Liu Yijian took Xu Ning’s medicinal pills.
He held the porcelain bottle tightly in his hand.
“Xu Ning, you will return to your sect in State Jifeng, right?”
Liu Yijian put away the pills and asked.
Xu Ning had told Liu Yijian about his experience.
“I have to go back.”
Xu Ning said, “I plan to stay at home for a few more days. After that, I will go to Yunying City before returning to State Jifeng.”
With Xu Ning’s current situation, he couldn’t stay in a small place like Kangyun County forever.
It was impossible for Xu Ning to obtain sufficient resources here to improve.
The stronger Xu Ning was, the more resource abundant his environment had to be.
“Speaking of which…”
Xu Ning pondered for a moment. “Senior Liu, I have a request.”
“Please ask.”
After hearing Xu Ning’s words, Liu Yijian’s expression became serious.
He didn’t know how to thank Xu Ning just now, but now that Xu Ning was asking him for something, Liu Yijian obviously had to seize the opportunity.
“After I leave Kangyun County, there will be no masters to guard the village behind me. If possible, I hope you can take care of the Tao Village and Kangyun County when I leave my hometown.”
Xu Ning said his request.
Xu Ning was most worried about his family’s safety.
“Of course.”
Liu Yijian agreed readily. In his opinion, this was a trivial matter.
“In a few days, I will refurbish this place, then move into the Tao Village.”
Liu Yijian continued, “I have been away from the mortal world for too long. This is the best chance for me to integrate into the mortal world.”
“Thank you, Senior Liu.”
Xu Ning smiled, a weight was finally off his shoulders.
If Liu Yijian personally oversaw the Tao Village, then the Tao Village and even the entire Kangyun County would be taken care of.
After all, Liu Yijian was a void realm fifth stage martial artist. Xu Ning would feel completely at ease with him around.
Afterwards, the two continued their conversation until Xu Ning thought it was finally time for him to leave.
After returning to the Tao Village, Xu Ning began to teach Tao Tao and Guo Ye martial arts.
This kind of life made Xu Ning feel relaxed and comfortable.
However, the comfortable time was coming to an end.
Half a month later, Xu Ning chose to leave home again and go to Yunying City.
As a member of State Feiyun and a high level void realm warrior, Xu Ning had a deep desire to visit Yunying City and the Source Sect.
This time, he would take the opportunity to learn more about Yunying City and the Source Sect while also sending the Wei family members home.
Although Tao Yunchuan, Xu Lian, Tao Tao, and Guo Ye knew that Xu Ning would leave, they were still reluctant to part.
But compared to the previous time they separated, they were less worried this time.
They all knew that Xu Ning’s growth was beyond their ability to worry about.
Before leaving, Xu Ning left behind enough medicinal pills.
These medicinal pills would lay a martial arts foundation for Tao Tao, aid Guo Ye’s martial arts advancements, and improve his sister and brother-in-law’s physique.
After these making arrangements and welcoming Liu Yijian, Xu Ning took Wei Changqing, Wei Bingqi, Wei Binglin, and Wei Zicheng to Yunying City.
…
Two days went by.
Kangyun County was not close to Yunying City. But because they rode on Little Gray, the void realm demon beast, they traveled extremely fast.
Traveling day and night, they reached Yunying City in just two days.
“So this is Yunying City…”
Xu Ning could see the tall city gates of Yunying City. It was a crowded city.
This was the first time Xu Ning had seen such a prosperous scene.
“Finally home!”
Wei Changqing and the others were overjoyed.
The three people who were abducted felt it more clearly.
When they were imprisoned, they thought about Yunying City countless times in their sleep.
They thought they would never be able to return, but they had finally returned home.
“Sir, please stop!”
Xu Ning wanted to ride Little Gray and fly directly into the city.
But just as they were about to cross the city wall, several flying demon beasts on the city wall took off and flew over with several Black Armored Guards on them. They stopped Xu Ning and the others.
“Sir, I am a Black Armored Guard of Yunying City.”
The leader of the flying demon beast took the lead to explain his identity. He then persuaded, “This may be your first time in Yunying City, so you might not know the rules. In Yunying City, unless you have a designated certificate of identity from the Source Sect, you are not allowed to fly into the city. Also, your flying demon beast is also not allowed to enter the city. I hope you can abide by this rule.”
The leader of the Black Armored Guards had a humble attitude.
He knew very well that someone who could control a void realm demon beast was definitely not ordinary.
Moreover, the young man in front of him intimidated him with just one glance from his eyes, which made the leading Black Armored Guard feel extremely afraid.
“As expected of the Source Sect, the rules are indeed strict.”
Xu Ning looked at the Black Armored Guard leader.
This person was a void realm second stage true qi realm martial artist, but he was only the leader of the city gate guards, which made Xu Ning feel emotional about the Source Sect’s strength.
‘The difference between the Black Armored Guards in Yunying City and the Black Armored Guards in ordinary county cities is huge.’
