Wu Xiaotian, given the freedom to do anything he wants inside the flying boat, decided to roam around and inspect the runes engraved on the wall of the place.
As he explores and studies them, he starts getting more and more clear of the idea that the runes engraved in the walls are an inferior version of the runes he’s studying inside the [Rune Observation Platform] making him wonder just where the runes in the [Rune Observation Platform], as even those runes in the secret realm pales in comparison to them. ƒгeewёbnovel.com
‘Just what kind of existence is my system?’ he wonders to himself for a while before getting pulled back to reality by a familiar loud voice approaching from the distance.
“Brats, we’re about to arrive, for the first timers here, brace yourself as our Heavenly Secret City is quite the sight especially at night” as he walks all around trying to get the attention of the people in the flying boat, Hua Jingxian proudly said before he snaps his hands, making the floor of the entire floating board transparent to them, allowing all the people on board to witness the marvel that is Heavenly Secret City.
With a lively atmosphere in it, the city seems to be an even more developed version of the Thousand Roads City, with proper highways, a clearly planned layout, and structures with awe inspiring designs and clever yet improved variations that will put modern buildings to shame.
Moving towards the center of said city, the group witnessed the scene of a vigorous night life, with people moving here and there, exploring all sorts of establishments, some coming out with bringing out things with them, while some entering with things in them but leaving without it.
As they tread the path towards the center of the city, the eventually noticed that unlike any other place in the continent, there’s no such thing as a higher or inner part of the city here, as if the entire place is one solid place specifically for commerce, the roads pointing towards all the cardinal and ordinal directions the only thing that’s dividing the city, Ling Feng interrupting the silence as he points towards a specific area to Wu Xiaotian.
“Hey Su Tian, look over there, that’s the─” before the amiable-looking young man finished his sentence though, he was cut short as Hua Xian’er stare daggers at him, causing sold sweat to fill his back as terror reigns in his mind.
“Haha, lil bro, just ignore cousin’s word, there’s nothing good that’s going to come out of it” Hua Xian’er said as she stepped in between the two young men, looking fiercely at Ling Feng again causing the amiable-looking young man to avert his gaze to anything else.
“Damn it, I’m the friend first, why the hell is it that you act like you’ve known him longer than me?” Ling Feng muttered, Hua Xian’er shutting him up with her reply.
“Because we really know each other for longer time, since we spend longer time together than you do” she said as if it was something to be proud of, the middle-aged man behind her smiling as if he’s scheming something unjust towards her.
“Hehehe, spending long time with each other, there’s really a chance here, I need to tell it to dear once we arrive” Hua Jingxian muttered to himself as his eyes focuses on Wu Xiaotian and Hua Xian’er.
‘It’s a pity he’s quite the womanizer though, whatever, if it means getting my little Xian someone to grow up with, then it’s fine, so long as she’s happy’ he though to himself while watching Hua Xian’er clearly expressing herself so much, something that she never did to other men beside the ones in her family, and even with that, its not as much as she’s doing currently.
As he got out of his mind, he interrupted the people already creating quite the commotion, speaking as he points towards the tower than stood tall and straight right in the middle of the city, with wide road surrounding it from all around, numerous means of transportation going in and out of the large structure.
“We arrived at our destination, brats, this is the headquarters of our Heavenly Secret Tower, a literal tower nearly reaching the heavens, well, it’s quite the exaggeration as it is only reaching a few kilometers in the sky” Hua Jingxian said with a humble tone, but the pride from being a part of such power clearly audible in his voice.
“Still, it is the tallest, not to mention the largest structure in all of the continent, and it’s even larger than the imperial palace in the central province” Ling Feng added proudly as he looks up, trying to see the end of the structure through the naked eye but fails to do so due to the sheer height of the structure.
“Alright alright, enough with the bragging, just bring the boat inside, I’ll personally guide lil bro to an available room” Hua Xian’er calmly and patiently said, her calm demeanor surprising not only Wu Xiaotian and Li Yan who are used to her rough character, but also her family and old friend and they already know her well enough that they are sure this is the first time she acts like this, which makes them move their gaze towards the young man she’s pertaining to.

‘Xian Xian seemingly changed subtly after brother Su gave her that elixir that helps her regain her sight’ Hong Lian thought to herself while looking at the immortal-like young man, the mystery surrounding his entire being appearing like a sweet bait that gradually lures her into an emotion filled trap.
‘Forget about it, let nature take its flow’ she thought to herself as she tries to forget the image of the young man in her mind.
Meanwhile, the two other men aside from Wu Xiaotian were looking at each other, joy filling their eyes as if their long-awaited wish is finally turning into reality.
{Good lord, uncle, isn’t this good news, there’s finally someone who can handle elder sister aside from mother and aunt} Ling Feng exclaimed as he transmits a telepathic message to Hua Jingxian, whose face is already twisted in joy, tears of relief and happiness threatening to overflow from his eyes.
{Indeed, this calls for a good celebration!!!} Hua Jingxian said while looking up in the sky, as if he’s expressing his gratitude to whoever or whatever great existence that sends Wu Xiaotian to them.
While still conversing non-stop due to their excitement, Hua Jingxian eventually controls the flying boat, getting it out of the stealth mode that it is in all this time, causing the people walking below to look at the simple looking flying boat as a hangar opens in the higher floors of the Heavenly Secret Tower, welcoming the arrival of one of one of its highest-level members.
“Alright, I’ll go back and tell your mother everything that happened for now, then I will show my face to the elders for a while, as for you, take your time entertaining your friends” Hua Jingxian said before he immediately disappears from everyone’s sight, leaving only Wu Xiaotian and the girls as Ling Feng already slipped past them unnoticed previously.
