Before leaving the Golden Bamboo City, Kent decided to meet the elders who helped him.
On the top of Healing Sun Peak, Near the healing tower…
Ahead of him, peak master Shreya, stood with a smiling face. “The sect will always remember your contributions, Kent. And should you ever need a place to return to, Healing Sun Peak will welcome you with open arms.”
Kent bowed in return. “Thank you, Peak Master. I won’t forget this place. Please accept this myriad healing manual for my satisfaction.”
Peak Master Shreya’s eyes flowed after seeing the manual, she hurriedly picked it up and thanked Kent with cheerful smiles.
From there, he made his way to the Beast Abode Peak, where the Peak Master Leona waited. A grizzled woman with a powerful aura, Leona gave Kent a toothy grin as he approached.
“So, you’re really leaving, huh?” Leona asked, crossing her arms before broad chest. “Can’t say I’m not proud, but you should focus more on the beast taming. Remember That!.”
Kent chuckled, pulling out a jade slip and a few shining beast cores. “I leave these with you, Master Leona. These manuals are filled with techniques that will help the disciples of Beast Abode. And these beast cores should be used wisely. They’ll help strengthen your bonds with the divine beasts.”
Leona took the items with a solemn expression. “I’ll make sure these don’t go to waste. But don’t think I’m not holding you to your promise, kid. You better come back someday. Also, you have received several mythical beast pets during war god blessing. Take good care of them.”
“I will,” Kent promised, a small smile tugging at his lips.
After leaving the beast abode Peak, Kent went to meet his master Porus who was already waiting for Kent.
Before Kent said anything, Porus took out a spirit ring and passed it to Kent.
“Master, I already have countless treasures and wealth with me. Why are you giving me more?” Kent asked in a helpless tone.
Porus smiled and replied, “The storage ring also contains several precious wine bottles and spiritual fruits. I hope you will achieve greater heights in future.”
After exchanging few more words, Kent placed “Blazing Hell Arts” manual in Porus hands and took his leave with a heavy heart.
Finally, he ascended his golden throne, where his companions awaited. His girlfriends and pets were already gathered, the baby dragon flapping around excitedly, releasing playful bursts of flame that caused Jabil to stumble and laugh.
The phoenix lady Ruby, who failed to befriend the dragon and Jabil, stood beside Kavi, the Fire Kirin, trying her best to bond with her.
The throne hovered in the sky above the Eternal Sun Sect, and Kent took a long, final look at the golden bamboo city. Memories rushed through his mind—of battles fought and the experiences that had shaped him. This city had become a part of his journey, and though he didn’t know when he would return, he knew it had left an indelible mark on him.
With a deep breath, Kent gave the silent command, and the golden throne began to move, cutting through the clouds like a streak of light. The cities below became a blur of landscapes as they traveled toward their next destination, leaving the golden bamboo city behind.

At the Blue Planet’s Heavenly Abode, the 7th realm’s magic castle loomed near the Inter-Realm teleportation channel.
The 7,000 disciples were scattered within castle chambers, their training and cultivation briefly paused as they awaited further instructions. None of them truly understood why they were staying on the Blue Planet, even after the conclusion of the Immortal Beast Spirit Gathering.
Lily, the one in charge of these disciples, sat atop the castle’s highest roof, her legs dangling off the edge. The cool breeze lifted her hair as she gazed out into the horizon, her heart beating in anticipation.
The man she had been waiting for would arrive any day now, and yet, the wait felt anxious.
A soft footstep behind her broke her thoughts. Thea approached, carrying a jug of local spirit wine.
“Still thinking?” Thea asked, offering Lily the wine.
Lily took the jug, but only held it in her hands. “I can’t help it,” she admitted.
Thea smiled knowingly. “You worry too much. At most, one more day and he’ll be here. Just relax.”
Lily shook her head, sighing as she gazed down at the sprawling landscape below. “It’s not just about him coming back, Thea. I’m thinking about how our mother will react.” She glanced sideways at Thea. “You know how extreme the other 32 branch families can be. I brought an outsider as my partner… It won’t be easy for them to accept him.”
Thea laughed softly, leaning back on her palms. “You’re not bringing just any outsider, Lily. He is the legacy bearer of the War God. Do you think anyone would dare question your choice? People will bow before him. He’s not just some mortal.
He’s destined for greatness.”
Lily’s lips quirked into a small smile. “You make it sound so easy.”
“That’s because it is… Once they see him, everything will change.” Thea replied, her tone playful but confident.
Lily’s brows furrowed as she pondered this. “Isn’t Kent the second person to ever come to the Seventh Realm from this planet?”
Thea hesitated, her expression faltering slightly. “Maybe. I don’t know for sure.” Her voice held a hint of uncertainty.
Lily hummed in thought, her fingers tapping against the wine jug. “If not for that traitorous woman who married our patriarch the first time, our relations with this planet would’ve been much smoother.”
Thea stiffened at the mention of the traitor, quickly diverting the topic. “Let’s not dwell on the past, sister. What’s important is that no one should find out that you brought an acting husband. Once the Lin family breaks the marriage, our task is finished.
“You’re right. I just hope Mother won’t be too disappointed.” Lily replied with a heavy sigh.
“Stop worrying unnecessarily.” Thea said while pushing Lily to drink wine.
Lily, who didn’t know about the trap set by her own sister, happily drank wine.
