Chapter 444: Under the Enlightenment Tree

Under the Enlightenment Tree, Ye Suifeng and Su Mu chatted for a long time.

All those old friends have now grown into giants, governing by the rules and calling the shots.

When it came to whether he wanted to meet them, Ye Suifeng politely declined.

Everyone has his own destiny. As long as everything is fine, there is no need to visit them one by one.

"If they knew you were back, they would be very happy."

Su Mu said with a smile.

Ye Suifeng couldn't deny it, but compared to them, he cared more about his family members in Yunxiao City. However, according to Su Mu, they basically lived in heaven now.

Even the Immortal Emperor who governs the Cloud Realm basically lives in the Heavenly Realm and rarely comes down.

"Where is the entrance to heaven?"

Ye Suifeng asked.

"Quadrilateral City."

Su Mu replied, "It is the four outer cities of Yunxiao Holy Land. It is now even more prosperous than Shenwu Immortal Palace, but it does not have much power."

"Their duty is to guard the passage to heaven."

Ye Suifeng was silent. When he settled Yunxiao City in the fairyland, he instantly left the passage in the four outer cities. Now it seems that there is no other change.

"Master Ye, are you going to heaven?"

Su Mu asked.

Ye Suifeng smiled, shook his head and said, "Don't worry."

"I originally wanted to come to the Cloud Realm after I had fully recovered my strength in the Taili Realm, but unfortunately I encountered the invasion of the Dead Realm."

"Since you are here, I will continue my practice here."

The younger generations nowadays all have great magical powers and are at the top of the world. With his current strength as an Immortal Emperor, he probably wouldn't be able to help much even if he went to the heaven.

Moreover...

He was really afraid that Xiao Hei and Xiao Xiao, the two rebellious kids, would hit him with black bricks behind his back.

“That’s great.”

Su Mu smiled when he heard this: "Tianfu City has nothing else, but there are plenty of secret places for cultivation full of immortal energy. I will prepare them for you right away."

Ye Suifeng waved his hand: "No need."

Then, he looked at the swaying branches of the Enlightenment Tree and said with a smile, "It is the most suitable tree to handle this matter."

Hearing these words, the Enlightenment Tree suddenly became cheerful, and its tender branches rubbed the back of Ye Suifeng's hand affectionately.

Su Mu also suddenly realized that when it comes to cultivation environment, what place can compare to the Enlightenment Tree?

It is the backbone of the world, connecting heaven and earth.

At least in the Cloud Realm, there is nothing that the Enlightenment Tree cannot handle.

"So...what about this little girl?"

Su Mu turned his gaze to Fang Xiaoyin, who had been standing aside as an invisible figure.

"She'll just be with me."

Ye Suifeng said.

Then, he skipped the topic and asked, "The Taili Realm and the expansion of the dead zone in other worlds, do you know why?"

Ye Huang's initiative to expand the dead zone was not without purpose.

However, Su Mu shook his head and said, "Since the great battle between the Phoenix Lord and the Dragon Lord, I have not received any news about the Phoenix Lord."

As he spoke, he was suddenly startled and asked, "Do you know what happened between the Phoenix Lord and the Dragon Lord?"

Ye Suifeng nodded gently.

Seeing Ye Suifeng's confirmation, Su Mu finally felt relieved and said slowly: "The battle that year was really terrible."

"If the Cloud Realm had not been protected by tens of thousands of Enlightenment Trees, it would have suffered a great disturbance."

"However, the cause of this conflict is indeed somewhat strange and may not be as simple as it seems."

Ye Suifeng raised his eyebrows slightly. Did Su Mu also notice this problem?

That’s right, he is already a master of Taoism and can see through certain anomalies in the world. Hu Chuang and the others are only at the level of Heavenly Emperor.

“There is indeed a problem.”

Ye Suifeng said: "One of the reasons why I went to the heaven was to figure this out."

