Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 1432: The Return Journey

Everyone laughed, the disciples in the Qi Refinement Realm were very envious, wishing they could achieve Foundation Establishment during the journey home like that person. They wanted it too, but hadn’t felt that sensation yet.

The cultivators representing Xuantian Sect lived up to expectations, winning the competition beautifully.

Yu Huping was deeply gratified. It’s good this way. Actually, he wanted to strive more, but the ancestor disagreed, implying that it was best to maintain the status quo.

The journey was exceptionally calm, and after half a month, they arrived at the entrance to the secret realm. This secret realm belonged to the Xuantian Sect, meant for the participation of the sect’s Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

Su Yuanyuan wouldn’t have participated if it weren’t for her daughter’s need for experience.

The mother and daughter were here together. Tan Shaoting, of course, wouldn’t leave.

This time, the Nascent Soul Cultivator left behind was Feng Yiyun, along with three others at the Golden Core level.

Liu Xiaozhu and Sun Qizheng were eager to return to advance to the next level.

Moreover, Liu Xiaozhu was worried about Xu Ying, estimating that she was due for childbirth.

The specially made Sound Transmission Talisman reached Liu Xiaozhu’s hand. Upon hearing it, he just smiled foolishly. He had a son now.

Even as cultivators, they couldn’t change the deeply rooted traditional beliefs that men should continue the family line.

Sun Qizheng congratulated him.

"You can look for someone too. We are of similar age, I have children now, you should have some too."

Sun Qizheng laughed and shook his head, "I haven’t found anyone suitable."

He once liked Liu Yan Yue, but she chose Jia Chongxin, and until now he hasn’t found another female cultivator he likes.

Though Sun Qizheng said this, he still stood on the deck at night looking at the stars, feeling quite lonely at times.

Liu Yan Yue walked out and saw Sun Qizheng, completely unaware that he once liked her, so she felt no discomfort.

"Junior Master Sun, sorry for the disturbance." Liu Yan Yue said and was about to leave.

"Wait a moment."

"Do you have any instructions, Junior Master Sun?"

"You are now separated from Jia Chongxin."

Liu Yan Yue was a bit flustered by the question but still responded, "Yes."

"Why?"

"Because I fear being abandoned." Liu Yan Yue had broadened her perspective since coming out this time, and now she ranked in the top thirty on the Foundation Establishment leaderboard.

Mentioning senior brother didn’t hurt as much anymore.

"Then how about you and me?"

Liu Yan Yue thought she heard wrong; although a cultivator, she was also a woman, and cared about a woman’s chastity.

"Junior Master Sun, you know my circumstances."

Sun Qizheng nodded, "I know."

"You’re not joking, are you?"

"Why would I joke about such a thing? I’ll give you time for a cup of tea to consider,

I can assure you, I won’t have anyone else."

Liu Yan Yue’s heart was a storm. Sun Qizheng was so excellent, everyone in the sect knew it; if not for the recent ranking match, he likely would have been a Nascent Soul Cultivator by now.

She quickly analyzed in her mind. At her age, she no longer had the youthful romantic illusions; frankly, it was more realistic.

"Junior Master Sun, I may not be able to bear children."

Sun Qizheng laughed, "It’d be nice if you could, but it doesn’t matter if you can’t. You should focus on cultivation, because in the future, it will be us two walking this path together."

"Junior Master Sun, you won’t resent me later, will you?"

"I promise I won’t."

"Alright, but Junior Master Sun, I still have something to say. In the future, if I wish to leave, you must agree."

"Okay."

"Then I agree."

Sun Qizheng laughed, came to Liu Yan Yue’s side, and held her hand.

The two were quite compatible together, and they spent more than half a month on the Flying Boat in a romantic and cozy way.

Upon returning to the sect, they were warmly welcomed by everyone. This was to celebrate heroes returning home.

The commendation ceremony would be held after the Foundation Establishment Stage disciples returned from the secret realm.

Everyone gained something from their outings. Sun Qizheng gave Liu Yan Yue the Array Key to his peak.

"I hope you move over, and I’m going to prepare to reach Nascent Soul upon returning. Cultivating at my place would be good for you."

Liu Yan Yue smiled and nodded. Her mindset had completely changed by now.

"Alright, I’ll go pack my things and report to the Deacon Office."

"Okay, I’ll send a message over there. You arrange things yourself, make your own decisions."

"You must succeed in reaching Nascent Soul."

Sun Qizheng smiled and nodded, "Alright. I won’t make you wait too long."

After parting, Liu Yan Yue went back to find her master.

She reported the gains from her recent outing.

Hundred Spirits True Monarch smiled and nodded, "Not bad, very good."

"Master, Sun Qizheng and I are together now, I request permission to move over."

Hundred Spirits True Monarch paused for a moment. He knew about the situation between his first and second disciples, and was surprised that his second disciple had found a new partner upon returning?

"Alright, go ahead. Sun Qizheng is a good person."

"Thank you, Master."

Jia Chongxin happened to enter and heard these words. Looking at the little junior sister who was now smiling brightly, she truly seemed different.

Until now, he didn’t know why the junior sister left him; if it was just because of those few female disciples, it seemed unnecessary.

Liu Yan Yue saw Jia Chongxin and felt no discomfort like she had before leaving. She stood up and greeted him with a smile.

"Master, I’m leaving."

"Go ahead. Don’t neglect your cultivation."

"Yes."

Hundred Spirits True Monarch looked at his eldest disciple’s distracted demeanor and sighed inwardly. This was a matter for the younger generation; as an elder, he wouldn’t get involved.

Jia Chongxin said a word to his master and then chased after.

The Array Key to his junior sister’s cave was no longer in his possession, so he could only knock at the array outside.

Liu Yan Yue was in the middle of packing her belongings. Having lived here for decades, she was reluctant to say goodbye to the familiar environment. But as long as her master was around, this would still be her home.

Hearing the knocking at the array, she saw senior brother, quickly tidied up her things, and exited the cave.

"Senior Brother."

"Yanyue, I thought we could reconcile upon your return."

Liu Yan Yue smiled, with a sense of release. Senior brother was quite good, but she had already moved on.

"Senior Brother, let it go, I have already moved on."

"Why?"

Watching her senior brother’s persistent gaze, Liu Yan Yue decided to tell him.

"Senior Brother, it’s because of my insecurities, because of the female disciples around you, and because I fear becoming the one abandoned. Most importantly, it’s because you no longer have feelings for me."

Jia Chongxin couldn’t believe what he was hearing. "Yanyue, it’s definitely not as you say, you know me."

Liu Yan Yue nodded, "I know. I know you would never abandon me, but I fear I’ve changed, I’m no longer the carefree Liu Yan Yue I once was. I fear being blinded by jealousy and doing something unforgivable.

That wouldn’t be the Liu Yan Yue of before."
