Tomorrow.
Ling Chen looked at Zhang Quon who was beside him.
"You seem to be in a good mood. What are you doing?"
Ling Chen asked and Zhang Quon smiled.
"I slept with your sister last night. He was frightened because of the illusionary stone flower. He seems to be very afraid of ghosts."
Ling Chen rounded his eyes and looked at his brother.
Ling Chyou's ears reddened slightly nodding his head.
"When I seem like I don't believe that, I'm afraid of it."
Ling Chyou honestly said that. Ling Chen nodded accepting that easily.
Everyone has their own fears. Like some are afraid of animals, or even vegetables. Ghosts are pretty normal.
"Hjnm.... Afraid ghosts? What are the others afraid of? I'm afraid of tomatoes. I'm allergic to that one vegetable."
Tong Ma opened the talk, but no one wanted to say their fear.
"Everybody has different fears. Maybe what they're afraid of isn't as silly as us."
Ling Chyou said that while patting Tong Ma on the shoulder. Tong Ma nodded. He already knew this was going to happen.
They split up and started mining. Ling Chyou forgave the illusion flower easily and Ling Chyou took the space stone from the space stone flower.
He finished his report and some of his friends tried to cheat on him. Ling Chyou smiled letting them. He did it too. The age of being a student if not cheating is not the time of the student. At least once must have been. Ling Chyou did it many times in the final exam so that he would drop the class.
Yet they gave up after seeing Ling Chyou's meticulous report more than a textbook.

2 weeks passed. Everyone continued to mine and make their reports.A few martial arts students were looking for trouble with Them. But it's common.
Mostly looking for trouble with Ling Chyou for his cooking recipe. There was also for the stones that Ling Chen had collected. Yet they were directly on the broom of the martial trio in their batch.
"It's been 2 weeks. How do we try to pick up rocks in deeper regions?"
Some of the martialists who seemed to be overconfident went to higher ground. The higher the ground, the rarer the stone they would obtain. Up to the 3rd area higher is the safest. After that, you should not exceed it if you do not have the strength.
The monsters there are attacking people. The stone monster that was specially made protected this place. He could look like a useless boulder. But if you step into the area, they will move to defend their area.
So, why am I the one with sky level 1 in area 4?
I was mistaken for their friend and ended up being dragged here.
"Hey! You dare drag me! I'm only sky level 1 at the end of sky 2! How can you mistake me!?"
Ling Chyou easily scolded them.
"Sorry, sorry. We think you're our friend who's at sky level 2. Don'worry. We'll protect you."
Ling Chyou felt sorry for the friend he meant. They must have tried to make the kid bait.
'And you must be thinking of making me a bait, don't you. admit it.'
Ling Chyou reluctantly followed them. A huge rock started to move and a golem with incredible soil anergy appeared in front of them.
The 5 meter tall stone golem stood upright staring at all of them with fury.
Those who were 5th began to attack the golem. Ling Chyou simply leaned on the stone beside him watching them fight with the stone.
.
.
.
In the end they were overwhelmed and fled.
"Hey, you! Take care of him for us!"
Ling Chyou heard it wanted to step forward. But the stone he was sanding suddenly turned into a 3-meter golem.
'I should have known it was a golem. Am I getting stupid the more I live in this world?'
Ling Chyou was speechless looking at the golem. The one who had Ling Chyou come forward was bluffing his teeth and leaving Ling Chyou with his other group.
'Now I'm staying?'
those 2 golems who saw Ling Chyou single-handedly started kneeling on one leg like they were kneeling on their king.
"Huh?"
Ling Chyou was confused. Was he that tall until they knelt in front of him.
The core of the golem shone and from there, a voice sounded.
"We bow to our master."
All the stones turned into golems in various sizes and kneeled in the same manner. They bowed to Ling Chyou.
"Huh?"
Ling Chyou could only give the same reaction.
"Master is welcome in the sky city. You can go and come as you please. The king of the sky city who had been over 10 thousand years disappeared."
Ling Chyou really doubted his ears right now.
"King? Can I come and go as I please? What's with that?"
Lots of questions on his mind. But that's the main thing.
"O our king. The city of heaven has no king. They were waiting for their king. A king who can rule nature. Your Majesty, you have not fully awakened. You will be able to control nature with just an order after this. You don't have to stay in the sky. You can travel as you like. The presence of nature alone is enough for your presence there."
Sweat ran down Ling Chyou's cheeks.
'Doesn't that mean I'm a god? I don't want to be that kind of creature.'
Seeing the rare frown on Ling Chyou's face, the golem was silently waiting for a reply.
"What would happen if I didn't return to the sky?"
Silence filled the area.
"none. But when you wake up completely, you will always be in danger. By absorbing your abilities, you will also die. There are always people who are jealous of your abilities. By going to the sky, your safety will be more assured. I'm also not sure if you can return quickly because your sudden appearance will make the sky citizens very happy."
Ling Chyou was silent.
'That means, at least I'll be stuck there for a year. Itupon if it's a year.'
Mind blaring. He is comfortable with everyone here. Also Ling Chyou, no, Jun Huanrang was someone who was afraid of a new place when there was someone he knew. It was a natural fear of being always injured since he was a child.
