Lady Lin's First-ever Journey to Immortality Chapter 538 - Mu's Story Over the Years (I)

Chapter 538 Mu’s Story Over the Years (I)

At the end of Gobi where the horizon glows, the crystal coffin makes a sound slowly when the shy red sun is about to disappear.

Exposing to the outside world, time in the coffin is back to normal. White Fairy opens her eyes slowly.

Snake Fruit has helped her primordial spirit return to her body. The price she has paid is not only the soul power cultivated for hundreds of years. Even earlier, it took her more than 600 years to cultivate her personal ability to the late Gathering Vitality period, and it now also disappears in an instant.

Going against the law of life and death, White Fairy has paid a big price. Her gathered vitality disappears. She gets the golden elixir again, but it soon breaks up. Nebula rotates in her Sea of Reiki, and then the Sea of Reiki closes. Weak Reiki wanders in her meridians. At this moment, White Fairy only has the personal ability of middle Training Qi period.

She was a famous Gathering Vitality female cultivator of the world of cultivation in the past. Now she becomes an inferior training Qi cultivator who has just begun cultivation. White Fairy’s primordial spirit was almost destroyed before. Otherwise, such difference alone will trouble her for a long time.

“Fairy!”

Lin Luoran is delighted to see that she actually wakes up. Realizing that her personal ability is almost completely lost, White Fairy sits up and holds the edge of the crystal coffin with her hands. Since she is physically weak after a long time of sleep, Lin Luoran wants to step forward to help her. However, White Fairy waves her hand to signal her refusal.

“I will do it myself.”

In fact, White Fairy is not physically weak. She just hasn’t felt her body for long. When White Fairy sits up and tidies up her clothes, she finds that her wrist is wearing a lotus bracelet that she loved most in the past. The bracelet has stored many spirit medicines, various spirit stones, and magic weapons for many years. She knows that everything was prepared by Ye Zhao. It is bittersweet and she thinks losing her personal ability is very worthwhile.

She touches the bracelet. The warm ice jade crystal coffin is put away and then disappears.

White Fairy bows to Black Tortoise and says, “Bai Qingxue is grateful to the senior cultivator for your great grace. By Devil Inside, I swear that if the senior cultivator has instructions in the future, Qingxue will be willing to risk any danger to carry out the instructions.”

Black Tortoise nods, meaning that it accepts her Oath of Devil Inside.

Then White Fairy says to Lin Luoran, “When I first met you that year, you were also a Training Qi female cultivator. At that time, I laughed at your inferior personal ability and your nerve to come to the secret land. The G.o.d of destiny makes fools of the people and we are in the other’s position now—you have advanced to the middle stage of Gathering Vitality, while I have returned to the middle stage of Training Qi. I can’t bear the name ‘fairy’ anymore. The G.o.ds and Buddhas in heaven have disappeared. Now in this world, only you are the true “Mortal Heart Fairy” admitted by the heaven. ‘White Fairy’ that others once called vanishes.

The person standing in front of you is Bai Qingxue. It stands to reason that I should call you senior cultivator. For the sake of my mature state of mind, please allow me to call you fellow cultivator Lin as before… you can just call me Qingxue from now on!”

Lin Luoran is dumbfounded and says, “You and I are close friends. Why bother to draw a clear distinction? I will call you sister Bai, ok?”

Bai Qingxue thinks of it for a while and nods. She still likes the name “Linny”, which sounds intimate and casual.

Mu Tiannan also helped her. Bai Qingxue bends over, which is the most serious formality of a lady in ancient times. Mu Tiannan feels nervous and doesn’t dare to accept the formality.

Black Tortoise feels very impatient, “Aren’t you bored with ‘thank you’? The one-month period of Lost Land is due. You guys just leave here as soon as possible!”

Lin Luoran wants to say something else, but Black Tortoise has held her in its mouth and thrown her out of the secret land.

Then Bai Qingxue and Mu Tiannan are also thrown out.

