Prepared for Bai Qhan's response after receiving information of his presence from core disciple Yunjie, Elder Xunqja said, "we can tell you who ruined your life."
Sensing a death threatening danger from Bai Qhan, Shung Yun felt dozens of strings around his body.
"I might die if it becomes tangible," he thought as he suppressed his excitement in order to think of a way out of his predicament.
"Who did it?" Bai Qhan's voice was deep as he looked straight at Elder Xunqja's eyes, "who killed my wife?"
"Mr. Lee's teachings, Mr. Qhan," Elder Xunqja said as he protected his body with his spiritual Qi and his essence.
"Add that with the teachings from the collections of the Flowing River Sect's inner court archive and we have a deal," Shung Yun said as he looked at Elder Xunqja.
"The one who killed your wife is Yuan Ku, the Black Pirate," Elder Xunqja said, implying his agreement to Shung Yun's deal.
"You're lying. He will never do that," Bai Qhan shook his head as he rambled, "he will never kill his sister."
"For a powerful treasure, nothing is impossible," Elder Xunqja said to Bai Qhan before looking at Shung Yun, "tomorrow morning, come to the Flowing River Sect to choose three[3] teachings from the inner court archive you wish to know."
"Alright," Shung Yun said as he took out a rolled scroll from his storage ring, "duplicate it and give me back the original tomorrow."
"See you tomorrow then," Elder Xunqja said before leaving the tent.
"Seems like everything here has been handled. I'll be taking my leave now," the commander resting at Shung Yun's right said as he stood up.
"Thanks for your help, Sir," Shung Yun said as he escorted the commander out of the tent.
"I was just doing my job. Be careful not to get into any more trouble," the commander said as one of his subordinate brought his horse towards the entrance of the tent.
"I'll try," Shung Yun said as he watched the commander hopped on his horse.
"You better do," the commander said before riding away with his enforcers, leaving Shung Yun standing alone in front of the tent.
Going back into the tent, Shung Yun saw a dazed Bai Qhan looking straight at the entrance of the tent.
"Is senior alright?" he asked him after taking a couple of steps forward.
"I and Yi'er will be leaving the town tomorrow morning. Take care of yourself and the company," Bai Qhan said as he directed his gaze at Shung Yun.
"I will," Shung Yun said before looking at the female doll in Bai Qhan's right hand, "I'll miss you, Ming Yi. I hope you get back soon."
",..,"
"Because you asked me to, I will," Shung Yun said smiled at the female doll before nodding at Bai Qhan and then leaving the tent.
",.,"
"I have no choice, Yi'er. I can't continue living my life the way I do when I know your mother's killer is out there thriving in the storms of the sea," Bai Qhan said as he communicated with the female doll.
",..,"
"I glad you understand, Yi'er. Go to sleep now," he said as he responded to the imaginary voice of the female doll.
"Why aren't they letting us out?" a lower-stage female youth customer inside Shung Yun inscription company spoke out as she stood in midst of a crowd standing at the back of the entrance door of the three-storied building.
"From the sounds of battle an hour and a half ago, I think Mr. Guchun must have offended the enforcement unit," a middle-stage middle aged man said as he gave his opinion.
"If only the buildings of secretive organizations like Inscription companies have windows on them, we might have seen what is really happening," an upper-stage male teenager said as paced around the first floor of the three-storied building.
At the third floor of the three-storied building, four[4] individuals above forty[40] sat at random positions in the large room containing several stationary accessories and inscribed artifacts of both finished products and unfinished products.
"What do you think might have happened for enforcers to stop customers and employees from leaving the building?" a middle-stage middle aged man having a flower branch in his mouth asked while drawing several runes on the paper in front of him.
"It must be related to the Tanji Family," a middle-stage elderly man inscribing runes on a bracelet said without taking his eyes away from his work.
"The enforcers will definitely be leaving soon. Guchun knows how to handle problems no matter the form they come," an upper-stage middle aged woman said as she kept her gaze on the scroll in her hand.
"His ability to be tolerance and to stay patience has always being Guchun's greatest strength," a lower-stage elderly man said as he inscribed several runes and symbols on a silver sword in front of him.
The Inscribers in charge of the production of the inscribed products in the Guchun Inscription Company conversed among themselves without letting the lockdown of the building affect them.
Arriving in front of the entrance door of his acquired company with two[2] upper-stage Qi birth realm cultivators behind him, Shung Yun pushed it open as a crowd of individuals appeared in front of him.
"Dear customers, apologies for the discomfort caused by the lockdown of the building for past one[1] hour and thirty eight[38] minutes,'' he cupped his hands towards the crowd of customers congregated at the back of the entrance door.
..
"That was exhausting," resting his back on the seat previously owned by Mr. Guchun, Shung Yun said as he looked at the ceiling of the manager's room.
Get blasted with dozens of questions by the customers, he did his best in answering them with the best attitude while also comforting them with the bright future of the company and how their interests will be put first before the company's.
He also had to speak with the staffs of his company and discuss about the best ways to progress the company with the connections and finances it currently has.
"To run an organization is really damn stressful," he said as he took out a lollipop from his storage ring before putting it into his mouth.
With seconds steadily going, Shung Yun fell asleep on the chair while still having his lollipop in his mouth.

"Where am I?" Shung Xu spoke as she saw nothing but darkness all around her after opening her eyes.
"It's so cold," she muttered as she stood barefooted on the cold earth underneath her feet and wearing only a light white colored fabric on her body.
"How did I get here?" she said as she began walking forward after picking a random direction.
Whhfh!
Feeling a presence move behind her, Shung Xu turned back as she asked, "is anyone there?"
Whhfh!
Quickly turning backward again after feeling the same presence behind her, she asked, "can I know who you are?"
Hearing the sound of her increased heartbeat, Shung Xu began looking vigilantly around her as she increased her footsteps.
!!
"Aahhh!!" screaming out loud as she felt a hand on her left shoulder, she quickly pushed herself forward before turning towards the individual that touched her.
"S.. Shung Yun?" sounding surprised as she saw the person in front of her, Shung Xu felt her rapid heartbeat slowly reducing, ""where did you come from?"
",..,"
"Shung Yun?" she called after hearing no response from the middle-stage male teenager on the Byui military uniform in front of her.
"Are you alright?" she asked as she walked towards him.
"Underneath you," Shung Yun mouth moved as low sounds flowed out of it.
"What are you saying? I can't hear you," Shung Xu said as she walked closer to the boy she has given her heart to.
"Underneath you," Shung Yun mouth moved again as low sounds flowed out of it.
"What are you whispering?" Shung Xu asked as she took two[2] steps forward before arriving a foot from Shung Yun.
"Underneath you," Shung Yun mouth moved once again as the sound of his words finally reached Shung Xu.
Finally getting to hear Shung Yun, Shung Xu looked down at the cold and hard earth underneath her bare-feet, "I don't…"
!!
"AAHHHHH!!" she screamed loudly as she rapidly descended into the dark pit that suddenly appeared underneath her after she looked downward.
!!
"AAHHH!!" flaring her eyes wide open, Shung Xu screamed as she tightly squeezed the sheets of her bed.
