23. The Clumsy Tune of Summoning Gods

```

Taking out my phone, I logged into the chat software I often use and saw the message from my roommate; they were worried something had happened to me. I just replied that something came up at home and that I wouldn't be able to continue my studies for the next two years, then I deleted the chat software.

Since there was no turning back, I cut off all possible contacts.

I was someone around whom weird things always seemed to happen, and I feared that if my roommate got into trouble, or if I had a lapse in judgment and ran back, I might end up losing my life.

In the following days, I wandered around every day, visited a scenic area to see if I could find a suitable place for Ninth Lord Master to cultivate, but it turned out that pretty much all of it had been developed...

Despite its lush greenery, in truth, it was devoid of spiritual energy.

The little that was there had been almost completely destroyed; it wasn't as comfortable as living in the apartment.
