Hong Juan and Nangong Yun stayed in Jingxin Water Pavilion for a month.
During this period, they had repeatedly persuaded their father Nangong Shuo to awaken his soul and become a cultivator, which would at least fulfill his longing.
However, Nangong Shuo still refused in the end. Maybe he really wanted to keep his "promise" to Lin Xuan!
Seeing that her mother was finally able to live the life she had dreamed of, Hongjuan felt happy for her mother from the bottom of her heart.
However, the two of them had been coming to Jingxin Water Pavilion for a while, and their mother would always ask her and Xiaoyun how far they had progressed when they were alone with Hongjuan.
And every time Hongjuan was asked this question by her mother, she always talked about him, or simply made nonsense of her words.
Lin Xuan saw that Hong Juan was unwilling to give an honest explanation, so she and Nangong Shuo went to "force" Nangong Yun.
Who knew that every time the two of them vowed never to be soft-hearted at the beginning, however, after chatting with Nangong Yun for a few words, they were fooled by his sweet words.
In the end, the two of them could even happily praise Nangong Yun, saying that this child is really sensible!
However, this month has passed and they still haven't asked anything...
However, Hong Juan secretly came to Nangong Yun and shouted that she wanted to go back to Fengming Mountain. Seeing the appearance of her senior sister, Nangong Yun naturally understood that she would definitely not be able to withstand the forced confession from her two elders.
Therefore, Nangong Yun went with his senior sister to say goodbye to his two elders.
Although Lin Xuan and Nangong Shuo were still a little reluctant to let them leave so soon, they were relieved now that they knew they were all fine.
Children are always restless, and besides, they want to return to Fengming Mountain to practice, so naturally they cannot delay their practice.
Before leaving, Hongjuan left some Qingyuan Pills for her father and mother in case of emergency.
Nangong Yun, on the other hand, privately set up a small array in the Jingxin Water Pavilion during this month. This array was not an offensive or defensive array, but just a basic self-operating spirit gathering array.
This array can make the Jingxin Water Pavilion full of aura, and it will have a very good effect on ordinary people's self-cultivation.
The reason why he did this was so that the two elders could live happily and peacefully here.
After leaving Jingxin Water Pavilion, Hongjuan accompanied Nangong Yun to an abandoned village site in Nanjun.
There has been no human habitation here for many years, with ruins and overgrown grass everywhere.
It's just that the stone tablet at the entrance of the village is still standing here unmoved after fifteen years of wind and rain.
Nangong Yun pulled off the vines climbing on the stone tablet and clearly saw the three large characters engraved on the stone tablet.
Gaojiabao!
This is Nangong Yun’s hometown.
He didn't know which family he was born into, but he was aimlessly looking for something in this deserted village.
Hongjuan followed Nangong Yun quietly. She knew that Xiaoyun was very disappointed now.
Because he didn't even know who he was. He wanted to worship his parents, but he didn't know who to worship.
Therefore, he can only treat everyone who lived here before as his relatives...
Nangong Yun finally returned to the stone monument at the entrance of the village.
He built an earthen grave behind the stone monument with his own hands and buried a lock of his hair in it.
Hong Juan felt very uncomfortable when she saw this.
She knew that Xiaoyun commemorated his parents and all his relatives in this way, because he had no other choice.
The dead have passed away, but the living will live forever.
Nangong Yun sat under the stone tablet for a long time.
Hongjuan sat quietly next to him.
"Senior sister, I feel uncomfortable."
"I know."
Hong Juan stretched out her arms and gently hugged Nangong Yun into her arms.
No matter how strong your heart is, there will always be times when you are weak.
Hongjuan knew that what Xiaoyun needed now was a kind of sustenance, a thought deep in his heart.
However, she couldn't give these to Xiaoyun. All she could do was to accompany him quietly...
The sky gradually became dark.
Nangong Yun stood up slowly, raised his head and stared at the deep and dark sky. His bright eyes no longer looked sad, but full of hope.
He suddenly smiled faintly and said to Hong Juan beside him.
"Senior sister, when I was a child, I always felt that there was a pair of eyes in the sky staring at me. Now that I think about it, those eyes might be my relatives!"
Seeing that Xiaoyun finally came out of her sadness, Hongjuan couldn't help but smile.
"Of course!"
But at this time, I heard Nangong Yun say firmly.
"Since they are all in heaven, then I will go to heaven and have a look!"
After hearing what he said, Hongjuan suddenly stood up with some worry, stretched out her hands to turn Nangong Yun around, and stared into his eyes with a pair of beautiful eyes and said.
"You said you would listen to me and live a good life, but you are not allowed to break your promise, you know that!"
Nangong Yun saw Hong Juan so nervous and smiled slightly.
"Senior sister, you misunderstood. I mean that one day I will cultivate to the holy realm. In that case, even with the boundless sky above our heads, I can come and go freely!"
"Oh, what is the holy realm? Why have I never heard of it?"
Seeing Hong Juan's confused look, Nangong Yun sighed softly.
"Sister, I have something to hide from you."
"whats the matter?"
"It's like this. I was injured and almost lost my life when I was a child. Later, my master took me to a forbidden place on the mountain to heal my injuries. From then on, Lord Fire has possessed me."
