The Evergreen planet,
Many buildings were already constructed around the tall tower. Also, batches of men were also sent afterward. Now there were about more than 4 thousand people staying in this place. This place looked like a small fortress. But they still remained divided into four groups. They were waiting for their leaders to arrive.
Inside the bamboo forest, Joey and his teacher were currently drinking tea. His master saw the longbow that Joey carried with him.
" Son, let me take a look at that bow." He demanded.
" Yes, master. Please have a look." Joey tried to give the bow to him.
" Boy, stop it. I don't like to be touched by other men." The longbow spoke.
" Senior Lan, you feel weak for some reason. I need my master to check on that." Joey said.
" Son, you must know that the bow is one of the things that I value most, like my life. So, I will respect her wishes. But I can check her body without touching." The man said. Then, he chanted a mantra and his eyes became bright and scanned the bow.
" Boy, she is fine. It is just that her soul is a bit exhausted. With time, she will return back to her prime or even more." The middle-aged man said.
Joey took out an arrow from inside his robe and said, " Master, this is my ' Naga Astra'."
" Good, you have a nice one. What do you plan to do now?" The man praised him.
" Master, it's been three years. Now, I would like to meet my mother and sister. Also little Xiuying, how is she?" He said and looked up at the sky.
" Boy, you are just 15 yrs old now. Don't try to act like an old man like myself. I also miss that little girl. Alright, we will go there tomorrow."
Suddenly the man stood up and said, " Son, we are leaving now." He held Joey's hand and they disappeared from the bamboo forest.

Phoenix city,
The two Yang brothers had been searching for the place that was described in that book for almost a year. They had secretly searched all throughout the city. But they found no clue as instructed by Prime Minister Li Lin. Now they even started scouting around the city.
" Big brother, let's check near that waterfall, " Yang Bojing suggested. The river that passed through the city came from this place.
" Alright."
Then they started searching around that place.
" I found something here." Captain Chao said. They found a large rock in a hidden corner. On that stone, many pictures of phoenixes were drawn on that stone.
" This is the first clue. Let's move this stone first." Captain Chao suggested.
Then they removed the stone. At that time, an array activated, producing bright light. Then the two brothers were teleported inside a forest. Inside that forest, there is a large Paulownia tree. They saw the giant tree first in their view.
" Big brother, we finally found it." Yang Bojing shouted with excitement.

Tang Palace, Canon city
It was a beautiful day inside the palace. The weather was comfortable with neither warm nor cool. The sky was blue and clear. Inside a big castle, a little girl was playing with a little white tiger the size of a cat. While three women were looking at her with a smile, sometimes they burst into laughter.
" The girl is always active and likes to run around with that little tiger. Mie lien, at her age, you are also always lively like her. You two are so similar. The only difference is that you like to cause troubles for your dad." Menglou said.
" Hahaha, they are really the aunt and niece after all. The little girl likes to follow her all the time. Now, that little girl starts to act just like her." Aunt Bai said too.
" Aunt Bai, stop making those jokes. She is just following me for other reasons. She always keeps nagging me to bring her along wherever I go. Also, she is a heavy eater unlike me. But she is so cute. " Mie lien retorted.
Then the two ladies burst into laughter again.
At that time, a spaceship appeared in the sky just above the palace. Twenty men came out and stood at the deck of the ship. They all looked down at the palace. They all wore a white-color-hooded long robe.
" Princess Bailong, please come out. The Qinglong family is here to escort you back home. Please, cooperate." A man spoke out loudly using his essence qi.
Tang Zimo came out, flew up in the sky, and said politely, " Sir, I am Tang Zimo, the emperor of this nation. What can I help you with? " He felt strong auras from those men.
" So, you are someone who can make decisions in this place. It will make things easier for us. Go bring Princess Bailong here." The man ordered him.
" Princess Bailong? Sir, there is no one in this place with that name. " Tang Zimo replied honestly.
Then the man made a picture of a lady in the air using his qi.
" That is my wife. What matters do you have with her?" Zimo became alert.
The man suddenly punched him from afar. The punch hit his left hand. His whole left hand exploded and sent him flying.
" Just an ant and dare to say that." The man snorted.
Zimo stood up slowly and tried to fight it all out with him.
That time an old man appeared beside him and poked multiple times at his wound, stopping the bleeding.
" Father," Zimo called out.
"Stand back. You are no match for him. " The old man told him and flew at the sky.
" I know you will come here one day. But no one can't take her today. She is my only daughter." The old man spoke and had a firm determination in his heart.
" Oh, finally someone with lvl 1 God realm. But still, you will die today if you still resist us. Even though this planet restricted our cultivation, we are all in lvl 10 Senior-God realm. Take this punch." He said and punched at him.
The old man waved his palm and completely neutralized the attack.
