80 Years Of Signing-In At The Cold Palace, I Am Unrivalled

Chapter 164 - Dachun’s Revelation


Chapter 164: Dachun’s Revelation

Lin Jiufeng followed Dachun to his residence.

At the foot of a green mountain, by the lake, in a courtyard.

Only Dachun, his wife, and their young grandson lived here.

Upon Lin Jiufeng’s arrival, Dachun’s wife immediately went to prepare the food and wine. The child looked at Lin Jiufeng with a confused look. He then started talking gibberish.

Lin Jiufeng put the white cat down. The child was immediately attracted by the beautiful and flawless white cat. He chased after the white cat as his giggles filled the quaint abode.

Dachun looked at him lovingly before inviting Lin Jiufeng into the house.

“Only the three of you live here?” Lin Jiufeng asked.

“Yes, I stayed here to guard my mother’s tomb. My wife accompanied me here and she’s also taking care of my pitiful grandson,” Dachun replied.

“Pitiful?” Lin Jiufeng looked at the child playing with the white cat.

He couldn’t help but be asked curiously.

“His parents died on Jiangnan Road for the dynasty. He was just born when they were swallowed by the demonic creatures that appeared from out of nowhere. When I found them, it was already too late. I could only save the child.” Dachun sighed.

Lin Jiufeng looked at Dachun, ripples appeared in his heart.

First, his old mother passed away.

Then, his children died…

It was no wonder that Dachun’s looked so dispirited both physically and mentally.

“I’ve already dealt with those demonic creatures. The Ten Thousand Buddha Sacred Tower has collapsed, and every demonic creature in Jiangnan is dead.” Lin Jiufeng could only say these words as a form of consolation.

Dachun’s eyes turned slightly red as he said, “Your Royal Highness is the guardian deity of the Yuhua God Dynasty and the people of the world! Although the people do not know of Your Royal Highness’s heroic deeds, they have all received Your Royal Highness’s grace…”

Lin Jiufeng waved his hand in dismissal.

“I’m also a member of the Yuhua God Dynasty’s royal family…”

“When I was young, I enjoyed glory and wealth that others would never be able to enjoy in their entire lives. It’s only natural that I protect the people of this land now that I am capable enough to do so…”

“But it truly is a pity that the sword energy that I left in your body didn’t save the child’s parents.”

It was only then that Dachun knew that Lin Jiufeng had left a streak of sword energy in him.

Of course, Dachun immediately knew that the streak of sword energy was there to protect him.

It has been 30 years, but he actually didn’t notice its presence at all.

“Your Royal Highness—” Dachun was so touched that he didn’t know what to say.

Lin Jiufeng chuckled and said, “Let’s drink a lot tonight…”

Dachun nodded and said, “I’ve been constantly thinking about when I can drink with Your Royal Highness once again. Now that you are here to drink with me personally, I don’t have any more regrets left in this life of mine.”

“You are a Human God expert, you can live for a long time,” Lin Jiufeng said.

“The world is changing rapidly, Your Royal Highness…”

“What I’ve seen so far has already changed my outlook in life.”

“I don’t want to become famous, nor do I want to become a powerful cultivator. I only want to spend the rest of my life in peace with my wife and also raise that kid…”

“I have no other wishes,” Dachun said.

Lin Jiufeng looked at Dachun.

Dachun was younger than him, and both of them walked on different paths.

Lin Jiufeng pursued the peak of cultivation.

But he had always been at the peak and had always desired even greater heights.

Dachun walked on the path of the common people.

He married and had descendants. After experiencing the ups and downs of life, although he also had the cultivation base of a Human God and can still live for a thousand years, his mentality had long changed. He no longer had the vigor of his youth.

He had become an old man.

While Lin Jiufeng was still a young man.

“The sword energy that I left in you that day will continue to exist. The stronger I become, that sword energy will also become stronger. Therefore, I shall continue to leave it with you. Treat it as your family’s trump card. It might be useful in the future,” Lin Jiufeng said to Dachun.

Lin Jiufeng had put a lot of thought into that sword energy that he gave to Dachun. The reason why it remained in existence even after 30 years was that Lin Jiufeng has always remained powerful and was also constantly becoming stronger.

The sword energy would also become increasingly powerful as Lin Jiufeng became stronger.

And the might of that streak of sword energy was equivalent to Lin Jiufeng’s fully-powered strike.

As long as it wasn’t removed or activated, Dachun would always have it as his trump card.

