Chapter 38: Leaving

"I am going to leave this city soon." 

A sentence that froze up the three girls and disrupted their minds.

"W-why?" Lian asked.

"Is it because you are unsatisfied with our progress?"

Azrael smiled at Riana's question, "That's not the reason. There are some matters that I need to attend to. It's been a month since I started training you guys. Lian you are already at the Qi Liquification Realm on the other hand the Tihana and Riana are at the 7th Qi Refining Realm. I must say that with the rate of your progress plus with a solid foundation each break through, it is passable in my eyes."

"S-so, you will really leave us?" Tihana asked with a hint of reluctance. In the past month. She became quite attached to Azrael.

"Well, technically I won't leave you guys behind."

"""Huh?"""

"You guys will leave this city earlier than me. The Island Master of the Mystic Island is an acquaintance of mine. So, there's no need for you, Lian, to wait for someone from that Island to pick you up. I can send you earlier than scheduled and I have decided to send Tihana and Riana to that Island."

"Wouldn't that offend the Island Master?"

"No, actually if she knew I was the one that sent you guys, I can guarantee you that she would welcome you warmly."

"""She…""" the three muttured.

[Well, what do I expect? Mystic Island is an all-female island. I just hope that the Island Master is just an acquaintance of his, but the thing that is bugging me was my aunt's statement about Azrael's harem. Sigh.]

"With that, you, three young ladies, must need to notify your overprotective father."

After saying that Azrael left them.

"Wait, who's going to accompany us when we leave this city?"

"Maybe him?" Tihana suggested.

***

"So you are leaving this city."

"Yeah. And  I have to ask you for a favor."

"Anything, my husband." Bianca said with a sweet smile on her face.

"Can you bring the other three girls to the Mystic Island in advance?"

"Sure, in fact, I would like to stay at Mystic Island now since I already found you."

Azrael then pressed his lips towards hers.

***

"Azrael said that?" Maxwell asked Lian.

"Yes, that's why Riana and Tihana temporarily went to their families to notify them."

"To think that he knows the Island Master of Mystic Island. It is really fortunate that he was not offended by my brutish father, sigh."

"Who is brutish?"

"Coughed!!" Maxwell who was sighing couldn't help but cough after hearing the familiar voice.

"Brutish? Who talks about brutish? Maybe you misheard it, father."

"Hmmmph." Dillon ignored Maxwell and approached Lian.

"To think my granddaughter would leave us soon, sigh. Grandfather would be lonely."

"Don't worry, grandpa. I will come and visit."

"Sigh."

"Coughed, so Young Master will accompany you during your trip, right?" Maxwell asked his daughter.

"The truth is, we also don't know. Because he mentioned before that Riana, Tihana and I would be leaving the city earlier than him. So even us were confused. "

***

The next day.

Tihana and Riana already returned to the Rose estate after notifying and convincing their fathers about their sudden journey towards the Mystic Island.

Although Richard and Hubert were reluctant, they were also happy for their daughters after hearing that they would be accepted at the Mystic Island.

Of course, there's a doubt at first if Azrael was telling the truth. But after considering Azrael's strength and how invested he was in their daughters, to the point of training them. They chose to believe in him.

However, it doesn't necessarily mean that they wouldn't come and ask him directly about Azrael's plan of sending their daughters to Mystic Island.

"And that's the gist of it."

"I see, then let me ask you who would accompany them on their trip? Because our daughters are also not sure about whether you would accompany them or not."

"You will know when the time comes.."

***

Another one week has passed since then.

Dozens of people were gathered at the main hall of the Rose estate, including parents of Tihana and Riana.

"Take good care of yourself." Reona advised her daughter as she caressed her hair and face. She then dotingly kissed Lian's forehead. "I will miss you." She whispered as she held the tears on the edge of her eyes.

"Then can you tell us now who would accompany them?"

"My wife."

"""Pardon?""" The three fathers spoke the same word at the same time.

"Your wife? You mean my sister?"

"Yes."

"Wait, why? She is only at Qi Refining Realm. How can she accompany them on a long journey and if by any chance that they encounter danger, who would protect them?"

To Maxwell's inquiry, Azrael smiled and said, "Don't worry, because she is as strong as the Island Master of Mystic realm."

Both Richard and Hubert gulped simultaneously.

On the other hand, Maxwell and Dillon looked at each other with confusion.

"So my aunt is that powerful." Lian muttered.

She seemed to believe all of the words that were coming out of Azrael's mouth. Not only her but the other two girls were convinced by Azrael.

Who can blame them? Due Azrael's guidance and training they achieve their current cultivation realm in just a month.

After their farewells to each of their family, Bianca then walked towards the three.

"Are you girls ready?"

"""Y-Yes.""" The three simultaneously answered.

"Then Let's go."

Then something happened that shook the entire hall except Azrael.

Bianca and the other three disappeared.

]

"W-what happened to them!?" Reona asked, panicking.

"They arrived at their destination." Azrael flatly said.

Dillon eyebrows furrowed, "What do you mean?"

"Didn't I tell you that she is as powerful as Mystic Island's Island Master. What you saw is just a fraction of her power."

Many gulped as they heard this, coincidentally they were asking the same question inside their minds, [Does that kind of strength really exist?]

"How's your end going?"

"You came." Julius stopped swinging his sword, and walked towards Azrael who was standing near his shabby hut.

"I met a bottleneck."

"So you can't break through to the 2nd Qi Refining Realm. Tell me what you think about the grass."

"Grass, huh. Tenacity. No matter how much I swung my swords at the grass, it would eventually grow a few days later. Some even show signs of growing the next morning when I wake up."

"Tenacity, huh. That's more than enough." With that said, Azrael waved his hand and a small ball of light formed and plunged towards Julius' forehead.

"W-What is that?" He confusedly asked.

"Your guide. I am going to leave this place, go and comprehend my little gift to you."

"Guide." Julius muttered.
