That night, Jiang Man was cleaning the stables.
"In the blink of an eye, it’s been three years. I’ve been cleaning this place and brushing these horses for three whole years."
"I’m leaving tomorrow, and I don’t think I’ll ever be back."
Luoyun City was not a bustling place compared to the Sect.
Besides, there was nothing here worth coming back for.
The road ahead was long.
His Talent destined him for an extraordinary life.
It also destined him for a great deal of trouble.
In the near future, he might not even have a chance to look back.
Let alone return.
"If you don’t reach Foundation Establishnt soon, you won’t be able to co back anyway," the Old Yellow Ox said from the side.
It was chewing on grass, showing no emotion.
It seed that its location made no difference to it.
"Also, you need to take ng Qiewei’s na with you. It can’t be too far from ," the Old Yellow Ox said.
Hearing this, Jiang Man was stunned. "Old Huang, are you telling to keep her writing so that if her real self shows up one day, she’ll think I treasure what she left behind and take a liking to ?"
The Old Yellow Ox stared at Jiang Man for a long ti before saying, "She left a technique within her na. If it gets too far away, I won’t be able to suppress it."
Jiang Man nodded, not at all embarrassed. "I see. In that case, I’ll take the na out and put it on you."
The Old Yellow Ox continued speaking as it chewed its grass. "If you still haven’t achieved Foundation Establishnt by the ti I see you again, you should probably start picking out a good burial spot for yourself."
Jiang Man nodded.
’We’ll et again soti after September, so that should be enough ti.’
However, to be on the safe side, he decided to first ask about the Foundation Establishnt Skill.
"It won’t do you any good to first learn the Promotion Skill of an Evil Demon’s unorthodox path," the Old Yellow Ox said calmly. "The one who brought you into the Sect is at Foundation Establishnt. You can ask her."
"What if she won’t answer ?" Jiang Man asked.
The Old Yellow Ox looked at Jiang Man in silence.
’Jiang Man understood. With enough Spiritual Source, he could get an answer to anything. If he couldn’t, it just ant he wasn’t offering enough.’
That night, besides occasionally engaging in his Cultivation, Jiang Man spent his ti chatting with the Old Yellow Ox.
Perhaps it was because this was the first ti he would be separated from the Old Yellow Ox for a while, but Jiang Man was especially talkative.
"Old Huang, I’m an Unparalleled Celestial Pride, you know. How far do you think I’ll go in the future?" Jiang Man asked.
"Your wife ran away," Old Huang said suddenly.
Jiang Man shook his head. "If she didn’t run, she’d be wanting to eat beef. Does Old Huang like to eat beef?"
The Old Yellow Ox lowered its head and ate its grass.
As the sun’s rays began to appear, Jiang Man grilled two flatbreads for himself and started packing his things.
While packing, he once again ca across the Wooden Sword.
Jiang Man stared at the Wooden Sword for a long ti, reminiscing about the past. Finally, he chuckled and said, "I didn’t think this was still around. Hey, Old Huang, you should take this with you. I like it, I’m just done playing with it."
Old Huang didn’t say anything.
Jiang Man continued packing. When there was nothing left to pack, he walked up to the Old Yellow Ox and said with a smile, "I’m heading out, Old Huang."
As he spoke, he glanced around at the courtyard and the stables beside it, thinking, ’Once I leave this ti, I won’t be coming back.’
"I’m off," Jiang Man said, waving goodbye to the Old Yellow Ox. "I’ll be waiting for you in the Sect. When you get there, I’ll show you how an Unparalleled Celestial Pride rises through the ranks."
The Old Yellow Ox watched Jiang Man leave without a word, chewing on weeds.
「At the guard post.」
The mont Jiang Man walked in, the two guards who were there shot to their feet with a SWISH.
"Young Master Jiang," the two said, bowing respectfully.
He was first place in the Yunqian Bureau; they wouldn’t dare offend him.
Especially since he was the first-ever top-ranked participant from the Six Pavilions.
His power far exceeded that of any previous first-place winner.
Jiang Man looked at them, smiled, and left a hundred Spiritual Source. "Thanks for the directions back then."
With that, Jiang Man turned and left.
The two guards watched his departing figure, recalling the words he had spoken when he first arrived.
"My family has run into so trouble, so money is a bit tight right now. But I ranked first in my courtyard, so I’m sure I’ll have more opportunities in the future. If you two seniors could offer so guidance today, I will certainly repay you generously in the future."
At that mont, the two of them were incredibly moved.
The older guard opened his mouth and said, "See? I told you. Soone like him was bound to succeed. You can’t get on his bad side."
"And he actually repaid us," the younger guard said, stunned. It was the first ti he had ever seen such a thing.
After leaving the guard post, Jiang Man went straight to the main gate of the Yunqian Bureau.
Mr. Zhao and Mr. Fu were already there, having waited for quite so ti.
Jiang Man was a bit surprised to see them, but he still bowed respectfully. "Mr. Zhao, Mr. Fu."
’Since they were willing to co, they must have been satisfied with the Xie Li I prepared for them. It makes sense. After all, it was a gift from a veteran Evil God; how could they not be satisfied? It’s great having an Evil God around, especially one who grew up with . We’ve always depended on each other to survive, though our current codependence is mainly because that Fairy is forcing us together.’
"Don’t worry about it. We just ca to see you off. Who knows when we’ll see each other again? You’re the best Student Cultivator I’ve ever had," Mr. Zhao said with a smile.
Mr. Fu also remarked with emotion, "This is for you. It’s so of my insights on the Celestial Heart Seal. I hope it will be of so help to you."
As he spoke, he handed over a book.
Jiang Man accepted it gratefully. "Thank you, Mr. Fu."
"Go on, they’re already waiting for you. And don’t worry about the Old Yellow Ox; I’ll make the proper arrangents for it," Mr. Zhao said with a wave of his hand.
Jiang Man expressed his thanks, then bid them farewell.
With Jiang Man’s arrival, everyone was present.
Then, Yu Wanyi led them away, riding her sword.
Mr. Zhao and Mr. Fu just stood there, watching them disappear into the distance.
"Mr. Zhao, do you have any idea who is backing him?" Mr. Fu asked curiously.
Mr. Zhao shook his head. "It doesn’t matter anymore. What matters is that we chose the right side this ti. I never imagined that my own courtyard would produce a first-place winner of the Yunqian Bureau."
Mr. Fu also sighed with emotion. "I’m afraid we’ll never have the chance to et another Student Cultivator like him again."
