“After True Person Mingzhu and I completed the Old Weaver of Destiny’s game, she gave it to me as a ‘reward’, though she also warned me not to use it too much if possible, because I might become dependent on it. But…… the situation is urgent right now. I need to stabilize my cultivation as quickly as possible and raise it to the middle stage of the Seventh Layer.”

Hearing this, True Person Duanyue’s expression eased slightly,

“That Old Weaver of Destiny Great Being truly treated you quite generously. What he said is indeed correct. Normally speaking, this object should not be used too much.” He paused and looked at the crystal stone in his hand, “Could…… you let your Senior Brother Qi absorb a little of it? It might help with the injuries to his Dantian.”

Naturally, Long Tao would not refuse. He had always believed that favors between people were the truly important form of wealth. Material wealth could be earned at any time, but opportunities to make others owe him a major favor often vanished in the blink of an eye. For example, right now, with no reinforcements from the sect, his Immortal Crystal Stone was one of a kind, which made the weight of this favor even greater.

After obtaining Long Tao’s consent, the True Person handed the Immortal Crystal Stone to Qi Muhang and said,

“Absorb only a single wisp at the absolute minimum. Do not take any more than that.”

Qi Muhang obediently placed his hand on it. Very soon…… his expression turned to shock, and even his originally somewhat pale complexion improved slightly. He immediately sat cross-legged and circulated his cultivation method. After regulating his breathing for half a quarter of an hour, he stood and gave Long Tao a solemn salute.

“Many thanks for the gift, Junior Brother Long. If we can return to the sect in the future, I will definitely repay you many times over.”

“Senior Brother Qi, there’s no need to be so polite. At a time like this, of course we should support one another and get through this crisis together.”

He suddenly remembered something else and asked,

“Right, Senior Brother Qi, there’s something I forgot to ask yesterday. Why were you hiding in Sword-Humming City? Wouldn’t you be discovered?”

“It was truly an act of desperation.” Qi Muhang sighed softly, “Xiao Wuji has two strongholds in this world. Old Master Tian and I already destroyed one of them. As for the other…… it’s in the Luo Dynasty’s Capital, probably inside the imperial palace, so most of his subordinates are concentrated in the Capital and the Daoist temple on Nine-Xia Mountain.”

Then he raised his head and smiled bitterly,

“Sword-Humming City lies between those two places and is also a major waterway hub, so I could constantly receive information from both locations. Moreover, since it is a major city of this world, I thought the newly dispatched Immortal Venerable from the sect might come here to visit, so I continued lying low here. As for whether Xiao Wuji’s subordinates would discover me…… sigh…… I was already half-dead like this, so all I could do was leave it to Heaven and take things one step at a time.”

True Person Duanyue nodded and continued,

“Your choice wasn’t wrong. In fact…… I really had planned to come visit the City Lord here two months from now, but if things had truly dragged on until then, I’m afraid everything would already have been too late. In any case…… since we’ve confirmed that Xiao Wuji is very likely in the Capital, we need to hurry there as soon as possible. If he truly manages to make both Divine Swords completely Acknowledge Him as Master, the situation will become impossible to salvage.”

The three quickly left the city and reached the official road leading toward the Capital,

As they walked, Long Tao asked,

“True Person, once we reach the Capital, are we going directly to the imperial palace to find him?”

“No, we must first understand the situation.” True Person Duanyue shook his head, “I need to find someone first. He definitely knows the inside story.”

“Who?”

“Heavenly Python Spear, Yue Chuanyun.”

“Uh…… you know him?”

“I should.” The corners of True Person Duanyue’s lips rose, revealing a meaningful smile, “Back when I first swam here through the Ruins of Return, I once accepted a disciple in this world. His name was Yue Chuanyun. If this Grandmaster known as ‘Heavenly Python Spear’ isn’t that brat…… then as his Master, I’ll be very disappointed.”

……

At the same Shichen that Long Tao and the other two were rushing toward the Capital, an unfamiliar man and woman suddenly appeared outside the Tian Clan Residence.

Butler Old Qi was certain that the Tian Clan had never had any dealings with these two and was just about to politely refuse them when the Adopted Son Xiao Jikun hurried over and called out,

“Old Qi, these two are my honored guests. Invite them in.”

“Young Master? This……” A trace of unease passed through Old Qi’s heart. The auras of those two were deep and restrained, and their strength was clearly above his. If he let them into the residence……

But in the end, he did not dare disobey the Young Master and could only lead them into the Front Courtyard. As they walked, he caught sight of the enormous object tightly wrapped in velvet cloth behind the man’s back and felt even more uneasy.

At this moment, everyone in the Tian Clan had already gathered inside the Main Hall according to Xiao Jikun’s earlier instructions. All of them were puzzled. Aside from the last time when that bastard Tian Renfeng returned home and they had no choice, such an arrangement where the entire family gathered to welcome someone was normally reserved only for the arrival of honored guests. But today…… what honored guests were there?

When the man and woman appeared at the doorway, everyone in the hall froze.

