Compared to before, Cauldron Haven is now undoubtedly the fairest city in this part of the void. No one dares to bully others or run rampant here, and no one dares to seek revenge or commit murder within Cauldron Haven.
The reason for this is that Cauldron Haven now has a Peace Inn. Having a Peace Inn is one thing, but the real key is its owner, Joe Di—a figure no one would dare provoke lightly.
Miles Silent, the City Lord of Cauldron Haven, felt only joy—none of the frustration of being constrained by Joe Di.
Compared to before, he could say he had landed in paradise. In the past, aside from the already fading Quadrant Immortal Continent, whenever anyone came to Cauldron Haven, he had to act like a humble servant. If disciples from even slightly larger sects behaved arrogantly in Cauldron Haven, he dared not speak up and had to follow along with a forced smile.
Now, except for Joe Di and the Peace Inn behind him, who in this part of the void would dare act recklessly in Cauldron Haven?
Those who came to Cauldron Haven seeking trouble have long since died, because Joe Di would never let them live. Even Night Shee, the master of Radiant Lake Palace—the top sect on Aurora Immortal Continent—could only face reincarnation before Joe Di. No, not even that; he didn’t even get the chance to reincarnate.
Although Miles Silent hadn’t witnessed this himself, far too many people had seen it happen.
Joe Di never meddled in Cauldron Haven’s affairs, and even his Peace Inn operated strictly by the rules.
That’s why, in Cauldron Haven, Miles Silent could finally be considered a true City Lord—not the puppet who could be scolded by anyone at any time.
Miles Silent had heard that Joe Di would soon return to Cauldron Haven, so he became even more cautious. He wanted Joe Di to see that he was doing a good job as City Lord.
Just as Shirley Pooler was about to speak, Sprout interjected, "Big Brother, thirty years ago, Second Brother Geng Ji arrived at Cauldron Haven..."
When Joe Di arrived outside Cauldron Haven, he was very satisfied with Miles Silent's management of the city.
Inside and outside Cauldron Haven, everything was in perfect order. The protective and killing arrays Joe Di had set up in the past had never been activated, proving that the city had remained safe after his departure.
As soon as Joe Di reached the gate of Cauldron Haven, Miles Silent, who had been waiting for him, immediately came forward to greet him, saying, "Emperor Di..."
"Mayor Silent, thank you for your hard work in keeping Cauldron Haven peaceful all these years," Joe Di said politely, cupping his fists in greeting.
Miles Silent quickly replied, "The city has been protected by the ironclad arrays set up by Emperor Di. I merely watched over it and cannot claim any hardship."
"Big Brother..." Tree Brother, Blackfire, and Changsun Huang rushed over eagerly. Joe Di did not see Quentin Pooler, but instead was greeted by Quentin's daughter, Shirley Pooler.
Blackfire's talent was indeed remarkable. In such a short time, he had advanced to a ninth-level Immortal Beast, and his cultivation was now stable. With his ability to tear through spatial domains, now that he was a ninth-level Immortal Beast, there was almost nothing in this Immortal Domain that could threaten him.
Joe Di could tell from Shirley Pooler's expression that she had something heavy weighing on her mind.
"Miss Shirley, is something troubling you? Is your father not in Cauldron Haven?" Joe Di asked in confusion. Since he had set up all the protective and forbidden arrays in the city, he knew immediately upon arrival that Quentin Pooler was not present.
Sprout quickly replied, "I heard Brother Geng Ji mention it. The place he came from was also the Quadrant Immortal Continent, but I have no idea where exactly."
"Didn't he leave a locator orb?"
Sprout hurriedly produced a locator orb and handed it to Joe Di. "Geng Ji left this. He said it was somewhere in the Quadrant Immortal Continent, but I have no idea where exactly."
Joe Di swept his divine sense into the locator orb. The image was clear, but just as Sprout said, he had no idea of its specific location, nor which part of the Quadrant Immortal Continent it was.
"Senior Joe..." Shirley Pooler bowed to Joe Di, her voice tinged with worry.
Joe Di understood what Shirley Pooler wanted to say and waved his hand. "There's no need to worry. I will definitely search for Geng Ji and your father. Stay at Harmony Inn and focus on your cultivation."
At this, Joe Di glanced at Miles Silent. "City Lord Miles, while I'm gone, I'll need you to look after Harmony Inn."
Miles Silent quickly assured, "Rest easy, Emperor Joe. Your instructions will be my top priority. I'll do my utmost to fulfill them."
Joe Di summoned Xiangnu, who had been cultivating in the True Spirit World. "Xiangnu, I had planned to stay in Cauldron Haven with you for a while before leaving, but now I must go. Stay here and cultivate with Brother Blackfire, Sprout, and Shirley Pooler. Strive to reach the Immortal Emperor stage soon. But remember, when you go out to temper yourself, you are forbidden to visit Moon Ruins Grave."

Joe Di had nearly told everyone around him: do not go to Moon Ruins Grave.
"Grandfather..." Xiangnu looked at the unfamiliar Void Immortal City and the unfamiliar people, a trace of worry in her eyes.
Upon hearing Xiangnu call Joe Di 'Grandfather,' all eyes turned to Joe Di and Xiangnu. Joe Di explained, "This is my granddaughter, Xiangnu. I found her during my recent travels and brought her here."
Seeing Blackfire about to speak, Sprout quickly stepped forward and patted his chest. "Sister Xiangnu, don't worry. Cultivating in Cauldron Haven is safe—no one dares to bully you. All it takes is one word from Old Sprout, and the whole city listens."
Blackfire promptly pushed Sprout aside. "Xiangnu, though I'm a generation older, I'm now a Ninth-Rank Immortal Fiend Beast. In other words, most Immortal Emperors are mere ants to me. Sprout's cultivation is too weak. Just follow me in your training. I have plenty of cultivation resources. Look at Arlo—he was just a minor Da Yi Immortal, but I personally helped him reach the Immortal Lord stage."
Xiangnu stared blankly at Sprout and Blackfire before her. The brother Ah Xi and sister Yu Mo she knew were both humble people—these two fiend beasts seemed rather odd by comparison.
"Sister Xiangnu, Cauldron Haven is very safe, and Harmony Inn is even safer. There are plenty of cultivation resources here. It's perfect for you to keep me company." Though her eyes were still red and swollen, Shirley Pooler walked over and took Xiangnu's hand.
She had lived here the longest and knew full well that Blackfire and Sprout were both unreliable fools.
"Friend Joe, arriving early is not as good as arriving at the right time. It seems I've come at just the right moment." As Joe Di prepared to use the teleportation array to return to the Quadrant Immortal Continent, the voice of Mo Louxue from Yaohua Snow Mountain rang out.
Along with Mo Louxue, Ai Qingbing also descended from the sky.
Ai Qingbing's gaze lingered on Joe Di for a moment before quickly looking away, her ears tinged with a faint blush.
