I was worried to death,\" Kun Rong patted her chest, her expression one of lingering fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Learning of the upheaval in the Ten Thousand Demon Holy Land, she couldn’t help but secretly break out in a cold sweat for Hong Yuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Hong Yuan killing Feng Yu and crippling Mo Yilun, she had heard a little about it but wasn’t too willing to believe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She knew very well what her Senior Brother was truly capable of!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s all right, it’s all over now. Let me introduce you two,\" Hong Yuan narrowed his eyes in a light smile, his demeanor slightly gentle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No need, we already know each other,\" Kun Rong waved her hand in refusal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a push from her feet, she flew up to Han Kui’s side, took her small hand, and flew back onto the back of the Nine-tailed Crocodile Dragon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Kui was dressed in a white palace gown, her elegance fully displayed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kun Rong wore a plain blue robe, her every frown and smile radiating a tender affection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two girls whispered amongst themselves, creating another kind of beautiful scene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hong Yuan lightly tapped his foot and also ascended onto the back of the Nine-tailed Crocodile Dragon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Master Heavenly River, I wonder what his situation is.Hong Yuan narrowed his eyes, his mind soaring with the gallop of the Nine-tailed Crocodile Dragon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, Kun Rong, who was behind Hong Yuan, suddenly widened her peach-blossom eyes, staring in disbelief at Hong Yuan’s back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sister Han Kui, you’re saying that my Senior Brother killed Feng Yu, defeated Mo Yilun, escaped from Tianli’s pursuit, and all those other deeds... are true!?\" Kun Rong exclaimed in a high-pitched voice. \"It’s only been a year since we last met, how could he have changed so much?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s true,\" Han Kui confirmed with a nod, looking at Hong Yuan’s back with reverence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This... this...\" Kun Rong was stunned, unable to fathom how this Senior Brother of hers could have accomplished such feats.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One had to know that Feng Yu was one of the six Great Tao Seeds of the Ten Thousand Demon Holy Land; his command over wind and fire laws intimidated the younger generation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo Yilun was even ranked among the Upper Three Tao Seeds. He was a terrifying entity capable of contending with a Demon Saint for a few moves and hailed as one of the leading figures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention being pursued by Tianli of the Heavenly Horned Ants, one of the Heaven-favored of the Demon Clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Any one of these incidents would be shocking enough on its own, let alone all three combined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For some reason, Kun Rong suddenly felt that her Senior Brother’s figure had grown incredibly tall and imposing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Heavenly River Cave Mansion was a peculiar place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mansion was situated at the very bottom of the central region of the Huangqu River. It was square in shape and quite vast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within the mansion, various rare and ferocious beasts gathered. There were also spirit grasses emitting an immortal glow and ancient trees, presenting a scene brimming with vitality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was Master Heavenly River’s dojo, a treasured land he had planned for thousands of years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Here, there was no daytime; it was eternally night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sky was always adorned with a Star River, illuminating the land.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hong Yuan and the others entered the Heavenly River Cave Mansion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A beam of starlight descended upon Hong Yuan, and the next moment, his figure immediately vanished, causing Han Kui to become flustered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sister Han Kui, don’t worry. My Senior Brother has been summoned by Master,\" Kun Rong consoled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a courtyard bathed in gauzy light, appearing mysterious, tranquil, and exquisitely beautiful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Master Heavenly River, his hair white as snow, sat beside a stone table, awaiting Hong Yuan’s arrival.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A starlight shimmered, and Hong Yuan’s form gradually materialized.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master,\" upon seeing Master Heavenly River, Hong Yuan immediately knelt in the customary greeting for a master to show his respect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They hadn’t seen each other since that brief dream encounter, yet Hong Yuan was shocked to see Master Heavenly River had grown so frail and aged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rise. I know all about the affairs of the Ten Thousand Demon Holy Land. From now on, you should cultivate diligently within the cave mansion and minimize your excursions.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Hong Yuan, Master Heavenly River felt a sense of marvel, still finding it somewhat surreal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to his divinations, this disciple he hadn’t set much store by should have died at Tianli’s hands, contributing a measure of his own fortune towards activating Tianli’s status as the Demon Clan’s Son of Fortune.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was also a major reason why his attentiveness to Kun Rong far exceeded that for Hong Yuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet now, this disciple of his had actually managed to evade a fatal calamity and barely cling to life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Life is unpredictable, fortune ever-shifting. It seems that fate is not immutable after all,\" Master Heavenly River murmured, lowering his head in deep thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After contemplating for a while, Master Heavenly River reached into the void.