The area of Peach Village was not considered large. It only covered an area of a few dozen miles. All along, there were less than a hundred families.
The oldest children in the village were seven or eight years old. The younger ones were still drinking beast milk and learning simple Qi cultivation techniques from the adults in the village.
Even if they did not become cultivators in the future, they could still strengthen their bodies and enter the mountains and forests to hunt. They would all sit cross-legged on a square of bluestone and face the sunrise, inhaling and exhaling the morning glow.
The current environment here was extremely good. The mountains were clear, the water was clear, and the green grass was fragrant. The lake in the distance was emerald green. Many spiritual birds were drinking by the lake.
There were also some pegasus with snow-white hair. They appeared in groups and lowered their heads to drink from the lake. It was a peaceful scene of a paradise.
Gu Xian 'er changed her clothes. Her white dress fluttered in the wind. She was very otherworldly, like a fairy who was not tainted by the mortal world.
Although she liked the wide-sleeved flowing fairy dress that Gu Changge bought with her very much and always wore it, she had put it away now.
During the time in the Heavenly Tomb, she had grown a little taller. The wide-sleeved flowing fairy dress that was originally suitable for her no longer fit her.
"This bluestone is still here …"
Gu Xian 'er found a bluestone that was almost half the size of a person by the lake. She jumped lightly and jumped on it. Then, she lightly bounced.
A hint of joy appeared on her peerlessly beautiful face.
When she was cultivating as a child, she often sat on this bluestone, inhaling and exhaling the morning glow of the sun and moon. She would sit there for several days.
To Gu Xian 'er, this was like an old friend.
She did not expect that after so many years, this bluestone was still here, majestic and unmoving.
Yao Yao was like a little adult. She put her hands behind her back and followed behind Gu Xian 'er. Seeing her like this, she wrinkled her little nose and said, "Big Sister Xian' er, you are always like this. No wonder Master always says that you are like a little girl who never grows up."
Her voice was clear and crisp, with a hint of softness. However, she had the air of an elder as she scolded Gu Xian 'er.
Gu Xian 'er giggled. She didn't care about her fairy-like temperament. She took off her jade boots, and her small, sparkling, translucent, and small feet swayed into the lake. There, she played with the lake, and her feet rippled.
Seeing that Yao Yao was about to scold her again, she immediately rolled up her sleeves, grabbed the little girl, and held her in her arms.
"You're clearly just a little girl, yet you're always lecturing me. I'm your older sister. "Gu Xian 'er pinched her nose and smiled.
After returning to Peach Village, she reminisced about old times with the group of teachers and villagers. She also talked about the things that had happened in the past few years. She told them about her experiences so that they could relax.
Later on, he also gave some small toys to some of the children in the village. As if he was still a child, he played with them for a long time.
Gu Xian 'er didn't show the slightest bit of worry. She was still as optimistic and cheerful as before.
She also didn't talk about the many dangers she had experienced in the Heavenly Tomb this time. She didn't want the villagers and teachers to worry. It was as if these years in the outside world were really endless training and tempering.
Now that she finally had some free time, Gu Xian 'er also wanted to ask the question she was most concerned about. Where did Big Sister Tao Yao go?
Why couldn't she sense any aura or fluctuations related to her? It was as if she had suddenly evaporated from this world.
To her, Tao Yao was like a senior sister to her. She was one of the people who treated her the best in this world.
"Big Sister Xian 'er, you don't want to be my sister. You want to be my master's wife. I can see that."
Although Gu Xian 'er pinched Yao Yao's nose, she still acted like an elder. Then, she directly and mercilessly exposed Gu Xian' er's thoughts.
Gu Xian 'er suddenly panicked when she heard her words. She stuttered and hurriedly said, "You … you little girl, what nonsense are you saying? Be careful that I don't beat you up. Let me tell you, even your master doesn't dare to provoke me. If he dares to provoke me, I'll beat him up too. "
"You can't beat Master. It's obvious that Master always bullies you. I see it all the time."
Yao Yao mercilessly exposed her again.
