Leaving the North Sea Cultivation World
"That's right, it's a misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding."
The young man in the blue robe echoed his agreement, letting out a sigh of relief.
Shen Long Longchong instructed Song Yan, "You go back first! I have something to say to Fellow Daoist Ximen and Fellow Daoist Lin."
"Yes, Senior Shen."
Song Yan agreed and bowed as she withdrew.
"Qingyun, you should step down too! Don't cause me any more trouble."
Loose Immortal Xuanyu gave the instructions.
Lin Qingyun responded and left as well.
Shen Long sat down in the stone pavilion and chatted with Ximen Hai and Loose Immortal Xuanyu.
More than an hour later, Shen Long took his leave.
After leaving Green Flood Dragon Garden, Shen Long arrived at Sun Yiyue's residence, where Sun Yiyue, Song Yan, and Song Sen were all present.
"Greetings, Senior Shen."
Song Sen and the other two bowed respectfully.
If it weren't for Shen Long's help this time, Song Yan would have been dragged into a fire pit.
"I've already spoken with Fellow Daoist Ximen, and Fellow Daoist Lin said he won't allow his descendants to harass Young Friend Song anymore."
Shen Long said.
"Senior Shen's kindness is beyond my ability to repay. But if you have any instructions, I will gladly die for you."
Song Sen knelt down and expressed his gratitude.
"Get up! There's no need for such formality. Your father-in-law has been kind to me."
Shen Long said, "Help Song Sen get up."
"Don't reveal my real identity or name to anyone, understand? Just know that my surname is Shen, and I'm Third Rank Alchemist."
Shen Long gave instructions.
He calls himself Shen Zhu and doesn't want others to know his true identity.
"I understand, senior, please rest assured."
Sun Yiyue readily agreed.
Shen Long gave a few instructions, then turned and left.
Back at the Green Falcon Pavilion, Shen Long entered the Cultivation Room, sat cross-legged on a Red Prayer Mat, swallowed a Blood Flood Dragon Pill, and began to cultivate.
Before long, Shen Long's body was enveloped in a Red Rosy Clouds, and Red Dragon Scales grew on his body. A series of crackling sounds came from his body, and a powerful energy surged within him. He quickly circulated his internal energy to guide it towards his Dantian.

Three Immortals Island, Three Immortals Sect.
In a secluded manor, Lin Yan was reporting to Jiang Yan.
"What! He got away again?"
Jiang Yan frowned and said.
"If it weren't for my Fire Wing Talisman, I would have perished as well. He cultivates the Spirit Beast Control Technique, and those Golden Feather Wings are not Law Treasure, but physical objects."
Lin Yan said.
Although he failed to capture the other party this time, Lin Yan still managed to gather a considerable amount of information.
"Spirit Beast Control Technique! The scope has been narrowed further. He possesses an Ice Flood Dragon and Core Formation Mid Stage cultivation level. Send more people to search secretly. If Chu Buyu didn't obtain the Spirit Treasure, it's most likely with this kid."
Jiang Yan gave the instructions.
"Yes, Aunt Jiang."
Lin Yan readily agreed.
······
Two months have passed, Golden Flood Dragon Marketplace.
The door to a secret room in the Green Falcon Pavilion opened, and Shen Long stepped out.
He was preparing to return to the East Hua Cultivation World. If he stayed in the North Sea Cultivation World, who knew when the Nascent Soul Cultivator from the Three Immortals Sect would come knocking on his door?
After leaving Green Falcon Pavilion, Shen Long strolled around the streets.
He arrived at Sun Family Artifact Shop, where Sun Yiyue and Song Sen were greeting customers.
Shen Long's arrival attracted the attention of many cultivators.
"Senior Shen, what brings you here? Just let me know if there's anything you need."
Sun Yiyue greeted him warmly and invited Shen Long inside.
"I was just passing by and stopped by to see you. I don't need these second-tier Monster Beast Material, so I'm giving them to you. Take them and use them for weapon forging!"
Shen Long took out a Cyan Storage Bag and handed it to Sun Yiyue.
He came specifically to support Sun Yiyue and to let other cultivators know that there was a Core Formation Cultivator behind Sun Family Artifact Shop.
The North Sea Cultivation World is rich in Demon Beast resources. He will visit North Sea Cultivation World again in the future, and Sun Yiyue and her family of three can help him gather some information.
"Oh, Fellow Daoist Shen, what a coincidence! You're here to buy something?"
