Five Elements Heaven.

Summary

Ai Hui met Li Wei, who brought him and Duanmu Huang Hun back from the Golden Tower. Li Wei was the instructor of the Yinghua Wind Society and a friend of Mingxiu. Ai Hui was initially unfamiliar with Li Wei but soon became enthusiastic about eating with him. Ai Hui declined Li Wei's invitation to join the Yinghua Wind Society, citing his busy cultivation schedule. Li Wei took a liking to Ai Hui, who was a cultivation genius, but felt regret that Ai Hui had started late. Ai Hui had only begun to cultivate at 16, which was considered old for talented geniuses. Li Wei sensed Ai Hui's urgency and encouraged him, believing that he could overcome his late start. Ai Hui left a deep impression on Li Wei, who felt that he had gained a lot from their brief interaction. Li Wei discovered that Ai Hui had spent three years in the Wilderness as a laborer, which shocked him. Laborers were a special group of people in the Wilderness, mostly recruited from the old land, with almost zero combat power. Li Wei didn't understand why laborers were recruited but later learned that they were used to hunt wild beasts without scaring them away. The laborer recruitment system was controversial and had been in place for 700 years, but it might be abolished soon.
