Everything stayed the same in the Shi family, and nothing was changed. Even though it was the strongest force in the Sky Meteor City, the Shi family maintained their original simplicity. They didnât build any luxurious buildings or gardens on a grand scale to please their eyes.
Slowly descending on the courtyard of the Shi family, Shi Yan frowned while watching here and there. He found that the number of the Shi family members here was bigger than what he had imagined.
âYoung, young master Yan!â
The familiar voice came out from a corner. They then saw an overjoyed man rushing out.
This man used to be Shi Yanâs buddy. However, after ten years of arduous cultivation, he still stayed at the Disaster Realm, and didnât make any step further.
âLong time no see,â Shi Yan smiled, seeing someone familiar indeed made him joyful. âHey dude, you have no progress at all. Why are you still at the Disaster Realm? Havenât you wasted these ten years?â
âIâm not a freak like you, buddy.â Han Zhong was cheerful. Looking at the Shura Blood Guards and the Star God Guards following Shi Yan, his smile widened. âI didnât expect that you would come back at this moment. Itâs good then.â
Ye Meng, Di Shan, and Yu Rou landed with their beasts, observing the small manor. They were surprised in thinking that this house was the fortunate land that their master was born in.
Many warriors of the Shi family saw so many strange people coming, and were surprised, walking out from their cultivating places to see.
Members of the Shi family who used to meet Shi Yan before couldnât hide their amazed faces, dashing towards the group. Shi Dang, Shi Tian Ling, and Shi Tian Luo couldnât press down their surprise, shrieking in extreme joy.
âWhereâs my grandpa?â Shi Yan frowned. As he didnât see Shi Jian and Shi Tie, he couldnât hide his worry.
âThey went to the Zuoâs. I think they should be back soon.â Shi Dang took a step forward while his eyes brightened. All of a sudden, he cried, âWhat realm are you at now?â
The Shi family members screamed in awe, their faces shaken.
Ten years ago, when Shi Yan left the Sky Meteor City, he was only at the Disaster Realm. This time when he came back, he had the Sky Realm cultivation base. Such a progress was something no one dared to picture.
âHow is the situation here?â Shi Yan asked while frowning, âWhen I flew across the adjacent cities, I saw a lot of warriors of the Raging Fire Empire and the God-blessed Empire. Have they entered the Merchant Union?â
âThey have,â Shi Dang beamed a forced smile and then sighed. âAfter the Beiming family, the Mo family and the Ling family were uprooted, the general competence of the Merchant Union hasnât been as strong as before. We canât resist the Raging Fire Empire and the God-blessed Empire. These two empires are like tigers watching their prey. They want to take our Merchant Union,â explained Shi Dang.
It wasnât much different from what Shi Yan had guessed. The two empires had tightened their clamp. In the beginning, they had watched over each other as they were afraid that if they took action, they would force the Merchant Union to find another place for shelter. Thatâs why they were treating them tenderly.
However, after the two empires had received denial many times from the Shi family and the Zuo family, the Raging Fire Empire and the God-blessed Empire gradually lost their patience. Under the trigger from the mediator of the Medicine Valley, the Raging Fire Empire and the God-blessed Empire worked together, preparing to split the Merchant Union, making it the battlefield where they would find out who was the ultimate winner.
When the Raging Fire Empire and the God-blessed Empire joined hands, it meant the Merchant Unionâs fate was decided.
The Merchant Unionâs overall competence wasnât able to deal with any force. At the moment, it was under the clamp of two forces from two sides. In addition, many small forces of the Merchant Union started to rebel. They surrendered to these two empires, which put the Shi family and the Zuo family into isolation.
The two great empires didnât take action yet, as they were using the tactic of invading the Merchant Union step by step. They would put their hands on the surrounding cities first. Then, they would push over to force the Merchant Union. Thatâs how they could take the Merchant Union without destroying it.
âThe Medicine Valley works as a mediator,â Shi Yan snorted coldly while his eyes darkened. âOh right, now that I am here, we can have a chance to uproot the rebellious small forces.â
âShi Yan, this time you come hereâŚâ
âI want to bring you to the Endless Sea. The whole situation there is settled now. You donât need to worry about anything when you come there. Iâve arranged everything well.â Shi Yan smiled and explained to them. âThe Endless Seaâs a better place for you to cultivate. The warriors there have richer cultivating materials, much more than the Quiet Cloud. They have more hotshots with amazing martial techniques. Theyâre one grade higher than the Quiet Cloud.â
The Shi family had their eyes brightened, and their faces excited.
âThe Endless Sea,â muttered Shi Dang. His mouth opened in a joyful smile.
