Chapter 232 - Farewell, Wansheng

Chapter 232 Farewell, Wansheng

“Thank you very much.”

As his understanding of Xu Ning continued to deepen, Wan Ye’s approval of Xu Ning spread from his talent to his behavior.

In Wan Ye’s opinion, with Xu Ning’s character, it was not a problem to place the future of the Swallow Heron Sect in his hands. “When are you leaving for State Wansheng?”

Wan Ye put away the pills given by Xu Ning and asked.

He asked this not to secretly urge Xu Ning to leave, but Wan Ye had already noticed Xu Ning’s desire to leave for State Wansheng.

“I’m going back to State Feiyun to take a look.”

Xu Ning responded, “After a few days, I will go to State Wansheng. I have discussed this with Teng Yunkong and Gu Man from the Source Sect. We will leave together then.”

“Mmm…”

Wan Ye nodded.

“Senior Wan Ye, do you have anything else to instruct?”

Xu Ning asked.

“There are indeed some instructions…”

Wan Ye said, “After you go to State Wansheng, don’t be in a hurry to plan the rebuilding of the sect, you have to find someone named Leng Ran first.”

“Leng Ran?”

Xu Ning remembered this name. “That’s right.” Wan Ye nodded. “The Swallow Heron Sect was forced to disband, and the previous sect master handed all the treasures of the sect to Leng Ran. But Leng Ran is not a member of the Swallow Heron Sect, she is an old friend of the previous sect master.”

“Where is Leng Ran located at?”

Xu Ning asked for more details.

“She is living in seclusion in Fenghe Canton, State Guqing. She is an extremely high-level dao realm alchemist.”

Wan Ye replied, “You should easily know where she lives by asking around.”

“After seeing her, just state your identity and explain your intentions. She will tell you what to do next.”

“Fenghe Canton, State Guqing…”

Xu Ning bore this place in mind.

Xu Ning now knew that in State Wansheng, under the rule of the Imperial Court, there were states, cantons, and counties.

State Guqing was an administrative region of the State Wansheng Dynasty.

“Remember, after you go to State Wansheng, don’t get into conflict with the Imperial Court.”

Wan Ye reminded, “State Wansheng is different from the seventeen states of the Abyss North. The power of the Imperial Court is beyond your imagination. It can even be said that the Imperial Court is the strongest sect in State Wansheng.”

“Understood.”

Xu Ning remembered this. “By the way, Senior Wan Ye.”

Xu Ning asked, “How are they going to deal with the disciples of the Jade Night Sect?”

“The disciples of the Jade Night Sect scattered in the Abyss North were all captured.” Wan Ye said, “The reason why it is so efficient is because the two dao realm masters of the Source Sect, Teng Yunkong and Gu Man, sacrificed their recovery time and took the initiative to do this.”

“Many people in the top sects in the Abyss North want to get rid of these Jade Night Sect disciples. After all, the motives of these disciples were indeed unfriendly. Moreover, there are so many high level void realm martial artists. If they are not dealt with, there will definitely be chaos in the future.”

“However, Teng Yunkong and Gu Man suggested taking them all to State Wansheng and recruiting them as outer disciples to expand the Source Sect.”

After Xu Ning heard this, he couldn’t help but be surprised. “Turn them into Source Sect disciples? They can acknowledge a new identity like that?”

Xu Ning felt a little strange.

To a certain extent, they were enemies. Wan Ye smiled when he heard this and explained, “State Wansheng is different from the Abyss North. Disciples of unofficial sects in State Wansheng, especially small sects like the Jade Night Sect, have low loyalty towards their sect. They can only obtain the resources of the sect by continuously completing sect missions, so the relationship between the two are mutual.”

Xu Ning understood that this seemed like a relationship between a boss and a waiter.

In any case, since the potential risks left behind by the Jade Night Sect had been resolved, it was a good thing

Afterwards, the two talked again, and Xu Ning bid farewell to Wan Ye. This would not be the last time the two met before Xu Ning left the Abyss North

When he returned from the Tao Village, he would come back again.

Time flew by.

Four months later.

On the Endless Sea, a dao weapon ship was sailing quickly between the waves.

Xu Ning stood at the bow of the ship and saw the outline of land in the distance.

“State Wansheng, we’re almost there.”

For a moment, Xu Ning felt rather emotional.

After Xu Ning returned to the Tao Village in State Feiyun, he spent a month with his family.

During this period, Feng Xiu from the Source Sect came to visit, saying that he wanted to introduce Tao Tao into the Source Sect and have her become his personal disciple. Xu Ning agreed after some consideration.

In Xu Ning’s opinion, the Source Sect had a strong foundation.

Because Tao Tao was still young, Tao Yunchuan and Xu Lian went to Yunying City together.

They lived with the Wei family and took care of Tao Tao.

At the same time, Xu Ning also gave the pills he had prepared for Tao Tao to Feng Xiu, trusting him to allow Tao Tao to take the pills according to her situation. As for Chu Yeyang, who was sent to Tao Tao’s side, Xu Ning sent him to Wan Ye to be his servant. As for Guo Ye, with Xu Ning’s deliberate help, Guo Ye established his own trading company in Yunying City which was supported by the Wei family. Because of his status as Xu Ning’s brother, Guo Ye had many void realm martial artists under him despite being just a mortal realm warrior.

