Chapter 954: Seeing Jiang Anran, The Gift Before Seclusion

Editor: Henyee Translations

Jiang Chengxuan nodded at Shen Ruyan and took out some treasures from his storage ring to a.s.sist in her cultivation, handing them to her.

Knowing these were tokens of Jiang Chengxuan’s care for her, Shen Ruyan did not look at them and directly stored them away.

In their relations.h.i.+p, the value of such items was beyond measure.

Without dwelling on words of farewell or attempts to hold back, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan parted ways outside Thunderclap Valley.

This departure marked a possible century until their next meeting.

Such is the path of cultivation; once embarked upon, there is no turning back.

A hundred years, a thousand years, even ten thousand years are but moments to those in pursuit of the Dao, whose sights are set on far more distant horizons.

There, at the end of the cosmic Dao, lies the highest stage, the summit of this world.

Every cultivator advances towards this singular goal.

Jiang Chengxuan’s figure lifted into a breeze, transforming into a five-colored light that flew towards the distant horizon, vanis.h.i.+ng from Shen Ruyan’s sight in the blink of an eye.

Shen Ruyan, unlike typical lovelorn figures, watched until he disappeared, then turned back to her sect.

In the next period of time, she had to cultivate crazily. She could not let herself fall behind Jiang Chengxuan too much.

This was the tacit understanding between the two of them.

Leaving Thunderclap Valley, Jiang Chengxuan returned directly to the Haoran Sect without seeking any further meetings.

However, his recent time with Shen Ruyan reminded him of several individuals he needed to look after before his upcoming seclusion.

He arrived at a certain hall within the Haoran Sect, inquired about some individuals from an elder, and then set off towards his final destination before seclusion.

This place, too, was within the confines of the Haoran Sect, home to a familiar face he sought to see.

Soon, Jiang Chengxuan stopped among the bustling figures and finally found the person he was looking for.

“Anran,” he called out to the figure.

At his call, the figure trembled, turned around, and revealed a face filled with surprise.

“s.h.i.+fu!” she exclaimed, running towards him and arriving in front of Jiang Chengxuan in an instant.

This was Jiang Anran, the disciple of both Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.

Having ascended from the lower realm to the Floodgate Realm, she joined the Haoran Sect.

Under the influence of Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, she was doing quite well.

Seeing his disciple after such a long time, Jiang Chengxuan couldn’t help but smile with joy.

He could tell Jiang Anran’s cultivation level at a glance. Without a doubt, she was already an extremely outstanding existence among the Haoran Sect disciples.

Her arrival at the Haoran Sect had been timely, and her innate talent, chosen by both Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, was exceptionally strong.

As the disciple of two important figures within the sect, her treatment was naturally the best.

Following the victory in the Five Realms War, the Haoran Sect’s resources had significantly increased, greatly benefiting Jiang Anran.

Her path of cultivation was smoother than that of her s.h.i.+fus, making her one of the foremost among the sect’s younger disciples.

“Anran, it seems your path of cultivation is going very smoothly. Both I am very pleased,” Jiang Chengxuan said to Jiang Anran, his words full of praise.

He was extremely proud of this disciple. After all, this was a disciple he had tried his best to nurture.

Naturally, he felt a great sense of accomplishment.

“You flatter me too much, Master. My achievements today are all thanks to the care from you, and Ancestor,” Jiang Anran said with a radiant smile, her heart br.i.m.m.i.n.g with joy.

The fortune of having Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, and Jiang Chengxuan’s s.h.i.+fu, Qin Shenwu, as her mentors made her feel incredibly blessed.

Her s.h.i.+fu’s occasional remembrance and the profound bond they shared was a rarity she cherished deeply.

“Hahaha, come on, tell me about your recent experiences,” Jiang Chengxuan laughed heartily, taking Jiang Anran for a stroll around the Haoran Sect, engaging in light conversation.

As they walked, many disciples of the Haoran Sect gazed at Jiang Chengxuan with admiration, and their envy towards Jiang Anran was palpable.

Jiang Chengxuan did this intentionally, signaling to everyone that Jiang Anran had his backing.

In the future, as long as Jiang Anran encountered any difficulties, other cultivators would rush to help on his account.

This was the power of strength and fame.

Throughout their walk, Jiang Chengxuan inquired about Jiang Anran’s current situation and offered guidance on cultivation matters.

Along the way, he did his best to guide his disciple. He was extremely caring, and it made Jiang Anran feel warm.

Of course, they inevitably reminisced about the past, including situations in the lower realm and news of other ascended individuals.

Fortunately, none of their old acquaintances who ascended had suffered mishaps in the war, thanks to Jiang Chengxuan’s foresight in providing them with life-saving measures.

With their strength, they naturally would not go on dangerous missions. Relying on their trump cards was enough to save their lives.

Moreover, cultivators who could ascend from the lower world to the upper world more or less had the enhancement of the Heavenly Fate.

Compared to other ordinary cultivators of the Celestial Floodgate Realm, they could still avoid some calamities and accidents.

“I will soon attempt to break through to the realm of Dao Mastery. Focus on your cultivation, and if there’s an emergency, contact my s.h.i.+fu,” Jiang Chengxuan told Jiang Anran a few days later, after ensuring everything was in order.

He then handed her a jade token for contacting Qin Shenwu, along with a collection of spiritual treasures and medicinal pills that were no longer of use to him but perfectly suited for Jiang Anran.

“Thank you for the gifts, s.h.i.+fu. I hereby wish you success in your breakthrough and in finding the Dao,” Jiang Anran said, gratefully accepting the gifts without any hesitation.

“Mm, Anran, I’ll be off then,” Jiang Chengxuan nodded, having finished his final preparations, and without further delay, he departed.

As Jiang Anran waved goodbye amidst the respectful gazes of others, a sense of longing filled her.

She understood the gap between her and her esteemed s.h.i.+fu Jiang and s.h.i.+fu Shen was still significant.

Their exceptional talents meant they were destined for achievements far beyond the confines of the Floodgate Realm.
