“My lord, my lord!”

 “Dad!”

 Tie Fan, Tie Ling, and the others knelt in front of Tie Pin and began to cry in loud voices. Meanwhile, Yunxiao and Duan Yue stood by in silent tribute, bowing slightly with solemn expressions.

 Gradually, Tie Pin’s body turned soft and light, and then it was ablaze by itself and began burning. Tie Fan and the others were crying and did not look surprised, as if they knew it would happen. ‘It should also be because their bloodline was baptized by the phoenix’s nirvana fire.’ Yunxiao sighed with mixed emotions in his heart. He did not expect the Phoenix True Flame to be so powerful that it had changed the bloodline of an entire clan for over ten thousand years.

 Soon, Tie Pin’s body turned into nothingness in the flames and completely disappeared into the sea. At that moment, Tie Fan and the others slowly stopped crying and stood up.

 Yunxiao broke the silence by saying, “Everyone, my business here is done. I’ll take my leave now.”

 There was a trace of resentment in Tie Fan’s eyes as he said crossly, “Don’t think that just because you’re the Holy Herald, you’re above the Firefish clan. Why didn’t you agree to our clan chief when he begged you to stay? You could just lie to him and make him leave us in peace!”

 Yunxiao squinted at him and said, “The future of the Firefish clan is in your own hands. Do you wish to entrust your future to an outsider?”

 That gave Tie Fan a pause. While frowning, he said, “You are the Holy Herald, so we naturally believe you.”

 Yunxiao gave a cold snort and said, “Since you believe me, I naturally cannot lie to you, including your old clan chief.”

 “This…” Tie Fan fell silent.

 “Lord Holy Herald!”

 Tie Ling walked up as he looked at Yunxiao expectantly and said shyly, “I wish to learn the art of sea refining from my lord.”

 Yunxiao smiled. “You do have a gift.” He pondered for a moment and said, “Your father has just passed away, and you are the new elder of the Firefish clan. There are a lot of things for you to deal with. Well, when the Firefish clan settles down, you can come to the city of Yanwu to find me at any time. I will teach you my art of alchemy.”

 “The city of Yanwu?” Tie Ling’s eyes grew wide, and he felt a little nervous. Although sea people could live on land, he had never been to the human continent.

 “Yes. I’m the City Lord of Yanwu, and my name is Li Yunxiao!” Yunxiao patted him on the forehead as he smiled and said, “Yanwu is located in the state of Tianshui near the Firecrow Empire, which lies in the south of the Heavenly Martial Continent. Whenever you come, you can see me there.”

 Tie Ling clenched his fists tightly and said firmly, “When things settle down in the Firefish clan, I’ll definitely go to Yanwu to find Lord Holy Herald! I want to learn all Lord Holy Herald’s art of alchemy and become a guru of sea refining!”

 “I will wait for you to come to me, and I will wait for you to become the best sea refiner in the Four Seas, surpassing Ha Si, Xue Lai, and An Sen.”

 Tie Ling was stunned, and he asked with a shocking expression, “My lord, do you know these three legendary gurus of sea refining?”

 Tie Fan and the others were shocked as well. The three names Yunxiao mentioned were the best sea refiners in the Four Seas. They were revered by thousands like the gods over the cloud, and their status was not inferior to that of the Kings of the Four Seas.

 Yunxiao laughed and said, “They are nothing but three old men. You are as talented as any of them.”

 Tie Ling froze completely. He had never dreamed of comparing himself to the three legendary men. Yunxiao’s words were like a seed of dreams, deeply buried in his heart and waiting for the day of germination.

 “Since my lord has decided to leave, I’ll let Tie Fei lead the way for you,” said Tie Fan with a sigh. “After all, the sea is too large, and I’m afraid you’ll get lost.”

 Yunxiao nodded slightly. After that, Tie Fei quickly and respectfully led the way ahead, bringing both men up to the surface.

 When they came, he had used ropes to bring them, but when they left, he was respectful.

 Tie Fei was grateful. The fated chance of bringing Yunxiao to his clan had greatly benefited him. He had advanced three realms in the Kunwu Divine Tree, and he was now an eight-stars Martial Grandmaster. In the Firefish clan, he was just weaker than Tie Fan and the other two. If he were to cultivate himself, it would take him at least seventy to eighty years to achieve the same result.

 The three of them sped through the sea, and they were soon back on the surface, finally able to see the bright blue sky again.

 Tie Fei knew Yunxiao was not a Martial Grandmaster yet and could not hover in mid-air, so he produced a bubble with an incantation gesture and made it float under Yunxiao’s feet, allowing him to stand firmly in the sky.

 “My lord, this is where we first met. May I know how my lord is going to get back?”

 Yunxiao glanced around at the boundless sea, and then he rested his eyes on a small island in the distance and said, “We’ll rest on that island first. We don’t know when the rainbow fog will appear again, so we can only wait for it now.”

 It was a small uninhabited island, about dozens of miles long and wide. After landing on it, Yunxiao asked Tie Fei to go back.

