Gu Xijiu studied him for a while and heaved a sigh after making some calculations about his destiny. "Your name is incomplete. I shall now grant you a surname. What about Fan?"

Qianshi's eyes glistened with joy. "Thank you, my master. From now on, I will be known as Fan Qianshi."

"Do you know what the word 'Fan' stands for?"

"Please enlighten me," Qianshi answered.

"Your personality is unpredictable. There is no clear line between right or wrong for you. At times, your way of dealing with a situation may get a little too aggressive. Hence, the word, 'Fan' means to show great mercy. I hope that you can be compassionate and stay away from any wrongdoings. May you be a great man for thousands of years to come and protect the world with all you can."

Fan Qianshi took some time to absorb her words and then replied, "I shall do as you said, master."

Due to his unique physique that was nurtured by the essence of heaven and earth, the rate of his growth was tremendous. In three years, his physical appearance had changed from that of a toddler into a teenager with adult qualities and strength.

…

In reality, Di Hao could not help but sigh. As expected, Fan Qianshi really did become Gu Xijiu's disciple. He knew his mother well enough to be aware that she would either keep her guard high up or trust a person wholeheartedly. There was no in-between.

She even gave Fan Qianshi his name. It seemed like Gu Xijiu was ready to let him take over her role when she was finally gone.

At this point, no signs of the master of heavenly law were revealed yet. He wondered if the master of heavenly law had already come into existence by that time. That sounded very plausible since creating the heavenly laws could be a very long process. It was meant to create harmony among the six worlds over time.

When Gu Xijiu was still alive, the six worlds were not well established yet. Anyone could do anything without being bound by any laws. Fighting was a common occurrence when things did not work out the way a party intended. It was a world without structure, governance, and laws. Without a proper set of rules, the master of heavenly law would have no role to play. Nonetheless, perhaps it just was not the right time for Di Fuyi to show up yet.

Di Hao was a little disappointed. He stared at Gu Xijiu in his vision and could not help but wonder how Fan Qianshi became so wicked. He decided to keep watching to find out more because, as far as he was concerned, Fan Qianshi was not a bad person when Gu Xijiu took him under her apprenticeship.

Fortunately for Di Hao, the Tracing Spell that used had the features to speed up the images in his vision or even rewind to help him see the details better.

…

His vision was brought forward across the timeline. A decade had passed, so Fan Qianshi and Wu Qianyan had been with Gu Xijiu for ten years now.

Over the past decade, Gu Xijiu had been very mysterious and kept a very low profile. She never met any of the kings or leaders. When she had to travel somewhere, she would always use the facial disguise technique to cover up her identity.

The wizardry barrier that secured the valley, on the contrary, had become stronger and brighter in time, so no one dared to cross the line.

Nonetheless, in actuality, Gu Xijiu's kung fu did not improve at all over the last decade. Instead, she had taken many steps backward. Her level of spiritual power was only about ten percent left of her former strength. The main positive was that she could upkeep her divine aura, so people dared not take advantage of her.

When any leaders came to visit, they would be turned down by the creator of the universe and met by Fan Qianshi. As soon as Gu Xijiu took him as her disciple, she taught him everything that she knew, thus taking his progress to a higher level.

In a decade, Fan Qianshi's kung fu had already surpassed any other immortals with thousands of years of cultivation. When he was born, he was only at the level of a Golden Immortal. By now, he was almost a Great Deity.

The rulers of the six worlds all witnessed the tremendous progress of the child, which they knew was only possible under the guidance of the creator of the universe.
