Li Xian nodded, and after thinking about it carefully, he realized that it made sense, as there was only one major sect in this area.
His cloudy eyes suddenly lit up, "Is Senior Brother Zhou Tian still there?"
Zhou Tian was his sect leader at that time, the righteous pharmacist who saved the people from suffering.
“Ancestor Zhou Tian is no longer here. That time…” Song Yu explained to the old man.
Li Xian asked for more names, most of whom had perished in the battle against the demons, while others had died due to insufficient lifespan.
At that time, apart from Zhou Tian, who was at the Divine Origin Realm, everyone else in their sect was a Profound Jade Realm cultivator. In that era of bloodshed, many geniuses perished before they could fully mature.
Ordinary Xuan Yuan Realm cultivators only have a lifespan of three thousand years, while the more powerful ones can have a lifespan of five thousand years. More than five thousand years have passed since their era.
Alas, what a pity, all my loved ones are gone. Is there still a place for me in this world?
Li Xian looked out the door, his eyes becoming cloudy again, as if everything in the world was no longer relevant to him.
silence......
“Ancestor Li Xian, there is actually someone else waiting for you,” Song Yu said respectfully after a short while.
The old man was taken aback. That figure involuntarily surfaced in his mind. He looked at Song Yu with some surprise. Could it be...?
"That's right, it's the one you're thinking of. In order to wait for the beauty in his heart, that senior also sealed himself, using all his cultivation to hold back the passage of time until now."
"I believe in you, I am willing to wait for you; the day you come, I will rise."
"These are the words that senior writer added at the end of 'The Biography of Li Xian'."
"Where is she?" the old man asked, his voice trembling and his eyes slightly red.
"Going east from here, the highest mountain is where that senior went into seclusion."
After hearing Song Yu's words, Li Xian's figure disappeared from his seat and flew eastward as a streak of light.
"Thank you," a voice came from the horizon.
Song Yu also stood up and bowed slightly.
Hopefully, all the waiting will be worthwhile.
Then he turned to look at his disciples and teachers below.
Song Yu looked at Sui Xin, signaling him to recount what had happened on the back mountain.
Sui Xin didn't think much of it and recounted the whole process from entering the back mountain to leaving it, only omitting the part about the illusion.
Song Yu also knew a lot of information, and combined with Sui Xin's explanation, he gradually understood what had happened.
Even though Qingtian had escaped, he still couldn't feel at ease.
"The world is about to change," Song Yu sighed.
The Demon-Sealing Cave and Monster-Sealing Cave have been around for a long time, and some demons and monsters may have taken the opportunity to escape or have already escaped.
The conflict between the eastern and western borders is becoming increasingly serious, the infighting among humans is growing daily, and... the emergence of alien races. All the problems seem to have converged in this era.
However... the children are still too young, their minds are not mature enough, they lack the ability and temperament to stand on their own, and their cultivation level is too low... it seems it's time to make some changes.
We lost a disciple before the mission was even over. I don't even want to think about what would happen if this happened a few more times.
Looking at the still-childish children in front of him, Song Yu shook his head and sighed inwardly.
"You can continue. The mission isn't over yet, and your assessment is still ongoing," Song Yu said.
"Yes!" everyone shouted in unison.
The issues concerning the Taoist priest and the Life-Snatching Grass remain unresolved.
...
There is a secret chamber on the main peak of the Xuanyu Sect. The outside is overgrown with weeds and covered with cobwebs. If you don't look carefully, you won't find that there is a cave.
An old man slowly walked over, his white hair gradually turning black and his wrinkles slowly disappearing. Before long, he transformed into a young cultivator, who was Li Xian.
Two pairs of eyes opened in the main hall.
"Shall we go take a look?"
"This is a matter for our ancestors; it's not appropriate for us to interfere."
Then his eyes slowly closed again.
Li Xian stood before the secret chamber, raising his hand to sweep away the weeds and cobwebs, revealing the door.
With trembling hands touching the cold door, Li Xian thought of the past, and the figure he longed for appeared in his mind.
are you still there?
Li Xian wanted to ask, but found himself speechless. Two lines of tears streamed down his face as he wept silently.
Suddenly a voice entered Li Xian's mind.
Do you remember? The first time we met?
Do you remember? We went on missions together.
Do you remember? We laughed and chatted all the way.
Do you remember? We fought together to slay the demons.
Do you remember what I said last?
Do you remember? What you said last?
"I...have been waiting for you to come back, senior brother."
A beautiful figure appeared, and as she finished speaking, two streams of tears flowed from the corners of her eyes.
“Junior sister, how could I forget?” Li Xian stepped forward.
"Hehe, God is still on my side, and I've waited for you," the woman smiled, unable to hide her joy, and opened her arms to Li Xian.
Upon seeing this, Li Xian could no longer wait. He ran over and embraced the beauty before him, and they wept together.
Thousands of years of waiting, thousands of years of longing, all converged in this moment, in the instant the two embraced...
The two chatted for a long time, every word revealing their joy and longing.
Li Xian is already a half-step Divine Origin cultivator, and his lifespan is still several hundred years. Once he steps into the Divine Origin realm, his lifespan can be increased by several thousand years.
However, Lin Xi has now only reached the Earth Origin Realm due to the depletion of her cultivation to extend her lifespan. Moreover, her origin has been consumed, so she probably only has twenty or thirty years left to live.
Thinking of this, Li Xian sighed again.
"Oh, it's already the best outcome that we've finally met, so don't sigh like that," Lin Xi said, seemingly noticing Li Xian's worries.
Li Xian patted Lin Xi's head and nodded heavily: "Yes, from now on, we'll spend the rest of our time together."
