Although there's a restriction in body cultivation, it doesn't mean that the existence of physique doesn't exist. Because physique is just a special characteristic of someone and not necessarily would allow them to cultivate the body. The only thing they could do is cultivate the physique and the ability brought by it but not the body itself.

However, the restriction that restricts body and soul cultivation still affects some rules of this world, that includes the Physique, it became so rare that its existence is almost non-existence. If not for the restriction that binds the cultivation in this world, the existence of physique, although rare, it would not be to the point of being non-existence.

In the training ground.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes!"

"Riana, please consider your position. How would your father react if he learned this?" Lian persuaded her.

Riana turned her head towards Lian, her resolute eyes met Lian's.

"Young Miss, I have already decided."

"Then from now on, you will be the personal maid of Lian." Azrael declared.

"Thank you." Riana slightly bowed.

Lian could only sighed.

"Of course, since you are already her personal maid, I wouldn't mind training you too."

"Really?" Riana was elated.

"Yeah."

At this moment, Tihana who was silent in a corner gripped her hands and stepped forward.

"M-Me too. I want you to train me to be s-strong enough to protect my two friends."

Riana's eyes widened, she looked at Tihana incredibly, this is the first time Tihana called her a friend. Most of the time Tihana would look at her warily as if a prey guarding herself against her natural predator. But just now Tihana called her a 'friend', her eyes couldn't help but moist.

"Sure." Azrael confidently agreed.

He then touched his chin then pointed at Tihana, "Then let's start with you. Bring a paintbrush and a canvas."

"Huh?" Tihana confusedly responded.

"The message you sent. Is it true?" a middle-aged man with a calm and comforting aura asked Maxwell. He is the father of Tihana, Hubert Sallow.

"Yes."

"Then let us see our daughter and also the man that saved our daughter." a man with oppressive said. He is none other than Richard.

"Of course, I could guide you to them, however, they are currently in the training ground. It seems the incident made them more determined to become strong." Maxwell paused and sighed, "and the one training them is none other than the man that saved them and us, young Master Azrael. To be honest, I am scared of him, he is powerful enough to kill a Qi Core Realm Cultivator, but the thing that scares me is his eyes that seem capable of seeing everything. Having said that, you guys still want to meet him?"

"What a stupid question." Richard scoffed. "As a father, how can I not meet and thank the man that saved my daughter."

"Yes, he is right."

"I would inform him, but now, I would rather not disturb their training session lest I accidentally offend Young Master Azrael." After the incident and witnessing the power of Azrael, Maxwell became more respectful towards Azrael. At first, he considered calling Azrael Senior, but gave up the idea. Looking at the youthful appearance of Azrael he decided to call him 'Young Master'.

"Here. I already brought a paintbrush and canvas."

"What do you think about these two items?"

"I-I think they are for painting?" Tihana answered unconfidently.

Azrael chuckled.

"Am I-I not correct?"

"No, you are correct, they are indeed used for painting, but do you think that they serves their purpose for only that? Do you believe that these two items can calm storms, protect your loved one and vanquish your enemy?"

"Can it really be done?"

"Then how about fire? Did humans know it could be used as a weapon at first? No, they used it for cooking, but look at now, techniques based on fire exist. Same with the paintbrush and canvas. They are use for art, however, do not forget that they are also lethal weapons that are as sharp as swords. Do you trust me?"

"Yes!" Tihana, for the first time, answered him with confidence.

"Okay, start by painting."

"But I don't have any paint."

"Who said you need paint to paint?"

After uttering those words, he left Tihana and walked toward Riana. He completely ignored the troubled Tihana .

"Are you sure you want to leave her?"

"Think about yourself before thinking about her. I'll teach you about spearmanship. Bring a spear and practice the basics indicated in this book." He said and threw a book to Riana which contained the basics of spearmanship.

Azrael then walked towards Lian.

"As for you, all you need is to properly cultivate your physique and at the same time cultivate a technique that supplements it."

He then waved his hand, and a ball of light formed and plunged into Lian's head.

"That ball of light contains basic knowledge about your physique. Study it first. I have a business to attend to. Tomorrow, I will come and visit you guys again."

"H-hmm, c-can I have your time later? I would like to talk to you." Lian meekly said.

Azrael only smiled and said, "Sure."

"I would like to stay here for a while." Julius stated.

"Ohh, it looks like you have taken to liking this place." Azrael said, "Do you know that your sister said the same thing to me when I was about to relieve her from her duty as Lian's maid?"

"So even her."

"I wonder how your father will react when he learns his son and daughter chose to stay as someone's servant."

"Don't worry I will convince and notify him that this is my own will."

"So what did you find in this place?"

"As I expected, there's nothing I can hide from you, sigh." Julius paused for a moment before opening his mouth again, "I feel like by staying here I will be able to hone myself, I also want to use this opportunity to break through to Qi Refining Realm."

"Is that so?" saying this Azrael turned and left Julius.

While walking, he reminisces about his time in the Dream World.

***

There was a certain Young Master from one of the powerful families in the Dream World's Divine Realm. He was born a genius and no one in his generation was capable of suppressing his rise. He was praised by all, however, not being able to meet his equal in his generation, he grew up arrogant. One day, with his arrogance, he unwittingly offended someone he shouldn't offend. That incident resulted in him being crippled. His family abandoned him to avoid calamity. He was once a genius and praised by all until he became crippled and mocked by the others.

With nowhere to go, he was forced to settle in a mortal universe. With the twist of fate, he met someone there. He was hired as a gardener. As years went by, he became a diligent and honest gardener. One day, he became enlightened, he regained his power and his rise became inevitable. Although he regained his power, he chose to stay with his master. He even believed that the reason why he achieved enlightenment was due to his master's secret guidance. His strength further rose, and his name resounded again. The family that disowned him begged in front of him, asking him to return to the family. However, he ignored all the pleas and his loyalty to his master stayed the same, for he is gardener of his Master's garden.

Azrael sighed and cleared his mind.
