Chapter 45: Returning to the Spirit Domain

Just like that, Su Yu did not reveal himself, choosing instead to observe their every move from the shadows.

At this moment, two people from the Jiang Family arrived in the village to investigate, and before long, they found Jiang Ming's family.

The two Jiang Family members had Jiang Ming place his hand on a crystal ball. Instantly, the crystal ball emitted a glow, and expressions of excitement immediately appeared on their faces.

They then explained their purpose to Jiang Ming's family.

"We are from the Spirit Domain. Our Jiang Family is a prominent power in the Spirit Domain, and you carry the Bloodline of our Jiang Family."

"As for what the Spirit Domain is, I assume you aren't aware, but you only need to know that the Spirit Domain stands above your other regions, such as your Southern Domain."

"The strongest in your Southern Domain on the surface should be the Soul Transformation Stage, but the two of us have already surpassed the Soul Transformation Stage and reached the Refining Void Stage."

"And our cultivation level is nothing much in the Jiang Family, while our Old Ancestor is an even more incredible existence."

"Therefore, returning to the Spirit Domain will provide you with a better future."

"The Old Ancestor knew that someone with Innate talent had been born into the Jiang Family, so he sent us to find you."

"And you, Jiang Ming, are the person we were looking for."

"You possess extremely high talent in the Dao of the Sword, and as it happens, our Jiang Family is a clan of the Dao of the Sword. If you return to the Jiang Family, you can receive personal guidance from the Old Ancestor."

"Your future is limitless; you might even become an existence that surpasses our Jiang Family's Old Ancestor."

"Our Jiang Family will vigorously cultivate you, for you are the future of the Jiang Family."

"Moreover, your whole family can move to the Spirit Domain to enjoy a better life."

"How about it? Have you thought it over?"

At this, yearning for the Jiang Family in the Spirit Domain already appeared in Jiang Ming's eyes; after all, he wanted to learn the sword.

Jiang Ming turned to look at his parents, and they nodded at him. After all, they had originally planned to send their child to the city to learn.

Besides, people in the city might not necessarily take a liking to their Jiang Ming, so now that there was a better opportunity, they were willing.

Seeing that his parents agreed, Jiang Ming no longer hesitated and said, "Alright, I will go back with you."

"Good, in that case, let's go. The Old Ancestor has been looking forward to meeting you."

At this, Jiang Ming's family left with the people from the Jiang Family.

Only an old wooden house remained in the village. No one knew how far the young man from this village, who used to look at swords with eyes shining with excitement, would grow in the future.

Su Yu had also heard the conversation of the Jiang Family members.

He knew the sequence of events, but he did not step in to stop them; after all, this was not a bad thing for Jiang Ming. He could indeed grow better in the Jiang Family.

Furthermore, he could see that the two people before him were very respectful toward Jiang Ming's family, and he wouldn't go out of his way to cause trouble or intervene.

That would just be asking for trouble, and the Jiang Family's Old Ancestor sounded like someone not to be trifled with.

As they left, Su Yu also returned to the Profound Heaven Sect. He had known from the start that his Bloodline was not simple.

Fortunately, he hadn't interfered too much. If he had brought him to the Profound Heaven Sect back then, he wouldn't have known if it would have been a blessing or a curse for the sect.

Although the Profound Heaven Sect was very powerful in the Southern Domain, in the eyes of others, it was no different from an ant.

It was more practical to return to his small courtyard and slack off. Lying on the hammock, swinging on the swing, fishing, and drinking—this life was truly comfortable.

Meanwhile, on Jiang Ming's side, they had returned to the Jiang Family. They immediately arranged accommodation for Jiang Ming's parents and then brought Jiang Ming to the location of the Old Ancestor.

The Jiang Family Old Ancestor looked at Jiang Ming before him and said, "Good, good, good! I have finally found you. Sword Heart Clarity, it cannot be wrong. You are the future hope of our Jiang Family."

"Are you willing to follow me and take me as your master?"

At this moment, Jiang Ming understood that the person before him was his best choice.

"This Disciple is willing."

Jiang Tianqi laughed heartily and said, "Good, good!"

Returning to Su Yu's side, he was sitting by the river fishing, while Su Ling'er was calling out from the side, "Eat fish, eat fish."

Su Yu looked at Su Ling'er, who was still so innocent and pure.

That's right, Su Ling'er's growth cycle was much longer than that of the Human Race; after all, she was an Innate Spirit, and even now, she still looked like a little brat.

At this moment, Su Yu sensed someone approaching.

"Ling'er, come back for now."

Han Ting came skipping over to Su Yu, seeing that he was fishing again.

"Uncle Yu, you fish here every day. One day, you're going to fish all the fish in this lake dry."

"What's the matter, Tingting? Have you come to show off again?"

"You Little Girl, whenever something happens, you run over to show off how impressive you are."

"The Profound Heaven Sect is practically being turned upside down by you."

"That's not true! Uncle Yu, you're just teasing me."

"Since you aren't here to show off, just say what you need. Do you want to learn the sword or the zither?"

Han Ting saw that her intentions had been exposed.

"That's not it! Can't I come to visit you, Uncle Yu, without any reason?"

"Alright, alright, stop with the nonsense. Tell me, what is it exactly?"

"It's just that I want to learn that Sword Drawing Technique of yours. Teach it to me, will you? That move of yours is simply too cool."

"I went to the Technique Pavilion to check, but that Sword Drawing Technique is completely different from yours; it doesn't compare to yours at all."

Su Yu felt a bit embarrassed. After he had continuously increased his proficiency, this Sword Drawing Technique was no longer comparable to an ordinary one; the two were simply on different levels.

Now, Su Yu's Sword Drawing Technique could basically condense the momentum of heaven and earth and mobilize the power of heaven and earth.

However, with Han Ting's current strength, she could not comprehend this at all.

But he could simplify this Sword Drawing Technique to a level that Han Ting could learn, though the power would certainly not be as great.

However, for Han Ting, it would be more than enough, and Su Yu didn't overthink it.

"Since you want to learn it, Tingting, I will teach you this Sword Drawing Technique."

"But don't give up halfway because it's too tiring."

"I won't, I won't."

Subsequently, Su Yu taught her the simplified version of the Cultivation Technique. Looking at the Sword Drawing Technique before her, Han Ting was so happy she couldn't close her mouth.

"Don't be happy too soon. You must master the foundations of this Sword Drawing Technique first. Just this basic sword drawing movement will be enough to give you a hard time."

"Rest assured, Uncle Yu, this is not a problem for me at all."

"Isn't it just drawing and swinging the sword? How hard can it be?"

Seeing her attitude, Su Yu knew that words were useless; he had to let her experience just how grueling the basics were.

"Alright, since you've decided to learn, from now on, you must come here to study from sunrise until sunset every day. Do you hear me?"

"If you can't hold on for even one day, I won't teach you this Sword Drawing Technique anymore."

Han Ting knew she couldn't be cheeky anymore.

"Understood, Uncle Yu."

"Good, come study here starting tomorrow."

Soon, early the next morning, Han Ting arrived at Su Yu's place.

"Alright, start by practicing the basic movements: draw the sword and swing it. You cannot stop until I tell you to."

Just like that, Han Ting spent the whole day continuously swinging and drawing her sword, only stopping at noon when Su Yu called her to eat.

Only then did Han Ting realize that the pain had just begun.
