Miss Hong didn't stay for long this time.

She left.

After thoroughly searching the hidden world, she staggered away.

For Miss Hong, after the departure this time, she would probably never come here again in the future.

When she left, Lin Jiufeng wanted to send her off.

But Miss Hong rejected it.

She still handed the letter she wrote to Lin Jiufeng.

"If you encountered someone from the Heavenly Dao Sect, hand this to that person. Tell him or her that I'm waiting and that I'll always be waiting," Miss Hong said to Lin Jiufeng.

She still had hope.

Even if only one person came back, she would also be very touched.

Lin Jiufeng received the letter and watched Miss Hong's departing figure in silence.

Miss Hong came with hope and also left with hope.

But there was more than one difference between the two.

After Miss Hong left, Lin Jiufeng began to observe the ancient city.

Millions of people had moved in at once. The ancient city had to double in size to accommodate these people.

And those top took the initiative to manage these people, allowing the ancient city to operate perfectly.

These people settled down here.

Lin Jiufeng brought the little white cat and walked into the ancient city.

He still went to Old Man Luo's shop as usual.

But now, Old Man Luo rarely opened his shop anymore. With so many people living in the ancient city now, he had lost his original composure. He didn't open the breakfast shop to earn money, he just wanted to experience life and experience the mortal world.

Now that various breakfast shops were opened, he stopped his business and only served some old customers.

Old Man Luo was surprised to see Lin Jiufeng.

Lin Jiufeng hadn't been here for more than a month.

"Mr. Lin, long time no see. Do you still want the same three items?" Old Man Luo asked with a smile.

"Yes, the old three items." Lin Jiufeng nodded. He chose a seat and sat down, waiting quietly.

Not long after, Old Man Luo brought out the breakfast and said, "Mr. Lin, please enjoy."

Lin Jiufeng nodded. Then, he ate slowly and enjoyed it with the white cat.

After breakfast, Lin Jiufeng looked at Old Man Luo, who was chatting with the others. He said softly, "I shan't pay today."

"It's okay, it's on the house for Mr. Lin," Old Man Luo indifferently replied.

"In the future, all of your meals will be free from now on. It will be my honor to treat you to something cooked by me."

Old Man Luo chuckled.

Lin Jiufeng smiled calmly and said, "I'm afraid you will be disappointed. I'm leaving, I won't come again in the future."

Old Man Luo looked at Lin Jiufeng in surprise.

The old customers in the breakfast shop all stood up and looked at Lin Jiufeng.

Mr. Lin was leaving?

"Mr. Lin, where are you going?" Old Man Luo asked curiously.

"To where I must go," Lin Jiufeng said.

"You won't suppress us anymore?" Old Man Luo asked, puzzled.

The others looked at Lin Jiufeng expectantly.

Once Lin Jiufeng left, would they be free too?

"Even if I'm not around, I can still suppress all of you. I'm very familiar with each and every one of you here. If you leave the ancient city and make just a little bit of name for yourself after leaving, the outcome will be very bad for you when I find out." Lin Jiufeng nonchalantly threatened.

Everyone's hearts turned cold. Lin Jiufeng was right.

Even though Lin Jiufeng was leaving this place, they still didn't dare to act presumptuously.

This was Lin Jiufeng's prestige.

"But you lot don't have to worry. The world is changing very fast now. Ten years, I will suppress you all for another ten years. For ten years, you are not allowed to leave this place," Lin Jiufeng said solemnly.

Old Man Luo was surprised. "Only ten years?"

Ten years was a very long time for mortals.

But for cultivators, especially cultivators at the Void Returning realm, ten years was a blink of an eye.

One seclusion, one enlightenment, one cultivation… About ten years would have passed after that.

That was why Old Man Luo was so surprised.

Not only Old Man Luo but the others were also surprised.

"For the next ten years, if anyone leaves the oasis and I heard about it, I will hunt down and kill that person no matter how far away I am," Lin Jiufeng said solemnly.

"I promise, I won't leave." Old Man Luo immediately guaranteed his safety.

It was just ten years. To them, ten years was only a blink of an eye if they worked hard and focused on improving themselves.

The others also agreed.

They could leave after ten years anyway. Why bother offending a terrifying existence at the False Immortal Realm?

"Good…"

"Inform the others about this news, I will leave first." Lin Jiufeng got up and walked out of the breakfast shop.

He walked away without looking back.

Old Man Luo and the others followed Lin Jiufeng to the gate of the ancient city.

They watched as Lin Jiufeng left, and his figure completely disappeared into the horizon.

All of them were excited. The huge mountain that was pressing down on their heads all these years had finally disappeared.

Although they still had ten years before they could leave, it didn't matter anymore.

Right now, they only wanted to spread this good news.

…

The white cat followed Lin Jiufeng and asked curiously, "Leaving the Mountain Sea Realm, where are we going now?"

"Back to the imperial capital!" Lin Jiufeng said.

"Let's go back and take a look at the Cold Palace. After all, that's the place where we've lived the longest. It shouldn't have collapsed yet," the white cat said happily.

"Yes, we should go back and take a look." Lin Jiufeng nodded. The Cold Palace would definitely become very dilapidated, but it wouldn't collapse.

Because the powerful magic treasure [Light of the Homes] was protecting the Cold Palace.

"Hahaha, we've been in the Northwest Territory for more than three years. We can finally go back." The white cat was very happy and excited.

Seeing that she was happy, Lin Jiufeng didn't disturb her. He took the little white cat with him and left the Mountain Sea Realm, arriving at the entrance to the Northwest Territory.

The entrance to the Northwest Territory was already very prosperous. It had absorbed a lot of common people to settle here. Also, the original people in the ancient city who left three years ago had also returned to this place where their dreams started.

Lin Jiufeng came here again after more than three years.

Just like last time, he stayed for a while and didn't leave immediately.

Also like last time, Lin Jiufeng found someone to ask about the changes in the outside world.

In the mouth of this person, the world was peaceful and calm. The regime of the Yuhua God Dynasty was stable. Emperor De was one of the wisest emperors in the last thousand years, suppressing all the cultivators to the point that they didn't dare to speak up.

The catastrophe of the parasite worms that happened at the borders ended with the Yuhua God Dynasty's complete victory.

Especially when the countless factions discovered Bai Tiandi, they became so scared that they didn't dare to come into conflict with the Yuhua God Dynasty once again.

By now, only one or two months had passed since then.

The aftershocks of the battle had yet to dissipate, so the world was quiet.

The Yuhua God Dynasty encountered no troublemaker at all

After hearing this, Lin Jiufeng left the Northwest Territory in peace and headed for the imperial capital.

Shrinking long distances into inches!

Tearing through space!

The current Lin Jiufeng could move unbelievably fast.

In just a few minutes, he arrived at the imperial capital of the Yuhua God Dynasty.

Standing outside the imperial capital and looking at the majestic buildings inside, Lin Jiufeng was filled with emotions. "I'm back!"

After more than three years, Lin Jiufeng returned to the place that he was most familiar with.

The imperial capital of the Yuhua God Dynasty!

His target?

The Cold Palace!
