The next day, as dawn broke, Li Xuan also opened his eyes.
"Has my young master rested well?" As soon as Li Xuan got out of bed and out of his room, Xu Yuntian, who had been waiting for a long time, bowed slightly to Li Xuan and asked.
"Thank you for your concern, Uncle Xu. I slept well. Uncle Xu came so early, you must have something to tell me, right?" Li Xuan frowned slightly upon hearing this. Ever since Li Xuan woke up, it had been Feng Baijiu who came here almost every day.
Although Xu Yuntian had accompanied her during this time, not a single day had been missed. Today, with Xu Yuntian's appearance and such a polite attitude, it was likely that Feng Baijiu was now in some trouble.
Xu Yuntian was also slightly stunned upon hearing this, clearly not expecting Li Xuan to see through it so easily.
Under Li Xuan's gaze, Xu Yuntian nodded with a wry smile and said, "It seems my young master is not an ordinary person and must have a significant background. However, this old man knows he has no right to inquire about it."
Xu Yuntian paused and continued, "It's just that at present, Miss Feng can no longer come to take care of my young master as before. Furthermore, since my young master has recovered quite a bit, I wonder what clan my young master belongs to? So that I can send someone to relay a message for your clansmen to come and fetch you back."
Li Xuan instantly understood when he heard this. So Xu Yuntian's arrival was to get him to leave. And Feng Baijiu had likely been confined because she had been too close to him during this period.
And the only ones who could achieve all this would be the high-ranking officials of the Phoenix clan.
Moreover, from his previous understanding, Li Xuan already knew that Feng Baijiu's father was the patriarch of the Phoenix clan. It was indeed somewhat inappropriate for his daughter to spend a long time alone with a strange man.
"I understand Uncle Xu's intentions. I have indeed been an imposition during this time. Please trouble yourself to convey my gratitude to Miss Feng. If I, Li Xuan, am ever needed in the future, I will spare no effort to help!"
Li Xuan cupped his fists and bowed to Xu Yuntian, then said with a solemn expression.
Without a doubt, Feng Baijiu and Xu Yuntian had saved Li Xuan's life. Such a promise was the greatest repayment Li Xuan could offer.
"Your intention is enough. It's just that my young master, although your body has recovered, your cultivation... perhaps, as this old man suggests, it would be better to have your clansmen come to fetch you? After all, the journey back might still be fraught with danger."
Xu Yuntian said with a hint of reluctance as he saw Li Xuan preparing to leave on his own.
Li Xuan smiled and shook his head, saying, "Thank you for your concern, Uncle Xu. Although my cultivation has not fully recovered, I can still protect myself. Unless I am extremely unlucky and encounter those Twelve Beast Kings again."
"This... alright, since my young master is determined, then this old man will comply. Does my young master need anything prepared? If so, please do not hesitate to ask. As long as this old man can do it, I will not refuse." Perhaps feeling somewhat apologetic, Xu Yuntian said as he looked at Li Xuan.
Li Xuan pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly, "Indeed, I do need Uncle Xu's help a little. I left in a hurry and am not very familiar with the distribution of this Beast Domain. If Uncle Xu could provide me with a map of the Beast Domain, it might help me a lot."
"A map of the Beast Domain? This is not difficult. My young master, do you need anything else?"
Xu Yuntian was slightly taken aback. He had expected Li Xuan to make some demands, but he hadn't expected this. A map was not difficult for Xu Yuntian at all.
"Thank you, Uncle Xu. A map is sufficient," Li Xuan said, shaking his head.
"If that's the case, then alright." Xu Yuntian hesitated for a moment, then nodded. As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Yuntian waved his hand, and a spiritual light entered Li Xuan's forehead and disappeared instantly.
"Thank you, Uncle Xu. Now that everything is settled, I will take my leave," Li Xuan said, bowing again after closing his eyes to check.
"Take care, my young master!" Xu Yuntian also bowed slightly in return, his gaze fixed on Li Xuan's departing figure, not retracting for a long time.
"Li Xuan!"
Just as Li Xuan's figure completely disappeared from Xu Yuntian's sight, a clear voice suddenly echoed from afar, reaching Xu Yuntian's ears. Xu Yuntian turned back with a wry smile. The person who arrived was Feng Baijiu. Her anxious look clearly showed she was worried about Li Xuan.
"Miss Feng, my young master has already left." Xu Yuntian bowed with a hint of helplessness, blocking Feng Baijiu's path.
"He just left like this..."
Feng Baijiu felt a pang of bitterness upon hearing this. Early this morning, her mother had come to her room, her purpose being to make her break off contact with Li Xuan.
Feng Baijiu had originally thought that Li Xuan could continue to stay in the Phoenix clan, but she hadn't expected that when she finally managed to run out, Li Xuan had already left.
Although Feng Baijiu knew that Li Xuan was forced to leave.
As for her feelings for Li Xuan, Feng Baijiu couldn't quite articulate them.
She only knew that when she was with Li Xuan, listening to him talk about his past experiences, her heart filled with endless beauty.
She only knew that when she was with Li Xuan, her days were always relaxed and happy.
"Miss Feng, my young master should be fine. Perhaps, one day in the future, you and my young master may have a chance to meet again," Xu Yuntian said as he saw Feng Baijiu's low spirits.
"Uncle Xu, is what you say true?" Feng Baijiu asked, looking at Xu Yuntian.
Xu Yuntian nodded slightly, his gaze fixed on the direction Li Xuan had left, and said slowly, "Miss is the future of our Phoenix clan, and her achievements in the future will surely be limitless. As for this young master, this old servant cannot see through him."
...
As night fell, Li Xuan, who had left the Phoenix clan, looked at the rolling mountains before him with a solemn expression.
According to the map of the Beast Domain, the area surrounding the Phoenix clan was the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains. If his cultivation were still present, Li Xuan could naturally traverse the void. However, now, he could only rely on his physical body to pass through. In this Beast Domain, there would surely be many beasts.
It could be said that this journey was undoubtedly fraught with danger.
After more than half a year of recuperation, Li Xuan's cultivation had only managed to recover about twenty percent. All of this was thanks to the Qi-Invigorating Marrow-Strengthening Pills provided by Feng Baijiu.
After regaining some of his cultivation, Li Xuan had also tried to ascertain why his cultivation could not recover, but the results were inexplicable. Whether Li Xuan's cultivation could be fully restored was something even Li Xuan himself was unsure of.
Fortunately, his physical strength was still there, otherwise, Li Xuan would not have chosen to leave after hearing Xu Yuntian's words.
Li Xuan withdrew his gaze, pondered for a moment, and then said slowly, "Never mind, given the current situation, it's better to wait until dawn to act."
After thinking this, Li Xuan found a cave, made some simple arrangements, and then closed his eyes to rest.
