As the Golden-Haired Behemoth retreated, the Demon Emperors looked at each other and immediately followed suit in retreat.

Long Fei was capable of overpowering the Golden-Haired Behemoth, and if he turned back to kill, they would stand no chance.

Once they left, the million-strong Demon Clan encircling the mountainside also withdrew completely.

Long Fei did not stop them, for indiscriminate killing would entangle him in karma, making it difficult when facing tribulations.

This was the reason why during the Divine Enthronement War, a group of immortals did not simply wipe out their mortal enemies with a slap.

The karma of these creatures was too great; even a Saint could not bear it.

This time, Long Fei seized an opportunity, refining the bloodlines of the Five Divine Beasts with the essence of millions of demonic beasts.

He truly should thank Mount Shu for bearing this karma for him.

The karma of Mount Shu and the Demon Clan seemed destined for endless conflict.

Together with Wang Xiaoya and Chu Feng, Long Fei retreated from Mount Shu.

After ensuring safety, the Mount Shu Sect completely deactivated the Yin-Yang Dust Grand Formation.

The vegetation on the mountain was utterly destroyed, blood stained the earth, and it appeared desolate.

Sect Leader Qi Shuming and the head Elders all sighed in relief, thinking they had temporarily avoided this demon calamity.

They were a bit bewildered, not understanding why Long Fei was on the mountain or why he helped Mount Shu.

It was only when Xu Xuan returned and recounted Long Fei’s actions in Shu State City that Qi Shuming was informed.

Qi Shuming and the Elders nodded with admiration upon hearing this, feeling a new level of respect for Long Fei.

This young man disregarded the rivalry between daoist orthodoxies to willingly assist Mount Shu, a kindness they would certainly remember.

Within and outside Shu State City, upon hearing of the Demon Clan’s defeat, people rushed out, cheering loudly.

The Demon Clan suffered a significant loss this time, losing more than ninety percent of their forces.

In the short term, they would find it difficult to stir up major trouble again.

This also gave time for the militia to develop, so that when the next demon calamity arrived, the militia could handle the situation themselves.

With the demon calamity in the Shu Region concluded, Long Fei prepared to set off for the Capital City.

He had already discovered that his ancestor was a member of the Dragon Martial Guard Grand General’s Mansion in the Capital City.

Betrayed by others, he had no choice but to venture into the stars, eventually finding refuge on Earth.

Long Fei was heading to the Capital City to restore his ancestor’s name and seek an opportunity for breakthrough.

Recently, elite members of daoist sects were gathering in the Capital City.

It’s said that there were rumors of an Immortal Path there, leading to an ancient secret of the immortal family.

This ancient secret might be related to the Ancient Heavenly Court.

Back then, the Human Emperor established a heavenly court in the Netherworld, a human heavenly court.

Although the heavenly court was later destroyed, various opportunities still remain within it.

If one could enter the heavenly court, great fortune would likely be found.

Long Fei instructed Chu Feng and the others to leave first through the teleportation channel, while he and Wang Xiaoya stayed to handle some issues with refugees.

The command of the militia was entrusted to Xue Renyi by Long Fei.

He advised Xue Renyi to focus on training the troops and not get involved in the power struggles of Shu State.

If there were problems, they could seek refuge in Jintang District.

For issues of funds and logistical support, Shu King would handle the operations.

Under the current circumstances, the Li Family would not be oppressed too severely, as Shu King still had some authority in this region.

In Jintang District, there exists a well-crafted Celestial Grand Formation of the Universe.

Long Fei entrusted this formation to Xue Renyi, noting that with its protection, even if the Shu State Army deployed all it had, it wouldn’t be able to harm the militia.

On Azure Dragon Lake, Long Fei and Wang Xiaoya arrived, calling into the water, "Qing’er, it’s time to go."

From Azure Dragon Lake, a whirlpool suddenly churned up. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

With a splash, water droplets scattered as a azure light leapt out joyfully to Long Fei and Wang Xiaoya’s side.

"Father, Mother!"

A small figure, dressed in azure, called out.

Having left as a short-haired boy, he now resembled a girl, with long hair tumbling over his shoulders, cheerfully calling to Long Fei and Wang Xiaoya.

Wang Xiaoya held him, alarmed, "Oh no, oh no, how did my Qing’er turn into a girl?"

She knew Qing’er had gained an opportunity here and tilted her head, suspecting it was some demon cult method requiring self-castration for power.

Long Fei, however, gently stroked Qing’er’s head, smiling softly, "So Qing’er is a girl after all, no wonder she always seemed so gentle."

Qing’er stuck out her tongue and giggled, "Dragons in their youth don’t know their gender; Qing’er has always been a girl."

Wang Xiaoya helped arrange her hair into a bun and fastened it with a golden hairpin.

Looking at Qing’er’s delicate face, she laughed happily, "At home, you have three brothers and a sister; being a girl suits you well."

Long Fei asked Qing’er, "Your mother and I are preparing for a long journey. Do you want to come with us?"

Qing’er hesitated, "Father, within Azure Dragon Lake lies an opportunity of my Azure Dragon family. I estimate I’ll need to seclude for five hundred years to fully absorb it."

"Five hundred years?"

Wang Xiaoya frowned, "That’s too long; can’t you take this opportunity with you?"

Qing’er shook her head.

Long Fei instructed, "For a cultivator, five hundred years is but a blink. You should cultivate well here, and your mother and I will return when we can to visit you."

Qing’er, somewhat reluctant, said, "But I’ll miss you both."

Long Fei patted her head with a smile, "We will have plenty of time together in the future, so this short while apart won’t matter. After we leave, I’ll ask Sister Suzhen to take care of you. If you need anything, just find her at Qingcheng Mountains."

"Got it!"

Qing’er nodded, holding onto Long Fei and Wang Xiaoya’s hands, refusing to let go.

Long Fei rummaged in his storage ring, pulling out an Apricot Yellow Flag taken from the Wei Family’s Three Heroes of Yuquan Mountain, handing it to Qing’er.

He advised Qing’er, "You’re still young and don’t know the ways of the world. I’m afraid of you causing trouble with other magical weapons, so I’m giving you this Apricot Yellow Flag, a True Immortal’s item. Use it for protection, and when we meet again, I’ll gift you more magical treasures."

"Don’t worry, Father, I won’t cause trouble."

Qing’er nodded obediently, joyfully taking the small flag from Long Fei.

Wang Xiaoya took out a small porcelain bottle for Qing’er, telling her, "Your mother isn’t as wealthy as your father, but this bottle contains a drop of divine liquid from the Peach Tree. Though just one drop, it has the power of resurrection. This is my gift to you for protection."

This drop of divine liquid was acquired by Long Fei and Wang Xiaoya in the Shenxu Holy Land.

Qing’er accepted it, knowing it was a rare treasure, and happily nuzzled against Wang Xiaoya, exclaiming, "Thank you, Mother."

Long Fei and Wang Xiaoya exchanged a glance, having said their farewells, ultimately departing from Qing’er.

With her gentle nature, Wang Xiaoya couldn’t help but frequently look back at Qing’er as they walked away, her heart full of reluctance.

She murmured about Bai Suzhen, Qing’er?

Suddenly she asked Long Fei in surprise, "Do you think our Qing’er could be that Qing’er?"

Long Fei shook his head, smiling faintly, "I don’t know; maybe it’s all just a coincidence!"

"That’s quite a coincidence!"

Wang Xiaoya frowned, feeling uneasy leaving Qing’er alone here.
