After the crowd rested for a night, they ate a sumptuous breakfast before they assembled to discuss the next plan.

They could ride the Two-Headed Chimeras or Draconic Eagles to travel to the Wanderer Castle, but there was a large distance between Astonvela Manor and the Wanderer Castle. It would take at least several days to travel there, and if they wanted to sneak from the Wanderer Castle to the Moon River, they would take around a month. The Black-Horned Demon’s awakening was just around the corner, and many Abyssal Demons were patrolling the road. They must seize the moment and take action.

“Mr. Richardson, we discussed this last night, and we decided that we will stay in Astonvela Manor for a certain period. We won’t travel with you to the Wanderer Castle, and we also won’t adventure in the Moon River.” The Chief Elven Priestess stated her group’s plan before she paused for a moment and said, “I have to thank you for your help in the road.”

“You don’t have to thank me. Brother Yang Ling’s friends are also my friends,” Richardson was quite surprised, but he responded quickly.

“Staying in Astonvela Manor is also pretty good. This region’s Magical Elements are much denser than other places and practice’s speed would be higher. You are both at the peak of the Mid-Level Deity Stage, and if you seize the time to practice for a period, you will probably become High-Level Deities.” Wilcox stroked his white beard and wore a smile across his face. He heaved a sigh of relief inwardly, but he didn’t express this.

The Graveyard of Gods and Devils was filled with perils, and it was unknown what they would run into on the road to the Moon River. It was difficult even for Wanderers with God-Level power to protect themselves, let alone the Golden Cloak Warriors who had just Sacred-Level and Domain-Level’s power. They would surely run into many difficulties. Originally, Wilcox was pondering over the way to dissuade the Sword God Gerald and his companions against adventuring in the Moon River, and he thought their current decision was pretty good. He didn’t want to waste time arguing with them.

“Brother Richardson, what does your group plan to do later?” When Yang Ling noticed that Richardson and the beauty Sala sat close to each other, he furrowed his brows and let out a sigh. Since the beginning, he didn’t approve and wasn’t optimistic about Sala’s relationship with Richardson. But it was a pity that the world’s affairs were unpredictable and Sala and Richardson only got closer to each other.

“I will ride the Draconic Eagles to the Wanderer Castle, and I will craft a heavy sword from Pure Gold Sand. Later, I will rest for several days before crossing Radley Mountain Range and sneaking into the Moon River. How about it? Brother Yang Ling, do you also plan to reside here?” Richardson responded quickly, and he detected keenly that Yang Ling had something to say. He exchanged a glance with Sala and got a bad feeling.

“No, Astonvela Manor is pretty good, but I don’t plan to reside here,” Yang Ling paused for a moment before he said slowly, “As a matter of fact, I have come to the Graveyard of Gods and Devils with a special secret mission, and I must snatch time to finish it. After I finish it, I will go to the Moon River. If I don’t face any unexpected affairs, we will get to assemble again.”

“Brother Yang Ling, if you can’t travel with us, why don’t you allow Sala to travel with us?” Richardson didn’t want to part with Sala, and he looked nervously at Yang Ling. He said sincerely, “Brother Yang Ling, you can set your mind at ease. I will surely ensure Sala’s safety, and as long as I have a breath left, I won’t allow anyone to harm her.”

Richardson held tightly the beauty Sala’s soft little hand and looked at Yang Ling nervously. For the past few days, Sala and Richardson’s feelings for each other only got deeper, and they didn’t want to part even for a single day. If Richardson had a choice, he would rather stay with the beauty Sala in Astonvela Manor and not go to take any risks in the Moon River.

“Lord, I…”

The beauty Sala also held Richardson’s large hand and she leaned against his sturdy chest. She wanted to speak but hesitated. She wanted to ask Yang Ling to allow her to travel with Richardson, but as she thought about the difficulties Yang Ling would face by traveling alone, she found herself too embarrassed to ask for this. Her power wasn’t remarkable in comparison to the beast in the Magical Beast Army, but she could still stay by Yang Ling’s side and take care of him. She would be in charge of his food, drink, and lodge.

Yang Ling looked at the nervous Richardson and the embarrassed beauty Sala. He muttered to himself for a moment before he said slowly, “There is a saying in my hometown that if two people loved each other sincerely, they don’t have to stay together every day, and a short separation would be god for them. I can give you time to consider carefully whether you are suitable for each other.”

If a couple had a close relationship. Then, they didn’t have to stay together all the time.

Yang Ling refused tactfully Richardson’s request before he cast a meaningful glance at the beauty Sala. He could separate the beauty Sala and Richardson for a period with this travel, and he would give them to ponder over this carefully. If their feelings for each other disappeared after this separation, this would be the best outcome possible. But, if they only got more intense feelings for each other, then there was probably none who could split them up.

