Perfect: I am Shi An from Shicun, and I am Huang’s brother!

Chapter 211 Willow Goddess's Questions
After putting away the Qiankun bag, Shi Hao looked at Shi An again and asked, "Brother, what exactly happened to you in the Void God Realm? Why didn't you come back for two whole months?"

His face showed a mixture of curiosity and concern, his gaze fixed on Shi An.

Seeing how concerned Shi Hao was, Shi An could only smile helplessly, then patted him on the shoulder and said, "This is a long story, and it's hard to say exactly what happened. It would be better if you went to see it for yourself when you have the chance in the future."

After saying that, Shi An stopped talking, but secretly transmitted his voice, saying, "Although I can't tell you everything, there is something in the Qiankun bag I just gave you. You can take a good look at it. You might be pleasantly surprised!"

Meanwhile, Yunxi, unaware that Shi An was communicating telepathically with Shi Hao, followed up on Shi An's words and said, "Little Hao, you have just rebuilt the Heaven-Mending Pavilion and have many things to do. You should prioritize this."

"I understand, sister-in-law."

Upon hearing this, Shi Hao nodded quietly, but his mind was already focused on the Qiankun bag that Shi An had just given him.

The bag was filled with a dazzling array of medicinal herbs, exuding an alluring fragrance, but Shi Hao's gaze was quickly drawn to one of the items that emanated a mysterious aura.

It was a bone book emitting a faint glow, covered with ancient and intricate runes, as if a phoenix were soaring within it.

"True Phoenix Technique?"

Looking at the bone book that emitted a faint glow, Shi Hao was moved, but he did not immediately take it out to examine it carefully. Instead, he returned his attention and smiled at Shi An, saying, "Brother, you have given me a great gift!"

"As long as you like it."

Seeing Shi Hao's reaction, Shi An immediately understood that he had seen what he had prepared for him. He smiled knowingly and said, "Also, I should go back now. I've been in the Void God Realm for two months, and it's time to go back to the village."

"That······"

Hearing that Shi An was about to leave, Shi Hao hesitated for a moment, then said gently, "Please give my regards to the clan chief and Uncle Lin Hu for me."

"Ok!"

Shi An nodded, and then left the Central Heavenly Palace with Yun Xi.

"Buzz!"

A spatial ripple spread out, and Shi An and Yun Xi appeared in Stone Village, which was countless miles away from the Stone Kingdom.

It must be said that after advancing to the Venerable level, especially after fighting against a powerful Immortal King of the same level, Shi An's control over his own strength has become increasingly profound.

In the past, if he wanted to return to Stone Village from Stone Kingdom, it would take at least one or two months, or even half a year, but now he can get there with just one step.

Of course, the most important thing is that what Shi An has mastered is the power of the laws of the Ancestral Witch of Space, Dijiang, rather than some other inferior spatial treasures and supernatural powers.

"Uncle Xiao An is back."

"And Aunt Yunxi too!"

As soon as Shi Cun and Shi An returned, they attracted the attention of a group of children. Soon after, the adults were also awakened by the children's commotion and gathered around.

"Xiao An, how's Da Zhuang doing in Shi Guo? Has he caused any trouble for the little one?"

"Yes, Xiao An, and my son, have he gotten into any trouble?"

···········
The adults were asking all sorts of questions about their children, seemingly worried that they might cause trouble for the little ones, but in reality, they just wanted to know if their children had been bullied.

"Uncle Feijiao, Uncle Shoushan, ... don't worry."

Seeing the expectant looks in his elders' eyes, Shi An smiled inwardly and then explained, "Da Zhuang and the others are doing very well in Shi Kingdom. Under Xiao Bu Dian's arrangement, they are all cultivating under the guidance of a king or noble, and they have made great progress."

"When they come back, they'll give you all a real shock."

"Haha, that's good, that's good!" Upon hearing this, Shi Feijiao burst into laughter, his wrinkles crinkling together: "Xiao An, thanks to you and Little One, the children of our Shi Village have such good fortune."

Shi Shoushan, standing to the side, nodded in agreement, his eyes filled with satisfaction: "Yes, back then, our Shi Village struggled to survive in this wilderness. Now that the children have such an opportunity, it's truly a blessing from our ancestors."

"That's right. If my son can amount to something, then my life won't have been in vain."

·······
As everyone was talking, village chief Shi Yunfeng, leaning on his cane, slowly walked over.

"Grandpa Chief!"

Upon seeing Shi Yunfeng approach, Shi An immediately stepped forward to help him up.

"Well, just come back."

Feeling the warmth emanating from his body, Shi Yunfeng's wrinkles deepened. He gently patted Shi An's hand and said slowly, "Let's go see the Willow God first, and then we can tell the village children about the outside world later."

"it is good."

Shi An naturally did not resist Shi Yunfeng's arrangement. He immediately released his hand and turned to walk to the willow tree at the entrance of the village.

"Willow Goddess, I..."

Facing Liu Shen, Shi An did not hold back as he had with Shi Hao, but told her all about his experiences in the Void God Realm, including the True Phoenix Treasure Technique.

"Shi An!"

After Shi An finished speaking, Liu Shen's voice rang out: "I've always had a question: how do you know so much?"

"this·······"

Upon hearing Liu Shen's words, Shi An's heart skipped a beat, but he quickly calmed down and looked at Liu Shen with deep eyes, saying, "This matter has a great cause and effect. I'm not sure if I can say it, or rather, if I do say it, the impact on you might be much greater than you imagine."

As he spoke, Shi An lowered his eyes slightly, a hint of solemnity flashing across his expression. Then he slowly raised his eyes, looking firmly at Liu Shen, and said softly but solemnly, "Liu Shen, there are some things that are difficult to say now because the time is not right."

"But I assure you, everything I have done is for Shicun, for this land, and I have no selfish motives whatsoever."

The willow tree's emerald green branches swayed gently in the breeze, as if pondering Shi An's words. After a moment, a gentle and mysterious power emanated from the willow tree, enveloping Shi An, as if probing or comforting him.

"Alright, since you say so, you must have your reasons."

"However, the cause and effect in this world are complex. You must be careful in your actions, lest you be devoured by the unknown cause and effect."

Willow Goddess's voice remained calm and melodious, warming Shi An's heart. He bowed respectfully and said, "This disciple will remember."

Afterwards, Shi An exchanged some insights on cultivation with Liu Shen. With her unparalleled wisdom and realm, Liu Shen answered many of Shi An's questions about cultivation, from which Shi An benefited greatly.

After leaving the Willow God, Shi An arrived at the village square. At this time, all the village children gathered around, their eyes full of curiosity and admiration.

"Uncle Xiao An, can you tell us about the Stone Kingdom? What kind of place is that?" a chubby-faced child asked first.

Shi An smiled and patted the child's head. After looking around at the other children, he said, "Shi Kingdom is a powerful ancient kingdom with all sorts of strange sights and powerful beings."

"However, it is also very dangerous there, as many people there engage in robbery."

The children listened with rapt attention, their eyes sparkling with excitement, and they eagerly begged Shi An to tell them more stories. Shi An patiently and vividly described the various aspects of the Stone Kingdom, eliciting gasps of amazement from the children.

After spending some time with the children, Shi An went to see the village elders and shared with them some information about Shi Kingdom and the outside world. The elders listened attentively, their faces full of satisfaction and pride.
