Black Snow didn't press for an answer on this matter. She knew that Free-and-Easy still had things to handle here, and he wouldn’t abandon these affairs lightly. For him, the matters of the Free-and-Easy Sect were far less important than what was happening there.

All Black Snow could do was wait until Free-and-Easy said it was okay himself. Actually, she thought this arrangement wasn't too bad. The days here had been peaceful without any conflicts; at least nothing had affected her personally yet.

She realized that perhaps she liked the quiet life now. Did this mean she had changed It probably wasn’t a big deal though, just a temporary mood brought on by novelty.

A month later, Free-and-Easy produced an astonishing quantity of pills, not only in numbers but also in quality and variety.

During this month, the medicinal herbs reserved by the Luo Family could sustain them for ten years. It seemed that Free-and-Easy's pill-making speed had greatly increased compared to before, and it wasn't just a little bit faster. This was due not only to his relentless work but also to his rising strength.

As an alchemist’s strength increases, the speed of their potion creation can also increase. Everyone knew this fact. During this period, Free-and-Easy had continuously upgraded several ranks in strength, so naturally his speed improved significantly as well.

In the morning light...

"Free-and-Easy, are you leaving" The eldest mistress looked at him.

"Eldest sister, you've been asking this since last night. You asked it dozens of times already." Free-and-Easy replied helplessly. Now was not the time for him to decide when he would leave; now was the time that he needed to depart. He had everything ready and waiting.

He told them several days ago that he intended to leave, but apparently only last night did the eldest sister realize it and kept asking about it.

"I can’t bear your leaving." The eldest sister looked at Free-and-Easy with an expression of reluctance.

"Go away. You still blame me for not drinking wine with you. We’ll talk about this later, when we go to the Love Red Courtyard and take care of some business there," Free-and-Easy said irritably; he didn’t believe she could miss him at all.

"Hehe, that’s what you said then, remember it." The eldest sister seemed to be waiting for this sentence and immediately smiled as she spoke.

"Got it. You should work hard on cultivation. Don't become a concubine," Free-and-Easy laughed and said.

"Do you like concubines or wives more" The eldest sister tilted her head, asking, "I prefer being a concubine, as a wife is not as good..."

“…” Free-and-Easy was speechless. The eldest sister really did say anything and everything. However, this seemed to be the norm—people who like taking concubines would usually do just that.

But if you marry both a wife and a concubine together, it's another story altogether.

Of course, Free-and-Easy didn’t say this last part; otherwise, he’d get eye-rolls from Soong Suixin and others.

"Ink Words, you’re off-topic again. Now that Free-and-Easy is leaving, we should give him a proper farewell," Soong Suixin reminded her.

“Right! Eldest sister, can’t you say something normal Like how much you’ll miss me and ask me to write more letters,” said Free-and-Easy.

"Miss you I’m not the Seventh Miss; why would I miss you. I’d rather miss Suixiu. However, you need to write a letter daily. The messenger birds are already usable now, so don’t forget," the eldest sister seemed unconcerned but also concerned, and it was hard to tell what she actually cared about.

"Alright, Eldest Sister’s farewell is over, next up." Free-and-Easy pulled the eldest sister aside and looked at Lone Star, wanting to hear his words of farewell.

"Return soon," said Lone Star simply.

"Understood!" Free-and-Easy smiled. "We can go now."

The next moment, he was about to mount the horse but was held back by Soong Suixin.

"You’re off again! We haven’t said our goodbyes," Soong Suixin tapped him and said irritably.

"Do you guys need it" Free-and-Easy asked.

"We are, after all, your fiancées by name. It needs to be done," replied Soong Suixin.

“Oh, then you say,” said Free-and-Easy indifferently.

"You... have messed me up so much that I don’t know what to say; return soon, we also need to go back and tell our family." Soong Suixin said.

"Tell them what" Free-and-Easy asked in confusion. It was normal for them to return, but this sentence made it seem like there was something they needed to convey concerning him.

"Of course about us," Soong Suixin rolled her eyes and said flirtatiously.

"... Are you guys serious about this" Xiaoyao was momentarily stunned. He had never taken such matters seriously because he thought these girls were just joking and didn't really mean to marry him.

The current situation seemed to indicate that Nangong Susan intended to be serious, which left him somewhat bewildered.

