Chapter 268: Pure

Their voices were filled with sincerity.

What kind of place was the Zhongsheng Continent’s True Treasure Pavilion?

Ordinary Golden Core elders in charge of the station were rarely qualified to go. Their husband’s talent was outstanding, so it was very normal for him to go. However, it was different for his wife and Dao companions. Not to mention the headquarters, it would probably be difficult for them to even go to the Zhongsheng Continent.

Therefore, Wang Yun, Bai Yuying, and the others really wanted to know what their husband had sacrificed.

In the quiet room, Pei Huoyu, who was covered in light armor and had round curves, could not help but size up the female cultivators in front of her. In her heart, Shen Ping’s wife, concubine, and Dao companions were all ordinary cultivators. Being able to build a foundation in this life was the limit of cultivation. Compared to Shen Ping’s status as a core member of Class A, female cultivators with such aptitude were far inferior. It was already overestimating them to say that they were climbing the social ladder.

In the future, when Shen Ping reached the Divine Transformation realm and higher, the gap between the two sides would definitely increase. At that time, the best fate for these female cultivators would be to die in meditation after the lifespan of their Nascent Souls was exhausted.

Therefore, Pei Huoyu rarely interacted with Yu Yan, Wang Yun, and the others. Even though she already knew in her heart that she would become Shen Ping’s Dao companion, she had never thought of integrating into them.

But now, she could feel the deep affection in their eyes. The impression in her heart could not help but change slightly. Regardless of the potential of these wives, concubines, and Dao companions, just their feelings for Shen Ping were worth those cultivation resources and the restricted resources of the True Treasure Pavilion.

Other cultivators might not think so. However, in Pei Huoyu’s opinion, it was worth it.

“The calamity of the five continents and four seas is about to arrive. Other than the Zhongsheng Continent and the headquarters of the True Treasure Pavilion, the possibility of the other regions falling into a desperate situation is extremely high. Originally, as Fellow Daoist Shen’s family, you were qualified to go to the Zhongsheng Continent. However, in order to let you obtain the protection of the headquarters and enter the headquarters, Fellow Daoist Shen has been cultivating without eating or sleeping these days. Now, he has finally fulfilled the conditions to bring you to the headquarters.

“In the entire True Treasure Pavilion, there are only a few core members below the Nascent Soul Realm who can achieve such conditions. Fellow Daoist Shen is the only one below the Golden Core realm! In fact, among the previous core members, only he could do it!”

Yu Yan, Wang Yun, and the other concubines trembled. Pei Huoyu continued, “Although Fellow Daoist Shen is talented in the Dao of Talismans, it’s unprecedented for him to reach this level in just a few years. To be honest, when he said that he wanted to bring you guys to the headquarters, no one believed that Fellow Daoist Shen could do it, including me. You can imagine how much pressure Fellow Daoist Shen was under at that time.

“If it were any other cultivator, they would collapse from this pressure. But Fellow Daoist Shen overcame it.”

Wang Yun, who was standing beside Yu Yan, could not help but cry. She sobbed and muttered, “We were wrong. We were all wrong. It turns out that my husband did not neglect us because of his cultivation. He was only bearing the pressure that he should not have on our behalf. However, not only did we not understand my husband’s difficulties, but we also enjoyed the resources and environment that many cultivators could not obtain. At the same time, we complained that Husband did not have time to accompany us!” She laughed as she cried. “Yun’er really deserves to die. 1 can’t help my husband and even cause trouble for him!”

As Wang Yun muttered, she suddenly raised her palm and slapped her forehead. Her movements were fast. Bai Yuying and Mu Jin didn’t react at all.

Psst.

Pei Huoyu quickly cast a spiritual light spell and immediately restrained Wang Yun’s arm.

Wang Yun knelt on the ground with a bang. Her tears kept falling to the ground, but her voice was calm without any fluctuation. “Senior Pei, please don’t stop me. 1 don’t want to drag my husband down again!”

Bai Yuying, Mu Jin, Yin Honglian, and Qiuying looked at Wang Yun silently and didn’t say anything to stop her. They felt as terrible as Wang Yun at this moment. Although they didn’t want to die as much as she did, the guilt and self-blame were heavy.

They even wanted to slap themselves. After all, it had always been their husband who shielded them from the wind and rain. However, they had never fulfilled their duty as Dao companions. They had not really understood their husband, Shen Ping, and experienced the difficulty of cultivation.

