As Shao Gong grew a little older, they traveled the world again. Shao Gong continued to diligently study medicine and heal the sick. Long Xun and Yin Chen looked after him and would also help him when they encountered injustice.
Time passed by uneventfully.
Yue Wuyi and Wenren Yu got married. When they celebrated the full moon of their third child, Long Xun, Yin Chen, and Shao Gong arrived gracefully, leaving behind gifts and letters before departing.
I also heard during my travels that Aruan accompanied Xie Yan, and the name of Master Xie Yi still circulates in the world.
Later, Yue Wuyi and Wenren Yu could not withstand the passage of time and passed away.
As the older generation of priests, including Shenye, grew older, they gradually withdrew from the world.
Yin Chen once set aside Long Xun to fulfill his responsibility to the world, and he also changed the dynasty, so the master of the world was no longer surnamed Li.
Prince Changqin, the spirit of the Burning Sword, had completed his cultivation and left Buzhou Mountain on his own, disappearing without a trace.
During Shao Gong's final reincarnation, he was unable to return from near Qinchuan in time. By the time Long Xun and Yin Chen found him, he had already been adopted by the Ouyang family and raised as their own son.
Eight years later, Xie Yan no longer lived there. Instead, Long Xun used the still lake as his residence. Mermaids swam in the clear lake water, and a man in a black robe silently gazed at him from the lakeside.
Time seemed to freeze for a moment, then returned to normal.
When Yin Chen emerged from the water with a faint smile between his cool brows, all he saw was the indifferent man on the shore, whose figure slowly crumbled into streaks of silver light and disappeared.
At that moment, I was terrified, yet I forced myself to remain calm.
Long Xun once told him that when the time came, his true body would awaken, and he would no longer need to rely on an inconvenient spiritual clone to walk the world.
In Buzhou Mountain, the earth shook and the mountains trembled.
The endless, silvery mountain range that lay there came to life at that moment.
The unimaginable greatness of this being caused the earth to tremble and the heavens to tremble with every tiny movement of Buzhou Mountain. Even from thousands of miles away, one could feel the tremors and fear of the heavens and earth.
Thunder roared and boomed incessantly.
Amidst the long, drawn-out roar of the dragon, golden eyes, resembling the sun, slowly opened.
The whole world brightened, a soft golden light spread across it, visible to every living being, and the sky changed color.
The gradually awakening main consciousness received everything the clone had experienced during this long slumber. The calm and boundless sea of consciousness remained undisturbed, and distant memories slowly flowed out from the blank mind that had just awakened.
The magnificent silver dragon, supporting the sky, stood up slowly, its four claws bracing against the ground. Its back almost touched the barrier of the small world beyond the heavens.
Memories, flowing like water, gradually resurfaced. The pale golden vertical pupils shifted slightly, and the next moment, the enormous dragon shadow vanished from that spot.
The strange changes in the heavens and earth lasted for a full three hours.
Yin Chen lay by the water's edge, anxiously waiting for three hours.
His blue-green fishtail swayed anxiously back and forth in the water, so preoccupied with worry that he didn't notice the tall, silver figure quietly approaching from behind.
It wasn't until the silver figure was three meters behind him that Yin Chen suddenly realized what was happening. He turned around, his blue eyes cold and sharp, exuding an imposing aura.
A silver dragon head emerged from the water, its pale golden vertical pupils blinking slightly. Its gaze remained aloof and indifferent, yet Yin Chen inexplicably sensed a hint of grievance emanating from it.
"Ah Xun?" Yin Chen called out. The silver dragon looked at him quietly for a while, then stretched its head over and rested it on the crook of his neck, closing its eyes.
The feeling of embracing him with a clone is completely different from that of the original.
The silver dragon's form gradually changed, transforming into human shape. Its long, muscular arms wrapped around the slender waist of the male merman, pulling him into its embrace.
Skin to skin, without any barriers.
Yin Chen was startled, a faint blush appearing on her usually cool face. She reached out and touched his shoulder, her voice urgent as she said, "A-Xun... not here..."
Long Xun, who was gently pecking at the side of his neck, paused slightly, then hugged him and flipped over. Their long silver dragon tail and blue fish tail intertwined and drew an arc on the water's surface as they dived into the depths.
The mud and sand at the bottom of the lake were clean and clear. The mermaid lay there, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, breathing softly as her lover touched her.
Ripples spread across the lake, one after another. Who knows if those ripples were caused by the wind blowing across the water, or if the creatures in the lake were secretly doing something... something they couldn't help but do when their emotions ran high.
