After Duan Ling Tian took a deep breath, he left his room in search of the Pavilion Master of the Imperial Tutor Pavilion to confirm that the Profound Nether Mansion was capable of stopping the Phantom Fox Clan. Although the pavilion master had said the Profound Nether Mansion had no need to fear the Phantom Fox Clan, he was not sure if the pavilion master had said that only to uphold the mansion’s prestige. He was not certain about the Profound Nether Mansion’s status in the Southern Heaven Territory so he thought it was better to confirm the matter again with the pavilion master.

As soon as Duan Ling Tian saw the pavilion master, he bluntly asked, “Senior, I’m afraid the Phantom Fox Clan might come to the Profound Nether Mansion for Huan’er soon. Is the mansion capable of protecting her?”

The old man who was unaware of the current situation asked, “What’s going on?”

“The Branch Leader of the Phantom Fox Clan must have obtained some information from the assassins of the Blood Skull Gang lurking outside the estate. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have sent his men to the borderland,” Duan Ling Tian said after he had recounted what happened to the old man.

The old man asked, “Why are the members of the Phantom Fox Clan so persistent about finding Huan’er? What’s the branch leader after?”

Duan Ling Tian smiled wryly. “Senior, I’m afraid it’s inconvenient for me to say much… I only want to know if the Phantom Fox Clan comes knocking on the Profound Nether Mansion’s door, is the mansion capable of protecting Huan’er?”

“So this is what you’re worried about?” The old man shook his head. “Didn’t I say the Phantom Fox Clan won’t dare to act boldly in front of the Profound Nether Mansion? Do you doubt my words?”

“It’s not that I doubt your words, I just want to be certain.” Duan Ling Tian was slightly embarrassed. After all, he did come looking for the old man out of doubt. Nevertheless, he felt relieved after hearing the old man’s words. He did not think the old man was lying.

“Don’t worry. Even with the combined forces of two branches from the Phantom Fox Clan, they’re no match for the Profound Nether Mansion!” A hint of contempt flashed in the old man’s eyes when he spoke. It was clear he did not think much of the Phantom Fox Clan. He continued to say, “Rest assured. All you need to do is to focus on improving your cultivation base as fast as you can. As long as I’m in the Profound Nether Mansion, there’s no need for you to worry.”

“Thank you, senior,” Duan Ling Tian sincerely thanked the old man before he returned to his room to cultivate.

After Duan Ling Tian left, the old man’s eyes glinted as he murmured to himself, “It seems like that woman is the Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox that the Clan Leader of the Phantom Fox Clan in the Seven Upper Province is looking for. I remember the clan leader even spread the word in the black market and offered to reward anyone who could provide clues about the woman’s whereabouts. The rewards offered are tempting even to someone like me. Alas, since I’ve decided to bet on that kid, I’ll have to see through that decision…”

After a moment, the old man returned to sitting by the lake and continued to fish as though nothing had happened.

…

Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian’s family and friends who had left the Divine Offering Land were all separated and sent to different mundane realms. All of them had different encounters, but only a few of them came across fortuitous encounters. Nevertheless, most of their cultivation bases had improved. This was because they had been absorbing the Heaven and Spirit Energy in the Divine Offering Land. In the mundane realms, there was no one whose cultivation speed was as fast as theirs.

…

In the Purple Spike Realm, one of the many mundane realms in the Colossal World.

“Aunt Xue Nai, hurry up and leave! I’ll distract these people!” a teenager said anxiously to the woman next to him. He was handsome with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes.

At this moment, they were hovering among the stars in the surroundings of a planet.

“Nian Tian, you have to leave! If something happens to you, how am I going to face Brother Ling Tian and Sister Fei’er in the future?” The woman who had spoken was so beautiful that the stars seemed to dim in her presence.

The teenager and the woman were none other than Duan Nian Tian and Han Xue Nai. They were among the people whom Xia Jie rescued and sent out from the Divine Offering Land. Both of them were sent to the same mundane realm, but Han Xue Nai only met Duan Nian Tian later.

A few years had passed, and Duan Nian Tian had grown from a naive child to a teenager.

“Aunt Xue Nai…” Before Duan Nian Tian could finish his sentence, a gust of wind swept toward them from afar.