Gu Xian 'er was angry and embarrassed. She lightly knocked Yao Yao's head.
This little girl looked so cute just now. Why was she not cute at all and not honest at all now? She looked like an adult. Not only did she act like an elder, but she was also sentimental.
However, when she thought of how this little girl sat alone at the entrance of Peach Village, as if she was waiting for someone, she felt a little heartache.
"That irresponsible master of yours left you in the village and didn't care about you anymore. What a heartless person." She began to criticize Gu Changge.
Of course, Gu Xian 'er also knew that Yao Yao was like this because of her past experience.
She belonged to the other half of Tao Yao's Dao fruit after Tao Yao's nirvana. She was flawless and did not have any karma with Tao Yao. She could also be understood as Tao Yao's biological sister.
It was also because of this that Yao Yao did not grow up or age. It was as if her age was forever frozen at this moment.
The children who used to play with her had all grown up and started their own careers. They had grandchildren and granddaughters, and they had a house full of grandchildren.
However, she was still the same as before. She was only a few years old and could never change.
Although Yao Yao looked very young, she was actually very mature and sensible. This made Gu Xian 'er feel a little heartache.
Originally, she had an elder sister who could take care of and accompany her. However, even that elder sister had completely disappeared. There was no trace of her.
As for Yao Yao's master, Gu Changge, there was not even a shadow of him. It was as if he had long forgotten about this little girl.
"Sister Xian 'er, you can't say that about Master. Master is just very, very busy. He doesn't have time to visit Yao Yao. He must have a lot of things to do every day. He can't cope …"
Yao Yao saw that Gu Xian 'er was criticizing Gu Changge. She could not help but defend Gu Changge.
Although she said this, there was still a hint of sadness in her eyes.
Gu Xian 'er could not bear to say harsh words to this little girl who was so sensible that it made her heart ache. She reached out and patted her head. "Sister will take you to your master. I will also pull his ear and ask him why he hasn't come to visit Yao Yao for so long."
"Sister Xian 'er, you are so impatient and clumsy. Master will not like it. He only likes mature and steady girls like me …" Yao Yao said in the tone of a little adult.
Gu Xian 'er suddenly felt an itch in her teeth. She really wanted to pick her up and give her a good beating.
However, after thinking about it, she decided against it. She hugged Yao Yao and gently swayed her slender ankles in the lake water.
"Yao Yao, do you know where Sister Tao Yao is now?"
She looked into the distance at the mountain range in the distance and couldn't help but ask softly.
Hearing this question, Yao Yao could not help but look puzzled and confused.
She shook her little head and said, "I don't know where she went either. It seems that one day, a beautiful big sister in red came to find her, but she suddenly disappeared. She didn't say anything to all of us. I only heard that beautiful big sister in red say something like the truth …"
"A beautiful big sister in red? The truth?"
Gu Xian 'er was also confused. She had never heard of Sister Tao Yao having a friend. Moreover, it was a beautiful big sister in red.
A hint of sadness appeared on Yaoyao's face. She raised her eyes and turned her head to ask, "Big sister Xian 'er, do you think big sister has really disappeared from this world? I can't even sense her aura, as if she has really been erased from my memories. Many people in the village, for some reason, seem to have gradually forgotten about big sister."
"Even Grandpa Village Chief is the same. One day, I went to ask him if Sister would come back. He only thought that I was asking about Sister Xian 'er's whereabouts. He did not seem to remember that I have a sister at all. "
"Even some of the villagers began to feel that the withered peach tree at the entrance of the village was blocking the road. They wanted to cut it down and widen the road at the entrance of the village …"
"Why is it like this …"
"I'm so scared. I'm scared that one day, even I will forget about Sister's existence. Then, all traces of her existence will really disappear, as if she had never existed. As if she really did not exist. "
"Wuwuwu, why is Sister also disappearing? Master also did not come to see me. Do they not want Yao Yao anymore? Yao Yao has always been very sensible and obedient … "
A string of tears rolled down the little girl's face like pearls from a broken necklace.
She sobbed and her eyes were red. It was as if she wanted to vent all the fear and grievances she had been feeling during this period of time.
