“Hmm?” Li Fan turned his head to look at Manager Zhao.

Facing the legendary Immortal Teacher, Manager Zhao couldn’t help but feel a bit nervous.

He chose his words carefully and delicately asked, “Esteemed Immortal, it seems that you have quite a good relationship with Master He?”

Li Fan was about to reply when he suddenly remembered something. After pondering for a moment, he finally said, “I have been acquainted with Daoist He for about forty years, and he has taken good care of me. I was attending to some matters and didn’t know about his death. Today, seeing his memorial tablet was reallv shocking.”

“I can only pay my respects with a stick of incense…”

At this, Li Fan shook his head and sighed.

Manager Zhao also sighed, “From the day I learnt about Master He’s demise and set up a memorial hall for him, it has been twenty-six days. You are the first and only one to come to pay respects.”

“Dozens of Immortal Teachers on the island have arrived, either to search for his relics or to vie for the position of Guardian Immortal of Liuli Island.”

“Seeing the newly appointed Guardian Immortal assuming office, my position as manager is hard to maintain.”

“I have been unable to fulfill Master He’s orders, which has left me feeling guilty.”

“Fortunately, I met you today.” Manager Zhao looked relieved.

“Daoist He’s orders?” Li Fan was stunned.contemporary romance

“Yes. Master He left something in my care before his death, instructing me to give it to the first Daoist who came to mourn him after his death,” Manager Zhao answered truthfully.

“How could he entrust something to a mortal like you?” Li Fan asked, taken aback by Manager Zhao’s answer.

“I was fortunate enough to save Master He’s life many years ago. He wanted to take me under his wing to cultivate, but I was afraid of the hardships of Taoism and only asked for a minor position.”

“Over the years, I have been serving by Master He’s side. Therefore, he trusted me greatly.” As he spoke, Manager Zhao’s face showed a mix of pride and sadness.

It seemed like there was indeed such an incident.

Li Fan had heard about this incident from Manager Zhao in his previous life.

Li Fan nodded in agreement.

“Moreover, leaving it with me is quite safe. After all, who would think that an

Immortal Teacher’s relics would be entrusted to a mortal? The Immortal Teachers who have come these past days have never looked at me directly…” Manager Zhao stopped abruptly, realizing he might be speaking out of turn.

He quickly turned around and retrieved a small square box from under Master He’s memorial tablet.

The small box seemed to isolate divine consciousness. Even when Li Fan was standing in front of it, he didn’t notice it.

“The relic of Master He lies inside this box. I don’t know what it is used for,” Manager Zhao said nervously as he handed over the box.

Li Fan opened the box to find a talisman inscribed with the character ‘B’.

It looked familiar.

Wasn’t it…

Li Fan took out an identical one from his storage ring, the only difference being the aura on the talisman.

It was unmistakably the Passage Talisman that every foreign cultivator needed to enter and exit the Ten Thousand Immortals Island for the first time.

Li Fan remembered when Master He introduced him to it, saying this talisman was worth 100 contribution points.

But, what’s the use of this?

Li Fan was a little puzzled for a moment.

However, he still put the wooden box away.

Seeing the somewhat nervous Manager Zhao, Li Fan considered and said, “I’ll speak on your behalf to the new Guardian Immortal. But I can’t guarantee that your position can be retained.”

Hearing this, Manager Zhao was overjoyed and knelt down immediately, repeatedly kowtowing.

Li Fan waved his hand and flew away.

Manazer Zhao continued to kneel on the ground, darinz not to move.

After a while, he slowly got up.

Looking at Master He’s memorial tablet, he said softly.

“I finally managed to get rid of this hot potato. These days, seeing Immortal

Teachers flying around above my head, I haven’t been able to sleep well at all.”

“The man just now told the truth, and he was the first to come and mourn you.

Entrusting your relics to him satisfies your request.”

“I no longer have any unease.”

After a long silence, Manager Zhao whispered, “Cultivation, in the end, leads to death earlier than me. There is no one to collect your remains.”

“It’s really meaningless.”

Holding the wooden box, Li Fan entered the Island Protection Array and met the unfamiliar cultivator again.

The stranger was called Ning Wenxing, the newly appointed Guardian of Liuli Island after a series of negotiations.

Li Fan didn’t disclose the relationship between Manager Zhao and Master He, he only mentioned that Manager Zhao was an old acquaintance and asked if he could retain his position as manager of Liuli Island’s wealth.

It was just a mortal’s position, and after thinking for a moment, Yu Wenxing nodded in agreement.

Li Fan thanked him.

After exchanging Communication Talismans, Li Fan hastily returned to the Tianxuan Mirror.

After some searching, Li Fan finally understood the use of the Passage Talisman.

In addition to being a pass to enter the Ten Thousand Immortals Island, the talisman could also serve as a voucher for depositing and withdrawing items.

The items were not stored in the Tianxuan Mirror, but in a place called the “Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion”.

The items usually stored were not particularly valuable.

They were mostly inheritances that cultivators left for their mortal relatives just in case something happened to them.

Only after the cultivator’s death could the mortal relatives use the talisman to retrieve the inheritance.

So, the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion wasn’t on Ten Thousand Immortals Island, it was on Youlan Island in the north of the Cloud Sea.

Having understood the use of the talisman, Li Fan wasted no more time, he rushed to Youlan Island and finally retrieved Master He’s relic.

It was a jade scroll.

At first, Li Fan thought it was some kind of cultivation technique.

It was only after he had gone through the content that he understood. The jade scroll contained an unfinished work by Master He.

“Detailed Explanation of Hundred Channels Formation.”

The book detailed Master He’s special insights into array techniques over the years as well as some innovative concepts.

Along with the book was a message from Master He.

It said his whole life was dedicated to the study of array techniques.

After decades of painstaking effort and trials, he had just managed to complete more than half of “Detailed Explanation of Hundred Channels Formation.”

Although the risk of this trip to the Ancient Cave Mansion was not high, he couldn’t help but worry about the worst-case scenario.

If a mishap occurred and he died, that would be a minor matter. However, he feared that his life’s work, “Detailed Explanation of Hundred Channels Formation,” would collect dust and be forever buried.

Therefore, he planned ahead, hoping that the cultivator who obtained the talisman would pass “Detailed Explanation of Hundred Channels Formation” to any Array Master of Ten Thousand Immortals Island to complete

At the end, Master He couldn’t help but grumble a bit.

He talked about the merits of his cultivation technique, “The Mountain-Seating Secret.”

Unfortunately, it was truly difficult to practice.

If it weren’t for this, he wouldn’t have had to take the risk and venture into the Ancient Cave Mansion to change his technique.

“The Mountain-Seating Secret? Daoist He, you really did give me a hard problem.”

Putting away the jade scroll, an inexplicable glint flickered in Li Fan’s eyes..