A familiar male voice rang out.
Shen Long turned his head and saw Song He walking towards him.
"Fellow Daoist Song, this is a descendant of an old friend of mine. If you need to dispose of some second-tier Monster Beast Material, you might consider them."
Shen Long pointed at Sun Yiyue and said.
The Five Friends of Coral are, after all Core Formation Cultivator. With Shen Long absent, they can help take care of Sun Yiyue and Yier.
"No problem, it's a piece of cake."
Song He readily agreed.
"This junior, Sun Yiyue, thanks Senior Song."
Sun Yiyue bowed and expressed her gratitude.
"I have something to take care of, you guys go ahead and do your work!"
After saying this, Shen Long left with Song He.
"I know that senior. His surname is Song and his given name is He. He is the leader of the Five Friends of Coral and has four sworn brothers and sisters."
"Judging from Senior Song's attitude, he seems to have a very good relationship with this Senior Shen!"
"You all have no sense of propriety. Senior Shen is very close to the Core Formation Cultivator of the Han and Su Family. I heard from Fellow Daoist He that Senior Shen is proficient in alchemy and can refine High-Grade Medicinal Pill. I didn't expect Fellow Daoist Song and Lady Sun to know Senior Shen."
The Foundation Establishment Cultivator inside the shop whispered among themselves, their faces filled with envy.
None of them expected that Sun Yiyue had such a powerful background.
Shen Long invited Song He to the Green Falcon Pavilion and served Song He tea.
"How is Fellow Daoist Huang recovering? Is he alright now?"
Shen Long asked, Song He a cup of fragrant tea.
Song He took the teacup and said, "Thanks to Fellow Daoist Shen, my third brother is out of danger."
"Fellow Daoist Song, do you still have any Third Rank Demon Core on you?"
Shen Long asked.
"There are still more than ten left. If Fellow Daoist Shen doesn't mind, please take them all!"
Song He took out a Blue Storage Bag and handed it to Shen Long.
Shen Long didn't stand on ceremony, accepting the Storage Bag and taking out a Cyan Porcelain Bottle. He handed it to Song He, saying, "Fellow Daoist Song, these are two bottles of Golden Ganoderma Pill. They have excellent healing effects. Consider this my purchase of the Demon Core from you. I have some business to attend to and will be leaving the Marketplace for a while. If possible, please look after young friend Sun."
"Do you need our help? You saved our third brother, so you're the benefactor of all five of us siblings. Please don't hesitate to ask if you need any assistance."
Song He said solemnly.
"Thank you for your kindness, but I can handle it myself. I just don't know when I'll be able to come back."
Shen Long politely declined.
"No problem, I'll take care of young friend Sun for you."
Song He promised.
Shen Long nodded and said, "By the way, has the Three Immortals Sect still not captured Lu Qian?"
"Not yet. They've increased the reward, but there are still no leads. Maybe Lu Qian is hiding somewhere, perhaps even in Golden Flood Dragon Marketplace."
Song He guessed.
"I heard that the Three Immortals Sect took action against Chu Buyu. Is the Sun and Moon Palace just going to let it go like this?"
Shen Long asked doubtfully, "This isn't a secret."
"I heard that the Three Immortals Sect has allied with the Heaven Ghost Sect, and their overall power now surpasses that of the Sun and Moon Palace. After all, Chu Buyu still alive, and the Sun and Moon Palace is unlikely to fight the Heaven Ghost Sect to the death over this matter. Every cultivator who can reach the Nascent Soul Realm stage is shrewd and wouldn't do a losing proposition."
Song He said.
After chatting for the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Song He took his leave.
Shen Long left the Green Falcon Pavilion and arrived at the entrance of a magnificent palace. The plaque above the entrance bore the three golden characters "Golden Flood Dragon Hall." Many people were going in and out. There was Teleportation Array here that could transport people back to the Inner Sea.
Shen Long turned his head and glanced at the Golden Flood Dragon Marketplace, his face showing reluctance.
If he hadn't been targeted by the Three Immortals Sect, he really wouldn't have wanted to leave the North Sea Cultivation World so soon. He turned around and walked into the Golden Flood Dragon Hall, paid 10,000 Spirit Stone, and went to a Teleportation Array array.
Once ten people had gathered, the guard cast a spell, and a dazzling burst of spiritual light engulfed Shen Long and the others.
The light faded, and Shen Long and the others disappeared.