"Haha, look at you. Of course it's not about marriage; we're just going back for a bit. We've been here for so long and they must have worried sick. Your father is here, but ours are still there," Nangong Susuan patted Xiaoyao on the shoulder with a smile, suggesting that her earlier words were indeed a joke to see how Xiaoyao would react.

"You scared me half to death! If you really come through on this marriage talk, I'll leave you guys there," Xiaoyao said while patting his chest.

"You dare!" Nangong Susuan shouted. At the same time, Miss Three of House Nangong seemed to have also uttered a similar remark, glaring at Xiaoyao.

“What do you think” Xiaoyao asked without caring and turned it around on them.

The two sisters knew that he certainly would dare. Xiaoyao could do anything, and they were well aware of his capabilities. Especially in this matter, there was no burden for Xiaoyao to carry, so he wouldn't hesitate to act.

“Hmph!” The two Nangong sisters snorted.

"Alright, everyone has said their goodbyes, now it's my turn. Boss, Miss Big Sister, and the rest of you, take care of yourselves. Don’t push yourself too hard and put safety first. If anything happens, don't try to tough it out," Xiaoyao said.

Others He was categorized as such again.

Xiaoyao wasn’t just saying this casually; he felt that something might happen after this trip which could potentially cause some trouble for Guxing and others. However, it wouldn’t be life-threatening.

For this reason, Xiaoyao thought it would serve as a sort of training to remind them while also preparing some emergency items such as medicinal pills, equipment, etc., just in case.

"This is what we should say," Miss Big Sister said and glanced at Black Snow. "Be careful around the people close to you."

Black Snow remained silent; her intention was too obvious, or she might as well have pointed directly at herself. She believed that if she mentioned this point, Miss Big Sister would definitely point at her again. Thus, she chose silence.

She couldn’t beat them and Xiaoyao would help the others anyway; what else could she do but stay silent

"Brother, take care," Lingling said as she looked at Xiaoyao. Everyone had said their farewells, giving her a chance to say goodbye, since she was the youngest.

“You should behave yourself and learn more from your Sister Guxing. Don't be like Sister Mo Yu; she's quite a troublemaker,” Xiaoyao patted Lingling’s head with a smile.

"Yes!" Lingling nodded.

“What did you say” Miss Big Sister glared at Xiaoyao.

"Let's go, off to the Roaming Sect. By the way, if Lady Wang comes over, please entertain her for me. I reckon I’ll be back within three months." With that, Xiaoyao mounted his horse and headed out.

“Understood,” Miss Three of House Nangong said.

Wang Yanyu had already received news about Xiaoyao’s return and planned to meet him. However, since there was nothing urgent at the moment, she couldn’t be sent to the Roaming Sect just yet.

The Roaming Sect was a heretical sect; as a disciple of one of the top orthodox sects, Wang Yanyu couldn't casually enter heretical territories.

After all, it would only take several months. Xiaoyao thought that adding travel time both ways, three months should suffice at most, possibly extending to another month or two under normal circumstances.

Besides, due to Black Snow's eagerness, this trip to the Roaming Sect was made quickly with the fastest horses as they rode straight through without changing mounts. Xiaoyao had a way of keeping their stamina up, so travel time was greatly reduced.

Nothing major happened along the way, and after ten days from leaving Flowing Moon City, they arrived at the Roaming Sect's territory. However, reaching the destination would still take several more days' journey.

No mistake; arriving in the Roaming Sect’s domain didn't mean reaching their final destination. That was still far off.

The Roaming Sect wasn't just a small sect with a few mountain ranges but a super powerful sect and one of its kind. Even ordinary super sects had thousands of miles of territory, let alone the Roaming Sect.

Compared to a major nation with thousands of miles under it, the Roaming Sect's territory was vast without any other people’s properties within it; everything belonged internally. However, this internal didn't necessarily mean harmony and coexistence.

The Roaming Sect itself had numerous branches, much like how Magic Domain did, containing various factions big or small scattered across their territories.

However, in terms of scale, the Roaming Sect was significantly smaller than the Magic Domain. Moreover, this place didn’t have the darkness that the Magic Domain possessed since heretical sects weren't dark paths but stood between the dark and orthodox paths.

Thus, Xiaoyao felt no major differences as he entered the Roaming Sect; it was just more violent conflicts and some unreasonable people around. Most were indifferent to others' affairs.

However, if you didn't provoke others, nobody would come after you.
