Xian Ni: The God of Killing Returns, Marries Li Muwan at the Beginning

The sun sets, and the mountains in the distance look like sunrise.

In the quiet room.

Lin Che sat cross-legged. As his immortal power surged around him, each condensation distorted the air around him, giving the impression that it could shatter at any moment.

Comprehending the Dao is no easy task. Throughout history, there have been very few cultivators who have mastered even one Dao. To fully master all three Daos is as difficult as ascending to heaven.

Lin Che's fingers moved rapidly, and with each hand seal, the energy in the room would transform into countless fireflies that flew around.

Yao Xixue sat in the pavilion by the door, gazing at the location of the room. She bit her lower lip tightly and murmured to herself, "This energy fluctuation... what is Senior doing..."

Although Yao Xixue didn't know why Senior Lin Che wanted to undergo mortal enlightenment, she could sense that he was comprehending a kind of understanding that was enough to see through the mysteries of the universe.

After so many years of contact, Yao Xixue has gradually forgotten that she is the daughter of the Blood Ancestor Yao Xinghai, and instead regards herself as an extremely ordinary mortal, living out this perfect life.

For cultivators, this transformation into mortals may seem insignificant, but for those who are truly enlightened, every experience they have will correspond to a different realm of meaning.

Yao Xixue stretched out her slender hand, tidied the strands of hair beside her ear, and said gently, "It's getting late, we should go prepare dinner."

Thinking of this, Yao Xixue picked up the bamboo basket in the yard and headed towards the vegetable market, planning to buy some pork ribs today to make braised pork ribs for Lin Che.

.........

"Or not……"

Lin Che slowly opened his eyes, exhaling a wisp of blood-red turbid air, while his aura remained at the mid-stage of the Yang Realm realm.

Over the years, Lin Che has been reflecting on his life every day, but this is not a state of mind, and it cannot be truly compared with the Dao and the Beginning.

Comprehending the Dao Realm and the Beginning Realm is not something that can be done overnight. Moreover, considering environmental factors, it takes a considerable amount of time to truly comprehend them.

Lin Che withdrew his previous energy, returned to his normal appearance, and stepped out of the room.

Yao Xixue had already prepared dinner. When she saw Lin Che come out, she greeted him, "Hurry up and eat, or the food will get cold."

Lin Che nodded, washed his hands, sat down in a chair, took the bowl and chopsticks from Yao Xixue, and smiled, "These are ribs I made especially for you. Try them and see how they taste."

Yao Xixue picked up a piece of pork rib and handed it to Lin Che's bowl. "I'll make you some osmanthus cake tomorrow. Grandma Li from nearby has really delicious osmanthus cake."

Lin Che looked at Yao Xixue in front of him and nodded, asking, "How is life as a mortal?"

"very nice."

Yao Xixue pursed her lips and smiled, "Although at first it was a little difficult to get used to the body without immortal power, and I couldn't fly on a sword or teleport, after a while it became quite comfortable."

Now that she has lived here for two years, Yao Xixue has gone from being angry to accepting, and every time she experiences the various aspects of life, she has an indescribable feeling.

This seems to be the enlightenment that Lin Che once mentioned. If one can truly comprehend it, one's strength will definitely improve by leaps and bounds, and even breaking through to the peak realm will be an easy matter.

Lin Che didn't say anything, picked up a rib and tasted it, then gave his evaluation: "The taste is not bad. It seems that your cooking skills have improved a lot in the past two years."

"As long as you like it."

Yao Xixue poured a cup of warm wine and pushed it in front of Lin Che: "By the way, Tie Dan wants to learn how to brew wine recently. You should find a chance to tell him, otherwise he'll be bullied by Brother Tie every day." Lin Che did not refuse.

If one could make their brewed wine flourish in the land of demons and spirits, that would be a good choice, and it might even be the key to comprehending the Dao and the origin of the Dao.

.........

After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.

Yao Xixue cleared away the dishes, while Lin Che leaned back in his chair, gazing at the dazzling stars in the sky.

Lin Che took out a necklace from his pocket and looked at the two characters "Lin" and "Li" engraved on it, and was deeply lost in longing.

Unbeknownst to him, decades had passed since he left Vermilion Bird Star. He wondered how Wan'er was doing. He assumed she had already broken through to the Nascent Soul stage by now.

At this moment, Yao Xixue, who had just finished clearing away the dishes, also noticed Lin Che's longing expression.

Curiosity arose, and I asked, "Do you miss your family?"

"Yes." Lin Che didn't hide anything and replied, "Yes, my wife is still waiting for me on the cultivation star. I just don't know when I will be able to go back."

"you are married?"

Yao Xixue's expression changed slightly, and a barely perceptible sadness flashed in her eyes as well.

"I got married many years ago, and now that I've been gone for decades, I don't know how she is doing now."

Lin Che exhaled a deep breath and murmured to himself, "Back then, her cultivation level wasn't high enough for the Nascent Soul stage, so she couldn't leave the cultivation star at all. That's why we had to leave her on the cultivation star we were on..."

Yao Xixue's fingertips unconsciously dug at the edge of the table, as if a lump of cotton was stuck in her throat.

She forced a smile, but her voice was lighter than the evening breeze: "So...so you already had someone you loved."

The twilight stretched her shadow long and thin, yet the part that overlapped with Lin Che's seemed so out of place.

As night deepened, when Lin Che got up to go back to his room, she was still sitting there blankly.

The moonlight shone on the pale back of her hands, reflecting the bitterness welling up in her eyes.

The heart-fluttering moments hidden in the mundane details of daily life, the osmanthus blossoms secretly picked from the morning market, and the sentiments concealed in every carefully prepared dish—all these have now become thorns piercing my heart.

Yao Xixue suddenly recalled the way Lin Che stood in mid-air when they first met. At that time, she only regarded him as a profound and unfathomable senior, but she didn't know when it started, she could no longer take her eyes off him.

"Aunt Lin, are you there?"

A greeting came from next door, startling her so much that she hurriedly turned her face away and hastily wiped away the tears that had fallen from the corner of her eye without her noticing.

The night wind ruffled the hem of her clothes. She took a deep breath, burying all her emotions in the darkness. After all, in his eyes, she was just a fellow cultivator who had descended to the mortal realm, while his heart was always with the distant cultivation star.

Yao Xixue stood up and quickly went to the front hall. Seeing Tiedan running in, she asked gently, "Tiedan, it's so late, why aren't you going to sleep? What are you doing at Aunt Lin's house?"

Tie Dan pouted and said, "Dad hit me again, saying I'll be a blacksmith for the rest of my life, but I don't like it..." (End of Chapter)
