Chapter 437: Are You Well

~11 min read 2,046 words

Outside the originally somewhat quiet Qinghe Market, two sword lights suddenly flew in on this day and landed a few dozen zhang outside the market gate.

Several market Law Enforcement Team cultivators who were guarding the market were standing on the side chatting leisurely. Seeing two Foundation Establishment cultivators suddenly arrive, these people became nervous and took out the magic tools on their bodies one after another.

It wasn't until these two figures walked closer and a Law Enforcement Team guard who recognized these two people stepped forward and shouted respectfully: "Clan Leader Song, Senior Song, why did you two have time to come today? Please come in quickly!"

Seeing that the two Foundation Establishment cultivators who came were seniors of the Song family in Qinghe County, the other several people who didn't have time to rush up to curry favor felt regretful that they didn't recognize the two of them early, wasting a chance to get familiar with Foundation Establishment cultivators.

"Qingyu, you haven't been to Qinghe Market for some years, have you!"

Song Qingyu, who was walking on the main street of the market, shook her head at Song Qingming with a coquettish smile: "Seventh Brother, you guessed wrong this time. In the few years since I came back, I have come to the market almost every month!"

"Oh! Since you often come here, why do you want to come so much today? Is there any good thing in this market that you can't bear to leave?" Song Qingming asked with a smile again.

After Song Qingyu finished listening, she nodded solemnly: "There is indeed a good thing. Recently, our family's Immortal Phoenix Building has a new very powerful spirit chef. That taste is really making me unforgettable, drooling, and looking forward to it..."

"Haha! I have also eaten a lot of delicacies in Guiyun Market and Yangshan Market. Although the things made by spirit chefs in those places will taste better than those here in Qinghe Market, they are not as powerful as you said!"

Seeing Song Qingyu talking more and more outrageously, Song Qingming also felt somewhat strange. Along the way, this girl was not quite right all over, and he didn't know what kind of riddle she was playing with him.

Although he knew in his heart that Song Qingyu seemed to be hiding something from him, Song Qingming didn't rush to expose her and followed her into the Immortal Phoenix Building very naturally.

After the two ordered a table full of delicacies in a private room on the second floor, Song Qingyu gave Song Qingming a piece of red spirit fruit in his bowl with a full face of diligence.

"Seventh Brother, you try this dish first. This is a spirit chef I spent a lot of thought to specially invite. You see if this cooking skill is satisfactory?"

After Song Qingming tasted a bite, under Song Qingyu's full expectation, he laughed and shook his head: "Hongyu's cooking skills have indeed improved a lot in the past few years, but she still can't change the problem of liking to put more low-grade spirit herbs in spirit food."

"Strange, you can taste this. No wonder Hongyu always says your tongue is powerful. However, don't worry, it was just testing you just now. For the next dish, Seventh Brother, you must taste it carefully."

After Song Qingyu finished speaking, she slowly moved a white spirit fish placed in the middle of the table to Song Qingming's eyes.

"This fine white carp looks quite good in appearance. It shouldn't be made by Hongyu and the others. I will taste it first and will definitely give you a fair evaluation later!"

After Song Qingming finished speaking, under Song Qingyu's gaze, he picked up a piece of fish meat and put it into his mouth.

After the fish meat entered his mouth for a while, Song Qingming closed his eyes and tasted it carefully, and suddenly felt that there was a familiar taste in the fish meat.

As the fragrance of the fish meat gradually accumulated in his mouth, Song Qingming's feeling for this trace of fragrance became deeper and deeper, and soon those memories accumulated in his mind emerged constantly.

After tasting only one bite, Song Qingming, who was sitting in the chair, did not speak for a long time, and the expression on his face slowly became somewhat strange.

Afterward, Song Qingming gently put down the chopsticks in his hand, his eyes looked at Song Qingyu on the side fiercely, and asked softly: "Is she back?"

"Seventh Brother, who are you talking about?" Song Qingyu pretended to be puzzled and asked.

Seeing that Song Qingyu didn't want to answer his question intentionally, Song Qingming didn't pay attention to her anymore and stood up directly, wanting to go outside the private room.

At this moment, the door in front of the two suddenly opened from the outside, and a woman in white walked into the room with a pot of spirit wine in her hand with a smile.

"Why are you leaving after eating only a few bites? Is there any urgent matter again?" The woman in white said with a calm expression, sat directly beside Song Qingyu, and poured a cup of spirit wine for both her and Song Qingming.

Seeing this very familiar face, Song Qingming smiled slightly and sat back in his seat immediately.

"Seventh Brother, the spirit chef I invited this time, are you satisfied? You eat slowly, I will go out to find Hongyu first." After Song Qingyu nodded and smiled at the other two people in the private room, she left the private room directly.

After Song Qingyu's figure disappeared, Song Qingming smiled and said: "This girl Qingyu is really powerful in managing the family now. I have been back for half a month, and I haven't heard any news about you at home. It seems that she has already greeted everyone."

