Chapter 544 Qing Xuan Cave (1/2)

This mace was made entirely of refined steel, an extraordinary material. Shen Lian did not kill the demon tiger completely because he intended to use this material to forge his sword. Otherwise, Shen Lian could have exterminated his form and soul in just a one palm technique, regardless of how strong the demon was.

Wen Zhong was well aware that his cultivation method was different from Shen Lian's, as was his way of doing things. He was truly angry.

As Ah Lian witnessed how Shen Lian had defeated the Chong Hou Tiger King, she instantly kowtowed to Shen Lian while holding her daughter, as her husband was also killed by the demon king.

Shen Lian accepted Ah Lian's kowtow with no reservation and said as she got up, ”I am going to forge my instrument in the mountains. If you dare not return to the family of Wuzhong, you can follow by my side for a while. I will teach you the breathing techniques, which should be sufficient for you and your daughter to live a peaceful life. As for your future, I cannot promise anything.”

As indecisive as Ah Lian was, she knew that staying with Shen Lian was far better than returning to her tribe. Besides, Shen Lian's exceptional techniques put her at ease, and at least Shen Lian would not covet anything from her based on his status. Since Shen Lian is someone inimitable, he does not need to covet anything from a commoner, putting Ah Lian at ease.

So she replied, ”Ah Lian will never forget your great deeds to us, great celestial teacher.”

Shen Lian waved his sleeve, a tornado rose instantaneously from the ground and traveled towards the demon king's cave, followed by the sounds of rustling and swooshing. A quarter of an hour later, the tornado exited the cave. The tornado was translucent when it was entering the cave, however, it becomes completely filthy black when it exited, one could imagine how much filth there was in there.

Shen Lian rose his arm again, and directed the gush to the back of the mountains, and then released a clear stream of water into the cave for a thorough cleansing, subsequently lighted it up, turning it into a refreshing environment.

Then he proceeded to say, ”There are a lot of houses in there. You may choose one for your temporary stay.”

Ah Lian was greatly thankful, as she never imagined that a celestial being like Shen Lian would be so thoughtful.

Suddenly, she remembered that she never knew this celestial teacher's name after such a long time, so she asked, ”Celestial Teacher, I still do not know who to address you as.”

Shen Lian thought for a while. He opened his hand, the mace immediately landed on his palm. Shen Lian walked to the cave, replacing the previous name with words –'Qing Xuan Cave'.

Though in a different world, one should never forget their own origins. He replied, ”You may call me Qing Xuan”.

When he was in the earth and stars of Qing Xuan, his Daoist name was Qing Xia, which reminded him of the Qing Xia Temple where he traveled from. Now his Daoist name was Qing Xuan, which would remind him of the cultivations under Qing Xuan.

Only he himself would know of this intention, no one else.

Ah Lian memorized these two words by heart, and had a good look at the writings of 'Qing Xuan Cave'. She guessed that the two words among them should read Qing Xuan.

Later, Ah Lian went into the cave and Shen Lian remained outside.

Three days had passed. Ah Lian realized that Celestial Teacher Qing Xuan never entered the cave. Initially, she thought that the celestial teacher was avoiding gossips, which she eventually found out was not true.
