Chapter 2478 - 2476: Old Friends from Earth
The group led by Little Kirin came over and all knelt down to Long Fei in a grand gesture.
He cheerfully called out to Long Fei, "Dad, look who I’ve brought over!"
Long Fei had already noticed the girl beside him; her eyes were as clear as spring water, warmly gazing at Long Fei.
Little Nannan ran to Long Fei’s side and deliberately asked, "Dad, do you still recognize her?"
Long Fei chuckled softly, "Tiantian!"
The young girl burst into tears and wailed, nostalgically calling out, "Uncle Long!"
Long Fei reached out, hugged her close, and let her cry for a while.
When he was about to leave, Long Fei discovered this young lady had a talent for seeing Yin Yang Eyes, so he left her some secret cultivation techniques in her mind.
It was unexpected that they could meet again.
Little Kirin and the others snickered behind them, feeling truly joyous watching their reunion.
Long Fei asked Little Kirin, "How did you find Tiantian?"
"It’s a long story, Dad, can you give us some tea so we can sit down and talk it over slowly?"
Little Kirin chuckled and sat down on the ground with his siblings.
"It’s just ordinary tea, and you act like it’s something special."
Long Fei laughed and lifted his hand, pouring them each a cup of tea.
Little Kirin took a sip and began to narrate slowly to Long Fei.
After they went to the Nine Domains, holding onto a sliver of hope, Little Kirin inquired all around for news about He Tiantian.
Unexpectedly, he did manage to find information.
After Long Fei left Earth with the Yin Yang Sect disciples, Earth officially entered the Dharma-Ending Age.
He Tiantian rose alone during this era, becoming Earth’s final cultivator, revered by humanity as a divine spirit, a goddess, an immortal.
She followed Long Fei’s tracks, ventured south to Mount Shu, north to Changbai Mountain, west to Kunlun, and east to the Penglai Three Islands.
Thanks to the Yin Yang Sect disciples, she found some fortuitous moments left on Penglai Island, allowing her to cultivate alone for thirty thousand years.
During these thirty thousand years, Earth experienced drastic changes.
Yet she was suppressed by heaven and earth, and her cultivation level ultimately remained at the Divinity Transformation Realm.
Her mortal body perished while her primordial spirit endured.
As human technological civilization reached its pinnacle, mankind found they were merely like insects reared within the Solar System.
No matter how hard humans tried, they couldn’t break free from the confines of this small space.
They discovered a formidable spatial barrier around the Solar System.
Even the most advanced weapons couldn’t penetrate this spatial barrier.
In their despair, humanity exhausted their final resources, until the internal collapse of the sun triggered the total collapse of their tiny world.
The entire space rapidly contracted, ultimately converging into a small black dot in the universe.
He Tiantian thought she was going to die, but unexpectedly, as the small world collapsed, a rift wrapped around her primordial spirit and carried it out.
When she reappeared, she was on Terra King Star, in the Great Xia Country.
Her primordial spirit reincarnated there, born with extraordinary qualities.
She entered Chang’an Academy at eighteen, and after graduation, was specially recruited by the Heaven-Piercing Palace on Immortal King Star.
At present, Great Xia Country prioritizes the development of technological civilization, while Immortal King Star focuses on cultivation civilization.
When Little Kirin and the others arrived on Immortal King Star, they casually asked around.
Unexpectedly, they found someone named He Tiantian in the Heaven-Piercing Palace.
When Little Kirin first saw He Tiantian, he recognized her immediately.
Though they were still children when they parted, Little Kirin remembered He Tiantian’s scent.
When they met, He Tiantian cried, almost collapsing.
Times changed drastically, and everything felt different.
She thought she would never see Little Kirin and Long Fei again, but unexpectedly, Little Kirin appeared before her.
He Tiantian steadied her trembling heart, quickly stood up, and said tearfully to Long Fei, "Oh Uncle Long, there’s so much I have to tell you and Aunt Lin."
"Do you mean Grandfather?"
Long Fei furrowed his brow.
He Tiantian nodded and told him, "When Grandfather passed, I personally performed rites for him and laid him to rest. Also, Grandfather Lin and the others, I was the one to see them off. Grandfather Long wanted me to tell you that he truly loved Widow Wang. In the end, he and Widow Wang ended up together, and he divided half of the Long Family assets with her, hoping you wouldn’t mind. The other half, since he couldn’t wait for you to come back, he finally donated to Longjiawan Village."
Little Kirin and his group were prepared to feel saddened, but hearing Little Tiantian’s words made them almost burst into laughter.
Long Fei laughed slightly too, thinking that indeed, this was the message grandfather left.
Lin Yingying and Lin Shanshan murmured inside for a while before coming out together.
Seeing He Tiantian, Lin Yingying recognized the young girl at once.
Lin Shanshan smiled and pulled He Tiantian over, deliberately asking Lin Yingying, "Sister, do you still recognize her?"
"How could I not!"
Lin Yingying held He Tiantian, her eyes teary with joy.
"Aunt Lin!"
He Tiantian, just having composed herself, began crying again and embraced Lin Yingying.
After thirty thousand years, only she was left.
Such loneliness, even immortals find it hard to bear.
Meeting old friends again, seeing familiar faces, it’s hard to calm such feelings quickly.
Lin Yingying, having a soft spot in her heart, cried along when Tiantian did.
He Tiantian shared Lin Yingying’s parents’ last words while sobbing, which made Lin Shanshan cry too.
Long Fei watched, finding this amusing.
Originally, he only needed to comfort one woman; now it was three.
Lin Yingying tricked Lin Shanshan, as she did not transcend the Immortal Tribulation, and thus had no need to sever any emotional ties.
She left when her parents were still alive.
This had always been a knot in her heart; now it was finally unraveled.
These kids stayed in front of Long Fei’s courtyard throughout the night.
Long Fei took out some stored goods from his storage ring and prepared some ancestral crocodile meat barbecue for them, accompanied by some Meng Po Soup.
Little Qing inquired of Long Fei, "Dad, did the witch not return with you?"
The last time Asu tormented her miserably by impersonating a Bodhisattva and having Monk Fahai from South Yangtze trap her and Bai Suzhen under a pagoda.
She harbored great resentment and intended to return to settle the score with Asu.
Long Fei laughed and said to her, "Asu remained in the Netherworld to cultivate; you probably won’t see her for quite a while. When she returns, I’ll make sure she apologizes to you."
Little Qing took a sip of Meng Po Soup, stubbornly replied, "I don’t need Dad to intervene; I’ll handle her myself."
Long Fei asked her, "What about Bai Suzhen and Xu Xuan?"
Little Qing said, "They were both taken into the Immortal Realm by the Buddhist Sect."
Little Kirin chimed in, "By the time we arrived, they had already left. Only Little Qing was trapped under the pagoda."
Long Fei looked at them and said, "Looks like I’ll also have to take you all into the Immortal Realm, as there are some karmic ties you need to resolve."
Everyone’s eyes widened, excitedly preparing to shout out.
But the effects of the Meng Po Soup kicked in, causing their heads to tilt as they rolled down beside the fire, falling asleep.
