Chapter 369 - One-Day Lecture
With the emperor and the former emperor guiding them, Jiu Shen and the three ladies went out of the imperial palace. Although Elyk was feeling emotional, he still put on a smile as he talked with Jiu Shen along the way.
"Sect Master Jiu Shen, please inform me if you decide to go back to the Crimson Fiend Continent. I have heard a lot about that place and I\'m very curious about how it looks like." Emperor Elyk smiled.
Jiu Shen merely nodded his head as he walked.
Seeing his lack of interest in continuing the topic, Emperor Elyk did not press him further and just led Jiu Shen\'s group towards the exit of the imperial palace.
"I\'ll send someone to notify you once I go back to the Crimson Fiend Continent. Farewell."
"Alright." Emperor Elyk nodded at Jiu Shen\'s words.
After getting the emperor\'s reply, Jiu Shen and the three girls tapped their feet on the ground and soared through the skies in a blink of an eye.
Swoosh!
Emperor Elyk and the old emperor stared at them for a while and when they could no longer see their shadow, the father and son went inside the imperial palace with serious gazes.

"Hey human, for how long are you gonna stay here?" Ice who was clinging onto Jiu Shen\'s shoulder in her human form asked in a soft voice.
Long Meili and Theia also stared at Jiu Shen when they heard Ice\'s question.
"Not for long. I didn\'t inform my subordinates about this, so they might be restless if I don\'t come back soon. I will stay here for a few days to check everyone\'s progress and also to monitor the continent. I\'d like to see if I can find something interesting here before I go back to the territory of the demons." Jiu Shen\'s schedule was tight this time, but he didn\'t feel disheartened because it has been a long time since he had a lot of things to do. Furthermore, he enjoyed the feeling of seeing his subordinates\' growth.
For the next few days, Jiu Shen went to the sword tower to observe every division. Everyone seemed to have grown a lot after the battle with the Crimson Sun Sect. It was especially true for Division Head Yang Zenke and his Blood Sword Division.
During the battle against the Crimson Sun Sect, they spearheaded the charge and experienced the most gruesome fight. Because of that event, everyone in the division changed and matured overnight. Even Yang Zenke\'s friend, Han Sen, who was known as the joker of their circle has now become more serious and dignified.
Jiu Shen was quite happy about everyone\'s progress, so he decided to give them more pointers about cultivation and sword techniques for one day. When this news was learned by everyone, all disciples of the sword tower came to listen to his teachings. They were eager to learn more from their sect master who was known as the strongest of the continent!
The spacious lecture hall was almost full when Jiu Shen walked inside.
Under the worshipping gazes of the disciples, he walked straight to the front and immediately started his lecture.
Everyone was engrossed as they listened to his teachings. Jiu Shen\'s words were filled with wisdom and experience, making those who were stumped in their cultivation feel enlightened. And when Jiu Shen began demonstrating his swordsmanship, almost everyone experienced breakthroughs in their comprehension!
And without anyone knowing, the one-day lecture was over.
"Eh? I thought only an hour has passed..."
"I think I\'ll reach another breakthrough if I cultivate tonight..."
"The sect master\'s teaching is full of detail and very refined..."
Many disciples had questions to ask, but Jiu Shen was already gone in the lecture hall.
"I didn\'t think you could say so many things at once. Your lecture even lasted a day." Theia gave Jiu Shen a rare smile. Ice who was standing beside her nodded her head repeatedly.
"Master, you look great when you\'re teaching the disciples." Long Meili praised him with an admiring look on her face.
Jiu Shen shook his head as he chuckled lightly. "Enough. I discovered an interesting person near here when I used my spiritual power earlier. This guy is the strongest person I\'ve seen in the Profound Dragon Continent..."
The three girls were shocked when they heard his words. The strongest person of the entire Profound Dragon Continent? They suddenly felt curious about the person that Jiu Shen has mentioned.
"Is this person stronger than you, master?" Long Meili asked curiously. In her mind, Jiu Shen was the strongest individual, but when Jiu Shen mentioned this person, she sensed the slight admiration in his voice.
Jiu Shen laughed and shook his head. "Of course not. This guy is only at the peak stage of the Origin God Realm and he only has a few hundred years left to live in this world. I can\'t believe I failed to notice him before..."
A few hundred years wasn\'t long for experts at their level.
"Hearing your tone, there must be something special about this guy." Theia glanced at Jiu Shen with an inquisitive look.
"Not so special, but if I like him, I might give him a surprise..." Jiu Shen smiled mysteriously. It wasn\'t a problem for him to help experts at the peak stage of the Origin God Realm achieve a breakthrough. He had a wealth of experience after living for so many years...
Meanwhile, in an old and abandoned cemetery in the periphery of the Silver Wing Empire, a thin and blind old man was cleaning a tombstone with a broom. It was unknown how the blind old man was able to see the dirt on the tombstone.
Suddenly, the old man sneezed. He then slowly wiped the snot forming inside his nose with the hem of his worn-out shirt.
"I\'ve become so old that even with my cultivation I still get sick... Sigh.." His lonesome and aged voice echoed within the quiet tombstone.
