Lingyuan Immortal

Chapter 47 A Happy Family Event

Time flies, and two years have passed in the blink of an eye.

It was early autumn, and the wild geese from the north, fed by an unknown master, were flying in a line across the sea, slowly across the sky, and towards their warm nests.

The lush branches and leaves on the cliffs that were lush in summer began to wither, and the endless sea looked a little colder than before.

At this time, Chen Mu put away a sound transmission jade slip, raised his eyes to look at the trajectory of the flying geese, and a smile appeared on his face, which was rarely seen in the past two years.

"It's autumn again..."

In the past two years, he has been concentrating on cultivation and rarely went down the cliff, except for two missions from his master.

He only spared one day every three months to attend the Tianhu Summit and join forces with Han Jing to compete for the elixir. Then he immediately went to the Danhen Land to visit the alchemist Wei Xingyou and refine the Yiyang Pill...

Even the talismans he drew in his spare time were entrusted to some menial disciples to exchange for spirit stones at the market.

Also, because he did not come down the cliff for a long time and did not interact with his fellow disciples, he was gradually talked about as an ascetic.

For someone like them who was at the Qi Condensation stage, spending a long period of seclusion was indeed not understood. Moreover, they were not independent cultivators, but disciples of a large sect. In some aspects, sometimes, even if their cultivation was strong, it was not as good as building good relationships with their fellow disciples...

When he heard some of the discussions from Han Jing, he made a few self-deprecating remarks to Han Jing and then laughed it off.

It's just a matter of different philosophies. He advocates for self-strengthening, so that he can be free and at ease, and protect his relatives and friends...

Fortunately, the two years of hard training were not in vain. With the help of Yiyang Pill, he had reached the peak of the seventh level of Qi Condensation half a month ago, and only a few days were left before he could break through to the eighth level of Qi Condensation.

Back then, a single Yiyang Pill had allowed him to break through from the fourth to the fifth level of Qi Condensation. This was because it was his first time taking it, and it was a top-grade product refined by a second-level alchemist, so it was extremely potent. Furthermore, the water lotus in his body also aided in the transition...

Chen Mu regained his composure and stood up.

As his cultivation level continued to improve, he increasingly felt the magical effects of the water lotus in his body. However, due to his limited knowledge, he was unable to identify the origin of the water lotus for a long time...

"I can only ask Jianjun for more information later."

Chen Mu walked towards the edge of the cliff and looked into the distance. The vast sky and water were connected, reflecting his aura, making it even more profound.

"Ten years..."

After pondering for a long time, Chen Mu turned around and walked slowly along the path down the cliff.

There must be something important that made him come down the mountain at this critical moment when he was about to break through...

Chen Mu did not stop all the way until he arrived at the Fuzhao Hall at the mountain gate. Since he had finally come to the mountain, he might as well complete the mission assigned by his master. Moreover, there was a mission that quite suited his taste.

He took down a wooden slip, which contained only a few words, the most prominent of which were: "Selecting Immortal Seedlings..."

Chen Mu pursed his lips and smiled. In ten years, he had transformed from an ordinary boy into the "immortal" that everyone envied at that time.

“The circumstances of the world are truly marvelous.”

He took the imperial edict for selecting immortal seedlings, walked out of the mountain gate, and flew towards Qinghe Prefecture, driving the wind-patterned cloud-binding banner.

……

A day later, Chen Mu, dressed in white, quietly appeared in front of the Chen residence in Qingxi Town.

The side doors were all open, and servants and maids were coming in and out, looking very busy. A man who looked very experienced was standing nearby, shouting happily.

"Xiao Fengzi, how did you get back so quickly? Did you buy everything I told you to buy?" "Oh, be careful! These are the fine porcelains that the master brought back from Heyun Prefecture on business. They are very precious, so you have to be careful!"

"Seventh Brother! You're slacking off again. If you delay the Second Young Master's business, I'll punish you! I won't let you off!"

The man is Uncle Li...

Chen Mu looked at this scene, smiled in his heart, dispersed his magic power and walked forward.

"Xiao Cui'er, why are you like this..." The man who was still giving orders to the young maid suddenly stopped talking and looked at Chen Mu who was walking slowly towards him.

As soon as he stopped talking, the many servants and maids who were used to the man's nagging subconsciously raised their eyes and looked in the direction he was looking.

In an instant, the servants who recognized Chen Mu were excited, probably because their eldest master was an "immortal", while some who had not been there for long were confused and were about to turn around to ask each other when a voice suddenly rang out.

"Young Master! Young Master is back!" The man was even more delighted and hurried down the steps to greet Chen Mu.

Chen Mu also smiled and nodded, saying, "Uncle Li."

"I'm not worthy of you... Young Master, please come into the mansion quickly. If the Second Young Master knew you were back, he would be so happy that he wouldn't know what to do."

"Then I'll go in first. Thank you all for your hard work." Chen Mu chuckled and then entered the mansion.

The servants and maids all nodded excitedly. After watching Chen Mu go in, some anxious servants asked softly, "Is this the eldest young master? Didn't he say he was cultivating in the immortal sect? Why doesn't he look like an immortal to me? He looks more like a top scholar..."

Without waiting for the servants to reply, the smiling man glared at the servant who had asked, shouting, "What do you think? What do you think an immortal looks like? You're talking nonsense! How can we mortals see the aura of the young master? If you dare to say such nonsense again, I'll be in trouble!"

Chen Mu naturally heard the noise outside the door, but he ignored it, shook his head, smiled, and continued walking forward.

After turning a corridor, a young man in black clothes, eight feet tall and with a strong build, came running towards him. It was Chen Bai who heard the noise and came running quickly.

"Big brother!"

Chen Mu also laughed loudly, stopped Chen Bai's bear-like body, and said jokingly: "Alright, alright, you are already grown up!"

Chen Bai touched his head and chuckled, saying, "I knew Big Brother would come!"

"Of course. After receiving the news from Xiao Kui, I decided to come back... In a blink of an eye, I will be attending my brother's wedding." Chen Mu sighed a few times and asked again.

"But what about the second daughter of the Zheng family that mother told you about last time?"

Chen Bai nodded, and his face, no longer as round and tough as before, suddenly became soft in the sunlight, but it was a shy emotion that painted a warm color on his skin.

"I've been friends with someone for years... I can't let them down, right?"

Chen Mu smiled with relief upon hearing this and said, "It's great that you think this way. It shows that you already understand the word responsibility."

"That's for sure. I'm already this old... Big brother and I should go in quickly. Mother must be getting anxious waiting." Chen Bai laughed triumphantly, then pulled Chen Mu's sleeve and walked towards the inner courtyard, just like when they were children...

Chen Mu didn't break free, but smiled as he walked away, saying, "I haven't seen you for a few years, and you've become even stronger."

Chen Bai smiled continuously and said loudly, "Ever since my eldest brother left, I have never stopped practicing martial arts. Add to that the pills he left behind... Now I have defeated Qingxi and no one can match him. Moreover, my father helped me open a martial arts school in town two years ago. I love it very much..."
