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

Lin Che gripped the energy in his hand, and he had a premonition that within thirty years, he would comprehend the Origin and break through to the Nirvana Realm.

Yao Xixue tidied her long white hair behind her ear, pursed her lips, and murmured to herself, "Finally... has she grasped it?"

After Tie Dan's father finished his business, Lin Che stayed at home all day, reading books and seemingly forgetting about time.

Until one day, the once azure sky suddenly turned into a storm with rolling thunderclouds and torrential rain, once again shrouding the entire city of Dongling in a downpour.

This rain lasted for a very long time, and the entire street was flooded. Even Lin Che, who was on higher ground, had to raise the position of his shop every day.

If this continues, the area will likely be flooded.

"Father, mother!"

Just then, Lin Ye, dressed in black and white armor, rushed in.

Upon seeing Lin Ye, Yao Xixue immediately put down her tools, quickly walked over, and gently stroked Lin Ye's cheek.

"My son, why are you back? Weren't you in the army camp?"

"Where's Dad?"

Yao Xixue replied, "He's still sleeping."

Lin Ye didn't have time to answer. He walked directly towards the bedroom, pushed open the door, and knelt down when he saw Lin Che, who was still fast asleep.

Lin Che slowly opened his eyes, slowly sat up, and asked, "Why are you back?"

Lin Ye said with a solemn expression, "Father, recently the Heavenly Demon County and the Fire Demon County have started fighting. The rain in this area is all the work of the people from the Fire Demon County. The Demon Emperor of the Fire Demon County... wants to slaughter the living beings here. You should come with me."

"The Demon Emperor of Fire Demon County..."

Yao Xixue frowned slightly, looked at Lin Che sitting on the bed, and asked, "Brother Lin...we..."

“It’s alright. This matter has nothing to do with the common people. This is our home. We are very old and no longer have the ability to cause trouble.”

"No, that won't happen." Lin Ye quickly shook his head and grabbed Lin Che's wrist, saying, "Father, you still have me. I'm a centurion now. I can take you away from here, and then I'll come back to take care of you."

Looking at Lin Ye in front of him, Lin Che's expression was slightly moved, but he still refused. After all, he was very close to comprehending the original meaning, and he could not fail completely because of this matter.

Lin Che patted Lin Ye on the shoulder and calmly said, "Ye'er, remember what your father said: When the rain falls and demons calamity strikes, guard your heart as firm as a rock."

"Father, are you really not going to leave here with me?"

Lin Che shook his head, then looked at Yao Xixue's position: "Your mother and I don't have many years left. Let's take this time to rest. We'll leave the things outside to you."

Yao Xixue didn't say anything more this time. After all, given the current situation, staying here was the only option for them.

Lin Ye looked at his parents, finally stood up, and exhaled a breath of hot air, saying, "Ye'er can't linger here for too long... Father and Mother, take care."

"My son..."

Yao Xixue gently stroked Lin Ye's cheek, her eyes reddening, and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't cultivate well. Just come back safely. Your parents are here."

Lin Ye nodded, looked at his parents, and turned to leave. Perhaps this was the last time they would see each other in this life. Watching Lin Ye's departing figure, Yao Xixue exhaled a deep breath and murmured to herself, "My son, you must be very careful."

Lin Che shook his head, his fingers twitched slightly, and a ball of golden light merged into Lin Ye's body. This was the only thing he could do to help his son as a father.

.........

Over the past five years, the once bustling streets have become eerily quiet, with only a few shops still open; the rest have either left or passed away.

Two years ago, Tie Dan's mother passed away due to excessive longing for him. However, she was not alone in her final moments because she had the company of her family.

In addition to the energy left behind by Lin Che, even if she passes away, she will be able to rekindle her past relationship with Tie Dan's father, and they will definitely become cultivators in the future, living a carefree and happy life.

At this time, Tiezhu inherited Lin Che's mantle. Every day, he not only made a living by blacksmithing, but also sold some fine wine. However, he did not open another shop, after all, he did not want to take away his grandfather Lin's business.

Lin Che had just returned to the shop when the old wind chimes started ringing again. Tie Dan, who was cutting meat in the shop across the street, rushed out the door the moment he heard the wind chimes.

Upon seeing the much older Uncle Lin, a look of pain appeared on his face.

With his parents gone and Uncle Lin now in his sixties, Tie Dan is extremely worried, fearing that his uncle might one day leave him as well.

"Uncle Lin!"

Hearing the noise, Lin Che turned around and saw a man with a lot of stubble. However, he recognized the man as Tie Dan from many years ago.

I never expected to see him again, he's grown so much. Lin Che gently patted Tie Dan's head and said softly, "Five years have passed, you've grown up."

Tie Dan knelt before Lin Che, tears streaming down his face, just like a child before, and choked out, "Uncle Lin, you're getting old, you should stay here. My parents are gone, and now I only have you, Aunt Lin, and Xiu Xiu as my family."

Lin Che gently hugged Tie Dan's head. After all, he was a child he had watched grow up. Seeing Tie Dan kneeling on the ground crying bitterly, Lin Che felt a pang of pain in his heart.

"Alright, you're already in your fifties or sixties, all you do is cry and whine. People will think something terrible has happened. Go pour Uncle Lin a glass of wine to warm him up."

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Tie Dan wiped the tears off his face, turned around and ran towards his family's shop, saying as he ran, "Xiuxiu, Xiuxiu, come out quickly, Uncle Lin is back. Hurry up and prepare the food. Today, Uncle Lin and I will have a good drink together."

A woman who looked to be around thirty years old walked out of the kitchen. Now, so many years later, her face was covered with wrinkles, and she clearly no longer looked like she did when she was young.

Xiuxiu asked in surprise, "Uncle Lin is back?"

"Yes, I just got back. I'll go get the wine I brewed years ago. You go to the Li family's place on the east side and buy some braised beef. Remember to buy some other things too."

"Don't worry, Uncle Lin is back, of course I'll cook lots of delicious food."

"Uh-huh."

Tie Dan said with a smile, "I'll go call Aunt Lin right now. She'll be so happy to know you're back."
