In the plum garden in Baixue City, Li Xiuyuan and Sima Jingyun were explaining in detail where I came from and where I was going.
Shangguan Wushuang from Tianxiang Academy took Youruo with him, and Dongfang Ruyu all the way to the Xinghua Valley at the foot of Mount Xumi in the clouds and fog.
Youruo didn't know Dongfang Ruyu, but when she saw her sister-in-law holding a twelve-year-old girl and crying like she was dying, she understood something in an instant.
Think about it, wasn’t it the same for the master back then?
Only the face of the woman who transformed into an old woman and dressed in goose-yellow clothes showed neither sadness nor joy. She had seen so many joys and sorrows in the world that she had long been numb.
She came here with Dongfang Ruyu, firstly to fulfill her precious disciple's wish, and secondly to abide by the agreement with Li Xiuyuan.
When Shangguan Wushuang refused to leave with Dongfang Ruyu, Dongfang Ruyu begged the master to give the two senior sisters a chance.
Because she knew that after this farewell, she would never see her again.
Shangguan Wushuang came to Jiangjun Mountain again and told Dongfang Ruyu in detail what happened when he and Youruo encountered bandits here.
Not to mention Dongfang Ruyu, even the old woman frowned slightly.
She also didn't expect that a monk who had cultivated to such a high level would come here to dominate the mountain and become the king for the elixir to break through the realm, becoming the leader of the bandits who blocked the road and robbed them.
On this day, the calamity thunder on Jiangjun Mountain rang for two full hours.
For a time, the sky was dark, the sun and the moon were dim, and all the monsters for hundreds of miles nearby were hiding in caves and shivering, not to mention the small beasts and birds that were foraging in the mountains.
Lasting from Shen Shi to Xu Shi, when two colorful divine lights fell, Shangguan Wushuang hugged Youruo and started crying again.
Only then did Dongfang Ruyu believe that her master was much more powerful than Li Xiuyuan in the snowy mountains.
Although she couldn't see clearly the state of Shangguan Wushuang and Youruo after the tribulation.
The old woman looked at Dongfang Ruyu and sighed, comforting: "I'm just holding it back for you. I'll wait until I leave this world before breaking through. Don't envy them."
Dongfang Ruyu smiled lightly and asked, "Does the master know what my brother's current cultivation level is?"
The old woman shook her head when she heard this, looked at Yue'er who had just climbed halfway up the mountain and smiled: "He is a monster, and I don't understand it yet."
After crying, Youruo, who changed into a skirt, walked over while wiping her tears.
Follow up with Guan Wushuang and explain: "Master has a powerful master. I heard from Master's mother that he is a mysterious old Taoist priest."
The old woman was stunned when she heard this, and after a while she murmured to herself: "So, he is actually the old guy's disciple?"
You Ruo was stunned and asked, "Senior, do you know my master?"
The old woman shook her head, sighed and said, "I don't dare to recognize you."
After listening to the old woman's words, even Shangguan Wushuang's heart skipped a beat. Even the old man in front of him who covered the sky with one hand did not dare to speak lightly of Li Xiuyuan's master.
It seems that the reason for this is not something she can figure out.
Youruo wiped away her tears, took Shangguan Wushuang's hand and said blankly: "Senior sister, this is great. When you return to the academy, will my brother be angry again?"
Even Youruo never expected that the senior sister's sister would come and bring an old woman with her, and she would be able to break through the tribulation again in one day.
She didn't even know how to explain this to her grandfather when she returned home.
The old woman looked at Youruo's appearance and couldn't help but sigh: "Little girl, why don't you leave with us? By then, you and Yu'er will also have a companion."
Youruo was stunned for a moment, and this time she was stunned.
If he had rejected Dongfang Ruyu's invitation before breaking through the tribulation, now the old woman who looked like a fairy was in front of her, and she was immediately confused.
For her, this can be said to be a rare thing in her life.
Shangguan Wushuang thought for a moment, took Youruo's hand and said, "Sister, you can stay with my junior sister. If I hadn't married your brother, I would have chosen to leave."
In any case, Shangguan Wushuang thought that after all, she was married, and she could not shamelessly ask the old man in front of her to take Wen Jian away with her.
Dongfang Ruyu thought for a moment and said, "Sister, please come with me. Maybe one day, brother will come to me and you can see him again."
Youruo nodded: "Let me think about it again."
...
The spring breeze blows, blowing to the Apricot Blossom Valley.
Li Mingzhu, who got up early, looked at the green apricots on the tree in a daze, thinking that in a few days these apricots would mature, and she didn't know when her daughter would come.
Dongfang Haotian was sitting in the living room reading a book, but his eyebrows jumped for no reason.
At that moment, I couldn't help but put down the book in my hand, came to the yard, looked at Li Mingzhu and said, "I'm very panicked. Did something happen to Yu'er?"
Li Mingzhu was startled when he heard this, shook his head and said, "Can't? Didn't it mean that our daughter is already a phoenix like Mu Mu?"
Dongfang Haotian sighed and said, "I'll go ahead and ask the master and sir for advice to see what this means."
"Okay, I'll go with you. I haven't seen Zhiqiu and the others in a few days."
Li Mingzhu said that she was going out with Dongfang Haotian. The moment she opened the courtyard door, she was stunned.
Looking at the girl who was only twelve years old in front of me, there were clearly two lines of tears on her face...
After thinking for a while, he glanced at Shangguan Wushuang behind him, and then asked: "Are you...are you my Yu'er?"
"Mother!" Dongfang Ruyu threw herself into Li Mingzhu's arms and cried out.
