"So, simply and directly, what's the situation between you and that Wang Xuan?" Su Xuan was very concerned about her daughter and felt that the companies she took over were doing well, but the issue of her personal destiny was still hanging and needed intervention.
"My friend, I haven't seen you for a long time. I miss you very much. You don't have to worry about it." Zhao Qinghan said with a smile.
"Just be cool. Whoever has never been young can see his true feelings clearly after being separated for a long time, right?" Su Xuan tapped her fair forehead.
Then she added: "When your father went to the old land, he visited Wang Xuan's parents and told them not to leave in a hurry when Wang Xuan comes back..."
"Hey, what did my dad get involved with?" Zhao Qinghan really didn't know that Zhao Zejun was so concerned and said hello personally.
"Aren't you afraid that if he appears, he will run away again after only two days? He seems to be taking root in the deep space of the universe. If you don't see him this time, will you have to wait another three years or ten years?"
Su Xuan stirred the coffee and said: "Back then, he saved your father, and Lao Zhao liked him very much..."
"Mom!..." Zhao Qinghan was not calm anymore. She had been busy with her career these years and it was very fulfilling. She also looked back and asked herself about her true feelings. After many years of separation, she really wanted to see Wang Xuan, but her parents were like this
Being proactive made her feel embarrassed, as if she had become a married woman who hated herself.
Old earth, outer space, near the moon, silver spaceship orbiting.
Wang Xuan said: "At the beginning, the Xinxing people dug out five mother ships from here, and they once killed the five super chaebols. They should have dug them all out, but if there are any residues, you can come and take a look in the future."
The mechanical bear nodded and said: "It seems to be a stranding place where ancient people from another universe crashed."
With a flash of silver light, the spaceship moved away, approaching the old land silently.
It has to be said that after multiple fusions of ancient spaceship wreckage, the current silver spaceship has excellent performance, and its stealth and anti-lock capabilities have been qualitatively improved.
It is early summer now, and there are many mountains around Yuncheng, which are lush and full of life. That day, Wang Xuan came back, without any trouble, and the silver spaceship landed in the mountains.
"You know you're coming back?" Although he was somewhat used to it, Wang Zesheng still couldn't hold it back and slapped him directly on the back of his neck.
"I won't leave this time, I want to stay at home for a long time." Wang Xuan said quickly, even if he is an Earth Immortal, he has to passively bear the beating of Lao Wang.
We haven’t seen each other for more than two years, especially since he ran away without staying for a day after he came back last time, which made his mother Jiang Yun angry and came over to educate him.
"Son, you have gone crazy. If this continues, your human qualities and human affinity will become weaker and weaker, and you will gradually become indifferent and ruthless, and become a mere cultivation tool. This is not a good thing.
."
"How is it possible? I am who I am. No matter when or where I am, you are my parents. The family relationship will not fade, but will only become stronger and stronger."
"Don't put it so nicely, let me ask you, eight years after the end of Chaofan, how many days have you stayed in the old land? You have been in the universe all year round, thinking about Chaofan every day. If things go on like this, decades later, what impression will you have of your home?
, how much of your life does the memory of the people around you account for? Everything in the present will slowly fade away. Until one day looking back, you will find that the people you once cared about can't even remember their appearance.
Even their faces are blurred. Is this the practice you want, the transcendence you want to achieve?" Jiang Yun snapped and scolded unceremoniously.
Wang Xuan was startled. This... seemed to make sense. Did he really practice just for the sake of practicing when he embarked on the path of spiritual practice? If even the people around him were forgotten in the end and dimmed in his memory, this extraordinary path would still be
has no meaning?
The reason why he stayed and did not cross the sea with the immortals was because he was an emotional person who could not let go of his relatives in the real world. He was a flesh-and-blood person, not a pure cultivation tool.
But over the years, he has indeed deviated from his original intention.
"Mom, you are breaking my Taoist heart." Wang Xuan said with a smile, walked over quickly, put his arms around his mother's shoulders, apologized there, and said he wouldn't leave this time.
"What kind of Taoism do you have!" Wang Zesheng felt that he had been too wild in the past few years and had not returned home. He didn't like him and wanted to slap him again.
"Stop fighting." Jiang Yun stopped him quickly. Over the years, they had been together less and more apart, and more than two years had passed. Although she scolded him, she was still very concerned and worried about Wang Xuan, fearing that something would happen to him outside.
In the evening, Wang Xuan's mother prepared a table of delicious dishes, which were all his favorites. In the night, after eating delicious meals at home, he was slightly lost in thought. How long had it been since he sat down to eat with his family?
Over the years, in the secret realm and in the depths of the universe, he often went into ineditation due to circumstances. This does not mean that he did not need to eat. There were also times when he was eating various compressed foods.
"Mom, the food you cook is so delicious." These were words that came from his heart. If he looked carefully, he could see that his mother had some gray hair on her temples, and she was indeed a bit old.
He once suspected that his parents might be "strange people", but now he sees that they have aged a bit with the passage of time, and his nose can't help but feel slightly sore.
Being busy practicing and staying away from his parents, he reflected in his heart and realized that it was indeed time to change. His parents who were getting older were not strange people, and one day he might lose them.
"Dad, let me drink a glass of wine with you." He discovered that he still had some of the fairy wine he brought out from the curtain at home. Although it no longer had extraordinary properties, the wine still had a strong aroma.
