Chapter 4 Homecoming

Wu Xie was speeding in the air with his sword light, and he kept running.

It was not until Shaoguang Zhenren asked him if he had anything else he wanted that he suddenly woke up and remembered that the two elders in the family were nearly fifty years old.

He didn't care about this before, because he was still inferring from his subconscious experience on earth. In countries with an average life span of around 70 years old, he was nearly fifty years old and even an elderly person. Apart from some special jobs or physical factors, people of this age are often still working.

But this world is different. The average life expectancy here is probably only forty years or even less than 70 years old. People in their fifties have entered their twilight years. Many people who looked very healthy in the past will age rapidly from this time on. Good maintenance and good luck, they may be able to live to their sixties or even seventy years old. But for ordinary people, at this age, they should consider their funerals.

If it weren't for the real person Shaoguang reminding that Wu Jie would have devoted himself to practicing, it would probably take at least three to five years to get out of seclusion. If the two elders were in poor health, they might have been gone.

This is often the case in the world. When children work hard, want to pursue their ideals and strive for a better life, their parents who raise themselves are slowly getting older in places they don’t pay attention to, with gray hair and hunched figure.

Perhaps one day, when they finally achieved success in their careers and could take a breath with peace of mind, they looked back but could not see the figures of the two elders, and could only see two piles of loess that depend on each other.

The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop, and the son wants to be raised but the parents are not waiting.

Wu Jie was lucky in that world in that previous life. When they were successful in their careers, they often had time to fulfill their filial piety to their parents.

Wu Jie was also lucky. He received reminders and support from his elders in the sect, and he could have time to go home to fulfill his filial piety.

Recalling the scene when he set off, he suddenly woke up and remembered that the two old men had white hair on their temples at that time, and the reluctance in their eyes when they were about to leave home to seek immortality.

Before he knew it, tears blurred his eyes, and the speed of flying with the sword increased faster and faster.

If a cultivator wants to fly based on his own magic power, he must have the cultivation level of the refining power. But if he has a suitable magic weapon, he can only have the realm of refining power. Of course, he cannot fly too high or too fast.

A cultivator of refining a gang can travel thousands of miles a day, no matter any difficulties or obstacles, and can fly from one end of the Jiuzhou land in two days. However, monks of the hundreds of refining realm are often flying only a hundred feet away from the ground and two or three thousand miles a day. When encountering a continuous mountain like a hundred thousand mountains that is at the highest point, they cannot fly over the sky, and they can only take risks passing through the mountains or take detours honestly.

Although Wu Jie was eager to go home to fulfill his filial piety, he did not want to have trouble, so he honestly bypassed the 100,000 mountains and went east to the seaside, and then went north again along the coastline.

When it was dark, he was already resting outside a small seaside village near the border of South Vietnam.

The qi of the hundreds of cultivation cultivators is long, and Wu Jie is one of the best. With the support of Fire Eye, he can draw mana from the world of Heavenly Books when necessary, and it will be fine if he flies to the world for days and nights in one breath.

But flying is casting spells, and casting spells consumes the mind. His mind is not strong enough to last for so long.

The more anxious you are, the more calm you need. Long-distance travel is not an easy thing, and there is nothing wrong with being cautious.

Of course, he would not sleep in the open, but chose to rest in the world of Tianshu - if he had better conditions, he would not choose, instead of suffering, either he was honing his will or his mind was in water.

Wu Jie's mental state is very normal and he does not plan to learn about the lifestyle of the ascetic monk for the time being, so of course he would choose to sleep in a soft and warm bed.

Since he entered the Tao, the speed of accumulating source power in the world of Heavenly Books has been much faster than before, so it is not as difficult as before. Wu Jie generously built a room for Jasmine and himself, which is located on two separate plots of independent lands.

The land of Jasmine is a lush vegetable garden, with a small house next to the vegetable garden. Wu Jie's land has no open space, only two adjacent houses, namely the bedroom and the quiet room.

Jasmine had no requirements for her room, and the vegetable field only planted ordinary vegetables. Anyway, she had great magical powers and could ripen all the vegetables in the entire vegetable field with one spell. Even if she wanted vegetables that were taller than people or could dig a hole to let her get into and sleep, it would be fine.

Wu Jie's house is a bit special, but it's okay for the bedroom. The concentration of heaven and earth energy in that quiet room is extremely high, and even the quiet room in Xianshan is inferior.

This is his main place of cultivation, and it is precisely because of this holy cultivation place that can make the world's cultivators jealous and bleeding that he can make such great progress in just three years.

Wu Jie also built an alchemy room and a tool refining workshop under the guidance of Jasmine, but they were all empty frames, and neither the alchemy furnace nor the tool refining tools were prepared.

Those things require a lot of source power, and unless they really need to be used, there is no need to make them now.

He also built two special spiritual platforms, which usually store true qi and magic power, and can be extracted urgently when needed. Because the source is himself, there will be no obstacles or stagnation in use, as if he has an endless source of power.

Up to now, the true qi and magic power stored in Lingtaichung are almost a hundred times that of him. With the power of these reserves, he has the confidence to defeat any cultivator under the realm of refining the Gang!

