After leaving the range of Wanshan, Xia Liu resumed his identity as a Cultivator.
However, he did not reveal his entire cultivation level.
Instead, he appeared at the tenth level of Qi Cultivation, riding on a middle-grade Spirit Sword.
This was a sword he casually picked up at Dao Guang Auction House.
It was used for long-distance travel.
The brilliance of the Flowing Fire Sword was too dazzling.
If discovered by a powerful cultivator, they might attempt to snatch it.
So, keeping a low profile was the way to go.
After a few days, Xia Liu returned to Thousand Mechanisms City.
Everything seemed the same as when he left.
The main street of Thousand Mechanisms City was still crowded with people.
Among them were Martial Artists, ordinary people, and cultivators.
However, none of them revealed any aura of pressure.
Apparently, they were all aware of the rules in Thousand Mechanisms City.
After wandering around for a while, Xia Liu appeared in front of a towering gate.
A massive plaque hung above the entrance.
City Lord's Mansion!
Xia Liu had mentioned that he would come to the City Lord's Mansion.
Half a month had passed, and he was unsure how Xue Ao had arranged for the disciples of the Beast Taming Sect.
He didn't know if they had adapted to Thousand Mechanisms City.
Just as the guard cultivators were about to stop Xia Liu, suddenly, a beam of light darted out from within the gate.
"Daoist Fellow Xia, it's been a long time!"
"Senior Mo, you coming out personally to greet me, this step felt a bit painful."
Noticing the stunned expressions of the two guards, Xia Liu said with some embarrassment.
"Haha, your abilities are above mine, and your alchemical talents far surpass mine. If I weren't afraid of offending you by calling you Senior, I would have."
"Hehe, Senior Mo, stop joking, I'll just accompany you inside."
Having traveled continuously for several days, Xia Liu wanted to find a beautiful place to rest for a bit.
The City Lord's Mansion was undoubtedly the best choice.
In the rear garden, within the lakeside Sunshade Pavilion, Mo Wentian personally poured tea for Xia Liu, while the surrounding lotus flowers emitted a faint fragrance.
It was hard to tell if the scent was from the flowers or the tea.
"Daoist Fellow Xia, have you fully recovered?"
Mo Wentian was still worried about Xia Liu.
After all, news of the destruction of the Beast Taming Sect had spread throughout the Heavenly Realm.
He had attended several meetings for discussion.
The purpose was to figure out how to guard against this unknown powerful cultivator.
After all, the destruction of the Beast Taming Sect had instilled tremendous fear in all the major forces of the southeast regions.
Causing them to start thinking irrationally.
Very few people were in the know.
Mo Wentian and Xue Ao were speechless regarding these meetings.
People minded their own business, yet this group fussed over so much.
Moreover, if news that Xia Liu destroyed the Beast Taming Sect got out, it was uncertain how many would be alerted.
"Thank you for your concern, I've completely recovered."
"That's good, that's good. Recently, the topics being discussed across the realm are all about you. If your identity were exposed, you might become famous throughout the Kunwu Realm instantly."
Mo Wentian joked mischievously.
"That won't be necessary, such false titles worn on me would only hinder my path forward."
Xia Liu shook his head repeatedly; he wasn't looking to become a celebrity in the Kunwu Realm.
Because this world was still very mysterious, even more so than Huaxia.
You never knew what might happen the next moment.
"True, I somewhat understand your ways now. My evaluation of you is this!"
Mo Wentian gave a thumbs-up, everything was understood without words.
"You're too kind; Senior Mo, could you take me to see where the disciples of the Beast Taming Sect reside?"
At this, Xia Liu smiled bitterly.
He had no choice; the Beast Taming Sect had to become wasteland, and what he had promised, he must fulfill.
"Sure, Brother Xue is definitely over there; I'll take you to see."
Mo Wentian couldn't refuse.
Then he took Xia Liu to the place where the disciples of the Beast Taming Sect were now staying.
It was a rather remote place, over fifty miles away from the City Lord's Mansion.
Surrounded by areas where only ordinary people lived.
And the large courtyard where the disciples of the Beast Taming Sect were residing had been rented by Xue Ao.
Accommodating these disciples in an area for ordinary people was most appropriate.
As for plans to deal with any rebellion from the disciples of the Beast Taming Sect, he had already thought of them.
But those were matters for later; at least for the next thirty years, this place would be safe and sound.
Xia Liu did not disturb these disciples.
No matter what, he had left a knot in the hearts of these disciples.
Leaving them homeless, crippling the cultivation of their Elders, killing the Sect Master.
Such events ensured that many would remember Xia Liu for a lifetime.
Upon arriving in Thousand Mechanisms City, the disciples of the Beast Taming Sect had given up the Beast Taming Technique and switched to practicing the pure Cultivator's Spell.
Transitioning did affect their cultivation, but not to a debilitating extent.
After watching for a while, Xia Liu left.
His time was incredibly valuable now; it had been more than half a year since he left, and he hadn't returned.
Although he was anxious, he wasn't planning to return just like that.
As a grade four Alchemist, if he didn't prepare a grand gift, he wouldn't have the face to return and see the ladies.
Dao Guang Auction House, a familiar yet strange place.
As Xia Liu stepped through the entrance of the fourth floor.
At Jade Moon Lake, Protector Zhan appeared voluntarily, then cupped his hands towards the charming figure under the pavilion and said, "Miss, if I sensed correctly, it should be Xia Liu coming!"
"Xia Liu!"
Hearing this name, Qingdie trembled all over but quickly regained her composure.
Before long, Xia Liu in white robes elegantly appeared, fanning his folding fan.
"Miss, long time no see."
"Long time no see, Senior Xia."
Before Xia Liu's arrival, Qingdie had prepared many words.
She thought she might never see Xia Liu again in her life, yet unexpectedly, he came so suddenly today.
"Not bad, you'll likely advance within ten days."
Observing Qingdie closely, Xia Liu praised.
"Haha, compared to Senior Xia, my cultivation is really lacking."
"Actually, you're quite blessed, managing such a large auction house and being so beautiful; even the most accomplished male cultivator would try to win your favor."
"Senior Xia, should I take that as you flirting with me?"
Qingdie pondered and continued, "Or are you speaking of yourself, Senior Xia?"
"Heroes cannot resist beauty, and I'm no different, but I wouldn't dare destroy you."
"Hehe, I know, Senior Xia, in the Huaxia Realm, you have countless beauties accompanying you."
With a bitter smile, bitterness welled up inside Qingdie, and she decided to completely let go.
"I am very fortunate to have met them in my lifetime."
When Xia Liu spoke of them, he naturally meant the ladies.
"By the way, Miss, I'm preparing to go back, and before that, I want to purchase some materials from you to refine pills."
"Ah? You're going back to the Huaxia Realm?"
"Yes, I've been out too long, I need to return and have a look."
"I understand..."
Qingdie nodded, then muttered softly, they are truly lucky to be your women...
