Chapter 214 An Impossible Meeting
The old man was somewhat surprised: "You actually managed to break free from my control of the Thread Gu?"
Then he suddenly became wary: "Something's not right! You don't have any Gu Threads on you, so who are you?!"
The person who stepped forward was none other than the waiter whom Liu Jun had some suspicions about.
The waiter smiled calmly and said, "Greetings, Lord Zuo Xian. Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Han Xiangyue, and I am a member of the Xianmu tribe!"
After saying that, the waiter's expression suddenly changed, and he drew his short knife and stabbed at the old man.
The incident happened so suddenly that those present had no time to react before the two began to fight.
Apart from the one who was kicked awake, everyone else present was controlled by the thread worm and couldn't react at all.
The man had to quickly find a place to hide to avoid being affected, and since he didn't have much of a relationship with the men standing guard, he naturally had to take care of himself first.
The fight came suddenly, and no one noticed that another person in that group had also disappeared.
Liu Jun, the person in question, took this opportunity to run away. Her spiritual power was being suppressed, and she was likely to die at any moment. She had to leave this place as soon as possible.
She had only come along on a whim, wondering if it was related to the shepherd, but ended up in this strange place and was forced to get involved in this mess.
The waiter who claimed to be a member of the Immortal Shepherd Clan started fighting with the old man without saying a word. There must be some secret about the shepherds involved. But Liu Jun is nothing now and could die at any moment. She has no resources to get involved in this matter. Besides, she doesn't know the details of the incident. It's more important to protect herself first.
Having intentionally followed them in, yet having no choice but to follow along, Liu Jun quickly left the strangely laid-out yet very sturdy building, relying on his memory.
The two men fought for so long but couldn't break through the building. They didn't know what materials it was made of. Anyway, Liu Jun escaped and was planning to run far away before making any further plans.
This underground city is indeed quite large, and the people here are no different from the cultivators outside. So why is the spiritual power of those who came in from the outside suppressed?
Why wasn't that shepherd boy suppressed and was able to fight the old man to a standstill?
"boom!"
I was thinking about something when I wasn't looking where I was going and bumped into something.
His spiritual power was indeed suppressed, and his sensitivity and five senses were not as good as before.
Liu Jun was a little dizzy from the impact and couldn't see the road ahead clearly, but she could see clearly the thing she bumped into—no, the person.
That person, that person...
Liu Jun thought he must be seeing things, or maybe he bumped his head somewhere.
Otherwise, why would she see Yan Zhi, someone who had ascended to heaven long ago and hadn't been seen for nearly four thousand years?
Liu Junmu stood there stunned for a long time, unable to come back to his senses. He forgot the pain and even forgot to breathe. He just stared at the person in front of him, his eyes filled with his image.
"Little Willow, from now on you'll be all alone. Remember to be happy."
"Little Willow, if I could, I would like to spend more time with you, but... but... I have already achieved the Great Dao."
(Starry Night, you shouldn't have come)
(Master, you know I will come)
(Starry Night, you're too attached to appearances)
(So what?)
So what? For just one sentence, she slaughtered gods and destroyed the divine realm for him, and paid the price for these sins by being annihilated, her soul and spirit destroyed.
She thought they would never see each other again, never again in all eternity.
But why did they still meet?
While she was oblivious, in her current wretched state.
Her spiritual power was suppressed, but the illusion on her face was never removed, yet that person could see through her panicked state beneath the facade at a glance.
The person's lips parted slightly, and it was unclear whether they sighed softly, but after a long while, they uttered that light, airy sound:
"Little Willow".
But what she said was: "Yan Zhi".
The end is reached.
She had called him that many times, when she was angry, when she wanted to tease him, and when she... was having a nightmare.
But that one word reminded him of that day when she didn't call him "Master" for the first time.
What were his feelings that day...?
"Master, you are not..."
"Follow me first."
Yanzhi pulled her along and they walked in one direction.
Yes, walking through it is just a series of fleeting moments.
The underground city was indeed quite large. Yan Zhi pulled Liu Jun along for almost half an incense stick's time before stopping in a remote place with few houses. In front of them was a small courtyard.
