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

Chapter 412 First Visit to the Celestial City

"child!"

Just then, a gentle, joyful female voice suddenly came from not far away.

"Mother!"

Shi Hao turned his head and saw his mother, Qin Yining, walking through the air. Her skirt fluttered, her features were exquisite, and her brows were filled with undisguised excitement and concern.

Behind her were her father, Shi Ziling, her younger brother, Qin Hao, and even Huo Ling'er, Cao Yusheng, and others, each with a different expression—some shocked, some delighted, and some thoughtful.

After landing, Qin Yining quickly walked to Shi Hao, looked him up and down, and only felt relieved after confirming that he was unharmed.

"Xiao Xi!"

At the same time, Shi An also noticed Yun Xi walking towards him. He immediately took two steps forward to meet the figure in flowing purple robes with an ethereal and otherworldly air.

"Brother An!"

Yunxi called softly, her voice so gentle it seemed to melt away the lingering sunset glow on the mountaintop. She wore a long purple dress, the hem of which was lifted by the wind, revealing her slender ankles, her every step graceful and elegant.

That stunningly beautiful face still held a hint of lingering fear and a touch of relief.

After that battle, she was truly afraid that he would perish and never be seen again.

Thinking this, she quickened her pace and came to Shi An. At the same time, her slender fingers gently touched his cheek. Her fingertips were slightly cool, but they carried real warmth.

For a moment, a thin layer of mist welled up in Yunxi's eyes, and her voice trembled slightly: "You're alright... that's great."

Seeing this, Shi An immediately reached out and grasped her hand, his lips slightly parted, his eyes filled with heartache: "I'm sorry to have worried you."

However, Yunxi shook her head slightly, then leaned down gently and rested her head on his shoulder, whispering, "As long as you're here, that's enough."

The wind on the mountaintop suddenly became gentle.

The blood-red sunset reflected on the two of them, but instead of being grim, it was like a soft veil, completely enveloping the heart-stopping events that had just transpired.

Shi An looked down at Yun Xi, who was leaning on his shoulder. His fingertips twitched slightly, but in the end he simply put his arm around her shoulder without saying a word.

At this moment, he didn't need to say anything.

This scene caught everyone's attention. Qin Yining and Shi Ziling exchanged a smile, their eyes filled with satisfaction.

Huo Ling'er smiled slightly, but her gaze couldn't help but drift towards Shi Hao beside her.

Cao Yusheng rubbed his nose and muttered, "These young couple, they don't even know when to show their affection..."

But as soon as he finished speaking, he was met with a glare and a light kick from the Moon Jade Rabbit beside him: "You talk too much, can't you see that they are being affectionate!"

Qi Daolin and the old dean stood aside, watching these heartwarming scenes, and couldn't help but be moved.

After a long while, just as everyone was still touched by the tenderness between Shi An and Yun Xi, Shi An suddenly took Yun Xi's hand and came to the old dean: "Teacher, I want to take Yun Xi back to the Celestial Race to see her family."

Upon hearing this, the old dean was taken aback at first, then glanced at Yun Xi, and then a knowing look flashed in his eyes. He stroked his beard and said, "I will come along too, so that I can also meet my in-laws."

"this·····"

Upon seeing that the old dean wanted to accompany them, Shi An and Yun Xi couldn't help but look at each other. After a moment, Shi An smiled and replied, "Teacher, if you are willing to come, I would be more than happy to do so."

Yunxi also gave a graceful bow, her eyes filled with gratitude and a hint of shyness: "Thank you, Dean."

With the matter settled, Shi An didn't linger and bid farewell to everyone: "Brother, Uncle Ziling, Aunt Qin, and Sixth Brother, Seventh Brother, and Little Hao, we'll be leaving now." Similarly, Yun Xi also said goodbye to Huo Ling'er.

Soon, led by the old dean, the two soared into the sky and headed straight for the Celestial Race's territory—Tianzhou!
Time flies, and several days have passed in the blink of an eye. Shi An and his two companions finally arrived in Tianzhou.

After several days of traversing the void and crossing endless mountains and rivers, the outline of Tianzhou finally came into view.

Amidst billowing clouds and rosy hues, a sacred mountain hangs suspended in the air, and an ancient city sits atop the earth, permeated with a richer and purer essence of heaven and earth than anything found in the lower realms.

This is the core territory of the Celestial Race. Although it has been through an ancient war and its glory is no longer what it once was, its profound heritage remains and its magnificent scenery is still present.

The closer Yunxi got to the core ancestral land of the Celestial Race, the more complicated her feelings became.

Her purple robes fluttered, and her ethereal face showed unease.

In fact, this was her first real visit to the Celestial Race in the Upper Realm.

Last time, although Liu Shen sent her and Shi An directly to Tianzhou, due to a series of coincidences, they did not enter the territory of the Celestial Race. Instead, they only wandered around the outskirts before being parachuted into Huozhou, and then turned around and entered Tianxianzhou.

In the blink of an eye, several years have passed. Since parting ways in the mortal realm, I have no idea how my grandfather, great-aunt, father, and mother are doing.

Shi An noticed Yun Xi's nervousness and gently squeezed her hand, offering her silent comfort.

The old dean, however, had a deep gaze as he surveyed this mysterious and ancient land, secretly on guard.

As they ventured deeper, a majestic city came into view. Its walls soared into the clouds, exuding an ancient and awe-inspiring aura. Above the city gate were the three ancient characters “City of Heaven and Man”, written in a powerful and elegant style.

"This is the core city of the Celestial Race, Celestial City."

Yunxi said softly, her voice carrying a hint of barely concealed excitement and nervousness.

Just as they were about to approach the city gate, suddenly, beams of sharp light shot out from the city wall, transforming into powerful barriers that blocked the three of them.

Immediately afterwards, a group of Celestial Race powerhouses dressed in magnificent armor flew down from the city wall and surrounded them.

"Who goes there? How dare you trespass into the Celestial City!"

The leader, a powerful figure, shouted loudly, his eyes sharp as he warily sized up Shi An and his companions.

"I was unaware of your arrival, senior. I apologize for not welcoming you properly!"

However, before the three could respond, several figures suddenly appeared in Tianren City, including Qi Tuo and Qi Xia, who were the strongest in Tianren City at the moment.

Qi Tuo and his companions arrived through the air, their robes fluttering in the wind, surrounded by powerful divine light.

"Fellow Daoist, there's no need for that. I'm merely accompanying my disciple this time."

The old dean nodded slightly, said something softly, and then turned to look at Shi An and Yun Xi beside him.

"May I ask what brings you two young friends to my Celestial Race?"

Seeing this, Qi Tuo immediately turned his gaze to Shi An and Yun Xi, his eyes sweeping over the two of them. Although he could feel the faint blood connection from Yun Xi, his expression still carried a hint of scrutiny.

Yunxi stepped forward slightly, bowed gracefully, and said in a clear voice, "This junior is Yunxi, a descendant of the Celestial Race of the Lower Realm, whose ancestor was named Canghai."

"Yun Canghai?"

Upon hearing Yunxi's words, Qi Tuo was taken aback at first, and then began to search his mind.
