Da Xuan Country, An Yuan City.
This was a small city in the Liu Province of the Da Xuan Country. There was only one main street in the city, but because An Yuan City was located on the main road, there were many merchants that came and went. Therefore, this small city could be considered quite prosperous.
The majority of the residents in the city were mortals, but there were a few cultivator clans that were hidden in the market. Occasionally, one or two Qi Practitioners could be seen on the streets. Most of them had an arrogant and arrogant look on their faces.
There was a three-story restaurant in the center of the city, and it was called the Fragrant Daoist Restaurant. It was the largest restaurant in An Yuan City. However, those who could afford to dine here were either wealthy merchants or high officials. There weren't many commoners here.
At noon, a man and two women walked into the House of Daoxiang. The three of them looked very young. The man's appearance was a bit ordinary, but the two women were extremely beautiful. Some of the customers in the restaurant were a bit dazed.
"Please come in. Would you like to have a meal or stay here?"
The shopkeeper was a forty year old middle aged man with a lot of experience. He pushed away the waiter who was still in a daze and welcomed them with a smile on his face.
"Arrange for a high class private room and bring us some local specialties." The young man glanced at his surroundings. A look of reminiscence flashed across his eyes as he said faintly.
"Alright, please come in." The shopkeeper respectfully led the three of them to a private room on the third floor.
The private room was quite spacious and the decorations were elegant. Looking out from the window, one could see everything in the city.
"Is this where my husband lived when he was young?" Calan looked out the window and asked curiously.
"That's right. It's just that after so many years, this place has changed a lot. The old scenery is almost gone." Liu Ming sighed as he spoke.
At that time, he was still young and his memories of this place were already fuzzy. The few places that he could vaguely remember no longer existed. However, he could still faintly feel the feeling of home.
Liu Ming looked at the stream of pedestrians outside the window, and an indescribable emotion emerged in his heart.
He hadn't personally visited the mortal world for a long time. Now, as he gazed at these mortals that were like ants in the eyes of cultivators, and they were busy all day long for the sake of making a living. Most of them had no choice but to bow their heads helplessly before fate, and their lives were filled with ups and downs, joys and sorrows, so they were naturally unable to escape their final fate of growing old, getting sick, and dying. For some unknown reason, he felt slightly envious.
For mortals, a few decades seemed short, but it was far more colorful than the hundreds of years, even thousands of years, or even tens of thousands of years of boring time for cultivators.
"Since this is my husband's hometown, why don't we find a place to stay here? My husband has been accompanying us to tour around these days and hasn't prepared for the ascension. It's a good opportunity to prepare." Ye Tianmei's eyes flashed and she said softly.
At the side, Indigo nodded repeatedly.
Although they did not know much about Ascension, they knew that such a great calamity would definitely not be smooth sailing. Liu Ming did not mention this, but with their intelligence, they naturally knew something about it.
"Alright. There is a big valley outside the city. It's near the mountains and the sea, and the environment is quite quiet. It's a quiet place. " Liu Ming was slightly moved. He looked at a barren mountain outside the city, and he vaguely remembered that he had been there when he was a child.
"Sir, here are your dishes." At that moment, the waiter ran up the stairs with a tray in his hands.
…
In the afternoon.
The lazy sunlight poured on the muddy bluestone pavement in the city, stretching the shadows of a man and two women walking side by side.
The three of them were Liu Ming and the other two who were strolling here after dinner.
Accompanied by the noisy shouts of the shops along the street on both sides and the whispers of the passers-by, the three of them were talking and laughing along the way. They were quite content.
At this moment, a few young children's voices by the roadside attracted their attention.
The three of them stopped and looked in the direction of the voices. It was two boys and a girl. The two boys looked to be around six or seven years old.
One of them had dark skin and a simple and honest face. He was also a bit taller than his peers. The other was thin and weak, with ordinary features. The girl was slightly younger, around five or six years old. She had a lively appearance and a pair of big eyes that were extremely lively.
The two boys seemed to be arguing about something, while the girl stood to the side without saying a word. She seemed to have a bit of indifference that did not match her age.
"This time, the old deity from the Barbarian Ghost Sect said that I, Feng Yao, have a rare Earth Spiritual Pulse. In a few days, he will come to take me as a disciple. When that time comes, I will learn great skills that can fly to the heavens and dive into the earth. Then, I will come back and marry Sister Luan Er!" The simple and honest boy puffed out his chest and said with a proud tone.
"I also have a Spiritual Pulse. I will also learn skills to protect Sister Luan Er!" The thin and weak boy stood in front of the girl and shouted.
"Haha, Mo Yuekong, I heard from the old deity that you only have the worst Three Spiritual Pulse. Even if you can barely cultivate, you are still trash. No one will be willing to take you as a disciple! When you meet bad people, can you protect Sister Luan Er? "Feng Yao put his hands on his hips and laughed.
"Three Spiritual Pulse is Three Spiritual Pulse. I can still protect Sister Luan Er!" Mo Yuekong replied without hesitation. Her young and tender face was full of determination.