âFirst, Iâll help you guys deal with these troubles.â
Waving his hand, Shi Yan signaled Di Shan and the others to come forward. âDi Shan, Ye Meng, you guys take the Shura Blood Guards and the Star God Guards to the Raging Fire Empire and the God-blessed Empire. Kill all the warriors whose cultivation bases are higher than the Nirvana Realm. Oh, yeah, remember to visit the Medicine Valley, too.â
Di Shan and Ye Meng bent their bodies, answering him.
The Shura Blood Guards and the Star God Guards also regarded Shi Yan upon his order. Then, Di Shan and Yu Rou took the Shura Blood Guards, while Ye Meng, and Ka Ba went with the Star God Guards. They both rode the beasts, and after they had adjusted the formation, they waited for Shi Yanâs order.
âIf thereâre Nirvana Realm warriors in the adjacent cities, kill them all.â Shi Yan mused and then said, âDonât mind the warriors lower than Nirvana Realm. The bosses are the ones who have the highest realms. Just kill them. Now go!â
Di Shan and the others put on serious expressions, then nodded to show that they understood.
In just a blink, Shura Blood Guard and the Star God Guards disappeared.
Shi Dang, Shi Tian Ling and Han Zhong dropped their jaws, their eyes wide-opened.
âShi Yan, the Raging Fire Empire and the God-blessed Empire have the Third Sky of Sky Realm warriors,â Shi Dangâs face was complicated, âAre we taking risks?â
âThird Sky of Sky Realm warriors?â Shi Yan just smiled, shaking his head. âDonât worry. Warriors at this realm canât even defend themselves in front of our force.â
âWhat realm those people have?â Shi Dang was surprised, his whole body shaken.
âSpirit Realm,â Shi Yan curled his lips. âFive Spirit Realm warriors taking action at the same time, no need to mention the Raging Fire Empire and the God-blessed Empire, even if they are in the Endless Sea, how many forces could resist them?â
People of the Shi family was dumbfounded, looking at him like they were looking at a monster.
It was just ten years. Not only had Shi Yan reached the Sky Realm, he also could invite the five Spirit Realm warriors to come with him. From their attitude towards him, it seemed like he was the boss here, having the absolute power over those five people.
It was so strange that the Shi familyâs members couldnât even think it through.
Shi Yan smiled, but didnât attempt to explain to them.
At this moment, no warrior of the Quiet Cloud could compare to him. The strong warriors who, in their eyes, they could never reach, were so fragile to him that he could smash them at any minute. Since the gap between their realms was too wide, communicating was actually a problem.
If he told them that he could change the wind and stir the rain in the Endless Sea, making the warriors on the sea and on the seabed bow to respect him, he didnât know how they would think about him.
âYou guys should prepare. After weâre done, weâll be getting back to the Endless Sea together.â Musing for a while, he then spoke up to Shi Dang. â Thereâs nothing to linger or regret in the God-blessed Empire. Wait until you come to Endless Sea, youâll soon find what the Merchant Union has, the Endless Sea has the same. Things that the Merchant Union doesnât have, Endless Sea has them all. Yeah, Iâve prepared the cultivating materials for you guys. Donât worry about that. After we get there, youâll have everything you need.â
Shi Dang didnât know what to say.
âHaha!â Loud laughter came from afar along with a group of warriors. âStinky boy, itâs just been ten years, and we canât even recognize you.â
Shi Jian, Shi Tie, Zuo Xu, Zuo Shi, Yang Hai and the others emerged. Shi Jian was laughing cheerily while, shouting. âBrother Zuo, youâre right. This kidâs changed too much.â
âAs I saw the beasts pack the sky, I knew that this kid Shi Yan was back. Besides him, who could make such noisy moves?â Zuo Xu smiled. âI knew he wonât forget us, and that he will come for us. Haha.â
âGrandfather,â Shi Yan revealed real joy, went forward while slightly bending his body to greet them. Then, he shifted his eyes to Yang Hai. âFather.â
âThis time, I come back with the hope to bring you guys to the Endless Sea. We shouldnât stay in the Quiet Cloud any longer.â
He explained his plan again.
Shi Jian replied him briefly. âSince brother Zuo told us about the rich world out there, weâve prepared for our departure to the Endless Sea one day. Weâve been fully prepared since half a year ago. Even if you didnât come, after a while, we would have moved.â
âIf you had gone there half a year ago, entering the Endless Sea would have been risky and troublesome.â Shi Yan smiled. âHowever, itâs no problem now. The situation of the Endless Sea is steadied. Come with me, Iâll have everything arranged sufficiently. As weâre well prepared, we donât need to worry anymore.â
âEven the cultivating materials are collected?â

âArgh. At present, the things I donât lack the most are the medicines, pellets, ores or crystals to cultivate. Itâs true that I have everything you guys may need.â
The others all wore a disbelieving face.
âDonât worry. After you get there, youâll see that Iâm not lying. Things you can think about, I can always provide. Actually, you can trash away the things you have here. They arenât valuable.â
They didnât know what to say.
