While Jiang Nan was embarking on the path of cultivation, and Jiang Lu was confronting a mystical old man, who scared the crap out of him. Jiang Fei was finally coming to his senses and regaining consciousness.
His limbs were fused to the ground, and his thoughts were incredibly slow. He almost thought he had ended up in the afterlife when his eyes could not open. Slowly, he regained his energy.
As he opened his eyes slowly, his eyelids fluttered rapidly to adjust to what just happened, as soon as he fully opened his eyes. He saw a handsome man, with long brown hair and porcelain skin, dressed in a traditional cultivator’s white robe.
He was sitting in an upright sitting position with his eyes closed, head tilted towards the sky.
The weirdest part about the man is that he looked no older than 23 years old, yet gave off an immensely refined and graceful aura.
What a good-looking man, I wish I had his charisma. Wait, where am I? Did Ling-er not send me into an illusion, but I like women? Why is he a good-looking man? Wait, am I…
His thoughts were quickly interrupted by the man's eyelids opening,revealing his blue eyes. The man quickly locked eyes with Jiang Fei, before speaking.
“Kid, why are you in my secret realm? Did you know this is the private property of the Void sect? No matter, you have long lost your chance at redemption.”
Jiang Fei’s mind started racing, his heart palpitated at a faster rate than ever before. What Did I do wrong? Did Ling-er send me to the wrong coordinates? If I explain it to him in a polite manner, he will probably understand.
Jiang Fei instantly forced his body to prostrate to the man, his lips were practically kissing the dirt.
“Great sir, I am sorry if I offended you. I think a teleportation array of mine malfunctioned and I was sent to the wrong location. Please forgive me, I difent means ith.” While Jiang Fei tried to maintain his eloquence, his lips were too close to the dirt and quite a bit of dirt got in his mouth.
The surroundings quickly became silent, the temperature seemed to drop to sub zero degrees. Jiang Fei was filled with trepidation. He thought maybe the immortal was displeased with his head being too high, so he pushed his head further into the ground.
Did I stumble into something I was not meant to? Oh my god, I am actually going to die here. If I make it back though, that spirit is going to the afterlife.
Just then, a familiar sound resounded from the direction the man was. It was a sound Jiang Nan often made when Jiang Lu did something stupid. The man was stifling his laughter.
Confused, Jiang Fei immediately raised his head to stare at the man. His eyebrows furrowed deeply, his eyes opened wide. The man instantly felt Jiang Fei’s gaze land upon him and let his laughter burst out.
“Pfft, HAHAHAHA! No way you bought that. Oh you are so scared.” The man’s elegant temperament was instantly betrayed by his nearly obnoxious laughter,saved only by his dashingly good looks.

“I am just kidding, kid. I am a retainer of the Jiang Family . My daoist title is Void Altering King, and my secular name is Feng Jinyang. I am of the Intent Immortal Transcendence realm. I was a rather famous cultivator back in my day, but I chose to remain in this ascension world to guard the foundation of the family.” Feng Jinyang said calmly while wiping the tears from the corner of his eyes.
Hearing that Jiang Fei quickly stood up. “So… you aren’t going to kill me? In that case, my name is Jiang Fei and it's nice to meet you” Jiang Fei said tentatively, and promptly started to scrub his teeth using his fingers to remove any dirt in between them.
“What are you doing… How can the distinguished Young master of the revered Jiang Family be so utterly uncouth. Next you are going to tell me you and your parents are both farmers, with no more than 2 silver coins to your name.” Feng Jinyang quickly raised his hands after mocking Jiang Fei to materialise a strand of Qi into the form of a hand to grasp onto Jiang Fei’s arm and return it to his side.
“Uhhh, funny story but, I am a farmer and so are my parents. Also, this might be worse but we are all mortals with no cultivation. In fact I didn’t know we ever had cultivators in our family until 3 days ago.” Jiang Fei said embarrassedly, his esteem had taken a large hit when he realised how disgraceful and crude his actions were.
Indeed, no cultivator would ever be seen doing something so vulgar. Most cultivators based their Dao hearts on their pride and if it took a hit it would greatly weaken them. Well, for most of them it was just a matter of looking respectable in order to woo others.
“I knew you were a mortal, but the fact that we do not have any cultivators other than those in the secret realm is frankly worrying. No matter, although those of the immortal realm typically do not act due to a tacit agreement to let the world be run by youngsters. I can always protect the family if ever needed.” Feng JinYang proudly said while thumping his chest.
“Well, I think we have already gotten quite close and I have already had enough fun with my jokes. So if you do not mind, I am going to bring you to my abode where I can start mentoring you in cultivation.” Feng Jinyang said in a serious tone.
Hearing the sudden change in the senior’s tone, Jiang Fei’s body unknowingly tensed up and his whole body straightened up like a pillar. Then, he eagerly nodded his head.
This is what he has been waiting for for the past 2 days. He was about to finally embark on his long awaited path of cultivation.
Then, he stood up and lifted Jiang Fei into the air using his telekinesis. Before Jiang Fei could react, Feng Jinyang quickly started flying at a speed Jiang Fei had only seen horses achieve.
The reason Feng Jinyang did not go as fast as he did when he was getting to Jiang Fei’s side is because Jiang Fei’s mortal body would not be able to handle such speeds. So, he graciously slowed down to what he felt to be an insect’s crawling pace.
However, that did not do much for Jiang Fei. The speed still caused Jiang Fei to feel incredibly nauseous, the wind constantly blew into his eyes, forcing him to close them. He added one more thing to be grateful for after he realised that there were no birds in the sky.
After 2 minutes, he could take it anymore and decided to voice his issues to Feng JinYang.
“Woah slow down Senior Feng! I have never been off the ground before!” Jiang Fei’s voice trembled as he desperately begged this newly met cultivator to slow down before he shat his pants out of fear.
“Calm down kid, I am sure you have jumped before. This is just a longer jump, also if you soil yourself. You will immediately be banned from this secret realm, and I greatly advise you to hold it in.” Feng Jinyang said slightly shocked that Jiang Fei was still scared even though they were going so slow.
Hearing this, Jiang Fei quickly closed his eyes and squeezed his buttcheeks together and started to direct all his focus to holding his shit in.
After around 45 minutes, the duo finally landed. Much to the dismay of both of them.
Upon feeling the ground beneath his feet return, Jiang Fei first opened his right eye to check what happened since the chatty seemingly chatty senior was quiet the whole trip.
That is when he hit him, his jaw quickly dropped and both eyes were now opened wide. Standing in front of him was the most spectacular and beautiful house, no if he called this a house what would his house be?
This was a piece of art! A priceless piece of work that sprung out straight from the world’s finest painting of a divine being’s palace!
The palace had gorgeous ivory white marble walls, with two tall towers adjoined at the sides looming over the main palace, the palace was topped with a ceiling made of some golden metal which gave all reflected light a pink hue.
“So, this is your ‘house’? Why didn’t you tell me you lived in a palace?” Jiang Fei said while he feigned a betrayed look on his face.
“Well, it is grand to a farmer like you I guess. However, compared to the Jiang Family I knew this much is absolutely nothing. Your ancestors had a residence as large as an entire city, the weirdest part is that since the clan has a tradition of only taking in 1 wife the residence was needlessly big.” Feng JinYang said with an expression that seemed to yearn to go back to those times.
“I guess there were the guards,retainers and house-help. Even still, there were barely over 25000 people living there even if we accounted for their families. Enough gawking and chatter boy, quickly enter my house and let us get started.”
Then the duo started to briskly walk into the palace.
