Chapter 877: Returning to Old Haunts, The Legend of the Immortal
"Father, how old is Han Xinyuan?"
"Father, where is my brother?"
"Father, I want to find my brother!"
"Father…"
Above the clouds, Han Jue listened, feeling annoyed. He really wanted to toss this girl down.
Qing Luaner saw what Han Jue was thinking and smiled, saying, "If you keep making a fuss, your father will throw you down."
Han Qinger laughed triumphantly, "I'm not afraid, I can fly."
Han Jue glared at her, refusing to mention Han Tuo, which made Han Qinger's eyes turn red with frustration.
Afterwards, Han Jue traveled through the Immortal Realm with his wife and daughter.
In the blink of an eye, ten years passed.
Han Qinger had grown into a young maiden in the prime of her youth, dressed in beautiful red robes with her long hair tied back. Her brows were radiant, and as she walked closely with Qing Luaner, they didn't look like mother and daughter, but more like sisters.
Han Jue stood in front of the two women, his gaze fixed on the horizon.
"Father, where are we going next?" Han Qinger asked, her eyes filled with anticipation.
From childhood to the present, she had lived very happily without any worries. Every day she could see new things, and traveling didn't require any physical exertion; it was incredibly relaxed.
Han Jue said, "We are going to the Mortal Realm. This is the last trip. After this, we will leave the Immortal Realm and return home. It will be difficult for you to come out again in the future, so you must Cultivate properly."
Han Qinger pouted and said, "Cultivate then, I will. My Aptitude is so amazing, I'll surprise you when the time comes."
Over these years, Han Qinger had also learned about the cultivation situation in the Immortal Realm. After comparing, she discovered her Aptitude was extremely strong, so she also held expectations for cultivation.
Qing Luaner smiled and said, "Qinger's Aptitude is indeed good. Thinking back, your brother didn't have your Aptitude, but even with mediocre Aptitude, he still resolutely left on his own to seek the Immortal's destiny."
The moment Han Tuo was mentioned, Han Qinger became interested and asked, "Mother, what is my eldest brother's cultivation level now? Didn't you say he has lived for five million years? Is he a Grand Unity Golden Immortal?"
In the Immortal Realm, there were many beings who had lived for five million years but could not Breakthrough to the God Realm. Her mother was only at the God Realm. The reason she thought Han Tuo was stronger was that she had always been full of anticipation for that brother she had never met, and even held a trace of worship.
Qing Luaner shook her head and laughed. She glanced at Han Jue, and seeing that he didn't want to talk about it, she could only say, "Perhaps so."
Han Jue had instructed her not to let Han Qinger know about Realms above the Saint, to avoid her becoming lazy.
Qing Luaner could understand this.
At least after she learned that Han Jue had surpassed the Free and Unfettered Saint, she felt it didn't matter whether she Cultivated or not, since she couldn't catch up to Han Jue anyway.
As long as she stayed by Han Jue's side, she would not be in danger, nor would she cause trouble for Han Jue.
Han Qinger pouted and said, "If I can't see my eldest brother, then I'll see my second brother. Father, before we go home, can we go see my second brother? Perhaps he has already been born."
Han Jue replied without turning his head, "Naturally, we will go back to see him, but your second brother is still a long way from being born."
"Why hasn't he been born after such a long time? Could it be that Big Sister isn't human, but of the Yao Race?"
"That is naturally not the case; it is just that your second brother's Aptitude is high."
"High Aptitude?"
Han Qinger's eyes lit up.
Han Jue hummed, "Don't ask anymore."
He waved his right sleeve, and immediately, the three of them arrived at the Reroll World.
Below them were the Eighteen Peaks of the original Yuqing Sacred Sect, though the mountain landscape had long since changed.
Han Qinger asked curiously, "What place is this? Why is there no one here?"
Qing Luaner also looked at Han Jue in confusion.
Han Jue said, "This is the place where your father was born."
Hearing this, both Qing Luaner and Han Qinger became interested.
The three landed, and Han Jue walked in front, his thoughts returning to five million years ago.