 Tie Fei raised his hands over his head as he bowed deeply three times and said gratefully, “Please take care, my lord! I hope we will meet again soon.” After saying that, he closed his eyes, for fear that he might burst into tears. Then, he turned and dove back into the water, disappearing into the vast sea.

 Yunxiao sighed. He had come into contact with many sea people, but he had no good impression of them, and his hands were stained with the blood of countless sea people. It was the first time he had become so close to a sea clan.

 Duan Yue suddenly laughed and said, “Are you reluctant to part with them? Well, now that I look at you again, I find that you do look like those fish-heads. Why don’t you just stay and marry them? I can assure you that they will let you choose the most beautiful fish-heads in their clan, and perhaps you will evolve into exactly the same as them in a few hundred years. Haha!”

 Yunxiao stared at him scornfully and said in a cold voice, “What else do you know besides seeking pleasure through mental masturbation?”

 “YOU!” The sharp retort choked Duan Yue. ‘I’m making a fool out of myself again by provoking this lad!’ he scolded himself in his heart. Since he met Yunxiao, he never succeeded in mocking the latter. But, not only did he not learn his lesson, he also kept doing it repeatedly.

 Frustrated, he turned and sat cross-legged down to meditate.

 In the past, no matter what method he used or what cultivation technique he practiced, he could never increase his energy. However, after using the technique Yunxiao taught him, although his body was still sealed most of the time, he could clearly sense that his energy was growing steadily. Once the seal was completely removed, his cultivation base would definitely be improved by leaps and bounds.

 Looking at his back, Yunxiao was amused. “There seem to be many low-level demon beasts and sea beasts on this island. Oh, the strongest one is actually a fourth-tier demon beast. Hey, if you are upset, you can find them and vent your air.”

 Duan Yue turned and glared at Yunxiao, before vanishing from where he was in the next instant.

 Yunxiao smiled and held up his hands. A light emerged between them, and a tiny sapling could be seen floating there, surrounded by streams of colorful light and looking full of energy.

 “Hehe! I really have the impulse to swallow it now. Such a magical Spirit Qi…If I eat it, my cultivation base can be increased by at least three tiers.” Yunxiao swallowed his saliva as he put the sapling back into his storage ring with a flip of his hand. “I must resist the impulse! No amount of Spirit Qi can compare with the wisp of Great Primal Qi!”

 The sapling was the Kunwu Divine Tree. Normally, no living things could survive in a storage mystic artifact. But, the tree spirit told him that it could be put in any storage mystic artifact, only that it could not grow when inside. Yunxiao carefully tested that and found it to be true, and he could not help but marvel at its magical ability. Among all precious plants and minerals, this Kunwu Divine Tree should be one of the very top existences.

 Suddenly, the seawater in front of him exploded, from which came floating up a group of Firefish people. Stepping on bubbles, they flew up and landed on the island. Their leader was Tie Fei. While smiling, he said, “Greetings, my lord. We almost forget to return my lord’s treasure.”

 Meanwhile, the seawater gradually parted as numerous Firefish people pulled the Tigerking chariot out of the water. Before long, a huge Tigerking chariot hovered in front of Yunxiao.

 Yunxiao laughed. “I’m glad you remembered.”

 “Hehe!” Tie Fei smiled embarrassingly before diving back into the water with his people and disappearing.

 As soon as Yunxiao swept the chariot with his divine sense, his expression changed. And when he leaped onto the chariot, his mouth grew wide enough to fit a whole watermelon.

 Numerous purple Primordial Crystals and various undersea treasures filled the entire chariot. Although the Spirit Qi exuding from them was not as astonishing as that of the Kunwu Divine Tree, it was also almost corporeal, nourishing every pore on his body. He felt extremely comfortable and pleasant just by standing there and breathing.

 “These fellows…” Yunxiao was moved as he said, “I really regret sacrificing the other two chariots now. Otherwise, it would be nice to let them confiscate them together.”

 He simply sorted out the treasures and put them all into his ring before throwing out a few incantation seals and putting away the chariot as well. After that, he went back to the beach.

 From time to time, the roar of demon beasts could be heard on the island, but they quickly quieted down. As the whole island was under Yunxiao’s divine sense, he knew that the strongest demon beast was just a fourth-tier one, who was no match for Duan Yue.

 Suddenly, he had a strange feeling. He looked up toward the vast expanse of sea and saw the air over the water begin to twist slightly, becoming somewhat blurry. “Rainbow fog!” he shouted in great joy.

 Meanwhile, Duan Yue appeared beside Yunxiao, looking excitedly into the distance as well. He smelled of blood, and it seemed that he had a good catch. However, he missed the moment when Tie Fei brought treasures. Otherwise, he would definitely ask Yunxiao to share them with him, and he would get at least some of the treasures.

 “We can finally go back!” Duan Yue’s face beamed. Although the voyage was extremely dangerous, the gains were unusually great. He not only broke through and became a two-stars Martial Emperor, but also found the way to remove the seal on him. Now, he could not wait to get back.