Nangong Yun truthfully confessed the secrets between him and Master Huo to Hong Juan, because Hong Juan would know these secrets sooner or later, so Nangong Yun did not intend to hide them from his senior sister anymore.
Then, Nangong Yun continued.
"Master Huo said that he is the ancient Zhuzhao Saint King, who controls all fires in the world and can burn everything. As for his realm cultivation, I don't know much about it. I just heard him say that he was in the holy realm when he was born. As for where he reached in his final cultivation, I don’t know.”
"Oh, that's it. No wonder I was attracted by the flaming aura on your body when I first met you when I was a child. It seems that the flaming sun fire I inherited is also part of this Zhuzhao Saint Lord!"
Hongjuan murmured after hearing Nangong Yun's story.
Because she has indeed been able to feel Nangong Yun's "specialness" since she was a child. At first, she didn't know what was weird about Xiao Yun. Later, the two of them were together for a long time, and she gradually became accustomed to it.
Unexpectedly, the misunderstanding she had always had turned out to be because of the Holy Lord Zhuzhao in Xiaoyun's body. Hongjuan couldn't help but smile sweetly.
"Then the blood jade soul you gave me when I was young was also Master Huo's handiwork?"
"It's the method Master Huo taught me, but it's also because of my feelings for my senior sister, because at that time you were beaten with blood by the man in black to save me, which scared me."
Nangong Yun explained with a smile when he saw his senior sister reaching out to pick out the blood jade soul that was worn close to her chest.
"Besides, I have been pricking my fingers for several years in order to dye this jade."
"Haha, of course I know what you are thinking, Xiaoyun."
Then I saw Hong Juan gently pulling Nangong Yun's palm, pretending to check it out.
But, after so many years, nothing can be seen.
Just listen to Nangong Yun continue to speak.
"Lord Huo also told me a strange thing."
"Oh? What happened?"
Hongjuan looked at Nangong Yun curiously.
"He said my soul was incomplete."
"The life soul is incomplete? How is that possible? If your life soul is incomplete, how can you cultivate to the current state?"
Hongjuan asked with an incredulous look on her face.
Because she also believed that it was impossible for a cultivator to practice with an incomplete life soul, which was completely inconsistent with the cultivation rules on the Yuanhun Continent.
However, Nangong Yun said with a smile.
"Many people can't believe this is true, but I have been learning about cultivation with Master Huo since I was five years old."
"This is really incredible. It's just that your life soul is incomplete. Will it affect your future cultivation?"
Seeing the look of concern on the senior sister's face after hearing this, Nangong Yun felt warm in her heart and continued.
"This does have a certain impact. For example, others cannot sense my cultivation realm through soul power detection. Also, it will be more difficult to advance to the realm. This is all I know at the moment.
But Master Huo said that there is no danger in this. Moreover, Master Huo has been guiding me from the side, so I think there should be no problem. "
Hongjuan felt a little relieved after hearing what Nangong Yun said, and then she asked again.
"Then is there any way to restore your soul?"
"Master Huo has no choice, but he said that I will be able to solve this problem sooner or later. As for how to solve it, he didn't say."
Nangong Yun said seriously, because these are secrets between him and Master Huo. Now in the world, apart from him, only the senior sister knows about Master Huo's existence.
However, after listening to Nangong Yun's words, Hong Juan thought for a while and suddenly said.
"Is there something important that Lord Huo hasn't told you?"
Nangong Yun didn't expect his senior sister to say that, but there were many things that Master Huo didn't tell him, and he didn't know if Master Huo had anything that was important to him.
However, Nangong Yun has been with Master Huo since he was a child, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he regards him as a father. Therefore, Nangong Yun will not care about what secrets Master Huo has not told him.
Then, he smiled and said to Hong Juan.
"I don't know either, but it doesn't matter. Master Huo has lived for hundreds of thousands of years, or even longer, so the secrets he knows must be beyond our imagination now. As long as my realm can break through to what he said, In that state, he will naturally tell me everything.”
After hearing what Nangong Yun said, Hongjuan also nodded and said.
"Okay, it's just that I haven't seen Master Huo yet. What does he look like? Can you let me take a look?"
After hearing her senior sister say that she wanted to meet Lord Huo, Nangong Yun said a little frustrated.
"After the last battle at Vientiane Mountain, Master Huo said that he needed to take a rest. He hasn't woken up yet. When he recovers, I'll let you see him again."
"Oh, in that case, fine!"
Hong Juan said with a smile.
But when she said this, she suddenly thought of something else, and then her cheeks gradually turned crimson, and her clear eyes suddenly filled with unconcealable joy.
Just listen to her shy words.
"Won't he see the things you did in my soul sea?"
When Nangong Yun saw his senior sister's sudden appearance and heard her say this again, he quickly raised his two palms and shook them continuously, and said in a positive tone.
"No, no... of course not, he was already asleep at that time!"
After hearing Nangong Yun's explanation, the heat in Hongjuan's cheeks faded slightly, but she still glanced at Nangong Yun seductively and said.
"Were you happy that time?"
"Um!"
