Chapter 72
But when she returned, the whole world was cheering her on and shouting her name.
The common people in the Imperial Capital all came to see her.
Seeing the people outside frantically praising her achievements, Princess Yulin felt a little ashamed.
She knew how much Lin Jiufeng had contributed to her success in this matter.
But she alone took all the credit.
She truly found it uncomfortable.
“There’s no need to worry. Nothing would’ve happened if you weren’t courageous enough.”
Lin Jiufeng comforted her.
“Master. You’re still alive, right?” Princess Yulin suddenly asked.
She ignored the compliments of the outside world and focused on the sword case.
She wasn’t a fool.
Lin Jiufeng had previously said that he was invited by Emperor Yuan to teach her in her dream world. Princess Yulin had truly believed that this was the case.
But then, Lin Jiufeng followed her into the Plains and they both fought against the enemies and slaughtered them together.
Lin Jiufeng had also revealed his true form.
Princess Yulin was even more certain that this was the case.
She just never mentioned it until now.
Now that they were back in the Imperial Capital, Princess Yulin finally had the chance to ask.
Lin Jiufeng laughed out loud. “Don’t keep guessing whether I’m dead or alive. Don’t you realize that you’ve already become a symbol of the Yuhua God Dynasty?”
Princess Yulin didn’t care about anything else. She dismissed Lin Jiufeng’s words as she followed up. “After witnessing Master’s power, I know that my cultivation base is still very weak compared to the grand scheme of things. I really need Master’s guidance.”
Princess Yulin was just short of telling Lin Jiufeng to continue to be her teacher.
But Lin Jiufeng directly refused.
“I’ve already taught you everything that I should. You don’t need my help anymore, handle your own matters well and work hard to improve.”
Princess Yulin could only close this fleeting thought of hers.
Entering the Imperial Capital, Princess Yulin shook off everyone and placed Lin Jiufeng’s sword case in front of the Cold Palace.
“Is this okay?”
With her cleverness, Princess Yulin wanted to know where Lin Jiufeng’s real body was.
As a result, she stayed close to the gates, waiting for them to open.
But Lin Jiufeng never came out nor answered her.
He only controlled the power of his Divine Soul to make the sword case float up and enter the Cold Palace.
From the beginning till the end, Lin Jiufeng’s true body never appeared.
Princess Yulin looked on helplessly.
She could only go to the f*******n City to look for her brother and mother.
…
Regardless of the disturbances of the outside world, Lin Jiufeng’s Divine Soul returned and immediately entered his body.
It was just three to four days that they were separated from each other…
While Lin Jiufeng’s real body continued to sign-in in the Cold Palace, his divine soul followed Princess Yulin to the Plains.
Then, those things happened.
After his body and Divine Soul became one again, Lin Jiufeng let out a long breath.
He laid on the frost jade bed, his body still a little weak.
His Divine Soul had been gone for too long, he couldn’t get used to it for the time being.
He had to slowly get used to it like those saturation divers that didn’t want to get the bends.
The white cat had been accompanying Lin Jiufeng’s body for the past few days.
She was afraid that something would suddenly go wrong.
Many people whose divine souls left their bodies had to protect their bodies well.
Otherwise, their divine souls might still exist but their bodies, destroyed or kidn*pped by their enemies.
If that happened, then it would be difficult to find a replacement to house the less Divine Soul. After all, a cultivator had to find a body with a suitable bloodline and sufficient bodily strength that could endure the might of their Divine Soul.
“This matter is finally resolved. I can finally continue my routine in peace,” Lin Jiufeng said happily.
Lin Jiufeng didn’t like the concept of marriage alliances, but he understood the reasons behind it.
Now that Princess Yulin had resolved her own problem, the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow didn’t dare to mention anything about the marriage alliance anymore.
Weren’t they beaten up badly enough already?
Peace had once again arrived in the Cold Palace.
Lin Jiufeng continued to live the life of a ‘shut-in otaku’.
He continued to sign-In at the demon’s den every day for the sake of treasures.
If there was anything that he needed, he would absorb it to improve himself.
“How is it? How’s the scenery on the Plains?”
“I’m just a cat in the Cold Palace and I haven’t seen such a scene before, so I’m curious!”
The white cat asked curiously.
Since her birth, she had never gone to the Plains.
And that so-called Wolf Storey Mountain.
“It’s not fun at all. The ground is covered in pure white snow, and I can’t see anything other than snow. It’s not interesting, since you can also see snow in the Cold Palace.”
