Issei already told them to not depend on the because that art is not very useful for them and it's a lot better if they train their will and heart using their own determination.

Tempering mind and body is something that they needed to experience on their own. Using the will only serve as a temporary solution... It may help them in the early phase but in the future, it will be harder for them to reach that inner peace they're searching for since this art forcefully "Freeze" their feelings.

When the time comes where that art is no longer usable for them then that's when they will feel the backlash of that said art... Just like how someone using a certain drug to increase their cultivation but when that drug runs out that person will become restless thinking without that said drug they are weak.

"If you're not even allowed to feel anything then can you even be considered human? You all are a living being... Not some kind of emotionless doll. Find your inner peace on your own and don't depend on some outside help." Is the direct quote of what he said towards them.

The girls took his words seriously and from then on they rarely use the ...

And just like he said, the girls could more easily cultivate nowadays without any discomfort... They felt more free and unrestrained than ever...

The awe and respect they felt towards him are already on par with what they felt towards the founder of the sect, Mu Bingyun herself.

Issei and Xia Qingyue set off to their destination... Issei wore his mask while Xia Qingyue wears her veil.

During the short time she's spent inside the sect, her beauty grew even further.

Issei's training only makes her countenance become even more prominent than ever. If her old look seems like a fragile beauty then her current look is that of a true Fairy Maiden... Battle clad Fairy Maiden.

Her limpid beautiful eyes become sharper as the result of his training but it's not a big change overall but it's still quite something nonetheless... All she needs now is just to grow older and there is no doubt that her beauty will rival even Jasmine and Xun'er.

Her cultivation already reached the 10th level of . This cultivation speed is really monstrous in the lower realm such as the .

Jasmine and Xun'er admitted that Issei really has the talent and strength to bring this to great heights. Even in the upper realm, they're sure that he will be considered among the best if not the best up there just taking his talent into consideration...

But they are also a bit confused as to why he doesn't advance to yet... His foundation and understanding of the profound way couldn't be more solid. But why he is still only at the peak of the after all this time?

It needs to be known that when Xia Qingyue first met Issei, her cultivation was only at the 10th level of . So in these past few weeks, her cultivation has risen by 1 big realm in one go.

Issei indeed has trained her but her talent and will also help her in the process. Even Issei is feeling a little amazed since she almost reaches the basic level of .

Soon she will be able to use her profound energy to coat her body and weapon.

Sure if she's compared to the old Ramius's group when they're still human then Xia Qingyue has indeed surpassed them in terms of talent.

It's not that Ramius's group is slow but their starting level is just different. And her supposed physique also played a role in this regard so it's quite understandable...

Issei is planning to teach her as well once her reaches the basic level.

They both are currently flying in the sky.

Xia Qingyue still can't fly yet but Issei could easily make her body float next to him with his perfect control of the profound energy.

Unlike Chu Yueli, he doesn't need to grasp onto her hand to make her fly but Xia Qingyue felt a little disappointed because of this... Not that she will say it out loud, obviously...

After flying for a while, they finally reached the . There's a lot of people saw them when they're flying through the sky so they instantly knew that both of them must've been at the very least at the .

They landed on the ground and those around them hastily paid their respect towards them... Although they can't see Xia Qingyue and Issei's face, just from their figure alone is enough to tell them all that these 2 are surely an extraordinary individual.

The men don't dare to gaze upon Xia Qingyue's for a prolonged period of time since they might earn their ire...

Issei asked some bystanders where's the . The man respectfully told him where the location is... He thanked the man for the info and then they headed towards the pointed direction...

They finally arrived at their destination. The palace has more than three thousand disciples. It recruits disciples within the age of fifteen to eighteen. Most stay until they reach twenty years old before departing and many join the Blue Wind military.

The palace's strength is relatively weak compared to the other large sects in the city.

But all of this doesn't matter to Xia Qingyue or Issei. She only wanted her little brother to be safe.

"Halt." The guards who saw them approaching blocked their way but their tone is full of respect since they saw both of them could fly in the sky.

"May we know the reason for your visit to our humble palace?" One of the guards asked Issei and Xia Qingyue cautiously since they both must've had high cultivation.

Qingyue is still wearing the artifact to hide her cultivation while Issei has higher cultivation than the whole city inhabitants.

The strongest individual in their city is the palace chief himself, Qin Wuyou. And even he only has the cultivation level of 6th .

"We are from the and I'm here to visit my little brother, Xia Yuanba." Xia Qingyue calmly said their purpose.

The guards look at each other in shock before they cupped their fist even more respectful than before: "So it's the esteemed guests from the . Please wait for a moment, we will relay fairy Xia message immediately." Then one of them hastily went inside the palace.

The disciples who're going in and out of the palace halted in their steps watching both Issei and Xia Qingyue since both of them stand out the most even with their face covered.

They keep looking at them both with wonder and curiosity in their faces... While the men almost drooled seeing Xia Qingyue's hourglass figure, the women had their face flushed when they're gazing upon Issei's perfect figure... They really wanted to take those veil and mask off of their face so they could see just what kind of otherworldly faces are they hiding underneath it...

The guards who saw their disrespectful gazes can't really do anything since most of the disciple here has big background and he's just a measly guard so he can't really afford to provoke any of them...

"Don't be disrespectful towards out guests from the ." The guard can o
