After all, the aura in the Upper Bound was significantly more vibrant than the aura in the Lower Bound. It was beneficial for them to cultivate up above.

To return to the Upper Bound, they needed to travel through some peculiar place. It was okay for the three of them to do so, but not for Di Xuyue. She was too young and needed to be trained to level nine before she can be brought to the Upper Bound with her parents.

Of course, the Starry Crescent Land could not be without its Lord for long periods of time. So, they still had to come back once every six months until the next Lord was appointed. According to the heavenly law, Gu Xijiu needed to be the Lord for 10,000 years before the next Lord would appear.

However, when Di Xuyue had turned four, Di Fuyi noticed signs of a new Lord through examining the starry array. The odd thing about it was that the new Lord seemed to be currently outside of the Starry Crescent Land.

Despite his genuine attempt to figure out the identity of the individual, Di Fuyi's efforts were futile. Nonetheless, he was not worried. Since this star had already appeared, the other party would inevitably arise in a hundred years or so and take over the position from Gu Xijiu. By then, they could completely get rid of this burden.

A hundred years was not too long. They could afford to wait for it. Although Di Xuyue's qualifications were not outstanding, she was also a brilliant child. She was like a sponge that absorbed knowledge very quickly.

Her main disadvantage was that she was more timid and playful than they had envisioned. She was not serious in her cultivation and automatically retreated whenever she encountered difficult situations. She would even scream and cry whenever she saw a cockroach. And, once she got scolded for being afraid, she would try to act like a cute little girl.

If she were an average child, Di Fuyi would be somewhat impressed by her. He just wondered how she turned out to be so average and timid. Because of this characteristic of hers, Di Xuyue was often punished by Di Fuyi. The man had trained countless disciples, so he was experienced in teaching. When he was reincarnated as Shen Nianmo, he suffered under Shen Jiuli's guidance, so naturally, he was a strict teacher.

Of course, Di Fuyi and Shen Jiuli had very different characters, so their teaching methods were also different. In the past, Shen Jiuli treated Di Fuyi like a sheep. He often threw Di Fuyi into the wizardry barrier and let him explore it and grow on his own. Shen Jiuli was rigorous and has compiled a lot of secrets for his son to learn systematically.

On the other hand, Di Fuyi preferred to train his daughter as opposed to dumping her into foreign lands to find her own way. For example, Di Xuyue was somewhat fearful of heights, so she did not want to practice the flying skills taught to her by Di Fuyi. Gu Xijiu forced her several times, but she cried so hard while hugging her leg.

She cried pitifully, asserting that she was still a baby and that people her age should be pampered instead of being forced into such difficult situations. Di Xuyue had a lovely face with big round eyes, long eyelashes, and a small mouth. She was as cute as a Barbie doll. Therefore, it was difficult to stay mad at her when she cried. Even hard-hearted people would become soft-hearted.

Getting this girl was not easy, so Gu Xijiu still pampered her a lot. It was a bit unbearable to see her crying so hard. Thus, she did not force her to practice. However, after Di Fuyi knew about this, he just smiled at his daughter. "Xuyue, let father take you to the clouds to have a stroll." He casually spoke about the scenery in the clouds, which successfully evoked the kid's interest.

Di Xuyue opened her small arms to let him carry her, so he took off with his daughter and went straight to the sky. While holding her safely in his arms, he used the opportunity to test her knowledge about the ability to fly.
