Part 1
There would inevitably be a day when young eagle had to spread their wings and fly towards their own world, distancing themselves from their parents. From then on, the lone eagle would take to the sky and travel far away.
There would also be a day when men reaches adulthood. Everyone had their own different paths. For their dream, for their future, they would pave their own path. A day would come when they had to leave their family and friends.
Twenty three to twenty four years were the golden age for pract.i.tioners. To hone their skills, they would travel to foreign land without looking back. Doing so would make themselves stronger, both physically and mentally.
"Maybe… I will stay in the Shang Dynasty for a very long time. Three years ago, during the Celestial City's warbeast tournament, the third princess had graced us with her presence. I was already acquainted with her at that time, but I didn't know she is a princess. When I arrived at Yindu this time, she invited me to stay for a few months." The beautiful Yan Qingcheng said with slight sentiment, "I wonder if we’ll have a chance to meet up again in the future."

That's right, it was hard to promise anything, because the immortal's mainland was really too vast. Who could be sure that no accident would occur during their journey?
"My first destination is definitely the Shang Empire." Lazio wanted to learn how to recite poet and travel all over the world. Then he continued, "The Shang Dynasty is one of the five major states, it has occupied at least sixteen percent of the entire territory. I think I will be staying at the Shang Empire for a really long time."
"So are we." Aqua, Frosty, and Tenvis nodded at the same time.
"I will travel to various regions of Shang Dynasty." Dugu Jianmo announced. Then he looked at Xiao Chen and said, "Xiao s.h.i.+shui, you ought to leave soon. There's a 'strong tiger' in Yindu. If you are too late, you might run into trouble."
"I already know that. When I just entered the Lunar Pavilion, I've already heard people talking about it." Xiao Chen downed one cup by himself, and said, "So what if he is a strong tiger. If he dares to find me, I intend to take his head with me."
Hearing these, the expressions of everyone in the private room changed.
Dugu Jianmo looked at him and didn't say anything.
The blue-haired pretty boy Lazio said with a grave expression, "I heard that person might have entered the realm of demiG.o.d already. Even if you have powerful divine abilities, there differences in level are still too much. I fear that it will be extremely difficult to take him down."
Windfeathers nodded and said, "It is better to withdraw temporarily. The people from Tiger clan is very venomous. Xiao Chen should have learned his lesson from three years ago."
Hearing the name, Yan Qingcheng felt somewhat unnatural as she recalled certain events of the past.
"It won't hurt. With me and Dugu Jianmo combined, it should be enough I suppose."
"The two of you combined?" Everyone at the scene was very surprised. Even Dugu Jianmo himself was shocked. He never expected Xiao Chen would say something like this.
"What, all of these started because of you, how can you pull out at times like this?" Xiao Chen looked at Dugu Jianmo with a smile.
"Very well, I will not leave Yindu for at least one month." Dugu Jianmo didn't hesitate and made such a promise.
Windfeathers and the others asked, "Is there anything we can do to help?"
Xiao Chen shook his head, and said, "The two of us should be enough."
Part 2"We are not in a rush anyway. We won't be leaving that soon. Getting rid of a demiG.o.d before departure could be considered a beautiful tale." Lazio added.
Xiao Chen continued, "You guys belong to a faction, unlike me and Dugu Jianmo, who are all alone. If this matter become known, it will stick to you for a lifetime."
"Hehe, no matter. Let's talk about this again when the time comes."
Because of this matter, the sad atmosphere of parting had momentarily been dispelled.
There was no such thing as a never-ending banquet in this world. In the end, everyone became a little drunk. Even beauties like Yan Qingcheng and Frosty had a flush on their lily-white faces.
The time for parting had arrived. Only that, they were stunned the moment they pushed the door open. The stairs leading downstairs had been filled to the brim. Bosch, Chen Hanggin, Yin Feng, and many others had been waiting for a long time.
Xiao Chen even noticed Chulain at the back of the crowd. It was the very same Chulain who possessed the outstanding Destiny Twin divine ability. And beside him was a handsome youth with indistinguishable power.
"Brother Xiao, wait a minute. Let us have a little chat." Bosch walked over.
"Brother Dugu, our meeting must be the work of fate. Please, come over here." Chen Hanggin stepped forward.
"Miss Qingcheng and Lady Frosty are as beautiful as the fairies. Please, have a sit here." Yin Feng also called out intimately.
A group of people encircled them. Their aim was clearly to retain Xiao Chen's group.
"He-he-he…" Chulain laughed and walked forward with Yanzalp. Other than the few from supreme clans, the others involuntarily get out of the way. Yindu's Heroic Four had shaken the imperial capital, who was not afraid of them?
"No discord, no concord. How about coming to my mansion for a while?" Chulain was calm and easygoing. He didn't bear the shame of a loser.
"Okay, but not today." Xiao Chen tactfully refused.
