Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1103: Chapter 598: Reunion

The long-distance Flying Boat of Central State Commerce, after nine months of travel, safely arrived at the Central State Continent.

The long-distance Flying Boat specially took a detour to drop Jian Wuwei off at a location close to the ’Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion’.

After Jian Wuwei got off the long-distance Flying Boat, even though what lay before him was an empty ocean, he felt a sense of a wanderer returning home.

He flew to a barrier, which automatically verified his identity and did not prevent him from entering.

Through the barrier, he saw familiar scenery; the Sword Peak was just as unchanged as in the past.

Just as he entered the barrier and was observing the long-missed scenery of ’Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion’, a surge of energy enveloped him, causing his figure to vanish from where he stood.

Next, Jian Wuwei appeared in another space, where an elder with entirely white hair and beard stood before him.

”Finally home!” the elder said lightly.

”Grandfather, your grandson has been unfilial!” Jian Wuwei, upon seeing the elder, tears gushed out like a broken dam, and he knelt and kowtowed heavily as he spoke.

”The Jian Family’s bloodline is thin, and when the incident happened with you and your father, I was in seclusion. I searched for you but never received any news; you’ve suffered all these years!” The elder reached out to pat Jian Wuwei’s head, his eyes reflecting a sense of reminiscence as he spoke.

The elder did not speak of Jian Wuwei’s father, because with the bloodline connection, he could be certain that Jian Wuwei’s father had fallen, unable even for the Nascent Soul to escape.

It was not that he did not wish to ask Jian Wuwei, but he chose not to bring it up just as he had returned.

”Father encountered enemies back then; to save me, he used his life to trigger Sword Intent, which fortunately broke open a spatial rift in the void, and I was transported through it to the Beishu Continent!” Jian Wuwei said while crying.

He could never forget how his father had abandoned the chance to live to leave a sliver of hope for him.

Given his father’s strength, although he was defeated in that battle, it was indeed possible for the Nascent Soul to escape.

But if he had done so, Jian Wuwei would not have been taken away.

Thus, his father made a choice so Jian Wuwei would survive.

The elder sighed deeply; no wonder Jian Wuwei hadn’t been found all these years, as Beishu Continent is nearly the most remote place in the Cultivation World with scarce resources, and a poor Spiritual Energy environment, making cultivators unwilling to travel there.

Furthermore, Beishu Continent’s native powers had lost contact with other continents millions of years ago, and even large commerce firms wouldn’t do business on Beishu Continent; only medium-sized cross-continental firms might care about such small profit.

Although Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion’s intelligence network is broad, it hadn’t extended it to Beishu Continent.

”You’ve had it tough, advancing to the Nascent Soul Stage on Beishu Continent. After returning, focus on cultivation; the previous hardships are beneficial to you!” The elder helped Jian Wuwei up as he spoke.

”Huh, why is your foundation so depleted?” The elder, while helping Jian Wuwei, checked his body and asked in surprise.

Previously, although he didn’t show much excitement, he was merely suppressing it; how could he not be excited.

The Jian Family has a heritage in Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion spanning over ten thousand years, almost coexisting with it.

To his own lineage, because of the fall of Jian Wuwei’s father, the Jian Family had a break on Jian Wuwei’s father’s side.

If not for Jian Wuwei’s return, the Jian Family might be at risk of becoming extinct.

After calming his emotions over time, the elder finally noticed the abnormality in Jian Wuwei’s body.

Jian Wuwei recounted to the elder his experiences on Dongqi Continent, particularly emphasizing the immense favor he owed.

”You must act according to your heart; I won’t stop you from repaying kindness, but after restoring your cultivation, you must first leave descendants for the Jian Family!” The elder thought for a moment and said.

The Sword Heart of a Sword Cultivator is extremely important; even if the elder didn’t want Jian Wuwei to spend his life repaying kindness, if Jian Wuwei wished to enhance his cultivation level in the future, he couldn’t obstruct Jian Wuwei.

If he were to stop him, Jian Wuwei’s Sword Heart would be damaged, and he would no longer have any chance to enhance his cultivation level.

”Come with me; I’ve kept your old cave dwelling preserved!” The elder led Jian Wuwei outside and pointed to a nearby cave dwelling.

Jian Wuwei gazed at the scenery before him; if Li Yuanba were here, he would certainly find the scenery identical to that on the ’Sword Intent Sky Towering Scroll’.

This is the true core of Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion, while the Sword Peak outside is merely the residence of ordinary sword cultivators within the sect.

”Grandfather, you’ve kept the cave dwelling!” Jian Wuwei softly said as he looked at his own cave dwelling.

Back then, he was in no position to possess a cave dwelling here; the so-called cave dwelling was something the elder had built next to his own dwelling for his grandson, so that he would have a place to stay here.

”Cultivate well here and recover soon!” The elder waved his hand as he spoke.

He had experienced too much and was not adept at expressing emotions; were it not for matters concerning his grandson, he would rarely appear in Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion.

”Grandfather, I have taken a disciple named Li Yuanba, who, I hear, has also advanced to the Nascent Soul Stage, and returned to the Pavilion before me. When you have time, please look after him; there’s something here that’s been brought by Master Li for him!” Jian Wuwei was about to enter the cave dwelling when he recalled an important matter and turned to the elder.
