Chapter 1019: Chapter 1023 Leaving

“Thank you, Senior Qingjue.”

Xia Liu didn’t know Sage Qingjue’s intention, nor could he fathom it, but since he had given it to him, it must have a special purpose.

This scroll should be looked at once I return home.

“By the way, Senior, may I ask if you know the origin of my master?”

After storing the scroll in the storage ring, Xia Liu immediately asked.

“Venerable Yun Fan did not tell you?”

Sage Qingjue asked in return.

This…

How should Xia Liu answer, if he had been told, would he still ask?

Seeing Xia Liu’s troubled expression, Sage Qingjue nodded knowingly: “Since Venerable Yun Fan did not tell you, I have no way of knowing either.”

“Is it that I have to restore my cultivation for you to tell me the truth, Senior?”

“That’s not a condition at all, because I also don’t know the origins of Venerable Yun Fan…”

Sage Qingjue was bewildered, when did he ever say such things?

“Senior doesn’t know?”

“Of course not, Venerable Yun Fan is a figure I look up to, how could I possibly understand his background…”

“I understand.”

Xia Liu sighed helplessly.

Since even an exalted figure like Sage Qingjue doesn’t know the old man’s origins, finding his homeland is really difficult.

“Why do you want to know Venerable Yun Fan’s origins?”

Sage Qingjue thought perhaps it was because Venerable Yun Fan suddenly left or wandered the world, after thinking about it, he decided to let Xia Liu reveal the answer himself.

“I want to return his remains, so he can rest in peace in his homeland.”

“Hmm? Are you saying Venerable Yun Fan has met his end?”

Upon hearing this news, Sage Qingjue’s eyes widened instantaneously.

If not for suppressing his emotions, the Peak might tremble a little.

“Yes, the old man went to a small island in search of an antidote for me after sealing me, and by the time I found him, he was already without breath.”

Recalling this painful past, Xia Liu felt a wave of self-reproach.

If it weren’t for him, the old man wouldn’t have died.

Perhaps it was precisely because of him that year, his parents and grandfather also died on the same day.

“Oh, I see…”

Sage Qingjue suddenly relaxed, his mood became calm and detached.

“Condolences, death is irreversible, I’m not very knowledgeable about Venerable Yun Fan, I only know his origins were extraordinary, with profound cultivation.”

“Thank you, Sage Qingjue, for the information. Today might be the day I leave. Thank you, Shu Mountain, for your hospitality during this time.”

“No problem, you are a disciple of Venerable Yun Fan, at Shu Mountain you can come anytime you wish, if you need my help, send someone with a letter, I’ll arrive as soon as possible.”

Sage Qingjue said seriously.

“I will remember Senior’s kindness! In the future, once my cultivation improves, I will surely return to Shu Mountain to visit.”

Sage Qingjue nodded: “Alright, you should descend the mountain, after so many days, your wife must be worried about you.”

Before leaving, Xia Liu respectfully clasped his fists and then walked down the Ascending Heaven Stairway.

“Xia Liu, young friend, what you have seen may not be true, Venerable Yun Fan, with his supreme cultivation, couldn’t possibly die for no reason on a desolate island…”

Gazing at the rolling cloud waves like a torrent, Sage Qingjue kept sighing.

Shu Mountain Sect is still that mysterious supreme existence.

Behind the Outer Sect, the green pool, and the waterfall cascading straight down, a picturesque scene unfolds.

Xia Liu vividly remembers, half a month ago, he fought fiercely here with Liu Shui, receiving Sage Qingjue’s Subduing Demon Palm.

Half a month later, the beauty remained, but unfortunately.

The friendship between him and Li Jianguo and Song He might have reached its end.

Now Xia Liu’s divine sense can cover a one-kilometer radius.

He did not find any traces of Li Jianguo and Song He.

Instead, he saw Duan Yan.

He was training newly inducted disciples on a practice field.

Before reaching the practice field, Xia Liu used Divine Consciousness Sound Transmission.

Calling Duan Yan to the outskirts.

“Senior Xia!”

Upon seeing Xia Liu, Duan Yan immediately saluted respectfully.

“I remember your name is Duan Yan.”

Xia Liu stood with his hands behind his back, appearing like a grandmaster as he faced away from Duan Yan.

“Correct! I am Shu Mountain Outer Sect’s Chief Disciple, Duan Yan!”

Duan Yan didn’t expect Xia Liu would remember his name.

Nearly overjoyed.

After the battle at the back mountain, Xia Liu had nearly become the idol of all the Shu Mountain disciples.

Defeating Shu Mountain’s Liu Shui, receiving Sage Qingjue’s Subduing Demon Seal.

And finally, his words had incited the Sect Master to invite him to the Gathering Spirit Peak.

That is the sect’s supreme Forbidden Land.

Even Liu Shui is not qualified to go there.

Yet Xia Liu could ascend it.

This was enough to show, Xia Liu’s origins were extraordinary!

Xia Liu’s relationship with the Sect Master was extraordinary.

“What about Senior Li Jianguo from Lingfeng City?”

“Senior is referring to that Earth-Rank Peak Senior Li?”

Duan Yan asked in puzzlement.

“Yes, him.”

“He left ten days ago.”

Duan Yan was a bit confused.

In the Warrior Realm, generations are distinguished by cultivation, Xia Liu calling an Earth-Rank Martial Artist ‘Senior’ showed his extraordinary character.

“Hmm? What about the girl named Song He?”

“Miss Song has also left.”

“What? Wasn’t Song He up to Shu Mountain’s standard for disciple recruiting?”

Xia Liu couldn’t understand. He had entrusted Zhu Yi to specially take care of Song He considering his ability to ascend Gathering Spirit Peak.

Even if not qualified to join Shu Mountain, at least wait until he had descended the mountain.

“It’s a misunderstanding, Senior Xia, it was Miss Song who insisted on leaving.”

Duan Yan quickly explained.

He could hear the anger in Xia Liu’s words, should this big shot be enraged, Shu Mountain Sect might experience a tremor.

“She wanted to leave herself?”

“Yes, it’s said that Miss Song insisted on leaving Shu Mountain to join the Osmanthus Sect…”

Finishing his words, Duan Yan stole a glance at Xia Liu, wondering about his attitude, should it change by now, right?

“This girl…”

Hearing that Song He wanted to join the Osmanthus Sect, Xia Liu felt a wave of bitterness.

Forsaking the supreme Shu Mountain Sect to join Osmanthus Sect was indeed a sin.

“Thank you for your answer.”

“Helping Senior Xia is my honor.”

Duan Yan smiled brilliantly.

“Today, I too shall leave. If the opportunity arises, we’ll meet again.”

“Uh, uh, then I bid farewell to Senior Xia here!”

After clasping his fists in response, Xia Liu headed towards the waterfall in the back mountain.

When he arrived at the waterfall, suddenly, a black figure appeared on the flowing water.

“Daoist Fellow Xia, are you leaving?”

Zhu Yi asked with a curious head-on look.

“Yes, I’ve been out for quite a long while, I should go back home.”

“Oh, this is the aura of the eighth level of Qi Cultivation peak!”

“Daoist Fellow Xia, you’ve advanced?”

Zhu Yi trembled with surprise.

Half a month ago, he was only at the seventh level of Qi Cultivation peak, and now, he’s even surpassed him!

“Hehe, just luckily, luckily…”
