At this moment, Huang Shan stood opposite Jiang Yun, looking at his calm face. After she said a word, he did not come up to hug and comfort her. A trace of sadness rose in her heart.
How she wished she could see Jiang Yun sense her feelings, rush over to hug her and whisper comforting words. She cried bitterly. Even if she couldn't bring Jiang Yun to Cuizhu Island, it would leave a deep impression on them for a deeper relationship in the future.
But seeing that Jiang Yun still didn't move, Huang Shan's hope slowly sank. Her eyes turned red and she said in a low voice:
"Junior Brother Jiang, I have delayed my cultivation over the years because of the Huang family's affairs. I am sorry to disappoint you."
"Senior Sister, sit down."
Jiang Yun was brought back to his senses by Huang Shan's voice. He pointed with his right hand towards the high chair in the cave hall.
Huang Shan was in a daze. She walked to the chair, sat down, and stared at Jiang Yun blankly.
"Sister, the world is full of troubles, only immortality is eternal. If you can reach the Golden Core stage, it will only take a moment to establish the Huang family."
Jiang Yun spoke in a calm voice. He had just gained a new understanding of the state of mind. Where the heart is, that is where it belongs. Cultivating immortality with a mortal mind requires returning to the mortal mind.
As the saying goes, mountains are not mountains, and water is not water. Now Jiang Yun has reached the state where he sees mountains as mountains and water as water again.
"Yes, everyone understands the truth, but when I saw the Huang family fall apart and the once bustling family disappear into thin air, I couldn't calm down. Even if I cultivated to the Golden Core and established a family, it would not be the same family I once was."
After hearing Jiang Yun's words, Huang Shan smiled sadly and said that what she wanted to establish was not just the Huang family, but the family she once knew.
"Yes, throughout life, we are entangled in fame, wealth, immortality, family, and love. All these invisible and intangible things. Who can transcend them like a saint?"
Jiang Yun sighed, and after saying this, he looked at Huang Shan, who had a worried look on her face, and continued:
"Sister, the Huang family has its own problems to deal with. How could you know that the Huang family would definitely fall apart without you? All you're asking for is the feeling you once had."
Huang Shan felt doubtful after hearing this.
"Yes, is what I want really the revival of the Huang family? I'm afraid that's not entirely true,"
Huang Shan thought about this and began to examine herself in her heart. Was what she wanted what Jiang Yun said, the good old days? And the faces of Huang Fei, Huang Lin, Huang Quan, and the Huang family members who arrived one by one appeared in her mind.
Are they also willing to work hard for the continuation of the Huang family? If any of them, after reaching a high level of cultivation, wants to establish the Huang family, it is indeed just a matter of a snap of the fingers. Wasn't his own Huang family also founded by a Jindan ancestor?
Looking at Huang Shan lost in thought, Jiang Yun felt a sense of peace in his heart. He had completely let go of this agreement. If Huang Shan could move on, the two of them would actually have a little bond in the future.
But if she continues like this, she is afraid that when she goes into seclusion in the future, she will get the news that the other party has passed away.
"Immortals do not live with mortals, it is indeed so!"
Jiang Yun had a different understanding of this sentence. In the immortals' concept of time, a nap might very well be the eventful life of a mortal. If one rashly walks into the heart of a mortal, how many partings will one have to experience?
But it is also because of the transcendent state of immortals that they pay more attention to improving their state of mind.
“Everything changes, but my heart remains constant!”
Jiang Yun finally had the mentality of an immortal at this time. He understood a little bit about the feeling of an immortal. It was just that he had just experienced all of this, so he felt it seemed even more precious. But what if he experienced it twice, three times, four times, or even countless times?
By that time, would my heart still be stirred? If I wanted to experience this feeling at that time, would I need to seal my memories and come to the mortal world to experience it, just like an immortal?
Huang's heart was also filled with mixed emotions at this moment. From her previous conversation with Jiang Yun, she felt that this junior brother in front of her had a stronger sense of transcendence, as if he would ascend to heaven at any moment. He had completely left this world.
After all, they are not from the same world. He is just an ordinary person who clings to his family, while the other is a banished immortal from heaven.
Huang Shan finally made up her mind after thinking about this. She stood up, walked to Jiang Yun, bowed politely, and said softly:
"Junior brother, I came here this time to buy foundation-building pills for the Huang family. Junior brother, you have refined foundation-building pills before. I wonder if you can ship a few to the Huang family."
Huang Shan completely gave up the idea of becoming a Taoist couple with Jiang Yun. While they still had a bond as fellow disciples, she took the opportunity to make what was considered a final request.
"Okay, Senior Sister, I hope that among these foundation-building pills, there is one for you."
"Yes, this time the Huang family's foundation building is determined by cultivation, and I am ranked first."
Huang Shan only regards her family as more important, but she is not a fool. At the same time, an idea arose in her heart. No matter how outstanding her junior brother is, as long as her own cultivation level is high, wouldn’t it be natural for her to become a Taoist partner with her junior brother?
Jiang Yun looked at Huang Shan calmly. She still looked the same as before, but her youthfulness had completely faded away, leaving only eyes that had experienced vicissitudes of life.
"The cultivator who refines foundation-building pills in Biyun City is called Wu Yuan. I still have some connections with him. Just find him and mention my name."
After hearing Jiang Yun's words, Huang Shan finally felt relieved and nodded. She opened her mouth to say something, but seeing Jiang Yun's calm face, she turned and left.
"Senior Sister, I hope that next time we meet, we can communicate as normal fellow Taoists."
Huang Shan, who was about to walk out of the cave, heard Jiang Yun's words behind her. She stopped in her tracks and left the cave without turning around.
Jiang Yun, sitting on the chair in the cave, watched Huang Shan slowly leave, and let go of the last thought in his heart.
“Although there are many monks, it is difficult to find a Taoist companion.”
A thought flashed through Jiang Yun's mind. The Dao couples of immortal cultivators differed from ordinary people in their marriages. Mortal couples were more motivated by lust and the desire to continue the family line. However, the Dao couples of immortal cultivators were meant to support each other and walk the path of the great Dao.
If the Taoist partner is not the right one, not only will it not be a help on the road to cultivation, but it will also affect the normal practice. Therefore, most cultivators do not easily look for a Taoist partner.
At this time, Huang Shan, who had left Pearl Island, could no longer hold back her tears. Her face was covered with tears, which fell drop by drop onto the endless ocean along with her spirit boat in mid-air.
