The Sun was setting in the West, shedding down faint red light that illuminated the graveyard, making it even more eerie.
The elder's eyes were as sharp as swords as he stared at the handsome young man before him. His wrinkled face was full of disbelief.
This was normal. After all, Ling Xian looked far too young. Plus, this person had just used the Bone Piercing Mirror and found out that Ling Xian was only 22 years old!
How could a 22 year old young man repair a godly array that even Master Jiang couldn't do anything about?
To know that to protect the Array of Unyielding Emotions, the Yan Clan had exhausted themselves mentally and tried everything they could think of. Yet the result was the same. They could only allow the array to crumble as time passed.
But now, Yan Xiong Fei was claiming that Ling Xian fixed the array. How could the elder believe this?
"It was me."
Ling Xian's expression was calm and unfazed by the elder's terrifying Qi. He glanced at Yan Xiong Fei and gestured for the Clan Leader to take out the array board.
Yan Xiong Fei nodded softly and took out the array board from his storage pouch. He presented it to the elder with a smile, "Ancestor, please take a look."
The elder took over the red and blue array board and looked at it. Though the array board was still broken, 30 percent of the carvings had been reconnected and were now glowing. This alone was enough to prove one thing.
That the array had been restored to 30 percent of its original strength!
"Hahaha, good, good."
The elder's expression was excited as he laughed out loud, "This is great. Though only 30 percent of its original strength has been restored, this is enough. Not only can it protect the Yan Clan's spirit, but it can also ensure that the Yan Clan will never fall! "
To the Yan Clan, they could give up the glory they have today, but they cannot give up the Array of Unyielding Emotions. As long as this array exists, the Yan Clan can continue on!
This was why the elder was so excited.
After laughing for a long while, the elder finally calmed down. He shifted his gaze towards Ling Xian and complimented, "I cannot believe that the problem that has troubled the Yan Clan for tens of thousands of years was solved by you. What a Heaven's Favorite."
"Senior, you have flattered me." Ling Xian's expression was normal and he remained calm.
Seeing this, the admiration in the old man's eyes became even more intense. He smiled with satisfaction and said, "Neither arrogant nor rash. Such a temperament is really rare."
Ling Xian revealed a faint smile, "I wonder if I can pay my respects to Yan Xin Yan now?"
"Haha, of course. If it was anyone else, I wouldn't have let them in. Even if they were disciples of the Yan Family, they would have to apply in advance. " The elder laughed and patted Ling Xian's shoulder, "But you are an exception. Remember, do not do anything disrespectful before my grandmother's grave."
"Senior, do not worry. My ancestor and Yan Xin Yan were friends. As a descendant, why would I do anything disrespectful?" Ling Xian nodded.
"Very well."
The elder smiled in satisfaction. The more he looked at Ling Xian, the more he liked him. After a moment of silence, he made a promise, "You have done so much for the Yan Clan. If you ever run into trouble, come find me here. As long as it is within my capabilities, I will not decline. "
Hearing this, the corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up. What an unexpected surprise. How precious was the promise of a completion leveled cultivator at the peak of the completion level? It would not be an exaggeration to say it was priceless.
Especially since he was about to fight against the Bai Clan, the value of such a promise was immeasurable!
"This trip sure has been worth it."
Ling Xian revealed a smile and paid his respect, "Thank you, senior."
"Haha, no, I should be the one thanking you." The elder laughed out loud, "Okay, Xiong Fei, take Master Xian to my grandmother's grave."
Then, in a flash, he disappeared from where he stood.
"Xian Ling, you sure are lucky this time. Not only did you get the ancestor's approval, you also got his promise." Yan Xiong Fei exclaimed, "You don't know this, but this ancestor's temper is very strange. Even when facing me, he doesn't smile so much, let alone getting his compliments."
Ling Xian grinned and reminded, "Leader Yan, it is getting late. Let's go."
"Okay, I will take you there." Yan Xiong Fei nodded and led Ling Xian to the deepest part of the graveyard.
This place was very empty. Only one tombstone stood there. No matter how hard the wind or the rain hit, it remained unmoving.
The tombstone was about half the height of a person and was made from a very valuable stone. On top of it, there were seven giant black characters that exuded a sense of desolation.
The Grave of Mother Yan Xin Yan.
