Chapter 4914: I Still Have to Leave!

Seeing this, the mage was dumbfounded, and so were Xiao Xuan's parents; they were completely dumbfounded.

"You… how are you so powerful?!" the mage said in disbelief, as if he had seen a ghost.

Xiao Xuan's parents were the same; they felt they must have been seeing things.

Was this their child?!

How had their own child become so powerful?!

How did they not know about this?!

"Heh… powerful, am I?" Xiao Xuan sneered. Ignoring the wailing strongmen all around, he walked straight toward the mage.

The mage's expression changed drastically. He knew his opponent was not simple and that he was certainly no match for him.

Therefore, the mage turned and ran, intending to escape first.

However, Xiao Xuan was incredibly fast; how could the mage possibly get away?!

In the blink of an eye, Xiao Xuan arrived in front of the mage.

"You… Xiao Tiezhu, don't! It's a misunderstanding! A misunderstanding!" the mage said urgently.

"A misunderstanding? What kind of misunderstanding?" Xiao Xuan snorted coldly.

"I… it was my greed! I wanted to Cultivate! When I saw your Cultivation Technique, I wanted to claim it as my own! I know I was wrong!" the mage pleaded pitifully.

Seeing that Xiao Xuan remained unmoved, the mage simply knelt and kowtowed, begging for Xiao Xuan's forgiveness.

"Tiezhu! I was wrong… Xiao Tiezhu! I know I was wrong! No… Grandpa Xiao! Please forgive me!"

Seeing this, Xiao Xuan softened, but he still didn't relent.

Seeing this, the mage looked at Xiao Xuan's parents and kowtowed frantically: "I was wrong! I know I was wrong! Please forgive me… Look! I just tied you up! But I didn't hurt you! I even served you good food and drink! I know I was wrong! Please give me a chance!"

Upon hearing this, the hearts of Xiao Xuan's parents also softened.

It was true.

The mage had tied them up, but he hadn't tortured them.

He had only used them as bait, hoping to lure Xiao Xuan into a trap.

"Tiezhu, this matter… how about we just let it go," Xiao Xuan's father said.

"That's right, Tiezhu… it's enough," Xiao Xuan's mother said.

Hearing this, Xiao Xuan's heart also softened.

The mage was indeed guilty, but not to the point of death…

"You… do you really know you were wrong?!" Xiao Xuan asked in a deep voice.

"I know! I know I was wrong! I really know I was wrong!" the mage nodded repeatedly.

"Fine… alright then." Xiao Xuan hesitated for a moment, then sighed: "You only have this one chance. If you dare to provoke me again, I will kill you!"

Hearing this, the mage nodded repeatedly and kowtowed desperately to Xiao Xuan, fearing that Xiao Xuan would change his mind.

Xiao Xuan snorted coldly and left with his parents…

Soon, Xiao Xuan brought his parents back home.

There was no need for words; Xiao Xuan's parents also knew that their son was normal, that he hadn't been bewitched by a female ghost, but had received enlightenment from an Immortal.

Otherwise, why would the mage covet the yellow paper on their son?!

"Father, Mother… Tiezhu has returned late." Xiao Xuan sighed, feeling a pang of sadness in his heart.

"It's good that you're back, as long as you're safe," Xiao Xuan's father smiled.

"Tiezhu, now that you're back, you won't be leaving again, right?!" Xiao Xuan's mother said.

Xiao Xuan hesitated for a moment, then shook his head: "No… I still have to leave!"

"Why?!"

"Tiezhu, your parents believe in you, don't go!"

"It's not that; home isn't suitable for Cultivation. I've gotten used to being outside. Don't worry, I will come back to see you often," Xiao Xuan smiled.

Hearing this, Xiao Xuan's parents looked at each other and did not try to stop him again.

Before Xiao Xuan left, he went to see Wang Ergou and told him that he wouldn't be around later, asking him to help look after his family more.

Wang Ergou agreed immediately; if it weren't for Xiao Xuan, he would already be dead…

Xiao Xuan told Wang Ergou that if anything happened to his family later, he should go up the mountain to find him…

Wang Ergou agreed, telling Xiao Xuan not to worry and that he would handle things properly.

Then, Xiao Xuan left and went back into the mountains to Cultivate.

Ye Miaoyin saw all of this clearly.

She understood her child's Heart-Nature very well, but it was still not enough; it was lacking far too much.

Ye Miaoyin shook her head and smiled bitterly. Now, she finally understood why Xiao Fan had arranged so many arduous trials.
