Eternal Tale

Chapter 1015: Where the heart desires, the Dao heart is magnificent

This time, Chen Xun didn't pay attention to Xiao Wuhen.

He simply gazed intently at Yuxuan. Over the past century, she hadn't said much, just quietly watched the scenery along the way, without using any mana.

Yun Xihan had once told him that when the elders of his clan returned, they were still apprehensive about this female venerable's Heaven and Earth Phenomenon, as she could hold her own against two opponents, quite formidable indeed.

Yuxuan smiled gently, a smile full of relief, as she looked towards the end of the mountain spring. "I had already decided to go before coming here, and I promised my master. So, this time I'm here to see you, not to force you to do anything."

"What I said earlier was just my thoughts when I first asked you to come, not my current thoughts."

"Moreover, the promise between us has been fulfilled over this century."

Yuxuan suddenly turned her head, meeting Chen Xun's intense gaze. "Besides, along the way, I've absorbed quite a bit of your immortal aura, bringing blessings upon myself."

"Heh." Chen Xun scoffed, Yuxuan never seemed serious.

"Say your goodbyes properly." Yuxuan slowly stood up, her eyes still carefree as when she arrived. "Who knows, maybe I'll have the bearing of an immortal one day. If this disciple doesn't live up to expectations, I'll have to rely on myself."

"Haha..." Chen Xun suddenly burst into laughter, then put down his clothes and stood up. "If Brother Ye Han heard this, he would definitely be restless."

Yuxuan's eyes held a trace of disdain, still brooding over why the Nine Heavens Immortal Alliance didn't hunt down her disciple back then. Mainly, she was itching to teach that disappointing disciple a lesson.

But now he had found a Dao companion, living in harmony, and it was no longer appropriate. He had grown up, had his own world, and couldn't be judged by childhood standards.

Yuxuan's lips curled into a slight smile. "So before leaving, I came to see an old friend. My disappointing disciple will rely on you in the future."

"Aren't you going to his wedding?" Chen Xun frowned slightly.

"No, we cultivators don't have the formalities of immortal nations. It would only make me uncomfortable. I've already given them a token at the Immortal Palace." Yuxuan shook her head, her nature was more carefree.

Mainly, she didn't have a penchant for banquets, didn't like crowds, and didn't enjoy mingling with unfamiliar cultivators.

"...Alright." Chen Xun sighed softly, not persuading further. "If you encounter danger, shout my name. It's bound to be a bit stronger than your master."

This remark amused Yuxuan. "You, a Qi cultivation phase Dao Ancestor, should stay in the Jade Bamboo Range and take care of the children. After your Dao ceremony, besides scaring people with your title, what else can you do?"

Chen Xun was momentarily speechless, waved his hand dismissively, not bothering to explain further, appearing very casual.

Yuxuan suddenly became serious, gracefully cupped her hands, and said, "Chen Xun, when we meet again in the grand world of immortals, let's recount the past. I've benefited greatly over this century, thank you."

"Ho." Chen Xun remained nonchalant, jokingly said, "Got it, I have a junior who seems to be in the Primordial Great World too. His name is Meng Sheng. If you meet him, you can exchange ideas."

"I know of him. The Yu family of the longevity families often mentions him." Yuxuan's eyes slightly narrowed, smiling, "They say he has the bearing of an immortal. I didn't expect him to be your junior. It seems your connections are quite extensive."

"Hehe, indeed." Chen Xun placed one hand behind his back, his eyes carrying a boastful air. If this Dao Ancestor lives for hundreds of thousands more years, you'd all be juniors...

Yuxuan glanced sideways, suddenly looking at Xiao Wuhen, and said, "Wuhen."

"Sister Yuxuan." Xiao Wuhen beamed brightly.

"After being together for so many years, before leaving, let me give you a little shock. Look towards the distant snowy mountains." Yuxuan's lips curled, and Chen Xun was startled. Before he could speak, it was too late to stop her.

She merely raised her hand lightly, and suddenly, the clouds in the sky began to churn unpredictably, the wind roared, and a powerful airflow was released from Yuxuan's hand.

In Xiao Wuhen's astonished and shocked gaze towards the distance, the already majestic and magnificent snowy mountain was instantly pulled by an invisible force...

Snowflakes danced, and the mountain began to tremble. It seemed as if Yuxuan's hand was manipulating the power of heaven and earth, triggering an earth-shattering avalanche.

The avalanche roared down like thousands of troops, echoing with deafening thunder within a thousand-mile radius, astonishing all around, leaving people incredulous at the sudden spectacle.

Xiao Wuhen stood rigid like a piece of wood... his eyes wide like copper bells, as if his centuries of experiences had never been as shocking as this.

The faint smile on Chen Xun's face froze, damn... as expected of you, Yuxuan, pulling this off before leaving.

Yuxuan, with her hands behind her back, slowly walked into the forest, waving nonchalantly, "Chen Xun, until we meet again, live well after your Dao ceremony, there will be a day we meet again."

She finished with a stunning smile, after a century of companionship, she had a deep understanding of Chen Xun. He was naturally free, unrestrained, and disliked trouble.

Her trivial matters would only disturb his peaceful days, and there was no need to involve such an immortal in worldly affairs. Being together for a century was enough.

"Alright."

Suddenly, a steady, ancient voice came from behind her.

Yuxuan's smile deepened, her figure becoming more and more blurry, finally disappearing into the damp forest, leaving only a carefree silhouette for Chen Xun.

Such is the way of cultivators, driven by thoughts, perhaps not seen for years, but when thought of, they meet to discuss the Dao, or perhaps, after one meeting, never to meet again in this life.

The Three Thousand Great Worlds are vast, no matter how long one has lived, cultivators still have aspirations, and their Dao hearts are magnificent.

Chen Xun's gaze deepened, quietly watching Yuxuan's departing figure, a faint smile on his face.

However, Xiao Wuhen was shocked for a long time.

He finally began to slowly turn his head, his eyes bursting with brilliant light, his face showing an exaggerated yet meaningful smile, slowly looking at his father.

In that unspoken expression, wasn't there a suppressed sense of awe, realizing that Sister Yuxuan was an immortal, then his father must be...

Chen Xun was taken aback by Xiao Wuhen's look of utmost admiration, why did he feel a bit of secret satisfaction inside?

"Father, Sister Yuxuan is an immortal!" Xiao Wuhen's voice trembled slightly, the sight of the snowy mountain collapsing with a wave of her hand had a huge impact on his worldview.

After all, he had never seen an immortal in action, only heard tales of flying through the air, moving mountains, and filling seas.

"Yes, I just found out too." Chen Xun glanced sideways at Xiao Wuhen, "It seems she must have gained some immortal fate during her disappearance these years, but your immortal sister is busy with many matters and has left."

"Wow!! Of course, Father! Immortals are mysterious beings, rarely seen."

Xiao Wuhen's imagination ran wild, his face still wearing that silly, awe-struck smile, even mimicking, raising his hand and waving towards the distance, but nothing happened, only two leaves fell.

Yet he continued to practice diligently, a seed of cultivating immortality planted in his heart by Yuxuan.

Chen Xun shook his head with a smile, why did he feel that Yuxuan understood him quite well, this child would definitely cultivate immortality in the future, but the immortal path was too grand, it had to be taken slowly.

"Son, let's go." Chen Xun began to pack up.

"Alright, Father!" Xiao Wuhen was very excited, his gaze lingering on the distant snowy mountain where the avalanche had occurred.

They rode a wooden cart, slowly leaving, heading towards the border of Kingdom Qian, preparing to return home.
