Perfect World: I Am Eternal

Chapter 594 Return to Hometown
In the valley, petals fluttered in the air, carrying a faint fragrance that drifted over the small hills, yet the desolation remained undeniable.

"I'm back, back to the land that gave me birth and nurtured me..."

Lin Fan spoke softly, filled with endless melancholy, afraid of disturbing the place.

Crystal-clear petals fall like fragments of time dancing in the air.

His gaze shifted, as if it were from millions of years ago, and his expression darkened, revealing a sense of sadness.

“Sister, I’ve come to see you.” Lin Fan stood in front of a stone tablet inscribed with blood, his eyes dimming.

"I can pluck stars from the sky and catch the moon, I can shatter the starry sky, but I can't protect you or let you live."

"You were so young... You didn't get to see all the wonders of the world before you grew up and died so young..." Lin Fan murmured to himself.

He swept across the heavens and the earth, breaking the curse of immortality. What does it matter if he is invincible in heaven and earth?

In the end, they lost too much, and couldn't even protect their loved ones.

At this moment, Lin Fan, filled with invincible glory and endless sorrow, watched as his friends and family turned into a pile of yellow earth, marking the very end of his life.

Not far away, Yuechan watched quietly without disturbing her, but she was also very depressed, heartbroken for this man.

A person who has won everything in the world and is invincible, yet the first half of his life is regrettable and lamentable.

Behind the glory lies sorrow, grief, and desolation; his loved ones have all passed away, and only he remains immortal.

What kind of loneliness is this? What kind of mentality is this?
"Ugh……"

Even the moon goddess sighs in the wind. Infected by this emotion, one has a kind of illusion: standing alone on a high peak, with a few earthen graves, the world is vast and boundless.

Having attained unparalleled enlightenment, I cannot withstand the passage of time; a lifetime of ultimate splendor cannot conceal the mottled tears and blood of the past.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a grave split open; it was the tomb with the bloodstained stone tablet. The soil parted in the middle and moved to both sides, revealing a stone coffin.

Yuechan was stunned. How did the big tomb crack open?
Without a doubt, it was Lin Fan who did it, because anyone other than him would dare to touch this place, which would be tantamount to crossing a dragon's reverse scale.

"boom!"

Sure enough, it was Lin Fan casting a spell. The ancient coffin was opened, array patterns flickered, and chaos filled the air, clearly indicating that there were restrictions in place.

If an ordinary cultivator were to come here and dare to disturb the large tomb or destroy the mausoleum, they would definitely be killed by the formation.

Undoubtedly, this was arranged by Lin Fan.

Yuechan was puzzled. Why was he opening the coffin? Was he going to move the grave? Or did he have some strange fetish...?

"This is……"

The next moment, she was shocked, because what was buried there was not a skeleton, but a bronze ring and a ghost mask.

Little did they know, the earthen graves here were actually cenotaphs; Lin Fan's relatives had been reduced to dust in the great battle, leaving no trace of their remains.

Years ago, when he returned to his hometown, he found these two items in good condition among a pile of rubble.

Furthermore, the bronze ring and the ghost mask were gifts from Lin Fan to his sister.

She hopes that one day she can become a remarkable woman like the Ruthless Great Emperor, with unparalleled beauty and talent that will shake the world!

In fact, Lin Fan was just thinking about it at the time, hoping that she would grow up safely, but things didn't go as planned.

"Haha... So that's how it is... Haha..." Just then, Lin Fan suddenly burst into laughter.

He looked at the two items in front of him with excitement and agitation, as if he were going crazy.

Yuechan was dumbfounded, her beautiful eyes flashing with confusion. Would her man be so heartbroken as to lose his mind over a loss?

"Are you alright?" she asked worriedly.

"I'm fine, and I'm very happy. One day, I will see my sister again!" Lin Fan replied, still smiling.

Upon hearing this, Yuechan's heart skipped a beat. How could a dead person come back to life?

