A Mortal's Journey to Immortality: Wang Yu Transmigrates into a Book, the Dao Ancestor of Rein

Chapter 157 Long Time No See, I Miss You So Much

"Miss Xin, it's been a long time."

Outside the array of the former residence, Han Li met Xin Ruyin and her servant.

"Senior Han."

The two women bowed to Han Li upon seeing him.

Behind the two women were Li Feiyu's descendants and the young girl from the Han family.

More than ten years have passed, and both of them have embarked on the path of immortality. However, even with the occasional help of pills provided by Xin Ruyin and Xiao Mei, their cultivation levels are only at the sixth or seventh level of Qi Refining.

The little girl from the Han family has now grown into a beautiful young woman.

"Greetings to the ancestor."

The two children, along with Xin Ruyin and her servant, respectfully bowed.

His eyes held both doubt and awe for the Core Formation expert.

"Miss Xin, you're too kind. Xiao Mei, you don't need to be so polite."

Han Li, appearing only in his Core Formation stage form, used his magic power to lift the two of them with a flick of his sleeve.

He glanced at the Li and Han families again with gentle eyes, then looked away.

“Miss Xin, your cultivation has reached the late stage of Foundation Establishment, and you are only one step away from the Pseudo-Core Realm. It seems that you have chosen a very reliable backer.”

Han Li's casual remark contained both a probe and a sigh.

Xin Ruyin then bowed deeply once more:
"Thank you for your guidance and introduction back then, and also for the many bottles of precious pills you gave me. If it weren't for your care, I would have turned into a handful of dust long ago."

In this regard.

All three people present were deeply moved.

If Han Li hadn't pointed out the more specific threat posed by the Dragon Roar Body, Xin Ruyin would have inevitably pursued the cultivation relentlessly, like a moth drawn to a flame, causing her meridians to shrink and damaging her very foundation. She wouldn't have survived past thirty; her dantian would have withered, her vital energy exhausted, and she would have died.

After that, without those precious snow lotuses from the icebergs that were over seven or eight hundred years old, Xin Ruyin would not have been able to reach the eleventh or twelfth level of Qi Refining before her body withered and died due to the loss of control over her true qi.

Subsequently, without those crucial Foundation Establishment Pills, Xin Ruyin would have been unable to establish her foundation.

Without establishing a foundation, one cannot cleanse the marrow and attain longevity, and naturally, one cannot live to this day.

Furthermore, without his guidance in leading Xin Ruyin to join the Hehuan Sect and establishing the connection through her senior sister Dong Xuan'er, she wouldn't have enjoyed the status of being a disciple of the Old Demon Yunlu, and therefore wouldn't have been able to obtain the Old Demon Yunlu's Yin-Yang Integration Technique to harmonize the Dragon Roar Qi. Without the Old Demon Yunlu occasionally using his Nascent Soul Yin Qi to help her regulate her Yin and Yang, and without the assistance of the Hehuan Sect's techniques to balance her Yin and Yang, this girl would at most be barely surviving in the early Foundation Establishment stage, and would absolutely never have reached her current late Foundation Establishment stage.

That's right.

Xin Ruyin not only lived a completely new life.

She also joined the Hehuan Sect and became a disciple of the old demon Yunlu, and is now a friend and fellow disciple of Dong Xuan'er.

Dong Xuan'er lacked a foundation in the Hehuan Sect, while Xin Ruyin, who was intelligent, perceptive, and adept at seizing opportunities, became a large group of supporters.

Yunlu seemed pleased that the two women could help and support each other.

As for Qi Yunxiao?
He died in an accident.

Of course, it could be a simple accident, or it could be intentional on someone's part.

Because Xin Ruyin had become Yunlu's disciple and had a good relationship with Dong Xuan'er, she was considered to have excellent family background and was rising in status. Naturally, many high-level cultivators of the Hehuan Sect would not let go of such a promising young woman.

Qi Yunxiao's "entanglement" seemed particularly irritating.

Therefore, Qi Yunxiao's accident could be genuine, or it could be the work of those high-level cultivators—eliminating their most formidable rival! It could even be for some other reason...

Han Li didn't ask about Qi Yunxiao's cause of death; it wasn't his concern.

He was just feeling sorry for Qi Yunxiao.

After all the effort, he had almost found a solution to the problem of the person he admired, and it seemed that the hard times were about to come to an end, but the price was his own life.

does it worth?
Xin Ruyin didn't mention Qi Yunxiao either.

Because she keeps a little mental record of some of the accounts, and remembers them very clearly.

She doesn't need to bring things out into the open.

Xiao Mei would never dare to gossip about her mistress.

"Miss Xin, I have come here to ask you for a favor. I wonder if you could do me a favor?"

Han Li said politely.

"Senior, I will do whatever it is within my power."

Xin Ruyin said solemnly.

She remembers every single favor she received—from those who saved her life, those who provided guidance, those who gave her a second chance at life—with remarkable clarity.

More than ten years ago, after returning to her cave, she learned from Xiao Mei that this senior was still alive and wanted to repay him.

I just don't know how to give back.

