Chapter 285 - 283 The Happiest Time 1



Linyang Market, outer area.

Lu Xuan successfully entered the market, leisurely strolling through the streets which still felt somewhat familiar.

A nearly-new first-grade flying sword, only costs thirty spirit stones!”

“Elixir clearance sale! Buy ten and get one free!”

“Fresh demon beast meat! Freshly caught from the secret lands! Slaughtered on the spot!”

On both sides of the street, numerous stall owners were enthusiastically calling out to passing cultivators. The various chants reached Lu Xuan’s ears, filling him with a sense of cheer.

As his eyes swept across the street, many memories buried deep in his mind suddenly came to life.

Many of the shops he had once patronized still remained the same.

“Eh? This shop that sells spirit beast cubs has changed ownership?”

He paused in his steps, to his left in a familiar corner, a shop that was originally selling Tier-1 and Tier-2 demonic beast cubs and eggs had disappeared. In its place now stood a pharmacy.

Lu Xuan clearly remembered that after he started collecting the white light groups, he purchased Red-bearded Carp and Iron Claw Demon Crabs from this shop.

As he delved deeper into the alleyway, even his Foundation Establishment Realm heart realm couldn’t help but feel nostalgic.

He exhaled deeply and arrived at the courtyard where he initially started.

Standing in front of the door, every brick and tile of the courtyard wall gave him a sense of deep familiarity.

His spiritual sense entered the house in an extremely concealed way, the house had some simple decorations, but no one was home.

The half-acre-plus spirit field in the backyard had been abandoned, a few different first-grade spirit plants of different species were growing, all in mediocre condition. The spirit field was also overgrown with weeds which showed that the owner of the house was not proficient in the cultivation of spiritual plants.

Lu Xuan looked at the overgrown spirit field over the courtyard wall, picturing a graceful, hardworking young man with a low cultivation level tilling this spirit field, carefully searching out insect eggs from the soil inch by inch, clumsily casting the Spirit Rain Technique, watching the growth of the spirit plants every day, until the arrival of the white light groups.

“The place where the dream started…”

He sighed deeply.

“Although I am now alone in the inner sect of Sky Sword Sect with my own mountain and can effortlessly plant a large number of rare spirit plants of third to fourth, even fifth to sixth grade with Spirit Rain Technique and Wood Birth Technique.”

“But my happiest time was still when I was at Qi Cultivation Second Layer, guarding this half-acre spirit field and cultivating Spirit Firefly Grass with no grade.”

Lu Xuan remarked nostalgically.

He turned and arrived at the residence of Zhang Hong, allowing his spiritual sense to explore the area subconsciously.

Just as he was about to knock on the door, Lu Xuan’s gaze sharpened, his expression growing cold.

Under his spiritual sense detection, there were two Middle-Stage Qi Practitioners inside, but they didn’t share the aura of Zhang Hong, Zhang Xiu Yuan, or Xu Wan!

Based on his previous experience during the Qi Practicing Stage, most loose cultivators in the market seldom change their residences. After all, they had weak abilities to resist risks and unexpected events might occur when moving, so staying put was of utmost importance.

If they left their original residence, it usually signified that something had happened, and most of the time, it wasn’t good news.

Thinking of this, Lu Xuan allowed his spiritual sense to probe the residence unrestrictedly.

“Who is it?” A rough voice from within the house asked.

A few breaths later, the front door opened. A cultivator with a fierce look stepped out, holding a first-grade flying sword in one hand and a few first- grade charms in the other.

Upon laying eyes on Lu Xuan, the fierce-looking cultivator scanned him with his spiritual sense and immediately sensed Lu Xuan’s unfathomable aura.

“I wasn’t aware of your esteemed visit, please forgive me for not welcoming you sooner,” the fierce cultivator said, trying his best to restrain his facial expression, squeezing out a few gentle smiles, and spoke in a modest and obsequious manner.

The aura he perceived from the young man in front of him was something he had only felt from a distance a few times in the market. It was similar to the few Foundation Establishment Cultivators in the market, and it seemed to be even stronger.

I have a question for you, and you’d best answer honestly. If I detect any concealing, the consequences might be more than you can handle.”

Lu Xuan spoke directly.

Please ask, senior. I dare not hide anything.”

The fierce-looking cultivator replied hastily.

“Good.”

Lu Xuan nodded.

“I want to know, how did you obtain this residence?”

“I bought it from the Tooth Row in the market. I remember the Tooth dealer very well.”

“So, where did the original residents of this house go?”

“I had inquired before purchasing this house. It is told that the son of the house owner had quite a decent root bone, and has joined a small sect. To provide a better cultivation environment for their child, their family moved to live near that small sect.”

The fierce-looking cultivator replied, choosing his words carefully, fearing that

a wrong word might provoke Lu Xuan’s anger.

’’So they moved their entire family for Little Yuan’s future. I didn’t expect that little brat to have some talent.”

Hearing the reason why the Zhang family had moved, Lu Xuan felt somewhat relieved.

“Alright, you can go back to your room.”

He glanced at the fierce-looking middle-aged cultivator, gave a parting remark, and transformed into a ray of light, disappearing right before the cultivator’s eyes.

“Yes, senior, take care!”

The cultivator shouted loudly. It wasn’t until he couldn’t sense Lu Xuan’s presence that he finally felt completely relaxed.

He took a deep breath, wiping the tiny beads of sweat that had formed on his forehead, his heart filled with lingering fear.

Who could’ve known that the loose cultivators from this house were acquainted with a Foundation Establishment expert? It’s a good thing that the origin of this house is clear, otherwise…”

Thinking of the possible outcome, the cultivator was filled with trepidation. He was extremely thankful that he didn’t cross the original owner of the house.

“He really did join a small sect.”

Half a moment later, Lu Xuan’s figure reemerged quietly. His tone was both gratified and regretful.

The gratification was for Zhang Xiu Yuan’s decent talent, which allowed him to successfully enter a sect and gain the opportunity to change his cultivation destiny.

As for regret, naturally it was something related to the fact that he wasn’t able to meet the Zhang family, who trusted each other and helped each other.

In the moment of his absence, he asked several old loose cultivators living around and learned that Zhang Xiu Yuan really had entered a small sect, which completely reassured him.

In their conversation, he found out that the small sect was thousands of miles away from Linyang Market, and the road was not safe. Additionally, even if he went, he might not be able to find them in a short time. Thus, Lu Xuan had to give up the idea of visiting.

“I don’t know when we’ll meet again.”

He sighed, his temperament was cautious, plus he had the Light Cluster of Spirit Field, so he didn’t need to go out often to seek opportunities. It had been seven or eight years since he entered the Sky Sword Sect, and this was his first chance to travel so far.

As for when he might go out next, who knew when that would be.

Lu Xuan looked at the Zhang family’s house, seeming to see a simple and silly child standing behind a team of loose cultivators, affectionately calling him Little Uncle Lu.

He quickly adjusted his mindset and headed towards the central area of the market.

“After so many years, I wonder how Old He is doing.”

An image of a thin old man flashed through his mind, causing a small smile to appear on his face.
