Although Wei Chongran had powerful cultivation, he could not tell at a glance what Qianji's true form was, otherwise he would have recognized it as the Snow Mosquito Clan in the Beiming Demon Suppression Tower.
When Li Yan paid his respects to Wei Chongran and his wife, Zhao Min simply nodded at him indifferently. There was no trace of joy that came from not seeing them for a long time, and her jade-like face was still as cold and calm as ever.
Wei Chongran then started chatting with Li Yan about some questions about cultivation. After listening to a few words, Wei Chongran glanced at Li Yan.
"You have also cultivated to the False Infant Realm?"
In fact, after Zhao Min came out of seclusion last time, after much consideration, she told him the true cultivation level of herself and Li Yan.
Because Li Yan was in seclusion trying to reach the Nascent Soul stage and could face a heavenly tribulation at any time. At the beginning, the two of them were just afraid of scaring others.
Decades later, some things can certainly be told.
Li Yan scratched the back of his head embarrassedly and spoke in a vague voice.
"Master, when I returned, I was already at the False Infant stage, but I was afraid of causing too much trouble..."
Wei Chongran waved his hand.
"Okay, everyone has their own secrets. Now that you've come out of seclusion, you must have encountered some problems. Tell me about it."
Now he also knew that this disciple must have his own incredible opportunity. After all, he had mixed spiritual roots, but he did not want to ask in detail.
Zhao Zhi on the side glared at Zhao Min fiercely, but then her beautiful eyes kept flashing and her mind was in a state of confusion.
Next, Wei Chongran and Li Yan entered the secret room, and he asked Li Yan in detail about his retreat.
Finally, it was pointed out that Li Yan's state of mind was not insightful enough and he needed to calm down for a while, which was roughly the same as what Pingtu said.
Afterwards, after talking for a few more words, Li Yan came out and left with Zhao Min.
Looking at the two people leaving, Wei Chongran turned to look at Zhao Zhi, who also had a smile on his face.
"When Wuyi gets married, arrange their marriage as well. Then you can rest assured and retreat."
Zhao Zhi nodded. It was time for her to go into seclusion and practice hard.
In the back mountain, Li Yan and Zhao Min were strolling on the mountain path. They whispered to each other from time to time, and Zhao Min would inadvertently reveal a trace of missing for Li Yan.
"Oh, by the way, Junior Sister Bai also came back during your retreat!"
Li Yan was stunned when he heard this, and then his face showed joy.
"Oh? That's great. She and the two seniors finally did not get into trouble in the turbulent space. When did they return?"
Then, Zhao Min briefly explained that Shuang Qingqing had left and Bai Rou had returned to Muliumen. In fact, she only knew the general idea.
Given her personality, she naturally didn't want to inquire about such things.
"Senior Sister Bai has finally entered the Golden Core Realm and has become the leader of a sect. Anyway, it's not too far from the Wuliang Sect, so it's easy for her to come back here. Everything is moving in a good direction!"
Li Yan nodded. As Zhao Min looked at Li Yan and spoke, a strange look occasionally appeared in her eyes.
But seeing that Li Yan's expression of emotion about Bai Rou's return came from the bottom of his heart, she didn't say anything else in the end.
Thousands of miles away from the Wuliang Sect, there is a place with beautiful scenery and rich spiritual energy. More than a hundred years ago, a small and insignificant sect migrated here.
At first, some monks passing by were quite surprised. They didn't know who was so brave as to establish a sect here.
The Wuliang Sect does not allow any other sect to appear within the range of ten thousand miles, let alone within one hundred thousand miles.
Many people who were curious about this, after a little inquiry, became interested in this sect called "Muliu Sect".
Some people even gloated that this unknown little fry would soon disappear without a trace, and no one would ever see this sect again.
But what surprised them was that after the "Muliumen" took root here, they never moved away.
Finally, news came out that although this sect was not well-known, it actually had a terrifying Nascent Soul cultivator.
This is a real powerful Yuanying stage master. He killed countless demon cultivators when the demons invaded. But even so, he should not be able to establish a sect here.
There are some immortal cultivation families and sects on the Wild Moon Continent that have Nascent Soul cultivators, but they can only hold on to a corner.
Just as many people were still speculating, the Wuliang Sect issued a message not long after that the Muliu Sect would be incorporated into their outer sect, and any sect or cultivator who provoked it would be a declaration of war on the Wuliang Sect.
This shocked countless people. In fact, even many cultivators in the Wuliang Sect found it unbelievable.
It is unknown how many monks left the Wuliang Sect to set up their own sects. Later, many people established families or sects, and they were also affiliated with the Wuliang Sect.
But no matter what you do, you cannot move your family or sect to the vicinity of the Wuliang Sect.
Qingqing had made great contributions during the invasion of the demons, but it was unlikely that her sect would be treated so well.
As the top existence on this continent, the Wuliang Sect has abundant spiritual energy and materials for cultivating immortals near the sect, which makes many people salivate.
Some immortal cultivation sects like the Wei family that had Nascent Soul cultivators also sent people to bring letters to ask if they could relocate their sects here, but they were all ruthlessly rejected.
This matter made Yan Longzi very anxious for a while. He was also very upset but could not speak it out. That was the order personally given by the demon envoy. Even the Grand Ancestor Su Changyang had to follow orders, not to mention that he was just a small Jindan cultivator...
As the years passed, this matter was gradually ignored, and a small wooden door seemed to have been forgotten and took root here.
This sect is also very low-key. In addition to growing spiritual plants, they devote themselves to studying the art of puppetry. Most of the puppets they make are directly bought by the Wuliang Sect, so they have no worries about food and clothing.