Xu Ning thought to himself.
“Since this is the rule of the Source Sect, then as an outsider, I should abide by it.”
Xu Ning did not force his way in.
For him, there was no need to fight with the Black Armored Guards here just to show off his status as a strong warrior.
The leader of the Black Armored Guards was relieved when he saw that Xu Ning was so easy to talk to.
Prior to this, many masters from other states traveled here, and some of them just scoffed at the rules of Yunying City. They got into conflicts with the Black Armored Guards, and even fought.
It was rare for people to take the initiative to be understanding.
“Thank you.”
The Black Armored Guard leader said with cupped fists.
Afterwards, Xu Ning asked Little Gray to land outside the city. After the five of them came down, Xu Ning asked Little Gray to find a place to stay outside the city.
Before leaving, Xu Ning gave Little Gray a few medicinal pills that had demon beast characteristics.
Little Grey was now a demon beast at the peak of the void realm elementary stage. Breaking through to the void realm intermediate stage was right within its grasp.
Xu Ning gave these medicinal pills to help Little Gray cross over this barrier.
After eating the medicinal pills, Little Gray also felt that its advancement was imminent, making it extremely happy.
After rubbing its head on Xu Ning’s body, Little Gray spread its wings and flew away to find a place to complete its advancement.
“Xu Ning, these are the rules of the Source Sect, don’t mind them.”
Wei Changqing was afraid that Xu Ning would hold a grudge so he explained to him, “Even members of the Wei family have to follow the rules of Yunying City. Everyone is treated the same.”
Although Wei Changqing knew that Xu Ning was open-minded, he was still worried that Xu Ning would feel unhappy.
After all, the younger a powerful warrior was, the more arrogant and decisive they were.
Most people would be dissatisfied if they were stopped and made to abide by their requests.
“It’s fine. Since it’s a rule, I’ll just follow it.”
Xu Ning didn’t care.
Seeing this, Wei Changqing was relieved. “In this case, let’s quickly enter the city.”
“When we were still in Kangyun County, I already told my family that we will return in a few days. They should have been waiting for us.”
Wei Bingqi said.
After that, they entered the city.
Walking on the wide streets, Xu Ning felt the rich and colorful life of the residents in Yunying City.
“The Source Sect is truly unique to have set the location of their sect in this prosperous city.”
According to what Xu Ning knew, in State Jifeng, almost all sects, like the Yuelan Sect, would build their sect in a place with very few people.
Under the Wei family members’ lead, Xu Ning arrived at the Wei Mansion.
“Tell the Family Head that we are back.”
Wei Changqing said to the guard with a trembling voice.
“You are…”
The guard looked at Wei Changqing, then his eyes widened as he looked at the people behind him.
“Third Young Master, Young Master Sun, Young Miss Sun, you… you are all back!”
The guard was an old man from the Wei family, so he recognized their identities with a single look.
“I’ll report it right away!”
The guard quickly entered the mansion.
“Xu Ning, please.”
Wei Changqing took the initiative to welcome Xu Ning.
Xu Ning followed Wei Changqing through the gate and entered the mansion.
Halfway through, more than a dozen people suddenly ran into the mansion.
The person in the lead had white hair and a beard, but he looked energetic and tall.
His face was similar to Wei Changqing’s.
“Changqing, Binglin, Zicheng!”
The old man looked excited, and he quickly walked forward.
“Dad.”
“Grandpa.”
Wei Changqing and the others finally reunited with their family.
After the reunion, Wei Changqing seemed to remember something. He quickly grabbed the old man’s sleeve and brought him to Xu Ning. “Dad, this is Xu Ning. He saved us.”
“Greetings, Family Head Wei.”
Xu Ning cupped his fists.
When Wei Changqing and the others reunited with each other, Xu Ning stood aside quietly.
“Little Friend Xu Ning!”
The old man quickly cupped his fists with a sincere attitude. “I am Wei Xingfeng, the Head of the Wei family. Thank you so much for saving the members of the Wei family. You are our Wei family’s great benefactor.”
Wei Bingqi’s letter to the family had already explained the situation.
Wei Xingfeng not only knew that Xu Ning had saved them, but also knew that Xu Ning was a martial artist in the same realm as him.
His attitude towards Xu Ning was 70% gratitude and 30% admiration.
“You’re too kind, Family Head Wei.”
Xu Ning said, “Uncle Wei took good care of me in the past, and Binglin and Zicheng are my friends. There is no such thing as a benefactor between us.”
After Xu Ning said this, Wei Xingfeng and the members of the Wei family behind him suddenly had a better impression of Xu Ning.
“No matter what, we have to thank you.”
Wei Xingfeng said, “Let’s invite Xu Ning to the parlor first. I will prepare a lunch banquet later to specially thank you.”
With that, Wei Xingfeng took the Wei family members and accompanied Xu Ning into the mansion.
