Xu Xiaolan continued to look at Xiao Chous bulb-like eyes, ugly nose, and crooked mouth until her eyes began to water a little.

An idea suddenly occurred to her.

Her storage ring flashed, and a mask constructed from Divine Azure Rock appeared in her hand.

This mask was called the Azure Battle Arhat Mask. It had an intricate design and would naturally absorb the Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth. When one put on the mask, it would instantly release the stored Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth, thereby temporarily boosting ones combat strength. It was a high-rank spirit tool, but most importantly, it would make one look a lot more dashing

Xiao Chou finally accepted Xu Xiaolans gift and grasped the mask with trembling hands.

This gift was not only extremely precious but also something that suited him extremely well!

Xu Xiaolan was extremely sincere in the gifts that she gave out. All of them were items of great value and also had great practical uses, for which An Lin and the others were greatly thankful.

However, despite this, Xu Xiaolan still had the nagging feeling that she was forgetting something.

She furrowed her brows lightly. I feel like Im forgetting someone

An Lin immediately replied, Xiao Chou, Da Bai, and I have all received our gifts, who else would there be? Dont think too much, lets have a celebratory feast!

Xu Xiaolan couldnt think of anything in the end and could only relinquish the train of thought with a smile and a nod before flying alongside An Lin to the prefectural city of the Heavenly River State.

Prefectural city of the Heavenly River State, Heavenly Treasure Restaurant.

They ate a truly grand meal there, spending a total of sixty thousand spirit stones on that one meal alone.

The main ingredients presented in this feast were all rare culinary ingredients, all of which were exotic plants and minerals, as well as rare mutant beasts prepared painstakingly by top-grade immortal chefs. Not only were the dishes all extremely delicious, but they were also brimming with energy, presenting a peerlessly tasty and nutritious combo.

Even the leaders of large Immortal Sects didnt dare to eat to their hearts content at the Heavenly Treasures Restaurant. After all, all the dishes there were made from extremely expensive ingredients! However, An Lin and the others completely broke the mold by ordering a whole table of delicacies before wolfing all the dishes like a pack of starving animals. After finishing their first table of dishes, they ordered another tables worth Their extreme extravagance put all the other tycoons dining in the Heavenly Treasures Restaurant to shame. Never had they seen anyone so gluttonous nor anyone so liberal with money.

The massive feast had not only wiped away their fatigue from exploring the dragon tomb, but they were also filled to the brim with endless amounts of energy.

Thus, the four of them decided to make their way back to the Heavenly Court at a leisure pace in order to aid their digestion.

Two days later, The United University of Cultivation held their annual review.

The second-year students received collective praise for their efforts in combating the Ant Tribe. On top of that, the students and teachers who participated in the mission to kill the Ant Queen all received rich rewards, but An Lin didnt really care much about that.

After that, it was time for the graduation ceremony. Wang Xuanzhan took the stage to present a speech as the representative for all the graduates.

An Lin looked up at the handsome, domineering man on stage, feeling a little bit emotional. Time had passed by so quickly, and before he knew it, it was already time for Wang Xuanzhan to graduate.

Wang Xuanzhan and An Lin could be considered as friends. Theirs was a relationship that was forged during the Dao Exchange Conference of the Four Powers. An Lin was quite saddened to see the departure of such a reliable coattail which he could grab onto.

At the conclusion of his speech, Wang Xuanzhan came specially to bid farewell to An Lin.

The two of them strolled side by side in the schoolyard, attracting much attention from the students around the area. After all, one of them held first place on the universitys Heaven Roll, while the other was a legendary figure in the school. Both of them were extremely renowned in their own right.

Senior Wang, are you really going to the Wind Plain State? Ive heard that the Wind Plain State is in a state of constant warfare, it must be quite dangerous there. An Lin couldnt help but be a little concerned after he heard of Wang Xuanzhans decision to join the Wind Plain State branch of the Heavenly Courts execution department.

