C116 Jade Crypt

More than a month had passed since the disaster of the Qiong Qi, and currently, the Six Realms had been temporarily pacified. For the Qing Qiu Mountain, the most important and urgent task now was to rebuild the Tai Hua Altar, the Divine Wind Altar, and the West Yong City. In these two pots and one city, the most damaged place was the Divine Wind Altar. All the pavilions and pavilions were all destroyed and turned into rubble. The situation of Taihua Altar was slightly better. After all, Qiong Qi only stayed in Taihua Altar for a short period of time. However, Taihua Hall, Cultivator's Garden and other important buildings within the altar also ceased to exist. The situation in the West Yong City was much better, when the Qiong Qi destroyed the West Yong City, they were at the end of their tether, so other than most of the outer city being destroyed, the inner city was mostly intact, but the amount of retraining was equally difficult.

Based on the severity of the damage, Yin Bao Scroll sent Shen Jingyang to Tai Hua Altar, Ning An Stage, and Li Zongyin to the Divine Wind Altar. After obtaining Yun Jiu Tang and Gu Xue Luo's consent, he sent the two of them along with Murong Dawn Mu to West Yong City.

Yin Bao rolled his eyes at them, stroked his beard, and smiled as he greeted them, "I originally didn't want to bother you guys, but now that the reconstruction tasks in these three areas are indeed very onerous, I have to consider it over again. I will still send you guys over, I hope you don't …"

"Elder," Yu Yin suddenly interrupted Yin Bao Yun, "I would like to ask, why did you send Sun Ark and me to the Tai Hua Altar? Can we go to the Xi Yong City or the Divine Wind Altar?" The expression on Yuyin's face was somewhat complicated. She looked forward to it, but she was more afraid, as if an unknown fear was waiting for her.

Yin Bao Yun smiled and gently sipped his tea, then looked at Shen Jingyang instead, "Miss Yuyin, if you still remember the past, you wouldn't be asking such a question." He lightly patted Shen Jingyang's shoulder and meaningfully said, "Xiangyang, no matter where you are, you're from Taihua Altar, so I believe you understand my intentions. On the day when the Qiongqi was rampant, you performed very well in the Tai Hua Altar, completely abandoning your personal feelings of kindness and hatred. "Therefore, this time …" Yin Bao Yun stopped speaking.

After Yuyin heard what Yin Bao Qin Scroll said, she no longer tried to refute him. However, to her personally, she had a million reasons not to go to Tai Hua Altar. In the end, these reasons would all converge into one — — Yu Yin's understanding of her own background and the regret that resulted from it. But at this point, it was already too late. Yu Yin looked at Shen Yushi, a complex expression appearing on his face. Confusion, hesitation, expectation, and worry intertwined together, revealing itself on his handsome face. Even though Yuyin knew that Shen Jingyang would definitely not refuse, that he would definitely rush to Taihua, that he would forget everything that had happened between them, and that he would even mention her past to her, right now, Yuyin did not want to see that person again so quickly. He wasn't ready yet.

The Supreme Mystery was about seven hundred miles away from the Tai Hua Altar. Under the galloping speed of two galloping horses, Shen Jingyang and Yu Yin finally arrived at the Tai Hua Altar at sunset.

From a distance, the Taihua Altar no longer had its usual elegance. The eaves, teeth, and heavy snow had all disappeared. What greeted him now was a multitude of high, low, jagged ruins, except for the enormous, majestic plaque — the vermilion plaque with the words "Tai Hua Tan" carved into it — still standing on the broken front door. The plaque exuded an inviolable dignity, as if it were telling of the great, glorious glory of the Tai Hua Tan. There was also the plain and desolate forest of monoliths. The painful memories of Shen Jingyang were deeply hidden within, but it was actually the most perfectly preserved building in the entire Taihua Altar.

Although it was already sunset, the disciples were still excited. They were sweating profusely and enthusiastically as they poured themselves into reconstruction. The rubble had been cleared away and stones and lumber were piled up on the side. They were talking and laughing heartily. The hired craftsmen were drawing the drawings on the spot, and the others were putting the stone and wood in the right place. Standing on this land that was once ravaged by Qiong Qi, he did not feel even a trace of worry or fear. It was as if the disaster of Qiong Qi had never happened.

This, perhaps, was what a post-disaster reconstruction should look like.

Almost half of the disciples in the altar had died, but they were still able to spend the shortest amount of time in reconstruction. This kind of super powerful self-recovery ability could even be counted on one hand, and it could be counted on one hand in the entire six realms. It could be seen that very soon, Qing Qiu Mountain would once again display the glory of a Tai Hua Altar. A brand-new Tai Hua Altar would once again appear in the light of day, giving people hope and encouragement.

