Xia Feng watched Liu Chan furiously breaking through at the crater, a smile playing on his lips.
The people around him, both men and women, would never betray him.
Xia Feng was quite accurate when it came to judging people.
As for those he had controlled, betrayal was impossible even if they wanted to.
Xia Feng's thoughts drifted back to Earth. It had been a long time since he had last returned.
He wondered how his sister was doing.
A sudden thought sprouted in Xia Feng's mind: he should go back before his memories were fully restored.
Xia Feng feared that if something happened after his memories returned, he might never have the chance to see Xia Lin again.
Therefore, he had to return to Earth first and make complete arrangements for Xia Lin. Only then could he fully prepare himself to contend for the Heavenly Dao.
Although Xia Feng had spent a considerable amount of time in the Saint Realm, only half a month had passed on Earth.
As Xia Feng was lost in his thoughts, Liu Chan's forehead began to bead with sweat, showing signs of an imminent breakthrough.
Xia Feng flew behind Liu Chan and touched a point on her back, lending her a helping hand to accelerate her breakthrough.
Liu Chan had already reached the bottleneck of her breakthrough, which was why Xia Feng chose to intervene.
This would not only avoid any negative impact on Liu Chan but also significantly reduce her suffering.
Boom...
Liu Chan felt as if another vast door had been opened within her, and her surroundings instantly became much clearer. An endless stream of power flowed throughout her body.
"Young Master, Chan'er has broken through," Liu Chan exclaimed with joy, opening her eyes.
"Mm, very good. Take some time to stabilize your realm, and then I will help you break through to the Great Perfection of the Saint Venerable. If there's an opportunity, I will assist you in breaking through to Saint Emperor," Xia Feng said with a satisfied nod.
"Young Master, Chan'er isn't particularly interested in breakthroughs. Chan'er only wishes to stay by Young Master's side forever. I implore Young Master not to leave me alone in the Saint Realm like in the previous life," Liu Chan said, a tear escaping her eye.
Liu Chan had already waited for one lifetime and did not wish to miss this one.
Xia Feng was deeply moved by her words and nodded heavily, "Chan'er, rest assured, you will always be by my side in this lifetime."
Xia Feng finished speaking and gently stroked Liu Chan's hair.
Liu Chan's face flushed, and she casually took Xia Feng's hand, nodding with utmost seriousness, "Chan'er is willing to serve Young Master forever and will never leave Young Master again."
Receiving Xia Feng's affirmation, Liu Chan was happier than anyone.
This was because it was Xia Feng's acknowledgment of her.
Regardless of anything else, Xia Feng's words brought immense satisfaction and joy to Liu Chan.
"Alright, the road ahead is still long, and you must also improve your strength to be of greater help to me," Xia Feng consoled her.
"Mm, Chan'er will definitely not disappoint Young Master."
Liu Chan happily agreed. To her, Xia Feng's words were like ironclad imperial decrees.
Whatever Xia Feng said, Liu Chan would unconditionally obey.
"Then let's go. I've decided to leave the Saint Realm for a while." Xia Feng's decision was sudden, and he was ready to depart immediately.
Returning to Earth was a simple matter for Xia Feng; the Donghuang Bell could send him back directly.
"Young Master, aren't you going to search for the seventh jade pendant?" Liu Chan asked, startled.
"There are some matters I need to attend to and settle before I can undertake those tasks," Xia Feng replied, his thoughts drifting back to Earth.
It was time to return to Earth and see everyone.
No one knew what the future held, but the people present needed to be settled first.