“Your Royal Highness, let’s drink…” Dachun looked at Lin Jiufeng gratefully.

Coincidentally, his wife was finally done preparing the food and wine.

She brought them out and presented them to the two.

Lin Jiufeng nodded at Dachun’s wife.

She was a very gentle woman.

She was also in her seventies, but she looked to be only 40 years old—beautiful, and kind.

After pouring wine for both Lin Jiufeng and Dachun, she retreated to the side to take care of her grandson.

“You gave her a lot of spiritual medicines?” Lin Jiufeng asked.

“Yes, I gave her a lot of those…”

“Back then, I gathered a lot of spiritual medicines because I originally wanted to treat my mother’s body…”

“But the cycle of life, death, illness, and reincarnation isn’t something that I can change. She’s already at the end of her life and those spiritual medicines couldn’t possibly save her anymore.”

“Thus, I gave all of them to my wife for her to consume.” Dachun drank a cup of wine.

“I’ve lost my old mother, my youngest son, and my daughter-in-law!”

“I won’t be able to endure it if I also lost my wife!”‘

“I promised her that as long as I live—I will support her—and we shall support each other till death do us part,” Dachun said.

Lin Jiufeng drank his wine and said softly, “Why don’t you just let her cultivate?”

“In this brand-new era, although she might not become a powerful powerhouse, you can at least help her make a breakthrough into the Martial Sage Realm…”

“If you do that then she can continue to stay by your side.”

“I’m working hard on that too, but she’s already in her seventies. It’s difficult for her to cultivate now that she’s past her prime age…” Dachun shook his head.

This brand-new era was bound to be a great era.

But not everything could be resolved just because the world was slowly recovering its spiritual energy.

Both Lin Jiufeng and Dachun enjoyed each other’s company as they drank and talked about all sorts of topics.

Of course, what they mostly talked about were just family matters and other trivial matters.

Just like before…

Dachun would talk while Lin Jiufeng listened.

The scene was just like back in the Cold Palace…

Dachun told Lin Jiufeng many trivial matters, letting Lin Jiufeng feel that he was still a member of the mortal realm.

It seemed as if nothing had changed.

Dachun and Lin Jiufeng talked about trivial matters.

If it was in the past, Lin Jiufeng wouldn’t even listen to such things, nor would he be bothered by them.

This was because the gap between Lin Jiufeng and those trivial matters was huge.

But because it was Dachun who was talking, Lin Jiufeng obediently listened.

Lin Jiufeng cultivated in seclusion all this time.

Those he came into contact with were all sorts of powerhouses, all of whom were high and mighty. They weren’t humble at all.

It has been a long time since Lin Jiufeng felt and heard of the struggles in the mortal world.

But today, Dachun made Lin Jiufeng realize that the world did not only belong to cultivators.

In addition, one would still have to return to the mortal realm after their long seclusion.

Lin Jiufeng relished what he heard and felt.

“Your Royal Highness. According to what we have always done in the past, I should tell you some big things after I’m done with these trivial matters.” Dachun’s cheeks were red as he said with a smile.

“I’m listening.” Lin Jiufeng gulped down the wine in his cup.

“Although I am practically living in seclusion here, I still know a little about the outside world.”

“We are at the edge of Jiangnan’s borders, close to the Central Plains. Since I’m this close to the borders, I’ve heard a lot of news. But the biggest thing I’ve heard is about the internal strife between the various Dao sects,” Dachun said.

Lin Jiufeng raised his brows and looked at Dachun.

Internal strife in the Dao Sects?

“I’m not sure about the specifics. After all, Dao sects are divided into many categories. For example, the Quan Zhen Sect and the Primordial Chaos Dao Sect. They could be considered a member of the Dao sects, but they technically belong in two different categories.”

“The Quan Zhen Sect is of the same lineage as the traditional Dao sects like Mount Longhu, the Five-Rice Sect, and the Zenith Heaven Path Sect…”

“Their ancestors are all cultivators of the Dao sects. In other words, they are all senior brothers, martial uncles, or even martial nephews.”

“As for the Dao sects like the Primordial Chaos Dao Sect, their founders were rogue cultivators with incomprehensibly high cultivation bases…”

“They are the complete opposite of these traditional Daoist sects.”

“The so-called ‘internal strife’ is the result of the grudges between these traditional Daoist sects.” Dachun explained.

“I see…” Lin Jiufeng finally understood.
