Chapter 28: Bai Lian, I’m Here Waiting for You to Come Back

That day.

A strange girl accidentally stumbled into a garden that had been sealed off for three thousand years.

Just like a sharp nail piercing through a thick layer of ice.

Instantly, countless cracks started to spread in all directions from the broken opening in the center!

A gentle white light flowed out from the cracks, quickly dispersing the frightening darkness of the night.

Therefore,

The ice melted.

The cold was dispersed.

Time frozen had begun to flow again at this moment.

Is this what it feels like to be alive?

Sun Fuguang held his heart, not knowing how to express how he felt.

Very empty.

It’s as if something is missing.

But it’s full.

Filled up with an inexplicable emotion to the brim, ready to spill out at any moment.

Sun Fuguang just stared blankly at the gradually fading figure of Bai Lian.

The girl was small.

Only his height barely exceeded half of his.

That girl’s strength was not strong either.

He guessed she was only at the Transcendency Stage, not even qualified to be cannon fodder in the war three thousand years ago.

The girl looked young, not old.

But the faint halo emanating from her made Sun Fuguang remember the ancestor beast.

Actually…

“It really looks alike.”

Sun Fuguang’s body was trembling slightly.

Although his appearance had completely changed, and his strength was no longer what it used to be, how different was he now compared to when he was young?

The same people who were lost.

The same people who were hit hard.

The same people who hated themselves for not having the ability.

Finally, he met a gentle person at his most helpless time.

Sun Fuguang felt the gentle spring breeze gushing from all corners of the world, and the previously dull world gradually had other colors.

The grass is green.

The soil is brown.

The flowers are red.

Bai Lian is white!

“Taoist friend!”

Sun Fuguang shouted for Bai Lian who was about to disappear from his sight.

Bai Lian turned around, and the flame from the Nightless Lamp illuminated her eyes an ethereal purple.

“Does Master Sun have anything else to say?”

“I…”

Sun Fuguang opened his mouth.

He suddenly realized it would be difficult to make Bai Lian change her mind, but it didn’t matter; he still had to say what he wanted to say.

He bowed slightly and made a hand gesture with his right hand, the greeting of the Shangyang Immortal Sect.

“I will always be here waiting for you, friend. If you change your mind, you can come back anytime.”

Bai Lian, “… ”

She could tell that Sun Fuguang was different from before.

This is very good.

But…

Humph.

（゜∇°)凸

Bai Lian had the corners of her mouth turned up in a faint smile.

I, Bai Lian, live my life, not seeking to be grand and impressive, not seeking to shake the world, but to act from the heart!

Let’s go!

Bai Lian turned away without a hint of nostalgia, swaying her right hand gently in a goodbye gesture as light and delicate as reeds swaying in the wind.

“See you later!”

The gentle voice drifted into Sun Fuguang’s ears with the wind.

“…”

Sun Fuguang blinked.

Actually, this was a result he had expected long ago, but Bai Lian’s calmness was still beyond his expectations.

Sun Fuguang shook his head with a smile.

Since that is the case, he can’t just sit here either. He can’t let the resentment he left behind become a monster wreaking havoc on Mingzhou.

Even if he is stranded in his own Tao Heart, he will certainly have something he can do!

After all,

“This is my Tao Heart.”

Sun Fuguang lifted his head again.

He saw Bai Lian, with her back to him, already determinedly heading towards the world engulfed in a red glow and an unending black mist.

So, farewell then my friend, until we meet again!

Sun Fuguang also lifted his right hand and waved it lightly.

…

The Nightless Lamp is a wooden lamp hung from a slender stick.

This wood is not ordinary wood.

The instructions say it is made with Night Soulwood as the main material.

When used, the magical power stored in Night Soulwood is spread in all directions by the flame.

Thus, all the false illusions that stand in front of the user will be dispelled.

Of course.

Bai Lian knows that this “all” is just an exaggeration.

Because Night Soulwood is just a medium-grade immortal material, it is not something rare for slightly wealthier Immortals.

She walked forward in the lavender light emitted by the Nightless Lamp.

She traveled this road very calmly.

She didn’t encounter any attack from monsters, nor did she see anything strange.

Just that the road is too long, she has been walking for a long time yet still can’t see the end.

Besides the candlelight from the Nightless Lamp, the only thing that accompanied her was the increasingly frenzied blood light above her head.

Bai Lian had a bit of a headache.

The system told her that looking for another path was a better option with less risk.