“Fine, brother Yang Ling. You should be careful on the road. There is a large stele on the Moon River’s vicinity. Let’s meet there in a month.” Richardson forced himself to smile and stretched his hand to stroke the beauty of Sala’s black hair. He muttered to himself for a moment before he took out the Cutting Edge Badge of Death from his pocket and hung it around the beauty of Sala’s neck. He instructed her to wear it and hide it well.

The Cutting Edge Badge of Death could turn into the Cutting Edge Armor and it also was a protective Divine Weapon that could block low and mid-level spells as well as soul attacks. It was also a status symbol, and even a desperate criminal wouldn’t rashly attack a person with the Cutting Edge Badge of Death.

“I will set off at noon. You don’t have to see me off at that time.” Yang Ling looked at the tearful Sala and the reluctant Richardson before he let out a sigh. He gave them some time to pass together before he went back to his room and sat cross-legged on it.

Richardson didn’t divulge about himself, but it was obvious that his status was anything but simple, and he was supported by the powerful Green Clan. His ancestor was even the Cutting Edge Warrior of Death Alex, who was a lofty being like Algernon Divine Lord and others.

If Richardson was an ordinary person, Yang Ling could set his mind at ease and allow him to date Sala. If the beauty Sala was just a pretty and kindhearted woman, Yang Ling would also not oppose their relationships. But, it was a pity that Richardson had a prominent status and the beauty Sala was…

Yang Ling didn’t want to force them to break up, but he still didn’t want to observe them walk toward a doomed tragedy step by step.

Several hours passed quickly. He bid farewell to the Chief Elven Priestess, Richardson, and others before he hardened his heart and left with the beauty Sala, the Corpse Wizard King, and others. At the departure, Richardson wore a sad look, and he seemed reluctant to part with Sala. As for the beauty Sala, her cheeks were streaming with tears, and she would frequently turn her head back.

“Sala, forget Richardson and forget this experience. You shouldn’t continue obsessing over this. This is the best for you and Richardson.” When they reached a remote forest and left Astonvela Manor far behind, Yang Ling noticed that the beauty Sala was still weeping. He waved his hand and moved her into the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension along with the Corpse Wizard King and others before he left quickly with the Battle Soul Blade on his back.

Swoosh!

Yang Ling was quite swift, and he streaked across treetops’ like a large bird. Later, he just closed his eyes and used his Tree Eyes Gift to travel quickly in the forest. He was traveling alone in the forest, and he was like a fish that returned to the sea. He could do everything he wanted and he felt like he returned to Tailun Continent’s Terras Forest. He felt like he regained his past life where he roamed the forest alone.

Birds could fly freely in the sky and fish could swim freely in the ocean!

The speed of Yang Ling, who didn’t have any burden, only got higher, and he streaked in the air like a shooting star. After he became a Mid-Level Soul Wizard, he got a great advantage when it came to speed, and he revealed it thoroughly. He ran into many Magical Beasts in the way, but they would usually lose sight of him before they could respond.

After he became a Mid-Level Soul Wizard, his Tree Eyes Innate Gift also evolved, and its detection scope turned higher. Even if he closed his eyes and didn’t release his Divine Consciousness or Horned Bee Beasts to explore the road, he could still clearly detect even the wind blowing at the grass within a perimeter of tens miles.

The large trees emitted cordial ripples and they welcomed a treeman’s arrival. The short shrub described the vicinity’s terrain to him, and the blooming flowers revealed their beauties. Even the delicate Wheat Grass bowed and welcomed his arrival.

Yang Ling entered unknowingly a mysterious state. His mind got clear and bright. He opened his heart to the plants in the way and observed with his senses their Soul Ripples. He also absorbed the forest’s dense green Life Energy, and his body gradually got more transparent as if he started fusing with the world, while a large mass of green mist swept the forest.

Everywhere he passed by, the plants’ rustling noise would echo out and it seemed like they were welcoming the arrival of the Forest’s king. If Yang Ling opened his eyes to take a look, he would discover that a long trail of green mist was left behind him, and it attracted many Magical Beasts. Those Magical Beasts rushed over and started devouring the mist ravenously.

“Huh? What is the matter? Could it be that the Life Plane’s old b*stards also come over personally to join in the fun?”

An old man clad in a scarlet robe appeared strangely in the air, and he looked at the green mist in the forest, which encompassed a thousand miles. The mist didn’t disappear even after a long time, and the old man furrowed his brows upon seeing this. The scarlet sharp sword in his hand was vibrating, and if Yang Ling opened his eyes and turned his head around to take a look, he would discover that this guy resembled the Manor Lord’s statue within Astonvela Manor.

Even Algernon Divine Branch’s Dio didn’t dare to provoke him, and this was a peerless powerhouse that practiced in seclusion in the Graveyard of Gods and Devils for innumerable years. Vela Aston appeared quietly in the forest, and he observed the green mist that didn’t scatter even after a long time. He muttered to himself irresolutely for a moment before he left quickly without leaving any trails behind him.