They were also distressed by losing track of their seniors' whereabouts once again.

Now, she can finally repay the favor. As long as the request doesn't violate her principles or exceed her capabilities, she will do her best. Even if it's beyond her capabilities, she will grit her teeth and find a way to fulfill it.

“Miss Xin, there’s no need for that. Do you still remember the jade slip that I left behind more than ten years ago?”

"Senior, do you mean a complete set of magical artifacts forming a grand formation?"

"Indeed. Have you made any progress with the young lady?"

"Senior, although Ruyin has some ideas, due to her cultivation level, she still only has a superficial understanding of the magic weapons of Core Formation cultivators. I'm afraid we'll have to wait until Ruyin forms her Core before we can give you a definite answer."

"Core Formation? I understand. With your current foundation and the high regard Ancestor Yunlu has for you, the chances of you forming your Core are quite high."

As Yunlu's disciple, and with the most outstanding talent in array formation, how could she not be valued?

Even if the Hehuan Sect were to throw resources at her, they would still manage to make Xin Ruyin a Core Formation cultivator. Before she breaks through to the Core Formation stage, she will likely have more than just Yun Lu protecting her.

"Miss, I have another matter to discuss..."

"Senior, please speak frankly."

"My matter is quite simple. I just need to trouble you to invite my senior sister Xuan'er. I want to see her and see how she's doing..."

When Han Li spoke of that longing, he unconsciously touched his nose.

"Just that?"

Xin Ruyin was stunned.

"Yes, thank you for your trouble, young lady."

"No trouble, no trouble."

How can this be called trouble?
Just a little effort.

Moreover, whenever she chatted with her senior sister Xuan'er about the past of Hongying Mountain, the senior sister would always seem absent-minded.

At first, she thought it was just that her senior sister missed the fairy Hong Fu.

Later, my senior sister met with the fairy Hong Fu who had successfully formed her nascent soul in private, but she declined the suggestion that the senior Hong Fu wanted to take her to the Luo Yun Sect.

Later, the two young masters of the Tian family, both at the Core Formation stage, extended invitations to Senior Sister Xuan'er to engage in dual cultivation. The Tian family offered a large amount of cultivation resources, and even a fortuitous opportunity that could help Senior Sister Dong achieve Nascent Soul formation, if she was willing. However, Senior Sister Xuan'er resolutely refused at the time.

After that, no matter which family in the Hehuan Sect came to propose marriage, the senior sister would impatiently refuse them.

By then, how could she not understand that her senior sister already had someone in her heart?

It's almost certainly this Senior Han.

This was Xuan'er's fourth junior brother.

“Then, I, Han, will wait here for the young lady for over a month.”

Han Li pointed to the cave dwelling outside the great formation of his former residence, which had been established for over a hundred years.

"Senior, Ruyin's bamboo house has spiritual tea and pastries. Why don't you wait there for a while?"

Xin Ruyin pointed to her family's old residence, a cave dwelling.

For over a hundred years, this person has never set foot in any of them.

This cautiousness is evident. This reverence for the unfamiliar is something she should learn from.

No wonder this person was able to cultivate to the Core Formation stage.

If Brother Qi had been half as cautious as this senior, he wouldn't have died so mysteriously.

...

Seven or eight days later.

Yue country.

The original location of the Hidden Moon Sect's mountain gate.

Xin Ruyin arrived.

She first went to the Taiyue Mountain branch.

However, she did not see Dong Xuan'er there. She heard that the patriarch had summoned Senior Sister Dong here.

After entering the mountain gate and learning more about the situation, it was discovered that Ancestor Yunlu had summoned Senior Sister Xuan'er back to his side to protect her from any accidents, after learning that the cultivation world had been in turmoil recently.

"Master really favors Senior Sister."

I wouldn't say I'm envious, but I have mixed feelings.

Because through both overt and covert investigations, some things pointed directly at her master, who had shown her great kindness.

Her heart was also in great torment because of this.

"Senior sister, are you there?"

She knocked on the door of her senior sister Xuan'er's cave dwelling and met this increasingly charming and beautiful senior sister.

"Ruyin, you've been summoned back by Master too?"

"No."

"and you…?"

Xin Ruyin didn't say much, but handed over a puppet, a level four giant tiger puppet.

Upon seeing the puppet figurine, Dong Xuan'er's beautiful eyes widened, and she rushed forward to snatch it for a closer look.

After a dozen or so breaths, the beauty's shoulders trembled slightly:
"It's the work of the Dong family in weapon crafting..."

"Could it be him?"

Dong Xuan'er bit her lip, a fleeting hint of grievance flashing across her face, before her eyes blazed with fury. Her teeth ground together, making a grinding sound.

Upon seeing this, Xin Ruyin quickly blinked and nodded slightly.
"Senior Han wants to see you, Senior Sister. He asked me to persuade you not to be angry. He had his reasons back then."

"Humph."

　That's enough for tonight, it's too late, just trying to survive.

　　It's very short, please forgive me.

　　My wife is urging me to get back to work.

　　Guys, give me all your monthly tickets and recommendation tickets!