"Hmph, you always like to talk big!" The simple and honest boy seemed to be a bit annoyed. He went forward and pushed the thin and small Mo Yuekong to the ground.
Seeing this, the lively girl hurriedly squatted down and wanted to help Mo Yuekong up. In the end, because she did not have enough strength, they both fell down.
Because there was a small puddle behind them and the ground was quite muddy, the two of them were splashed with mud.
The simple and honest boy's face was full of pride. He looked at the lively girl and said:
"Sister Luan Er, why are you helping this trash? He can't protect you at all! When I finish cultivating, I will come and marry you! At that time, I will protect you! "
At this moment, there seemed to be an adult calling from not far away. The simple and honest boy hurriedly responded, turned around, and ran away.
"Brother Yuekong, are you alright?" The lively girl squatted beside Mo Yuekong. A trace of concern appeared on her originally indifferent face.
"Sister Luan Er, I am fine. Believe me, I will definitely find a master and learn to protect you! "Mo Yuekong held the lively girl's hand and said seriously.
"I believe you!" The lively girl nodded hard.
At this moment, the two of them felt a soft force supporting their bodies. The two children couldn't help but stand up. Then, a light breeze brushed past their faces. In the next moment, the mud and dirt that was originally covering their bodies and faces instantly disappeared.
Mo Yuekong was delighted at first. Then, he noticed that Liu Ming and the other two were smiling at them not far away. He quickly realized that it was them who helped him just now.
"Thank you for your help, Immortal. I am Mo Yuekong, the third son of the Mo Family in the east of the city. This is the eldest daughter of the Gui Family in the west of the city, Gui Moluan. May I know your names?"
Although he expressed his gratitude, his little face was full of vigilance. At the same time, he pulled the lively girl behind him.
"I am Liu Ming. This is my wife, Ye Tianmei, and Calan. We just happened to pass by this place. It was nothing, so there is no need to thank us," Liu Ming replied with a smile. However, he could not help but look at the thin boy in front of him.
This boy was indeed a Three Spiritual Pulse. What was rare was that he was so young, but he had a rare and precious determination and vigilance.
The two children's family should be a cultivation family in this area. If they really encountered bad people, they could first report their family's name. This could indeed deter people from acting recklessly.
He vaguely saw the shadow of himself in this thin boy.
"If I heard correctly, you just said that you want to cultivate?" Thinking of this, he asked again.
"That's right!" Mo Yuekong said without hesitation.
"For what?"
"To protect Sister Luan Er!"
"Good! I hope you will not forget what you said today and not forget your original intention! Today, I will show you a clear path. Take this item and find an immortal called Zhong Wendao in the Barbarian Ghost Sect. He will accept you as his disciple. " As Liu Ming spoke, a white light flashed in his hand. A white Jade Slips appeared in the air, and he handed it to Mo Yuekong.
Mo Yuekong took the Jade Slips doubtfully and looked at them carefully. Gui Mo Luan also moved closer out of curiosity.
However, at this moment, Gui Mo Luan felt a chill on her neck. A necklace with a green jade pendant on it appeared out of nowhere.
When she looked up in shock, she found that the three people in front of her had already disappeared. At the same time, a clear female voice rang in her ears.
"You have the Sword Communication Body. If you want to cultivate with your Brother Yuekong, you can take this jade pendant and find an immortal called Zhang Xiuniang in the Heavenly Moon Sect. She will accept you as her disciple."
…
Outside of An Yuan City, in a nameless valley between the mountains and the sea.
The forest in the valley was flourishing, and there were many wild beasts in the forest. Nearby villagers would occasionally send hunters to hunt in the valley.
Occasionally, hunters would pass by halfway up a mountain in the valley and were surprised to find that a few seemingly ordinary thatched huts had been built there. A man and two women lived in the huts.
The three of them had a unique temperament, especially the two women. They were so beautiful that they didn't seem like mortals.
Most of the passing hunters were stunned by the three people's temperament and didn't dare to come close. Occasionally, when they passed by the area, they would take a detour.
These three people were naturally Liu Ming, Calan, and Ye Tianmei, who had settled down here.
As time passed, they had already lived here for more than a year.
At this moment, in the largest thatched hut, a green-robed Liu Ming sat cross-legged in a magic array. His eyes were closed, and his body was faintly glowing with black light. Four or five magic treasures with different lights were floating beside him. They were all Xuan Ling treasures.
The Damaged Demon Whip, the Dust Ox Shepherd's Flute, and the Eternal Qu Yao's Sawtooth Sickle were all here. The remaining few were also taken from the Primordial Demon Lord in the Rebirth Land.
Obviously, a special restriction was placed in the thatched hut to isolate Spirit Qi. Otherwise, the spiritual power emitted by any of these treasures would be enough to stir the Spirit Qi of Heaven and Earth within a hundred miles.
Speaking of which, for more than a year, Liu Ming spent most of his time accompanying Calan and Ye Tianmei. When he was free, he would follow Luo Hu's instructions to rest, meditate, comprehend the Heaven and Earth, and refine magic treasures to prepare for the Great Tribulation of Ascension.
