There are tens of millions of miles between the Land of Nothingness and the Yan Sect. In the past, with the help of the beautiful woman and others, or with the teleportation of the gate, it would only take a blink of an eye to get there, so Wutan didn't think there was anything wrong.
Now that he was flying by himself, he truly realized that the gap between the two was extremely far. It took him a full two months to reach the old site of Yanzong.
After more than ten years of recuperation, the wolf smoke area that was originally destroyed by the sect protection ban has recovered a lot of vitality. However, due to the severe destruction at that time, many places are still barren.
As he walked into this familiar yet unfamiliar place, Wutan's mood obviously changed. Clear pictures and memories that he didn't want to recall but would never forget flashed in his mind like lightning.
This place buried millions of lives, and it also froze his heart.
Wutan did not fly in the air, but walked step by step among the bushes and grass. His white hair fell behind his shoulders and fluttered in the breeze. Looking at everything around him, his mind was filled with thousands of thoughts.
I don’t know why, but after arriving here, the desire to resurrect Chu Yiyan seemed to gradually calm down and not as anxious as before.
"Uncle Xiaotian, why doesn't our master go directly to Beast King Mountain to revive our master's wife, but has to go there on foot from here?" Luo Qiang was puzzled.
"Here," the little fellow looked around and said wistfully, "There are too many memories of your master here. Maybe he wants to relive the warmth and happiness of the past, or maybe he wants to rediscover the long-lost memories, or maybe he is afraid in his heart, afraid that after taking the Tianyin Fruit, your master's wife will not wake up, and afraid that all these years of hard work will be in vain in the end."
What the little guy said was indeed right. Although Wutan didn't show that on his face, he thought so in his heart, so he walked forward, trying to calm himself down.
Hearing this, Luo Qiang looked deeply at the white figure in front of him, with some sympathy and pity in his eyes: "Master Xiaotian, can you tell me about Master's past?"
"Alas, his story is very long, and his life is full of tragedy," the little guy sighed and slowly told what Wutan had experienced over the past few decades.
Just like this, Wutan was in front, and the three little guys followed behind, walking towards Beast King Mountain at a leisurely pace.
Not far behind them, in the sky, Chi Yanzi stood in the clouds, looking down with a sullen face and his fists clenched tightly together. The Yan Sect, which was once glorious and prosperous and even had the chance to become the top sect in Qinglongzhou, has now become a barren land.
The majestic and imposing buildings were destroyed, tens of thousands of disciples died and were buried in the earth, and even more than half of the Bi Bo Lake disappeared, filled with mud and boulders. The culprit for all this was the white figure below.
"I will slowly torture all your friends and brothers to death, and let you live in pain and self-blame for the rest of your life."
Chi Yanzi stared at the backs of Wutan and the others, with a strong murderous intent flashing in his old eyes. As he said this, his inner voice came out. Then he did not continue to follow, but turned into a stream of light and flew to the other side. The end of this direction was Long Village, the home where Wutan had lived since he was a child.
…
After listening to the little guy's story, Luo Qiang clenched his fists and said: "It turns out that Master has experienced so many hardships in his life. But from now on, as long as I am still here, I will never allow anyone to hurt Master."
"You are a man with a conscience," the little guy nodded, then looked at Zhang Shi and said with a pursed mouth, "Boy, according to seniority, you should call Frog Master and Little Tianzi uncles. Now that you have heard the story of your uncle Wu Tian, what do you think?"
Zhang Shi's face darkened when he heard this. He didn't mind if he was asked to call Wu Tian uncle. After all, it would be wrong not to call him uncle when they were so close in seniority.
But this shameless little beast is a complete bastard who would kill someone without paying for his life. What's more, the other party is a monster shaped like a magic frog, and it is so small. If people know that he is a seven-foot-tall man and he calls a shameless little beast uncle, he will be so embarrassed.
"What? From the look of you, it seems that Grandpa Frog is not worthy of being your uncle?" The little fellow looked at him with ill intent, waved his little paws, and smiled slyly.
"Hello, Uncle Xiaotian."
Seeing this, Zhang Shi quickly gave in and called out reluctantly. Having been with this so-called 'uncle' for so long, he knew his nature very well. If he dared to offend him, the consequences would be the same as Gou Yaolong and others.
The little guy chuckled, his eyes darkened, and he shook his head and said, "From your tone, it seems that you are not very willing. Since it is so difficult, it is better not to shout."
"No, it's not difficult at all. Being your nephew is the blessing I have earned in three lifetimes. I am extremely happy. How could I be reluctant? Absolutely not," Zhang Shi said hurriedly, emphasizing again and again.
"You really think so?"
"It is absolutely true. I dare not lie."
"Haha, that's right. Others want to be Grandpa Frog's nephew, but Grandpa Frog is not happy about it." The little guy smiled proudly, floated up with a whoosh, and patted Zhang Shi's head: "Good nephew, from now on, hang out with Uncle Xiaotian. If anyone dares to bully you, come to Shishi. I will beat him so hard that he won't know which way is which."