Qing Luaner and Han Qinger looked around, neither disturbing Han Jue.
Han Jue came to a cliff and gazed at the mountains. The grand appearance of the former Yuqing Sacred Sect appeared before his eyes, with an endless stream of Disciples traversing the mountains. Han Jue thought of Elder Tie, Li Qingzi, and True Person Jiuding.
Everything had become the past, and old friends had long since entered Reincarnation.
"Father, there is someone on the mountain opposite!"
Han Qinger suddenly pointed forward and exclaimed.
Following her gaze, there was a person chopping trees in the mountain forest opposite.
There was no sign of human life for ten thousand miles, so the appearance of a woodcutter was indeed strange, but this could not attract Han Jue's attention.
Han Qinger rolled her eyes, leaped, and flew to the opposite mountain forest.
Qing Luaner did not stop her; that woodcutter had no cultivation, so even if he were a bad person, he could not harm her daughter.
Han Qinger landed behind the woodcutter and gave a shout, startling the woodcutter so much that he shivered all over. He turned around, stumbled, and fell to the ground. The axe in his hand slipped, accidentally cutting his palm, and blood instantly spilled out.
The woodcutter frowned in pain.
Han Qinger said flustered, "Sorry…"
She noticed that this woodcutter was also young, looking to be only in his early twenties.
The woodcutter picked up the axe and asked vigilantly, "Who are you? A monster?"
So beautiful and wearing red robes, she must be a female monster!
The woodcutter's face turned pale, and cold sweat streamed down.
Monsters eat people!
Han Qinger pouted, "I am not a monster, I am an Immortal!"
She waved her right hand, and the wound in the woodcutter's palm instantly healed.
The woodcutter stood up and ran.
Han Qinger raised her hand and used spiritual power to move him back.
"Why are you running? I am really not a monster. I came to find you to ask why you are the only person nearby?" Han Qinger said, annoyed.
The woodcutter said tremblingly, "I live nearby, there really are no other people."
Han Qinger asked in surprise, "You are so timid, yet you dare to live here alone?"
The woodcutter gritted his teeth and did not answer.
He began racking his brains to think of a way to escape.
"Why did you come here?" Han Qinger asked.
She added, "Answer honestly, and I won't make things difficult for you. I can even teach you the method of Cultivating to become an Immortal."
Hearing this, the woodcutter's eyes lit up.
He hurriedly said, "It is rumored that there is a Legacy left behind by an Immortal in this area. Every thousand years, someone obtains an Immortal's Cultivation Technique from here and becomes famous throughout the world. I just wanted to come and try. I have been here for more than half a year and have not found it yet."
"Then why are you chopping trees?"
"To make a fire. There are many wild beasts at night. Without fire, I will die."
"Oh."
Han Qinger was seeing a real Mortal for the first time, and she was full of interest, beginning to ask all sorts of questions.
The woodcutter answered everything he knew.
Han Qinger also took the opportunity to learn about his background.
The woodcutter's village had been slaughtered by demonic cultivators, and everyone had been refined into dried corpse Puppets. He had escaped by luck. He had always wanted to take revenge. Since he was ten years old, he had been searching everywhere for an Immortal's destiny, but unfortunately, he had no Spiritual Root Aptitude, so no Sect would accept him. He could only come to pursue the ethereal legend of the Immortal.
After hearing this, Han Qinger felt unbearable in her heart. Just imagining it from the woodcutter's perspective made her feel desperate.
"How about I help you take revenge?" Han Qinger asked.
The woodcutter's eyes lit up, but then he shook his head, "No, I want to take revenge myself. Please teach me the method of cultivation instead."
Han Qinger showed a helpless expression and spread her hands, "Actually, I don't understand the method of cultivation, but I can ask my father."
Having lived for so long, she had never formally Cultivated; she relied on innate instinct.
The woodcutter immediately knelt down, kowtowed to Han Qinger, and said, "Thank you, Immortal! As long as your father is willing to teach me the method of cultivation, I am willing to be a slave forever and serve you!"
