Chapter 879
The distance is hundreds of miles, and for other peak masters, it only takes a moment to reach it using flying magic weapons.
But if you walk, it will take at least half a month.
Du Yue and Du Hao, although they are not from a big family, they have not traveled such a long distance.
When they came, they were also riding horses.
However, neither of them had any dissatisfaction, and only regarded this as the first test that the master had given them.
However, Xiao Zhan seemed to have no intention of returning to the 10th Peak of the Xiuyuan Sect immediately, and instead headed towards Pingle County.
"Master, are you going to Pingle County?"
Xiao Zhan nodded, walked in front with his hands behind his back, and slowly said:
"I have stayed in Pingle County for three years, and I also know your Du family."
"Your father is a good man and has helped many poor people."
"Once you go to the Tenth Peak, you will not return to Pingle County in a short time."
"So, let's go back to your Du family first and spend a few more days with your parents."
Hearing this, Du Yue and Du Hao both had red eyes.
In fact, they are reluctant to leave home.
It was their parents who forced them to take the Xiuyuan Sect's assessment.
They were extremely happy to have the opportunity to go home and spend a few more days with their parents.
"Thank you, Master."
"Thank you, Master!"
Du Yue and Du Hao both spoke.
Xiao Zhan waved his hand:
"The Xiuyuan Sect has a rule that after joining the sect, you have the opportunity to go home to visit relatives every three years."
"But since you have joined the Tenth Peak, I allow you to arrange your own time. You can go home if you want."
Du Yue's face was filled with surprise:
"But Master, I heard that many sects do not allow disciples to go home to visit relatives at will, because family members will become a fetter on the path of cultivation."
Xiao Zhan chuckled:
"Then let me ask you, what is the purpose of practicing?"
Du Yue answered without thinking:
"It's for longevity."
Xiao Zhan nodded, "What is the purpose of immortality?"
Du Yue and Du Hao looked at each other, neither knowing how to answer.
As Xiao Zhan walked, he spoke slowly:
"Practice is for immortality and to become stronger."
"But if there is no one or thing to protect, everything will be meaningless."
"Those who consider their family members to be a constraint on the path of cultivation are because they are useless."
"You must not only become stronger yourself, but also make your family members stronger so that they can live longer and live better lives."
Du Yue and Du Hao looked at Xiao Zhan with admiration.
"Master, we have taken note of what you said!"
Xiao Zhan nodded and continued walking forward.
Half a day later, Pingle County appeared in front of us.
"Hahaha, go home!"
Du Yue and Du Hao looked extremely excited.
As soon as they entered the city, the two of them jumped up and down, pulling Xiao Zhan to look around.
Not long after, the three of them arrived outside the gate of Du Mansion.
The guard guarding the door was stunned when he saw Du Yue and Du Hao.
"Miss, Second Young Master, why are you back?"
"Could it be that... I failed to join the Xiuyuan Sect?"
Du Yue smiled and shook his head:
"We are already disciples of the Xiuyuan Sect."
Du Hao nodded and looked at Xiao Zhan excitedly:
"This is our master, the peak master of Xiuyuan Sect's tenth peak, a super strong man!"
When the guard heard this, he trembled with excitement and quickly knelt down in front of Xiao Zhan.
Xiao Zhan gently raised his hand, and the guard was helped up by an invisible energy.
Du Yue smiled and said:
"Li Wu, please hurry up and inform my parents. Let's wait in the garden first.
. "
"Okay!" Li Wu responded, turned around happily and ran into the house.
garden.
Xiao Zhan sat in the pavilion.
Du Yue stood behind Xiao Zhan and gently slapped Xiao Zhan on the back.
Du Hao stood nearby, staring at Xiao Zhan without blinking.
Not long after, I saw two middle-aged couples in Chinese clothes hurriedly approaching.
Both of them were carrying a plate filled with fresh fruits and fragrant pastries.
Behind the two people, several maids were smiling, and they were carrying wine and side dishes to go with the wine.
"Father, mother!"
Du Yue and Du Hao shouted quickly.
Du Zhong glared at the two of them, "I don't know how to be more cautious in front of your master!"
