Chapter 94: Chapter 94: The Senior Disciple’s Wedding
Translator: 549690339
Within the Time Hut, Xu Fan suddenly realized that he was already forty years old.
An Ice Mirror appeared before Xu Fan.
Looking at his unremarkable appearance in the ice mirror, Xu Fan smiled, as the face in the mirror now had no significant difference from his past life.
The only difference might be the free and unrestrained air about him now.
Thinking that he had almost finished what needed to be done during the Qi Cultivation stage, and the annoying Zhu Jiao was gone, the next thing to do was to stay in the Time Hut and do some research, waiting for the upgrade.
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, five years had passed.
At this point, Xu Gang and Xu Yuexian had successively defeated the puppets to be promoted, and Wang Xiangchi had successfully challenged the puppets three years ago. Now, except for the tasks that the Sect required them to do, they were practicing hard with the new puppets refined by Xu Fan, currently at the Sixth Level of Qi Cultivation.
Thus, the three of them fell into another round of torment.
The youngest, Li Xingci, was already 12 years old, and had become a graceful young man, revealing the elegance of a young noble, looking very handsome, much like his father. He was now at the Qi Refining Third Layer, primarily practicing Illusion Arts and the Soul Way.
Xu Fan was very satisfied with his steady progress, and had specially refined an Artifact for him, the Mountain and River Map, which was worth no less than an ordinary Treasure Artifact.
Today’s dinner, Xu Fan came out of the Time Hut to have dinner with his four disciples.
Xu Yuexian prepared a table full of delicious dishes that Xu Fan liked.
“What’s the occasion today? So many delicious dishes.” Xu Fan said with a smile.
“Nothing, just wanted to show my gratitude to you, Master.” Xu Yuexian said with a smile, her eyes filled with endless memories. 24 years ago, on this day, she and her elder brother were brought into this magical world, which allowed them to change their fate.
So every year at this time, she and her elder brother would prepare a big table full of dishes to express their gratitude and filial piety to their Master.
“Really? You’ve been with me for 24 years now.” Xu Fan said with emotion, feeling a sense of time and space confusion while staying in the Time Hut.
According to his actual age, Xu Fan was now 50 years old, but his appearance was still that of a teenager. As an Alchemy Master, it would be a disgrace if he allowed his appearance to fade with time.
“How are your grandparents doing?” Xu Fan asked, estimating that the two old people had already passed away.
“Grandpa and Grandma passed away one after the other at the age of one hundred, without any illness or disasters, with a joyful funeral.” Xu Gang said, without much grief in his words. In their custom, children and grandchildren were not allowed to cry when their elders passed away without illness or disasters, reaching the end of their lives. It was a rule.
“Did the old people have any last wishes before they left?” Xu Fan suddenly thought of his senior disciple’s age, which seemed to be over thirty.
“Grandpa did have a last wish, which was for my elder brother to marry Little Sister Xiao Xi.” Xu Yuexian interjected, very dissatisfied that her elder brother had not fulfilled their grandfather’s wish.
“l only treat Xiao Xi as my little sister and never had any other intentions.”
“l promised Grandpa just to make him feel more at ease before he left.” Xu Gang hurriedly explained, his life’s goal already set: to serve his Master dutifully while cultivating immortality and achieving the Great Dao.
Xu Fan looked at his senior disciple’s resistant expression, knowing that there was a hidden reason.
“Tell me your concerns. The elder’s last wish must be fulfilled.” Xu Fan said, knowing a bit about Xiao Xi, who had determined to be Xu Gangs woman after being adopted by the old man.
“Master, Xiao Xi has Five Spiritual Roots, and her spiritual sense is very weak. The path of cultivation has been cut off for her.”
“l don’t want to hold Xiao Xi back with a love between an immortal and a mortal.” Xu Gangs tone was very sincere.
“You are being reasonable. Bring Xiao Xi over tomorrow.”
“Get prepared, and I’ll preside over your wedding.” Xu Fan said happily, just like his simple-minded eldest disciple was getting married.
Xu Gang was taken aback, is Master starting to become old and senile?
“Master, you…”
“What’s the big deal about having Five Spiritual Roots and weak spiritual sense?” Xu Fan looked at his senior disciple with contempt.
“For the sake of a mere immortal like Xu Fan, you’d abandon a sister who’s throwing herself at you? In our village, you’d get cursed to death.”
“Having Five Spiritual Roots isn’t the same as having no Spiritual Roots. Do you know what the strongest path in this world is?” Xu Fan looked at Xu Gang and said.
“What?” Xu Gang perked up his ears, and so did Xu Yuexian and the two brothers beside him.
“The Road of Krypton Gold.” Xu Fan’s expression was very sacred.
“Five Spiritual Roots, weak spiritual inspiration, add a pool of Five Elements Source and bathe in it every day.”
“You say weak spiritual inspiration, is that even a problem?” Xu Fan said.
“It’s not a problem, but the Five Elements Source is a valuable and priceless treasure that you can’t even buy with Spirit Stones.” Xu Yuexian said, the Five Elements Source was a supreme treasure of heaven and earth, and cultivators below the Void Refining Stage didn’t even have the qualifications to see it.
“If you can’t buy it with Spirit Stones, what about top-grade Spirit Stones, or even the best quality ones? Can it not be bought then?”
“It’s just that the price isn’t high enough.”
“You say that your combat power isn’t strong. The two Combination Stage
Flood Dragons guarding the outer gate of the Inner Sect charges 8,000 Spirit Stones per ride. You tell me if it’s possible to protect you for ten years with 10 million Spirit Stones?” Xu Fan continued.
“It’s already down to 6,000 Spirit Stones now.” Xu Gang corrected from the side; it seemed that Master hadn’t been to the Inner Sect in a long time.
Xu Fan gave Xu Gang a blank look.
“The point is this, anything is possible in the Cultivation World.”
“I’m asking you now, if Xiao Xi can accompany you on your Immortal Path, are you willing to marry her?”
At this moment, Xu Gang hesitantly asked, “Master, does marrying Xiao Xi mean I can focus on cultivating the Great Dao?”
Xu Fan turned his head away from this silly guy, and directly said to Xu Yuexian, “First, introduce Xiao Xi as an Immortal, and then prepare a courtyard in the Outer Sect’s Immortal City.”
“After everything is ready, let your brother marry Xiao Xi.”
“Alright!” Xu Yuexian happily agreed. In the Cultivation World, the higher one’s cultivation level, the harder it is to have offspring. In the Foundation Establishment Stage, it’s the best time to have children.
After arranging the marriage of his senior disciple, Xu Fan’s gaze shifted to Xu Yuexian.
“Moon Immortal, you seem to be two years younger than your brother, right?” Xu Fan squinted as he spoke.
Xu Yuexian jumped up in shock and quickly ran towards the kitchen.
“I still have one more dish to prepare.”
Xu Fan watched Xu Yuexian’s retreating figure and turned to Xu Gang, “See, how clever your sister is.”
Xu Gang scratched his head and grinned, “That’s why I always listen to Moon Immortal.’
The wisdom of living as an honest fool.
As the meal finished, Xu Yuexian hadn’t appeared yet, so Xu Fan directly said, “Alright, come on out.”
“Your brother is foolish, so your master has to help out with other things.” “You’re so clever, so of course you’ll have to find your own husband.”
“If you’re unwilling, I won’t force you.” Xu Fan shook his head, she still didn’t know the happiness of arranged marriages.
“Master, can I not find a husband?” Xu Yuexian came out, joyfully running from the kitchen with a chicken leg in her hand.
“Each of you is so difficult to deal with.” Xu Fan looked up at the starry sky and sighed..
