Lu Xuan's eyes couldn't help but flash with a strange light. Normally, the partner of a martial artist would be a martial artist. After all, the lifespan of a martial artist was much longer than that of an ordinary person. This way, they wouldn't have to be separated by life and death halfway through the path of cultivation. Who would have thought that such a talented person like Ye Tian would actually fall in love with an ordinary woman?
"When I was fifty-one years old, I met her. At that time, my strength was already at the peak of the Absolute Void Realm. In order to find an opportunity to break through to the Transcendent Realm, I transformed into an ordinary person and lived in the mortal world. That day, I was drunk and returning home. Coincidentally, I met her on the road. She was selling steamed buns by herself. I don't know why, but I, Ye Tian, have seen countless beauties, but I've never felt that kind of feeling. Thus, I made up my mind that I wanted her to become my woman."
"Hehe, so I hired a few ruffians and went to destroy her steamed bun shop the next day. How could a few ruffians be my opponent? I didn't even need to use my Yuan energy to deal with them. A romantic story of a hero saving a damsel in distress, thus began …"
Ye Tian spoke with great relish. Clearly, he was extremely proud of what he had done back then. On the other hand, Lu Xuan couldn't help but facepalm. He couldn't bear to look straight at this scene. At this moment, the dignified image of the Sky Emperor collapsed in his heart.
Oh my god, you're a peak of the Absolute Void Realm expert. Not only did you drink with women, you even hired ruffians to put on a good show of a hero saving a damsel in distress. Lu Xuan felt that there was still a gap between him and this ancestor of his. At least, he wasn't that bored …
"The steamed buns she steamed were definitely the best steamed buns I've ever eaten, and she was definitely the most beautiful and most gentle woman I've ever seen. Even in the endless years that followed, I would still eat one every day. However, I would always feel that the steamed buns that weren't made by her taste terrible, but I would still eat them because it was the only way for me to remember her."
The frivolous smile on Ye Tian's face had already disappeared, replaced by a trace of sadness. This was the insurmountable gap between a cultivator and an ordinary person. Ye Tian had lived for thirty thousand years, but his wife probably wouldn't live past a hundred years.
"I lived with her for a year, carefully managing that steamed bun shop. At that time, I completely let go of my obsession with cultivation, as if I was just an ordinary person. Everyday, I would wear an apron and stand outside the shop, calling for more people to buy my steamed buns. Yet, I never got tired. She was also very happy. Since she was happy, I was even happier."
"But perhaps because I let go of everything, I actually felt the opportunity to break through without any warning. In just a year, I felt the opportunity to break through from the peak of the Absolute Void Realm to the Extraordinary Realm. If I told this to others, I'm afraid many people wouldn't dare to believe it."
"At that moment, I finally revealed the truth to her. I am a cultivator, a famous expert in the Heavenly Sword Continent. I even told her the story of how I saved the damsel in distress back then without hiding anything. However, she did not blame me for hiding anything or lying to her. Instead, she gave me two choices. One was to continue cultivating, and the other was to continue living with her until I felt that she was getting old and her looks were no longer there."
"One year later, she and I had a son. That was the only child I had in my life. With my abilities, I could have used all sorts of pills to extend her lifespan. However, she didn't want to. She was different from me. She preferred a simple life. Finally, I couldn't suppress my cultivation anymore. Even though I restrained myself from cultivating, I still managed to break through to the Extraordinary Realm."
"After reaching the Extraordinary Realm, I concealed my identity and continued living with her. However, I was still noticed by the emissaries of the Heaven Region. As a member of the Human Race, I should do my part for the Human Race of the Heaven Region. Although I wasn't considered much to the Human Race of the Heaven Region at that time, I believed that I, Ye Tian, would be able to make a name for myself no matter where I went!"
"She carried the child and sent me off with a smile. She happily said that she finally didn't have to worry that I would feel that she was too old in the future. However, the separation came earlier than she had expected."
"I left her many pills, many martial techniques, and all sorts of treasures. Other than a long sword, I didn't take anything from the Sky Sword Continent with me. I told her to wait for me. She only needed to consume one of those pills to increase her lifespan by a hundred years. Unfortunately, she didn't consume it in the end. Clearly, longevity isn't something that everyone can tempt."
"In my long life, this was the only love I had, and I only left behind one descendant. The reason I left behind my bloodline was because I wanted to see if I, Ye Tian, had any descendants still living in this world. From the looks of it now, my bloodline shouldn't have been severed. In the end, she still managed to step onto the path of cultivation, just like me."
Ye Tian's expression was one of nostalgia as he finished his long speech. It also allowed Lu Xuan to clearly understand the relationship he had in the Sky Sword Continent. It wasn't shocking, but it was extremely warm. Compared to Ye Tian's single-minded devotion, Lu Xuan couldn't help but feel a little ashamed. Ye Tian hadn't had any other feelings in thirty thousand years, while Lu Xuan had already teased quite a few beauties in such a short amount of time.