But who can guarantee that the path she is taking now is the one indicated by the system?

The system is not omnipotent either; many times she has encountered danger, but the system never popped up to warn her.

Bai Lian now only wished she could walk out before the Nightless Lamp was extinguished.

Otherwise, even if there was Qianhuan Real Eyes present, she would still very likely get lost in this dark wilderness.

She walked and walked.

As she walked, suddenly she discovered something unusual.

“The wind?”

Bai Lian stopped.

She was in a world of chaos, where even footsteps could not be heard. But the sudden sobbing sound had a strangely familiar feeling to it.

Not afraid of changes, just afraid of staying the same!

Bai Lian ran quickly towards the source of the wind.

She gradually found herself walking on an upward path.

Walking and walking, the endless night was trampled under her feet.

Walking along, the blood tide that originally spread over her head was crushed beneath her feet.

Last.

Bai Lian emerged from a thick white cloud.

In that moment, she was like a soaring bird released from its bonds!

Now,

The flames of the Nightless Lamp quietly extinguished.

It doesn’t matter anymore.

This world is no longer filthy; it is now as peaceful as any quiet night Bai Lian has ever seen.

Bai Lian, standing on nothingness, lifted her head.

A soul-shaking picture slowly appeared before her eyes.

Starry sky.

That’s a dazzling starry sky!

Bai Lian saw a long river shimmering with countless golden dots on a deep blue canvas.

She stopped breathing and pressed her chest excitedly.

Before this, she had seen various starry skies, more resplendent and profound than today’s one. But none of those times ever made her feel such moved emotions in her heart.

Come out.

“I made it out! I’m finally free!”

Bai Lian raised her hands in victory, nearly shouting out in excitement.

Her only regret? The thought that no one would be there to share the beauty of this night with her.

But it didn’t matter.

Now that she had escaped that strange place, she could find her master, and together they could go to the ruins of the Shangyang Immortal Sect to destroy the Hate Cauldron.

Once that was done, she and her master could enjoy the exotic flavors before returning to Qiongming Peak to reunite with the third Martial Sister.

The Dance Maiden’s fiery performance from the Sand Region seemed enticing, but—

Forget it. Let’s not watch that. She didn’t want to anger her master.

Instead, she would wander around, grab a few snacks, and watch a show. It sounded perfect!

For a moment, Bai Lian lowered her hand from her chest.

She took a moment to survey her surroundings.

At first glance, she was stunned.

In the distance, a fire dragon appeared on the horizon.

As her gaze sharpened, she realized it wasn’t a fire dragon, but a group of imposing cultivators.

Their aura was terrifying.

Occasionally, they shouted, “Today, Bai Lian must die!”

“?!”

Bai Lian’s expression morphed into confusion.

Who were these people?

Her eyes quickly darted to another direction, only to catch sight of something strange: a round ball pulsating with blue, brown, and black light.

The ball kept expanding, blocking her view.

But thanks to her Qianhuan Real Eyes, she could still see through the obstruction.

At the center of it, she spotted a bloodied cultivator dressed in torn clothes.

She didn’t know this person.

Her gaze shifted, and her eyes widened in shock as she saw something else.

“Master!”

It was unmistakable.

The person struggling against the brown mist was none other than her master, clutching her tightly in his arms.

“Huh?”

Bai Lian reached out to touch her own body.

It felt soft and real. Was this the soul coming out?

She turned back to her master, and a sinking feeling settled in her chest.

“What… is going on?”

She stared in disbelief as she saw her master… nibbling on her ear.

Not only that—his hand was firmly pressing down on her butt!

That’s too much!

Bai Lian blushed and squirmed uncomfortably, feeling as if ants were crawling all over her.

But now wasn’t the time to be embarrassed.

Even though she didn’t believe her master would perish, she couldn’t stand to watch him suffer because of her.

She could bear the pain herself!

With determination, Bai Lian mobilized her inner energy, ready to rush back to her master’s side.

Then, something unexpected happened.

“What’s happening?”

Bai Lian was astonished to find herself trapped by an invisible membrane beneath her feet.

No matter what she tried—her fingers, fists, feet, or even various objects—nothing could puncture it.

Her mind raced.

If she couldn’t break through this membrane, how could she do anything else?

No, she couldn’t rush this.

Taking a deep breath, she calmed herself. Rushing would only make things worse. She needed to think clearly.

She took out the storage pendant from her chest and started going through its contents, searching for something useful.