Mu Tiannan looks a little pitiful with only one arm. When he is thrown out of secret land, Black Tortoise says to remind him in an extremely low voice.

“Since you are willing to protect her for a hundred years, I will give you a piece of advice—the Chaos Spirit Liquid of Underground Palace in Jinling City may change your current dying situation. Of course, it’s just a possibility. You should not expect too much.”

Black Tortoise doesn’t want to listen to Mu Tiannan’s boring speech of thanks, so it throws him out of the secret land heavily.

Bai Zhi’s primordial spirit is wrapped in the light group and forgotten by everyone.

When Black Tortoise finally thinks of her, it turns to look at her. Bai Zhi yells in horror, “Sister… I was wrong… sister… help me… help me… ”

Bai Zhi doesn’t know that her senior sister who always met her needs has been killed by her jealousy more than a thousand years ago. Her nice sister has been crushed into dust by ruthless time, which has been blown by wind, and people can’t help but cry for it.

When Bai Zhi was seven-year-old, she was picked up by Bai Qingxue who was visiting relatives in her hometown. Hey, her family sister actually had the Taoist root for personal ability enhancement! “Fifth uncle, how about allowing Zhi to go to my school and be my little school sister?”

Her fifth uncle valued the male child only. He was convinced by the golden beans Bai Qingxue brought back. For him, she was just a useless daughter. He wouldn’t even get so much dowry when she got married!

Uncle Bai allowed Bai Qingxue to take Bai Zhi with her. Bai Qingxue pitied that her family sister was not treated well by her own families, so she was very kind to this family sister.

When Bai Zhi was young, she followed Bai Qingxue everywhere, calling her “sister… sister” in a soft childish voice. It took a long time for Bai Qingxue to correct before she learned that she should call her school sister.

“It’s your own fault.”

Black Tortoise sighs and it still swallows Bai Zhi’s primordial spirit.

…

The three of Lin Luoran are thrown out of secret land by Black Tortoise and they fall into the sea.

Not to mention Lin Luoran and Mu Tiannan, poor Bai Qingxue just returned to the middle stage of training Qi. Her experience and personal ability are totally mismatched. She almost fails to control the sea water and becomes the first female cultivator with Water Taoist root but is drowned in sea water.

Lin Luoran recalls that Bai Qingxue can’t ride the sword with her present personal ability. Fortunately, she still has a bone boat in the s.p.a.ce to solve this problem. Lin Luoran takes the boat out and puts it on the sea quickly. After the three of them get on the boat, she rides the boat through waves.

No sooner had they left the misty Bermuda sea than they met Liao and Hu Ji wandering on the sea.

“Uncle Liao, are you awake?!”

Lin Luoran is so overjoyed that she forgets to ask why Liao is here and how he and Hu Ji know that she has entered Lost Land.

Liao seems to be more excited than her, “Are you all right? This secret land is weird. Even I can’t enter the heterodimentional s.p.a.ce. Have you met an old turtle?”

Lin Luoran feels both overjoyed and shocked. After Liao wakes up, he is so strange. His att.i.tude towards her is not negative as before. And how does Liao know Black Tortoise? He really makes friends all over the world!

Hu Ji looks at Mu Tiannan and then looks at Lin Luoran. He still remembers this face which keeps appearing in front of the Qingcheng Villa. Full of vigilance, he can only say some words to tease her, “You entered Bermuda secret land without saying a word. Liao and I have borne the sea wind in the nearby waters for half a month! Hey, aren’t you a soul of departed? How can you become a real person again?”

Lin Luoran apologizes with a smile and asks Liao and Hu Ji to hurry up and get on the boat.

It is said that the rivals of love can always detect each other. As soon as beautiful young man Hu Ji sees Mu Tiannan, he feels that they can’t be friends. This silly fox that has just humanized knows little about people’s minds. Young master Mu has an iron body which can never be defeated by glare—he even has the ability to impress Black Tortoise. Facing Hu Ji’s provocation, Mu Tiannan is steady and he even smiles at Hu Ji with great demeanor.

