79: Chapter 8 Reversing Time?

Lu Yuan's body stiffened.

But as that light seeped into his Meridians and blood vessels like a warm stream.

Spreading throughout his body.

His breathing gradually calmed down.

Rich light-attribute energy poured into his body continuously.

Seeping into every cell.

Bursts of vigorous vitality erupted deep within his body.

Wrinkles on his face faded, his hair turned black, and his skin regained its elasticity.

Toxins accumulated over many years disappeared.

Metabolic deposits in his arteries also broke down and dissolved.

Bone density increased.

Every organ regained its vitality.

Even the excess fat in his body melted away.

His obese body began to shrink gradually.

Becoming more toned.

An hour passed.

The light slowly receded.

Lu Yuan.

The forty-year-old, weathered, greasy middle-aged man.

Where he had been sitting.

A striking young man now appeared.

He looked no older than twenty-three.

It was as if he had been rejuvenated.

However.

That didn't seem quite accurate.

He looked even better and more handsome than he did in his youth.

Almost like a big star in a holographic projection.

Song Yue stood there.

Covering her mouth in surprise.

Tears welled up in the corners of her eyes.

Lu Yuan opened his eyes.

For a whole hour.

He felt as if he had been bathing in the embrace of the Sun God and resting well.

He raised his arm.

Suddenly feeling his body had become much lighter.

It was completely effortless.

When he looked up.

He saw the tears in Song Yue's eyes.

He hurriedly ran over and hugged her.

"Wife, why are you crying?"

"Go look in the mirror,"

She whispered.

Her voice trembling with uncontrollable excitement.

Lu Yuan walked over to the mirror on the wall.

In an instant.

He stared blankly at his reflection in the mirror.

Without blinking.

It was him.

But very young.

Young enough to look exactly like the version of himself he had imagined at twenty-three.

The person he had always hoped to become.

He touched his cheek.

The reflection in the mirror did the same.

He turned around.

He didn't speak.

Song Yue nodded at him with tears in her eyes.

Some unspoken emotion flowed between them.

Tears welled up in Lu Yuan's eyes.

Then, like a dam breaking.

Tears streamed down.

His shoulders trembled slightly.

He could not Cultivate.

He could never maintain his youth like a warrior.

He had accepted that.

And convinced himself to grow old with his wife.

Seeing his son succeed was enough.

But now.

He had regained his youth.

He turned to look at Lu Chen.

And hugged him tightly.

Lu Chen did not resist.

He gently patted his father's back.

At this moment.

Time seemed to stand still.

When Lu Yuan finally realized and let go of Lu Chen.

He couldn't help but glance shyly at Song Yue.

Then he cleared his throat.

"Lu Chen, can you... uh..."

"Dad, do you think I would let you be young alone and let Mom look older?"

Lu Chen said, crossing his arms with a mischievous look.

"And you'd better not be thinking that you can go out and attract young girls now."

Lu Yuan's eyes lit up when he heard the first sentence.

But when he heard the second sentence, his expression stiffened instantly.

He looked at Song Yue in a panic.

"Is that so?"

Song Yue arched her eyebrows.

Staring at him with teary eyes.

Lu Yuan immediately begged for mercy.

"I swear, Wife, I've never thought of such a thing, not even for a second..."

Then Lu Chen and Song Yue turned their heads simultaneously.

Looking at him suspiciously.

"Ahem, okay, Mom."

Lu Chen quickly changed the subject.

Pointing to the sofa.

"Now it's your turn."

Song Yue sat down, sniffling.

A moment later.

A silver light enveloped her.

Wrapping her in a soft cocoon.

An hour later.

When the light dissipated.

A breathtakingly young woman stood up.

She looked about twenty-three years old.

Her features were exquisite and bright.

She was radiant.

Walking down the street.

Every man who saw her couldn't help but turn their heads.

Lu Yuan's mouth hung open slightly.

He was almost drooling.

"Wife... is that you?"

Song Yue's cheeks flushed under his intense gaze.

Blushing, she said.

"You old man, stop staring at me like that."

Lu Yuan laughed heartily.

Unable to control his laughter.

"Hahaha, I've hit the jackpot!"

Song Yue glared at him.

But there was a smile on her lips.

Lu Chen watched them quietly.

Feeling immensely satisfied.

He hoped they would always be by his side.

Although his current healing technique couldn't make them live longer.

It could make them look younger.

One day.

When he was strong enough to leave the Wasteland.

He would find a way to help ordinary people achieve Awakening.

And let them Cultivate with him.

He also thought of Shen Ci—Luo Nianwei's mother.

Perhaps she could also regain her youth.

Who knows?

After all.

This is a world of cultivation.

If one's strength is powerful enough.

One day, reversing time to bring back Luo Nianwei's deceased father.

Might not be impossible.

When his parents' emotions gradually calmed down.

Lu Chen cleared his throat.

And spoke up.

"Mom and Dad... I want to tell you something."

They turned to look at him, filled with anticipation.

"I've fallen for a girl named Luo Nianwei..."

He said softly.

"I want you to come with me tonight to formally visit her family and propose to her."

"Tomorrow, I will hold a farewell banquet and announce it publicly."
