Di Vanguard of Jadegate City

Joe Di had been teleported from the Central Realm, and he understood just how difficult it was to travel between the two continents. Even he could not construct a teleportation array that spanned these realms. Moreover, he was certain that when he arrived, the teleportation array in the Central Realm had already recorded his aura. He could return through it, but bringing Hiram Hai to the Central Realm was simply impossible.

With this in mind, Joe Di spoke directly, "Daoist Hai, I was able to come from the Central Realm because of a special status I possess. Here is my proposal: I will wait here for three months. When the powerful cultivator from the Central Realm who recruits talented disciples arrives, I will ask him if there is another way."

Joe Di had left Debbie Di here, and asked Hiram Hai to look after her. No matter what, he owed Hiram Hai this favor. He guessed that Hiram Hai treated him well precisely because he wanted to go to the Central Realm.

"In that case, thank you very much, Daoist Di." Hiram Hai quickly stood up and bowed in gratitude.

If it were an ordinary matter, he would never have been so insistent as to ask Joe Di to stay for three months. But the chance to go to the Central Realm was far too important to him. Even if it meant thickening his skin, he could not refuse.

As the two conversed, Sean Yi, who had left earlier, returned and handed Joe Di a jade token and a map jade slip, saying, "Senior, the sanctuary has been found. This jade token is the ownership sigil, allowing you free access. This jade slip shows the location of the sanctuary."

"Thank you," Joe Di accepted the two items and stood up. Debbie Di's cultivation was too weak, so she needed to enter seclusion and train immediately. He also planned to set up some protective measures around the sanctuary.

"Then I shall not disturb you further, Daoist Di. If you need anything, as long as I, Hiram Hai, can help, please feel free to ask." Hiram Hai also stood up, ready to see Joe Di out.

Joe Di clasped his fists in thanks again, "Thank you, Daoist Hai. I have one more request. I have a friend named Qu Xiaoshu, who used to live in Pearl City. After the Di Family incident, his family relocated. Please help me investigate where the Qu family moved to."

"That is a simple matter. As soon as I have news, I will let you know immediately," Hiram Hai said, taking the matter upon himself. For him, this was indeed no trouble at all.
