Chapter 146: Universal Truth and Math

The Peak Master forced herself to suppress the buried memories that stirred within her, then steadied her mind.

Yu Xuan glanced at his medallion. Far more time had passed than he expected. What he thought would be a few hours had turned into an entire day of cultivation since his breakthrough.

"Master, during these three months of grace you have granted me, I wanted to visit my sister... and then my friends," he said respectfully.

"You are free to go. Oh, but I just realized, you never mentioned which peak your sister belongs to," she asked.

"Ah, she’s in the Chaos Heaven Peak," Yu Xuan replied casually.

The Peak Master froze, then smacked her forehead.

"Why didn’t you tell me this earlier?" she demanded.

"I thought it wasn’t that important," Yu Xuan said innocently.

"Hu... It’s just that Chaos Heaven Peak houses not only chaos techniques and many others but also many unorthodox cultivators. I only hope your sister doesn’t pick up anything... strange along the way."

"What? I thought only chaos techniques were practiced there as the peak’s name suggested?" Yu Xuan frowned.

"They are not just limited to Chaos techniques, but that peak also gathers some of the most erratic people in the sect," she sighed.

Yu Xuan’s heart sank. Now he felt even more concerned for his sister’s well-being. He needed to see her as soon as possible.

"Well then," he said firmly, "I’ll visit her after stabilizing my new realm. On the way, I’ll also pay visits to the Celestial Heaven Peak, Martial Heaven Peak, Myriad Path Peak, and Order Heaven Peak."

Hearing the list of stops, the Peak Master felt a headache coming on. Still, she said, "If you run into any trouble, just say you are my disciple or contact me directly."

With a wave of her hand, Yu Xuan’s medallion suddenly glowed. When he checked it, his eyes widened in shock.

His heart nearly burst with gratitude. He wanted to shout out his love for his master, but restrained himself. Instead, he bowed deeply and said, "Thank you, Master."

"Before you leave, come see me once more. Now, you are excused."

With another wave of her hand, the two of them appeared back in her palace.

Yu Xuan gave a final bow before descending the mountain toward his residence.

Upon arriving, he went straight to take a bath. Though it was already morning and he had spent an entire day cultivating since his breakthrough, his spirit felt invigorated.

Still, the warm water washed away the lingering fatigue, and even if his body remained unsullied thanks to its unique purity, the comfort of cleansing himself was undeniable.

After changing into fresh robes, he briefly wondered when his enhanced unbreakable robe — crafted to survive from Core Formation experts, would arrive. Deciding not to delay, he sent a message to Ke to check on its progress.

Then, with a softer expression, he composed a message for his sister. He had no intention of keeping his plans hidden from her.

[Yu Xuan: Sister, I’ll probably come visit you within this month.]

He lingered with the medallion in hand, waiting for her reply.

To pass the time, he wandered toward his cultivation spot. There, he noticed the grass in certain patches had grown unnaturally lush, almost glowing with vitality. He crouched down, inspecting carefully, half hoping for some hidden treasure.

Finding nothing unusual, he sighed.

"Maybe someone poured fertilizer," he muttered with a faint smile, joking to himself before preparing to stabilize his realm.

Just then, his medallion pulsed. A message appeared.

[Greatest In The Heaven: I miss you so much, Yuan’er. Come quickly.]

The words struck him like a gentle arrow to the heart.

Yu Xuan’s lips curved into an unconscious smile, his chest warming with rare tenderness. In this vast and often merciless cultivation world, his sister remained the one of the bonds he cherished most.

With that thought, he sat down cross-legged, closing his eyes, and began his cultivation with renewed determination. He swore when he closed his eyes, he saw a bald man named Vin Petrol saying, "Everything for family."

In the lofty mountains of Chaos Heaven Peak, where not fighting was considered suspicious behavior and dueling over who stole whose cultivation resources was a daily warm up routine... fights were unfolding as usual.

Today was yet another normal day.

A man in a sleek black suit, face serious like he was at a funeral, stood nose to nose with a white haired young master whose ridiculous hairstyle looked exactly like a chef’s hat flipped upside down.

[A/N: Check Chapter 4 comments, you will really like the reference.]

"How dare you hit my dog!" the suited man barked.

The white haired young master scoffed. "I am the Peng Clan’s Young Master! How dare your mangy mutt block my path? Wasn’t that mutt just courting death?!"

When he said that, immediatelly flattery arrived like background support, from his lackeys.

"Young Master is glorious!"

"Young Master’s way must be kept clear!"

"Young Master’s hair... is so shiny and white!"

"...Who?" Peng Clan’s Young Master froze, glaring.

"Who said that last one?!" His lackeys went silent, some subtly tucking away combs.

"Ahem. Anyway, I hit your dog. What of it?" he continued proudly.

The suited man narrowed his eyes. "Remember my name... Jo Han Strong, when you arrive at underworld, ask King Yama for my legend."

With a dramatic flourish, he pulled something long and metallic from his pants.

The surrounding audience collectively sucked in a breath. Was that a... spear?

Peng Clan’s Young Master blanched. "Wh–where did you even pull that from?! If that thing touches me, I’ll have to bathe for five days straight!"

Without hesitation, he shoved his trembling lackeys forward. "Go! Block him! That’s what you’re here for. I am a Young Master – dealing with normal objects that come out of pants is beneath me!"

"B-But young master, your reputation." the lackey said trembling.

"What reputation, my reputation is infinite even if you add or subtract some, it will remain beyond normal person’s reach." Peng Clan’s Young Master said the universal truth.
