Sword clashes were heard in the courtyard of the Xiao Clan. w.a.n.g Ling was exchanging clashes with Xiao Jianfa. Xiao Jianfa was full of smiles as he fought with w.a.n.g Ling.

His current cultivation is capped to late-grand saint stage cultivation as w.a.n.g Ling had advanced prior to getting the Bleeding Cloud and getting pushed to the brink by Xiao Jianfa.

It was an easy breakthrough, after all, w.a.n.g Ling was already at the brink of breaking through the next stage before his fight with Xiao Jianfa. And with the help of Bleeding Cloud, w.a.n.g Ling managed to get break the barrier of the next stage.

w.a.n.g Ling's advancement managed to shock Xiao Jianfa even more. In his mind, w.a.n.g Ling was already an enigma that was hated by the heavens. He thought that way because w.a.n.g Ling had that weird condition when he was a child.

Such thoughts was exactly the same as w.a.n.g Hong's like last time.

Xiao Jianfa and w.a.n.g Ling's exchanged was being watched by Xiao Yu, Xiao Fei'er, Bai Xue, and w.a.n.g Yue. w.a.n.g Hong was determined to go into seclusion after seeing w.a.n.g Ling's prowess.

The pressure he felt from w.a.n.g Ling managed to invoke something within w.a.n.g Hong and w.a.n.g Ling advised him go and enter seclusion to see if he could push through the next stage.

Xiao Jianfa was smiling ever so widely as he fought w.a.n.g Ling once again. The sharpness of w.a.n.g Ling's swordsmans.h.i.+p had increased tremendously after he got Bleeding Cloud.

The two stopped moments when the sun reached its peak. It was time.

"w.a.n.g Ling my boy, your sword skill had already reached such heights at such a young age. It seems like the Xiao Clan's bloodline truly runs in your veins." Xiao Jianfa laughed as he kept the sword away.

"Thank you for the compliments, grandfather."

w.a.n.g Ling stretched his back and then saw w.a.n.g Yue running towards him. On w.a.n.g Yue's head was Bai Xue jumped on top of w.a.n.g Ling's shoulders the moment she got the chance.

Xiao Fei'er walked also approached w.a.n.g Ling, Xiao Yu did the same.

Xiao Fei'er hugged w.a.n.g Ling and said, "Take care of yourself out there, my son. Do not get into too much trouble."

w.a.n.g Ling's departure had already been talked about weeks ago after the talk w.a.n.g Ling and Xiao Jianfa had. That talk was kept between w.a.n.g Ling and Xiao Jianfa, no one but other than the two of them know of its contents.

Xiao Fei'er did not have anything to say to w.a.n.g Ling other than take care. But still, Xiao Fei'er was worried about w.a.n.g Ling.

Xiao Fei'er looked at w.a.n.g Ling and then nodded her head. Turning to Xiao Jianfa, she said, "Father, can put your will on Ling'er instead of mine? I will much a.s.sures if it is your [Will] that will be seen when he is in danger."

Xiao Jianfa shrugged his shoulders and was about to take a step forward. But Xiao Yu stopped him while saying with a smile, "I will place my will on him. Dear, please step back."

Xiao Fei'er and Xiao Jianfa looked at once another with a surprised look on their faces. They did not expect Xiao Yu to actually place her will on w.a.n.g Ling. Now, Xiao Fei'er was truly a.s.sured that no matter what happens, w.a.n.g Ling will have a last resort. Though she was indeed kind of feeling a little worried about the repercussion of this happen if w.a.n.g Ling truly did experience something bad.

[With me coming out the realm is going to be in chaos anyway. It will only be for a few anyway, it will all be good, yeah… yeah, those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds won't like so early anyway.]

Xiao Yu walked pa.s.s Xiao Fei'er and placed her palms on w.a.n.g Ling's chest. She closed her eyes and then opened them again.

w.a.n.g Ling did not know what just happened, and he did not feel any different. But w.a.n.g Ling saw Xiao Fei'er suddenly feeling a.s.sured so something must have changed.

Xiao Fei'er hugged him one last time and then w.a.n.g Yue did the same. The mother and daughter also gave Bai Xue a little hug and asked her to take care of w.a.n.g Ling and herself.

Bai Xue a.s.sured them that nothing was going to happen, "Please do not worry, I will take care of him" she said.

w.a.n.g Ling then crouched down to face w.a.n.g Yue, he took a storage ring out and then handed it over to w.a.n.g Yue, "In here contains the refined blood essence of a Greater Holy Lord, this will help you in your cultivation, Yue. And hopefully, this triggers a connection between you and the realm above."

w.a.n.g Yue accepted the ring from her older brother, "I will try my best to improve, older brother."

w.a.n.g Ling nodded his head and merely smiled as he encouraged with a few words of, "You can do it."

With that, goodbyes were over and nothing was left to be said anymore. w.a.n.g Ling turned around and then flew away. The next time he would be seeing his family would be months later when the Ten Year Bout stars. Given that he was still alive by then.

After all, the area he would be going through was littered with his enemies.

His goal was the Devil Domain to join in the auction for the Devil's Curse and complete the main materials he would need for his Natal Weapon.

But in order to get there, w.a.n.g Ling would need to cross two domains littered with the enemies of his families. First domain he would pa.s.s through would be the Dark Domain where the Xie Clan resides.

Then, he would need to pa.s.s the Earth Domain where the Beast Legion Sect is situated. Both Domains filled with his enemies, a place where he could die at any moment if he takes a misstep at this moment manages to keep a smile on w.a.n.g Ling's face.

Taking a devil mask from his storage ring, w.a.n.g Ling got ready to wreak some havoc. The last time he put this mask on, the Frost Domain knew the name of the Northern Devil.

With the brilliance of the w.a.n.g Family's First Young Master s.h.i.+ning ever so brightly, now would be the perfect time to let the devil out of the cage and let his devil persona see the light of day.
