299: Chapter 299 A Brief Reunion, Return to the Great Yan

"Revered Master!"

At the Langya Grotto-Heaven, the temporary residence for the people from the Ancient Immortal Realm, Bai Xiyin couldn't wait to throw herself at Yun Xi the moment she saw her.

"Diminutive."

Seeing the Disciple she hadn't seen for a long time, Yun Xi felt a warmth in her heart.

"Revered Master..."

Han Qing's eyes grew slightly moist as she also leaned tightly into Yun Xi's embrace like a child.

"Qinger."

Sniff, sniff!

Sniff, sniff~~!

Bai Xiyin's delicate nose twitched slightly, and then she suddenly raised her eyes, giving Qin Tian a resentful look.

Qin Tian: ?

No way, I even washed with flower dew; how could she still smell it?

He had still underestimated his Fourth Junior Sister's sensitivity!

"Xiao Xi!"

Xue Wener and Qin Yu arrived through the air.

Best friends reuniting was naturally an exceptionally exciting occasion!

Yun Xi, however, felt a bit uneasy for a moment.

After all, she and her best friend's son had just...

"Wen... Sister..."

"Qin... Yu..."

Pfft.

Xue Wener pursed her lips and smiled.

"Xiao Xi, we haven't seen each other in years; why have you become so stiff?"

"This won't do!"

"Take this!"

With a sudden tickle to the waist, Yun Xi found it hard to resist.

Before long, sounds of laughter and joy rang out.

It was clear that Xue Wener was very happy.

Qin Yu quietly moved to Qin Tian's side.

"Qin Tian, let me tell you a secret. Wener has already thought of the names for your and Yun Xi's children. If it's a boy, he'll be called..."

"Stop! Aunt, what on earth are you talking about?"

"The Ancient Ancestor is calling me, I'm leaving first, Aunt!"

Before the words had even finished, Qin Tian fled as if escaping.

Qin Yu was puzzled.

"Why run so fast?"

"It's just discussing names for children, isn't it? This kid, honestly..."

...

Three thousand miles outside the grotto-heaven.

Qin Tian arrived in an instant.

On the mountain peak, two figures sat opposite each other, playing chess.

They were Qin Longevity and Wen Qiu.

"Senior Brother Wen, why are you here?"

Wen Qiu sighed, "Those three are making too much noise fighting, so I came here for some peace and quiet."

"Ancient Ancestor, where is Ancient Ancestor Snow Princess?"

Qin Longevity gave a knowing smile, "She gained some insight from watching the game and has gone into secluded cultivation."

"That's really unfortunate..." Qin Tian sighed.

Wen Qiu said indifferently, "Gaining insight is true, but whether this secluded cultivation is real or fake is hard to say."

Qin Tian: ?

He understood the meaning behind the words.

Snow Princess seemed to be avoiding him...

But why?

Qin Tian couldn't figure it out.

However, if Snow Princess didn't want to be seen, he probably would never be able to find her.

I still need to attain the Dao of Longevity quickly!

"Ancient Ancestor, what exactly happened?"

Qin Longevity shook his head, "It cannot be spoken. When she figures it out, she will naturally come looking for you."

Fine...

Qin Tian sighed.

Wen Qiu placed a piece, looking at the board with a satisfied nod, seemingly having the victory in hand.

"The Great Yan Immortal Lord is about to break through to the Immortal King Realm. If you have time, you can go and observe."

Qin Tian: !!

"So soon?"

At the Heavenly Tablet Ceremony, Qin Tian had been entrusted by the Great Yan Immortal Lord to kill Prince Yan Tuo.

How long had it been since then?

"It seems the opposing forces within the Great Yan Immortal Dynasty have been cleared out."

Wen Qiu nodded, "Over these years, the Great Yan Immortal Dynasty was in turmoil, but the Great Yan Immortal Lord swept through with thunderous force. Now, the Immortal Dynasty is as solid as a rock."

Qin Tian nodded, "That's not a bad thing..."

However, Qin Longevity remained silent, his expression somewhat solemn.

"Ancient Ancestor, is something wrong?"

Qin Longevity sighed.

"If the Great Yan Immortal Lord can successfully break through, everything will naturally be fine. I'm only afraid of accidents during his Breakthrough."

Qin Tian was puzzled.

Wen Qiu added, "For those of the Imperial Lineage to break through to the Immortal King Realm, they need ten thousand immortal veins as a foundation."

"The quantity the Great Yan Immortal Lord has collected should be enough, but quantity alone does not guarantee success..."

Qin Tian was startled.

