Chapter 875: The Past

Chapter 875: The Past

After Han Jue entered the Daoist temple, he saw that Xing Hongxuan was still sitting in meditation to Cultivate.

Qing Luaner was extremely nervous, but the girl Han Qinger did not show any fear and stared straight at Xing Hongxuan.

Xing Hongxuan opened her eyes, saw the three of them arrive, and immediately stood up to welcome them.

She smiled and said, "This must be sister Qing Luaner, right?"

A year ago, Han Jue had already sent her a voice transmission to inform her of this matter, so she had been prepared for a long time.

Seeing the smile on her Face, Qing Luaner's nervousness eased significantly.

The two women began to converse enthusiastically.

Xing Hongxuan looked at Han Qinger behind Han Jue and smiled, "Qinger, why don't you call her Big Mother?"

Han Qinger tilted her head and asked curiously, "What is a Big Mother? Isn't there only one mother?"

Big Mother? Han Jue laughed to himself.

Xing Hongxuan picked up Han Qinger and smiled, "Your mother and I are both your father's wives, so I am equivalent to your mother."

Qing Luaner was secretly puzzled.

Big Mother? Was Xing Hongxuan's seniority higher than hers?

She suddenly remembered something.

Before meeting her, Han Jue's identity was very mysterious. Could it be that Xing Hongxuan had been with him for a long time?

It was highly likely.

Qing Luaner did not ask out loud; there would be plenty of opportunities in the future.

She felt no jealousy toward Xing Hongxuan because Xing Hongxuan's attitude was very warm, and she took the initiative to chat with her daughter, giving her a lot of Face.

They chatted for a long time.

Qing Luaner asked curiously, "Where is your son? Didn't my husband say you also have a child?"

Xing Hongxuan touched her lower abdomen and smiled, "He is here, not yet born."

Qing Luaner was dumbfounded.

Not yet born? She couldn't help but look at Han Jue.

Han Jue said, "This child is somewhat special. He has been gestating for a very long time and still hasn't been born. However, based on the gestation time, he should indeed be Qinger's older brother."

"Ah? My older brother? He is still in the stomach? Shouldn't he be a younger brother then? I want to be the older sister, I want to be the older sister!"

Han Qinger shook her head and shouted. She reached out to touch Xing Hongxuan's abdomen, her Face full of wonder.

Xing Hongxuan smiled, "Alright, you can be the older sister. But to be an older sister, you have to take care of your younger brother and let him have his way in everything. If he is the older brother, he will have to take care of you and let you have your way in everything. Do you want to be the older sister or the younger sister?"

Han Qinger tilted her head, thought for a moment, and said, "Then I think I'll be the younger sister."

Qing Luaner couldn't help but laugh.

Xing Hongxuan flicked Han Qinger's small nose and smiled, "It seems our Qinger is very smart."

"Of course, I am the smartest!" Han Qinger laughed proudly.

Han Jue stood to the side, watching them play happily with a smile.

An hour later, they left, and Han Jue brought the mother and daughter to Xuan Qingjun's Daoist temple.

Xuan Qingjun was also his Dao Companion, and the two had long since consummated their relationship. A year ago, he had also told her about this.

Unlike Xing Hongxuan, Xuan Qingjun was already waiting in the temple and was not Cultivating.

Although Xuan Qingjun was not as lively as Xing Hongxuan, she still made Qing Luaner feel close to her, and she even gave Qing Luaner a Magic Treasure.

However, as they were parting, Han Jue felt Xuan Qingjun's meaningful gaze.

Xuan Qingjun also wanted a child.

She had been brushed off by Han Jue before, but now that she saw Han Qinger, she naturally had thoughts in her heart.

Han Jue sent a voice transmission to soothe her, then left with Qing Luaner and her daughter. He quietly replaced his Physical Body with his will and led his wife and daughter into the Immortal Realm.

