"No, I'm leaving tonight. I've already made plans with my best friend."

Jiang Yirou inherited her father's decisiveness; once she made a decision, she never procrastinated.

At this moment, Chen Qingyan felt a pang of sadness. Looking at Jiang Ping, her eyes revealed a deep reluctance, and she couldn't help but say:

Are you leaving too?

Jiang Yirou was still confused but impressed, while Jiang Ping nodded solemnly and said:

"Yes, that's about it. It's time to hit the road."

He had a relatively happy life over the past five years, but he also knew that the issue of his children could not be delayed any longer.

Moreover, his own cultivation slowed down, and he only broke through a barrier once every five years.

Jiang Ping was unwilling to continue this slow improvement.

Now, with the Heavenly Tide shifting again, it's time to leave the island.

He wanted to leave the island to seek medicine, and at the same time, he sought various Divine Medicine to quickly improve his strength.

After reaching the Third Heaven, one must undergo the Tribulation of the Four-Nine Tribulation. The best way to Crossing the Tribulation is to refine Heavenly Medicine using the four Divine Medicine of Earth Water Fire Wind, and then use its immense medicinal properties to smoothly pass through the tribulation.

At the same time, by strengthening oneself with Divine Medicine, one may also have the possibility of awakening Undying characteristic ahead of time.

"Oh? Father, are you also going on your journey?"

This time, it was Jiang Yirou's turn to feel melancholy.

She hadn't had enough of having her parents, brother, and sister by her side, and now, in the blink of an eye, her Old Father was leaving too.

Moreover, she knew that this time her father's departure from the island was different from the past; he was going on a long journey to seek medicine for his younger siblings, and she might not see him again for several years.

"You're allowed to go around Radish Meeting, but you won't let your father leave?"

Jiang Ping smiled.

"How can that be the same?"

Jiang Yirou complained, feeling very reluctant to part.

The journey was long and arduous; her father was about to encounter an incredibly terrifying force, fraught with all sorts of hardships and dangers, and she feared there might be peril.

Don't curse your father.

Chen Qingyan widened immediately; at a time like this, she was saying such unlucky things.

"Don't worry, there aren't many people in this world who can keep me here."

Jiang Ping comforted him.

When are you leaving?

Chen Qingyan asked, her expression complex.

The young one is leaving, and the older one is leaving too; it all happens at the same time.

"Tomorrow."

Jiang Ping answered.

I want to get off the island, but I don't want to linger.

After that, Jiang Yirou stopped leaving home overnight and stayed to spend more time with her father.

She rested her head on Jiang Ping's shoulder. To outsiders, she was Half-Saint, a powerful figure with great prestige, but to Jiang Ping, she was like a child who would never grow up.

"Father."

The little girl, Jiang Yao, unusually took the initiative to hug Jiang Ping's leg; she wanted to sleep with her father, even though she usually had her own room.

Although she was afraid of Jiang Ping, she also sensed that her father was going on a long trip and she would miss him terribly.

"Father, please rest assured. I will undergo the Baptism as usual and strive to recover as soon as possible so I can begin practicing martial arts."

Jiang Hao said.

He was precocious and intelligent, and unlike his older sister, he was not unruly and was very sensible.

"Okay, I'll wait for your good news."

Jiang Ping laughed loudly.

The next day.

With his wife and children watching him go, Jiang Ping set off on his journey, still traveling far away in his Primordial Spirit body.

At the right time and in the right place, everything went smoothly, and Jiang Ping left the island again after five years.

"It's been a long time!"

Jiang Ping stood Xuanxin Island, looking at the Greater Golden Core level Sea Kui frolicking in the distance, and felt a sense of déjà vu.

I encountered this beast the first time I left the island.

"Go."

Jiang Ping didn't exchange pleasantries with the Sea Kui, fearing he might be tempted to eat its flesh and frighten it.

Call out!

Jiang Ping traversed a million miles in a short time and soon landed on Haiyue Island.

Five years had passed, and he wanted to see if his three seniors were doing well.

When Jiang Ping arrived at the Villa where his predecessors had rented, he was somewhat surprised because the residents had changed.

Where did the people who used to live here go?

Jiang Ping inquired, but the homeowner knew nothing about it.

"Why did you move away?"

