Even if it's a baby, it's still a girl. Although the child hasn't been born yet, Xiu Yi was already planning far ahead—no way, he must pave a good path for the child.

After investigating, Xiu Yi discovered that the Jade Clear Sect was actually a hidden faction with deep roots, incredibly difficult to deal with. But that wasn't the main issue—after all, even the toughest person wouldn't strike someone who approached with kindness. Plus, there was the Blade Warrior connection.

But let's not forget, it's still a hidden faction. How could a child grow up in such an environment? Over time, wouldn't they become disconnected from the modern world? Xiu Yi, who had grown up on a remote planet, deeply understood the struggles of such an upbringing. No matter what, he couldn't let Brother Feng's child grow up in such a place.

Kevin turned to Xiu Yi and said, "What's wrong? Thinking about your Brother Feng again?"

"Ah, let's prepare to leave tomorrow."

"Destination?"

"The Jade Clear Sect. I've decided to investigate."

"Investigate the Jade Clear Sect? That place should be off-limits. Hidden factions aren't that simple."

"I'm aware of that, but there's no other option. There's very little information available about the Jade Clear Sect, even through the Thunder Network. The descriptions are brief and highly biased. I can't let Brother Feng's child grow up in such an environment."

"What about our action plan? There's a big job scheduled for tomorrow."

"This takes priority over that."

"Heh, I don't have any objections when it comes to Brother Feng's child. It's just…"

"Just what?"

"The operation isn't that big of a deal," Kevin said as he lit a cigarette and suggested to Xiu Yi, "But that Blade Warrior should know something about the Jade Clear Sect. If we're going to act, we should at least give her a heads-up."

Xiu Yi froze, then slapped his forehead—right, how could he have forgotten?

"You're overthinking this. Don't let it weigh on your mind."

As the team leader, Xiu Yi was usually rational and thorough, but this time he had made an oversight. After Kevin mentioned it, Xiu Yi immediately thought of the Blade Warrior and quickly called her through Heavenly Communication…

A short while later, the communication ended. Unexpectedly, things went smoother than they'd anticipated. The Blade Warrior stated that this matter wasn't difficult to handle. On the contrary, with her recommendation, it was just a matter of saying the word.

As for Feng Yi's child, well, she hadn't really thought about it yet. But as the child's aunt, wouldn't it be too shabby to not prepare anything? Why not just gift a Space Fortress? It might sound unbelievable, but the Blade Warrior couldn't think of anything else appropriate. After all, considering Feng Yi's status and their emotional ties, it wouldn't make sense to offer anything less valuable.

However, another problem arose for Xiu Yi. It wasn't that they couldn't go to the Jade Clear Sect; the issue was that they'd have to take the Shuttlecraft. The Immortal Mountain was no longer the Immortal Mountain of the past. Now, it had become a true Immortal Mountain—a space city.

Although local residents could travel to the Immortal Mountain using Shuttlecraft, Xiu Yi couldn't. Using the Shuttlecraft required identity authentication, specifically internal Jade Clear Sect verification. Given an outsider's status, especially someone who had once tried to kill the sect's guardian, wouldn't they have to fight before anything else? Even if there wasn't a fight, sneaking in unnoticed was impossible.

Speaking of battles, it had to be acknowledged that even the strongest single combatant—the Red Ghost, with strength at the First-Order mid-to-late stage—wouldn't stand much of a chance against the twelve elders of the Jade Clear Sect, let alone the guardian-level experts. These were people at the pinnacle of the world.

Moreover, Xiu Yi's mission wasn't for the team; it was to gather intel on the Jade Clear Sect and plan his next steps accordingly.

Ironically, this seemingly simple issue had become a stumbling block.

Xixi walked over and reassured Xiu Yi not to worry: "Look, the child's mother is the guardian, but that doesn't mean the child will also become a guardian. Plus, there's the Blade Warrior connection. You know, the Blade Warrior's relationship with Feng Yi is no less significant than ours. Do you think this aunt would sit by and let the child grow up in such an environment? And besides, what's wrong with that environment?"

On the contrary, what matters most for a child isn't growing up in a cushy environment but developing character. As the saying goes, the Ancient Martial Arts factions are known for their traditions, and these sects are especially focused on character and heritage. Besides, the child is the guardian's offspring!

Xixi assured them that Xiu Yi's worries were entirely unnecessary. Even if they didn't plan ahead, do they really think the mother wouldn't arrange for the child's education? Not let the child attend school? That's impossible. So while Xiu Yi and Kevin seemed concerned, their thoughts were actually just overthinking. Xixi scolded them, pointing out that all they needed to do was prepare gifts at the right time.

Kevin was stunned…

Xiu Yi was stunned…

The whole world was stunned…

Exactly—this was someone else's child. Is there anyone in the world who cares about a child more than the child's own mother? Why were they meddling?

"Sister Xixi, so what should we do next…"

"Obviously, carry out tomorrow's mission! Are you dumb? There's so much money at stake—how else are you going to prepare gifts?" Xixi continued reminding Xiu Yi to never forget the caliber of Jade Clear Sect as a hidden sect, and the kinds of people Brother Feng knew.

Think about Blade Warrior—the real Sword Holder of the Combat Power Tester corporation. Think about Francis, Brother Feng's close friend. Think about Brother Feng's life-and-death brother, John, the commander of the Blazing Flame Legion. Whose status wouldn't leave them speechless?
