Quanxiu, at the foot of the mountain, is the city of rivets.

Months later, when he returned to Rivet City, the entire city had completely changed.

As the southernmost city in Kyushu, Rivet City once had a relatively large but not particularly large population flow.

At this moment, the entire city seemed to come alive all at once. The streets were bustling with carriages, and people dressed in all sorts of clothes and carrying packages could be seen everywhere.

Shops lined both sides of the street, and the shops were packed with people.

Su Nian was very surprised to see this scene. After thinking about it carefully, she realized that it was the time for the major immortal sects to recruit disciples!

However, due to the rule that Quanxiu only recruits female disciples, most of those who come to Maoding City to seek immortality in previous years are girls of thirteen or fourteen years old. Therefore, even during peak season, there are not many visitors to Maoding City.

At this moment, Rivet City was completely surrounded, wrapped up tightly in layers, as if a stampede could occur at any moment.

Su Nian's expression was somewhat strange.

His gaze swept across the crowd. This year, those seeking immortality were not only thirteen or fourteen-year-old girls, but also many younger boys.

He quickly figured out the reason.

It's probably because his performance in the battle at the Holy Glory Sect was too outstanding that he attracted so many disciples seeking immortality during the peak season.

He sped towards the gate of Quanxiu Mountain and arrived inside Quanxiu in the blink of an eye.

A cultivator flew overhead, attracting the attention of many disciples seeking immortality.

They all looked up and gazed at the figure, discussing it amongst themselves.

Who is that?

"I don't know, judging from his build... he seems to be Young Master Su Nian?"

"What?! It's Su Nian, the only male disciple of Quanxiu who unleashed a celestial Dharma Form tens of thousands of feet high and fought against thousands of demons all by himself?!"

"It's him! It's definitely him! I've lived in Rivet City for so many years! How could I possibly mistake his back?"

Wow! This is the first time I've seen him in person! He's even more handsome than in the portraits!

"How do you know he's handsome if you haven't even seen his face?"

"Su Nian is now hailed as the most handsome man in the South! Do you still need to see him?"

In a corner of the crowd unnoticed by anyone, a young woman watched Su Nian leap past, a smile curving her lips.

She murmured to herself, "You can't escape my grasp, Brother Su Nian..."

Liuli Peak, the summit.

The first thing I did after landing was to go back to Liuli Peak to see if Su Liuli was there.

In his memory, Liuli Peak was a palace surrounded by ethereal mist, clean and tidy, and elegant and magnificent.

But when he saw the current Liuli Peak, he was stunned.

The ground was overgrown with weeds, the palace was dilapidated, and there was no trace of human habitation, as if no one had lived there for a long time.

He strolled across this overgrown land, looking at every brick and tile, and finally entered the Glazed Palace. He walked through the moss-covered corridor and saw the abandoned hall.

He stared blankly at the center of the hall, and in a daze, he seemed to see Su Liuli's figure with her back to him somewhere.

As if noticing Su Nian, Su Liuli turned around and smiled sweetly.

"Nian'er, you've come..."

Su Nian snapped out of her daze and realized that there was no one around her.

He shook his head and sighed, "You're going to fall into the cycle of reincarnation just to give me a lifetime of peace. Is it really worth it?"

He took out his longsword from his storage ring and began to tidy up the weeds on the mountaintop.

If he uses his spiritual power, he can clean up moss and weeds in an instant.

But he did not choose to do so.

They simply cleaned every corner of the Glazed Palace over and over again...

It wasn't until the sun set and dusk fell that the Glazed Tile Palace was finally cleaned up.

He arrived at the summit where the view was most expansive, stood there, and breathed in the fresh air.

The afterglow of the sunset spilled over the several sacred peaks and fell among the dense trees. He stood there alone, as if he had returned to the past.

He took a deep breath and shouted at the sky.

"Since you've chosen this path too, come out and see me!!"

The sound echoed between heaven and earth, spreading throughout the entire show.

Whether they were disciples of Quanxiu, newcomers seeking immortality, or elders from various sects, upon hearing the sound, they all looked towards the direction of Liuli Peak.

"That's... Su Nian's voice?" Inside Quanxiu's main hall, Li Moli heard this thunderous shout and her face showed surprise.

"It's him! Nian'er is back!" Fourth Elder Mo Rouyun was very excited. Among all the elders of Quanxiu, she was the only one who had always treated Su Nian as her own son.

The sixth peak is Bingxin Peak.

Li Baiyu also noticed the voice. She was explaining the immortal techniques and Dao heart to Xu Xinrou on the peak when she heard the voice and looked in the direction of Liuli Peak.

"Su Nian? He's back?" Li Baiyu was slightly taken aback.

Before she could even react, the figure in front of her suddenly leaped onto a flying sword and flew towards the direction of Liuli Peak!

Liuli Peak, the summit.

Su Nian's voice was imbued with spiritual power, and all living things within a hundred miles could hear it.

He closed his eyes, opened his divine sense, and used himself as the center to examine everyone within a radius of ten thousand miles.

Unfortunately, Su Liuli was not found.

She seemed to have vanished into thin air, as if she had never existed in this world.

Su Nian lowered her brows.

He shook his head and sighed silently.

At the same time, another beautiful figure appeared behind him.

He noticed the newcomer, turned around, his back to the setting sun, and gave Xu Xinrou a slight smile.

"Senior sister, I'm back."

Xu Xinrou stared at him blankly, and upon hearing those words, she could no longer control her emotions and threw herself into Su Nian's arms.

She had nightmares every night after witnessing Qian Taotao take away the unconscious Su Nian.

She dreamt that Su Nian was being tortured by countless demons who ate his flesh and blood and imprisoned his soul.

Fortunately, he was safe and sound.

Xu Xinrou hugged him tightly, with a thousand words she wanted to say, but when the words reached her lips, they only turned into a tearful smile.

"I'm so glad you came back safe and sound..."

Su Nian smiled gently, stroked Xu Xinrou's hair, and softly hummed in agreement.