Jiang Ping pondered for a moment, then raised an eyebrow slightly.

That shouldn't be the case.

"Little Jiang!"

Just then, a joyful shout came from behind.

Jiang Ping turned his head and saw Martial Saint Murong walking excitedly towards him.

"What happened during this time? I thought you were just going home for a short while, but it turned out to be five years. I hadn't heard from you at all, and I almost thought something had happened to you."

Martial Saint Murong looked at Jiang Ping, pleased, and breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm fine."

Jiang Ping briefly explained the reason and asked:

"But what happened to the older folks? They moved."

Upon hearing this, Martial Saint Murong sighed and said:

"Don't even mention it. It's all because of your Senior Jiang. Instead of focusing on cultivation here, he's been flirting with women and getting involved with someone."

Jiang Ping was surprised; Jiang Saint was quite the ladies' man, and his wife was still alive.

According to what Martial Saint Murong said, the woman Jiang Siqi provoked was no ordinary person; she was Great Accomplishment Martial Saint herself, and her father was an even more Spirit Wander Expert.

"Who would have thought that a fishing trip at sea would lead that guy to catch a female saint, who then became pregnant and just gave birth?"

"I can't tell if Martial Saint Murong is indignant or bitter," he said helplessly.

Anyway, because of this incident, they moved house, since the saintess's father had only one request: that she marry into his family.

Currently, Jiang Siqi and Shangguan Chun have both moved into the Spirit Wander Clan, leaving only Martial Saint Murong behind, in case Jiang Ping comes and can't find them.

You must see them.

Martial Saint Murong spoke again, and whispered that Old Jiang's status in the Spirit Wander Clan was not high, and he was ordered around by others.

In fact, Jiang Siqi and his wife wanted to move out, but Spirit Wander Father always disagreed, seemingly implying that he was keeping the two under house arrest.

"Did Shenyou have no son?"

Jiang Ping raised an eyebrow, Murong shook his head. "How could that be? His brothers-in-law usually boss him around and even send him to the battlefield."

Are you alright?

Jiang Ping's eyes narrowed slightly.

"He's doing quite well. Old Jiang is already at the Eighth Heaven of Martial Saint. Unless he uses his divine powers to attack, who at the Martial Saint level can hurt him? However, if he continues to be on the battlefield, I'm afraid something unexpected might happen."

"I still have some worries," said Martial Saint Murong.

Of course, now that Little Jiang has appeared, everything is fine.

"Little Jiang, you're really amazing! We were all shocked when we heard about your fight with Hao Jun."

Martial Saint Murong spoke again, looking at Jiang Ping with a complicated expression.

Five years ago, when news spread that Golden Haze Peerless had been beaten up, they just treated it as gossip. But when they heard the name of the person who beat up Hao Jun, they were instantly shocked.

She controls Life and Death, and commands the Void; her name is Jiang Pingping.

Unbeknownst to outsiders, the three of them instantly understood everything and were completely stunned.

Who is Hao Jun? Golden Haze Peerless, ranked among the Top Five on the Close to the Dao Ranking, and has already passed the Four-Nine Tribulation. He is undeniably strong, and in their eyes, he is a legend.

As a result, the younger generation from Xuanxin Island were even more formidable, achieving a remarkable feat by defeating opponents from a lower realm. They even managed to earn the respect of the Qi Seventh Heaven Great Expert of the Golden Cloud Island, who wanted to settle their score with a single Divine Medicine.

"Oh? Is that so?"

Jiang Ping immediately became interested and asked him if he could get it now.

Martial Saint Murong nodded and said, "I've taken them all out. They're with your friend surnamed Ling, and they're Water Element Divine Medicine."

"Alright, it seems we'll have to go to Golden Cloud Island again."

Jiang Ping was delighted. He was just worried about not having any Divine Medicine, and now resources were being delivered to his doorstep as soon as he left the island.

If he could obtain three more Divine Medicine and refine the Heavenly Medicine, he felt that the Four-Nine Tribulation was not far off.

Once he survives the Four-Nine Tribulation, he will catch up with those Close to the Dao Seed, and he will have more confidence in seeking medicine.

"Let's go see Senior Jiang and the others."

Jiang Ping and Martial Saint Murong left Haiyue Island.
