"i hope you can forgive me for taking you away from Wang clan, Li Jie" Sun Shin said
"you dont have to be Mr Sun Shin, even though, i have a few friends left in my clan, there will be no future for me there, i'm actually very grateful for your generosity, not only you will support me in my cultivation, you also gave me a roof above my head, I don't know how will i repay this favor, but i promise you, that i will do my best to repay the kindness you have given me" Li Jie replied while couping his hands while his head bowed.
"as, i told you before stop with the formalities, you're part of my family now, well i know you wanted to go to the heaven realm, what a hard dream to realized but not impossible, but seeing how determined you are, i guess you'll have a chance, and i also a have a good news for you, 3 years from now, earth realm cultivators well recruit new disciple's fir there sect ,so cultivate hard, i will assist you in all the ways i could.... i must go first, i have tons of things i have to do" Sun Shin said
"i will, Mr Sun Shin" Li Jie said still bowing.
Sun shin smiled and walked towards his office, where piles of paper works are waiting for him.
Li Jie was now free the shackles of the Wang clan, he can't believe that he could actually cultivate now in peace.
injoying his newly found freedom, he started to walking around the Yi clan, he found out the there are only few members of the Yi clan that actually live here, because most of the building are for marketing purposes, and the main Branch of Yi clan are located in Tak-wai empire which is thousand of kilometers away from here."
while aimlessly wondering around Xiu Lin found him,"Big Brother Li Jie! i heared from my father that you will move here, is that true?"
"yes" Li Jie nodded
"thats great!, sometimes i get a little lonely because I'm the only child here, and all my playmates are left in Tak wai empire ... since you'll be living here from now on, why not let me give you a tour"
"alright" Li Jie answered, to the always energetic Xiu Lin.
the two explored every place in Yi clan market , Li Jie tried to remember all the information that Xue Lin told to him, about the places and things, but he could only manage to remember some of it.
its already 4 pm after they finished Li Jie decided to go to his new home"aren't you a smart one Xiu Lin, thanks for the tour, I'll be sure to return the favor" Li jie said before walking to the small house with was assigned to him by Mr Sun Shin,
"no problem...but wait brother Li Jie my father told me to give you this" Xiu Lin pulled 7 pellets from her pockets "this are body refining pellets , it can greatly increase your cultivation speed, but you could only take 1 pellet per day" Xiu Lin warned
"yes, tell your father ,thanks for me"Li jie accepted the pill.
"Big brother Li Jie, can the favor, be like the fruits you gave me before?" Xiu Lin asked, she still can't get enough of those sweet treats.
"umm, sure"Li Jie answered

the house given to Li Jie is small , but it has a small kitchen, and a bathroom with tub in it. looking how compact the house is , he felt it was cozy enough for him.
taking the wooden pail from the kitchen, he decided to fill all of the water pots in the house. the well not too far from his house
on the way, few of the Yi Clan members greeted him warmly.and as polite guy, he greeted them back.
after filling all the pots with water, he decided to take a hot bath in the tub by boiling some of the water he just got from the well.
he never felt so peaceful, taking off the his hemp robe and the bandage in his left eye,he slowly layed his body full of bruises to the tub full of warm water.
"haaaaaa"Li jie closed his eyes. and let the his thoughts wander around.
after he finished bathing he remembered almost all of his spare old robes are left in the Wang clan,
but after looking the closet he found 3 pairs of white robe and pants made from Fabrics, he tried it on which fits his body perfectly, he never wore something smooth and not itchy before, there was also a small golden dragon embroidery in the left chest area which symbolizes Yi clan.
going back to the kitchen that has few stacks of preserved meat, vegetables and spices Li Jie whip a quick dish.before eating it and sitting to his bed to start his first cultivation session.
first page of Immortal Art of Cooking, the art of cutting, the art will enable you to
slice anything without wasting any flavor from something you will cook,
it was to dividing without reducing the flavor, but before that you must first know Qi, start by sensing it, by using breathing art, you must inhaling slowly before exhaling quickly. remember one must have a calm mind to do sense Qi.
Li Jie tried inhaling slowly while trying to sense the qi in the air, but after several attempts. he found out it was really hard to do so.
he suddenly thought of something, he untied his left eye, and look at the surrounding, he closed his rigth eyes,while letting is left eye see all the yellow particles that are slowly flowing in the air,
he inhaled slowly and saw that yellow particles in the air are rushing in his nose and after exhaling the partices also left.
he watched it for hours every time he inhale the particles goes in his body but after he exhales the particles leave.
then just like that a few hours later he finally able to sense the Qi in the air.
