Chapter 1382: Extra: After Returning_3
Finally, all kinds of dishes and meats were brought out, as everyone, young and old, gathered around the table.
Li Fan, Yun Xi, Nan Feng, Zi Ling, Long Zixuan, Lu Rang, Dugu Yuqing, Qing Chen, Jiang Li, Wu Dade, Su Baiqian, Gong Ya, Xinning, Jiang Xue, all sat around a big table.
“Give it a try, these ingredients are exceptionally fresh.”
Li Fan smiled as he placed some meat into Yun Xi’s bowl.
Yun Xi picked up a piece of braised pork, took a gentle bite, her beautiful eyes showing a look of enjoyment, and said:
“It’s so delicious, so delicious!”
The other disciples also started eating.
Qing Chen held a large pork knuckle in each hand, gnawing away, while Long Zixuan ate fish. Wu Dade grabbed a large beef bone, gnawed on it, and then tossed it to the Big Black Dog. Zi Ling was happily eating spicy beef tendon…
Everything felt just like yesterday.
Not a single thing seemed different.
“This meat is more flavorful than the Supreme’s…”
“What’s the Supreme compared to this, even the laws can’t taste this good… truly wonder where to get such meat.”
As they ate, they discussed.
…
Night fell.
This night, the small village, which had been silent for many years, was vibrant with life. Bonfires were lit everywhere, and by the fires, everyone shared stories.
Uncle Zhang was planning how to farm the land, what crops to grow in the first season for the best yield. Second Elder was thinking about what wood to use for his cane. Auntie Wang asked Li Fan to open a bigger vegetable garden for her. Wang Xiao’er mentioned his slingshot was broken and wanted Li Fan to make him a new one…
No one mentioned the battles of old, the glorious or painful past, as if they all were a dream.
No need to dwell, no need to reminisce.
Everyone was drinking, heavily, cup after cup.
“Master, today’s meat was so fragrant, where can we get more of these ingredients?”
Wu Dade held a roasted golden lamb leg, eating and drinking, already a bit drunk, asked Li Fan.
Li Fan smiled and said:
“There won’t be any more, it’s all finished.”
“Oh… can’t get any…” Wu Dade murmured before falling drunkenly asleep.
“Nonsense, why can’t you? Little Li left plenty to be raised, once they’re fattened up you can eat every day!”
Second Elder indeed smiled and said:
“Little Li, come, drink!”
Li Fan raised his cup and drank with Second Elder.
…
Finally, the night grew late.
The bonfires dwindled.
The villagers had already dispersed.
And the disciples, almost all were drunk.
Li Fan couldn’t help but shake his head, this… another round of carrying people.
Immediately, he carried Nan Feng, Zi Ling, Gong Ya, Su Baiqian, Xinning, Jiang Xue back, then returned for Wu Dade and the others.
“Great Demon King, let me help you…”
Yun Xi’s face turned a rosy red from drinking, trying hard to help Li Fan with the task.
Finally, all disciples were carried back.
“Li Fan… I still want to drink…”
Yun Xi smiled at Li Fan, her smile was charming, and said:
“I miss you…”
She fell over, asleep.
Li Fan gently held her.
Under the Peach Tree, he held Yun Xi, as if all time had come to a standstill.
After a long time, he carried Yun Xi back into the house.
…
In the small courtyard.
In the chicken coop, an egg suddenly cracked open, and a ray of light turned into an old hen.
In the pond, a koi fish leapt out forcefully.
“The True Dragon has returned!!”
The True Dragon shouted, its dragon shadow echoed to the skies!
“Fool of the Dragon Clan, tone it down, or else if you disturb the master, you’ll be fish tomorrow!”
The old hen said coldly.
Suddenly, a group of True Dragons were stunned, then immediately dove into the water, not moving again.
“Peach Tree… your divine skills have recovered, can you look over the heavens?”
The old hen spoke to the Peach Tree.
The Peach Tree’s elegant voice rang out, its branches hanging low, saying:
“There are no more heavens, only one universe, billions of stars, the Myriad Realms have returned to a common beginning.”
“This is the future, this is the Pure Land belonging to life.”
In her branches, a scene was reflected.
It was an immense starry sky, filled with twinkling stars, like countless blinking eyes, amidst the starry multitude, there were many strange stars, mostly blue, radiating the breath of life.
A certain blue star was abnormally bright.
“The master returned from here, stabilized everything, we fled through the river of time, arrived in this era, and the master has returned.”
The Peach Tree spoke softly, revealing it all.
