Chapter 585: Sincere
The next morning, Li Pin set out for Mountain Qingyuan without informing anyone.
Shi Yiren, Shi Keqing, Fang Zhiqian, and the others sensed his departure. However, mindful of his earlier instructions and the very real threat posed by the Void Emperor, no one followed him.
Less than three minutes into his journey, a man in his thirties approached with a friendly smile. "Mr. Li, hello. I'm Ye Fusheng, from the military. If you need anything during your stay in Xiya, please let me know. We'll do everything we can to assist you."
It was clear that Xiya couldn't ignore the presence of a tier ten martial artist like Li Pin.
Li Pin didn't respond and continued walking toward Mountain Qingyuan. Seeing this, Ye Fusheng had no choice but to follow, though he was clearly uneasy.
As for stopping him... Bai Xuheng's fate served as a stark reminder to Ye Fusheng that he, a mere tier four martial artist, lacked the courage to stand in the way of a tier ten powerhouse.

At the foot of Mountain Qingyuan, Baili Qingfeng was already informed of Li Pin's arrival. He waited in his courtyard, flipping through a book.
When Li Pin appeared, Baili Qingfeng nodded and said, "Senior, if you've come to fight, I won't engage."
He added, "The world is beautiful. It's not all about fighting and killing. We should calm our hearts, appreciate the truth, kindness, and beauty around us, and learn to enjoy life."
Li Pin studied him. Instead of saying the key phrases, he asked, "Is something troubling you?"
