Lin Huang did not let Lin Xin know about his conversation with the Emperor's Heart.
For the rest of the day, the siblings spent most of their time wandering around Wulin Town, reliving their childhood memories.
The two of them walked the roads they used to walk, and even went to the Reserve Academy they were studying at. They shopped around the small shop next to the academy, and went to the Stable Residence, which had long since changed owners.
They strolled until the streetlights on the side of the road lit up. Only then did the siblings stop at a noodle shop near their home.
This noodle shop was also a place they used to frequent.
The owner was still the same old man from five years ago. Compared to five years ago, his already sparse hair was significantly thinner and whiter.
Business in the small shop was mediocre, and there were only two tables of customers. Lin Huang and Lin Xin found an empty table and sat down. They quickly ordered their food.
"Uncle Liu, two bowls of beef noodle soup, with a portion of beef for each."
"Alright, please take a seat. It'll be ready soon." The old man with sparse hair greeted them and immediately busied himself. Clearly, he did not recognize the two of them.
After a while, the noodles were cooked. When Uncle Liu brought them to the table, he saw the two of them clearly and could not help but look at them carefully.
After a while, he could not help but ask Lin Huang, "Young man, why do I feel that you look a little familiar?"
"Uncle Liu, I'm Lin Huang," Lin Huang answered with a smile.
Only then did Uncle Liu reveal a look of realization. "Ah … You've grown so big in the blink of an eye? I still remember that you used to be thin and small, but now you're so tall? "
"Right, I remember that you have a younger sister, called … Lin Xin?" Uncle Liu clearly did not recognize Lin Xin, who had changed so much since she was a child.
"Isn't it just the girl next to me?" Lin Huang turned his head and gestured.
"Lin Xin?!" Uncle Liu's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief. "Back then, she was just a little pudding, but now she's a big girl! She's so beautiful! "
Lin Xin blushed slightly, feeling a little embarrassed by the praise.
"It's really been many years. Where did your family move to?" Uncle Liu asked enthusiastically.
"We're in Emperor City now," Lin Huang replied with a smile, "We came back to visit during our vacation."
"Oh, Human Emperor City. It's quite far, isn't it? "Uncle Liu clearly didn't know where Emperor City was.
Perhaps because of Lin Huang and the dynasty, everyone in the cultivation world knew about Renhuang City, but it was normal for ordinary people not to have heard of it.
"It's a bit far." Lin Huang smiled and nodded.
"Then you guys should take a good look around this time." Uncle Liu patted Lin Huang's shoulder. "It's not easy for you two to come back. Today's meal is on me!"
"Uncle Liu, there's really no need. If you do this, we won't dare to come back next time … "After Lin Huang evaded for a while, he quickly paid the bill without even taking a bite of the noodles.
Uncle Liu chatted with Lin Huang for a while until the next wave of customers arrived. He then got up and left.
After the siblings finished their noodles, they said goodbye to Uncle Liu and returned to the house where they lived when they were young.
"Do you want to stay for a night? Or do you want to go to the next destination? "Lin Huang turned to look at Lin Xin when they arrived at the door.
"Let's pack up and stay for a night." A sense of nostalgia flashed through Lin Xin's eyes.
"There's no need for that. Let's just set up two tents and sleep in the small garden on the third floor," Lin Huang suggested.
"Sure!" Lin Xin agreed immediately.
The two of them entered the house and went straight to the third floor.
Looking at the vines and plants all over the ground, they reached out and pressed their hands on the wall. All the plants moved like they were alive, making way for the center of the entire garden.
Seeing that, Lin Xin was shocked and asked immediately, "What ability is that?"
"Plant Spiritual Law. Simply put, it's a nomological power that can control plant-type creatures." What Lin Huang did not say was that this nomological power had a certain chance of causing spiritual awakening on ordinary plants, allowing them to gain sentience.
"Can I learn it?" Lin Xin seemed to be very interested.
"Sure, I'll teach you when I'm free," Lin Huang replied readily.
The two of them quickly set up their capsule tents and sat outside the tent to start a bonfire. They looked at the starry sky and started chatting.
It was not until late at night when the lights in the town were almost out that the two of them went into the tent to sleep.
…
The next morning, when Lin Xin went to the second floor to wash up, Lin Huang came out of the tent and walked straight to a corner of the garden.
In that corner, there was a broken flower pot with a small tree growing in it.
Noticing that Lin Huang was walking over, the branches and leaves of the small tree were trembling.
After Lin Huang performed his Plant Spiritual Law the day before, the first thing he noticed was that the small tree's spiritual awakening had been successful and it had gained sentience.
Walking up to the small tree, Lin Huang extended his hand and held the tree trunk. He inserted a sliver of Divine Power into its body.
The small tree began to grow at a speed that could be seen by the naked eye. In the blink of an eye, it grew from the thickness of two fingers to the thickness of a water bucket, bursting the flower pot.
"Alright, restrain yourself for now. You can take your time to grow after I'm gone." Lin Huang patted the tree trunk lightly.
The tree, which had grown to 20 to 30 meters tall, shook its body slightly, and its growth slowed down instantly.
"Since I've successfully awakened your spirit, it's your fortune," Lin Huang continued, "I don't have any other requests, just that you guard this town well."
As soon as Lin Huang finished speaking, he pointed with his finger again and transferred a visualization image called Towering from the True Spirit Guide into the tree's spiritual space.
The tree shuddered slightly and bowed to Lin Huang immediately. Its fresh green leaves shook all over the ground.
Lin Huang did not bother to say anything else. He turned around and put away the tent, extinguished the bonfire, and walked downstairs.
As soon as he went downstairs, the tree's body expanded again. However, the speed was much slower than before.
When he went downstairs, Lin Huang happened to see that Lin Xin had washed up, so he asked again, "Where do you want to go next?"
"The White Capital." Lin Xin thought about it and gave an answer that did not surprise Lin Huang. "I want to go back to the Martial Arts Academy to take a look."
In reality, when Lin Xin wanted to go to Wulin Town as her first stop, Lin Huang had already guessed that the White Capital would definitely be Lin Xin's choice.
Wulin Town had their childhood memories, and the White Capital was where they grew up.
Lin Huang became someone's teacher for the first time in the Martial Arts Academy. Meanwhile, Lin Xin was a student at the Martial Arts Academy. She had even lived in the White Capital for more than two years.
"Sure," Lin Huang agreed immediately. "We can stay in the White Capital for a while. Apart from the Martial Arts Academy, there are many places to visit in the White Capital. There are also many places to eat and have fun. If you have classmates who are still in the White Capital, you can ask them out for a meal or something. "
"Sure, I'll stay for a few more days then." Hearing Lin Huang talking about classmates, Lin Xin felt even more depressed.
She had chosen the nostalgic route because she knew that Lin Huang would bring her out of the gravel world. She had no idea when she would be back again. It was even possible that she would never come back again.
'Maybe this will be the last gathering,' Lin Xin thought to herself.
