Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 495: Chapter 236: Nascent Soul Monster—Situ Feng

The Island Protection Array on Hu Yue Island was all set up by Ji Yuan, so even if Tu Yue didn’t open the door for him, he knew how to secretly sneak in.

But doing such a thing is not the act of a virtuous person.

So Ji Yuan still returned to Wuyou Island first. After checking the island to make sure there were no problems, he sent a message to Dong Qian.

He said he had returned, but was still on Wan You Island, so he asked Dong Qian if she could come to Wuyou Island first to help tidy up the house.

Ji Yuan also took the opportunity to inform Dong Qian of the Spell to pass through the Island Protection Array. In some ways, this was a form of trust… although the Spell could be changed at any time.

After sending the message, Ji Yuan activated the Cave Mansion effect, and the house was instantly clean and tidy.

Since it’s already clean, what else does Dong Qian need to tidy up?

Naturally, it’s to tidy up Ji Yuan himself.

So after sending the message, Ji Yuan waited at the island’s entrance, ready to give Dong Qian a surprise once she arrived.

However, after sending the message, Ji Yuan waited and waited, but there was no reply.

This isn’t right. Could it be that Dong Qian isn’t on the island?

Ji Yuan sent another message, asking if Dong Qian was on Hu Yue Island, but once again, there was no reply.

That pretty much confirmed that Dong Qian wasn’t on Hu Yue Island. But where could she have gone?

Not receiving a response from the Communication Talisman meant she wasn’t in the Water Dragon Sect; she had left the sect. However, it wasn’t her turn to be on duty yet, and with her cautious nature… she wouldn’t leave the sect unless it was something important.

Could it be that with the Six-tailed Demon Beast by her side, she’s now fearless?

Thinking about it, it makes sense. The Six-tailed is a mid-Tier Three Demon Beast, equivalent to a mid-Golden Core human. With this Spirit Beast following her, she indeed could go to many places.

Since she wasn’t there, Ji Yuan had no choice but to move on to his next task.

He decided to find Ling Er and have her take him to meet the Wen Lin couple.

After all, it had been more than a decade since they last saw each other. Having learned of their whereabouts, spending a day or two to visit was worth it.

But Ji Yuan didn’t know how to find Ling Er on Qingfeng Island, so, reluctantly, he continued to send a message to Hua Yaoyue.

“Qingfeng Island is just west of the Ancestral Hall; when you go there, Kong Xifeng will naturally meet you.”

Hua Yaoyue spoke lazily, as if calling the Supreme Elder by his full name was no big deal to her.

Ji Yuan thanked Hua Yaoyue through the message, then summoned the Flying Boat and hurriedly headed north.

A day later.

He arrived at the location Hua Yaoyue had mentioned, and before he had even taken a few breaths, a figure suddenly appeared before him.

“Brother Ji, why did it take you so long? Ling Er has been waiting for you for a long time.”

Wen Linger was still standing on that swallow-shaped Flying Treasure.

“I just escaped back from outside; there are many things to do within the sect, and after just finishing up, I came immediately to find you.”

Looking at Wen Linger in front of him, Ji Yuan couldn’t help but feel a bit emotional.

Who would have thought that the little girl who often followed him around asking for candy would grow into such a fine young woman?

And she turned out so beautiful… Ah, what a crime.

“Hmph, alright, considering you didn’t do it on purpose, I’ll barely forgive you.”

After speaking, Wen Linger activated the Flying Treasure beneath her feet, “Let’s go. I already sent a message to my father saying you were coming, and my mother said she’s been fishing for three days in a row just so you can try her cooking.”

“Oh? Brother Wen has that skill? He must have caught quite a bit then.”

Ji Yuan said in surprise.

“Hehe, my mother said that on the third day, he jumped into the lake and used Magic to catch a fish for you, but don’t tell my dad. He has a reputation to maintain.”

Wen Linger chatted animatedly.

An old fighter pilot, huh? Ji Yuan was accustomed to it and nodded in agreement.

Then the two continued heading west until they reached a somewhat desolate water area. Only there did Wen Linger say they had arrived.

Once again, it was a water area hidden by an Array; Ji Yuan scanned it several times with his Divine Sense but couldn’t find it. It’s estimated only a Nascent Soul Cultivator could spot it.

After they arrived, Wen Linger performed several Hand Seals consecutively, and ripples appeared in the void in front of them.

“Brother Ji, did you remember how to open the door? If not, I can teach you again.”

“I remember, I remember.”

Ji Yuan nodded quickly, and the two stepped through the ripples. Ji Yuan felt as if he had arrived in a new world, or rather… a paradise.

In front of him was a large island, but there weren’t many people living there.

It was somewhat similar to the layout of Li Family Island; most people lived on the flat ground near the shore, while further up there were dense forests and even a mountain range for climbing.

“The people living here are relatives in the Qi Cultivation Stage of some Golden Core Cultivators in our sect. Some Foundation Establishment Cultivators live here too, and my master said I could achieve Core Formation in the future, so I brought my parents here.”

As Wen Linger introduced, she led Ji Yuan to land on the eastern side of Mist Hidden Island, finally stopping before a courtyard near the shore.

On the street nearby, four or five people were sitting and chatting, all with happy expressions, without any worries about cultivation, let alone a Demon Dao invasion.

“Oh, isn’t this Ling Er? It’s neither lunar new year nor a festival, why do you have time to come home?”

“And you’ve brought such a handsome Daoist friend with you. Could he be your Dao companion?”

“Indeed, they do make a perfectly matched couple, a union made in heaven!”