The moment he stepped into this place, Ling Xian frowned. Because the Painting of the Nine Immortals inside his body was vibrating.
Without thinking, it was obvious that Feng Qing Ming could no longer control his emotions.
"Even after thousands of years, he still hasn't forgotten the feelings he once had. The Immortal of Array … sure is infatuated." Ling Xian sighed and said to Yan Xiong Fei, "Leader Yan, can you stay away?"
"Hmm … okay."
Yan Xiong Fei stayed silent for a while and then walked 10 meters away.
Seeing this, Ling Xian telepathically said, "Immortal, come out."
As soon as his voice trailed off, a silhouette appeared in midair. Then, without another word, he walked before the tombstone. His eyes turned red.
"Xin Yan …"
A trembling call finally reached Yan Xin Yan's grave after countless years and two different spaces. Sadly, her soul had returned to the netherworld and she could no longer hear her lover's call.
Feng Qing Ming's old tears rolled down his cheeks and his face was full of sorrow. His palm softly brushed past the tombstone, but it went right through and he could not touch anything.
"Aye, I cannot believe we will see each other again." Feng Qing Ming sighed deeply, full of sadness, "Xin Yan, I regret so much. Back then, I shouldn't have spent so much time studying arrays. I shouldn't have made you so sad. I brought our flesh and blood to the sea. I am so sorry. "
Waves after waves of emotional calls, waves after waves of sad sobs. Feng Qing Ming's emotions were revealed as he whispered to the tombstone. His voice was full of sorrow and regret.
"What is love in this world …"
Ling Xian silently sighed and did not disturb him. He allowed the Immortal of Array to vent his sorrow and longing for thousands of years.
On the empty ground 10 meters away, Yan Xiong Fei frowned. Seeing Ling Xian standing there by himself and not speaking to the tombstone, Yan Xiong Fei was a little confused.
Sadly, no matter how smart he was, he could not guess what Ling Xian was doing.
Because he could not see the Immortal of Array.
Whether it was with his eyes or his soul, he could not see Feng Qing Ming's silhouette.
This was normal. Even the omnipotent in the Taoism community cannot sense the presence of the Immortal of Array, let alone him. In the entire world, only the owner of the Painting of the Nine Immortals could see him.
Only Ling Xian could do it.
"Xin Yan …"
Feng Qing Ming's heart was filled with sorrow. Two streams of tears rolled down his cheeks as he stared at the tombstone. His face was full of sorrow.
After crying for close to an hour, he finally stopped sobbing. Then, he sighed, "Ling Xian, I have made a fool out of myself."
"No, immortals are men who are infatuated with love. How can you call it a joke?" Ling Xian shook his head.
"Infatuation … it's been an eternity since then. I thought I could let it go. But today, I realize that I still cannot." Feng Qing Ming sighed.
Ling Xian was silent for a while, "I think immortals should be satisfied and not drown in their regrets. After all, if Yan Xin Yan was still alive, she wouldn't want to see you so sad. "
"You are right. I was the one who couldn't get over it." Feng Qing Ming exhaled deeply. Looking at the handsome young man, he said in a serious tone, "No matter what, I have to thank you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't even have the chance to confess in front of Xin Yan's grave. "
"You are being too kind. This is what I should do." Ling Xian grinned and didn't take the credit.
"I, Feng Qing Ming, have done many wrong things in my life, but I've also done many wise things. One of the wisest things I did was to let Liao Cang Qiong be the first to wake up. Or else how would I have gotten to know you? "
Feng Qing Ming smiled and the way he looked at Ling Xian softened.
What he meant by this was that meeting Ling Xian was one of the luckiest things in his life. Remember that he was the Pioneer of Ancient Arrays. To think that meeting Ling Xian was a blessing. How high of a compliment was this?
Even with Ling Xian's calm mentality, he couldn't help but feel happy, "You are flattering me. To be able to meet you is the luckiest thing in my life."
"Haha, let's not flatter each other." Feng Qing Ming laughed and relaxed, "Alright, my wish has finally been fulfilled. Maybe I can let it go in the future."
"It's good that you can let it go."
Ling Xian revealed a smile of relief. To be able to help the Immortal of Arrays fulfill one of his wishes made him feel happy and relaxed.
Next, he was going to form an alliance.