"Oh no, Lin Fan is really sick! He's a true immortal, how am I supposed to cure him? By touching him with love?" she muttered.

However, just as she was pondering this, Lin Fan regained his composure and reburied the two items into the ancient coffin. The drastic change left Yuechan speechless and dumbfounded.

"Let's go, we should leave!" Lin Fan said, ignoring Yue Chan's bewildered look, and led her away.

Everyone has a youthful period, but life goes on. Holding onto unfulfilled desires will only deepen regrets, so it's better to leave them for now.

Because one day, the dead will return and meet him again in the mortal world.

Adjust your mindset.

At this moment, Lin Fan remained the confident and invincible Holy Emperor, his gaze unwavering, as if nothing could defeat him.

I am the only one who matters!

……

Butian Sect.

Two figures arrived; the man was imposing and peerless, the woman tall and graceful with fair skin and delicate features, both possessing extraordinary charm.

When they walked together, they were a perfect couple, flawless and without any faults.

Furthermore, when Lin Fan arrived at the Patching Heaven Sect, the entire sect was shaken, unlike in previous years, which made them both fearful and uneasy.

Now that Lin Fan has regained his true self, he is naturally different. Most importantly, unpleasant things have happened between them.

If we were to settle old scores, the Patching Heaven Sect would surely be destroyed.

In particular, some of the people involved were extremely worried, and their faces turned pale.

You must know that this is the first immortal of this era, who defied the heavens to continue the broken path and create new glories and miracles.

Not long ago, the four crippled immortals who had wreaked havoc on an entire era were brutally defeated by him, a sight witnessed by many people across the Three Thousand Provinces.

"Let bygones be bygones," Lin Fan said calmly. Two hundred thousand years have passed in the blink of an eye, and there's nothing he can't let go of.

Besides, after he became the supreme ruler, he had already sought revenge. Those who deserved to be killed had already been killed, and the past was like smoke.

Most importantly, he received the compensation due to the church, taking both the old and new saintesses in one fell swoop, which can be considered a form of revenge.

Upon hearing this, the higher-ups of the Patching Heaven Sect almost cheered, especially after seeing Yuechan, who seemed to have a sudden realization and became even more relaxed.

Even so, everyone was still incredibly nervous, keeping their heads down, not daring to look at Lin Fan's immortal body, let alone meet his gaze.

“Uncle, don’t be so tense. Relax. He’s not a man-eating beast,” Yuechan said.

Qingyang's expression changed, and he felt ashamed. He had heard since he was a child that this person was more terrifying than a ferocious beast!

The thought of how we used to be like brothers a few years ago sends a chill down my spine.

Then, he glared at his grandniece and said, "Qingyi, how come you're just like Yuechan, so outspoken? Do you want to get your uncle killed?"

Yuechan: "..."

Then, Qingyang added, "You must never be like her. She's been spoiled since she was little and has always acted lawlessly because she has someone backing her up."

“Look at her, so many years have passed and she still doesn’t think about going home. She’s really gotten used to being out in the wild. We’ve always doted on her since she was little.”

At this moment, Yuechan gritted her teeth, listening to her uncle's incessant nagging, and almost turned into a female thug, throwing a punch at him.

I'm so angry! She really wants to betray her own family for the greater good!
Because she didn't believe that her closest people couldn't tell her apart from Qingyi, since the two had different personalities.

One is rather quiet, but actually quite lively inside; the other is rather aloof, but actually quite cunning inside.

You can tell from her clothing style that Yuechan appears to be dressed in pure white, spotless clothes, but she prefers to wear black underwear.

On ordinary days, she acts as pure and holy as a fairy, all to maintain her outward image, but in reality, she is very uninhibited.

Lin Fan deeply understood this, unlike Qingyi, who was always shy and bashful when the three of them played together.

"Where's Qingyao?" Lin Fan asked, glancing around.