“There’s no need for both of you to continue talking because none of you will be able to escape.”

A group of 30 people surrounded the duo in just an instant.

The leader of the group was an old lady. She was holding a crooked crutch and riding a strange beast that seemed to be a mix between a tiger and a lion.

“Grandma, why are you wasting your breath talking to them? Since they kill Qi’er, they should pay with their lives!” a middle-aged man dressed in luxurious robes standing next to the old man said. He glared at Duan Nian Tian and Han Xue Nai fiercely. The duo had killed his only son after all.

Duan Nian Tian looked at the middle-aged man and scoffed before he said, “We wouldn’t have attacked your son if he didn’t pester my aunt. He deserves to die!” A hint of anger could be seen on his child-like face when he spoke.

“Nian Tian, let’s not waste energy talking to them. Since they came looking for a fight, let’s give them a fight!” Han Xue Nai said coldly before energy surged out of her body. As soon as she raised her hand, a brilliant ice blade shot out and instantly killed three men who were standing nearby. Her expression remained unchanged as she killed the three men. She did not feel guilty at all for taking their lives due to their despicable behavior.

“Kill her!” the old lady said angrily as she pointed at Han Xue Nai.

The middle-aged man, whose son was killed, and the remaining people charged toward Duan Nian Tian while the old woman charged toward Han Xue Nai.

The old woman was the strongest among everyone present, followed by Han Xue Nai and the middle-aged man.

Han Xue Nai was suppressed by the old woman.

Although Duan Nian Tian was no weaker than the group of people, he was not a match for the middle-aged man.

With that, Han Xue Nai and Duan Ling Tian quickly fell into a disadvantageous position.

“Die!” the middle-aged man said icily as energy shot out from his fingers like silk threads toward Duan Nian Tian.

“Nian Tian!” Han Xue Nai cried out anxiously. She suffered a blow from the old woman as she deflected the middle-aged man’s attack on Duan Nian Tian. Although she managed to save him in the nick of time, she was heavily injured. At this moment, it seemed as though her life was about to come to an end.

“Nian Tian, are you alright?” Han Xue Nai asked worriedly despite her heavy injuries. Her face was pale, and her eyes were brimming with anxiety.

Since Duan Nian Tian and Han Xue Nai’s backs were facing each other, Duan Nian Tian was not aware of her serious injuries nor did he see her pale face.

The old woman said with a sneer, “You can’t even protect yourself, but you want to protect that brat?”

“Today’s the day you die, brat!” the middle-aged man said coldly as he looked at Duan Nian Tian as though Duan Nian Tian was a dead man walking.

However, Duan Nian Tian did not seem to hear his words. At this moment, his eyes were focused on something in the distance as though something had caught his attention.

Upon seeing this, the middle-aged man followed the direction of Duan Nian Tian’s gaze and saw a purple-clad woman approaching them from a distance.

The purple-clad woman was a peerless beauty with a curvaceous figure. Her long and silky hair fluttered in the air even though there was no wind. Purple lightning bolts could be seen flashing in the purple energy that shrouded her body at this moment.

Meanwhile, Han Xue Nai who had seen the purple-clad woman as well exclaimed in shock, “Sister Fei’er?”

“Mother?” Tears brimmed in Duan Nian Tian’s eyes when he saw the familiar figure.

The purple-clad woman was none other than Li Fei. For years, she had been searching the entire Purple Spike Realm for Duan Nian Tian. It was only recently that she had found clues that finally led her to her son who was facing a life-or-death situation.

“Mother! Leave at once!” Duan Nian Tian’s expression changed drastically as he urgently sent a Voice Transmission to his mother. He knew his mother’s strength was on par with his at most. If Han Xue Nai, who was stronger than him, was not a match for the old lady, how could his mother be a match for the old lady?

Similarly, Han Xue Nai sent a Voice Transmission to Li Fei, urging her to leave. “Sister Fei’er, hurry up and leave!” At the same time, she no longer looked at Li Fei, pretending she was not familiar with Li Fei.

Li Fei, who was hovering in the air, finally shifted her eyes away from her son and Han Xue Nai to the group of people. Her gaze turned frosty immediately.

At the same time, everyone felt the surroundings’ temperature drop. It felt as though winter had arrived.

Li Fei said, “All of you… go to hell!”