Lin Jiufeng shook his head.
“Then forget it.” The white cat shook her head and lost interest.
Lin Jiufeng hugged her and stroked her ever so gently as usual.
Just like that, almost a month passed by.
Dachun came to deliver food.
Once a month, Dachun would always come.
He had always been punctual about his schedule.
He brought good food and good wine along with some news.

: :
After returning to the Cold Palace, Lin Jiufeng’s life became comfortable once again.
Everyone in the world praised Princess Yulin.
They proclaimed her as the number one talent in recorded history.
A 16-year-old Human God.
The 16-year-old princess of the Yuhua God Dynasty.
The future guardian of the Yuhua God Dynasty.
All the good words and praises in the world were plastered onto Princess Yulin.
Every move that she made now made people wonder what exactly her intentions were.
No one knew about Lin Jiufeng.
But Lin Jiufeng was happy about this arrangement.
Today, he went to the demon’s den early in the morning and started his routine.
Boom!
After defeating the charging demon with one move, Lin Jiufeng ignored the resentment of the demons below and began to sign in.
[Sign-In successful. Received one Grotto-Heaven Great Pill!]
Lin Jiufeng immediately checked the pill’s attributes.
[Grotto-heaven Great Pill: A pill used to continuously increase the potential of one’s Grotto-heaven to aid in its expansion. Its increase depends on the Host’s overall potential.]
Lin Jiufeng muttered in shock. “This sure is a pleasant surprise. I was just troubled that my Grotto-heaven hasn’t been expanding lately, and it seems to have reached a bottleneck. I didn’t expect to receive such a pill from signing in this time. What a coincidence.”
With the help of the pill, Lin Jiufeng could continue his steady improvement once again.
After coming out of the underground palace, Lin Jiufeng walked into his room.
He held the Grotto-Heaven Great Pill in his hand as his mind spun.
“I’ve been in the Grotto-Heaven Realm for a long time now. Will this pill help me in making a breakthrough?”
Lin Jiufeng entered this realm five years ago.
The Grotto-Heaven Realm had ten levels, which meant that the Grotto-heaven had to be expanded ten times.
Ordinary people would form 10 grotto-heavens, but Lin Jiufeng chose to expand his existing Divine Grade Grotto-heaven by 10 times instead of forming 10 grotto-heavens.
These were two completely different choices, but there was no doubt that the latter gave a better potential and greater increase in might.
‘Twenty to thirty years have passed since that rain. The Holy Maiden has undoubtedly failed in her work in these past few years.’ Lin Jiufeng suddenly remembered the Holy Maiden.
The people of the Heavenly Dao Sect wanted to suppress the people from the previous era to prevent them from prematurely corrupting the brand new era.
But there was no doubt that the Holy Maiden, Miss Hong had failed.
The Zenith Heaven Path Sect was from the previous era.
The Essence Qi Sect of the Plains was also from the previous era.
The appearance of these two major sects was enough evidence to say that Miss Hong had failed.
One had to know that Lin Jiufeng’s source of information was very limited.
He seldom left the Cold Palace to venture out.
He was just quietly accumulating his strength in the Cold Palace and he had done all of this ever since he arrived in this world.
Even so, he knew that two major sects from the previous era had already appeared in this world. Considering this fact, Lin Jiufeng started to wonder about just how many of those from the previous era had already appeared in the outside world.
Moreover, just exactly how many of them were still in hiding until now?
At the end of the day, the brand new era had just started.
Only 20 to 30 years have passed since that rain.
The children from back then had just become adults and they were mere greenhorns of the martial path.
As for the older generations, many of them managed to make a breakthrough into the Martial Sage Realm and even the Human God Realm.
However, only a handful of them managed to enter the Grotto-Heaven Realm.
Lin Jiufeng had never even heard of anyone who was at the Grotto-Heaven Realm.
But this was probably because he was usually ignorant of the outside world. It was understandable, however, for he spent most of his days in the confines of this cold palace.
But Lin Jiufeng’s Divine Soul followed Princess Yulin to the Plains once, and he witnessed that the Emperor of the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow was only at the peak of the Human God Realm.
In that Essence Qi Sect, there was only a single peak Human God Realm expert.
No one among them was in the Grotto-Heaven Realm.
“As time slowly passes, those people will naturally resurface. Those who have surpassed the Grotto-Heaven Realm back then are all hidden beneath the surface of this turbid water, they truly are unfathomable. I still have to work hard to further improve myself.”
