Chapter 548: Postscript Three: Returning to the Place Where Happiness Began

Year 1 of the Easy Beginning, Clear Harmony month.

All things begin to sprout, returning to Heaven Star.

"Not..."

Shen Qinci looked at that thatched gate, already quite surprised.

"I thought it was just dilapidated, this also..."

Shen Qinci could no longer describe it, a thatched hut! Are you serious?

Ji Wanxing was already covering his face, he said he wouldn't come back! Yet of course they have to come back!

What's there to see in this place? Look how impoverished he used to be!

"Or we should just go back, inside is even uglier."

Ji Wanxing still had to say that, really!

Before returning to his post, he adhered to the principle of not wasting, distributing and using up everything of any value left in the sect!

Now entering, everywhere is full of pits and depressions.

However——

"No!"

Xiao Xiao Li loudly refused to return.

At such a young age, he had never seen such a dilapidated place.

"You brat..."

Ji Wanxing had no choice.

Even this little twerp clearly refused, what else could he say?

After the group entered, even steady old fellow Shen Jing couldn't help but sigh, "Really a ramshackle place!"

Old Ancestor Tian Qing's face also wasn't glorious; if he had known earlier, he should have stopped it! Before, he didn't think this place was unimpressive either?

"Cough, it's nothing, mainly the symbolism is good. For A Li, the symbolism is good, right?" The old man with his hands behind his back tried to appear like an expert, but the flower‑patched old green ox laughing behind him was too down‑to‑earth, ruining the effect~

Xiao Xiao Li was already pointing at the old green ox and laughing, "Kaka~"

Holding him, Di Jin asked, "Want to sit?"

"No!" Xiao Xiao Li immediately clung to his father~

Di Jin really! He wanted to toss this brat away.

It delayed him from embracing his wife‑sister! Really.

Just came back, clinging for two days is fine.

This brat— it's been how many days already!

During the day he wants to be held, at night he wants to stick to him and sleep together with his wife.

Even if he plays with others for a while, later he still has to crawl back into his embrace……

Anyway, he must sleep in his arms; if anyone else holds the brat, he won't sleep.

I'm convinced……

"Be more independent."

Di Jin pulled the brat out, wanting to throw him onto the old green ox's back.

"Ah!"

"Ah ya~"

Xiao Xiao Li clung desperately to his father's hand!

No matter how Di Jin shook, he couldn't shake him off.

Even Xiao Xiao Li is now quite capable.

Jiu Li wanted to laugh, after all the little one's abilities were all taught hand‑by‑hand by his father!

How to put it? It feels great to finally see this big shot suffer a setback! So satisfying~

"Go play with the little cat." Di Jin called out.

Jiu Li immediately covered his mouth, thinking he hadn't managed to hold back his laughter!

But no! Its mouth didn't even open—how could that be noticed?

"Ah ya~"

Xiao Xiao Li disagreed.

"You don't love your little cat anymore? Look, it's crying."

Di Jin pointed at Jiu Li, who inwardly cursed! But he had to go along and fake‑cry.

"Waa~ waa waa~" Jiu Li covered his eyes, pretending to be very sad.

"You'd better not—" Jiu Ying, seeing through the fake, couldn't bear to let the cute one be fooled!

However, Xiao Bai ruthlessly covered his mouth! Although it has nine mouths, Yu Jia, Shen Que, and Jin Que were in perfect sync, all giving him a simultaneous muzzle.

Jiu Ying could only stare helplessly! Watching the innocent cute one being deceived by the evil fat lump! Already fallen into the fat lump's embrace, it infuriated him!

Having successfully shaken off the brat, Di Jin immediately pulled Shen Qingli away to a safer spot! But he didn't dare go far, otherwise that dead brat would surely cry, and that would really be losing the rice while trying to steal the chicken.

"What are you doing?" Shen Qingli didn't even grasp Di Jin's little scheme; she had actually been listening to Old Ancestor Tian Qing's words just then, when suddenly she was pulled away!

As the ancestors said, this place holds good omen for her! It is where she truly began anew and gained happiness.

On Bing Xue Feng, even though she also felt the warmth given by her father and A Jin, back then she was rejecting it; having been utterly wounded, she only wanted to be alone.

Only after finally avenging herself in the sect grand competition and venting her inner resentment

could she finally let go a little, and only then could she re‑accept her kin and friends.

Choosing Heaven Star Sect was originally just because the sect's fate was too similar to hers.

Later, although the time spent here wasn't long, the Heaven Star Sect was indeed a major turning point.