Both were tall and carried extraordinary bearing. At a glance, one could tell they came from an aristocratic background and possessed martial arts cultivation. Even more strangely, they were personally led inside by Xiao Jikun, the Adopted Son who had always been obedient and well-behaved. The Tian Clan’s Old Master and Madam exchanged glances, secretly delighted. As expected of the child they had raised with such affection, he had actually formed connections with people of this caliber outside, adding valuable connections to the clan.

The two were just about to rise and welcome them when that man and woman walked straight toward the seats of honor without the slightest regard for etiquette. Before anyone could react, an invisible surge of force suddenly erupted outward, sending the Old Master and Madam flying backward. They crashed against the side of the hall and simultaneously coughed up a mouthful of blood.

Meanwhile, that man and woman had already calmly taken the seats of honor.

Amid the deathly silence filling the hall, Xiao Jikun lifted the hem of his robe and knelt beneath everyone’s horrified gazes, bowing low as he said,

“This child greets Mother and Uncle. You…… have finally arrived.”

“Mm.” The woman lowered her gaze toward him as though looking down upon an ant. There was not the slightest trace of maternal love in either her eyes or her tone, “You’ve worked hard during this time. This residence…… is the place you prepared for us to stay?”

“How could such a cramped and shabby dwelling possibly be worthy of Mother’s honored presence.” Xiao Jikun remained prostrated on the ground, his voice filled with extreme flattery, “Once Father’s great plan succeeds, Mother will naturally become the mistress of the imperial palace. This place…… is merely somewhere to rest temporarily.”

Hearing this, the corners of the woman’s lips curved into a faint, ambiguous smile. She said nothing further and merely casually surveyed the furnishings in the hall, as though genuinely evaluating the quality of this “temporary resting place”. As for the man beside her, the person Xiao Jikun had called “Uncle”, he had not spoken a single word from beginning to end. His cold gaze swept across the terrified and bewildered members of the Tian Clan below as though he were looking at livestock awaiting slaughter.

Only then did Xiao Jikun slowly rise and brush nonexistent dust from his knees. He turned around to face those familiar faces, the “father” and “mother” who had raised him for more than ten years, and the older sisters who had once affectionately called him “Brother Kun”. At this moment, all of their faces were drained of blood, their widened eyes filled with fear and confusion.

He suddenly smiled. That smile was no longer the gentle and obedient expression the Tian Clan remembered, but one steeped in undisguised mockery and delight.

“Everyone,” he began, his voice loud and clear, without the slightest trace of his usual sickly appearance. The Butler and several guards in the Postnatal Realm felt their hearts jolt. This Young Master, who had presented himself as a medicine-dependent invalid all year round, was actually a deeply concealed Postnatal Realm expert.

“All these years, I truly must thank you blind fools for your ‘care’.”

Madam Tian struggled to rise, still coughing blood from her throat,

“Kun…… Kun’er! What, what is the meaning of this?! These two…… who exactly are they……”

“What does it mean?” Xiao Jikun raised an eyebrow and slowly walked over to Mother Tian, looking down upon this “mother” who had once placed such great hopes on him and had even intended to hand him the clan’s noble title.

“It means that I can finally stop suppressing my disgust every day, forcing my voice into that tone while staring at those two old faces of yours and calling you Father and Mother!” He suddenly raised his arm and pointed toward the woman seated in the place of honor, “Look at my birth mother! With such bearing and elegance, how could a stupid woman like you, who couldn’t even keep her own biological son, possibly compare to her?!”

The moment those words came out, the entire hall erupted into an uproar. Several Maids who had always admired Xiao Jikun seemed to be struck by lightning, covering their mouths as they stared wide-eyed, unable to reconcile this nearly twisted face before them with the gentle and refined Young Master in their memories.

“Heh…… out of everyone in this Tian Clan, Tian Renfeng is actually the only one I envy, and the only one I think anything of. It’s almost funny. Whenever I called you Father, Mother, or Elder Sister, I had to suppress the urge to vomit, but only when I called him Elder Brother did I feel even a little sincerity.” Xiao Jikun’s voice was filled with mockery as his gaze swept across everyone,

“He was able to decisively abandon all of you burdens and take Old Kui with him to find his own path. But me? I still had to stay behind and take over this pile of mud from him! Mud!! Mud!! Mud!!!” His voice abruptly rose until he was nearly roaring. His right foot slammed heavily onto the ground, directly shattering the stone tiles.

“A whole family of filthy trash. Do any of you know how hard I’ve had to endure all these years?!”

At this moment, Xiao Jikun seemed nearly possessed by madness, his voice filled entirely with pent-up venting, frightening everyone into silence.

“Everyone says that he went to perform Military Service in my place, that he went to suffer in my stead, but how many fucking people know! I was the one who stayed behind and suffered in his place! Ah!!! But now it’s over…… finally over…… finally! I’m finally free! I don’t have to call you Father, Mother, or Elder Sister anymore! Hahahahaha!!”
