Along the way, Su Yun and Chen Jie were not in a hurry to rush.
It would take at least four to five days to get from the Heavenly Cauldron to the Cangluan Mountain. This was exactly what Zhao Guofeng wanted. This also added more time for the two of them to interact.
Although Zhao Guofeng wanted to give Su Yun some personal space, the road surveillance had been following up on the vehicle’s information ever since the car set off. After all, the Dao Ancestor was too important to Earth. Although there was nothing in this world that could threaten Su Yun, Zhao Guofeng was still worried.
Along the way, when the two of them walked and stopped and encountered some beautiful places, they would tacitly stop the car.
Su Yun looked at the scenery and did not notice that Chen Jie was looking at him most of the time. In fact, to Chen Jie, this was like a dream. She was very worried that she would wake up from this dream. After a few years, Chen Jie stood beside Su Yun again. She had seen this day countless times in her dreams.
The two of them strolled along the beach under the setting sun and stopped under the rising mountains. They sat quietly in front of the stream and chatted. They walked hand in hand in the busy city.
Currently, most of the building was filled with the faces of foreigners. All the people of Great Xia were cultivating in various training halls. These foreigners, on the other hand, were responsible for the economic stability of the building and the important development of industry and agriculture.
If this were in the past, it would definitely not have happened. As a result, when the two of them stepped into the busy city, it was as if they had come to a foreign country. The moment they saw Su Yun, the busy foreigners stopped in their tracks and looked over in surprise.
The person they could only see through the screen had actually appeared in front of them. However, these foreigners did not approach. Of course, it was also because Zhao Guofeng had given the order in advance.
Unless the Dao Ancestor took the initiative to chat, no one could disturb him. Therefore, these foreigners only watched from afar as the two of them gradually left. Their shadows stretched out under the setting sun, and the distance between them was gradually closing.
On the way to Cangluan Mountain, Chen Jie wanted to speak a few times, but she swallowed her words. She really did not know how to mention the matter Zhao Guofeng mentioned, so she always felt a little awkward. When she was by Su Yun’s side, she would always approach him intentionally or unintentionally.
When the two of them were leaning against each other, Su Yun did not leave. This made Chen Jie’s heart warm. Just like that, a few days later, the two of them finally arrived at the foot of the Cangluan Mountain. This place carried the memories of the two of them.
Cangluan Mountain had long been repaired. The last time they left, this place was still filled with devastation. Now, it has long changed. The underground forest that had trapped Su Yun and Chen Jie had already been opened up and was in the development stage. If not for this crisis, this place might have long become a famous scenic spot. There would have been tourists coming and going, and it would not be as cold as now.
However, this coldness did not affect their mood. As they strolled through the forest, their minds were filled with memories of the past.
“Do you still remember when we were trapped underground? At that time, you kept practicing your saber. Sometimes, I really don’t understand. It was also later that I understood that you were only thinking about bringing me out of here.”
Chen Jie’s words entered Su Yun’s ears, making him smile and nod. “At that time, the two of us were at our wits’ end. I didn’t want to watch you die in the dark underground. I could only rely on the wooden saber in my hand. No matter what, the final outcome was good. I successfully brought you out.”
As the two of them spoke, they followed the passageway and arrived at the underground forest. Everything here was still the same as when they left. Even the simple tent they had set up previously was still there. There were still traces of life on both sides of the underground river.
Su Yun quickly renovated the tent. The two of them sat in the narrow tent. It was so quiet that even the sound of breathing could be heard. As Su Yun sat cross-legged, Chen Jie walked into the forest like before. A moment later, she brought out some fruits.
When Su Yun opened his eyes again, it was as if he had instantly returned to that time. He looked at Chen Jie squatting by the river and washing fruits. This scene was a little familiar. There was no day or night here. Only the newly opened passageway could have some light source. When the sky outside gradually darkened, there was even less light in the underground forest.
Su Yun easily lit a bonfire. The two of them sat by the bonfire and discussed what had happened here in the past. In the past few days of interaction, the distance between the two of them was getting closer.
Looking at Su Yun, who was speaking in front of her, Chen Jie’s ears seemed to have become even quieter. She looked deeply at Su Yun. She did not know where she got the courage, but Chen Jie suddenly kissed Su Yun on the lips.
Perhaps even Chen Jie could not understand where she got her courage from. She lowered her head with a red face. When she looked up again, she met Su Yun’s deep eyes.