Before she could find an answer, the “fire dragon” of cultivators from the Path of Wanjie Dharma arrived near the time-space turbulence protected by Erosion Sand.

“Here we are!”

The shout interrupted Bai Lian’s search.

She immediately looked down and saw she was only a few miles away from them, but they seemed unaware of her presence.

The group floated in midair, their murderous intent so palpable it almost felt like a physical force, aimed squarely at her master and herself inside the protective sphere.

“Oh no!”

Sweat began to bead on Bai Lian’s forehead.

She wasn’t worried about her master being killed by these cultivators.

But if her master had to kill them, she would have to use her true strength.

The Tide of Resentment would draw the attention of the East Divine Land. If someone reported her master’s actions to Yue Wuyang, it would all be over.

That wasn’t the future Bai Lian wanted to see.

She had already risked her life to stop Jiang Jing once. She wouldn’t hesitate to do so again.

With that resolve, she drew the Dirt Free Sword and slashed, sending a moon-like beam of light hurtling toward the group.

【Moon Sword Formula!】

“Come on! Bai Lian is here!”

The explosion was deafening.

A storm of terror spread for miles, shaking the transparent film she stood on.

But the group of cultivators didn’t even flinch.

Bai Lian froze.

The Moon Sword Formula was supposed to be her strongest move.

It looked like she had only one option left.

She quickly summoned two lower-grade Immortal Spirit Stones and absorbed their power.

She had grown accustomed to this process, but she knew her master would need to create another body for her later.

No way out now.

After all, she was still a rookie.

Though she had worked hard to reach the Transcendency Stage in just six years, if others didn’t believe she was the reincarnation of an Immortal Emperor, they’d try to snatch her up for study.

It wasn’t nearly enough strength.

Her opponents were Immortals, Immortal Emperors, and the Supreme beings who could defeat Immortal Heavenly Lords.

Even if she were ten thousand times stronger, the road ahead would remain just as difficult.

But…

So what?

Was she going to abandon her master and flee just because the road was hard?

No.

She wasn’t that person anymore.

She was foolish… but she was happily foolish.

“Master, wait for me to come back!”

Bai Lian’s hands gripped the Immortal Spirit Stones tightly, their soft white light illuminating her face.

In that moment, she began to activate the True Secret of 500 Million Dharma Bodies.

Mystical runes appeared within her meridians as spirit Qi surged through her, transforming her into a machine running at full power.

Doodle Doodle…

The spirit power from the Immortal Spirit Stones flowed into her body at an astonishing rate.

Bai Lian stood still, waiting for the moment she could spread her wings and gain the power to slay immortals.

The tearing pain could no longer affect her.

She was using her physical pain to ward off the heartache—and it was worth it.

But then, something strange happened.

“It’s no use doing that.”

“Who?”

Bai Lian’s body tensed, and she spun around sharply in the direction of the voice.

Suddenly, a young man in blue appeared ten meters away from her.

She hadn’t sensed his arrival at all.

Impossible!

A deep fear surged within her.

Even an Immortal couldn’t escape her Divine Sense.

Was this person on the level of an Immortal Emperor?

“!?”

Bai Lian froze.

There was no hope of resistance if this was the case—she couldn’t win.

“Don’t panic.” The young man smiled, holding a handful of daisies as he gently patted a blue ox. “The reason you couldn’t sense my presence is because we’re in different times.”

“Hmm?”

Bai Lian was stunned.

The young man continued, “This is the land vein of Mingzhou. Time here is chaotic. You couldn’t return because you didn’t find the right time.”

Bai Lian asked urgently, “How do I find the right time?”

The young man shook his head, “Wait.”

Bai Lian opened her mouth to respond.

“How long?”

“I don’t know. Maybe the next moment, maybe the next year.”

“…”

This was bad.

Bai Lian’s hands fell to her sides, and she stopped her cultivation method, standing still as though her soul had left her body.

Why her?

She couldn’t understand.

According to what the young man said, if she were unlucky, she might never return.

If that happened, her Martial Sisters would be heartbroken.

And her master… her master would be devastated.

Her expression grew increasingly complex.

She couldn’t accept such a future.

It felt absurd.

Because of an inexplicable accident, her chance to save her master was destroyed.

What did everything she had done mean?

What about the close bond she had built with her master?

Would she end up like Sun Fuguang, stuck in a time-disordered world, lamenting life’s regrets?

No!

Bai Lian’s anger flared.

