Chapter 5197: Farewell Editor: Misty Cloud Translations "Come to my cave abode." The Azure Emperor’s voice reached their ears. Exchanging a glance, they quickened their pace toward their master’s cave abode. "Master." "Master." They called out in unison, their gazes fixed on the Azure Emperor sipping his tea. "Yun Yuan, this is your birthday gift from me." The Azure Emperor took out an object and handed it to him. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎 "Thank you, Master." Muchen reached out to accept it, offering a respectful thanks. "Today marks your fifteenth birthday and the day you descend the mountain. Over these years, I have taught you all I can. What remains must be achieved through your own efforts." The Azure Emperor spoke slowly, watching the two of them. "When you journey forth in the world, be cautious in all matters. Should you encounter insurmountable difficulties, you may always return to Yunxiao Mountain to seek your master." Hearing his parting words, a pang of sadness washed over both of them. Looking at their master before them, their eyes reddened slightly as they nodded. "Your disciples will remember your teachings." They had trained under their master since childhood—indeed, they had spent more time with him than with their own parents. His kindness was never spoken aloud, yet they understood: his strict teachings and demanding standards were all for their own good. Now, as they prepared to descend the mountain, a deep reluctance welled up within them. "What are your plans after descending the mountain?" the Azure Emperor inquired. The siblings exchanged a glance. Finally, Yue’er spoke: "Master, Big Brother Xiao once said he wished to travel with me, and I agreed. But these years, we never left the mountain. So, some time ago, I sent word to him. He will be waiting for us in the city." Muchen replied, "Master, my parents are still traveling and haven’t returned. I too wish to find a place to wander, but I won’t be joining Yue’er." "What? Brother, you won’t come with me?" Yue’er was slightly surprised, having assumed he would travel with her and Big Brother Xiao. Muchen shook his head. "You’re grown now, not the little girl you once were. I trust you can protect and care for yourself. Besides, with Xiao Junyan by your side, you won’t face danger on your travels. I wish to venture out alone." Listening to their conversation, the Azure Emperor glanced at the two of them and said, "As you begin your journey down the mountain, it would be best not to stay within this realm." "What does the Master mean?" Yue’er looked at him. "This world holds countless realms, both large and small. There are many places you haven’t yet explored. You could travel to other realms and see what they hold. You might gain unexpected insights." As he spoke, the Azure Emperor flipped his hand, handing two objects to the pair. "This is the Qiankun Teleportation Compass. With it, even if your strength is insufficient, you can pierce through the barrier formations of various realms and reach places you’ve never been." The two took them and examined them, immediately saying, "Thank you, Master!" "Go now! I must begin my seclusion." The Azure Emperor spoke slowly, standing up and turning to face away from them with his hands behind his back. "Master, while your disciples are away, please take good care of yourself. I will return to visit you after my travels," Yue’er said, kneeling down and respectfully kowtowing three times. "Take care, Master," Muchen also knelt and kowtowed three times.
