"This time, I'm not leaving!" Zhou Xun shook his head slightly and voiced the decision he had considered for a long time.
"What? Big Brother, you're not leaving?" Wang Erniu cried out in astonishment.
Lin Xueying, meanwhile, wore a forlorn expression. She had long vaguely sensed Zhou Xun's intentions.
"Yes, I'm not leaving!" Zhou Xun nodded without hesitation. Anyone could hear the resolve in his voice.
For him, returning to Red Leaf Square would not offer much help. With his abilities, breaking through to Late-Stage Qi Condensation was practically within reach.
As for an opportunity for Foundation Establishment, the Lin family could not possibly give him one.
Besides, too many people in Red Leaf Square knew him. For someone who possessed the Ningshun Sutra, that was extremely inconvenient.
Clear Moon Quarter, where no one knew his past, was more suitable instead.
The people here would not question the speed of his cultivation.
"Big Brother, why? Isn't Red Leaf Square better?" Wang Erniu asked, bewildered.
"No feast under heaven lasts forever. We will meet again someday!" Zhou Xun said decisively.
Seeing how resolute Zhou Xun was, Wang Erniu mumbled, not knowing how to persuade him further.
Afterward, they dispersed and began making preparations for their departure.
Lin Xueying personally visited the head of the Song family and revealed her identity.
She was then warmly received by the Song family and treated as an honored guest.
Upon learning Lin Xueying's purpose, the Song family agreed without hesitation. As it happened, one of their caravans would be heading to Jun Sky City in ten days, and Lin Xueying's group could travel with them.
The caravan's leader was the Song family head's cousin, a cultivator at the eighth level of Qi Condensation.
Among the guards traveling with them were two Late-Stage Qi Condensation cultivators.
