Legend of the Great Sage

the three of us celebrating for you!”

Having three Foundation Establishment cultivators celebrate for a Qi Practitioner was an extremely rare treatment to enjoy.
It was basically impossible unless they had close ties with one another.

However, Li Qingshan shook his head and declined.
“That won’t be necessary.”

“Is it because there’s not enough people?”

“I want to celebrate once I reach Foundation Establishment,” Li Qingshan smiled.
He had already made up his mind.
He could make a push through this final obstacle now.

“Foundation Establishment?” Hua Chengzan raised an eyebrow.
He called himself a genius, but in order to successfully establish a foundation, who knew how much effort he had spent towards it.
He would have never mentioned it so easily.

Liu Chuanfeng on the side raised his head in surprise too.
This disciple of his really liked to boast.

“You want to enter seclusion for another three years?” Hua Chengzan probed.
He thought Li Qingshan was trying to avoid the current situation after seeing all the dangers.
This was a common thought.
As a result, the academy maintained an extremely tight control over the disciples in secluded cultivation now.
However, he felt like Li Qingshan was not that kind of person.

“It shouldn’t take that long this time.” Li Qingshan shook his head gently.

At this moment, Han Tieyi descended from above.
Without saying anything, he directly shoved a letter into Li Qingshan’s hand.

Li Qingshan opened the letter in confusion.
There were only ten words, “You bastard son of a bitch, write back to me!”

“You contacted her.” Li Qingshan smiled bitterly as he read those ten words again and again.
His heart warmed up.
Her appearance suddenly grew clear in his mind, like she was cursing him loudly in his ear.

“She’s still my elder sister after all,” said Han Tieyi.
Although they never seemed like siblings, even rather distant at first glance, their familial connection where blood ran thicker than water could never be severed.

“I often forget about that.” Li Qingshan stowed the letter into his bosom.

“Are you going to reply?”

“Of course.” Li Qingshan smiled.
His heart was no longer lost or confused.
His various thoughts of running away had all been swept clean.
This was his responsibility as a man.

Han Tieyi then took out a jade slip and passed it to Li Qingshan.

“What’s this?”

“You’ll know once you take a look.”

Li Qingshan opened the jade slip and immediately became speechless.
The jade slip recorded a cultivation method—the Arts of the Boundless Ocean.

“You said you wanted the cultivation method that could allow you to completely power Ocean Wielding.
This is it, the Arts of the Boundless Ocean.
She asked our uncle to find it.
Although it’s missing the first half, she’s asked our uncle to patch it up, so it shouldn’t affect it too much.
It should be the cultivation method most suited for you.
She wanted me to give it to you once you emerged.
You can say it’s a surprise.”

Li Qingshan rubbed his tingling nose.
He had almost forgotten he had mentioned this to her, yet she still remembered it.
Was it all just a coincidence? No, it wasn’t.
It was inseverable love.
Even if she did not know about his various secrets, did that make her love any less real?

Li Qingshan waved around the jade slip in his hand.
“If I wasn’t going to reply, you never planned on handing me the jade slip, did you?”

“I’m still her younger brother after all,” said Han Tieyi after quite a lengthy silence.
Although every single cultivator had their own thoughts and choices towards these emotions, people who were faithless and fickle did not deserve her concern.

Li Qingshan returned to his room and wrote a reply with just a few flicks of the brush.
He shoved it into the envelope and handed it to Han Tieyi.

“She’s written so many letters.
You’re just going to answer her with a few words?” Hua Chengzan smiled.
