That word of being called “shifu” left her feeling very much guilty inside.

  On the other hand, Nangong Zhun was stunned and started at the woman with a inexplicable look of shock like he’s ready to cry. “Shifu, do you not want me anymore?”


  Bai Yan smiled and shook her head: “I just feel that I’ve failed in being your shifu and doesn’t deserve it. I taught you nothing so far. Whatever achievement you have today is your own effort….”


  In just a few years, this boy’s strength has increased a lot, and perhaps in the future he would stand at the peak of this world.

  “It was Xiachen who saved me from the hands of that bully. I didn’t have a mother, and it was you who let me have a taste of a mother’s warmth in that few days we were together. In this life, I will only look to you as my shifu and mother!” Nangong Zhun stubbornly raises his face, those eyes determined and unyielding. “I know where you are now, isn’t it just the Celestial Realm? Wait ten years, after ten years, I will definitely go find you!”


  Bai Yan’s smile became more and more obvious: “Alright, I’ll gladly wait for you.”


  Nangong Zhun breaks into a smile at the approval: “Shifu, my father ran away from home since last year and left me the Liu Huo Kingdom. I’m not able to do it yet, but I promise that I will turn this kingdom into a nation worthy to stand beside the three great powers. I will turn it into an empire. That way you won’t lose face when I go to the Celestial Realm.”


  His shifu was recognized as the most extraordinary person in these lands; therefore, how could he bring shame to Bai Yan’s prestige by bringing nothing to the table?

  “It’s good to have ambitions,” Bai Yan pats the young lad on the shoulder, “since you already assumed the position of a king, where’s your queen?”


  Nangong Zhun shakes his head: “I don’t want to marry a wife so quickly. I envy you and your husband, Shifu. In the future, I also want to have only one love for one life. Until I meet a suitable woman, I won’t marry.”


  A cultivator’s life expectancy was extremely long anyways, he had plenty of time to wait.

  “That’s fine, I like and support your idea.” Bai Yan felt proud of the boy’s determination and pleasing personality. Turning to the dowager, “Your Highness, I hope that you won’t force Zhun to marry either, I want him to be happy.”


  The empress dowager smiled bitterly as a response, “I don’t have a problem with my grandson not marrying either, but those ministers have other ideas in mind and constantly attempts to dump their daughters on him. I was hoping you can speak with them and refuse on Zhun’s behalf Yan’er.”


  Bai Yan narrowed her eyes in thought.

  Why do kings and emperors have all numbers of wives? Probably not because the man himself actually liked those females, but rather it’s because of the ministers wanting to send their daughters into the royal bed chamber.

  “Highness, you can tell them to come speak to me next time. I will be happy to lecture them on this subject in the Demon Realm. Since the barrier separating all three realms are gone, I know they can travel if they dared.”


  The dowager’s heart slowly eased up at the promise.

  Going to the Demon Realm to find her? Those ministers wouldn’t dare!

  “Little Zhun, I haven’t taught you anything so I’ve always felt guilty about failing you as your mentor. This is a good opportunity so take these elixirs. They can help you greatly in your cultivation.”