Unfortunately, the light ball condensed by the remnant soul of the Holy Heavenly Girl is still sleeping in the Holy Spring. Although you can feel that the vitality inside is slowly recovering, it will probably take a long time before she can resurrect.

This is probably the only deficit in the construction of the entire Heavenly Book World in recent years.

After a peaceful night passed, Wu Jie, who was regaining his energy, set off again, flew into the air with the sword light, and flew towards the north.

He did not go deep into the sea, but just flew along the coastline to avoid unnecessary trouble. But even so, when passing by an extremely remote beach, he still alarmed a giant tortoise with a dragon head and spewed several water arrows at him.

"What a bold thing! He dares to provoke us! Kill him!" Jasmine shouted angrily, "Disassemble this guy! Then find its nest and cut all its descendants to death! Stew them together into turtle soup!"

"I'm not available now." Wu Jie blocked her roar back with a word, but told her to record the location on the map.

Although he was not hit, he was attacked for no reason, and he was also very annoyed. After he was filial, he would definitely have to communicate with this unreasonable giant tortoise on his way back to the master's sect!

Well, if this guy is not very sensible enough, he doesn't mind stewing some turtle soup for everyone to try it out!

This small episode did not prevent Wu Jie from rushing to the road. He went north and bypassed the mountains that stretched for thousands of miles. By the afternoon, he had already left the port when he and Taotu left Chu State.

When he was a country boy, Chu State was in his impression of it as the "Great Chu State". When his horizons gradually broadened, Chu State became the "East Chu State" or the "Southern Chu State". Both of these are about its geographical location, because it is located in the southeast of Jiuzhou.

In contrast, the positioning of the Great Yue Kingdom is very clear. It is really simple and clear that only the saying "Nan Yue" is said.

Sitting in the restaurant where they had their last meal in their hometown before they set off, Wu Jie couldn't help but feel a little moved.

When they set out from here together and headed to Nanyue on a sea boat, they never thought that in just four years, they had become an immortal in the eyes of ordinary people. They could fly over tens of thousands of miles with the light of swords and fly back to their motherland from Nanyue without any means of transportation?

At that time...even the most optimistic estimate, I never imagined such a thing!

Perhaps it was because he drank half a pot of rice wine, or perhaps because he was in a good mood, he was a little fluttering when he flew next. He only determined a general direction when he flew. As a result, when it was getting late, he realized that he had taken the wrong path and had already flew over.

"Fourth brother, I think you're a little proud..."

Faced with Du Ruo's criticism, Wu Jie smiled awkwardly and turned around and flew back to his hometown.

Because of such delay, when he arrived at Anfeng County, it was almost completely dark.

It is not convenient to walk in the dark, but Wu Jie has the ability to see night vision. However, he rarely went to the county town and went out for another four years. He was a little unfamiliar with the roads in the county town - or he had never been familiar with this place at all. It took him a little time to find the Wu family pharmacy.

The former Wang Family Pharmacy and later Wu Family Pharmacy have now been renamed "Jishitang". Two mighty stone qilins stand on both sides of the vermilion gate, and the copper rings on the door are obviously often rubbed by people, and the bright light is shining.

The plaque hanging outside the gate had no text, but was stamped with a large seal after the reign of Emperor Da Chu. The bright words "Emperor" on the seal were enough to blind the eyes of officials from all walks of life; the signature of the iron-wood couplet "Nanhua Shen Yi" can make the people in the martial arts world who want to cause trouble consider whether they are worth enough or not, whether they can hold on to the Broken Water Sword even if it is just a casual blow.

It can be seen that when Wu Jie was not at home, his family should have lived a good life.

He smiled, raised his hand and held the copper ring, and patted it lightly twice.

"Here's here!" A thick and powerful voice came, and the door quickly opened, and Jon, wearing a green silk dress, walked out.

"Where is the patient?" he asked.

Wu Jie was stunned and couldn't help but ask, "Where are patients?"

"If there is no patient, why are you knocking on the door!" Jon was suddenly angry, "If friends from Jianghu come to visit, at least you should have a name!"

Wu Jie couldn't help laughing: "Old Qiao, why don't you even know me? I've only been away from home for four years!"

Jon then realized, looked at him carefully, and finally confirmed that the young man in blue was Wu Jie.

"Huh? Could it be the second young master? But your appearance has not changed at all!"

"I have become an immortal after practicing cultivation."

So Jon stayed there, after a while, he jumped up suddenly, ran into the house, and shouted, "Master! Madam! The Second Young Master is back! The Second Young Master is back to become an immortal!"

His voice was so loud that if Wu Jie had not used the spell to block the sound in time, he would have been afraid that half of Anfeng County would have heard it.

Wu Jie smiled and shook his head, stepped into the door, and then closed the door by himself.

This guy Jon... is in his thirties, why is he so rough...

He walked into the house and walked past the pharmacy lobby. He saw his parents hurriedly running over with Jon. From a distance, he heard their voices: "A Jie is back? Where is he!"

Wu Jie's eyes suddenly turned red, and he flashed to the two elders and leaned over and knelt down.

"Unfilial child Wu Jie, pay homage to my parents!"