During sailing, Lin Luoran briefly tells them what happened in Lost Land. When hearing Lin Luoran, Hu Ji focuses on her interaction with Mu Tiannan. He doesn’t find anything strange, so he finally feels relieved.

As for Liao, he is very excited only for the 100-year agreement.

“Li… Linny, we don’t have to rely on that old tortoise. I may know much more about the Tower of Babel than him. We can just go there by ourselves. Besides, the G.o.ds and Buddhas have turned their backs on affairs of the earth. Why should you try to fix it?”

Lin Luoran feels Liao is even more weird.

“Uncle Liao, I have already promised it.”

After Black Tortoise a.n.a.lyzed the pros and cons, she thought she could no longer ignore it.

Liao mutters, “The annoying turtle is asking too much for its little help”. He mutters a few more words, which seems to show his dissatisfaction with Lin Luoran’s decision to carry this burden. It’s just that he is not as happy as before, which makes Lin Luoran very uncomfortable.

When she wants to ask if the fever has any sequela, Hu Ji points to Mu Tiannan and asks, “Why are you entangled with a demon?”

Lin Luoran’s is annoyed and says, “Hu Ji, be polite.”

Hu Ji finds that she is standing by Mu Tiannan. It can be seen that they once faced danger together and now their relations.h.i.+p is extraordinary. After being reprimanded, Hu Ji feels wronged. Mu Tiannan signals that he doesn’t mind with waving his hand and says, “It doesn’t matter. He is just a kid.”

In fact, Hu Ji and Mu Tiannan both have a pair of single-edged eyes. It’s just that Hu Ji looks extremely young after humanizing, and he becomes frivolous with his single-edged eyes. In contrast, with time going by, though Mu Tiannan’s appearance has feminine features, people can ignore the shape of his eyes and only feel his maturity from his eyes when he is serious.

Mu Tiannan is in ragged clothes, and his gesture with one hand even makes him look more sincere. Hu Ji is furious. Lin Luoran notices Mu Tiannan’s broken arm. She knows that Mu Tiannan has suffered a lot in order to survive. Lin Luoran’s bones and flesh were stripped away when she was trapped in the blood pool of underground palace in the past. When Mu Tiannan suffered from blood poisoning, she knew his pain was no less than hers at that time. She once doubted him, but now she thinks she should let it go.

“Your arm… I still have some dragon marrow here…”

Mu Tiannan refuses sincerely, “If one day I want to regrow my arm, I will definitely ask you for help. Let me keep it to remind myself in the future.”

Lin Luoran said with a wry smile, “I think you are so different from before. I am so curious about your experiences over the years.”

Foppish Mu who paid attention to appearance and was known for being das.h.i.+ng can even accept a broken arm now. Lin Luoran feels that Mu Tiannan is a bit strange but it is interesting.

Mu Tiannan nods, “If you want to know, I will tell you in the future.”

Looking at the interaction between the two people, Liao looks a little weird. He thinks of something and he wants to laugh.

Beautiful young man Hu Ji is so angry that his cheeks bulge. He looks more like a bun.

As for Bai Qingxue, feeling the salty sea breeze, she thinks her new life is so amazing.

A group of people returns to Dongting City. They feel an atmosphere of tension before returning home.

There are virtual screens everywhere on streets, broadcasting the battles between the alliance of Elok and Bape and the Alpha Alliance. Military experts a.n.a.lyze that the war has not yet affected the Earth Federation, but the public should be vigilant.

Because of these words, prices are forced up first, apart from anything else. Streets are full of people rus.h.i.+ng to buy daily necessities. The tense atmosphere seems to have changed the situation, and things go back to the Old Era when the earth was in panic and retreated in the invasion of the Alpha Alliance.

Lin Luoran frowns. She contacts Xiaozhi first and asks it about the situation when she was absent. Then she rushes all the way to the Mas’ villa.