"I'll think about it. Thank ye. Just do your job."
Ling Chyou stepped away and the golems returned to their stone pile form.
.
.
.
Ling Chyou walked over with a disheveled face. Ru Xuan who had been looking for her frantically immediately rushed at her.
"Master! Are you okay!?"
Ling Chyou weakly nodded. He felt like he had just been hit in the back of his head.
Seeing that Ling Chyou who was always easy going had a tangled mind, Ru Xuan couldn't help but ask, what happened.
But he kept quiet following her. They walked over and finally they reached Ling Chen.
Ling Chen with a wide smile approached Ling Chyou. Ling Chyou smiled a little uncharacteristically. Many thoughts moved in his mind.
"Sister, what's going on?"
Ling Chen looked worried.
"Chen."
Ling Chen flinched as his brother simply called out his name. Ling Chyou always called him Ling Chen.
"Is it okay for me to leave for a long time? Alone."
Ling Chen's eyes rounded hearing that.
Ling Chyou recalled a storyline in the murim world. Where a brother or loved one will be taken, kidnapped or whatever. And the person most exposed to it is, himself.
'Wait for the time I will be taken by force. So, to avoid that, I have to go alone.'
Ling Chyou looked at his sister's disheveled and angry face. His hands were tightly clenched.
"Sister, you want to leave the family? I won't justify it."
Ling Chen's voice trembled. He's holding back his anger. She persuaded herself not to get angry, because her brother always had a good reason.
"I don't want to either."
Hearing that, Ling Chen could finally see the reluctance on his brother's face.
"Sister, what's going on?"
.
.
.
They ended up sitting in a quiet place outside the mountain. Ling Chyou was still silent and contemplating. Ling Chen patiently waited for his brother to speak.
He could not force his brother to explain anything. That's because someone likes to keep everything to themselves. So it's understandable he'll be pondering from continuing to open his mouth.
"I am the king of the cities of the sky."
Finally, Ling Chyou's mouth let out a voice that made Ling Chen round his eyes.
"I might be forced into the sky. You know, the martial warriors in the sky are all at the god level. So, from letting them force me to leave, I had to go and come back. I thought about 1 year. But it was not an easy thing to go after the existence of the sky city king disappeared for a long time."
Ling Chen who opened his mouth to speak, only closed back without a word of apapon.
The two of them contemplated the ground for a long time. Zhang Quon who happened to be then, seeing that silence, greeted.
"Why are you guys putting on such a tangled face?"
And at that moment, Ling Chyou recalled Zhang Quon. He feels so stupid. Zhang Quon is also going to the sky city in a moment.
"Zhang Quon, can you reach the god level immediately?"
Zhang Quon felt strange at being asked about his level for the first time by Ling Chyou. But her questioning tone sounded desperate.
"What's going on?"
Zhang Quon asked with a serious face.
"I have to go to the city of the sky. Are you able to reach the god level quickly and accompany me there? I don't want to go alone."
Ling Chyou's face looked desperate as he asked.
Zhang Quon was silent for a moment.
"When that? I'll become a god-level as soon as possible."
Ling Chyou's eyes twinkled slightly at the reply.
"Don't know. However I will leave once you reach the god level. Faster is better. I don't want to be kidnapped by the sky and can't go home."
Ling Chyou's face looked sad. But he was not aware that his sister was so unwilling to accept his decision. He held back the fire energy from coming out.
"Sorry to trouble you. I don't want to go alone."
Bang out! Bang out!
"Golem out of the mountain! What's going on!?"
Many people panicked and fled. Zhang Quon and Ling Chen stood in front of Ling Chyou to protect him.
"You guys, stop."
They heard that and Ling Chyou came to their front. The golem arrived in front of Ling Chyou and finally kneeled.
"The palace guards are already aware of your existence, your majesty. Please come to the sky in 3 months, or they'll come dragging you."
Ling Chyou cuddled his lips hearing that.
"3 months?"
Ling Chyou heard Zhang Quon mutter behind him.
"Too much more than enough. I'll reach god level in a month."
Ling Chyou smiled hearing that. He held Zhang Quon's hands together.
"You'll accompany me, won't you!? You won't wait until you're 15!?"
Zhang Quon smiled at Ling Chyou's question.
"I think you're starting to think about my level. You just think of friends to go with? At least you should look interested in my level."
Zhang Quon is hurting. Yet Ling Chyou only made a face moved at him.
"Really, thank you. There, I won't have anyone I can trust."
Zhang Quon and Ling Chen could understand Ling Chyou's fear that every day there was an arrow or something that would hit him at night.
Until Ru Xuan was tired of catching all of it.
"I'll also be a god-level in a month."
Ling Chen said that and looked at Zhang Quon.
"It's gonna be hell for a month."
Zhang Quon nodded at his sister's ambition to block their love story.
"I'll help you guys. Which technique do you want to learn?"
Ling Chyou took out many books and notes from his spatial ring.
"There are many techniques you can learn. Just say it."
They're all smiling. Hell training will begin.
