Haha! You are indeed interesting. Just as he told me." the woman called Madam Rose began to laugh, and with style she closed her fan, revealing a smile that could easily start wars between nations.

Khal seeing Madam Rose's strange and unexpected behavior frowned even deeper and waited patiently to see what will happen.

And to his and everyone else's surprise, Madam Rose grabbed both sides of her dress and after gently raising them she bent her knees and bowed with grace.

"Please forgive my manners and let me introduce myself properly. My name is Rose Kenmer, head of the Kenmer Family. I came here to make sure it was you who she was talking about, but it seems it is indeed you, Khal Nevio."

"She?" Khal now felt even confused than before, not understanding just who Madam Rose was talking about and how she knew who he was.

Madam Rose seemed to read his thoughts thus quickly ordered her men to lower their weapons before saying with a warm smile, "I don't want to confuse you any further neither spoil your surprise, so I hope you will follow me back. I promise you will definitely not regret it if you do."