Yan Zhi, on the other hand, pushed open the simple fence gate as if he knew the way well and went inside. He then leaned against the tall wooden door and looked back at the gate.
"come in."
Liu Jun glanced at Yan Zhi, who was holding onto the door, then stepped inside and looked around the courtyard.
The courtyard was very simple, with only a main house and a side house. Inside the fence, there was only a stone table and chairs and a floating tree in the corner.
Liu Jun looked at the tree and suddenly scoffed. Yan Zhi, who had just closed the door behind him, paused upon hearing this, staring at the back of the door with a deep look in his eyes, seemingly lost in thought.
Liu Jun walked to the stone table, found a seat, and then looked indifferently at Yan Zhi, who was still staring blankly at the door, and asked:
"Didn't Master achieve enlightenment and ascend to heaven to enjoy bliss long ago? Why is he here again?"
Yan Zhi finally stopped counting the stripes on the door he had nailed up himself. He turned around and sat down with her. With a slight movement of his fingers, a tea set and a dish of dried fruit appeared on the table... Liu Jun's favorite dried fruit.
Liu Jun raised an eyebrow, remained silent for a moment, and then pushed the things in his hand forward a couple of inches.
"I don't like eating these anymore."
She was telling the truth. Dried fruit was something she liked to eat before she reached the Nascent Soul stage. Several years had passed, and she had long forgotten that she ever liked it.
Yan Zhi wasn't surprised: "That's true, I was the one who got it mixed up."
The scene fell silent again before Liu Jun spoke up again: "Master, you haven't answered my question yet."
Yanzhi seems to get distracted exceptionally easily.
"...What? Oh, what you're seeing now is just an avatar of mine. My true form is still in the Immortal Realm. I've come down to take care of some matters recently."
"No wonder."
"what?"
Liu Jun looked up at him again: "What else could possibly require Master to send an avatar down to the mortal realm to handle?"
"And what about Little Willow? Why are you here?"
"of course……"
Liu Jun suddenly raised an eyebrow and smiled, resting her chin on her hand as she looked at him: "Because I'm bored. There's nothing on land that's worth my attention these days."
"Since we can't ascend, we have to find something to do to pass the time."
Yan Zhi looked at her, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes.
"It's been years since I last saw her, and Little Willow has changed a lot."
"Not several years, but three thousand eight hundred and nine years."
It has been more than 76,000 years.
I wonder if he still remembers?
Yan Zhi's expression was wooden, and the light in his eyes grew even darker: "So, it has been so long."
Otherwise, why would the two of them be sitting together now, yet having nothing to say to each other?
Liu Jun smiled gently and lowered his eyelids: "Yes, it's been too long, so long that... I almost didn't recognize Master."
"On land, there are others my age, either dead or working alongside Master. Master, tell me, why am I the only one who cannot attain enlightenment?"
Liu Jun looked at him, trying to find the answer in his eyes.
Yan Zhi remained silent for a long time, unable to express what Liu Jun wanted.
Finally, all he could say was, "You can stay here tonight and I'll send you away tomorrow."
"No, I still need to find the shepherds' leader, Hanzhen, so I can use his kindness to ask for some good things. The robe my master gave me is damaged, and I need a new one."
"Why is that garment damaged?"
Yanzhi had given him many things, but he had only given him one robe.
Liu Jun grinned, but his expression remained indifferent: "I deliberately broke it, would Master believe that?"
Yan Zhi looked at her: "You..."
"Don't you like that dress anymore?"
Liu Jun reached out and picked up a piece of dried red fruit, put it in his mouth and savored it carefully: "The taste hasn't changed. As expected, it's still the one Master makes that tastes the best."
"I was just kidding. Master is still so easily fooled. It was that brat from the Demon Realm who tore the clothes with a demonic artifact."
After another period of silence, a neatly folded light blue dress suddenly appeared on the table.
"There are many things going on here, you'd better leave as soon as possible."
Liu Jun suddenly stood up and looked down at him: "Do you really want me to leave that badly?"