"Senior Brother Wen, are you saying that if an accident occurs midway, the Great Yan Immortal Lord might target other immortal veins?"

Wen Qiu nodded.

Qin Tian's heart sank.

If the Great Yan Immortal Lord really acted, You Ruoli's Qianyuan Immortal Vein would likely be the first target.

When it came to the major matter of breaking through to an Immortal King, the Great Yan Immortal Lord would definitely not hesitate.

"Thank you."

Qin Tian thanked him solemnly.

He knew that Wen Qiu wasn't just looking for peace and quiet, but had come specifically to inform him and Qin Longevity of this news.

So they could take precautions in advance.

These secrets...

Only someone like Ancient Ancestor Zangjian could understand...

He owed another huge favor!

Wen Qiu smiled faintly, "In a moment of crisis, Revered Master will naturally take action."

"But an Immortal Dynasty's connection to Luck is too close; there will be variables in the unseen. Ultimately, it depends on whether the imperial Luck she carries is sufficient..."

Qin Tian's eyes brightened slightly.

If Ancient Ancestor Zangjian acted, the chances would be even greater.

"Senior Brother Wen, when it comes to imperial Luck, there is probably no one in this world who can compare to Ruoli."

Wen Qiu was surprised.

"That is for the best then."

The corners of Qin Tian's lips curled up.

Are you kidding? You Ruoli is a major villain!

Besides those sons of destiny, who could kill her?

But to prevent accidents, Qin Tian still needed to make some preparations.

The best-case scenario was naturally for the Great Yan Immortal Lord to break through smoothly, and all would be well.

That was also what Qin Tian most hoped to see...

"Senior Brother Wen, roughly how much time is left?"

Wen Qiu smiled.

"Breaking through to the Immortal King Realm is incredibly difficult."

"Time is measured in tens of thousands of years."

"For the Great Yan Immortal Lord to consume all the immortal veins he has collected, it will take at least several thousand years."

Qin Tian's heart relaxed slightly.

Several thousand years, then there was plenty of time to prepare...

Immortal Dynasties and Imperial Lineages are interconnected; a Breakthrough would create a massive commotion, making it impossible to hide.

You Ruoli would definitely not be absent.

After a bit of thought, Qin Tian made a decision.

"Ancient Ancestor, I will set out in a few days to the Great Yan Immortal Dynasty to discuss with Ruoli how to deal with this."

Qin Longevity nodded.

Along the way, he could also visit Lan Cangyu and Lan Hanxin...

According to Ling Su, they were related to the innate chaotic spiritual treasure, the Chaos Yin-Yang Jade.

"The path of cultivation is one of few gatherings and many partings. You should spend these next few days well with them."

Qin Tian nodded and left the mountain peak.

Over the next few days, Qin Tian truly experienced what it meant to be with little vixens...

During the day, he sparred and discussed the Dao with everyone.

As for the nights...

On the first day, Bai Xiyin quietly slipped into his room, seemingly as revenge for Qin Tian not being close to her for so many days, and drained him thoroughly...

On the second day, Han Qing came quietly. Initially, she was much gentler than Bai Xiyin, but she became increasingly wild in the latter half, leaving quietly again by daybreak...

On the third day, Xue Yi came...

Qin Tian seriously suspected they had planned this together...

Then, on the fourth day, all three...

They all came...

Qin Tian felt a bit of pain in his kidneys.

The fifth day was the last day before Yun Xi returned to secluded cultivation. Bai Xiyin, Han Qing, and Xue Yi did not appear; only Yun Xi came alone.

It was another sleepless night.

Qin Tian couldn't help but sigh.

The Prison-Suppressing Indestructible Body is truly useful!

If not for this Cultivation Technique, he really wouldn't have been able to take it!

On the sixth day, Yun Xi went back to secluded cultivation.

Qin Tian also bid farewell to everyone and, taking only Ling Su with him, headed toward the Great Yan Immortal Dynasty.

Along the way, Ling Su seemed a bit dispirited.

"What's wrong?" Qin Tian asked curiously.

"Nothing, don't ask!"

Ling Su turned away, her small face slightly flushed.

Qin Tian didn't know that where Ling Su lived was actually very close to where he lived.

She had heard quite a bit of the commotion over the past few days...

"Hurry up!"

"You big pervert!"

Ling Su gave a soft snort and took off into the air on her own.

Qin Tian: ???

"Wait, how am I a pervert?"

"That's slander!"

Before his voice faded, Qin Tian also chased after her...

A few days later.

The two stepped through the teleportation formation and returned once more to the Great Yan Immortal Dynasty...
