Episode 17

Meanwhile, Zhao Ling had quickly arrived at the Zhao Clan. He tried to sense the presence of his parents, but he couldn't feel them.

"Strange, usually, Father and Mother are always in the clan, but now they're not here. Where did they go? Could they be at brother's place? Never mind, I better rest first," Zhao Ling muttered, and he went towards his residence.

Zhao Ling entered and immediately went to his room because he felt tired. But when he arrived in his room, he saw a letter and a small box on his bed. Zhao Ling took them and read the contents of the letter.

* Ling Er, forgive your mother for leaving you. Mother, Father, and your two brothers have left because Mother was summoned by her original clan. Mother wanted to invite you to go, but Mother couldn't find you, so Mother could only leave this for you.

Ling Er, the Golden Sky Realm is not the highest realm; there are still realms above it, and Mother originates from the Heaven Realm above the Golden Sky Realm. By the time you read this letter, Mother may have already arrived at her clan. Become the strongest, Ling Er. Mother, Father, and your two brothers will be waiting for you in Mother's clan.

Goodbye, Ling Er,

Sincerely, Yun Li*

Zhao Ling's heart ached as he read the contents of the letter, and tears streamed down his face. He felt sad because he had just felt family affection after so long, only to be separated again.

"Huff... I just felt what family affection was like after so long, but I have to be separated again," Zhao Ling muttered sadly. He didn't expect that leaving without a word would be his biggest mistake.

Zhao Ling then opened the small box his mother left behind. Inside, he saw a gold token inscribed with "Yun" and a storage ring.

"Yun Clan, Father, Mother, wait for me. I will definitely go to the Heaven Realm and reunite with you," Zhao Ling muttered. He held the token tightly, tears continuing to flow from his eyes. He felt the same sadness he had experienced before. He didn't expect to be separated from his parents again so soon.

After trying to calm himself, Zhao Ling was determined to become strong immediately and search for his parents' whereabouts.

"I have to become strong quickly, so I can be reunited with my family. It seems I will go to the Central Continent soon and take the three flames, and also resolve the problems that happened before," muttered Zhao Ling, who was determined to become strong quickly. Then, Zhao Ling looked at the ring his mother had given him. When he saw its contents, Zhao Ling's eyes widened in disbelief.

Inside the ring were millions of gold coins, a strange stone with a dense spiritual energy, and countless herbs that were very difficult to find, ranging from level eight to levels Zhao Ling didn't recognize because he had never seen them before.

"Did Mother make a mistake leaving this? All of this is a precious treasure, and this stone... what kind of stone is this?" Zhao Ling mumbled in disbelief as he looked at the stone that emitted energy. But without further thought, a smile spread across Zhao Ling's face. With all of this, it wouldn't be difficult for him to increase his cultivation.

"Hahaha... It seems Mother has prepared this for me. Alright, I will increase my strength again before heading to the Central Continent. I should overcome the tribulation lightning here. If I do it in the Central Continent, it will cause unnecessary commotion," said Zhao Ling, laughing happily. He then disappeared from there, who knows where.

Meanwhile, in a very large clan far from the Golden Sky Realm, the clan was inscribed with "Yun Clan." It was the clan of Yun Li. She was currently in a room with a middle-aged man. Yun Li just stared at the man coldly.

"Li Er, haven't you forgiven this old man yet?" said the middle-aged man sadly. He was Yun Chen, Yun Li's father.

Hearing her father's words, Yun Li just snorted. She was still very angry at her father because for the sake of status, he almost sold her to the young master of the Lin Clan, who was known for his playboy ways.

"Enough, Father. Is there anything else you want to discuss? I want to rest," said Yun Li in an unpleasant tone. This made Yun Chen only able to regret his stupidity in almost selling his own daughter.

Without a response, Yun Li immediately left. She still didn't want to meet her father because of the pain in her heart.

"Forgive Father, my child. Because of Father's stupidity, you are angry with Father," Yun Chen muttered with deep regret.

"That's enough, Gege. I believe that slowly but surely, Li Er will forgive you," said a middle-aged woman who suddenly appeared. Her name was Yun Xin, Yun Chen's wife and Yun Li's mother.

"Yes, I know, Xin Er. But I feel guilty towards her for forcing her back then," said Yun Chen with regret. Hearing her husband's words, Yun Xin remained silent because she was also a little disappointed with her husband's decision at that time. She also disagreed with the arranged marriage, and it was Yun Xin who helped Yun Li escape from their clan and end up in the Golden Sky Realm.

"Enough, you don't need to think about it anymore. It's better if you see, she found happiness in the Golden Sky Realm. I hope you don't do anything stupid like you did before. Otherwise, not only Li Er will leave you, but I will too," threatened Yun Xin, and she left. Hearing his wife's threat, Yun Chen could only lower his head. He didn't dare to answer; he knew his past stupidity.

"No, this time I won't do that stupid thing again," muttered Yun Chen, who also left.

Meanwhile, in the Golden Sky Realm, precisely in a dark forest, a bonfire could be seen flickering in a cave. There, a young man was roasting a deer.

"I didn't expect to come back to this forest, but this is the only safe place for me to undergo the tribulation lightning. Alright, after eating, I will start cultivating. The pills I need are ready. I hope I succeed this time," muttered Feng Chen, and he then ate the cooked deer meat, devouring it ravenously.
