"Come to my cave abode."
The Azure Emperor's voice reached their ears. Exchanging a glance, they quickened their pace toward their master's cave abode.
"Master."
"Master."
They called out in unison, their gazes fixed on the Azure Emperor sipping his tea.
"Yun Yuan, this is your birthday gift from me." The Azure Emperor took out an object and handed it to him.
"Thank you, Master." Muchen reached out to accept it, offering a respectful thanks.
"Today marks your fifteenth birthday and the day you descend the mountain. Over these years, I have taught you all I can. What remains must be achieved through your own efforts."
The Azure Emperor spoke slowly, watching the two of them. "When you journey forth in the world, be cautious in all matters. Should you encounter insurmountable difficulties, you may always return to Yunxiao Mountain to seek your master."