A large window was opened, and the large dark wooden lattice carved window painted with tung oil was pushed to both sides of the room. The green willow branches hanging outside the house kept brushing against the window lattice.
A girl in a white dress was leaning against the table, slowly flipping through an ancient scroll in her hand. Occasionally, she would frown her delicate eyebrows and fall into deep thought.
"Senior Sister Bai, after not seeing you for decades, I am delighted to see you again in the Desolate Moon Continent!"
The girl in the white dress was shocked when she heard that. When she raised her beautiful eyes in shock, she saw a short-haired young man in a dark green robe in front of the window, smiling at her...
One year later, Li Wuyi's wedding ceremony was held at Xiaozhu Peak. Xiaozhu Peak and Buli Peak were both decorated with lights and colors, and many sects under the jurisdiction of the Wangliang Sect came to congratulate.
After all, this is the wedding of the eldest disciple of a Nascent Soul cultivator, and also the wedding of the two peak masters of the Wuliang Sect. It is difficult to find opportunities to flatter them at other times, so how can these sects miss such an opportunity
On the wedding day, the Wuliang Sect decorated the place with lights and was filled with joy!
At the wedding ceremony, when Wang Tian, Baili Yuan, Du Sanjiang and others saw Li Yan still exuding the aura of a mid-stage Jindan, they breathed a sigh of relief.
After years of hard training, Wang Tian and Du Sanjiang finally broke through to the middle stage of the Golden Core, while Baili Yuan entered the late stage of the Golden Core.
If Li Yan's cultivation level breaks through again in the next few decades, they will really go crazy. Li Yan started practicing late, so his foundation is not as good as theirs, and his aptitude is not as good as many of them.
So even though Li Yan was leading the way, they still felt a little depressed and difficult to accept.
Li Yan noticed the gazes of several people, pretending not to know, and greeted them one by one, while thinking secretly in his heart.
"If it were based on Senior Sister's previous personality, she would have definitely shown herself as a fake infant when she came out of retreat decades ago. I wonder what they are thinking now."
The Nascent Soul cultivator Wei Chongran was very pleased after accepting the kneeling worship from Li Wuyi, Miao Wangqing and Li Changting.
Later, he announced that his daughter was engaged to his youngest disciple Li Yan, and that the wedding would be held at a later date.
For a moment, all the cultivators except a few people started talking again, and the mountain was once again filled with noise and congratulations.
Among these people, Bai Rou, who was dressed in a white dress, had a calm expression on her face and stood quietly in a corner alone, as if she was just a member of an affiliated sect who came to congratulate Li Wuyi...
Three days later, a figure quietly left the Wuliang Sect.
Li Yan was flying alone in the air. He did not bring Zi Kun and Qian Ji with him, but left them in Xiaozhu Peak.
These two monsters can't be found at all all day long. Li Yan went out this time to temper his mind and didn't want to bring them with him.
Li Yan's mind was still recalling the kiss Zhao Min gave him before he left. He still felt a refreshing fragrance in his mouth and a bright smile appeared on his face.
This was the first time he was so close to Zhao Min, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.
After he comes out this time, Zhao Min will go into seclusion again. She wants to try to improve her cultivation again.
The life span of a Jindan cultivator seems to be long, but for an immortal cultivator it is only a total of only five hundred years, which will pass quickly during a few retreats.
What's more, it was difficult for Zhao Min to accept that she was so far behind Li Yan.
Li Yan sat cross-legged on a mountain peak, and a small mountain village appeared in his spiritual consciousness. The scenery there made him feel both unfamiliar and a little familiar. It was the small mountain village at the foot of the Daqing Mountain.
Li Yan did not enter the mountain village this time, but just watched quietly everything that happened in the small mountain village, the rising and setting of the sun, and the rising and setting of the moon.
In the early morning, the people in the small mountain village began their day-to-day work. Smoke from cooking rose in the air. Amid the mooing of the old cows, many villagers had already set foot on the bluestone road...
At night, the only sounds in the small mountain village are the barking of dogs, the noise of children, the whispers of couples, and the coughing of the elderly...
Everything that happened here was transmitted to Li Yan's mind one by one. Li Yan's face showed no joy or sadness. He just listened and watched quietly, like an ancient stone statue, motionless.
Even on a certain day, when in his consciousness he saw Li family villagers being chased by wild beasts in the mountains, with seven or eight people killed or injured, he remained motionless, with no intention of helping anyone.
In this way, Li Yan sat on the top of the mountain for four months, but there was not much fluctuation and feeling in his heart. Then, he left.
From then on, this small mountain village where he was born and raised for more than ten years has become no longer important in Li Yan's heart, like an inn on a journey, which will be left behind after passing by.
In the valley of the "Military Advisor's Mansion", Li Yan sat cross-legged beside a pond, listening to the chirping of birds and the sounds of insects. Scenes from the past appeared before his eyes.
"Master Ji, have you entered the immortal path after reincarnation? Or have you become an ordinary mortal and lived your life again?"
Looking at the valley covered with white frost, Li Yan seemed to hear the sound of soldiers training at the entrance of the valley in the morning, majestic and energetic!
Half a month later, Li Yan's figure rose into the sky from the edge of the pond. From then on, the "Military Advisor's Mansion" was no longer a past that he did not want to remember, but would become the starting point of his journey to immortality.
Halfway up a mountain, there is a platform about 20 to 30 feet in size. On the platform, several huge pine trees sway in the breeze, and the sound of pine waves can be heard faintly.
Under a pine tree, Li Yan looked at these giant pines.
"Although you cannot leave here and see the endless prosperity of the world outside, nearly two hundred years have passed, and you are still as green as ever..."
Li Yan silently looked at the scene in front of him. This was the place where he and Strategist Ji had a life-and-death battle.
