Start by logging into the Old Man's Ring at Hogwarts

Zicomo took out a golden cup to collect the dew, and then drank it all in one gulp.

To his surprise, the spatial affinity also worked on him.

After drinking the dew, Zicomo tried Apparition.

He found that he had improved his speed in using Apparition, and that it consumed less energy.

This was the first time since he became a god that a drop of dew had any effect on him.

As expected of the Fusang Divine Tree from Eastern mythology, it truly has its unique features.

After dealing with the hibiscus tree, Zicomo then adjusted the overall terrain of the "Zen Garden".

As for the Phoenix Clan's territory, Zicomo did not touch it.

He said he wouldn't restrict the phoenix clan; Zicomo was already content to let these phoenixes live in his "Zen Garden."

At this moment, Huang Xi also returned.

"Have you appeased your people?" Zikomo asked her.

"Yes, she's been calmed down." Huang Xi nodded.

At first, her people were dissatisfied because Zikomo had taken away their blessed land.

As a result, after she finished explaining Zikomo's attitude towards the Phoenix Clan, they accepted it.

After Huang Xi finished answering him, Qi Kemo looked like he wanted to say something but hesitated.

Somewhat curiously, she asked, "Huang Xi, is there something you need?"

"Um, could I move my nest to this tree... Hey! How did it grow so tall?"

Huang Xi was somewhat surprised. When she left, the golden tree was only a dozen meters tall. How could it have grown to several hundred meters now?

“My tree is a bit special; it can absorb special powers or essences to grow,” Zicomo explained. “I just extracted the essence of the hibiscus tree and fed it to it, and then it grew this tall.”

"What? What about the golden crow eggs up there? Did this tree swallow them too?" Huang Xi asked anxiously.

She had promised the chief of the Golden Crow clan that she would take good care of his child.

"Don't worry, the golden crow egg is over there."

Zicomo pointed to the Golden Crow Egg, which was placed alone with the Immortal Tree not far away, and then said, "I brought it out along with the Immortal Tree and the entire formation."

Huang Xi turned her head and saw that the Golden Crow Egg was intact, and breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing this, Zicomo picked up where she left off: "It's fine if you want to build a nest in the golden tree, but I don't recommend that you live there permanently."

The area surrounding the Golden Tree is constantly operating at maximum time speed. You could stay inside for hundreds of days, while only a few days would pass outside. While your Phoenix clan doesn't care about time consumption, there's no need to waste it in a place like this.”

Upon hearing this, Huang Xi abandoned her idea of ​​moving her nest to the golden tree.

However, she still plans to build a new second nest on the golden tree.

After its rebirth, the phoenix experiences a period of weakness before regaining its peak strength.

Using this time difference to shorten the period of weakness is a good option for Huang Xi.

After telling Qi Kemo her idea, Huang Xi went to build her second nest.

…………

Because the "Zen Garden" incorporates elements of a grotto-heaven, Zicomo spent the next two days inspecting the changes to the "Zen Garden".

And from time to time, make minor adjustments to the terrain and certain local environments.

In order to make the "Zen Garden" look more natural and beautiful as a whole.

Huang Xi was busy building her second nest. After seeing Qi Kemo's modern villa in the "Zen Garden", she had many new ideas.

Huo Xuan then plunged into Zikomo's herb garden, carrying several of Zikomo's herb books. She compared the unfamiliar foreign herbs to those she had never seen before, pondering what kind of elixirs they could be used to refine.

Hermione and Lani didn't have anywhere they wanted to go, so the two of them stayed at the villa to study Taoist culture.

Hermione wanted to acquire this knowledge as soon as possible so she could learn the magical spells of the Shu Mountains.

She couldn't accept the idea of ​​letting a huge amount of knowledge go unlearned.

As for Lani, it was because she didn't want to lose to Hermione, and she was also quite interested in this system that was different from magic.

At this point, Zicomo's journey to the East had effectively come to a perfect end.

It's already August 24th, and there's only one week left before school starts. It's time for them to go home.

So after tidying up the "Zen Garden", Zicomo said goodbye to Huoxuan.

Huang Xi has already moved into his "Zen Garden", so the only one who truly needs to part ways is Huo Xuan.

"How about I go to England with you guys?" Huo Xuan said reluctantly.

The two months she spent with Zikomo and the others were more wonderful than the decades she lived in Shushan.

Huo Xuan was reluctant to end her trip like this.

