Cultivation Online

"Good luck, Senior Bai! Good luck, Senior Yuan!"

The disciples cheered for them as they entered the sparring area.

"Ready whenever you are." Yuan said to White Lotus, who stood a couple meters away with a serious expression on her face.

"Here I come!" White Lotus announced right before she approached him with a wooden sword.

Yuan calmly and casually dodged the attack, but White Lotus immediately followed up with a second strike.

Thud!

Yuan effortlessly blocked it with his wooden sword.

"Not bad." He swung the sword, forcing White Lotus to retrieve several steps.

'What tyrannical strength! It only looked like he had causally moved his sword, yet it felt as though I had been struck by a large hammer!' White Lotus was shocked after experiencing Yuan's strength for the first time.

Although she was aware of his prowess, it was a whole different story to experience it first-hand.

"Are you okay?" Yuan asked her when she stopped moving.

"Sorry, I lost focus for a second. It won't happen again." White Lotus tightened her grip on the sword and proceeded to attack Yuan again.

The disciples that had been cheering at the beginning quickly stopped when they realized how one-sided the fight between Yuan and White Lotus was.

"I thought Senior Bai would be able to pressure him even if it's just a little, but looking at them now, their fight doesn't seem anything different from the previous spars! He's treating her like a child just like he did to the rest of us!" The disciples were shocked when they realized this.

"Senior Yuan is much more profound and powerful than I anticipated… I wonder what cultivation level he has achieved."

"Seeing how he's handling Senior Bai with so little effort, he's definitely already a Spirit Master."

'More like a Spirit Grandmaster.' Yu Rou and Xia Jingyi thought to themselves after hearing their topic.

Fifteen minutes later, White Lotus collapsed on the ground and said in an exhausted manner, "I-I surrender."

"Thank you for the spar." Yuan said to her before reaching his hand out to her.

White Lotus grabbed it with a defeated smile on her face.

The disciples started cheering once again even though their faction leader had lost, as it was an entertaining spar, and they learned a lot as spectators.

"How much will it cost to hire you to train us?" White Lotus asked him in a somewhat joking tone after getting back to her feet.

"If you come to the Dragon Spiral Mountain, I can train you guys for free."

"Seriously?" White Lotus did not expect such an answer and was taken aback by it.

"Yes. We have plenty of room there, and it seems fun, like a collaboration of sorts between the factions." He nodded.

"Then I will seriously consider your offer."

Sometime later, Fiery Queen showed up, "What are you guys doing? It looks fun."

"You're still here? Why don't you leave already? You have already achieved what you came here for, anyway." White Lotus said to her.

"I will leave when Yuan leaves." Fiery Queen said in a shameless manner.

"Don't worry, I won't stay here for long." Yuan said.

"By the way, I have spoken to my family about our business. They have agreed to it, so you can sell us information whenever you want."

"I'll contact you in a week or so."

"I'll be waiting."

At the end of the day, Yuan said to Yu Rou, "I have decided to leave after tomorrow."

"You're leaving already?"

He nodded, "If I make the Yu Family wait too long, who knows what they'll do."

"Actually, they have been trying to contact me since your concert. I ignored all of them, though. They can't do anything to me as long as I am a member of this faction, anyway. This is even more true now that White Lotus is aware of your real identity." Yu Rou chuckled.

Yuan notified White Lotus about his leave the following morning.

"I see… So you're leaving already. It hasn't been that long since we met, but it feels like I have known you for years now." White Lotus said to him.

"Feel free to visit me whenever you want." Yuan smiled.

"And you're free to visit us whenever you want. Our faction will always have its doors open for you."

"That's good to hear."

After spending the entire day with Yu Rou, Yuan also spent the last night sleeping with her.

"Don't do anything crazy when you get back, Brother." Yu Rou said to them as they prepared to go to sleep.

"I will try not to, but it's going to be hard."

"As long as you don't do anything that will make you a criminal, I will be fine with it."

Yuan silently nodded with a smile.

The two of them fell asleep shortly after.

The following morning, a good portion of the people at Eternal Lotuses gathered at the entrance to see Yuan and his group off.

Yu Rou, Xia Jingyi, and White Lotus followed them all the way to the airport.

"When do you think I will see you guys again?" Yu Rou asked them.

"I will try to visit you once a month." Yuan said.

"That would be great, but since I know that you're a busy man, let's not make any schedules and just see each other whenever we can. I will also try to visit you once in a while." Yu Rou said.

"Sure."

"Also, your birthday is coming up in three months, right? I will be the one to visit you then, so make sure you're free on that day."

"It's a promise." Yuan nodded.

He then turned to look at White Lotus and said to her, "See you later. Despite the slight inconvenience we had, I had fun the last few days."

"Me too. We should play together in Cultivation Online sometimes."

"Of course."

After saying their final goodbyes, the two groups hugged each other.

Yuan's group boarded the plane shortly after while Yu Rou and White Lotus returned to the faction.
