"So that’s how it is..."
Qin Wanting’s eyes flashed with a hint of disappointment.
"You don’t need to feel disappointed. Although my current strength is not the strongest, I can assure you that once my strength improves and I become powerful, I will definitely help you find your parents. However, I need to know what the Sect they belong to is called first, so I can have someone investigate and get an idea of the situation,"
"I don’t know that. Only my grandfather does. I’ll take you to see him,"
Qin Wanting said, as Xiao Yifeng nodded his head in agreement.
"But I’m hungry now. Let me eat something before we go."
Xiao Yifeng ate hurriedly, then followed Qin Wanting out.
Soon, the two arrived at the Qin Family villa and went inside, where Qin Mo was sitting on the sofa, reading the newspaper.
"Wanting is back, and Little Feng, you’re here too. Please, have a seat!"
Qin Mo said to Xiao Yifeng, smiling.
"Elder Qin, Wanting has already told me about her parents’ situation. I want to know the name of their Sect,"
Xiao Yifeng said straight to Qin Mo.
"Their Sect is called Tian Sect, and it is said to be quite powerful,"
Qin Mo said, and then he went into a study, fetched a token with a ’heaven’ character on it, and handed it over.
"This was given to me when Wanting’s father sent her back,"
Qin Mo said, handing the token to Xiao Yifeng.
Xiao Yifeng glanced at the token and said, "Got it. Elder Qin, Wanting, don’t worry. I will have someone look into this Tian Sect. If your parents are still alive, I will definitely help rescue them and reunite your family."
"Little Feng, thank you!"
Qin Mo expressed his gratitude as he looked at Xiao Yifeng.
"You’re too kind, Elder Qin!"
Xiao Yifeng responded.
Outside the Qin Family villa, Qin Wanting gazed at Xiao Yifeng and said, "Regardless of whether I can be reunited with my parents, I want to thank you."
"Don’t worry; trust me, your family will be able to reunite,"
Xiao Yifeng said with a devilish smile, "But Wanting, you still need to practice your skills a bit more!"
Hearing Xiao Yifeng’s words, Qin Wanting’s cheeks flushed with a shy look, and she gave him a glance.
"Then I’ll practice with you another day!"
Qin Wanting said in a soft voice, then turned and ran back inside the villa.
"I could definitely get on board with that!"
Xiao Yifeng said approvingly, nodding his head.
In China, at a mysterious location within a luxurious palace, a middle-aged man wearing a purple robe with a face as fine as jade stood with his hands behind his back, exuding no aura but a subtle imperial majesty.
In front of this middle-aged man stood two elders.
"Clan Leader, we should take action immediately to bring back the master of the Evil Blade. Otherwise, once he fully unseals the Ninefold Seals of the Evil Blade, and the blade devours its master and takes control, there will be chaos, and we won’t be able to seal it again,"
One of the elders spoke with a grave expression.
"We do need to bring back the Evil Blade and its master. However, now that the compass is destroyed, locating the Evil Blade is not so simple,"
"Our Xuanyuan Clan should not expose itself too much at this time, to avoid complications. Let’s leave this matter to the major families; I believe they have the capability to handle this,"
The middle-aged man in the purple robe said calmly.
The two elders bowed and replied.
"Recently there have been disturbances in the Xukong Stars. It seems that the Chinese Martial Arts World is about to face a storm,"
The middle-aged man said with a profound look in his eyes.
"How is Wentian’s cultivation progressing lately?"
The man in the purple robe asked again.
"The Young Master is on the verge of Entering the Saint Realm peak and may break through any day now,"
"With the Young Master’s heaven-defying talent, he may well comprehend the ways of the Celestial Being and break into the Celestial Beings Realm before the age of twenty-five, becoming a genuine peerless genius,"
The other elder continued.
"Peerless genius? The world is vast; how can one speak of ’peerless’? Moreover, amongst the vast universe, we are but a part. Without venturing into the Ancient Realm, what does it mean to be peerless?"
The middle-aged man mused to himself.
Xiao Yifeng returned to the villa to find Ye Yaxin alone, wearing yoga clothes, practicing on a yoga mat.
Ye Yaxin also noticed Xiao Yifeng’s presence, stopping her yoga exercise.
Light flickered in Xiao Yifeng’s eyes as he looked at Ye Yaxin, walking over to her directly.
Ye Yaxin was taken aback by his look.
Xiao Yifeng embraced Ye Yaxin and kissed her without hesitation.
Ye Yaxin’s eyes widened in surprise as she struggled briefly before ceasing to resist.
Xiao Yifeng then carried Ye Yaxin into the bedroom.
Just as Xiao Yifeng was about to unbutton Ye Yaxin’s clothes, she suddenly grabbed his hand, her face flushed and panting, "Don’t, I... I’m not ready yet!"
"What? No need to get ready, we already know each other so well."
Xiao Yifeng said impatiently.
"I’m not ready, please don’t rush, I will give myself to you,"
Ye Yaxin said and then got up and ran out of the room.
Xiao Yifeng’s expression was one of wanting to cry but having no tears—so close to home, yet he had to abstain, which was sheer torture for him.
In the end, Xiao Yifeng had to take a cold shower to quell the surging blood within his body and then resumed his cultivation.