Zicomo shrugged and said, "I don't care, as long as you're not afraid that Master Daoxuan will chase you all the way to England and bring you back."

Given how much Huo Xuan treasures in Shu Mountain, it's likely that all the disciples and elders of Shu Mountain will come out in force. If that happens, it would be a mild situation for Shu Mountain to fight the British Ministry of Magic.

Chapter 195 End of the Journey, Snape Arrives

Huo Xuan was clearly aware of the potential consequences of going to England alone, so he didn't mention the idea of ​​returning to England with Zicomo and the others.

The thought of returning to the desolate Shu Mountain sect made Huo Xuan feel very depressed.

Without Zicomo and the others, she wouldn't have anyone to hang out with in the future.

Seeing Huo Xuan's downcast expression, Zicomo comforted him, "We're only separated for now, it's not like we'll never see each other again. There's no need for you to be so disappointed."

Besides, doesn't Kunlun have an entrance to the 'Zen Garden'? You can find us anytime through that entrance.

Huo Xuan rolled his eyes and said, "You know perfectly well that I always have two elders accompanying me when I leave the mountain. How could I possibly have the chance to act alone?"

Since Huo Xuan came out alone this time, Zicomo almost forgot about that.

However, there are solutions.

Zicomo took out the key to the "Zen Garden" and placed a mark on Huo Xuan's arm.

Huo Xuan did not resist Qi Kemo's actions, but asked with some curiosity, "What is this?"

“This is the spatial imprint of the ‘Zen Garden.’ With this imprint, you can freely enter and exit the ‘Zen Garden.’ However, only one person can enter at a time; you cannot bring people or living creatures with you,” Zicomo explained.

Huo Xuan touched the mark on his arm, and his whole body regained its former vitality.

She said excitedly, "This is great, I love it! You should have brought it out sooner."

“This is related to my ‘Zen Garden.’ Most of my assets are in the garden, so how can I give it away so easily? I’ve only given this mark to Hermione and Lani so far, so you should be grateful that I can give you one.”

Zicomo rolled his eyes at Huo Xuan in annoyance.

"Oh? So this is your woman?" Huo Xuan teased.

"Where did you get that conclusion from?" Zicomo said helplessly.

"Look, you yourself said that this spatial mark was only given to Hermione and Lani. They are both your women. Now you've given me a mark. Doesn't that mean you consider me your woman too?"

Huo Xuan's words sounded reasonable and even made some sense at first glance, but in reality, they were all fallacies.

Having spent time together, Zicomo knew that if he continued to follow this woman's train of thought, he would be the one to suffer in the end.

So he cut to the chase: "If you don't want it, I can take the mark back."

Upon hearing this, Huo Xuan immediately dropped his teasing demeanor.

"Ahem, never mind what I said. Let's go quickly."

They have just left the "Zen Garden" and are heading towards Mount Shu.

Huo Xuan had come out with them after all, and Qi Kemo, having earned the title of a guest elder of Shu Mountain, still had to ensure her safe return.

There was no need to stop in the cities along the way on the way back to Mount Shu, so Zicomo took out his flying carpet and planned to fly all the way back.

Since they were in the sky and wouldn't be discovered, Zikomo also released Laya and Ifrit, letting them also enjoy the beautiful scenery of the ancient Eastern country.

After flying for several hours, the group arrived at the small Taoist temple at the entrance to Mount Shu.

"Let's say goodbye here!" Huo Xuan said with a heavy expression.

“Why such a heavy tone? It’s not like we’ll never see each other again,” Zicomo said helplessly.

He was certain that Huo Xuan would appear in his "Zen Garden" within a day.

Ever since she learned that she could enter the "Zen Garden" at any time, she had Zicomo reserve a room for her in the villa.

Then Huo Xuan threw all her tools for refining weapons and alchemy into the room, saying that there was no more comfortable working environment than this.

"Alright, enough fooling around. I'm heading back now, I'll come find you guys again tomorrow." Huo Xuan's previously serious expression vanished, replaced by a smile as he said, "By the way, I haven't asked you how you're getting back yet."

“See you tomorrow then,” Zicomo said. “As for how to get back, it’s very simple, just do this.”

With that, Zicomo raised his left hand, snapped his fingers, and Apparated away from the spot.

Huo Xuan stared at the spot where Qi Kemo and the others had disappeared, and cursed, "Damn it! Being strong means you can do whatever you want!"

England, the Granger family home.