When he was bidding farewell with his family and friends, everyone was reluctant to part.

But Xu Ning’s relatives and friends all knew that it was inevitable for him to leave the Abyss North and step onto a broader stage.

After bidding farewell to his family, Xu Ning left State Feiyun.

Xu Ning bid farewell to Mi Xingye, He Mingye, Si Ying, Xie Wenyue, and the others.

Before he left, Xu Ning left the pills he refined for Little Gray.

Little Gray knew that Xu Ning was not bringing it along for its own good, but it was still depressing Xu Ning told Little Gray to go to Yunying City and accompany Tao Tao as her mount. Little Gray agreed. In the end, Wan Ye personally sent Xu Ning and the others to the coastline of the Abyss North and to their ship.

If it weren’t for the pills refined by Xu Ning that relieved Wan Ye’s old injuries, he might not have lasted this long.

But even if his injuries were relieved, he could not help much even if he returned to State Wansheng to rebuild the Swallow Heron Sect, so he could only place all his hopes on Xu Ning.

Afterwards, Xu Ning, Gu Man, and Teng Yunkong went to State Wansheng with dozens of Jade Night Sect disciples.

After sailing on the dangerous Endless Sea for nearly three months, they were finally reaching State Wansheng. “We are less than half a day away from State Wansheng.” Teng Yunkong walked on the deck and came to Xu Ning’s side. “Look at those dao weapon fishing boats.”

Teng Yunkong pointed at the shadow of boats in the distance.

“Dao weapon fishing boats?”

Xu Ning followed Teng Yunkong’s gaze. On some ships, dao realm masters and even void realm martial artists used special artifacts and even dao weapons to capture some fierce demon beasts under the Endless Sea.

“Although the Endless Sea is dangerous, there are plenty of resources below.”

Teng Yunkong said, “It is said that under the Endless Sea, there are many mystic realms left behind by top powerhouses. I don’t know if it is true.”

“As expected of State Wansheng, the Endless Sea, which seems to be full of danger elsewhere, is actually the fishery of the martial artists of State Wansheng.’ Xu Ning was a little speechless.

The closer he was to the coast of State Wansheng, the more dao weapon ships Xu Ning could see.

“Not really…”

Teng Yunkong explained, “Those searching for resources at the Endless Sea are basically members sent by unofficial sects, or some lone masters. Their strength is considered strong in State Wansheng, but the resources here are richer and easier to obtain, which is why they became ‘fishing’ masters.”

“In State Wansheng, most people are just ordinary people who have not practiced martial arts. They are the foundation of State Wansheng.”

Teng Yunkong said, “It’s just that it is easier for ordinary people to come into contact with martial arts here. And once they step into the path of martial arts, the upper limit of their advancement in the future will be higher as well.”

“Is that so…”

Xu Ning had a better understanding of State Wansheng.

Xu Ning had always thought that State Wansheng was full of martial artists.

It seemed that as a dao realm master, he was still considered an elite martial artist in State Wansheng

The ship was getting closer and closer to the shore.

Bang!

Finally, after six hours, the dao weapon ship hit the rocks on the shore.

“We’re here!”

Teng Yunkong and Gu Man were both a little excited.

Although there were three dao realm masters on the ship, sailing in the Endless Sea was still risky.

It was rare for them to return safely without experiencing any major risks at sea. “Is this State Wansheng…”

Xu Ning felt the dense spiritual energy around him and felt refreshed.

When he was near State Wansheng, Xu Ning had already felt the change in the concentration of spiritual energy at sea.

Now that he was close to land, this feeling became more vivid and intense. ‘If I were in this kind of environment, I would only need four hours to completely recover from a single battle.’

Xu Ning felt like a fish in a stream returning to the sea. “Senior Teng, Senior Gu, let’s part ways here!” Xu Ning didn’t forget what he should do when he stepped on the land of State Wansheng.

According to Wan Ye’s instructions, he should first go to Fenghe Canton in State Guqing to find a dao realm alchemist named Leng Ran.

“Farewell!”

Teng Yunkong and Gu Juan also cupped their fists and said to Xu Ning.

They had previously invited Xu Ning to visit the Source Sect in State Wansheng, but Xu Ning refused.

“When you have the opportunity in the future, come visit our sect!”

Teng Yunkong said.

“Okay.”

Xu Ning nodded.

Afterwards, the two sides parted ways.

Teng Yunkong and Gu Man rushed back to the Source Sect with the newly recruited high level void realm disciples.

These dozens of high level void realm disciples could greatly expand the strength of the sect.

This trip to State Wansheng had been quite a harvest for Teng Yunkong and Gu Man. As for Xu Ning, he took Gray, as well as Cyan and Xu Hujun who were hidden in the Demon Beast Scroll, and went to Fenghe Canton according to the map of State Wansheng that Wan Ye had given him.
