Star Xiang was in a time of chaos due to the news of how the death of the representative from the Holy Land had spread widely while in the Secret World. The appearance of the figure that was considered the God of Death also made all the powers on standby, many forbidding their disciples from going out and staying on the mountain until the situation returned conducive.
But even though they stayed in their respective places and forbade anyone to go down looking for trouble, they were still curious as to who the God of Death was.
Why come to Xiang Star? Will the Xiang Star survive or be destroyed?
Many wonder and almost all the questions they think are the same. Except, the Rose Sword Sect was relatively conducive because Jiang Chen knew the truth.
The Rose Sword Sect had improved, many came there to register as disciples. Even many wealthy merchants who originally wanted to send their children to the Holy Land, undo the intent and transfer them to the Rose Sword Sect.
The news of the Rose Sword Sect being included in the Secret World List was already known, and about him not offending the Death God was known. So entering the Rose Sword Sect was relatively safe, in contrast to the panicked Holy Land, afraid that if the Death God attacked suddenly.
Although many sects were not all around the Death God and were relatively safe, but no one entered the Secret World List other than the Rose Sword Sect, which meant that they were inferior to the Rose Sword Sect.
The reputation of the Rose Sword Sect increased, and it had a standing of its own, although not as much as the Holy Land, but for the Intermediate Strength, it could be considered as the strongest.
The Holy Land began to take into account the Rose Sword Sect that had never previously been considered, but now it could make them cautious. Many had secretly sent out spies to infiltrate the Rose Sword Sect, but all the spies returned empty-handed, all the information obtained was useless, some even lost their memories.
The Holy Land was angry because of the actions of the Rose Sword Sect, but they did not dare to voice this out. After all, if the Sacred Land said that they sent spies to the Rose Sword Sect and returned without recalling anything, then the reputation they had built all along would be damaged.
Not only did it send spies to the Intermediate Strength, but the spies that sent its memories were erased, which meant that the spies sent were unprofessional as they could be detected. If the spies from the Upper Powers failed to carry out the duties in the Intermediate Strength, then there would be an opinion stating that the Holy Land was weaker than the Rose Sword Sect.
Jiang Chen himself did not know that any spies had infiltrated the Rose Sword Sect. It was all done purely by Mo Lian secretly from afar, which was tens of thousands of miles away from the Rose Sword Sect.
Mo Lian did that because she was in charge of the famous Rose Sword Sect. If there was a problem, he felt uneasy, at least during in Star Xiang, he would help him, but after leaving, he did not care anymore how the fate of the Rose Sword Sect was going in front of him.

—Summer Phoenix Pavilion, Bei— City
The Summer Phoenix Pavilion was a very prosperous restaurant in Bei City. Many influential people come here to eat fantastic dishes, especially when entering the summer, because the food in the summer is the best.
White Chicken Iris, Ice Noodle, Ice Chicken Claw, Rose Ice Jelly.
Although the dish is the same as Chinese summer dishes, but the taste here is better because it uses quality ingredients. Seasonings made from plants hundreds of years old, chickens are fed using quality herbs and so on.
The Summer Phoenix Pavilion was divided into nine floors, and each floor had its own dish. Each floor was pegged at a different price, and another top of each dish would be priced with a High quality Spiritual Stone.
The requirements to enter each floor are different. The ground floor was open to the public, the second floor was for the lower-class noble families, the third floor was for the middle-class noble families, the fourth floor was for the upper-class noble families, the fifth floor was for the Lower Strength, the third floor was for the lower powers, sixth floor for Intermediate Strength, seventh floor for Upper Strength, eighth floor for Black Gods, ninth floor for Earth Gods and above.
The reason why the Upper Powers were placed on the seventh floor rather than the ninth floor was because previously many disciples from the Upper Powers had come, ordered a lot of food and made a mess, but did not pay, but did not pay, so the Summer Phoenix Pavilion party made a new rule.
As for whether or not the Summer Phoenix Pavilion was able to contend with the Holy Land, as they could change the rules regardless of the opinion of the Upper Powers, then they had the strength capable of supporting the Summer Phoenix Pavilion to remain standing.
...
"Darling, many are talking about the God of Death." Yun Ning opened the window beside him, looking at the main street of the ninth floor of the Summer Phoenix Pavilion.
Mo Lian put up a barrier to dampen the sound inside so as not to be heard from outside. Although this room room room had the same prevention, he did not believe too much in its quality.
Mo Lian shook her head. "The originals give the name. Do I look like a God of Death? Wherever I go, I always bring happiness and life."
Hong Xi Ning turned his head, looking at Mo Lian with a strange and disgusted look simultaneously.
Mo Lian closed her eyes and felt a twitch in her temple. She could feel Hong Xi Ning's gaze clearly, and it hurt her little heart.
Hong Xi Ning chuckled. She kissed Mo Lian's cheek, then went back to eating.
"Darling, when do we leave?" qin Nian asked. He raised the second, carrying the chicken slices with chopsticks towards Mo Lian's mouth.