From a great distance, Shen Jingyang and Yu Yin could see Yu Yin's figure bustling about. They saw him standing on a relatively large mound, directing the disciples to do their work in an orderly fashion. His spirit was still as lively as it was ten years ago, as if it had passed by him in the blink of an eye without leaving a trace of age. As always, he continued to shout and command from above, always finding the disciples too slow. After more than ten years, his stubborn and irritable temperament still hadn't changed, and it was even worse than before.

The two of them slowly walked towards Jade Ion. Even though their steps were a bit hesitant and slow, they still walked towards him. It was only when he was almost to the front of Yu Jie that he could sense that someone was coming from the two of them.

This was the first time that Yu Yin had looked closely at Jadeite's face. Although she had treated Jadeite more than once during the Qiong Qi War that day, it was still a critical moment, so how could she be in the mood to observe its appearance?

As Yuyin looked at Yuren, she felt a sense of familiarity from his blazing gaze. She clearly remembered that this kind of gaze would always appear in her dreams. Although it was within her reach, it was actually far away from her reach.

Seeing the surprised look on Yu Tian's face, Shen Jingyang and Yu Yin felt a little awkward. After a moment of silence, Shen Jingyang finally opened his mouth first and said, "Jade Temple Altar Lord, today we are here on the orders of Elder Tai Xuan Capital's Elder Yin to assist you in rebuilding the Tai Hua Altar …" Shen Jingyang wanted to break this silent and awkward atmosphere as soon as possible, so he directly opened his mouth to say the purpose of his visit.

"Haha, the elder is the most considerate one," Yu Yong said impolitely. In fact, before the two of them arrived, Yin Bao had already sent a Green Bird message to them, "I won't hide this from the two of you. I'm in urgent need of manpower right now, so it's much easier here." Jade Ion was, after all, the most experienced master in the entire Qing Qiu Mountains. Having been in command of the Tai Hua Altar for over fifty years, he had seen countless storms and waves, and had come into contact with all kinds of people.

"Altar lord is too kind," Yu Yin also spoke, "Although we are here to assist, but major matters are decided by Altar Lord. Therefore, we ask for your advice." As Yu Yin spoke, she looked at Yu Ren and realized that although his dignified and dignified face showed an old face, his eyes were still sparkling. Although his expression lacked the heroic spirit of a young man, there was a faint trace of stubbornness that could not be stolen. Perhaps this was the reason why Madam Peach Blossom had never reunited with him over the years. The two of them were both very stubborn and strong personalities, so it was inevitable that they would clash. How could they stay together for long?

It was then that Yu Yin noticed Yu Yin, and she was a little unnatural under his gaze, "Miss Yu Yin, the disaster that happened in Qiong Qi was all thanks to you taking good care of me," Yu Yong said gratefully, "If it wasn't for you at that time, I wouldn't have recovered so quickly."

Yuyin clearly remembered that day after he was hurt by a Qiong Qi, she risked her life to rush to his side to help him bandage his wounds. Looking at this stubborn old man in front of her, she suddenly felt pity for him.

Jade Ion brought the two of them to a stop and checked the way. Along the way, Yu Yin occasionally looked at Shen Jingyang, but his expression was still a little unnatural. Joy, nervousness, suspicion, and anger were mixed in his expression. Yes, this was, after all, the altar that he had cultivated for many years. Shen Jingyang had entrusted all his feelings towards it, all these years, whenever it was mentioned or involved, he would hesitate to speak. Shen Jingyang had never told her about Tai Hua Altar. Yu Yin knew that it was a heavy knot hidden in the depths of his heart. It was a knot in his heart. He was afraid that he would be touched, but sooner or later he would have to face it.

The sun was setting in the mountains, and the shadows of people were scattering in all directions.

All the disciples had finished their day's work and were sitting around a bonfire in groups of three or five, casually eating their food.

Although it was already the middle of spring, it was still chilly when night fell. In particular, the Taihua Altar is located on the steep mountain peak of Ottawa, which is even colder. The three of them sat cross-legged next to a bonfire. The raging flames dispelled the chill within them, and soon, their bodies began to warm up. On a night like this, a bonfire and a pile of food might be the best comfort for those in a gorgeous place like this.

"Master …. Altar lord …." Shen Jingyang clearly realized that he had said something wrong, and hurriedly corrected himself, "In your opinion, how long do you think this reconstruction will take?" Even after so many years, Shen still couldn't change the Ottawa complex.

Seeing this scene, Yu Yin's heart slightly trembled. He thought that perhaps Shen Jingyang had long since treated Taihua Altar as his home, which was why he risked his life to save it when the Qiong Qi Sect was in chaos.

"Even though the Qiong Qi victims have been eliminated, the situation is still very serious. According to the current progress, only the front hall and back hall, together with the cultivation garden, will be built in at least four months."

