The Refiner System In Cultivation World - Chapter 14
After coming back Raven faced the dignified Dustin who said nothing but his eyes were filled with questions .
Raven had not any particular talent but his guts were commendable. Facing the silent pressure of a Peak Foundation realm expert , Raven boldly lied but his story was convincing to say the least.
He had already filled a mysterious figure called Raj in the minds of powerful people . The black market may be a secret organization but it was not a secret in the eyes of powerful experts who had eyes on every event happening inside their cities.
Thus it was impossible for them to not know the existence of Raj who was a master refiner and could refine pills , weapons and talismans by himself. Dustin may have been away from the City but Raven thought that he must have had kept up with news of new events inside the city . Even if it was not so then it was not a problem because Dustin would easily know about all the news circulating inside the city after he takes charge as the Governor .
Raven faked a childish expression and told Dustin that he had fortunately been under the tutelage of Raj and advanced leaps and bounds in cultivation through correct guidance and some pills to aid him . Dustin had Divine Sense so Raven just boldly riled up his qi and Dustin had a shocked expression on his usually calm and handsome face .
Raven also blamed the existence of Foundation Restoring pill on Raj and told the lie that he had recieved two pills for emergency times in future . Dustin was amazing as he still not completely believed Raven’s story after more than two hours of serious talk . Raven commended his instinct inwardly but was sure that once Dustin knows the news about Raj’s dealings with the black market , he would have no choice but to believe everything.
The father and son duo chatted for another one hour about Dustin’s past adventures but Dustin suddenly came up with the main point and his expression became solemn.
” Son , you have already reached the Level 9 of Qi condensation realm at the age of 13 . I’m proud of you but.. you will have to leave soon.
Coincidently the annual selection of Heavenly Element Sect is going to begin in three days and if you miss this one then you will have to wait for another one year . The sect can provide you with many resources which will help you to smoothly and quickly advance in realms . ”
Seeing that Raven had a sad look on his face ,Dustin’s heart felt warm because he was also unwilling to part with his son . He knows that the next time they meet maybe years would have passed by then . Dustin had great self control and discipline being a military man but currently he forgot about that and started drinking alcohol during the day .
Well Dustin was right about Raven currently feeling sad but he was wrong about one thing. Raven was not that much affected by the parting with Dustin. He was saddened more by the fact that he would have to leave the familiar city and familiar people . These people helped him accept the world and open his heart . The year Raven spent here in peace was more meaningful than his whole past life.
Raven left Dustin’s room and proceeded towards his own room in silence . Suddenly Raven heard Lily’s familiar and charming voice so his mood became better and a little smile returned on his handsome face .
” Lily, the meat , is it ready already ? ”
” Hehe.. young master already can see the plates and is asking the silly question .” Lily gave her usual bright smile and chuckled lightly .
Raven saw the beautiful scene and felt that the most he was going to miss was Lily and her delicious cooking .
Raven ate the dinner quietly alone inside his room which more than ten times larger than his shabby apartment back on earth . In past life he had been poor so longed for luxurious life . Thus this room was extremely good for his taste . Raven silently looked at all the corners and things inside the room and starting arranging his clothes .
He had stored all the necessary stuff inside his inventory and now only wanted to pack some extra robes . He had become a neat freak and changed his clothes twice a day normally.
The Heavenly Element Sect was a huge sect and was located inside a small world which was essentially a different space . The entrances to the space numbered more than ten and the nearest entrance was located in the small forest between Imperial city and Silverwind City . With Raven’s current speed he could reach there in just about three or four hours but he decided to leave now .
He never went outside the city except the Demon Beast Mountain so Raven planned to travel leisurely and appreciate the scenery on the way .
At night when Lily had went to sleep inside her room , Raven entered there stealthily and saw the cute figure wearing pajamas . She looked sexy and Raven appreciated the beauty for a while with his eyes .
He had several space bags with him which were given by the black market and the things were stored inside . The space inside one was small but was enough to fit more than ten thousand low grade spirit stones .
Raven placed the normal looking red leather bad besides Lily’s pillow with a letter and exited the mansion . He left through a secret entrance which he had made by himself so nobody knew about his abrupt departure.
Raven was simply not fond of sad departures so he chose to leave the city at night in secret . In the morning he would have to meet several familiar people and did not want to feel emotional.
Soon the huge East Gate was before him and Raven simply rushed out with full speed nodding at the guards . They wont suspect anything because in the past year Raven had left the city many times at night but they had no way to know that next time they would meet Raven would be more than 3 years later.
