232: Go down the mountain to find Wugensheng

A week later, Lin Yuan was officially discharged from the hospital.

This time when he was discharged, Wang Ye, Zhuge Qing, Lu Linglong, Lu Jin, Zhao Fangxu... even the Old Celestial Master and Tian Jinzhong came over.

"Master... Martial Uncle Tian... how do you have the time to come here?"

The Old Celestial Master narrowed his eyes.

"I originally intended to come and collect your corpse, but you brat, your life is tough, so I didn't manage to do it."

Tian Jinzhong immediately pushed the Old Celestial Master.

"Senior Brother, there are so many people here, couldn't you save some Face for the child?"

"Hmph, Junior Brother, you just spoil him."

"Brat, go back and Cultivate properly this time. Now you know that there is always someone better, and there is always a heaven above heaven, right?"

"Disciple understands."

Lu Jin, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but step forward to persuade him.

"Old Celestial Master, you are too harsh on this kid. Lin Yuan just got discharged from the hospital, and you are already talking to him like that."

"I heard that the big shots above, after hearing about this matter, have been praising Lin Yuan endlessly. Lin Yuan's position as one of The Ten Elders is now completely secure. Ox Nose, you should just be secretly happy."

"I dream of having a Disciple like this. If you don't want him, then I will take him!!"

"Get lost! You dare to snatch a Disciple from this old man!?"

"I think that slap back then was too light!!"

"Ox Nose!! Say that again, damn it!?"

"I'll say it! So what!?"

Just as Lu Jin was about to roll up his sleeves and prepare to spar with the Old Celestial Master, Zhao Fangxu immediately stepped forward.

"The two of you! Both of you are highly respected figures in the Outsider World!"

"For the sake of the company's Face..."

"I... implore the two of you to calm your anger..."

The Old Celestial Master immediately turned his head away and said nothing more.

Zhao Fangxu walked forward very respectfully.

"Ahem... Immortal Master Lin Yuan, according to the instructions from above, you will soon be the company's new member of The Ten Elders. However, there are some things that need to be prepared."

"Additionally, please keep this envelope safe; it records the location there in detail."

Lin Yuan immediately kept the envelope close to him. He knew that the place Zhao Fangxu was talking about was the Suolong Well.

Several days later, everyone returned to Mount Longhu.

On this day, the Old Celestial Master was drinking tea with Tian Jinzhong when Lin Yuan walked over.

"Lin Yuan, is there something you need?"

Tian Jinzhong poured a cup of tea for Lin Yuan.

"Master, Martial Uncle, I might need to go down the mountain again in a few days."

The Old Celestial Master frowned.

"You brat, your Foundation and Qi and blood were both damaged. You have only recently been able to use Qi in large amounts to repair the hidden injuries in your body. It hasn't been long, and you want to go out and roam again."

"This time, I plan to go find someone."

"Who? You didn't go down the mountain and find a lover, did you?"

"No... I am going down the mountain to find Rootless Life."

Lin Yuan did not intend to hide it from everyone this time, because this time when he went to find Rootless Life, even he did not know if he would be able to come back out.

Or rather, what the world would look like after he came out were all unknowns.

With time and space overlapping, he also didn't know if things would remain the same after he came out.

Imagine, Rootless Life is trapped in one place, but from his perspective, he might have only stayed for a month, while in real life, thirty years have already passed...

Lin Yuan was actually quite afraid that once he came out, things would have changed, and everyone he knew would have left him.

This was the most terrifying part...

"You want to find Rootless Life!? He has been missing for decades. Could it be that you know where he is?"

The Old Celestial Master's pupils dilated.

The Outsider World had been searching hard for traces of Rootless Life for a long time, but there were no clues at all; it was as if this person had vanished into thin air.

"Lin Yuan, why are you looking for Rootless Life? He is from our generation."

Tian Jinzhong asked with some confusion.

"Little Lin Yuan, do you know that Rootless Life was the culprit behind the Jiashen Rebellion back then!"

"If it weren't for him, there wouldn't have been the so-called Thirty-Six Thieves back then! Those people would have been the pride of their respective Schools, how could such a tragedy have occurred!!"

"Do you know how many people died in the Jiashen Rebellion back then!!"

"What is the point of you going to find him!?"

"If Rootless Life isn't found, and you get injured because of it, what will you do?"

"If Rootless Life is found by you, and he ends up causing trouble again, leading to even more people paying with their lives!!"

"Look at me and Zhang Huaiyi; one is crippled, and the other spent his whole life hiding!! In the end, he died miserably in a foreign land!!"

Looking at Tian Jinzhong, Lin Yuan couldn't help but sigh.

He knew that Tian Jinzhong was also doing this for his own good.

However, there were too many secrets on Rootless Life, from the path of Ascension to how the Eight Wonders were born, and the secret of Feng Baobao; only he knew.

"Apologies, Martial Uncle Tian, I must find Rootless Life. Although he was the initiator of the Jiashen Rebellion back then, isn't the ultimate goal for us cultivators to reach the final step?"

"For the sake of Master, Senior Brothers, and you... I must go and understand the truth behind this matter."

Hearing this, the Old Celestial Master couldn't help but sigh.

"The path to ascending to heaven is extremely difficult. Lin Yuan, have you really thought this through?"

Lin Yuan nodded.

"Now that the path of Ascension has been cut off, I really want to know what exists up there. The only person who can know the truth behind this is Rootless Life."

"Rootless Life's Opportunity is very profound, and he has excellent interpersonal relationships, which is why so many people are willing to go through fire and water for him."

"He has too many secrets. This time, Disciple is going to find him, and it will involve great danger, which is why I specifically came to bid farewell."

"Perhaps this trip will take several months or even several years..."

"That long!?"

The Old Celestial Master looked at Lin Yuan in shock.

"With your strength, you only need to fly to the designated location and then carry out an armed rescue. In several months, you could circle the Blue Planet several times."

Lin Yuan smiled bitterly:

"Master, what I know now is that Rootless Life is trapped in a very special place where time and space are different from ours..."

"Wait, you mean to say that Rootless Life has been missing for so many years because he was actually trapped!?"

Lin Yuan nodded faintly.

"Yes, that's right. This news was told to me by Gu Jiting; he knows the whereabouts of Rootless Life."

"Gu Jiting!? One of the Thirty-Six Thieves from back then!? The creator of the Daluo Insight!? It was actually him!?"

The Old Celestial Master was somewhat surprised.

The Thirty-Six Thieves back then were as close as brothers. It was unexpected that after so many years, Gu Jiting was still looking for Rootless Life.

The Old Celestial Master was silent for a moment.

"Sigh... what is meant to come will eventually come. Junior Brother, don't try to persuade Lin Yuan anymore. Don't you know his personality? Just let him go."