Yu Yan also did not say a word. She turned around with a blank face and staggered out of the quiet room. The moment she stepped through the door, the cold night wind blew against her. Her black hair fluttered in the wind. She looked up at the stars in the sky as a line of tears silently slid down her face.

At this moment, it was as if she had returned to Cloud Mountain Parlour, to that hopeless mine. Under this sea of stars, she had once wanted to die, but in the end, because of the warmth Shen Ping gave her in the darkness, her path of cultivation was rekindled.

Now, nearly twenty years of cold and heat had passed. Shen Ping remained unchanged. He was still the timid cultivator who silently supported all the people behind him. However, Yu Yan no longer seemed to be the female cultivator who was like a walking corpse back then. She had become greedy, greedy to obtain more care from her husband. It was also because of this greed that she cared more about her feelings and ignored the pressure her husband was under.

She walked to the center of the courtyard. The wind grew stronger. Yu Yan looked at the door of the main quiet room in a daze. She did not blame herself or feel guilty. She was only examining her heart. She did not know when it started, but that affection was no longer pure. It was calculative, doubtful, and hesitant.

She wondered if Shen Ping cared more about her than others. She wondered if Shen Ping cared more about her and if she was hesitating about giving her all. She suppressed all of this in her heart. But only at this moment did Yu Yan understand that all her distracting thoughts were laughable and meaningless in front of her husband’s silent pressure.

The wind howled, it blew away the tears at the corners of her eyes. Yu Yan suddenly walked into the main quiet room. Seeing Shen Ping sitting cross-legged on the futon and studying the scripture, she stood quietly at the door.

Time passed slowly. The night gradually deepened. The stars in the sky shine even brighter. Shen Ping retracted his gaze from the scripture and noticed Yu Yan. Before he could speak, Yu Yan smiled and went forward. She said softly, “Husband, I want to return to Yue Kingdom.”

Shen Ping asked without thinking, “When?”

“Now.”

Shen Ping was stunned and could not help but stare at Yu Yan. After confirming that she was serious, he did not ask for the reason and nodded in agreement. “Okay.”

A moment later, Pei Huoyu controlled the flying dharma treasure and quickly headed in the direction of the twelve countries of the Northern Rock Marsh Region under the starry night sky. Only she, Shen Ping, and Yu Yan were on the dharma treasure.

On the other hand, the large flying ship of the True Treasure Pavilion only needed more than half a day to travel from the Linhai Immortal City to the Yue Kingdom. However, flying dharma treasures needed two days, and this was under the situation of constantly activating dharma treasures.

Swoosh.

The rays of light cut through the sky. It was so fast that no tribulation cultivator dared to attack them when they passed through the dangerous area. Two days later, they had arrived at the border of the 12 countries. The dharma treasure traveled southwest for another four hours before stopping at a remote desolate mountain range.

“Perfected Pei, just wait here.”

The two of them arrived at a hill not long after riding the Cloud Shuttle.

Yu Yan stopped in front of a mound on the hill. Shen Ping stood behind her silently.

“Husband, this is my master’s tomb. I’ve grown up with my master since 1 was young. All my cultivation, life, spells, and techniques were learned from my master. In my heart, my master is like my biological parents.”

Yu Yan’s voice was soft. With a smile on her lips, she turned around and looked at Shen Ping. “I brought you here this time because I want to hold a wedding in front of Master according to the customs of mortals in Yue Kingdom.”

Shen Ping stared into Yu Yan’s eyes. Her pupils were clear and bright. He seemed to understand at once and nodded. “Okay.”

There was no red candle. There was no red veil. There was no red bed either. Only the white snake puppet was placed in the mountain. The two of them first bowed to the sky, then to the ground, and lastly, to the parents.

After bowing, Yu Yan turned to face Shen Ping. “I, Yu Yan, am willing to form a good relationship with Shen Ping. This love can be witnessed by the heavens and earth, and the sun and moon can be seen!” Her voice echoed. There were no more flaws in her heart.

Shen Ping met that pure gaze and could not help but take a deep breath. “1, Shen Ping…”

With that, they both got up. Yu Yan looked at the hill and resolutely followed Shen Ping away without looking back. The white snake puppet on the hill seemed to smile. There seemed to be a seven-colored light shining from the back where the smile reached..