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under Hong Yuan’s puzzled gaze, he retrieved two yellow jade slips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No matter what, you are still my disciple. For the remaining hundred or so years I have left, I will protect you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"However, your future will inevitably become entangled with Tianli’s.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"According to the plans of those old schemers, the Demon Clan’s Son of Fortune in this era is Tianli.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You must work hard and first forge your own Life Tao Seed. If you can’t defeat him, then run. You absolutely must not become a sacrificial offering for Tianli to consolidate power and fortune.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Master Heavenly River spoke earnestly, placing the two yellow jade slips into Hong Yuan’s hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His words left Hong Yuan puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Forge a Life Tao Seed? The plans of those old schemers? The Demon Clan’s Son of Fortune?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, Hong Yuan had clearly heard the part about \"if you can’t defeat him, then run.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rest assured, Master, I will definitely protect myself,\" Hong Yuan responded solemnly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as the dream doesn’t force me to fight Tianli, I’ll use my Life Span to wear him down. If I absolutely have to confront Tianli, then I’ll have to find a method through the Dream Tao to forcibly skip the process. For a Demon to resist a Demon Saint—that was simply outrageous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Go,\" Master Heavenly River nodded slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A starlight shone upon Hong Yuan, and his figure immediately disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the Nine-tailed Crocodile Dragon’s back, a cluster of starlight suddenly materialized.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Han Kui and Kun Rong’s watchful eyes, Hong Yuan stepped out from the starlight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a flip of his hand, Hong Yuan stored the two jade slips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of these two yellow jade slips, one detailed how to forge a Life Tao Seed, and the other described material combinations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hong Yuan had just briefly inspected them and felt that Master Heavenly River, his mentor, was rather decent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A short while later, Kun Rong said softly, \"Senior Brother, we have arrived.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hong Yuan lifted his head and surveyed the area ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a valley filled with twinkling starlight, swirling mist, and a canopy of vibrant clouds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hong Yuan took out the Flood Gathering War Banner and gave it a gentle shake. The mist in the valley immediately dispersed, revealing a scene of flowers, plants, and chirping birds within.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Junior Sister, thank you. Would you like to come and see my cave mansion?\" Hong Yuan invited Kun Rong with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kun Rong was tempted, but ultimately, she shook her head and declined Hong Yuan’s invitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although she knew Hong Yuan wouldn’t behave improperly towards her, this current version of Hong Yuan always gave her the creeps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She truly couldn’t believe that the somewhat clumsy Senior Brother Han Jiuming she once knew had suddenly become so powerful!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Senior Brother, Sister Han Kui, I’ll be going now,\" Kun Rong waved her small hand in farewell and, accompanied by the Nine-tailed Crocodile Dragon, headed towards her own cave mansion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Kun Rong’s figure gradually disappeared from sight, Hong Yuan turned and walked towards his own cave mansion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Kui followed closely behind Hong Yuan, terrified that he would abandon her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the cave mansion, there was only one training chamber. Considering Han Kui’s arrival, Hong Yuan spent some time and effort to carve out a new palace for her use.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"From now on, you will live in there. If you have any questions, you can ring the wind chime in front of your door, and I will come to answer them,\" Hong Yuan instructed softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Kui looked at the simple door opposite hers and nodded emphatically. \"I understand, Jiuming.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hong Yuan gave her a few more instructions on common sense matters, then returned to the training chamber to begin his cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Kui gazed at the closed door of the training chamber, and a tear slid from the corner of her right eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From this day forward, she would have to depend on Hong Yuan to survive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, just half a year ago, she still had so many companions...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Hong Yuan, sitting on the Taoist Mat, suddenly closed his eyes tightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Ice Tao +30,000]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Ice Tao +30,000]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[...]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Cultivation Path: Ice Tao (Grandmaster 23%) → Ice Tao (Grandmaster 35%)]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Multitudes of insights into the Ice Tao spontaneously surfaced in Hong Yuan’s mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These were the Ice Tao insights inherited from Han Jiuming!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Layers upon layers of images emerged in Hong Yuan’s mind, and he carefully experienced each one.\u003C\u002Fp>",1588,"2026-06-06T07:22:59.676Z",1,"novelbin.me","e009e2ead2f7bcdeb2dcd43bf0f7d44fc734815da0b6ef20e57daac2637d290e","longevity-martial-arts-i-have-a-mysterious-water-chapter-237","longevity-martial-arts-i-have-a-mysterious-water-chapter-235",1024,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Flongevity-martial-arts-i-have-a-mysterious-water-cover.jpg"]
