Courtyard House: The Cultivation System Takes Me Flying

Chapter 168 Forever Remembering the Original Aspiration, Inheriting the Legacy of Our Homeland

The warmth of the Lingxi Moon Banquet still lingered throughout the garden. On a bright morning, Qin Lintian gathered everyone under the Zhaixing Terrace. All the spirits and spiritual beings stood quietly, and a conversation about the original intention and inheritance of the homeland began.

The figure in white on the stage was gentle and serene. His gaze swept over each of his loved ones below the stage, and he slowly spoke, his voice clear and firm: "I have called you all here today for no other reason than to talk about the original aspirations of our homeland and to tell you about the legacy of Chang'an throughout the ages."

Everyone quieted down and listened attentively. Even the playful children stopped what they were doing and looked up at Qin Lintian.

"Our home wasn't always so beautiful and perfect," Qin Lintian's voice flowed slowly, carrying the weight and gentleness of time. "It started as an ordinary little courtyard, with a simple wish to protect the peace of my family. Back then, there was no spiritual realm, no spiritual energy, no myriad spirits, and no gifts from heaven and earth. There were only a few people, one heart, and an unwavering determination not to let my family suffer any injustice or disturbance."

He paused, his gaze falling on Qin Huairu, Jia Zhangshi, He Yuzhu, and the others, his eyes filled with tenderness: "I built Chang'an for eternity not to become a sacred place, not to possess supreme fame, not to achieve immortality, but simply so that you may be far from hunger and cold, far from hardship, far from strife, far from evil, so that you may have food to eat every day, sleep peacefully every night, laugh constantly, and stay together year after year."

"When evil spirits attacked, we united to fight them, not because we were warlike, but to protect this peace; when the spiritual realm of heaven and earth was unsealed, we gladly accepted it, not because we coveted its spiritual essence, but to make our home more peaceful; when mortals came to pay their respects, we treated them with gentleness, not because we craved honor, but because we had good intentions and wished for all living beings in the world to have peace."

"To this day, we have an eternal home, an age as long as heaven and earth, and a life of perfect harmony with all living beings. But I hope that we will never forget our original aspirations—to protect our families, cherish peace, embrace warmth, and walk with kindness."

"This is the legacy of Chang'an through the ages," Qin Lintian's voice rose slightly, yet remained gentle. "We do not pass on power, fame, or treasures, but only peace, reunion, warmth, and kindness. No matter how many thousand, ten thousand, or even billions of years pass, no matter how the world changes, no matter where we go, we must remember: we are one family, and we must stay together; we enjoy peace, and we must cherish our blessings and not squander them; we hold good intentions, and we must be warm and not indifferent."

"Our home is not in a pavilion, not in a sacred place, not in the heavens and earth, but in each other's hearts. As long as we stand together in harmony, as long as we cherish warmth in our hearts, everywhere is eternal peace, everywhere is our eternal home."

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire room fell silent. Everyone was deeply moved, and their eyes welled up with tears.

Qin Huairu gazed at the white-clad figure on the stage, her eyes filled with emotion and admiration. She had understood his original intention from the very beginning. Over the years, he had experienced countless trials, yet he still held fast to his initial, simple wish, never changing, never losing his way.

He Yuzhu nodded heavily, his rough hands clenching into fists. Having lived a life of ordinary human experience, he understood the preciousness of this original aspiration and the inheritance of his homeland, which was the most solid principle in his heart.

Madam Jia wiped her eyes, her face full of emotion. From the hardships of ordinary life to the eternal peace and security they enjoy today, she has the deepest understanding of the perseverance and dedication along the way.

The three elders, Jia Dongxu, Yan Bugui, and Liu Haizhong, exchanged glances, each seeing unwavering resolve and agreement in the other's eyes. This shared aspiration and legacy were more precious than any supreme treasure.

Although the four children were still young, they nodded as if they understood, and firmly remembered the words "family stay together" and "cherish peace".

All spirits bowed their heads obediently, and all living beings bowed in respect. They were born with a deep connection to their homeland, and the concept of inheritance was already etched into the depths of their consciousness.

Qin Lintian looked at everyone and smiled gently: "Remember this original aspiration, safeguard this heritage, and our home will never be scattered, never be in chaos, and never be destroyed. In the years to come, we will continue to live simply, warmly, in harmony, and peacefully."

"Staying true to our original aspirations and safeguarding our heritage!"

The whole group responded in unison, their voices not loud, but filled with unwavering determination, piercing through the morning light and echoing throughout the community.

From that moment on, the legacy of Chang'an, which has endured for millennia, took root deep within the soul of every living being.

No monuments were erected, no inscriptions were cast, and no publicity was given.

It is kept in the heart, remembered in the soul, and put into practice.

In the days to come, this original aspiration and legacy will be reflected in every little thing: the children will learn to cherish peace and quiet, and get along well with all the spirits; the elders will become more gentle and loving, supporting each other and sharing joy; family members will understand and protect each other, and live in harmony; all the spirits and the creatures of the spirit world will always be gentle and kind, living together in harmony and prosperity.

No one brings it up intentionally, yet no one forgets it.

This is the best way to pass on the legacy.

This is the most secure home.

The fresh air of the Morning Dew Spirit Garden continues to nourish everyone every day, the flowing water of the Spirit Stream continues to murmur every day, the wind chimes of the Qinghuan Pavilion continue to ring softly every day, the light of the Longevity Lamp Sea continues to warm everyone every day, the spiritual charm of the Origin Spirit Realm continues to be rich and mellow every day, the years continue as usual, and Qinghuan continues forever.

But what's different is that everyone now feels a greater sense of steadfastness, a greater appreciation, and a stronger sense of belonging to their home. They understand that the Eternal Home is eternal not because of the gifts of heaven and earth, nor because of the power of the Great Dao, but because of its unwavering original aspirations, its continuous inheritance, the unity of family members, and its enduring warmth.

As Qin Lintian strolled in the morning light, watching the harmonious coexistence of all beings, the gentle tranquility of all spirits, and the vibrant life of the creatures, his heart was filled with peace. He could finally let go of all his worries, because he knew that even as time went on, this original aspiration and legacy would continue forever, ensuring that Chang'an would remain forever peaceful, forever united, and forever beautiful.

Unwavering in our original aspirations, unchanged by the passage of time.

The legacy continues, and our homeland endures forever.

This is the most solid foundation of Chang'an throughout the ages.

This is the most precious treasure of Eternal Home.

The morning light bathed the entire garden, warm and bright.

Our original aspirations illuminate the years, gentle yet steadfast.

Its heritage has endured for millennia, enduring and profound.

Forever remembering our original aspirations, carrying on the legacy of our homeland.

One's heart remains steadfast, and peace is found; may this legacy endure for generations to come, bringing joy to all.

With warmth and love, we cherish our loved ones; may Chang'an, the world, be vast and boundless for eternity.
