Li Xing felt melancholy and laughed to himself.
"Xu Zhu, you might be right. The older I get the more sentimental I feel. Even after all those years of isolation, I still can't let go."
He continued, "I have no need for the umbrella. Let's just consider this as my last favor."
Li Xing had become strong. But the stronger he became, the more others asked him for favors. His junior brothers and sisters, his friend, and even his master.
He glanced to Ruan Qing and her mother eating happily. "With the umbrella protecting them, nothing can harm them."
The first thing he had done when he finished his junior brothers favor was to check on Jia Xue's descendants.
Taking one last glance, he felt his heart disturbed.
With a wave of his hand, a barrier formed around the whole village.
Although it wasn't as powerful as the restriction he had put on the three realms, he was confident no one would be able to break it.
It was time to leave.
He turned his gaze to the horizon as his figure vanished.
However, even people, would try to break it no matter the cost.
In the underworld, Zi Hao sat on his black skeleton throne. His eyes rested with his hand supporting his chin in a lazy manner. A servant arrived near his feet, as they kneeled in reverence.
"Your majesty, " The servant spoke, "There's something wrong."
Zi Hao looked uninterested as he still kept his eyes closed, "What's wrong?" His voice was calm and cold.
"A village called Willow'a Rest seem to have a enchanted barrier surrounding it."
"So what? Just a small village that's not even worth listening to." He raised his hand, killing intent surged as he slowly opened his eyes. "I don't need useless people."
The servants body twisted. It used all of its strength to speak, "Y-your Majesty, inisde is a magic treasure!"
Zi Hao's hand flinched as he let goof the pressure holding the servant.
"Talk, leave no details out!"
A magic treasure made from the breakthrough of an immortal held the essence of heaven and earth. As such, they usually contained heaven defying abilities. But of course, the magic weapon can only be as strong as the immortal it was made from.
However there were also many immortals that died and had their magic treasures lost in the vast universe.
Such opportunities were scarce, but were well worth it.
"J-just 2 months ago, contact with several demons were lost. We were dispatched to confirm the situation and learned about the barrier." He looked up in fear and continued, "This barrier was strange. Anyone could pass through it, but if someone were to harbor evil intent, the barrier would send out thunder and flames to burn it's enemies. A-as if it was alive."
Zi Hao tapped on his throne in deep thought, "How did you know that there was a magic treasure in the barrier?"
"Actually, a mortal girl has it."
"Hoh?" Zi Hao rubbed his chin, "To be able to hold a magic treasure, what exactly is her identity? Interesting~"
He looked back to the servant.
"She might be a disciple of a famous immortal or even have relatives in the Celestial Realm. Have some men to investigate if anyone in the Celestial Realm have gone down to the mortal realm."
"Yes!"
The servant backed slowly and left, leaving Zi Hao to himself. He spoke in curiosity, "A free magic treasure?"
