Chapter 102: Chapter 102: Farewell (Fixed 100 additional updates! Please subscribe!)
Title: Pastor
Qin, Chess, Calligraphy, and Painting: Third Level
Dragon Tiger Magic Power: Beginner
Profound Yin Soul Fragment: Third Level (Unupgradeable)
Heavenly Show Points: 69 (33%)
Gate of Ten Thousand Ways: Opening (3%)
...
After his breakthrough to the Gang Sha Realm, Zhong Shenxiu pulled up the Heavenly Show System and glanced at the attribute page.
"The advancement of my innate Daoist skill, due to the lack of Evil Qi, requires dozens of points to rise above the sixth level and condense talisman seeds. These Heavenly Show points are far from enough... The best use of Heavenly Show points is still to make breakthroughs," he mused.
"The second world has opened 3%? That’s somewhat encouraging."
"The next step in my cultivation plan is to practice the Ten Thousand Beasts True Body Technique and plan a trip to Central Earth to join the Supreme Dragon and Tiger Sect. That makes me a bit uneasy, like I’m delivering myself to their doorstep... However, travelling to find the right Gang Sha Qi is what every cultivator does after a breakthrough."
Although the Fufeng Protectorate gave him the initial guidance in Daoist skills, his subsequent treatment showed their true attitude.
As a penal servant, he had reached his limit here and could hardly advance further.
Leveraging the war for an exceptional promotion, Zhong Shenxiu felt an even greater pressure.
If it were an ordinary person, they would be treading on thin ice, terrified of making a single misstep that could spell their doom.
Yet, he swiftly modified his plan, ready to simply walk away, done playing their games.
"However, breaking ties this way isn’t an option; I still have the Su Family to protect... Therefore, I can only request a long leave. Being a Daoist Official does have its relaxation regarding cultivation, or perhaps, I could also take several long-term missions that require travel and solve everything at once," he decided.
With this thought, Zhong Shenxiu decided to ask for the leave the next day.
Also, he would forsake the Protector Mansion’s spells, saying he was off to seek his own spell heritage.
Those who disapproved of him would surely mock him behind his back for being shortsighted and severing his own roots.
Exactly what he needed.
Keeping a low profile, he would gradually accumulate power and inevitably, one day, shock the entire Protector Mansion.
...
That night.
Zhong Shenxiu had Huang Xie call for a feast delivered from a restaurant; five of them sat down to eat together.
This surprised both Huang Xie and Er Ha.
Su Wei was smiling cheekily, stubbornly gnawing on a crystal pork knuckle, refusing to let go.
Su Tang toasted Zhong Shenxiu, noticing his cousin seemed in a good mood; his eyes lit up, "Daoshi, have you made progress in your cultivation? The initial breakthrough is no ordinary heavenly gate; haste won’t help..."
He knew the challenge of beginning the Daoist path through family teachings.
Breaking through to the Gang Sha Realm!
Back then, even the principal heirs of the Su family would only dare dream of such an accomplishment.
"I have cultivated the Dao and refined mana," Zhong Shenxiu stated, pouring himself another drink and looking around casually.
"Ah!"
Su Tang’s eyes widened, aware that this cousin had the method of Dao initiation, but a half-month to initiation?
This was truly the level of talents seen in county governments!
Both Huang Xie and Er Ha quickly stood up, "Congratulations, my lord."
Their voices filled with envy.
Being innate was only top among the secular Jianghu, but reaching Gang Sha meant truly stepping onto the Daoist path, promising a vastly extensive future.
"I achieved Gang Sha, only then did I realize, the path of cultivation is like walking on thin ice."
Zhong Shenxiu sighed and saw confusion on everyone’s faces, then laughed, "Let’s not talk about these today, we should drink merrily, for I will soon set off for Central Earth to travel, expand my knowledge, and collect Gang Sha Qi and Daoist Skills..."
"Ah!"
Su Wei screamed, her elbow dropping onto the table.
Su Tang, however, was not startled and bitterly smiled, "That’s natural, please rest assured, we’ll take care of this home for you."
"Ah, after I leave, I entrust the matters of this house to you, as for Huang Xie and Er Ha, you have been with me since minor times, how could I bear to delay you? Fortunately, Er Ha has already broken through to Innate and can return to his clan. Huang Xie, you should accompany him."
Zhong Shenxiu laughed again.
Huang Xie was startled. In reality, he was sold into servitude for advanced martial arts and had prepared himself to endure many years of hardship. He did not expect Su Daoshi, remembering their old friendship, to directly transmit the Innate Cultivation Technique to him, what a huge favor!
After Er Ha’s breakthrough to Innate, Huang Xie did want his nephew to return, but how could he bring himself to ask for it? Wouldn’t that be ungrateful?
Unexpectedly, Zhong Shenxiu was the first to mention it.
"How can this be? Er Ha should stay and serve you, I may be old, but I can still serve your family..."
Huang Xie hurriedly said.
Just hoping that after a few years, they would let Er Ha go was a great gain.
"We are not master and servant, but friends, why such fuss?"
Zhong Shenxiu laughed heartily, "Huang Xie, you are not old, when you return, you can marry a few fine dogs. I still have a gift for you, do not say more, my mind is made up."
Speaking of which, as a transmigrator, he had no real attachment to the Su Family.
Instead, after spending some time mixed up with Huang Xie and Er Ha, his friendship with them was even deeper than with the Su Family, and Zhong Shenxiu had no intention of keeping them as servants forever.
He took a conch shell from his pocket, "Inside this is a spell called ’Soul Dispersion’, quite powerful. Keep it as a trump card."
Originally, this object was related to the Yellow Sand Saint, and Zhong Shenxiu had some concerns before, fearing it could lead to further complications.
Later, at the Protector Mansion, upon seeing the register of Daoist Skills and realizing Soul Dispersion was not exclusive to one faction but was widely disseminated, he stopped worrying.
Even, after going through the great battle at Poison Dragon Cave, he faintly knew that the real Hao Yunzi was skilled in various divine techniques that attacked the Divine Soul.
Maybe Soul Dispersion had potential to become a divine technique in the future, it will depend on whether Er Ha, this dog, has the chance.
"This... Thank you, sir."
Huang Xie’s eyes instantly reddened.
"Just call me Mr. Su."
Zhong Shenxiu laughed heartily.
...
The next day.
Zhong Shenxiu, along with Su Tang and Su Wei, stood at the door bidding farewell to the two dogs.
Su Wei, holding Er Ha’s dog head, had tears in her eyes and was reluctant to let go.
Though Er Ha usually caused a lot of trouble, he had a certain charm, and Su Wei, despite her apparent disdain, was particularly fond of this dog. Saying goodbye was very difficult.
"Remember to write to me."
"Don’t worry, our clan now has messengers." Er Ha assured, "Now that I am Innate, once I return, I will definitely be respected, maybe even marry a few fine dogs..."
"Cough cough..." Zhong Shenxiu coughed, "In front of children, don’t talk about this. The Quanrong Clan’s lineage is very decent, if you have a chance, you must seize it."
The struggle for survival in different races was often more open than in Yan Han, and their lineage was straightforward and without hidden pitfalls, very friendly indeed.
"Big... Mr. Su, we’re leaving, take care."
Huang Xie bowed and was about to lead Er Ha away.
At that moment, Er Ha, like a dog off its leash, sprinted into the distance.
Huang Xie glanced and immediately burst into frustrated cursing, "Stupid dog... you’re running the wrong way!"