Hearing these words, Gu Xian 'er was stunned. She did not expect such a thing to happen during this period of time.
At this time, she also realized that when she returned to Peach Village, many villagers seemed to be silent about Tao Yao. She originally thought that it was because they did not want to be sad.
However, she really did not expect that it would be for such a reason.
Why would Tao Yao's existence gradually disappear from everyone's minds? Did that mean that all traces of her existence would also disappear from this world?
At this moment, Gu Xian 'er suddenly thought of the most likely possibility. Dao Assimilation!
Tao Yao was very likely in a dangerous situation. Transforming her body into Dao would not only erase her cultivation, but also erase all of her karma, traces, and traces.
It was equivalent to truly disappearing. Even the traces of her existence would be dissolved. It was as if she did not exist in this world.
She had never appeared, whether in the past, present, or future.
It was no wonder that with her current cultivation, she could not detect or sense Tao Yao's aura. It was because Tao Yao's aura no longer existed.
"Why did this happen? What happened?" Gu Xian 'er's face was a little pale.
At this moment, she suddenly thought of many things. Could that red-robed woman be the red-robed female demon who gave Gu Changge an immortal corpse as a congratulatory gift on the day of Gu Changge's wedding? Could she be Gu Changge's former disciple?
In fact, although Tao Yao had never mentioned it, Gu Xian 'er knew that Tao Yao and Gu Changge definitely had some relationship before.
If that red-robed woman was Chan Hongyi, then it seemed normal that she knew Tao Yao.
"Demon Mountain. I have to go to the Demon Mountain."
Gu Xian 'er thought of the faction that the red-robed female demon had established. If the red-robed female demon was still around, then perhaps she could ask about Tao Yao's whereabouts.
Without explaining too much to Yao Yao, Gu Xian 'er waved her hand. The void in front of her blurred, and a path appeared.
She did not bother to put on her jade boots. Taking Yao Yao with her, she stepped into the path.
The Demon Mountain was billions of miles away from here, and there were many spatial barriers. However, with Gu Xian 'er's current strength, she arrived in a flash.
"Why …"
"There's no more aura in the Demon Mountain. She seems to have completely disappeared."
Gu Xian 'er appeared in the sky. Looking at the area covered in endless demonic Qi, she was completely stunned.
"The truth …"
"The truth …"
"Is the truth that they are talking about going to the past to find the truth of the Forbidden Era? If this is a kind of obsession, then they will not give up until they reach their goal. 3.0 can return to the past and cross the river of time. What kind of terrible karma and backlash would one have to bear … "
At this moment, Gu Xian 'er seemed to have thought of the two's ending. She was a little lost.
Even with her current cultivation, she dared not say that she could really cross the river of time and return to the past.
Moreover, the Forbidden Era had long been shattered and blurred. Even the river of time had collapsed, buried in the chaos of nothingness.
Even if they could cross the river of time, they would probably be lost in the boundless darkness, unable to find the era they were looking for.
Suddenly, she thought of something, as if she had grasped at a life-saving straw.
"Gu Changge. Yes, Gu Changge must have a way. He can definitely save them. After all, the Red Robed She-Devil was his former disciple. Although he is cold to outsiders, he is only cold on the outside and warm on the inside. He can't leave them in the lurch."
Gu Xian 'er really did not want to see Tao Yao, whom she saw as family, disintegrate into the Dao and completely disappear from the world.
After returning to Peach Village with Yao Yao, she planned to bid farewell to her master and the villagers. She also told them not to touch the peach tree at the entrance of the village. She was going to take Yao Yao to find Gu Changge.
However, Yao Yao seemed to know what she was going to do. She did not want to trouble her, so she insisted on staying in the village.
Gu Xian 'er could only give up. After bidding farewell to the others, she turned into a ray of light and headed to the Immortal Region with the Big Red Bird. She was going to the Heaven Crusher Alliance to find Gu Changge.
At the same time, something big was happening in the palace where the headquarters of the Heaven Crusher Alliance was located.