Yanzalp looked at Xiao Chen, then he looked at Dugu Jianmo. His eyes emitted a sharp glint, but he only nodded without saying anything in the end. On the contrary, he seemed more interested in Yan Qingcheng and Frosty. He actually ordered someone to go and prepare gifts for them.
"Brother Xiao…"
Just at this time, one guy pushed through the crowds, and he even crossed over Chulain and Yanzalp.
"It's you." Xiao Chen shot a cold glare at him. He recognized this person. He was Yutong, the bodyguard of the third princess. That night, he led a group of people to block his path in the sky. At that time, he was very arrogant and despotic.
"Brother Xiao, please forgive me." Yutong bowed awkwardly and said, "Brother Xiao, I beg your forgiveness. Please let bygones be bygones. Today, I am here on behalf of the third princess to send an invitation Brother Xiao and Brother Dugu."
Dugu Jianmo was very silent. From start until now, he didn't say a single word.
Xiao Chen shook his head and said, "We still have matters to attend to, maybe next time."
Hearing these, the bodyguard panicked and almost knelt down on impulse, "Brother Xiao, it is my fault. I was too rude three days ago. I will apologize to you here and now. Please, you have got to help me. Otherwise the third princess will kill me. She only wanted to invite you all to a simple gathering. There are no ulterior motives."
Part 3Seeing that Xiao Chen remain unmoved. Yutong lowered his voice and whispered, "The third princess had already made the 'strong tiger' to back out. I know Brother Xiao can handle the situation by yourself, but this is after all, the kind regards of the princess, so please…"
This news was very unexpected to Xiao Chen. He nodded in the end and said, "Alright."
"Brother Dugu…" Following that, Yutong walked in front of Dugu Jianmo and whispered something.
"Hmph, I don't need any sword manual!" Dugu Jianmo snorted.
"Rather than a sword manual, it is a…" Yutong hurriedly tried to explain.

"Fine, I'll go." Out of everyone's expectation, Dugu Jianmo actually agreed to go with a nod.
It was obvious that Yutong had made preparations beforehand. Next, he also made Lazio, Windfeathers, and the others agreed to go with him.
The rich kids of Yindu were all dumbstruck, this… third princess really knows how to play her hands, she actually caught all of them in one go and invited them to her residence.
In fact, everyone only had eyes for Xiao Chen and Dugu Jianmo. As for Windfeathers and the others, they were only for the purpose of putting the two at ease. Of course, it was a different story for Yan Qingcheng and Frosty due to their good looks.
Even if it was just a vacation home, it was very impressive. How could the residence of the third princess not be so?
Walking on the path laid out by cobblestones, they pa.s.sed through the garden, crossed over a stone bridge, and arrived at a lotus pond. Following the winding path on the surface of the pond, they arrived at a pavilion.
There, they found a girl in white dress sitting in front of the musical stage. Although she her face was covered by a veil, it was easy to guess how beautiful she was with that delicate body of hers, as well as that pair of clear eyes. Moreover, her beauty might possibly be at divine level.
Xiao Chen and Dugu Jianmo didn't have the intention to show any courtesy, the third princess also didn't mind. She smiled and invited them to sit down. She even intimately invited Yan Qingcheng to sit beside her.
"I had wanted to recruit all of you as my servants, but I've changed my mind. Everyone here is an elite, how would you all willingly agree to serve other people. I, Yinying, only wish to make friends with all of you."
"The princess is too courteous. To be able to make friends with the princess is our honor." The blue-haired pretty boy Lazio smiled. His handsome face was filled with a calm expression. He came from a major clan in the Southern Wasteland, he was most familiar with this kind of strategy to get closer by pus.h.i.+ng the others away.
"Hehe, Lord Lazio is really extraordinarily handsome. If you were to visit the major clans in Yindu, I'm afraid that the standard for choosing a spouse among the ladies will increase by several levels." The third princess smiled lightly and said, "I have news that Lord Lazio might be particularly interested in. The fairy Lan Nuo had once showed up in my Shang Dynasty. I have already invited the person in the know. If Lord Lazio wanted to know more, please go and ask him in detail."
"Many thanks!" Lazio expressed his heartfelt grat.i.tude and left with the guidance of a maid. Even Xiao Chen was surprised by this news. If not for hiding his ident.i.ty, he would have follow after them to inquire.
"Windfeathers, you are an outstanding person among mankind. Although you have suffered crus.h.i.+ng defeats in Yindu, I want you to believe me that the men in my Yindu do not have evil intention. They are only a little rough with their ways. I beg you to forgive them. I know you have outstanding talent. Only a few can reach your level, and you even train in the Demon Beast Art. That is a secret art that once lord over the whole world. The only reason you lost is because you don't have a powerful beast soul. If you have the help of a quality beast soul, I fear that only a few among the youths can match up to you. I have a rare beast soul sealed in my mansion house, don't refuse, you can go and have a look first. Who knows, you might be able to reap some benefits."
Windfeathers saluted and left.
Xiao Chen couldn't help but let out a sigh. This third princess really knows how to play her hands.
