Chapter 597: I Should Give You a More Solemn Promise

Noble Consort Yi felt the heartache and tenderness in Yu Xian’s tone, which finally allowed her long-tense nerves to completely relax.

She stopped struggling and stopped concealing anything, leaning quietly in Yu Xian’s embrace, feeling the warmth and reassuring aura emanating from him.

“I feel like I should give you a more solemn promise…” Yu Xian suddenly said with a hint of a mischievous smile.

“What? Ah… Put me down, it’s not good if people see this!” Before Noble Consort Yi could finish asking, Yu Xian directly swept her up in his arms. Startled, she cried out and instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck.

Yu Xian was quite satisfied with Noble Consort Yi’s reaction. Holding her, he slowly walked toward the training room, full of interest.

“What are you afraid of? This is Dazhu Peak, my place. Who dares to say anything?” Yu Xian’s voice carried an undeniable dominance, yet it made Noble Consort Yi feel incredibly secure.

Noble Consort Yi buried her face in his chest, feeling his strong heartbeat. The corners of her mouth unconsciously curved upward slightly, and the sense of inferiority and unease caused by the past seemed to vanish at this moment.

“This is where you practice!” Noble Consort Yi naturally knew what was about to happen, but this wasn’t a bedchamber!

“Don’t you think this place is cleaner and more private? Here, it’s just the two of us, no one will come to disturb us.” Yu Xian looked down at the blushing Noble Consort Yi in his arms, his eyes full of burning affection. His steps did not pause at all; he walked straight toward the meditation cushion inside the training room.

“But…” Noble Consort Yi hadn’t expected Yu Xian to be so direct. She had no psychological preparation at all!

“No buts!” Yu Xian didn’t give Noble Consort Yi a chance to refuse.

“Yu…”

“Call me Husband!”

“Hus… Husband!”

“So obedient!”

“Mmm… No!”

…

Blazing sun and fiery clouds bring scorching heat, the north wind rushes in tides across heaven and earth.

【Ding, congratulations to the Host for successfully checking in Noble Consort Yi. Reward: one bottle of Ningjin Pill, Peiyuan Pill, and one hundred thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones. Items have been stored in the System Space and can be claimed by the Host at any time.】

What does this mean? Noble Consort Yi doesn’t yield new items? Isn’t this Yun Yun’s reward? Could it be because Noble Consort Yi isn’t from this world, so she only grants the baseline rewards?

However, checking in Noble Consort Yi yielded these items, which is considered exceeding the standard compared to the previous High Martial World.

Take it if it’s given, put it away, put it away.

After settling Noble Consort Yi, Yu Xian went to check on Yang Guo and the others.

Apart from those with families who had their own small courtyards, the rest lived together in a centralized area, though everyone had their own room. The group was not dissatisfied with this arrangement; instead, they were very grateful for it.

Seeing Yu Xian approach, everyone stopped Cultivating and came out in unison to greet him.

“Young Master, what Realm must we reach before we can descend the mountain to find the Immortal Master?” Xiao Feng asked Yu Xian.

They all knew about Zhang Sanfeng losing contact with Yu Xian, which was one of the reasons they were cultivating so diligently.

Although they always considered Zhang Sanfeng very powerful, this was no longer their original world. No one could predict what kind of existence they might encounter or what dangers they might face. Therefore, they had to improve their strength as quickly as possible to ensure greater safety on the journey to find Zhang Sanfeng in the future.

Yu Xian looked at the determination in everyone’s eyes and understood immediately.

“At least reach the Golden Core Stage, which is the Shangqing Realm. Only by reaching the Shangqing Realm can you barely cope with some external risks,” Yu Xian stated directly.

Xiao Feng and the others were currently only at the Yuqing Realm, still quite a distance from the Shangqing Realm.

However, since they were now at Dazhu Peak, possessing abundant Cultivation resources and an excellent Cultivation environment, reaching the Shangqing Realm was only a matter of time if they worked hard enough.

“Immortal Master Zhang has good fortune and will surely be safe. Moreover, I have already asked the Qingyun Sect Disciples to help search for him. Everyone need not be overly anxious for quick success. The Dao of Cultivation must be pursued step by step. I will provide you with the necessary Medicinal Pills and Cultivation Techniques; you only need to focus on enhancing your own cultivation,” Yu Xian said to the group in a steady tone.

He understood everyone’s feelings but also grasped the principle that haste makes waste.

“Master, rest assured, we will certainly Cultivate diligently and will absolutely not fail to meet Master’s expectations,” Yang Guo clenched his fist and said firmly.

“Yes, we understand. Only by being strong ourselves can we protect those we wish to protect, and only then will we be qualified to search for the Immortal Master,” Hua Manlou followed up.

Yu Xian nodded.

“Cultivation cannot be rushed. You are newcomers and may not be familiar with the Qingyun Sect’s Cultivation Techniques. If I am not here, you can ask the Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters of Dazhu Peak with any questions; they will all answer you.”

“Yes! Master (Young Master)!” Everyone bowed in unison.

They had all seen the original Dazhu Peak Disciples. Although there weren’t many of them, they were also at the Yuqing Realm, which itself had five levels. They themselves had just arrived and were basically barely at the second level of Qi Refining, but most of the original Dazhu Peak Disciples had already reached the fourth or fifth level. Therefore, regarding Cultivation questions, they could indeed ask them!

“You can also talk to the Senior Brothers to learn more about this world. The Qingyun Sect is, after all, the top Sect on this continent. It has numerous Disciples, and they possess knowledge far surpassing ordinary people regarding the continent’s geography, power distribution, and strange tales. Communicating more with them will allow you to become familiar with the rules of this world faster, avoiding danger due to ignorance during future expeditions. You can also explore which areas of the Sect are suitable for your current stage and which places are Forbidden Lands that must never be trodden upon. Furthermore, you can learn about the distribution of Cultivation resources in different regions—where certain Spiritual Plants or Ore are abundant, or where there are rumors of ancient ruins, and so on. This information is crucial for your future Cultivation path and expedition planning. Moreover, building good relationships with the Senior Brothers will make your life at Dazhu Peak more harmonious, allowing you to look out for each other when difficulties arise. After all, the camaraderie among fellow Sect members is often one of the most solid supports on the path of Cultivation,” Yu Xian explained carefully to the group.

“Yes!” The group responded in unison again.

“Master…” Little Fish seemed to sense something and looked at Yu Xian with some worry.

Why did he feel like Yu Xian was preparing to let them go?

Yu Xian met Little Fish’s gaze, paused, and then smiled, saying, “This world is vast. Beyond the Central Plains Continent, there are many other continents. In the future, you will have to rely on yourselves to gain experience and carve out a world of your own.

I cannot always shelter you under my wings; otherwise, you will never truly grow. Each of you has your own Dao to walk and your own Opportunity to seek.

Dazhu Peak is your starting point and your backing, but it is absolutely not your destination. Once your cultivation is sufficient, you must learn to face the storms independently, to see a broader world, and to experience those stories that belong only to you. This is not abandonment; it is letting you go so you can soar.”
