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

After leaving Tianyun Star, Lin Che did not return to Zhuque Star, but instead came to the entrance of the Demon Spirit Land.

They also planned to go to the residence of Immortal Lord Qing Shuang to collect the magical treasures inside, as well as the things left behind by Immortal Lord Qing Shuang.

At this moment, at the entrance to the Demon Spirit Land, Lin Che looked at the boundless ocean before him, his handsome face showing a hint of melancholy.

It was several hundred years later when I returned to the land of demons. I wondered how my old friends were doing now.

Lin Che suddenly swung his right hand, and the void in front of him instantly shattered, and a teleportation portal more than two meters high appeared in front of him.

Sensing the energy emanating from it, Lin Che glanced at the surrounding spatial energy, then immediately entered it without lingering.

…………

The land of demons and spirits, Dongling City.

The brilliant sunshine shines in the green tiles and red walls everywhere, the bustling streets are lined with street stalls, the sparkling cars and horses, and the endless flow of pedestrians.

On the bustling street, five- or six-year-old children sat upright on chairs, holding candied hawthorns in their hands, staring intently at the girl in front of them. Each child looked quite nervous.

The girl, dressed in an ordinary pink robe, with her jet-black hair draped over her shoulders, began to recount the story of what happened back then with a smile on her face.

Each child ate their candied hawthorns while listening intently, their faces lighting up with excitement at crucial moments.

"Sister Xue, is the person you're talking about really an immortal?"

"Yes, does that immortal really exist in this world? Will he come back in this lifetime?"

The girl, addressed as Sister Xue, looked up at the children with a smile and said softly, "Of course he exists. The person back then was incredibly powerful; no one in the entire Demon Spirit Land was his match."

Hearing Sister Xue's words, the children looked at each other, their eyes filled with anticipation, wondering what kind of immortal the sister was talking about.

When the story ended, the children chased and played with each other, then turned and left.

Just then, a young man carrying a wine jar walked out of the room and said with a smile, "Mother, are you telling that person's story again?"

Yao Xixue looked at Lin Ye in front of her and gave him a reproachful look, "Although you are no longer the commander, you are not allowed to call Lin Che 'brother' like that. You should call him 'father' from now on."

Lin Ye sighed helplessly, placed the wine jar on the table, wiped the sweat from his cheeks, and said with a bitter smile, "Mother, it's been hundreds of years, and you still can't forget him?"

Yao Xixue sat in the chair, looking at the deep blue jade pendant in her hand, a hint of sadness flashing in her eyes.

Since leaving last time, Yao Xixue has often appeared as an ordinary person, and she will also experience aging. After the end of her life, she will continue to live here in another way.

What Yao Xixue could do every day was to tell the people in the city about Lin Che's story from back then. Whenever she chatted with the children, she would talk about how great Lin Che was back then.

He even shed tears when he spoke of the most profound parts of the story.

The disciples of Dongling City have always taken Lin Che as their role model and worked hard to cultivate. Therefore, in the hearts of the demon soldiers and demon generals in the Demon Spirit Land, Lin Che is a person above humans.

Lin Ye sat in the chair, looking helpless, and said, "Mother, you should stop thinking about it. If you continue to miss her like this, your body won't be able to take it."

Yao Xixue said bitterly, "It's alright... Brother Lin Che has been gone for hundreds of years now. I wonder how he is doing now."

“I recently learned that my father and ancestor have perished… It must have been Brother Lin Che who did it…” Yao Xixue’s fingertips traced the patterns on the jade pendant, the icy touch spreading through her fingertips, just like when Brother Lin Che left back then.

The feeling of standing on the city wall, clutching this jade pendant.

Yao Xixue looked up at the fabric shop across the street. The curtain was lifted by the wind, revealing a sky-blue silk hanging inside, the color Lin Che used to wear most often.

"Ye'er, do you still remember when you first learned to fly on a sword, you always loved to go into the sycamore grove in the east of the city?"

Yao Xixue suddenly spoke, her voice as light as a feather, softly saying, "That grove was planted by your father himself back then."

Lin Ye scratched his head, picked up the wine jar and poured some wine into the bowl: "I remember, you chased me and beat me up for half a street afterward."

Lin Ye laughed as he spoke, but the lines at the corners of his eyes deepened. He shrugged and said, "I went to see them a few days ago. Those sycamore trees have grown so tall they almost reach the clouds. The children have piled up a lot of pebbles under them."

Upon hearing this, Yao Xixue's lips curved slightly, but her eyes quietly reddened. She got up and walked to the eaves, where sunlight fell on the white hair at her temples, giving it a soft silver glow.

An elderly woman selling flowers on the street corner pushed her cart past, smiling and greeting you: "Xixue, the jasmine is fresh today, I saved a small basket for you."

"Thank you, Grandma Zhang."

Yao Xixue took the flower basket, her fingertips touching the petals glistening with morning dew, and smiled, "Is your little one pestering you to tell a story again?"

"That's right, this child insists on hearing a story about Immortal Lin slaying a demon before he can close his eyes." Granny Zhang smiled, her eyes crinkling with wrinkles. "He says that when he grows up, he wants to be like an immortal and protect our Dongling City."

As they were talking, the sound of a copper bell came from the alley entrance; it was the sugar painting master carrying his load.

Several children who had just run off turned back and chattered around the load.

Looking at the sword shadow outlined by the syrup, Yao Xixue suddenly felt her throat tighten. Back then, when her brother Lin Che swung his sword, the sword energy that swept through the air was also golden like this.

Lin Ye appeared behind her at some point and handed her a cup of warm tea: "Mother, come inside and rest. The afternoon sun is too strong."

Yao Xixue took the teacup, her fingertips touching the warm cup, and softly hummed in agreement.

As she turned, the jade pendant slipped from her sleeve, refracting tiny sparkles in the sunlight, much like the starlight in Lin Che's eyes when he smiled and placed it in her hand hundreds of years ago.

The sparrows under the eaves fluttered away, leaving a few feathers swirling down.

Yao Xixue stared at the half-closed wooden door, and in a daze, she seemed to see someone push the door open and come in.

Dressed in white, with a smile in his eyes, he was bending down to rub the head of a little girl with pigtails.

"Brother Lin Che..."

Yao Xixue murmured unconsciously, the steam from the teacup blurring her vision.

Just then, the jade pendant in Yao Xixue's hand suddenly flashed with a pale blue light.

Upon seeing the shimmering jade pendant, Yao Xixue suddenly stood up, staring at it in shock, her pretty face showing a hint of excitement.