The three of them arrived in a Human Race town, and looking at the passersby, Qing Luaner felt a moment of trance.

It had been too long.

The scene before her gave her an urge to cry.

Five million years had passed; those old friends and relatives had long since turned to dust.

Han Qinger was very excited, chattering and shouting non-stop.

Han Jue took them around to explore.

The Immortal Realm was vast, and Han Jue planned to travel through the Immortal Realm while waiting for Han Qinger to grow up.

A year later, they returned to the city where they used to live, but it was now desolate, with crisscrossing mountains and overgrown weeds everywhere.

Qing Luaner stood on a cliff, lost in thought for a long time.

Han Qinger flew back and forth in the woods and called for Han Jue to chase her, but Han Jue ignored her.

Han Jue came to Qing Luaner's side and said meaningfully, "Time is just like this. One day, you will get used to it."

Qing Luaner turned to look at him and asked, "So when you faced me back then, were you also very calm?"

Han Jue answered calmly, "That's right."

"Hmph, then why did you lie to me, saying you only encountered your immortal destiny after I died?"

"Then do you want to hear my story? Anyway, I still have to accompany you for several decades, which is enough time for me to tell it slowly."

"Alright!"

Qing Luaner swept away her low mood, and her eyes lit up.

Han Jue looked toward the horizon and said, "I was born in a Mortal Realm beneath the Immortal Realm. My parents were servants in the outer Sect's medicinal garden. When I was young, they fled the garden, leaving me alone there…"

Qing Luaner frowned as she listened, not expecting Han Jue's background to be so miserable.

Han Jue told his past in detail, only omitting the System, the Hidden Sect, and the name of the Divine Might Heavenly Sage.

Time ticked by.

Dusk descended.

Han Qinger came behind the two of them, looking aggrieved.

She had been gone for half a day, yet her parents hadn't looked for her.

Han Jue took her small hand and continued talking to Qing Luaner as they walked.

Qing Luaner seemed to be listening to a story, so engrossed that she didn't even care about her daughter.

A few days later, Han Jue finally finished speaking.

Qing Luaner was filled with emotion.

"I didn't expect you to have so many rough experiences before you met me."

Qing Luaner looked at Han Jue, her eyes filled with tenderness.

This man was always so calm, facing all the hardships of time alone, yet he had never complained of bitterness or exhaustion.

She suddenly felt very ashamed.

Han Jue had gone to great lengths to resurrect her and let her Cultivate, yet she had been unable to be patient.

You have to know that the Han Jue of the past had no one to protect him, unlike her now, who only needed to Cultivate and didn't have to worry about anything.

"Dad! Mom! Are you done talking? Qinger is bored to death!"

Seeing that the two were finally silent, Han Qinger immediately threw a tantrum and shouted in dissatisfaction.

During these days, she spent most of her time sleeping. There was no help for it; she couldn't understand her parents' words at all, and she wasn't interested either.

Han Jue pinched her cheeks and smiled, "Qinger, how about I take you to see your niece?"

"Niece? What is a niece?"

"It is your older brother's daughter."

"Ah? I want to go! Take me there quickly!"

Han Qinger became excited immediately.

Qing Luaner asked in surprise, "Tuo'er has a daughter? And she is still alive?"

Han Jue smiled, "That brat is just like me, completely ignoring his daughter. If I hadn't helped arrange things, your granddaughter would have died long ago. By the way, you originally had a grandson, but he died millions of years ago."

Upon hearing this, Qing Luaner couldn't help but frown.

Han Jue didn't waste any words and brought the mother and daughter to the Underworld.

They went directly to Yang Tiandong's Yama Palace.

Yang Tiandong was Cultivating. The palace was desolate, without a single ghost official.

"Dad, who is he? He looks so scary!"

Han Qinger's voice startled Yang Tiandong awake. When Yang Tiandong saw Han Jue, he was instantly stunned, his mind going blank.

"Mas… Master…"
