After Elder Tian Min exchanged greetings with Cheng Feng for a few more words, he pointed to the few sect disciples below and asked Li Tianyan, “Tianyan, Xiao Qi, are any of the people who intercepted you back then among them?”

Huang Yu immediately felt bad after hearing this and quietly took a few steps back, but still heard the shuanger’s voice saying, “Yes, it’s the disciple with the yellow hairband.”

Cheng Qi saw the time to settle scores had arrived, so he immediately got ready to confront them. “And the disciple with the blue hairband broke into our villa without permission and stole the spirit gathering formation.”

Several cultivators were all wearing the clothes of Tianfan Immortal Sect, and Cheng Qi could only distinguish them by their different-colored hairbands.

Seeing that he couldn’t escape, Xiao Zhengqing relented and said, “I was just borrowing it. At worst, I just have to pay you with spirit stones.”

“Okay, then it will be calculated as one hundred spirit stones a day. You have borrowed it for three years, and we don’t want the formation anymore. The total should be one hundred thousand spiritual stones,” Cheng Qi nodded readily.

“Don’t go too far. Five spiritual stones a day is too much,” Xiao Zhengqing said angrily when he heard his demand. If he had one hundred thousand spirit stones, why would he need the spirit gathering formation?

“You have already used the things, so of course we have the final say on the price,” Cheng Qi wrinkled his nose and spoke.

“It won’t cost you a hundred thousand to kill me. The total value of the things I have on me is worth at most eight thousand spirit stones,” Xiao Zhengqing said with an ugly face. He just needed to spend money to avoid trouble. As long as he could avoid going to the punishment hall, he could put everything away and give it to them.

“Eight thousand?” Cheng Qi stared at him with disgust, secretly thinking that this guy was really poor.

“Xiao Qi, eight thousand is a lot,” Elder Tian Min said when he saw that Cheng Qi was still hesitant. Eight thousand could indeed be considered the entire wealth of a ninth-level cultivator.

Cheng Qi glanced at Li Tianyan and reluctantly responded when he nodded, “Okay then.”

Elder Cheng Feng saw that they had completed the transaction and then ordered his subordinates, “Bring all these people back.”

“Wait a minute. I have already paid off the spirit stones, why do I still have to go to the punishment hall?” Xiao Zhengqing had just handed over all his possessions, and he couldn’t help but ask anxiously when he saw the people from the punishment hall wanted to arrest him.

“Since you two are clear about the Spirit Gathering Formation, there is no need for further punishment. However, for today’s matter, you have to come back to the punishment hall with me for interrogation,” Cheng Feng replied in a business-like tone.

“Elder, do you want to take Young Master Yan back as well?” Cheng Feng’s subordinate asked hesitantly. Yan Haoyu was a foundation-establishment cultivator and a direct disciple of Elder Chi Zhuo.

“Take him away, and then we’ll interrogate him thoroughly,” Cheng Feng said, knowing if there was not enough evidence, Yan Haoyu would be taken out soon, but he still said it.

Elder Tian Min was already prepared. He took out a white crystal stone and handed it to Cheng Feng. “I have an image stone here. You will know after you see it.”

Cheng Feng was a well-known iron man in the punishment hall. As long as the evidence was too solid, even the elders couldn’t take people out of the punishment hall, which was why Tian Min appointed him to come.

Sure enough, Yan Haoyu’s expression changed when he saw the image stone. He never expected that Elder Tian Min would use such a rare thing for Li Tianyan. “Elder Tian Min, are you really going to do this for a boy of unknown origin? You can’t fight with me for him.”

Elder Tian Min was unmoved. “Li Tianyan took out his disciple badge, but you still refused to stop. It is taboo for Tianfan Immortal Sect to harm your fellow disciples. How can I tolerate you anymore?”

Li Tiancheng was already dumbfounded when he saw Li Tianyan took out a disciple badge.

Now seeing how the inner sect brothers were so afraid of those in the punishment hall, Li Tiancheng became impatient and wanted Li Tianyan to let him go because they still had a trace of blood ties. Unfortunately, no one responded to his call.

After the punishment hall took everyone away, Elder Tian Min looked at the two of them and said, “So, are you ready now?”

After Elder Tian Min finished speaking, a red shadow got into Cheng Qi’s waist. Cheng Qi finally felt relieved when he heard Tan Eyu had safely sent Xiao Liu and Li Wu back home.

Li Tianyan and Cheng Qi looked at each other before nodding to Elder Tian Min. Now that everything was settled, it was indeed time to leave.

When Elder Tian Min saw this, he activated a spaceship magic weapon. The spaceship floated in the air and rose to a length of three feet before stopping. Several people boarded the spaceship one after another. Just when the spaceship was about to start, Li Tianyan suddenly raised his eyebrows and jumped off the spaceship.

.

When Guan Haoran saw the person falling from the sky in front of him, he couldn’t help but open his mouth slightly in surprise, and then smiled and said, “Long time no see, Brother Li.”

Guan Haoran couldn’t hold back his excitement when he heard that Tianfan Immortal Sect’s people were coming, but he was a mortal warrior, unable to even get close to Fenglong Mountain. At this moment, Guan Haoran completely realized that Li Tianyan and he were not on the same pace after all.

Li Tianyan looked at Guan Haoran for a few times and saw that his acquired eighth-level strength had already caught up with many children from martial arts families. It seemed that he had trained quite hard in the past few years. “Young Master Guan has made good progress.”

“It’s all thanks to Brother Li’s blessings.” Guan Haoran had been insisting on taking medicinal baths and practicing martial arts with Li Tianyan’s teachings for these years, and his strength had steadily increased.

Li Tianyan took out two pieces of paper deeds from his arms and handed them back to him. “My wife and I are preparing to leave. I’m afraid there will be no return date in the future. The garden and shop will be handed over to Young Master Guan for safekeeping.”

“Okay.” Guan Haoran glanced at the two paper deeds and accepted them without any hesitation. He had already expected it when he saw Li Tianyan appear.

“Farewell!” Li Tianyan clasped his fists and said goodbye to him as a warrior, then turned around and stepped onto the spaceship again.

Guan Haoran held the two paper deeds and bid farewell to the people on the mid-air spaceship. “Farewell.”

There were many people at the foot of Fenglong Mountain watching the spaceship leave from a distance, but everyone had different moods. Some were reluctant to watch it go, some regretted it, and some envied it.

After the spaceship completely disappeared from the sky, Shang Ruifeng helped his pregnant wife get into the carriage and drive away.

“Li Tianyan probably won’t come back in the future,” Lu Jinghuai, who was sitting in the carriage, suddenly said.

“Yes, going to Tianfan Immortal Sect is like entering another world,” Shang Ruifeng finished speaking and smiled reassuringly, “Don’t worry, at least occasionally we can get news about them from my clan uncle.”

Lu Jinghuai nodded after hearing this, the rocking of the carriage making him fall asleep unconsciously. Shang Ruifeng protected his sleeping wife, gently caressing his bulging belly with one hand, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