Liu Qingdai is standing in front of the villa. Liu Qingdai’s lines of faith felt Lin Luoran’s ocean of consciousness as soon as it recovered. Her anxiety dissipates then. Liu Qingdai has been waiting for her by Dongting Lake for a long time. Ma Shuangshuang noticed her when she went out for morning exercise. She gave her a pressing invitation to the villa. Liu Qingdai didn’t dare to make any trouble, and she just waited outside the villa.

Seeing Lin Luoran in a mess at this moment, Liu Qingdai is shocked. Big events happen one after another, and Lin Luoran has no time to change clothes. The “Protean Dress” she wears is destroyed by the gold hawk’s feathers and it is torn and dirty. If she doesn’t reproduce one, she can never wear it again.

She invites Liu Qingdai to enter the house and asks Colin to find a garment that fits Mu Tiannan. Ignoring their curious glances at Bai Qingxue, Lin Luoran goes to freshen up quickly and finds an old dress aging for hundreds of years from the s.p.a.ce. Lin Luoran and Liu Qingdai can finally exchange information about the current situation.

Xiaozhi can invade the Alpha Alliance system, the Earth Federation penetrates everywhere like water, and even the Liu family of the Alpha Alliance knows many things. They all know much more about the situation than the shallow a.n.a.lysis by military experts in interstellar TV.

The situation is actually worse than what has been reported on the Interstellar.

The two alliances fought a well-prepared battle, while the Alpha Alliance was completely caught off guard. Now the Alpha Alliance has lost its Rank Three member star, which causes extremely negative results. The middle and high rank member stars keep clamoring. The war has been in a stalemate.

Once the situation continues to deteriorate, the Earth Federation will be thrown on the front line as cannon fodder. The alliance has done that to some Rank One member stars. Without Lin Luoran, maybe the Alpha Alliance would have done it long ago. After all, one reason for the war is “the Alpha Alliance should reveal the secret for longevity”, which totally aims at the earth. The Alpha Alliance launched an invasion war more than 300 years ago, which took it so much effort to conquer the earth. However, it hasn’t benefited and it is now stuck in troubles.

For a little benefit, it has to pay so much. The decision-makers of the alliance certainly hate the Earth Federation very much.

In fact, the Earth Federation has turned against the Alpha Alliance due to Lin Luoran’s Miaoyin Spell Conference. The Earth Federation will not obey Alliance’s orders. Lin Luoran worries that if the Alpha Alliance is totally defeated by two Alliances of the Galaxy, the enemy the earth has to face will change from one evil tiger to two hungry wolves.

“Regardless of the situation, stabilizing people is the most important. Since the Liu family can no longer control the situation, I will do it personally.”

Liu Qingdai blushes when Lin Luoran says so. She agrees instantly.

Lin Luoran thinks to herself. When the war breaks out, she may have to kill a few senior leaders of Elok Alliance and Bape Alliance to warn them that the earth is hard to deal with… Well, she has to relocate people at the same time. Rebuilding the earth has to be put aside.

Liao feels a little frustrated. Because Lin Luoran has contacted with Xiaozhi, discussed with the alien barbarian Colin and Liu Qingdai, however, she has never asked his opinion from beginning to end.

Hu Ji feels the same as Liao. Lin Luoran totally forgets these two masters, and she keeps talking with the stupid intelligent brain and mortals. What is she going to do?!

At this moment, Mu Tiannan, who has washed up, comes downstairs in a new suit.

His hair is still wet, and he still looks s.e.xy and elegant with a broken arm. Hu Ji is gritting his teeth secretly. Mu Tiannan listens to the discussion for a while and laughs aloud.

“This matter has something to do with me. Why are you discussing it with others instead of me?”

Hu Ji is stunned by Mu Tiannan’s shamelessness, and Liao’s fragile heart breaks. Cla.s.sified as “others”, sensitive intelligent brain is angry. However, Colin doesn’t care about it while Liu Qingdai is calm.
