Since he had settled the burning issue at hand, Tang Tian was free of worries, and happily released the little girl and Di Heng Zhan. Ling Xu had no patience for that, and went out to practise by himself.
“Don’t worry, this godlike young lad makes good his word. But, you must grab the time to discuss, our itinerary is packed!”
Contrary to Di Heng Zhan ashened looks, the little girl resumed her calm quickly, the moment she heard Tang Tian’s “itinerary”, her eyes lit up, “Itinerary? Where are you going? Is it an adventure?”
“Southern Cross Constellation.” Tang Tian explained.
“Where’s that?” The little girl was clueless.
Tang Tian gestured, “Somewhere very very far away! Erm, you are still young, you will know when you grow up.”
The little girl cast Tang Tian a look of despise, and took out a thick book, “Southern Cross Constellation, let me see.”
Tang Tian curiously moved closer, the book was filled with all sorts of constellations, and all sorts of complex routes, which made Tang Tian dizzy, and was left speechless, “What’s this? Seems formidable!”
“It is formidable!” The little girl replied without raising her head, “This is the Star Map that my teacher drew, there’s all sorts of routes on it, including some unknown ancient routes.”
On hearing that, Tang Tian was instantly attracted, “Can you find Southern Cross Constellation?”
The little girl replied impatiently, “Don’t be noisy, can’t you see I’m searching!”
Tang Tian suddenly realized, on this book, the locations of the constellations, would move at an extremely slow speed. If not for his sharp eye power, and astute senses, it would have been hard to notice.
“Eh! They can move?” Tang Tian was like a curious baby, and was much astonished.
“That’s right, Teacher Yu Sen once mentioned, each Star in the Heaven’s Road, their locations, are slowly changing.” The little girl’s tone was haughty, “Teacher Yu Sen, is an extremely renowned astrologist!”
Tang Tian had a look of approval, “No wonder, to be able to be your teacher together with me, he does seem pretty powerful.”
The little girl stared with eyes wide opened, looked at Tang Tian in disbelief, and replied after a moment, “The only thing that you surpassed Teacher Yu Sen in, is your thick-skin!”
“Flattered, flattered!” Tang Tian was jubilant, and was not in the least ashamed of it, rather he was quite proud of it.
The little girl stroked her forehead, she felt that this experience, was the darkest period in her life. Alright, people will always have to face their dark period in life. The little girl sighed, and cast her glance on the Star Map once again.
“Found it!”
After a while, the little girl was spirited, but very astonished, “It’s really very far!”
“Let me see!” Tang Tian clamoured over impatiently.
“Let me calculate.” The little girl muttered, “Need to cross at least 20 constellations, it’s really far.”
Tang Tian stared at the complex route intently, and fervently tried to memorize it, while saying, “Is this thing accurate? Don’t be like that uncle who’s so not dependable!”
Bing, “… …”
The little girl snorted, “Of course it’s accurate! It’s a master level Star Map, you can’t get this in the market!”
“Wow, that’s formidable!” Tang Tian was amazed, and while the little girl was all smug, he snatched it over, and said all righteously, “Let the teacher study and research, once I’m done I’ll return to you.”
The little girl was stunned, it was the first time in her life, that someone actually snatched something away from her hands.
“Alright!” Tang Tian patted the dazed little girl’s head, and said kindly, “You can meet up with your bodyguard now, and then confirm the time of the adventure.”
After which, Tang Tian vanished completely.

The female bodyguard stared in disbelief at the Princess and Di Heng Zhan before her, and the Planet Master beside, had an odd expression too. They had come with such fanfare, but before they even started, the Princess had showed up before them.
Di Heng Zhan glanced at the Planet Master, and waved his hands, “You guys go out first!”
The Planet Master instantly came back to his senses, and hurriedly exclaimed, “Yes!”
Although Di Heng Zhan’s abilities were similar to his, he dared not disobey the other party’s orders. Back in Wu Hou government, although he was still in control like before, but Di Heng Zhan’s one word could make his life very miserable.
He carefully left the room and shut the door.
The female bodyguard now then reacted, her eyes became foggy, and instantly rushed over, “Princess, you’ve suffered… …”
On seeing Qing Luan’s true feelings, the little girl was touched, and softly said, “I’m alright, I didn’t suffer, but this time, I may have implicated you guys.”
“It’s good that you are alright, it’s good that you are alright.” Qing Luan spoke incoherently.
Di Heng Zhan revealed a bitter smile, “We have created big trouble this time!”
Qing Luan’s emotions havr settled by now, upon hearing Di Heng Zhan’s words, she was surprised, “What kind of big trouble?”
Di Heng Zhan had always been brave and fearless, it was the first time she heard him mention “big trouble” personally.
Di Heng Zhan described the incident of getting a teacher, and Qing Luan was instantly stupefied. After a while, she returned to her senses, and screamed furiously, “What right does he have to be the Princess’s teacher? So it was the doing of that fellow! I was still wondering why he looked so familiar when I saw him that day, so it’s him! It’s him! It’s him!”
Qing Luan continuously rambled “it’s him”, her fury uncontainable.
Swoosh, she stood up, her face furious, and gritted her teeth, “No way! We can’t let him off like this!”
