The next day.
After Wang Shouzhe and the others rested briefly, they split up to act separately.
Ancestor Xuanfu led the groups heading in the other directions, grandly leading everyone away.
As for Wang Shouzhe's side, Wang Shouxin led him to Evergreen Valley.
Nominally, he was an External Student under Master Changchun. The Evergreen True Art he cultivated contained only the Qi Refining Chapter.