The Wind Plain State directly neighbored the Holy Glacial Lands, so wars were a regular occurrence there. Although their enemies were beautiful snow maidens, they were definitely not to be looked down upon. They were all extremely powerful warriors stronger than even the Blood Tribe of the Southwest region. The Wind Plain State was the place where wars most frequently broke out in the whole of the Kingdom of the Nine States, making it one of the most dangerous branches in the Heavenly Courts execution department.

A free-spirited smile appeared on Wang Xuanzhans face. I have never been afraid of a battle in my life. I made the decision to go to the Wind Plain State precisely because of its state of constant warfare. It is only through battles that I can constantly improve myself!

He paused for a short while before speaking again, On top of that guess who I met there?

An Lin blinked his eyes. Chen Chen?

Wang Xuanzhans expression shifted drastically. Huh? How did you know?

Who else can pique your interest like An Lin looked at Wang Xuanhan with a hint of a smile on his face, alongside a knowing expression.

Wang Xuanzhan coughed a little sheepishly. Since the day I was born, Ive been in countless battles, but there are only two that remain most poignant in my memory.

In the battle with you, I lost, but I have no regrets. After all, you stabbed a huge crack into the very ground itself with just one finger. There was no way I could have survived that attack.

But in my battle with Chen Chen, he didnt even move a single finger, but his aura had already bested mine, forcing me into submission before the battle had even begun. Running before a battle remains the worst humiliation I have ever suffered I have to find him and fight him in a real battle. Even if I lose, I have to know exactly how I lost!

An Lin was a little intrigued by his words. Did you battle Chen Chen when you met him last time in the Holy Glacial Lands?

Wang Xuanzhan shook his head. He ran away before we had a chance to battle.

An Lin:

However, before he ran away, he told me to pass a message on to you, Wang Xuanzhan continued.

Pass a message on to me? An Lins eyes widened in surprise.

Wang Xuanzhan nodded with a peculiar expression. He said that not only has he mastered the Finger of the Heavenly Dao, he has also mastered the Fist of the Heavenly Dao, the Leg of the Heavenly Dao, and the Sword of the Heavenly Dao and that if you would like to learn from him, he can teach you if you go find him in the Holy Glacial Lands

An Lin:

Excuse me?

An Lin did not know how to express his emotions at this point in time.

Leg of the Heavenly Dao? Why not invent an A*s of the Heavenly Dao? What kind of bullsh*t is this?

Although the techniques did sound pretty awesome, a chill would run down his spine every time he thought of the consequential self-detonation that would result from using the Finger of the Heavenly Dao, making him naturally want to reject the offer.

Why did Chen Chen say that he could teach him

How was Chen Chen not baffled at the fact that An Lin was able to learn such a powerful technique so easily? There had to be some sort of secret involved. Despite his curiosity, An Lin did not try to unveil these secrets. He had a nagging feeling that any efforts to do so would result in danger.

Hmm just forget about it for now.

An Lin shook his head to dispel his confusion.

His top priority right now was to improve his own strength. With sufficient strength, any problem could be resolved. Once he was powerful enough, stuff like the Fist of the Heavenly Dao, Leg of the Heavenly Dao, or whatever wouldnt matter. Heck, he could tell the very heavens to go and get f*cked if he was powerful enough!

After bidding farewell to Wang Xuanzhan, An Lin returned to his living quarters and swallowed a vital energy pill before commencing his cultivation.

The vital energy pill was a ninth-grade spirit pill, the consumption of which drastically increased the speed at which he could temper his core through meditation.

Although the pills were quite expensive and the effect only lasted two days, it didnt matter because he was filthy rich.

A filthy rich tycoon like him had to have his own cultivation methods, this was something that An Lin strongly believed in.

Two days later, An Lin came out of seclusion.

Taking advantage of the free time he had during this holiday period, he decided to visit Su Qianyun.

It was finally time to repay the debt he owed to Change!