"Haha! Qingyu and I came back together and have been here for a few years. At that time, you had already left, and everyone didn't know where you went, which made Qingyu anxious. Fortunately, you finally came back safely."

"I have been in the market for these years and haven't been to Mount Funiu. There shouldn't be many people on the mountain who know the news of my return. It's not strange that you knew it late."

"Are you well all these years, Siyuan!"

Huang Siyuan, dressed in white, nodded slightly: "Mm! It's good to be back. Although I have been outside for a long time over the years, fortunately, I haven't experienced any hardships. It's all in the past. When I have time, I will tell you slowly!"

"Good!" After Song Qingming responded, he picked up the wine glass on the table and poured the spirit wine just poured by Huang Siyuan into his belly.

Huang Siyuan, who was sitting on the side, didn't speak when she saw this, picked up the wine glass beside her lightly, and drank it with Song Qingming.

After the spirit wine went down, the two looked at each other and smiled, and a trace of redness appeared on their faces. Soon, the two who had been separated for a long time slowly began to talk and laugh. This meal seemed to make them return to the time decades ago.

"When I left without saying goodbye, did you feel very angry with me after you knew it later?" After the meal, Huang Siyuan asked for two cups of spirit tea as before.

"Siyuan, the opportunity of a cultivator is determined by heaven. Since your opportunity is not here, then leaving is also a matter determined by heaven. You don't need to care too much about other people's feelings!"

"In fact, even if you told me directly back then, I shouldn't have stopped you from leaving. Everyone pursuing their own path is a matter of course. Although you and I are Dao companions, I will also respect your own choice."

After Huang Siyuan lowered her head and pondered for a while, she suddenly raised her head and asked puzzledly: "Since you agreed with me leaving in your heart, why did you send someone to inquire about my news everywhere after I left, and specially went to Guiyun Market to look for me for several years?"

"What?"

Hearing Huang Siyuan say that he sent someone to look for her everywhere back then, Song Qingming looked up at Huang Siyuan in surprise, but saw that she was looking at him seriously and didn't look like she was joking, and immediately understood something in his heart.

"It seems that Qingyu was able to bring Huang Siyuan back this time, and it really took a lot of thought."

Because of Huang Siyuan's unexpected return, Song Qingming didn't leave immediately after eating and chose to stay in Qinghe Market until more than ten days later when he returned to Mount Funiu.

After getting along for so many days, Song Qingming slowly learned about some things that happened to Huang Siyuan after she left Qinghe Market back then, and finally knew how she succeeded in Foundation Establishment.

The reason why Huang Siyuan had no news after she left Qinghe Market back then was actually because she had left Wei State and went to the Zheng State immortal cultivation world.

Huang Siyuan's mother came from the Minghe Sect in Zheng State. A hundred years ago, the internal strife in the Minghe Sect was widespread, and her mother followed many fellow disciples and fled to Wei State.

Because they fell into a foreign land, many of these people fell in status and became ordinary loose cultivators. Huang Siyuan's mother also met her father, Huang Xianchen, in this situation.

After her mother married into the Huang family, her life was considered stable, and not long after, she gave birth to Huang Siyuan.

However, the stable life of this family didn't last long. When Huang Siyuan was in her teens, her mother received a letter from a senior brother who had fallen into trouble together before, asking her to go out to help explore a senior's cave dwelling.

As a result, her mother never came back after this trip. It wasn't until decades later that the senior brother of Huang Siyuan's mother took the initiative to come to the door and told Huang Siyuan the secret of her mother's disappearance back then.

This person came to Huang Siyuan to explain the truth, also to repay the kindness her mother had for him back then. Now he has also succeeded in Foundation Establishment and apprenticed to a Core Formation cultivator, which can be considered to have some ability.

Facing the repayment of this uncle, Huang Siyuan pondered for a few days and decided to ask him for an opportunity for Foundation Establishment. Finally, under his promise, she left Wei State together.

After arriving in Zheng State, although this uncle of Huang Siyuan took good care of her and tried to win an opportunity for Foundation Establishment for her, the Foundation Establishment Pill is not something that can be obtained casually. In order to obtain this opportunity to take the Foundation Establishment Pill, Huang Siyuan had to agree to serve that Core Formation ancestor for thirty years for free after Foundation Establishment.

Back then, when Song Qingyu and He Mengxin participated in the Gufeng Mountain Spirit Stone Mine Great War in Zheng State, the woman Song Qingyu finally chased was actually Huang Siyuan.

It was just that she hadn't completed the thirty-year agreement with that Core Formation ancestor at that time and couldn't leave, so she could only briefly explain her situation to Song Qingyu and left alone.

It wasn't until ten years later that Song Qingyu, who returned from the East Sea, found her again and waited for Huang Siyuan in Zheng State for several years, and the two returned to Wei State together.

I found that many new book friends have come recently. If it is convenient, why not join a group 236038447,

Xiaomeng has seen everyone's comments recently, but some questions are easy to spoil, which is not good for other readers. Everyone can come to the group to chat with me. You can ask me directly about any questions.
