I got a little scared and unconsciously moved closer to the dead tree.
Suddenly something fell off my neck. I looked closely and realized it was the pendant Ji Ruchen had given me. Wasn't it supposed to be in my dantian? How did it end up on my neck again?
Before I could think about it, a bright white light suddenly shone, and the leaf pendant disappeared into the tree.
"My pendant?"
I shouted in desperation, but it was no use.
The moment the pendant sank into the tree, it was as if the withered tree had come back to life, becoming lush and verdant, its branches reaching to the ground.
However, this scene only lasted for less than half a moment before returning to normal. The pendant seemed to have grown its own hands and feet, and it moved to my neck and tied around my neck.
Unlike before, the leaf on the withered tree that was almost dead seemed to have truly come back to life.
Just as I was wondering what had just happened and trying to figure it out, I heard a series of calls in my ears.
"Chaochao, wake up, we've arrived, Chaochao...Chaochao."
I opened my eyes and saw Mo Han's handsome, wicked, and arrogant face.
"You're awake. Did you sleep well?"
Was it all just a dream?
I reached up and touched my neck, but there was nothing there; it was definitely a dream.
"How long have I been asleep? Why didn't you wake me?"
"Not long, just a few hours."
I looked around and saw a simple and tidy guest room.
"Have we arrived?"
I asked Mo Han, and he nodded.
"Now that you're awake, tell me where you want to go?"
After thinking for a moment, I said "Minchuan".
I want to go home and visit first.
………………
Mo Han took me to Luo Feng Tang, which was originally a famous temple in Minchuan, but now it had become a Taoist temple called "Si Qing Guan".
Compared to the realm of gods, the changes in the human world are always faster. What takes only a month or two in the demon realm takes nearly a hundred years in the mortal world.
I suddenly wanted to go back.
"Master, Master, are these the two young masters who want to see you?"
A young Taoist priest led a Taoist master leisurely toward Mo Han and me. The young Taoist priest pointed at Mo Han and me and said...
When the Taoist priest saw me, he seemed to have seen something extraordinary. Dragging his unsteady body, he took a few steps to me and immediately asked:
"Is it really you...? I clearly saw you with my own eyes...?"
Looking at the white-haired, frail Taoist priest before me, staring at me with tears streaming down his face, I honestly couldn't recall ever knowing a Taoist priest.
Although I made many friends in the mortal world and knew all sorts of people back then, I never befriended monks or Taoists. For a moment, I didn't know how to answer.
"Long time no see, Second Prince. I hope you have been well."
At this moment, Mo Han interjected with this comment.
The Taoist priest's attention was diverted to Mo Han.
After a long pause, he said again, "It's you. You're still...still alive..."
"It's me," Mo Han replied.
I was a bit confused; I couldn't understand a word they were saying.
He had no choice but to ask, "What are you talking about? I can't understand a word you're saying!"
After that, I looked at the Taoist priest in front of me again carefully, and I really didn't recognize him, so I asked, "Do you know me and Mo Han?"
The man nodded and said:
"I am Gu Changzhou. Don't you recognize me? No wonder, I'm almost at the end of my life, but you are still the same as before."
Time has left no trace on your faces; you seem even younger and more beautiful than before, and even more powerful than those highly skilled cultivators.
If you and your elder brother hadn't died without leaving any children, I would really have doubted whether you were their grandchild.
