Chapter 1505 - 1502: The Mu Family Has Come After Us
"To completely disappear from the Southern Domain?" Qin Yanyang looked at Yan Xihua in confusion and asked, "Sister Yan, are you suggesting there’s a better place for Yang Fei to go?"
Yan Xihua said, "If you trust me, I can indeed send you far away from the Southern Domain World."
Sun Xingyu frowned and said, "They came here mainly to broaden their horizons and to venture into the true Great Cultivation World. Moreover, the living environment on Earth is very unfriendly to the mundane people. Since we are the pioneers among Earth’s cultivators, we bear the responsibility of leading the ordinary humans away from suffering, trying to resolve Earth’s plight as much as possible. If we only cared about our own peace and happiness, Yang Fei and the others could have stayed on Earth, why risk coming to the Southern Domain World?"
Yan Xihua glanced at the three of them and said, "Do you truly think this way in your hearts?"
Qin Yanyang nodded decisively, "If possible, we would like to strive for it."
In the past few years, she led those Foundation Establishment Cultivators left on Earth to fight in all directions, resolving sieges for many mundane cities and personally witnessing too many mundane villages and towns being overrun by demon beasts, with mundane people suffering terribly.
Although she had become a cultivator, distancing herself from the mundane, growing up from an ordinary person, along with her former military status, Qin Yanyang had from a young age established the aspiration to protect the common people, thus finding it hard to let go for now.
Yang Fei and Sun Xingyu did not deny it, tacitly agreeing with Qin Yanyang’s response.
Yan Xihua glanced at the three of them with a complex expression and sighed, "As cultivators, you are unable to sever mortal ties, with too strong an obsession in your hearts, which, if unresolved, will prevent you from successfully forming a Nascent Soul in the future."
Yang Fei frowned, "Must we sever mortal ties before forming a Nascent Soul?"
Yan Xihua shook her head, "Not exactly, but the obsession is too deep, making forming a Nascent Soul very dangerous, almost impossible for anyone to succeed. Instead, one might be seized by a Heart Demon Tribulation during the process, undergoing a cultivator’s greatest life-and-death ordeal, often resulting in death and Dao dissolution. Even if successfully forming a Nascent Soul, if unable to let go of worldly obsessions during the Spirit Severing Stage, one’s cultivation realm would remain stagnant, never exploring a higher immortal path."
Yang Fei’s eyes shone brightly as he said, "In that case, according to Immortal Yan’s current realm, haven’t you already severed your obsessions and mortal ties? Does this mean your bonds with my brothers are false?"
Yan Xihua chuckled, "You have quite the courage, daring to question my relationship with Sun Lang face to face."
Yang Fei solemnly replied, "I’m just stating facts."
Yan Xihua said, "The connection between Sun Lang and me is no longer ordinary worldly love but a solitary immortal bond, being Dao companions to support each other, advancing together."
Yang Fei frowned, "How is this different from worldly love?"
Yan Xihua said, "The only difference is when it comes to realm enhancement and breakthroughs, one can decisively choose and not be bound by such relationships. But worldly people, once deeply in love, find it hard to sever and abandon."
Sun Xingyu showed a trace of sadness on his face.
Yan Xihua felt a pang of heartache, walked over to take his arm, and said softly, "Sun Lang, rest assured, even if that day comes in the future, I will not truly forget you. Just focus on your cultivation, and we can stay together forever on this immortal road, never separating."
Sun Xingyu nodded slowly and said with ease, "What I care about is what we once had, as long as we were happy together, that’s enough."
Yan Xihua nodded, "Exactly, whether living as a person or an immortal, if one isn’t happy at the moment, how can there be talk of the future?"
Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang saw the two get affectionate, feeling a bit speechless.
The two exchanged glances, filled with affection in their eyes.
But thinking of possibly facing life and death in the future, they felt they couldn’t let go, feeling unbearably sad inside.
Qin Yanyang’s eyes reddened slightly, and she asked Yan Xihua, "Sister Yan, do you mean Yang Fei and I also need to sever and abandon in the future?"
Yan Xihua glanced at her, nodding, "Cultivation for longevity is like this."
Qin Yanyang said sadly, "Becoming an immortal but losing even emotions, turning into a walking corpse, what is the point of such an immortal? Why do people in the cultivation world pursue the road to immortality?"
Yan Xihua shook her head, "I also don’t know if immortals can have emotions, but on the cultivation path, we cultivators, upon reaching a certain realm, must sever and abandon to pursue the road to immortality. In my opinion, once truly ranked among the immortals, breaking through to the immortal realm, perhaps then one can do as they please. Otherwise, if true immortals have no emotions, what meaning does living have? Such immortality becomes a terrifying curse."
After speaking, she waved her hand, "Enough of this sad topic. Let’s talk about the matters you have to face now."
She looked at Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang, asking again, "Do you really insist on staying in the Southern Domain World?"
Yang Fei nodded, "I see things to the end and don’t like to evade."
Qin Yanyang looked proudly at her man and said, "I like your indomitable spirit. No matter if this can succeed, we want to give it our all."
Yan Xihua looked at the two with a complex expression and said, "If that’s the case, I don’t have a better plan either. In the eyes of cultivators, mundane people and those demon beasts are almost no different from ants. You want the entire Earth Human Clan to migrate to the Southern Domain, integrate completely into this world, gain recognition from the Nancheng Human Race, and hope they’ll be protected by local cultivation forces like the Nancheng Human Race, you have a long, long road ahead."
Sun Xingyu said, "No matter how long the road, as long as we don’t give up, generations can walk it to the end."
Yan Xihua nodded silently.
Yang Fei said, "If a few Divinity Transformation Realm Masters emerge among Earth’s cultivators, would the road still be far?"
Yan Xihua looked at him with a slightly sarcastic smile and said, "You indeed have the potential for Divinity Transformation, but do you know how difficult it is?"
Yang Fei said, "I am not yet fifty, already at Middle stage Core Formation, I will definitely cross into the Divinity Transformation Realm."
Yan Xihua was slightly moved.
She glanced at Yang Fei, then looked at Qin Yanyang and Sun Xingyu, and after thinking for a moment, said, "If all three of you successfully enter Divinity Transformation, then you can surely gain a safe haven in the Southern Domain for Earth’s Human Clan."
Yang Fei said confidently, "That is enough."
Yan Xihua couldn’t help but admire these young people’s courage and determination. She wanted to remind Yang Fei that it wasn’t that easy; without anyone paving the way, stepping into Divinity Transformation was as hard as reaching the sky, but seeing the confidence on Yang Fei’s face, she restrained herself.
"Madam, someone from the Mu Family in Beizhou City has come. They say it’s of vital importance and hope to see Madam."
Suddenly, a voice from afar interrupted their conversation.
Yan Xihua frowned slightly, showing a displeased expression, "I have the most esteemed guests here, no time to see him."
"Yes, I informed them of that, but... the one from the Mu Family is Mu Qingchuan."
Yan Xihua was slightly surprised.
Mu Qingchuan, a mid-Nascent Soul stronghold from the Mu Family in Beizhou City, a descendant of the current family head, holds a prominent position. The Mu Family has a good relationship with West Phoenix Valley. For him to come personally, saying there is a significant matter, what could have happened?
Just as she was thinking, she heard Yang Fei say, "He should be coming for me."
Yan Xihua’s expression changed slightly as she looked at Yang Fei and asked, "Why?"
