Is it him?
How could that be possible? Didn’t he already die?
The young girl’s face was a picture of shock, then she quickly searched the forum for any photos of Xue An.
Finally, she was certain.
This man was indeed Xue An, who had been missing for four long years.
She couldn’t help but burst into a furious rage.
“Clearly a scumbag, not only did he disappear without a reason, but he also caused my sister to retreat into a life of seclusion. And now that he’s back, he doesn’t even think to look for her!”
The girl’s face flushed with anger, and it took her a moment to calm down before she said in a low voice, “Someone come.’
The door opened silently, and a respectful-looking elderly man walked in.
“Second Miss.” “Prepare the carriage!” “Alright, where to?”
“Mount Qingmang! ”
The martial arts tournament had ended.
The death of the Finger-Heaven Elder had left many people in fear and halted the subsequent matches.
Many people quietly left Qingmang Town, but Xue An didn’t go.
Because he still had some matters to settle.
Since he didn’t leave, Hua Tingting and Tan Xiaoyu also stayed.
Only Tan Dong had something come up temporarily and left Qingmang Town to return to Beijiang.
That day, Xue An took both his daughters mountain climbing.
Tan Xiaoyu and Hua Tingting followed.
The air in the mountains was so pure it seemed as if it had been cleansed. At this time, close to Qingming Festival, fine drizzle fell near Mount Qingmang nearly every day.
But this couldn’t stop the enthusiasm of the two little girls, who giggled and frolicked all the way.
Watching his two clever and quirky daughters, Xue An felt his heart warm.
“Daddy daddy, what’s that over there?” Xue Xiang pointed to a valley in the distance and asked.
Xue An glanced over, “Oh, those are pear trees!”
“Pear trees? Does that mean there are pears to eat?” Xue Nian perked up.
Xue An smiled, “They haven’t blossomed or borne fruit yet, how could you eat them?”
“When will they blossom?” Xue Xiang asked.
“They should… be blooming soon, I guess!”
“It must be really beautiful when they blossom!” Xue Xiang said longingly.
Xue An quietly smiled, then discreetly cast a Spell Decree.
Their destination was also in that pear orchard.
But this year, due to the cold weather, the trees had not blossomed yet.
However, when they reached the middle of the valley, a breathtaking scene unfolded.
The mountain’s pear trees, as if greeting their arrival, all bloomed at once in an instant.
The pure white pear blossoms made the valley seem like a heavy snow had just fallen.
Xue Xiang and Xue Nian paused for a moment, then joyfully rushed into the pear woods.
Hua Tingting and Tan Xiaoyu looked at each other, their eyes full of shock and confusion.
How could such a coincidence happen in the world?
The pear blossoms bloomed as soon as this group of people arrived.
Could it be… this was Xue An’s doing?
Hua Tingting suddenly remembered the time at the Qin Family, when Xue An made the flowers and plants turn green overnight.
Who exactly was he?
Why could he command flowers and plants, making the mountain’s pear flowers bloom abundantly?
Xue An led everyone to the center of the valley.
There was actually a Daoist Temple there.
But it was in disrepair, showing signs of dilapidation.
Xue An walked into the Daoist Temple, and perhaps the sound of his footsteps disturbed the tranquility of the place.
An old, indolent voice came from inside the house.
“Devotees may just take a look and leave. If you wish to make an offering, both scanned code and cash are accepted.”
Xue An’s lips curled into a smile, “Old Master Zhai, you’re actually still alive?”
The room fell quiet for a moment, then the door creaked open, and an old Daoist dressed in grey stepped out, mumbling, “Who is it? That voice sounds so familiar.
As he looked up, he caught sight of the smiling Xue An and was taken aback.
“You… you are…?”
Xue An nodded, “Old Master Zhai, don’t you recognize me?”
The old Daoist suddenly became excited, “Xiao An? You’re actually still alive? But I remember casting several divinations for you, and they all showed you were no longer in this world.”
Xue An laughed, “Maybe your divinations weren’t very accurate!”
Old Master Zhai shook his head, very confident, “My divinations are always accurate, this is so strange!”
Then Old Master Zhai saw the two little girls following Xue An and a loving smile appeared on his face.
“Such beautiful and pure young ladies.”
“My daughters!” Xue An declared proudly.
Old Master Zhai nodded, “It shows.”
He then turned and went back into the house, and after a moment, he brought out two small beaded bracelets.
“These have been blessed by my constant prayers and can ward off all evils!”
“Thank you, Grandfather!” the two little girls exclaimed in unison.
“Mm, good!” Old Master Zhai said, his beard curling up with his smile.
It was only then that he noticed the strangeness around him. He was taken aback at first, and then with a bewildered face he said, “Strange, when I just came out, the pear blossoms hadn’t bloomed yet! How did they all burst into bloom in the blink of an eye?”
Xue An smiled, “Maybe they are welcoming us!”
As he spoke, Xue An took out a bank card from his chest, “This is the pear money I owed you many years ago.”
Old Master Zhai accepted it without hesitation, and even said with a laugh, “Back then you swore that one day you would repay me, and I didn’t believe it.
Now it seems you really did! How much money is on this card?”
“A few tens of millions, I’m not quite sure of the exact amount,” Xue An said nonchalantly.
Old Master Zhai, who was originally excited, froze, “How much did you say?
“A few tens of millions!”
“Did you… rob a bank?” Old Master Zhai asked.
Xue An said, both annoyed and amused, “Do you think you can still get money from robbing banks these days?”
“That’s true, even I support scanned payments for offerings now!” Old Master Zhai mumbled on.
It was clear that he was very happy.
Not because of the money, but because Xue An had come.
Xue An also felt a bit of nostalgia at this moment.
In his youth, when his family had faced great misfortune, he often went into the mountains to gather herbs to make money. By chance, he came to Lihua Valley and met Old Master Zhai, who was in his prime at that time.
Although Old Master Zhai could sometimes be erratic, he was quite sympathetic to Xue An, often helping him out with the offerings from the Daoist temples.
Xue An had said then that he would return to repay the kindness.
Now he had done so.
Xue An walked into the main hall.
The hall was old and in disrepair, giving a dim impression, but the statues of gods were still intact.
The deities worshipped here were a chaotic mix, including the Three Pure Ones and Jade Emperor, as well as various other immortals.
There was even a Fox Immortal enshrined in one corner.
Xue An smiled, casually picked up an incense stick, lit it, and placed it in the incense burner.
“Why are you putting them all in the same incense burner? Divide them up!” Old Master Zhai said.
Xue An smiled, “There’s no need. Let them divide it up themselves!”
Old Master Zhai was doubtful, but as he turned to leave,
All the statues in the hall began to tremble slightly as if…they were paying respects to Xue An.
Xue An stood with his hands behind his back, looking at these statues with a faint smile on his face.
These immortals were truly real.
Xue An had even interacted with them before.
However, compared to Xue An, who had defied the heavens and ascended step by step to the Immortal Realm,
The biggest flaw of these local deities was that they could only survive on the power of faith.
Once they lost belief, it was as good as dying.
But Xue An’s incense stick was enough to give full face to these immortals.
That’s why he said to let them divide it themselves..
