The Legend of Li Yuan
Out of Self-Exile

A few days later, the two Laohu Sect Elders and the disciples from the Li Clan returned back to the Sect. They were already in one deal if the new Li Clan was to be led by Li Dan, with the support of the Laohu Sect, the existence of the Li Clan would be the center of attention in the Blue Dragon Province.

The calm condition of the Laohu Sect in the past few days made things go well, Patriarch Bao Xiong and Elder Bao Zi had come out of his place of seclusion. With the power of the Late Stage Earth God realm they ended their closed cultivation. With this result, three people were at the Earth God Level Swordsman realm as well as seven people had the Sacred Swordsman cultivation realm. This composition has changed the structure of the Laohu Sect. One of the changes that occurred was Elder Jia Fu was in his new position as the Vice Sect Chief. While Li Tong and three friends became Deacon who took care of several fields.

Meanwhile, at the bottom of the Blue Lake, Li Yuan was still cultivating it. After sensing his strength experiencing a very significant increase, Li Yuan still wanted to make the most of his time by cultivating even longer.

"It looks like I should try to absorb the Blue Crystals" Li Yuan thought.

At this moment, he wanted to add to the strength of his water element that he had obtained earlier. Without wasting any time, he immediately absorbed a single Blue Crystal that was the size of his hand.

Time passed quickly, no more than ten days had passed. It felt like it was enough, he felt that his strength was already at the realm of the Early Heaven God Stage. Li Yuan wanted to see the results of his training all along, by extracting the water pressure, within a short period of time an enormous Qi energy surged from within his body. The enormous Qi energy screamed over the surface of the Lake, the so amazing blue light made the darkness of the night beautiful as that blue sparkle shot out from within the water.

"Booommm"

With an extremely fast speed, water waves moved and exploded in the air. The loud sound of explosions echoed throughout the entire Laohu Sect, making people feel terrified and think that the Earth Dragons were raging back.

In the quiet night sky, amidst the airwaves, Li Yuan jumped and floated stably. An extremely frightening aura erupted, he looked like a ghostly figure that appeared at night. Under the moonlight, his form moved nimbly. From underneath, the water waves re-formed on a larger scale creating a terrifying rumbling sound. In a split second, the water wave froze, like there were ice grains blooming and cold energy seeping from Li Yuan's body.

The Elders who were already present near the Bao Zi Pavilion looked at Li Yuan with awe, their mouths almost falling to the ground. They felt that Li Yuan's strength was already absurd. They also did not expect that Li Yuan possessed the ability of more than one characteristic at such a young age. Thinking of this, Patriarch Bao Xiong's eyes shone brightly.

"Only a martial expert who possesses the Sky Emperor Body can do this" Patriarch Bao Xiong muttered inwardly.

Meanwhile, from one corner of the blue Lake, Li Jieru looked dumbfounded. He did not expect the results obtained by Li Yuan to be so impressive. Up to this stage, he did not think that the effects of the Blue Crystals could be as violent as that. He knew that if the Blue Crystal contained only the characteristic element of water, absorbing it would be able to create a new energy core. Yet the strength he had just seen from Li Yuan was so strong it exceeded his perception.

"Young master seems to be doing things beyond the limits of reasonableness" Li Jieru muttered with a sigh of relief.

Regardless of Li Yuan's ability to absorb the elements of lightning, wind, magma, soul, and water. He still did not know to what extent the ability of the Celestial Emperor's body to absorb the power of nature. Whether he can still absorb it again or simply use the karekteristik as needed.

Li Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, what he expected went according to plan. Seeing the presence of the Chairman and the Elders made Li Yuan immediately turn and re-press his cultivation realm. As before, he showed his strength only as a Swordsman of the King.

"Greetings to the Patriarch and the Elders" Li Yuan said greeting the people who had begun to approach him.

"You are indeed very great" Patriarch Bao Xiong praised without hesitation.

"Chairman, it looks like tomorrow morning I will leave the Sect again" Li Yuan said suddenly.

Hearing Li Yuan's words, everyone fell silent. They were confused as to what to say about his sudden departure.

"As long as I leave, Li Jieru will remain in the Laohu Sect. He will take good care of this entire southern region" said Li Yuan who was a little understood by the change in expression of the Sect Chief.

"Well if that's the case, then what if we want to call you?" ask the Sect Patriarch.

"The chief just needs to ask Li Jieru, we have a special contact" Li Yuan replied briefly.

Li Yuan asked for a procedure to leave the Sect, so as not to question others. On his departure this time he didn't tell anyone. He wants to keep his identity secret and use a new identity when at his destination later.

They all continued the conversation inside Elder Bao Zi's residence, Li Yuan's whereabouts put him in an awkward position. He was not too interested in talking about the matter of the Sect, just the news of the existence of the new Sky General. Li Yuan was a little serious about noticing the subtle friction between the Laohu Sect and the new Sky General. But with the Sect's firm stance, it made Li Yuan proud to be in the Laohu Sect which now had an increasingly strong foundation.

After finishing gathering with the Sect Leaders, Li Yuan met Li Tong and Fan Lau who had been waiting for him.

"I'm sorry, make you wait" Li Yuan said.

"It's okay, we should have a chat in an ordinary place" Li Tong asked as he pulled his brother's arm.

Near the boulder where Li Yuan first cultivated in Laohu Sect, those companions regrouped. They talk about the past and occasionally talk about the future. Li Yuan also told about his departure plan tomorrow morning, Li Yuan reasoned to adventure for a while.

"You be careful, even though you are now strong, but there are many unexpected things out there" Li Tong said with a heavy heart.

However, he had just met his best friend, but now they would be separated again.

"You train strongly, you will all become great figures in the Sky Realm" Li Yuan said steadily.

The next morning, Li Yuan handed Li Tong a ring. The ring was a gift from Li Jieru, as well as being able to serve as a communication tool with the beautiful Earth Dragon.

After some business was done, Li Yuan jumped into the air quickly. His body moved like cotton, making people unable to observe Li Yuan's movements. Where Li Yuan went no one knew of him, not even Li Tong his closest friend.
