Transmigrated into a Grandpa, Embracing the Laid-Back Life

Chapter 405: Beyond the Mountain Gate

Su Ming clutched that heavy jade talisman, feeling his eyes burn with heat.

He suddenly stood up and bowed deeply, profoundly, to Xuanheng Zhenren.

This time, he said nothing.

A thousand words could not match the weight of this single bow.

“Mm.”

Xuanheng accepted his bow, his expression still cold and distant.

“Go on.”

He waved his hand and closed his eyes again, as if everything that had just happened was nothing more than a trivial matter.

“Disciple takes his leave.”

Su Ming bowed once more, then stepped back carefully, one step at a time, retreating from Star Pivot Hall.Only when he stepped through the hall’s threshold and the warm sunlight bathed his body did he feel as though he had returned from a frozen sea of stars back to the mortal world.

He gripped the Grand Teleportation Talisman tightly in his hand, his palm warm from the contact.

After bidding farewell to his Master, Xuanheng, Su Ming did not immediately return to Gazing Star Cliff.

He went to Formation Peak’s library. With his True Disciple token, he passed through unimpeded to the second floor.

Here were stored the core texts of the path of formations, along with handwritten records from generations of elders.

Su Ming did not be greedy. He only took the first ten books from the reading list his Master Xuanheng had given him, planning to study them on the road.

On the following sixth day, Su Ming did not go out again.

Within the cave dwelling at Gazing Star Cliff, silence reigned.