"well!"
Zhang Shi wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and nodded repeatedly, but he felt extremely bitter in his heart. It seemed that he would have no good days in the future as he had to deal with such a shameless and despicable "little uncle".
After relieving his tense mood a little, Zhang Shi sighed: "In the eyes of outsiders, Uncle Wutan is a cold-blooded and heartless person, but in fact, he is more loyal and righteous than anyone else. It's just that on weekdays, this loyalty is deeply buried by him."
"That's not true. The little emperor is too loyal. Otherwise, he wouldn't be bound by so many shackles and wouldn't live such a tiring life."
The little guy shook his head and continued: "For example, if it was Lord Frog who was responsible for the death of your uncle Di Tian, he would not have felt the slightest bit of guilt, because it has nothing to do with me. If anyone should be blamed, it could only be the Lord of Shura Palace. But Wu Tian took all the responsibility on himself. I really don't know whether to say that he is loyal and righteous, or that he is stupid."
During the conversation, the group unknowingly arrived at Ganghuo Peak.
The fight for the essence of Ganghuo caused Ganghuo Peak to collapse, and now only a small mountain about a hundred feet high remains here. The mountain is no longer red, and the scorching temperature no longer exists. There are many colorful flowers and lush shrubs growing here.
"Alas! Time flies, and everything has changed." After some inspection, Wutan did not find anything unusual on Ganghuo Peak. He then sighed and continued on his journey.
Not long after, Wutan came to a pit. This was the place where he and Chu Yiyan had their first and only perfect love. However, originally this was a pool with a waterfall above and a long stream below. Now, all these no longer existed, buried in the long river of history.
Wutan sat here alone for a whole day. Finally, with a sigh, he called the little ones and set off again.
He remained silent along the way, looking at the unrecognizable Bibolin, thinking a lot, but the uneasiness and worry in his heart could not be wiped away.
"I have to face what I have to face. It is not my nature to escape."
On this day, Wutan finally arrived at Beast King Mountain. Standing on the top of the mountain, looking down at the vast land, the uneasiness and hesitation in his eyes gradually dissipated, replaced by determination.
With a wave of his hand, the Xuantian ice coffin appeared and floated in front of him. Looking at the icy jade-like beauty inside, a touch of tenderness finally emerged on Wujitia's face, which was rarely seen on normal days.
Afterwards, he walked forward and slowly opened the coffin lid. His movements were extremely gentle and light, as if he was afraid of waking up the beautiful woman in the coffin. At this moment, his dark pupils were filled with an indelible sadness and longing.
"I have finally waited for this moment. You should have been waiting for it too. Don't worry, after you are resurrected, I will definitely make it up to you and make you the happiest woman in the world..."
Wutan murmured and reached out to touch the jade-white face. An extremely cold current suddenly surged into his heart like a tide, but he did not feel cold at all. On the contrary, he felt very warm and at ease.
After seeing this, Wutan seemed to be possessed and stayed silent for the whole day.
The little guy couldn't bear to watch it anymore, and shouted, "Little Emperor, you have worked so hard for so long and paid so much, all for this day, what are you still hesitating about!"
"boom!"
As soon as these words came out, it was like a bolt of thunder, striking Wu Tian's sea of consciousness. His body trembled and he suddenly became clear-headed.
"Yes, I should believe in the Tianyin Fruit and believe in her, instead of hesitating." Wutan's eyes suddenly burst into bright light, like two scorching suns.
"Xiao Wuhao, give me the Tianyin fruit."
As soon as he finished speaking, a emerald green fruit appeared out of thin air, floating in front of him. Xiao Wuhao was honest and sincere. The Tianyin Fruit did not melt and was still exactly the same as when he got it two months ago.
A rich aroma wafts in the air, permeating the heart. Moreover, the flowers, plants and trees around are sprouting and blooming rapidly as if they were visible to the naked eye, and they are putting out new branches. Even the long-dead trees are quickly recovering and growing tender green leaves.
One can imagine how enormous the vitality contained in the Tianyin Fruit is!
Wutan was also overjoyed. The Tianyin Fruit could actually revive dead trees and restore their vitality. It was just the vitality that permeated that created such an amazing scene. He believed that after Chu Yiyan took the whole Tianyin Fruit, she would be able to regain her vitality and smile.
Bending down and gently parting Chu Yiyan's lips, Wutan was about to put the Tianyin Fruit in, and at this moment, a loud shout suddenly rang out.
"Wutian, you are so bold that you actually stole the dragon pendant from my Wanbao Pavilion!"
As the roar sounded, the void suddenly shook and twisted. A golden light flashed, and a door opened. The next moment, a burly man walked out of it, with a strong murderous intent on his rough face!