Mo Lian opened her eyes slowly and her mouth, then received a chicken slice. He chewed, gulped and replied, "After we say goodbye to Jiang Chen, then we go to the Northern Region. It's dangerous there, we have to be careful."
"Are we going to the Northern Region just to deal with the God of Life Liberation?" ask Yun Ning. He knew the reason they were going to the Northern Region to eliminate the God of Life Liberation from the Universe and make sure not to get back up, but he felt that it would be boring to just do that.
Mo Lian knew what Yun Ning was thinking. Yun Ning came to other places not because she wanted to do heavy tasks, but rather a vacation, thinking of it as a honeymoon.
"Yes." Yeah." Mo Lian nodded her head, and made it clear, "We only take care of the God of Life Liberation, after which return to the Eastern Region to discuss the plan ahead of him."
Yun Ning pouted as she found out about it, but she couldn't fight it and just accepted it.
Too long in circles, too many problems to come. But it must be admitted, he did get a lot of benefits with many problems that came.
"We just wait, after all this is done, surely our husband will take us around to a more beautiful place" said Qin Nian. Clearly, she also liked a beautiful place and liked to take a vacation like Yun Ning.
Hong Xi Ning nodded in agreement and added, "But not just the four of us, we should bring a lot of people to be more crowded."
Qin Nian and Yun Ning looked at each other z then imagined their families taking a vacation together. They feel it's gonna be fun.
Mo Lian placed the chopsticks on top of the bowl. "I'm done eating. We can leave now for the Rose Sword Sect to meet Jiang Chen."
The three nodded and stood up, then left the Summer Phoenix Pavilion.

—Secte Rose Sword—
Jiang Chen was in the Sect Hall by himself, precisely in the secret room to consolidate his newly breaking strength for several days. Now that he could relax a little and have some personal time, previously, he had to step in because only he had the cultivation of the Earth God.
Now, although there was no additional Earth God, at least he was no longer alone in the God Realm. After Jiang Chen returned from the Secret World, there had already been some who had broken through to the Beginner God, and that power had continued to expand.
"I must become strong to protect this sect. I can't always expect Mo Lian to help me." Jiang Chen closed his eyes slowly, took a deep breath and practiced the Cultivation Technique.
Just as he was about to practice it, he opened his eyes again when he sensed a familiar aura was coming to the Rose Sword Sect.
"Mo Lian?" Jiang Chen frowned. He stood up, walking out of the hidden room.
When Jiang Chen arrived at the Sect Hall, he could see Mo Lian who was sitting in the guest chair and was accompanied by the Fifth Elder.
The elders here already knew who Mo Lian was, as it was not strange for Mo Lian to enter the Sect Hall without having to wait for permission from the Patriarch.
Jiang Chen cupped his hands together and slightly bowed. "What brought you here?"
Mo Lian stood up and cupped her hands together to return the greeting. "We plan to leave Star Xiang today, and probably won't come back here again."
Jiang Chen was a little surprised. Although he knew that Mo Lian would leave Star Xiang sooner or later, but he felt this was too soon and suddenly.
"Do you guys not want to stay for a few more days?" asked Jiang Chen.
Mo Lian shook her head and replied, "Sorry, we are in a hurry. If we postpone it again, the God of Life Liberation will become stronger and it will be difficult to overcome it. What if we were late, and they had already created a monster capable of rivaling hundreds of Heaven Gods? We don't want that to happen."
Jiang Chen nodded, but did not say anything more including making Mo Lian stay.
Mo Lian stepped out of the Main Hall. He looked at the sky of the Rose Sword Sect, he raised his hand and poured blue energy into the barrier layer.
Suddenly...
The flow of energy within the Rose Sword Sect increased by several times, the barrier protecting the sect also increased to a certain level, the fuel used was also reduced, and no longer even used the Spiritual Stone to maintain the array formation.
"The "Defense Arrays here could withstand a Late stage Heaven God. The Qi Gatherer Array had already risen to a certain level. The fuel used was not a song using the Spiritual Stone, this formation instantly took spiritual energy in the atmosphere to fuel it."
Jiang Chen looked at the surroundings, and indeed felt a change. "But, this kind of change should have a certain effect, why is there no burst of energy or natural phenomena?"
Mo Lian looked at Jiang Chen. "Do you want to be like that? I can change it, but you must be prepared to become a target of the Holy Land. Perhaps in the presence of a phenomenon, they would assume that the Rose Sword Sect had a Heavenly Treasure. Even if it can withstand the attacks of the Late Heaven God, but you guys can't get out of here due to the constant attacks, do you want to be like that?"
Jiang Chen was silent. He thought about it, and it made sense. But, in order to change or eliminate the phenomenon that usually always appeared, surely Mo Lian's power was no longer in the Universe, it had to follow the power of the Celestial Realm.
Mo Lian looked at her wives, then gave a small nod. He looked around, then looked at Jiang Chen. "In that case, we'll leave now."
"Aah!" Jiang Chen flinched, then he cupped his hands together. "Hopefully your journey is smooth."
Mo Lian returned Jiang Chen's greetings, then he opened the blue portal beside him, and went inside with his wives.
