Chapter 574 - Promise (1/2)
”Azure? Is that your nickname?” Yuan asked her, as it was a weird name to have for someone part of the Wang Family.
Azure chuckled like a fairy before speaking, ”No, that's my real name. I belong to the Wang Family, but I do not share the same blood as them. In other words, I was adopted, and Azure was what the kids at the orphanage would call me, so I stuck to it.”
'She's also adopted?' Yuan's mouth opened a little from surprise.
This is the first time that he can relate to someone so well. Not only were they both orphans, but both of them became sick out of the blue and without any logical explanation, not to mention that they also played the zither.
It was almost as if Yuan was standing in front of a mirror right now.
”Anyways, I have to go now. It was nice speaking with you, Yuan. If you are free in the future, let's play the zither together. I don't normally play outside, but since you're here, I will come outside more often.”
”Okay.” Yuan immediately nodded.
”How about tomorrow?” She then asked.
”Same time?” Yuan asked.
”Same time.”
”Then it's a promise. See you tomorrow.”
Azure then picked up her zither and left the place shortly after, but she didn't forget to wave at Yuan before she left.
Once Azure left the scene, Yuan returned to the immortal caves.
”Where did you go? You've been gone all night according to Sebastian.” Chu Liuxiang asked him when he returned.
”Hm? I woke up early and couldn't go back to sleep, so I went outside for some fresh air,” he said.
Chu Liuxiang raised her eyebrows slightly, but she didn't question him any further.
”What are we going to do today?” She then asked.
”I am going to take a look at the Six Spiritual Families' cultivation techniques and see if they have anything interesting,” he said.
Chu Liuxiang shook her head and said, ”Brother Yuan, I suggest that you don't accept any cultivation techniques from them.”
”Eh? Why not?” Yuan immediately asked.
”Because you'll owe them if you do. Even though you won the competition and are entitled to a cultivation technique, I wouldn't accept anything from them if you do not intend on joining their faction, as that will only make it harder for you to leave them.” Chu Liuxiang explained to him.
”That makes sense…” Yuan nodded.
And he continued, ”Well, I am mostly going there to see what they have, but I will keep that in mind. I doubt they'll have any cultivation technique that I cannot find in Cultivation Online.”
Sometime later, they went to get some breakfast at the Silver Restaurant before making their way to the building that stored the cultivation techniques after asking around for directions.
”This place is smaller than I had anticipated,” Yuan mumbled in a low voice as they approached a small pagoda that only had one floor.
