Great River Secret Realm.
Revisiting an old place, the protagonist stood by the roaring river, looking at the distant, empty valley, suddenly feeling as if a lifetime had passed.
The last time he was here, the protagonist was hunted like a stray dog.
Returning now, everything had changed.
The remnants of the Heaven-Facing Sect, who previously occupied this place, were pardoned and are now taking revenge everywhere. At least half of the recent headless murder cases in the Cultivation Realm were their doing.
The protagonist thought of the Dragon Race's little princess, Xu Yue'Er.
Back in the Secret Realm, Xu Yue'Er was bathing, and the protagonist and Zhao Yi fell from the mountain. Xu Yue'Er wanted the protagonist to marry her, almost killing Zhao Yi with a single sword strike.
This was the only time the protagonist beat Zhao Yi.
Though he verbally rejected Xu Yue'Er back then, he felt quite pleased inside.