This dinner made Wang Xuan feel that he had "revived" and returned, forgetting everything in the universe and becoming a normal person.
Suddenly, Wang Xuan felt a sense of restlessness. He quickly concentrated and sensed carefully that in the world behind Mingtu, over the hazy sea, there were spirits flying by. Even the one he wanted to jump into the sea and return to, but held back, was only blurry.
emerged, where he faced him in the real world.
A reunion meal actually caused strong fluctuations in his soul, which resonated with him and seemed to want to return, but finally disappeared. On the sea, there were rough waves, and destructive materials and forces fell down. His soul evaded in time and went away.
.
Just one meal caused the reappearance of his soul, and Wang Xuan's inner thoughts were ups and downs.
He was reflecting on whether it was worth exploring outside for so many years. After all, except for the Royal Dao Flag, he had found nothing else, and there was still no clear prospect for the transcendent road after decay.
Wang Zesheng drank a few glasses of wine and was slightly tipsy. He took out the records in the miscellaneous books and reasoned with him.
"What are you thinking about? Just come back. The road to transcendence cannot be achieved overnight. It is the result of generations of people searching and a process of slow accumulation. Whether you gain something or gain nothing, those journeys are precious.
What you deserve is, after all, the trajectory you have worked hard for and the direction you have verified."
In the evening, Wang Xuan slept in his room, meditating and observing the sea of haze, hoping to find the Yuan Shen again. He believed that it was not that the Yuan Shen had escaped, let alone "dissolved", but that at the critical moment, he wanted to
Returned but could not look back.
"What you see today is the reflection of the Yuan Shen. He is projecting it. In fact, he has gone very far. He has reached a very important node and has explored the essence of the true source!"
Late at night, Wang Xuan had this enlightenment as he stared at the hazy sea.
He is the spread of Yuan Shen's thoughts in the real world. The two are originally one, and Yuan Shen is the flow of his extraordinary power, his journey and exploration at the true source.
In the early morning, Wang Xuan was in high spirits. He felt that after returning to the old land, his physical condition was better than in the universe. Is this the result of a brief resonance with the soul?
"Wait, where are you going?" Jiang Yun asked him, feeling like he was about to go out again.
"I won't be traveling far. I'm going to Ancheng, a distance of more than a hundred miles, to see Chen Yongjie, Qingmu, and Qin Cheng. I'll be back for dinner in the evening." Wang Xuan replied.
"There's something wrong with your social circle. Don't you notice anything unusual? You get together with them every time, not even anyone of the opposite sex. This is not right for you. Do you only like to get along with people of the same sex?"
When he heard Lao Wang slandering him like this, Wang Xuan's mouthwash spat out far away. Even his father couldn't bury him like this.
"They are all married and have children. Then look at yourself." Wang Zesheng struck twice.
"Dad, what did you say!"
"I'm talking about you!" Jiang Yun also stood on the united front.
"Are you going to hold a criticism meeting for me?" Wang Xuan realized what they were going to talk about.
"A few years ago, you mentioned the names of some girls and said you wanted to bring back a daughter-in-law. Now you are completely acting like you want to be alone for the rest of your life." Jiang Yun said.
Wang Xuan said: "Aren't all the girls I know become immortals? They are all gone and have left this world."
If you put this kind of statement to the outside world, it would be too loud, but it is indeed true.
Jiang Yun said to tell him not to run around today, someone might come as a guest.
"Who?" Wang Xuan asked.
"Zhao Zejun and his girl." Wang Zesheng informed directly.
"Zhao... Qinghan." Wang Xuan was surprised.
Even Jiang Yun couldn't help but slap her, and said: "You practice every day, have you become stupid? You almost didn't remember the girl's name, and you almost forgot it?"
"I haven't forgotten, haven't we seen each other for several years?" He stepped back and walked out.
"Practice really makes people indifferent. You are almost becoming a ruthless person. You used to talk about her a lot, but in recent years, you have almost never mentioned it. You had physical problems and you were in seclusion for three years. Zhao Qinghan spent a huge amount of money.
I have reorganized a life science research institute just to treat you and help you recover." Jiang Yun scolded.
Wang Xuan was in a trance for a while. He really didn't know the hidden story behind this matter and thought it was just a career of Zhao Qinghan.
"Okay, I'm not going to visit my friends today. I'm just going to walk around in front of my house."
Wang Xuan had a feeling that in this familiar environment, in the place where he grew up, his soul seemed to be resonating and restless, and maybe something would happen.
He walked through the streets and alleys, passing by places he liked to go to when he was a boy. Finally, he left the city and came to the Daheishan Mountains, where he had often gone on outings.
Even after he embarked on the path of spiritual practice, he once had a life-and-death fight with someone here on a rainy day. The perverted Xiao Song once asked someone to hunt him, and he killed Sun Chengkun who was riding a black beast.
The sun was shining, and there was a faint golden glow flowing on the mountain peaks. Wang Xuan sat on a piece of bluestone, and once again he felt an inexplicable feeling deep in his heart. He saw the soul on the hazy sea, and he indeed reappeared on the sea.
Moreover, this time was very unusual. With a chirping sound, a special light of the soul shone down, as if it was going to penetrate the earth of life and connect with his spiritual thoughts. In an instant, he knew a lot about the true source.
