"Senior is too handsome and extraordinary. I've never seen somebody like you before. Please don't blame me."
Ji Qiaoyun blushed.
"Oh, that's what I like to hear, but that's not all, right?"
Song Shi said with a faint smile.
Ji Qiaoyun nervously pinched her skirt and stuttered, "It's… it's because I'm prepared to be betrothed to Senior by the clan."
"Um…"
Song Shi stroked his chin and sized up Ji Qiaoyun. She could be said to be peerless in her generation, and it was indeed tempting. "So the genius your patriarch is talking about is you. You're indeed quite a genius. You've reached the Void Refinement Realm at such a young age."
"I can't compare to Senior," Ji Qiaoyun said shyly.
"It's a pity that we're not fated. I'm about to ascend soon, so I don't have time to cultivate feelings with you."
Song Shi teased.
Ji Qiaoyun's face was red, but there was a faint sense of loss. Her nervousness dissipated a lot, and she held her small hand. "I will definitely be able to ascend too."
"Sure, I hope we can meet in the Immortal World in the future."
Song Shi smiled and casually asked, "What's the situation outside now?"
"Because Senior killed Demon Emperor Wan Shan and greatly shocked the Demon Race. Now, the Demon Race has slowed down their attacks, and even many of the Demon Race in the North Mystic Continent have temporarily retreated. The pressure on all sides has decreased, and they are all quite grateful to Senior."
Ji Qiaoyun's beautiful eyes were filled with admiration. In their eyes, Song Shi had such achievements at such a young age. He could be said to be everyone's role model.
"So I've become a thorn in their side. A thorn in their flesh."
Song Shi could not help but smile. He did not seem to care at all. His calm appearance made Ji Qiaoyun's eyes shine.
"Hahaha, Brother Song, you can't think that way. To our Mystic Spirit Realm, you are a hero. All the Great Emperors are paying attention to you. Many of them want to visit you personally."
Ji Xiyang flew over, his old face full of smiles.
Song Shi looked behind Ji Xiyang. There was no cover in the center of a palace, and a dazzling brilliance was illuminating the sky. The Spiritual Qi nearby gathered, and the flames in the palace were tumbling. In the center of the palace, there was a golden pill furnace floating with peerless treasures brewing inside.
In front of the cauldron, there was another Ji Xiyang sitting cross-legged. Song Shi identified him and what greeted him was an incarnation.
"There's no need for a visit. I'm about to leave."
Song Shi stated his plan. He had been in the Ji family for a long time, so it was time for him to leave.
"Brother Song is still going to save Saint King Lang Ya?" Ji Xiyang guessed.
"I'm going to take a look. If he's still alive, I'll help him and get some resources."
Song Shi nodded. His comprehension of the realm had reached a certain level, and he was just short of sufficient resources to accumulate his cultivation. The Immortal Ruins was said to have many immortal treasures, so they would definitely be useful to him.
"I admire Brother Song for being so trustworthy. This is rare in the cultivation world."
Ji Xiyang lamented and said, "Where is Brother's Sect? I can give them an explanation. There are many fellow Daoists who want to visit you."
"Sect?"
Song Shi curled his lips. "I ascended from the lower realms. How can I have a Daoist sect? Other than staying in the Dian Cang Sword Sect for a short period of time, I'm alone. You don't have to worry about which faction I come from."
"Brother, you can start a sect. With your current ability, it won't be difficult for you to establish a top faction in the Mystic Spirit Realm."
Ji Xiyang suggested.
"I haven't considered that. I think I'm going to the Immortal World soon. There's no need to go through so much trouble."
Song Shi did not hide his confidence in becoming an immortal.
"Soon…"
Ji Xiyang's face twitched. As a Mahayana cultivator, he didn't even dare to say such words. He couldn't even guarantee that he could ascend. But this person said such words when he was only at the Body Integration Realm.
At this moment, he also realized that Song Shi had already reached the late-stage of the Body Integration Realm. He could not help but be shocked by his speed of improvement. It was normal for ordinary Body Integration Realm cultivators to spend thousands of years to increase such a small realm.
"Ahem, Brother Song's talent is extraordinary. It's not something us old men can compare to. However, Brother Song should have relatives and friends in the lower realm, right? Isn't it good to establish a faction and give them a good cultivation environment?"
Ji Xiyang suggested awkwardly.
"It's not impossible. Let's talk about it when we meet a suitable place."
Song Shi felt that it was feasible.
He had already been in the Mystic Spirit Realm for longer than the lower realm, but it would probably take another hundred years for him to ascend. This was also considering the situation of using the immortal-grade resources in the Immortal Ruins.
"The Fallen God Valley is not bad. You can make use of it."
Wuyou interrupted from the side.
Ji Xiyang didn't hear her and waved at Ji Qiaoyun. After the latter left, he said, "Brother Song, if you don't mind, this old man is willing to build another city for you next to Floating City. We will take care of each other and become allies."
"There's no need. I already have plans. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave first. See you again."
Song Shi was prepared to save Saint King Lang Ya and could not be bothered to delay any longer.
"Be careful. You're a popular figure in the two worlds now. If you move alone, we can't rule out the possibility that the Demon Race is targeting you."
Ji Xiyang reminded.
"Oh!?"
Song Shi said meaningfully, "I understand. I'll return this lamp to you. See you again."
He threw the Void Lantern to Ji Xiyang, took a step forward, and instantly left.
Sensing the fluctuation of the Law Power, Ji Xiyang was shocked. "He really controlled the Law Power. Impressive."
He sighed for a moment and thought of something. He patted his head and said, "Sigh, I haven't asked him if he wants a woman. I asked Qiaoyun to guard outside and forgot to ask him if he has any thoughts about her."
Song Shi did not hear this. He had already easily arrived thousands of kilometers away.