Terms: Heaven Star Sect – sect name. Should we translate? According to rules, sect/faction names must be translated by meaning, not romanized. So "Heaven Star Sect"? Actually Heaven Star Sect: Heaven (Heaven) Star (Star) Sect (Sect). So "Heaven Star Sect". However we have a glossary entry? Not provided. We must translate meaning. So output "Heaven Star Sect". Also turning point maybe "turning point". Not a name.

From here on, the people she encountered were no longer bad; they were all people who could make her happy and warm.

No specific names.

Everyone in the Heaven Star Sect, the whole Shen clan, and the Vermilion Bird Palace were wonderful relatives and friends, doing everything they could, giving their all to protect her.

Terms: Heaven Star Sect (again), Shen Clan, Vermilion Bird Palace. Need to translate meaning: Shen Clan = Shen Clan (or Shen family). Vermilion Bird Palace = Vermilion Bird Palace. Also relatives and friends not a name.

"I want my older sister to show me around." Di Jin naturally wouldn't speak his true feelings, saying, "When my older sister came here, I wasn't able to come, missing the place that meant the most to her."

Terms: Di Jin – given glossary: Di Jin. Keep as Di Jin. Also older sister not a name.

Initially it was just an excuse, but later he spoke sincerely, truly regretting, "I should have been there for every moment of your life."

No names.

"I might have truly come to see you as a good younger brother." Shen Qingli replied with a faint smile.

Terms: Shen Qingli – given glossary.

Di Jin choked up, but he actually realized this possibility was indeed real.

Terms: Di Jin.

"That's great, you go grow, I'm growing too." Shen Qingli cherished that short but peaceful period when she could fully focus on growing.

Terms: Shen Qingli – given glossary.

Focused, without distraction.

No names.

Quite the opposite, it could actually strengthen one's resolve.

No names.

"When I'm here, my heart is very peaceful."

No names.

Shen Qingli looked at the familiar mountains and suddenly called forth the Star Phenomenon Mountain with her mind.

Shen Qingli, Star Phenomenon Mountain

It understood as well! It returned to its original place.

No names.

In an instant, the area where the Heaven Star Sect's ruins lay glittered with stars, as if echoing the heavenly phenomenon caused when Shen Qingli first touched the little star.

Terms: Heaven Star Sect, Shen Qingli. Also little star not a name.

"Oh no! Hold the gate!" Ji Wanxing worried the gate might collapse again later, making things even more embarrassing.

Terms: Ji Wanxing – given glossary.

Coming home in glory is nice, but the hometown is so dilapidated, with many friends coming to see, it's a bit embarrassing.

No names.

However, the gate held, and the rough patches were already being restored to match Shen Qingli's memory.

Terms: Shen Qingli – given glossary.

She is, after all, the primordial god who rebuilt the Easy Beginning New World; restoring and stabilizing this place was easy for her.

She is the primordial god who rebuilt the Easy Beginning New World

However, to prevent disturbing the Nine Provinces' order, Di Jin has sealed off this place alone; the outside world can no longer find or access it.

Nine Provinces and Imperial Ash

He naturally wanted to preserve this place for his older sister as well; no matter when, if she wished to come, he would go with her.

No new names.

But the revived Heaven Star Sect only made Zhong Minglan feel more heartbroken, "If I had noticed the pretty one sooner, I could have come down earlier."

Terms: Heaven Star Sect, Zhong Minglan. Also pretty one not a name.

"Better not; when you come down then, you'll just have returned to your position; coming down early would truly cause you to fall." The attendant Golden Crow hurriedly said, "That really suits Qin Su Nu's heart; if our imperial princess turns back, she'll have to suffer even more."

Terms: Jin Wu – given glossary. Qin Su Nu – given glossary. Imperial Princess – title meaning. Also attendant not a name.

"Yeah!" Xiao Yu Ying also felt sorry for the Young Emperor's past suffering, but fortunately everything turned out sweet, which is wonderful.

Terms: Xiao Yu Ying – person's name (romanized). Young Emperor – title meaning.

"Not bad." Shen Kuo also agreed, "At least judging by the present, this life is the best arrangement."

Terms: Shen Kuo – given glossary.

"Alright, stop feeling sad!" God Lord, there are so many people eating; come lend a hand!" Mr. Tao has always been stressed about preparing a feast for this large crowd; even if he could grow three heads and six arms, he'd still be overwhelmed.

Terms: God Lord – title meaning. Mr. Tao – person's name with honorific translated. Also large group not a name.

"Everyone, lend a hand!" Shen Yuan urged the youngsters to hurry; he also took out his storage ring and handed out plenty of supplies.

Terms: Shen Yuan – person's name (romanized). storage ring – item meaning.

First time visiting the in-laws, you can't show up empty-handed! Moreover, you must make the entire in-law sect satisfied; he also went to great trouble.