However, Ye Tian had his own choice, and I, Lu Xuan, also have my own choice. Whether it was Lin Xinyi, Zhang Dongshuang, Chen Xiaohan, or Zhao Binger, they were all rare good girls. How could I let them go? Lu Xuan had never thought of taking in all the good girls in the world, but since fate had brought them together, he might as well let nature take its course.
After saying that, Ye Tian suddenly looked at Lu Xuan, and his tone changed. "Junior, your ancestor, I, am an incredible person. Even if I told you, you probably wouldn't understand. However, since you are my junior, and since you have also chosen to enter the world of cultivation, you must also become an incredible person. Otherwise, I, your ancestor, will lose face.
"The things here are all prepared by me for you. Originally, I didn't intend to leave them for you. After all, my ancestor's last wish was that she didn't want any juniors to enter the world of cultivation. However, I was still soft-hearted, so I prepared some for you. Medicinal pills, cultivation techniques, martial techniques, and even weapons. Of course, considering your current strength, I didn't leave anything too valuable for you.
"The truly good things, I have left them for my inheritor. Don't blame your ancestor for not caring about kinship. If you have the strength to obtain my inheritance, that would naturally be for the best. These things are only a helping hand on your path of cultivation. If you truly want to become an incredible person, you will still have to rely on yourself. If one day, you go to the Heaven Domain and inquire about the name Ye Tian, you will know what kind of person your ancestor is. I believe that at that time, you will work even harder. Now, leave the way you came in, you disobedient little fellow."
Looking at the screen of light, Ye Tian waved his hand, and his silhouette gradually disappeared. In this space, there was no longer any sound from him.
In this bloodline inheritance, Lu Xuan saw another side of Ye Tian. Compared to his identity as the Heavenly Emperor, perhaps Ye Tian's identity was more real. Before his inheritor, he had said that he had devoted his entire life to the path of cultivation, and had dedicated himself to the human race. However, in reality, Lu Xuan believed that if it wasn't for the emissary of the Heaven Domain finding him, Ye Tian would have stayed in the Heavenly Sword Continent to accompany his wife. How could a man who could devote himself to a single person for thirty thousand years so casually abandon his family and children?
In reality, to the human race of the Heaven Domain, the greatest mystery was why the Heavenly Emperor never got married. With his strength, the children he gave birth to would most likely be born with an extremely powerful bloodline. In the future, it was highly possible that they would once again become the cornerstone of the human race. However, although Ye Tian had dedicated his entire life to the human race, he had never compromised on this matter.
Lu Xuan shook his head and began to look through the things that Ye Tian had left behind. The closest thing to him was a weapon rack, and there were all kinds of weapons placed on it. Ye Tian had clearly considered everything. He didn't know what kind of weapons his descendants would use, so he had left behind one of each type.
Saber, spear, sword, halberd, axe, bow, hook, fork, staff, whip, hammer. A total of eleven commonly used weapons were displayed on the rack, and every weapon had an extraordinary luster. Clearly, they were not ordinary weapons.
He curiously picked up the long sword and reached out to stroke the blade. A smooth, water-like feeling came over him, and it was very comfortable. Then, Lu Xuan poured his origin energy into it and was surprised to find that the sword's ability to conduct origin energy was extremely smooth. It was at least an Earth-tier treasure.
Lu Xuan couldn't help but be a little surprised. Could it be that these eleven weapons were Earth-tier treasures? This was a huge value. However, he couldn't help but laugh. For an existence like Ye Tian, finding eleven Earth-tier treasures would be very difficult, right? It wasn't that the grade was too high, but that it was too low.
In reality, what Lu Xuan didn't know was that these eleven weapons were personally refined by Ye Tian. Over the long years, Ye Tian himself didn't know how many techniques he had mastered. Because of this, Lu Xuan was able to obtain all kinds of techniques from the Sword Crystal.
After storing the entire weapon rack into his storage ring, Lu Xuan looked at the rest of the items. There were a total of nine bottles of medicinal pills, evenly divided into three branches. Three bottles for the Physique Refinement Lineage, three bottles for the Spirit Refinement Lineage, and three bottles for the Soul Refinement Lineage.
As for the cultivation method, Lu Xuan wasn't unfamiliar with it. It was the Tai Yi Origin Art. The Tai Yi Origin Art contained three major techniques. No matter which branch the cultivation method of the younger generation was, they would be able to cultivate it. However, this wasn't the complete Tai Yi Origin Art. Instead, it was a cultivation method from the Physique Refinement Realm to the Absolute Void Realm. The Absolute Void Realm was enough to move unhindered in the Sky Sword Continent.
However, this was useless to Lu Xuan. As long as his cultivation level was high enough, he could obtain the cultivation method of the next level from the Sword Crystal at any time.
As for martial techniques, there were even more of them. There was a random pile of jade slips with all kinds of martial techniques. Lu Xuan was dazzled. Although he couldn't use many of them, it was worth praising the fact that all the martial techniques were at least high-grade of the Profound Tier. The highest martial technique was a mid-grade Earth-tier martial technique. With Lu Xuan's current cultivation level, he probably wouldn't be able to cultivate it.
This is really getting rich overnight, Lu Xuan thought from the bottom of his heart …