Decades of longing are like an endless torrent that will burst once it overflows.
Dongfang Haotian looked at Shangguan Wushuang with a smile on his face, and then he came back to his senses, came over and hugged his mother and started crying: "My child!"
From Taoyuan to Xinghua Valley, the couple almost went blind with anticipation, and finally waited for this day.
Shangguan Wushuang reunited his junior sister with her parents, but brought the old woman and Youruo to Ye Zhiqiu's terrace.
After the three of them sat down, she told Ye Zhiqiu her purpose of coming and the fact that Dongfang Ruyu was going to leave with Youruo.
While Ye Zhiqiu and Li Hongxiu were stunned, Shangguan Wushuang sighed quietly.
He took Ye Zhiqiu's hand and said, "Master, if it weren't for the fact that this disciple is already married, I would also like to leave this world with my junior sister."
Li Hongxiu was startled, and hurriedly went into the room to call out her man, and then talked to her husband in detail about what Shangguan Wushuang had said.
Then he looked at him and asked: "Should we leave with my sister? Wushuang came here last year, and I can still understand her cultivation, but now..."
The gentleman silently looked at Shangguan Wushuang and Youruo not far away, sighed softly and said: "Yes, they have both broken through that realm."
"How is it possible? Is it possible?" Li Hongxiu was startled, thinking that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?
However, the husband patted her hand and comforted her softly: "I want to stay here with Ye'er's parents and wait for him to come back. If you can't live without your sister, then take our child with you... "
Even though he was reluctant to give up, he knew that he was facing a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
He can stay here and wait for his disciple, but he cannot prevent his woman and his children from pursuing a higher world and a farther dream.
After listening to this, Li Hongxiu's mind was filled with thoughts.
She knew that if her man didn't leave, she was afraid that neither Tang Qiuyu nor Song Tianyu would leave, and if this happened, the family would be separated from each other in the future.
After listening to Shangguan Wushuang's words, Ye Zhiqiu looked at the old woman in front of him and was also confused.
What would happen if he and the others left and his son couldn't see his mother when he came back?
So she called out her husband and let her man make the decision.
After a while, Nangong Ruyu's grandfather Nangong Xuanyuan also came to the terrace with his wife.
Looking in the eyes of the old woman, I realized that this place was originally the family of the young man on the top of the snow-capped mountains who couldn't bear to leave. No wonder that guy refused to leave with me.
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
He said to Nangong Xuanyuan: "The way of heaven here is limited. I am afraid that you two will not be able to break through the limitations of the way of heaven. Why don't you follow me."
She made a small calculation in her mind. Even if she can't take away all your family members, she only needs to take away some of them. One day, you have to come to see me obediently.
She didn't believe that the boy would not bow to her.
This day was the most tangled day in Xinghua Valley. Even Nangong Ruyu didn't know what to do for a while, because her mother seemed to have encountered a bottleneck in her cultivation.
Until Shen Shi, the whole family held a meeting. Under the chairmanship of the husband, after soliciting everyone's opinions, a conclusion was reached.
Li Xiaoxue took Shangguan Qiuming with her children, Li Hongxiu took her children, and Nangong Ruyu was with her mother, grandpa and grandma.
Along with Dongfang Ruyu's family of three, there are also Shangguan Feihu, Lin Yueru, Youruo and others.
After leaving with the old lady, Nangong Ruyu might be able to come back here in the future because of her relationship with the old Taoist priest.
This is the best outcome in the husband's opinion, because he sees hope in Shangguan Wushuang and Youruo. He cannot drag all his family members here to wait for Li Xiuyuan.
The old woman was also very satisfied with this decision, thinking that she finally had the upper hand in the battle with the blind man.
She also looked forward to seeing Li Xiuyuan again one day and fighting with him again.
Let's see if the blind young man can overturn the world and find his family in the heavens.
The old woman didn't hesitate and left a jar of spiritual wine for her husband and told him how to use it.
While everyone was reluctant to leave, under the silent gaze of Ye Zhiqiu, Tang Qiuyu and others, a golden light rolled up and took away everyone who was leaving.
Song Tianyu took Tang Qiuyu's hand and comforted her: "Sister, since we have decided to stay, we should no longer envy their opportunities."
Ye Zhiqiu burst into tears, and at this moment, his daughter and grandson also left his side.
She could only hope that her son would return soon. Fortunately, Mu Mu got the news and came to persuade her: "Isn't there still a brother? Maybe the senior is secretly watching our jokes."
"Yes, I've been reading your jokes."
A gust of breeze blew onto the terrace, and until the golden light in the sky disappeared, the old Taoist priest sat in front of his husband.
This made Mu Mu scream in surprise: "Senior didn't even say a word when he came. Are you going to scare Mu Mu to death? What if Mu Mu couldn't help but leave with him?"
The old Taoist priest shook his beard, took her little hand and sat down next to him: "Just leave, you want to scare me too?"
Ye Zhiqiu saw the old man arriving in front of him, wiped away his tears, and asked softly: "Senior, what is all this about?"
The old Taoist priest sighed and said with a wry smile: "She is not the old woman you think of... She has fallen in love with that girl Dongfang Ruyu, who happened to be with my disciple... .”
After explaining for a while, the husband and others finally understood why the old man didn't stop him.
Because Li Xiuyuan did not stop Dongfang Ruyu, he naturally would not stop his husband, junior wife, father, mother, sister and others from making their own choices.
The old Taoist priest spread his hands and said with a wry smile: "He said, let you make your own choice, and we, master and disciple, will not interfere."
