Chapter 1011: Old man had romantic debts in his youth

The woman kept her gaze fixed on Chen Xun, seemingly unwilling to miss any change in his expression.

Chen Xun's demeanor became noticeably unnatural. The woman before him was none other than Yuxuan, but now her aura had grown incredibly powerful, even more so than before.

It seemed she had broken through to the Mahayana Realm.

She was a disciple of an immortal, and had even met her master, Yaoqin, during the Battle of the Milky Way, seemingly overshadowing Ke Ding, with a unique personality...

Chen Xun's unnatural expression flickered and disappeared. He looked on calmly and smiled, "It's been years, Yuxuan, and you're still as radiant as ever..."

"Spare me the flattery," Yuxuan interrupted Chen Xun, her eyes narrowing slightly. "Rumor has it that you're a man of deep emotions and promises. It seems the world is truly foolish, completely deceived by you."

Her voice was icy. Back in the Mengmu Sea Region, he had promised to visit her at the Yao Terrace Immortal Palace.

Due to the chaos of the Shi Rong Immortal, she understood him and even helped him clean up many messes without making a fuss.

Later, she waited for him at the Mo family, thinking he would come when he returned to the Wild Heaven Region. It was on the way, after all. There was no need for him to travel millions of miles to find her. Would the Yao Terrace Immortal Palace dare to stop the Dao Ancestor of the Five Elements, who dominated the grand world?!

Even her master had to be polite when meeting him. There was no reason for him not to come!

Twice now... she had waited patiently in the Immortal Palace, quietly keeping an eye on the news from the Five Aggregates Sect, waiting for him to be less busy so he could visit the Yao Terrace Immortal Palace.

Who knew he had already taken the Dao medicine child down the mountain, and even when traveling in the Kingdom Qian, he didn't come to see her!

She had never been deceived by a man like this before. Chen Xun was undoubtedly the first to make the Yuxuan Venerable of the Yao Terrace Immortal Palace run in circles.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Wuhen swallowed his saliva secretly, cautiously glancing at his father...

Oh no, could it be that his father had some romantic debts from his youth? Of course, he chose his mother, not this fairy sister.

He understood a lot now, having attended many weddings and banquets.

Xiao Wuhen quietly watched his father. This fairy sister was so fierce... standing there, she scared people into silence.

Yet Chen Xun remained as steady as a mountain, smiling, "I took the child down the mountain for a look around. I was definitely planning to come, just didn't expect you to come in person..."

Yuxuan snorted coldly. She had come with a belly full of anger, having thought of countless scolding words.

But standing in front of that man, it all turned into a cold snort, and her anger seemed to dissipate.

"Yuxuan, shall we take a walk outside the city?"

Chen Xun glanced around. There were many onlookers, and some men were secretly drooling over Yuxuan. "This isn't a good place to talk."

However, Yuxuan didn't respond. Instead, she looked at Xiao Wuhen and suddenly asked, "What's this child's name?"

"Sister, my name is Qian Wuhen," Xiao Wuhen said timidly, feeling fear for the first time towards an outsider. She was much fiercer than the aunts from the neighboring villages.

A slight smile appeared at the corner of Yuxuan's mouth. "It seems he took his mother's surname, not yours."

"Indeed," Chen Xun nodded lightly.

Yuxuan naturally knew about Xiao Wuhen's background. The incident had caused quite a stir in the Ultimate Emperor Heaven, as the fall of a Tribulation Crossing Venerable was a monumental event anywhere.

This child was born of Dao medicine, and she had consulted her master. With a short lifespan, cultivating immortality could lead to a path of no return, an absolute evil medicine... even Foundation Establishment would bring heavenly punishment!

She had also consulted the ancient elders of the Immortal Palace and even questioned the spirit of the Dao medicine in the palace. Could this be resolved?

But they all shook their heads. It was nurtured through evil methods and could not walk the path to immortality. If it could be resolved, the order of heaven and earth and all beings would have long been in chaos.

The grand world’s immortal path had developed over countless years, and all sorts of special situations had occurred.

This postnatal Dao medicine could only be consumed when formed, not cultivated, nor regarded as a living being, an absolute failure, only the Immortal Spirit Clan could have such an evil creation.

Unless the Chaos Immortal Spirit List recognized this spirit's heavenly aura, otherwise, it could not defy fate.

Thinking of this, Yuxuan looked deeply at Chen Xun.

As the founder of the Forbidden Immortal Path, Chen Xun surely knew about Xiao Wuhen's constitution.

But now it seemed Chen Xun was clearly raising this Dao medicine as his own child, though it would only lead to more sorrow. She couldn't fathom what Chen Xun was truly thinking.

"Let's go," Yuxuan said, stepping forward, her cold gaze sweeping over the surrounding men like the onset of winter...

Those men who had been staring and almost drooling quickly averted their gaze, not daring to look any longer. In that moment, it felt as if they were about to see their long-deceased great-grandmother...

Chen Xun smiled and shook his head, still carrying the wrapped wood carvings on his shoulder with one hand, while holding Xiao Wuhen's hand with the other, heading out of the city.

Many people cast envious glances their way. This seemingly ordinary small shop owner truly had good fortune, to be favored by such an extraordinary woman...

This woman was clearly someone who lived in luxury, with a privileged background. Being noticed by her could save him years of struggle, and just the sight of her departing figure was enough to spark wild imaginations.

"Still looking? I guess you don't want to come home for dinner tonight!"

"Go sleep on the street!"

"Go home and look in the mirror, do you think she'd be interested in you?!"

...

Suddenly, several women shouted loudly, like roaring tigers, dragging their men away. The men cried out in protest, "Wife, it's a misunderstanding!"

Under the city gate, chaos erupted, with chickens flying and dogs jumping.

Chen Xun slightly turned his head, a faint smile unknowingly appearing on his lips as he gradually walked out of the city.

...

Under the sparse stars and moon, a small path through the fields echoed with the croaking of frogs.

Fireflies dotted the air, flitting about, as the night breeze gently blew, rustling the robes of three figures and the leaves of the surrounding trees, swaying gently under the tranquil moonlit night.

Xiao Wuhen's eyes brightened. The croaking sounded much like Uncle Frog's. He wondered if, after all these years, Uncle Frog was still in the mountains croaking away...

Thinking of this made him miss his relatives in the mountains. He used to think the world below the mountain was bustling, but now he suddenly felt that staying in the mountains wasn't so bad, it was quite lively too.

Xiao Wuhen's thoughts drifted with the night breeze, not paying attention to what the two adults were discussing. They had their world, and Xiao Wuhen had his own.

But most importantly, Yuxuan had cast a spell, so some words wouldn't reach Xiao Wuhen's ears... He only thought they were talking about past adventures and glorious days.
