Chapter 210: Familiar Face (1/2)
In the middle of a thicket of forest, eleven figures enjoyed their time. One of the figures flew around trees, coming out of the forest and going back in.
”You're still learning, so be careful okay?” A twenty-year-old man called out to the flying figure.
”A Heavenly Establishment cultivator, albeit a young one, won't get hurt from something like falling down,” said a female that walked next to the first man.
”You can't do anything about Ed's worried nature!” The flying angel, Merry, said as she flapped her wings a couple of times. All of Ed's companions nodded after her words. Ed, Emilia, Bella, and the eight monsters walked towards the port city.
”She is my cute little sister; of course I'll be worried about her!” Ed said in defense of himself.
”Kyah!” Bella screamed as she hit her head on a tree branch. She wasn't hurt, but the sudden incident caused her to lose control of her QI.
She plummeted down to the ground. ”See what I meant?” Ed showed a triumphant face, as his advice was on point. Suika moved quickly, and before Bella could hit the ground, she transformed into a gigantic slimeball, breaking Bella's fall.
”Thank you Suika!” Bella hugged the slime girl as she was saved from a fall. Suika returned the hug, and the two little girls looked as cute as one could imagine.

”The land from here on is barren and doesn't have any interesting things to see. Bella, I'll take us directly to the port city now, okay?”
”Okay! I've already seen enough on the way here!”
Ed could have flown to any of the continents before to prepare for his trip and make it a short one. But, since he was taking Bella with him, he wanted to show her the outside world that she never saw before.
Appearing inside of the port city, Ed caused the citizens' hearts to skip some beats. He teleported outside of the city walls. But, as he walked in, the guards couldn't move, the citizens couldn't move, and soon, the city's lord came outside to greet him. The reason? Ed didn't recall his monsters into card form. Ten Immortal Establishment cultivators, eight of them monsters, and one Heavenly Establishment little girl.
”Esteemed Elder, may we please know the reason for your visit?” The city lord seemed to be sweating buckets, but he couldn't do anything that would cause Ed to be enraged. He knew that if they wanted to, Ed and the others could uplift the city in a matter of seconds.
”Please, stand at east. We're simply on a sightseeing tour. We won't do anything in the city, and we will be leaving on the next ship going to the Central Continent.”
”That can be arranged, sir! Please let us accommodate all your needs! GUARDS! Please take the esteemed Elder to all the best places in the city. Afterward, have him come by to my mansion. Esteemed Elder, I'll talk with the highest authority responsible for the ships and I'll see that they won't leave until you decide to leave!”
Ed could guess the reason for this treatment. He was an Immortal establishment, but he wasn't the only one in the world. If the city lord had to come to greet every strong person ever, he wouldn't live for long due to the stress. 'News travels fast after all' Ed was hailed as the hero of the Bloody war, and it would be foolish for people not to know about him by now. The man who, singlehandedly, killed all five commanders of Blood sect.
He and his monsters had become walking legends.
