C230 seclusion

"You, what are your plans after this?"

Although Xiao Juan did not know what had happened, seeing that Nangong Shi's gaze was fixated on the place where the two little fellows had left from, she guessed that the two little fellows would probably leave for a period of time. Then, he looked towards Nangong Shi and asked.

"Plans? Other than cultivating and staying with my family, what else can I do? Lady Xiao Juan, although I am grateful for the method you have just taught me, I find it difficult to agree to everything you have said. I still have things to do, so I won't keep you company. "Goodbye." Nangong Shi regained his senses, and after he managed to reply with that sentence, he used Spatial Force and disappeared from where he was.

"Forget it, since you are unwilling to go to the Star Region, I will not force you. After all, I have … "Xiao Juan muttered to herself as she saw Nangong Shi hurriedly leave. Her hands subconsciously stroked her belly, then she disappeared from where she stood.

Buzz.

Not long after the two of them left the Falling Flower Palace, a black figure slowly appeared.

"To think that he has a child of the Heaven's Mandate. This matter will become complicated." The black shadow's voice echoed in the surrounding before slowly fading away, as if it had never appeared before.

….

Within Nine Lives Palace.

Just as Nangong Shi walked out from the void, he was noticed by Murong Li and the rest. After that, they all surrounded him and asked him about the two little fellows. When they heard Nangong Shi say that the two little fellows would be leaving, everyone had a tinge of regret on their faces.

"Grandmother, what's wrong with you guys? It seems that you guys are very interested in these two little fellows. " Seeing that, Nangong Shi asked curiously.

"Of course. To be able to get rid of the Monster race so easily, is that not enough to arouse our interest? " Elder Tianyi immediately stroked his beard and said.

"I have no way of knowing the reason for this. When they come back, I'll ask them slowly. However, no matter what, the destruction of the Monster race has achieved our goal. If it's anything else, we can only rely on our future arrangements. " Nangong Shi said.

"That's right. If not for these two little fellows this time, who knows how many more would have died in battle between the human race and the Spiritual Beast Tribes. In addition, the divination also said that the Monster race was nothing more than a tiny barrier before the storm between humans and demons. The fact that humans are able to preserve so much power today will definitely be beneficial to the arrival of the storm. " Murong Li listened and nodded.

"Shi Er, what plans do you have for the future?" Seeing that everyone had finished chatting, Murong Xue stood up and asked.

"Mother, Grandma and Elder Tianyi also said that just now. Although the Monster race was exterminated. However, it was just luck. Furthermore, during this battle, I increasingly felt that the top fighting capabilities of the human race were still extremely weak. Next up, I might have to go into seclusion again. I hope that I can break through as soon as possible. Otherwise, I'm afraid that I won't be able to respond to the great calamity that is coming my way. " Nangong Shi thought for a while and said.

"Are we going to start closed-door training again? "Shi Er, Mother didn't even have a good talk with you …" Murong Xue said somewhat reluctantly after hearing what she said.

"You, are a woman's benevolence. If the great calamity were to come soon, perhaps not a single Zhen Wu Continent would be able to survive. At that time, what time would he have to train? Not to mention reunion. Since he had the time now, he might as well do as Shi Er had said. "When the humankind has settled down, I won't interfere with any of your conversations." After Nangong Xuan heard this, he immediately said. However, the expression on his face was also one of reluctance.

"Father, mother just misses Bother Shi for a moment. Don't talk about godmother. Didn't you secretly tell me that you haven't had a proper meal and chat with Bother Shi after so long? " Luo Cheng also walked over and said. As Luo Cheng's words fell, Nangong Xuan's face instantly flushed red.

"Kid, why did you say all these words out loud?" Nangong Xuan said as he turned his head towards Luo Cheng.

"Alright dad, mom, grandma, let me accompany you for a day. I will start my closed door cultivation after the day after tomorrow. Is this enough? There's nothing to worry about, after all, there's only being a day or two late. " Seeing this scene, Nangong Shi's heart immediately felt warm, and at the same time, felt a little guilty. After all, in this long period of time, he had indeed not properly stayed by his parents' side for even a moment.

"Good, good. Tonight, father and son, the two of us will not return until we're drunk. " After Nangong Xuan heard this, he immediately became excited.

"You … You were talking about me just now. Look at you now." Seeing that, Murong Xue rolled his eyes at Nangong Xuan in annoyance.

"Haha." Seeing this, everyone laughed.

In the evening.

Everyone took their seats inside the palace. Elder Mo, the Four Great Divine Beast Kings, Murong Li, Tianyi and all the elders, Liu Zixiang, as well as Luo Cheng, Murong Yue, and Murong Qing, all took their seats according to their seniority. From time to time, people would enter the main hall with dishes and wine.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I hope you do not mind the wine." Murong Li said as he raised his wine cup.

"Palace Head Murong is too serious." Hearing what was said, Elder Mo and the four Divine Beast Kings raised their wine cups and replied.

"Qilin King, the four of you, please." Murong Li laughed upon hearing this, and at the same time raised her wine cup to drink.

If only he could continue like this forever. Seeing this scene, Nangong Shi couldn't help but sigh. But very quickly, Luo Cheng walked over with a cup.

After a few rounds, Nangong Shi started to feel a bit dizzy and intoxicated. Initially, he wanted to use his powers to dispel the alcohol, but seeing that everyone's expression was slightly tipsy, Nangong Shi then dispersed the spirit energy gathered in his body. Since that was the case, he might as well get drunk tonight.

….

The next day, when the sun's rays shone into Nangong Shi's room, he slowly woke up. Last night, after drinking so many cups of wine, he had actually fallen asleep in such a drowsy state. Nangong Shi used his Spirit Qi and instantly dispelled the remaining alcohol in his body, and then he started to regain consciousness.

He wondered how Uncle Beiming, Daoist Master Wang Wei and the others were doing. With that thought, Nangong Shi's figure blurred and disappeared from the house.

At the back of the mountain.

Nangong Shi walked out from the void, instantly releasing his divine sense to investigate. After a while, Nangong Shi opened his eyes, with a look of satisfaction on his face.

"I never would have thought that their cultivation speed would be so fast in the outside world. "Although I possess this fake dragon vein, if I had not used it firmly, I would not have been able to use it so quickly." Nangong Shi muttered, he then sent a message to the Elder Mo, after which he flew into the depths of the fake dragon vein and began his closed door cultivation.

Time passed in the blink of an eye. Very quickly, Nangong Shi had closed up for three months. As for the Daoist Master Beiming s who were previously in closed-door training, they all woke up one after another. In these three months, the people who were previously in the pseudo dragon fountain to cultivate had all withdrawn from their closed-door cultivation. When they found out that the Monster race had all been wiped out, everyone was moved.

In the fourth month, Nangong Chu and Nangong Yue had returned to the Zhen Wu Continent from Wu Huang Hai and arrived at Nine Lives Palace. Time slowly passed, but Nangong Shi still did not show any signs of waking up from his closed door cultivation.

Boom.

In the fifth month, a thunderous boom suddenly erupted from the back of the mountain. Everyone stopped what they were doing and went to the back of the mountain.

"Is he about to wake up?"
