Wang Mang stepped forward and cautiously asked, "Shall we set off now, or..."

Xiao Xuan did not answer, but instead walked straight out.

In Wang Mang's eyes, this scene showed a young man heartbroken, his back turned in resolute determination.

Fortunately, Xiao Xuan was unaware of Wang Mang's thoughts; otherwise, he could only have told him, "Young man, you're overthinking things."

After stepping out of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion, Xiao Yue handed Xiao Xuan a specially made storage bag that could be used by ordinary people.

Xiao Yue: "It contains the marriage contract and a token left behind by the Crimson Cloud Sect. You can present it to Sect Leader Song."

Xiao Xuan reached out and took it, nodded, and walked past Xiao Yue without looking back.

He had long anticipated this day.

It's just that it's a little earlier than expected.

Tianji Pavilion Viewing Platform

Xiao Ce walked calmly, step by step, onto the observation platform. He knelt down before the sacrificial cauldron, holding a bright yellow seventh-rank severance talisman between his two fingers, and muttered incantations.

A moment later, the bright yellow severance talisman spontaneously combusted without fire, turning into a wisp of golden smoke that rose into the sky and disappeared.

Xiao Ce felt a sense of relief wash over him, and a faint smile appeared on his lips. This meant that Heaven had approved his request to sever ties with his family.

Xiao Ce calmly read aloud, "Heaven above, from now on, my third son Xiao Xuan has no further connection with the Xiao family."

At the same time, the disciples of the Xiao family, including Xiao Yun, Xiao Feng, and Xiao Yue, all felt something.

Xiao Xuan, who had just reached the foot of the mountain, paused slightly.

A single tear rolled down her cheek.

It slid down the boy's delicate, fair cheek, gathered into a bead on his small chin, dripped to the ground, and disappeared.

Xiao Xuan: "Little Six, tell me, am I destined to be a lone star? In both my lives, I was destined to be an orphan."

A jumble of random characters flashed through System 006's mind.

System 006: "Sorry, host, 006 is unaware."

Xiao Xuan: "It's alright, it's all in the past."

For some reason, System 006 felt that it could detect a deep sadness in the host's calm and indifferent thoughts.

Sadness mingled with helplessness, helplessness with a touch of nonchalance, nonchalance with a sense of relief, and relief with a hint of liberation...

Xiao Xuan calmed himself down, stopped, and turned to look at Wang Mang.

Wang Mang looked bewildered and asked, puzzled, "What's wrong?"

Xiao Xuan: "Little Six, why isn't he using his sword?"

System 006: "Sorry, host, 006 is unaware."

Xiao Xuan shifted his gaze to the black broadsword in Wang Mang's hand.

Wang Mang quickly shook his head and said with a simple smile, "If you can't carry this, I can carry it myself."

Xiao Xuan: "..."

Helpless, Xiao Xuan had no choice but to turn around and continue walking forward.

Soon, the two returned to Mo Hui City.

Xiao Xuan stopped again and looked at Wang Mang.

This time, Wang Mang finally showed some intelligence.

Wang Mang asked somewhat embarrassedly, "Um, do you have any spirit stones?"

"Let's take the teleportation array there."

Xiao Xuan handed the money pouch he was carrying to Wang Mang. Inside lay ten low-grade spirit stones, his monthly allowance that he had just received.

The cost is only enough to transport one person, and that's with the discounted price for someone using the Crimson Cloud Sect disciple status.

Wang Mang rummaged through his storage bag and found only a second-grade spirit-replenishing pill, worth twenty low-grade spirit stones.

Although he was a little reluctant, he felt embarrassed to ask Xiao Xuan to walk back with him.

He was both a body cultivator and a cultivator, and it took him a month to travel all the way from the Crimson Cloud Sect. He didn't feel anything was wrong with it, just treating it as a body tempering exercise.

However, Xiao Xuan is thin and frail, and is just an ordinary mortal; he probably wouldn't be able to endure that hardship.

Xiao Xuan followed Wang Mang to the center of Mo Hui City, handed over a second-grade spirit-replenishing pill and ten low-grade spirit stones, and then entered the teleportation array.

Xiao Xuan felt a sudden dizziness, and the next moment, he found himself in an unfamiliar town.

Despite his physical discomfort, Xiao Xuan followed Wang Mang, feeling dizzy and unsteady. After a few steps, Wang Mang realized that Xiao Xuan had fallen behind. He turned around and saw Xiao Xuan leaning against the door frame, his face ashen.

He then remembered that ordinary people would experience dizziness as a side effect when sitting on a teleportation array.

Wang Mang quickly went over to help Xiao Xuan, looking remorseful, and asked with concern, "How are you? Are you alright?"

Xiao Xuan shook his head slightly, but the movement made him feel even more dizzy, and he stiffened up, afraid to move any further.

Seeing this, Wang Mang knew that he was uncomfortable.

He turned his back and said, "I'll carry you on my back."

"Once we leave the city, we'll find a cave to rest in for the night."

Looking at the person squatting in front of him, Xiao Xuan thought to himself, "This big oaf isn't such a bad person after all."

It should be understood that in the eyes of many cultivators, mortals are like ants, not to mention bending down to carry them, they would not even deign to glance at them.

Xiao Xuan didn't make things difficult for himself. He was indeed feeling very unwell, so he climbed onto Wang Mang's back and let the other carry him out of the city.

Wang Mang possessed exceptional survival skills in the wild, and soon found a cave in the mountains and forests near Qingyue City.

By the time he put the person down from his back, Xiao Xuan had already fallen asleep.

It wasn't because he was too tired or uncomfortable and fell asleep, but because he heard a system notification that his lottery chance was about to expire.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xuan became excited and immediately pressed the red extraction button in his mind.

I had just clicked the button and hadn't even had a chance to see what I'd drawn when I fainted.
