The robe had a gold thread base and was made with extremely sophisticated and intricate workmanship, and it was obvious at first glance that it was not made with modern craftsmanship.
The old man kept it as new as ever. After putting it on, he even asked Ye Lan, "Does it fit?"
"Yeah." Ye Lan straightened his collar, the coldness between his eyebrows faded, and he became unusually gentle. "It fits me very well."
So the old man stood up, put on his brocade boots and long robe, and started walking up the mountain.
"Senior Sister, where are you going?"
Wu Heng noticed something strange and asked with pursed lips.
Ye Lan was also wearing the cloud-patterned robe typical of the Xuan Clan leader. Looking back, a rare smile crossed his face. "Follow me, Master is about to ascend."
Ascension.
Wu Heng widened his eyes, was stunned for a second, then quickly got up from the ground and caught up with the two of them.
When they came down, they walked very slowly through the jungle.
Now they were all floating in the air and returned to the courtyard in less than fifteen minutes.
In the yard, Xiao Yunting and his companions were about to go down the mountain to find them, but they were stunned when they ran into the old man head-on.
"Haha, since we are destined to meet, let's sit for a while."
The old man smiled and suddenly raised his hand and waved his sleeves.
A breeze blew out from the wide cuffs, and everything in front of him changed.
The dilapidated fence wall was repaired and covered with green vines. The vegetable garden in the yard grew fragrant herbs, and the thatched houses all looked brand new.
This scene of turning decay into magic is so mysterious that it makes people stunned.
After the old man went into the house first, Ye Lan stayed behind to explain things to everyone.
"Today, Master will attract heavenly thunder and ascend to heaven. The thatched cottage will become the main target of the thunder. Just don't get close to it."
Hearing this, the three people in front were shocked again.
"Ascension, doesn't that mean a pure body?!" Hong Qing covered her lips and saw Ye Lan nodded, and suddenly her heart was filled with shock again.
"But don't worry, Master has ascended and should be safe." Ye Lan gave them a reassurance. When he was about to walk into the house, Wu Heng grabbed his sleeve.
The young man looked panicked. "So, Senior Sister knew he was leaving a long time ago and came back specially to protect him?"
"Yes, I felt it after I advanced." Ye Lan replied. Seeing his pale face, he couldn't help but shake his head, patted his hand, and said calmly: "It doesn't matter, Master's wish has been fulfilled."
So I wasn't dissatisfied with yesterday's itinerary, nor did I hold a grudge against him for his defiance.
After comforting him, she walked into the thatched hut and came to the old man.
In the last moment before his ascension, he stopped fiddling with the bottles and jars he was researching, and instead faced the gate, looking at the half-dead old tree in the yard.
"Before, I always thought it wouldn't be too late to ascend after I had enough fun and research. Later, when the heavenly rank suddenly stopped, I didn't feel sorry. It seems that becoming a god won't bring much happiness."
"But in recent years, I've gradually come to understand that everyone has their own mission and karma, and simply avoiding it won't bring happiness."
"I still see this in you."
The old man had a gratified smile on his face, his aged face soaked in time, as if he was recalling this exceptionally long life.
Ye Lan could roughly estimate that he had lived for thousands of years, and he had already achieved a pure body before his heavenly rank was broken. He was also the only human being in the world who could ascend.
After seeing Ye Lan's short but eventful life, and his life and death for the people of the world, he finally became enlightened and chose to prove his truth.
"When the cultivators of the world see your ascension, they will have even greater faith in resisting the evils of the world, and the evil fire in the earth veins will be extinguished."
From the Gate of Hell in the Demonic Waters to the Black Water Snake in the Ghost Valley, Ye Lan has realized that the aftermath of the catastrophe seven years ago cannot be solved by her alone.
Only by ascending to heaven and proving the truth can the heavenly realm be opened again, and immortal energy will descend upon the world to cleanse all evil spirits.
Only then can those big demons be purified in one fell swoop.
She originally wanted to come by herself, but when she was in the cave, she received the call of the fairy mountain.
The master is one step ahead of her.
"You don't need to be grateful to me. The world has its own laws of cause and effect." The old man suddenly turned around and looked at her with a smile. "You have already repaid the karma by not killing the child. I should also take responsibility for my own improper parenting as a father."
"..." Ye Lan was silent after hearing this. He caught a glimpse of Wu Heng, who was distracted in the yard, and whispered, "Are you really not going to tell him?"
"Tell him what?" The old man thought it was funny and asked, "Then why don't you tell him that he is the reincarnation of Jiang Ziheng, the remaining soul of that rebellious son?"
Ye Lan: “…”
She pursed her lips and didn't answer.
Because there is no need.
The debt from a thousand years ago was between Jiang Lan and Jiang Ziheng.
Jiang Ziheng became jealous out of love and harmed the people, causing great disaster. Jiang Lan destroyed his soul with one finger, ending the cause and effect.
Wu Heng was just a wisp of soul that Jiang Ziheng threw into the fairy mountain when he was bored. He happened to possess the body of the young master of the Pharmacist Sect and should not have to bear those consequences.
So when Fei Tiandu woke up, even though Ye Lan realized that Jiang Ziheng had left half of his memory to Wu Heng, causing his behavior to become increasingly assimilated, she didn't say much.
"Ziheng, Ziheng...you gave that child a good name." The old man muttered the name that was once familiar yet unfamiliar, a hint of regret between his brows, "It's a pity that I'm not a good father."
Thousands of years ago, a witch on the other side of the ocean designed to give birth to his bloodline.
A child with an innocent body and possessed by demonic energy is destined to bring disaster to the world.
But he was proud of his extraordinary medical skills and that he could change fate, so he took the child into the fairy mountain to eliminate the evil spirit in him.