Su Mu smiled and said, "If you come forward, you will definitely be able to resolve the crisis in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths this time."

Ye Suifeng was silent. Is this a crisis?

Maybe it's not that simple.

"That's it, don't tell anyone that I'm back for now."

Ye Suifeng said.

Then, they talked about some other things, and Ye Suifeng took Fang Xiaoyin with him, flying upwards along the huge trunk of the Enlightenment Tree.

The wind was howling, and soon they passed through the first level of heaven, but the huge trees were still there, as if there was no end.

Along the way, Fang Xiaoyin acted a little abnormal. She was no longer as lively as usual and instead seemed to be worried.

"What's wrong?"

Ye Suifeng asked.

Fang Xiaoyin looked up at Ye Suifeng, then quickly lowered her head.

After a moment of silence, he whispered, "Brother, your identity is very complicated, isn't it?"

Ye Suifeng burst into laughter immediately.

"Didn't I tell you about this a long time ago?"

Fang Xiaoyin shook her head.

"No, it's not simple. It's very, very difficult."

"I originally thought that no matter how powerful you were, you should be just a big shot in heaven."

"But now it seems that you are ten thousand times more powerful than I thought. It seems that the whole world has surrendered to you."

Ye Suifeng smiled and shrugged: "They are all the same."

"Not even close!"

Fang Xiaoyin said slowly: "In the beginning, my goal was to defeat you, and then slowly, I realized the gap between you and me, and my goal became to catch up with you."

"Now, I can't see you clearly at all. It's like you are the end of the road."

“You can’t see it, and you can’t touch it.”

Ye Suifeng was silent. He didn't know why this little girl suddenly began to lament about life.

“In fact, you don’t have to touch the end point, you just have to keep moving in that direction.”

Fang Xiaoyin shook her head again.

"I know that."

"However, your increasingly illusory identity has caused me to have a big doubt."

She raised her head and stared at Ye Suifeng in a daze: "Why do you, a person of your status, keep taking me with you?"

This question made Ye Suifeng silent.

He also didn't know how to reply Fang Xiaoyin.

But Fang Xiaoyin didn't want to continue to be confused, and asked: "This must have a reason, right?"

"I want to hear the truth."

Ye Suifeng was silent for a long time, but after looking at Fang Xiaoyin's clear and sincere eyes, he finally compromised.

"All right."

"I sense a familiar aura in you, but I don't know who it is."

"That's why I keep you with me all the time, so that I can figure it out later."

Fang Xiaoyin was stunned for a moment, then said "oh" softly.

This answer is neither surprising nor shocking; it is very simple and plain.

But it also dispelled Fang Xiaoyin's doubts.

“In fact, sometimes I feel like I am another person, but that other person is also myself.”

"This feeling is very strange..."

Fang Xiaoyin said.

Ye Suifeng looked at the little girl who seemed to have suddenly lost her innocence and sighed softly.

"So you want to find the answer?"

"If you don't want to, I won't force you."

Fang Xiaoyin thought for a while and suddenly smiled.

"Why not?"

"If I didn't have this opportunity, I would probably just live my life like I did before."

"But now that I have come this far, I must go to the end and see what the secret buried in my body is like."

The cheerful girl seems to be back again.

But I always felt that something was missing.

Perhaps the growth of teenagers is just so rapid and sudden.

"Then let's go."

Ye Suifeng smiled and held Fang Xiaoyin's little hand.

"Under the Enlightenment Tree, we will definitely find the answer."

...

In a certain irregular space, Ye Qinmo sat cross-legged on the inky black lake.

If Ye Suifeng were here, he would definitely recognize that this huge black lake was the place where all the evil thoughts of all living beings in the dream world gathered, the Sea of ​​Sin.

Suddenly, a circle of shallow ripples appeared on the surface of the lake, and Ye Qinyu's eyes slowly opened.

"I'm ready for the end."

"Great uncle..."
