Chapter 21: What? A Chuan already has a daughter?

~7 min read 1,389 words

Dao Tian Zhou, Qingyu Fu Di.

After years of bitter cultivation, Yun Zhi Yi finally digested all the fortune and qi of the Qing Yun Blessed Land granted to her.

"After so long, will A Chuan still wait for me?"

To Yun Zhi Yi, every moment is precious.

"Not much time has passed in the Nine-phase World; rest assured."

Xia Zi's voice sounded at the right moment: "After the Dao Ancestor's enlightenment, the flow of time in this cave-heaven blessed land differs from the outside."

The profundities of spacetime are beyond ordinary comprehension.

Even Xia Zi the Sword Immortal merely touches the edge, lacking the ability to reverse spacetime.

"Can you find him now?" Xia Zi asked.

"I'll try."

Having absorbed the three hundred years of fortune and qi from the Qing Yun Blessed Land, Yun Zhi Yi is already infinitely close to the Supreme realm of the Nine-phase World, naturally able to touch the karma Dao principle.

Dao resonance gathered like wind and clouds around Yun Zhi Yi.

In the dark, the karma Dao principle guided her direction, yet it was too vague.

Ultimately, her own strength was insufficient.

"I will borrow the vital energy of the Daoist cave-heaven blessed land for you."

Xia Zi let out a soft chant.

The thirty-six cave-heavens and seventy-two blessed lands of Dao Tian Zhou trembled, and a terrifying vital energy instantly poured into the Qingyu Fu Di.

The guidance in Yun Zhi Yi's mind became increasingly clear.

Pfft!

Her endurance also reached its limit at this moment, and she spat out a mouthful of heart's blood.

"Found it."

Unmindful of the pain in body and mind, Yun Zhi Yi smiled, "I have sensed A Chuan's position! At last! I can! See A Chuan again!"

Xia Zi remained silent, feeling a premonition that the karmic entanglement between Yun Zhi Yi and that close friend from her dream would not be easily undone.

The seas have turned to fields; many things have changed.

"Let's go."

Xia Zi still wanted to take a look at that close friend from the dream, no matter what kind of person they were, he had to make this trip.

The two tore through space, following the guidance as they fled.

Dao Tian Zhou is extremely far from the place indicated by the guidance; even a Supreme being must rely on the Great Teleportation Talisman to continually shuttle.

As the distance drew nearer, Yun Zhi Yi grew more tense, her hands clenched tightly.

"We have arrived."

Only after Xia Zi reminded her did she suddenly stop, her gaze turning toward a mundane manor not far away.

In the Lin Family Courtyard, Lin Chuan was playing with Xiao Rumeng.

"Daddy, run faster~"

The little girl sat on Lin Chuan's shoulders, arms spread, her chubby little face full of smiles.

"A... A Chuan!"

Yun Zhi Yi was struck by a bolt from the blue, her face turned pale, she froze on the spot.

Has the reincarnated A Chuan already married and had children?

What then am I now?

Xia Zi furrowed his brow slightly, "This child..."

Yun Zhi Yi gave a bitter smile, "This child is adorable, right? I also sensed that A Chuan likes her."

Thinking of this, Yun Zhi Yi felt even more heartache.

In the Qingyu Fu Di, she was supposed to bear a child for A Chuan, but ultimately failed to keep it.

Xia Zi remained silent.

Actually what he wanted to say was, this child is abnormal.

She is completely not a normal Human Race little girl; her body is covered with extremely strange laws, even he cannot see through.

That close friend from the dream is indeed not an ordinary person.

"Never mind, never mind."

Xia Zi sighed in his heart, "His arrangement like this must have a reason; the matters of close friend and confidantes, I won't expose."

Xia Zi chose to conceal the truth.

He came here merely to take a glance at the close friend from his dream, this person who could become sworn comrades in life and death with him in his mortal dream.

As for the rest, he does not want to interfere.

When the dream close friend remembers him, they will meet again without delay.

"I'm leaving."

Xia Zi turned and departed, "Wish you good luck."

In that lifetime of the Qingyu Fu Di, Lin Chuan and Yun Zhi Yi were an enviable immortal couple, so deeply loving that their affection had long surpassed the boundary of life and death.

Xia Zi still hopes their love can come to fruition.

But regarding feelings, he dare not make a hasty conclusion.

Now there is a mysterious third party, and the little girl in the Lin manor whose body is covered with strange laws—these are variables.

For Yun Zhi Yi, that is an absolute obstacle.

Xia Zi left.

Yun Zhi Yi still stood in the Void Space, at a loss.

She didn't know what to do.

Leave silently?

How could she be willing!

To insert herself into it? That's not something she could do.

Doing so would only hurt the present A Chuan, and it would also bring her no benefit.

"Now I'm afraid the only thing I can do is wait."

Yun Zhi Yi made up her mind, "Just take a good look at him, then leave."

……

After several days of maneuvering, Yun Zhi Yi bought the residence next to the Lin Fu.

Thus at least she could see A Chuan.

Perhaps one day, A Chuan will regain his memory and think of her.

At that time, she would go ask A Chuan, letting A Chuan decide for himself.

If the A Chuan who has awakened his memory does not acknowledge that past-life affection, then she could let it go and truly leave without any lingering attachment.

Lin Family Courtyard.

Lin Yangyang immediately received news that a mysterious person had moved in next door.

This is the most central area of Youshui Xian; not to say every inch of land is worth its weight in gold, but it is extremely precious, and the government's control over land is also extremely strict.

Under the circumstances where social ranks have already solidified, for a mysterious person to push aside the powerful and influential figures next door and occupy a mansion must mean they have an awe-inspiring background.

"Recently, strange occurrences have been increasing, good and bad mixed together, unpredictable; I must strive to cultivate."

The opportunities of cultivation come with unpredictable dangers, making Lin Yangyang's sense of tension grow stronger and stronger.

First she encountered the wealth demon Bi Yin, then Chuan'er and she successively stepped onto the Path of Cultivation, and inexplicably also gained a strange niece.

Moreover, various young nobles wanted to marry her.

Now another mysterious person has moved in next door; perhaps they are targeting her or Chuan'er.

Troubles came one after another.

Fortunately, the first step of the chamber of commerce's advance into the cultivation world has already been successfully taken.

A few days ago, Lin Yangyang met four like-minded cultivators and decided to partner in business; the outcome remains to be seen.

At least it's better than stumbling around cluelessly on one's own.

More friends mean more paths.

"Miss, we have gathered some information about that person next door."

Just then, a servant delivered a dossier.

Lin Yangyang opened it; inside was extremely rare information.

"——The mysterious person next door calls himself Qingyu Daoist, has an eccentric temperament, excels in the Way of Feng Shui, can observe celestial omens and fortune, and once solved a major predicament for the Youliang County Shou."

Precisely for this reason, Qingyu Daoist is able to reside here.

"So it turns out the Youliang County Shou is his background; no wonder then."

Youshui Xian is merely a county under Youliang Prefecture; the Youliang County Shou is the governor of the prefectural city, and since Qingyu Daoist has a favor with the county shou, buying a mansion here is simplicity itself.

"Someone come, prepare a great gift."

"I want to personally go pay a visit to this Qingyu Daoist."

"As a businessman, one should be versatile; with a new neighbor, it is proper both emotionally and rationally to pay a visit."

If Qingyu Daoist truly has ability, one could also ask him to diagnose Chuan'er's chronic ailment of sleeping and dreaming.
