"You were crying and shouting that you wanted to take revenge for me, right? How can you do that in your current state? Even if I tell you who the enemy is, you'll only end up as roasted meat!" With persuasion failing, Mo Wen had no choice but to resort to the method that had once been used on him, hoping that Xiao Hei's relationship with him would elicit some response.
"Boss, is what you said true?" Sure enough, upon hearing Mo Wen's words, Xiao Hei reacted.
"Of course it's true. When have I ever lied to you?" Mo Wen replied in an undeniable tone, and he indeed had never deceived Xiao Hei.
"…It seems you really haven't. But…" After pondering for a moment, Xiao Hei seemed convinced that his boss had not lied to him. Just as he was about to continue speaking, he was interrupted.
"Come find me here in ten years." Mo Wen stated decisively. Ten years was the time he had set for himself; he planned to spend it cultivating the Xuan Tian Manual. He had only been cultivating for about ten years himself. Previous practitioners of the Xuan Tian Manual had not left records of their cultivation times, but he estimated that a decade should be sufficient to grasp the basics.
"Alright! Boss, take care!" Feeling Mo Wen's determination, Xiao Hei no longer hesitated. As Boss Mo said, he needed to improve his strength. Despite possessing the Qilin Bloodline, he couldn't even defeat the lowest-level Demon Beasts in battle. He was fortunate to have his boss's protection along the way; otherwise, he might have already lost his life. Like Mo Wen, Xiao Hei had no idea how much he could achieve in ten years, but even a slight improvement would be progress. In the future, he could help shoulder some responsibilities for his boss. Standing up and glancing at the others in the courtyard, Xiao Hei turned to leave. He looked back at Mo Wen one last time and saw the determination in his eyes before heading out of the city without looking back.
Xiao Hei's departure relieved Mo Wen; his persistent efforts over the past few days had finally paid off. Life in the small courtyard returned to calm. Although Xiao Hei's return brought him some comfort, it also made him anxious, fearing that Xiao Hei might be discovered. Fortunately, while the others were curious, they did not pay too much attention. Their discussions revolved around his relationship with Wang Hu and how this young man, who was particularly cared for by Tiger Ye, was now unable to speak. However, their words reached Mo Wen's ears clearly. It turned out that Wang Hu was an official from the North City Division—an esteemed position in this area that ordinary people could hardly approach. It was unlikely for someone like Wang Hu to come into a beggar's den without reason; he must have been acting on orders from that cloaked figure since that person had said Gong Junyan would not allow him to die. The identity of that cloaked figure was becoming increasingly clear, but now was not the time to dwell on such matters. Closing his eyes, Mo Wen seized the opportunity while his Divine Sea had not yet diminished to delve into understanding the Xuan Tian Manual.
Without cultivation power, his body felt like a fishing net unable to store any spiritual energy. Mo Wen woke from his contemplation feeling starved; this time of reflection yielded no results. After hastily drinking some porridge, he fell into deep thought again. He knew that continuing this way would yield little benefit; there must be a reason why the creator of the Xuan Tian Manual required practitioners to abandon their cultivation first. Perhaps this reason was the key to reopening the door to cultivation. He reviewed the preface of Xuan Tian Jie and the letter left for him by the Xuantian First Commander in hopes of finding some clues within them. However, after several rounds of contemplation, he still found nothing of what he sought.