The bonfire crackled with crackling sounds as flames constantly sputtered out of it, scattering sparks all over the place before extinguishing in the blink of an eye.

Jade Ion asked casually, "I heard that Miss Jade Yin came from the Stellar Hall, right?"

"That's right, Yuyin had grown up with President Feng Chen." When Yuyin said this, she actually felt a wave of indescribable pain in her heart, "I've lived in Feng Chen Court for fourteen years, so I'm very familiar with everything there. What does the Altar Master want to know?" Only now did Yuyin realize that the person she was most concerned about was still Feng Chen Ting.

"Oh, it's nothing," Jade said with a slight smile, her face no longer stern and old-fashioned. "I was very familiar with your Master in my early years," he said with a sigh, "but now we haven't seen each other for many years, I wonder if he's doing well?"

Yu Yin was stunned, "The Lord Courtmaster is very good. He has never had any distractions or worries in his life, so he lived a carefree life …" Yu Yin looked at Yu Ren and just wanted to say loudly, he had always had a clear conscience, but you, what did you do, did you have any sense of shame for your own child? However, she tried her best to swallow that saliva in her heart and didn't say it out loud in the end.

"That's right. In his open-minded life, he was able to pull himself out in time after experiencing pain and not be disturbed by any emotions." Yu Long seemed to have sensed this as well, "This is the highest realm a human can reach, so he created the Stardust Court. The people of the Six Realms all admired his name and went to take divination. If one's cultivation level is not high enough, then it is impossible for one to achieve such an effect. "

"Then, Altar Master, what about you?" Yu Yin fixed her eyes on Jade Ion, and asked seriously, "Are you at a sufficient level to be a human?"

Just as Yu Yin finished speaking, Shen Jingyang pulled on her sleeve and muttered, "Yu Yin! What are you talking about! "

It's a good question. "He threw a broken branch into the flames, and his originally relaxed face immediately became sad," I, am still far from the realm of empty thought, where he can put down all distractions to create the Stardust Court. As for me, can I give up on everything here? I have lived in the Tai Hua Altar for over 50 years. " The implication of his words was that Taihua Altar had become a part of my life.

"Is Tai Hua Altar really that important to the Altar Lord," Yu Yin once again pressed on, "Does the Altar Lord not have any family members or children to take care of?"

Shen Jingyang looked at Yuyin, wanting to stop her from asking more questions, but Yuyin clearly did not want to miss this opportunity. Besides, the knot in her heart that had been suppressed for more than ten years should be looking for a way to vent.

Jade Ion was slightly startled, "Home …" He only felt that this word was very foreign to him and no one had ever mentioned it to him before. "I haven't had a home for many years …." Yu Ren's eyes became moist, and his face seemed to have aged a lot. "Currently, Taihua Altar is my home …"

"Doesn't the Altar Lord have a family?" This question was so sharp that even Yuyin herself was regretting it.

"Family? They've long since left, "Yu Yong said with an indescribable sorrow," To tell you the truth, Miss, I have a daughter. If I hadn't lost her that year, she would have already been as old as you … " Yu Yong looked at Yu Yin and said sincerely.

Yu Yin could feel that Jade Ion was doing what she wanted to say without a trace of sadness or remorse, "How could she be lost? Has it been so many years since the last time the last one was found?" Yu Yin bit her lips and said angrily.

Shen Jingyang suddenly interrupted, "The Great Thousand World, the vast sea of people, where do you want the Altar Master to go?" Shen Jingyang was worried. If he continued to ask, both sides would lose control of their emotions. At that time, it would be difficult for them to handle the situation.

Yu Du waved his hand at Shen Jingyang, "Sigh, I'm ashamed to say that I did look for you." Yu Du's emotions and memories seemed to have returned to the scene from many years ago, "I even wanted to explore every corner of the Qing Qiu mountain, no matter how many times I tried, there was no news of me, and in the end … I can only give up … "

"So that's how it is, it seems that it's really more important to be in a gorgeous jar," Yu Yin endured her pain, trying her best to not let her tears flow out, "I wonder how that little lost girl is doing now?"

I hope that she can live well, but now that the situation has changed, I'm afraid that we will never have the chance to meet again, "Yu Tian sighed, her voice filled with sorrow," Taihua Altar poured all of my life's effort into helping her, and since I've already missed it once, I can't make a mistake again, no matter what happens, I won't give up on Taihua Altar.

"Haha, yes, for a Altar Master, the Altar is everything," Yu Yin said coldly, "Just like now, although the Altar Master has suffered the disaster of being poor, he can still rebuild the Altar Master within four months."

Yuyin stared into the dark night, the dark clouds obscuring the last of the starlight. She seemed to have an answer in her heart, 'Since there's only such a magnificent altar in his heart, then what's the point of mentioning anything else!'