Du Yue stuck out her tongue, "Master is not that old-fashioned."
Du Zhong and his wife Wang Cuiyun smiled and bowed.
"I've met senior."
Xiao Zhan nodded.
"No need to be polite, just sit down."
Du Zhong put the plate in his hand on the stone table and then sat down with his wife.
After the maids behind him put down their things, they stood beside him with smiles on their faces.
The Du family is in the escort business.
Du Zhong is naturally a good conversationalist.
He smiled and said:
"Master Xiao, my Du Yue and Du Hao are talented and stupid. It is an honor for my Du family to be able to join you."
"Thank you for not looking down on them."
Xiao Zhan smiled and shook his head:
"If a saint's spiritual root can be regarded as a person with stupid talent, then there will be no genius in this world."
"Holy grade spiritual root!" Du Zhong and his wife were shocked.
Du Yue chuckled.
"Father, mother, you don't know yet."
"When we tested the spiritual roots, we found that they were only medium-grade spiritual roots."
"It was master who activated the holy spiritual roots for us, otherwise Du Hao and I would never know about this in our lives."
Hearing this, Du Zhong looked solemn, pulled his wife to stand up, and bowed down to Xiao Zhan:
"Senior, I, the Du family, have nothing to repay for your great kindness!"
Xiao Zhan waved his hand and said with a smile:
"It's just a trivial matter, nothing worth mentioning."
"You two don't have to be formal."
"I brought them back because I wanted them to spend more time with you."
With that said, Xiao Zhan handed the wine bottle in his hand to Du Hao:
"Go to the Caiyuan Tavern and drink a pot of "Drunk and Confused" for me. "
"Okay, Master!" Du Hao took the wine gourd and ran away quickly.
Xiao Zhan looked at Du Zhong and spoke slowly:
"On the Tenth Peak, there are only three of us, Du Yue and Du Hao."
"So there aren't that many rules."
"Whenever you want to see them, you can go to the Tenth Peak at any time."
"They can come back whenever they want."
Du Zhong's eyes turned red:
"Senior, we are mortals and we cannot be the bond between Xiaoyue and Xiaohao on their cultivation path."
Xiao Zhan slowly shook his head:
"You are wrong."
Before Xiao Zhan could speak, Du Yue repeated what Xiao Zhan had said to the two siblings on the road.
After listening, Du Zhong felt relieved and tears fell from the corners of his eyes.
And his wife couldn't help sobbing softly.
Who in this world wants to be separated from their children?
Unless, like Xiao Zhan, his family members have become the most powerful, and if they meet again in ten thousand years, their family members will still be there.
"By the way, let me remind you."
Xiao Zhan looked at Du Zhong:
"You cannot reveal that Du Yue and Du Hao have saint-level spiritual roots."
"The Xiuyuan Sect is the strongest force in the Haoyang Empire, but in the Haoyang Empire
Outside of the Yang Empire, there are stronger beings. "
"If this matter were to be known to anyone with intentions, I'm afraid it would lead to disaster."
Du Zhong nodded heavily:
"Senior, don't worry, we will keep this in mind!"
Xiao Zhan nodded again, picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and said with a smile:
"There is a "Caiyuan Tavern" in the city, and the "drunkenness" inside is the most humane. "
"You can learn to taste it."
After saying that, Xiao Zhan stood up.
Du Zhong quickly said to Du Yue:
"Xiao Yue, please quickly take Master Xiao to stay in the guest courtyard."
Du Yue nodded, held Xiao Zhan's hand and said:
"Master, can I take you to see my little Bian first?"
Xiao Zhan asked with a smile:
"What is Xiaobian?"
Du Zhong said angrily:
"Master Xiao, Xiao Bian is a golden turtle. Xiao Yue has been raising him for more than ten years."
Xiao Zhan nodded:
"The golden-armored turtle has a long life, so it would be nice to bring it back to the Tenth Peak to be a companion for Du Yue and Du Hao."
"Okay!" Du Yue cheered.
"Master, how do you know that I want to bring Xiao Bian back to the Tenth Peak?"
Xiao Zhan smiled and shook his head but said nothing.
How could Du Yue hide this little thought from his eyes?
