At this moment, Duan Tianming and the others approached.
Li Yu looked at them calmly. He did not know what they were up to, but they did not seem to be here to cause trouble.
“Fellow Cultivator, nice to meet you. I’m Duan Tianming from the Clear Void Holy Land. Your strength is truly extraordinary!” Duan Tianming cupped his hands and said amiably.
Li Yu still had a calm expression, but he had no intention to speak with them.
Thus, he only smiled casually and cupped his hands in return.
Duan Tianming was not angry at Li Yu’s reaction. Instead, his worried heart finally relaxed.
He did not observe any hatred or hostility towards the Clear Void Holy Land in Li Yu’s eyes.
This was a sign that Li Qingyun hadn’t instilled hatred for the Clear Void Holy Land into Li Yu, and it meant that he might have already let go of the matters of the past.

‘As Duan Tianming thought about it, Li Qingyun was definitely not a narrow-minded person as the Divine Firmament’s Holy Son.
He could become the most dazzling prodigy back then, not just because of his monstrous talent and absurd strength.
He was also virtuous and heroic, earning him the admiration of everyone and becoming the respected Holy Son of the sect.
On the other hand, Li Qingyun was young and reckless back then, and he committed a grave mistake for a woman.
He must have said those harsh words when he lost control of his emotions. It could not be taken seriously.
Now everything had calmed down. Li Qingyun shouldn’t have to go to the point of fighting to the death with the Clear Void Holy Land and insisting on destroying it with his breadth of mind.
Therefore, when he saw Li Yu, Duan Tianming could roughly confirm that Li Qingyun might have already gotten over the matter.
This was beneficial for both sides.
It was better to squash enmity than keep it alive.
Furthermore, the righteous path was on the decline. And demons were rampant in the chaotic world.
The human orthodox sects should be more united than killing each other.
If the Qingyun Sect was not their enemy, he was willing to see Li Yu and this group of monstrous geniuses rise up, exterminate the demons and uphold the Dao to revitalize the human race.
Since Li Yu seemed unwilling to chat with them, Duan Tianming knew better and did not speak further.
He looked at Shan Ruoshui and felt some pity. He was not strong enough and could only give up the Unitary Heavy Water to someone else.
“Junior Brothers, since the Mystic Flood Dragon has been eliminated, we shall make our return!”
Duan Tianming then looked at Li Yu. “Fellow Cultivator, we’ll meet again in the future!”
“Take care!” Li Yu cupped his hands. He still had some reservations about people from the Clear Void Holy Land.
After all, he knew a little about his father and the Clear Void Holy Land.
Although he did not hate the Clear Void Holy Land, he was in no mood to welcome them with open arms.
“Let’s go!” Duan Tianming rode his flying sword and flew south. The others followed closely behind and soon disappeared into the horizon.
“alright, let’s go back too!” Li Yu patted Shan Ruoshui’s tiny head, who was still tossing the Sky Water Sword around.
The purple lightning flood dragon roared and immediately soared into the sky.
Along the way, Li Yu realized that his prestige mission had been completed.
Next, he would wait for the sect’s construction to be completed before officially establishing the Technique Pavilion, Divine Weapon Pavilion, Alchemy Pavilion, Refining Pavilion, Spirit Herb Garden, etc.
This way, he could officially complete the first phase of the mission.
As the prestige value mission was completed, the system issued more tasks.
For example, reaching 50 Nascent Soul or Transcendent disciples in the sect; ten disciples in the Soul Formation Stage or Soul Conduit realm; three disciples in the Profound Void Martial Stage or Rebirth Realm.
Collect natural oddities, spirit beasts, divine beasts, etc.
Li Yu put away the system mission interface and looked at his experience bar.
At this stage, he would obtain the experience points from killing Shakyamuni Zi Long, the three experts who pursued Gu Yuqi, and the Mystic Flood Dragon.
It had finally turned the data into a single digit.
He was still 9.96 away from becoming invincible
“Hmm, this number is a little too good!” Li Yu grumbled before putting away the system interface again.
Once the Alchemy Pavilion and Refining Pavilion are built, I can hand them over to Wu Chang. After all, he’s good at refining pills and artifacts. But who should I hand the Spirit Herb Garden to?
Li Yu pondered.
After all, planting spirit herbs required skill. Currently, there was no suitable candidate in the sect.
My dad might be a good choice, but the sect master can’t possibly watch over the herb garden every day, right?
Eh, aha! I’ll let Shan Ruoshui take care of the spirit plant garden!
Li Yu had an idea.
Water generates wood. Shan Ruoshui controls the power of the Unitary Heavy Water. Moreover, girls tend to be meticulous and patient. She should be the most suitable to manage it!
At the thought of this, Li Yu made up his mind.
On the way back to the sect, Li Yu introduced the Qingyun Sect and the spirit herb garden in detail to Shan Ruoshui.
At the same time, he taught Shan Ruoshui the Heavenly Dao reward for the Sky Water Sword, the Virtuous Water Art.
The next day, the information regarding the Black Flood Dragon War Halberd on the Divine Weapon Rankings changed.
The owner of the Black Flood Dragon War Halberd had become Li Yu.
This update made the news of Li Yu killing the Black Sea Mystic Flood Dragon public.
Once again, Li Yu’s name became the center of public opinion in the Great Xia Dynasty.
The death of the Mystic Flood Dragon also eliminated the last threat in the Great Xia Dynasty.
The Heavenly Fate Dynasty, the Clear Void Holy Land.
After Duan Tianming and the others returned, they reported everything they had seen and heard in detail to the Holy Lord, Perfected Taiqing.
After hearing Duan Tianming’s report, Perfected Taiging was shocked and had mixed feelings.
On the one hand, he was happy that the human orthodox sects had a monstrous genius like Li Yu.
In this era of turmoil, it was a blessing for humanity to have such a talent with limitless potential.
On the other hand, he had not really moved on from what had happened all those years ago. Or rather, he could never completely move on from it.
Otherwise, many things in that year would not have happened.
Everything that went down back then was not what many people see on the surface. Only he knew the real reason.
He had once blamed himself and regretted it for many years. Even though he had worked hard to put everything down and cultivate his character for a hundred years, he still held some grudges.
Especially when he heard that Li Qingyun’s son was so outstanding that even Gu Yugi had joined Li Qingyun’s sect, the jealousy inside him showed signs of resurfacing.
It was just like how he was jealous of Li Qingyun’s luck back then and how she chose him.
Perfected Taiging admitted that he could not disregard his selfishness and interests completely.
Not many people in the world could do that, not even immortals.
It was human nature. At the end of the day, one could not escape the seven emotions and six desires. One could not achieve zero desires.
If one really did not care about fame, status, success, or failure, not caring about grudges, then one could no longer be considered a human.
Furthermore, in his opinion, the path of cultivation was nothing more than a journey driven by desire.
He had also thought about why he cultivated and pondered about his own Dao.
Is it to pursue immortality? Pursue more power? Pursue the truth of the Great Dao?
Is it to ascend to the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm? For the rise of the Holy Land? For the sake of the world? To uphold justice?
Those seemed to stand as his reasons, but they were not!
Perhaps it was in the past, but not now!
Ever since she appeared, many things had changed, including himself and his heart.
He once believed that he had already recognized himself and grasped his conscience.
That was not the case. The complexity of human nature might be the Dao that he could never comprehend in his life!
“You may leave,” said Perfected Taiqing.
Duan Tianming and the others cupped their hands and left. As for Perfected Taiqing, he turned around. He looked at the stone tablet behind him, falling into deep thought.
It was all my fault all those years ago!