She wouldn’t accept this.

Fueled by rage, she rallied once more.

She had walked too far to let it all be forgotten. As long as she kept moving, the road would always stretch ahead!

Bai Lian began searching for an escape from the Mingzhou veins, keeping an eye on her master’s situation.

She just hoped her master could hide her true identity for as long as possible.

And of course, she hoped to go out and deal with anyone who dared to disrespect her master!

The group of cultivators who had arrived didn’t attack immediately.

Instead, they began discussing her master and her.

“Why are there two Bai Lians?”

Someone asked in surprise.

Others frowned. Two Bai Lians?

One person shook his head. “There’s a difference. The shorter one looks immature in every way—likely an avatar.”

“Hmm.”

Everyone agreed—it made sense.

“?!”

Bai Lian stopped in her tracks.

She was her own avatar?

Before she could react, she overheard them plotting to form a magic array to deal with her master.

They were quick, quickly assigning tasks to each member.

Though they initially hesitated, a message from He Bukong urged them to act now.

This was a rare opportunity that couldn’t be missed.

“Surround and kill Bai Lian today!”

“Today is the day of the Immortal Emperor’s death!”

“Everything is empty!”

Ula Ula.

The thunderous cry immediately held Bai Lian in check.

“Wait a minute, you guys have charged to the wrong place. I’m Bai Lian, don’t touch my master. If you have the guts, come and charge at me!”

In that split second, the dozen descending Immortals launched an attack against An Lan, who was enveloped by Erosion Sand.

Five-colored rainbow light illuminated the sky.

These supernatural powers were already very powerful, and after being used, they fused together due to the magic array, releasing a force several times that of usual.

“Great!” He Bukong clenched his fist tightly.

He won the bet!

Before he died, people from the Path of Wanjie Dharma rushed over; this truly was a blessing for him. Afterward, he only needed to wait quietly for Bai Lian to be killed by being surrounded on both sides.

He couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

“Haha, Bai Lian, you’re finally gonna die, haha, you died, there must be a lot of people who would thank me.”

“…”

He Bukong was still laughing.

“I don’t know what your avatar is worth to you, but I’m not interested in knowing. Even if you are unmatched in your strategy, once a person dies, all of your plans become useless.”

“…”

“Don’t worry, after killing you, I won’t be harsh with your master and Martial Sisters. After all, I just want that pearl.”

“…”

Do I have to be grateful to you?

Bai Lian’s eyes were burning, and her fists were clenched tight.

If she could break out now, she would definitely scatter He Bukong’s ashes!

Seeing those magical spells about to fall upon her master, a roar of anger suddenly came from the brilliant light.

“Been saying, been saying, been saying… I have put up with you guys for long enough! Get out. All of you get out!”

That was clearly the master’s voice.

Bai Lian had never heard her master lose control like this before. She leaned back in surprise.

Then, she saw a pale blue light beam suddenly shoot out from her master.

That light was not ordinary.

It was a lance.

It was a sword.

It was an unrivaled sharpness.

Under its impact, chaotic time became even more chaotic, shattered space became even more shattered, and no supernatural magic could ward off its impact.

He Bukong’s body was instantly annihilated, and his soul was shattered in less than a breath of time.

The members of the Path of Wanjie Dharma who came afterward didn’t fare much better either.

The few standing at the very front were sucked into the chaotic space-time without a sound, leaving not even a trace.

The few people standing behind were able to partially deflect the impact due to their shields. Even though they were all covered in blood, they were still able to keep their bodies intact.

Someone shouted crazily.

“Impossible, impossible, why can you still launch a counterattack against Erosion Sand’s erosion?”

Someone else suddenly clutched his head.

“I understand, I completely understand now– You weren’t an Immortal Emperor in your past life, you were a Heavenly Lord. It’s only a Heavenly Lord who can rely on their multiple ways of the Great Tao to block Erosion Sand.”

Heavenly Lord.

These seemingly ordinary two words are the heaviest symbols in the world.

When it emerged, no one could stand still in this pitch-black wilderness anymore.

“Monster, Bai Lian, you are a monster!”

“I don’t want to die, run, run fast.”

There was one person leading the way and many more followed.

In no time, even He Bukong had abandoned half his soul and hurriedly fled to the depths of the Sand Region.

The endless night resumed its normal state.

An Lan panted heavily, as her chest rubbed against Bai Lian’s chest with each movement.

However, she was no longer paying attention to it.

She only knew that she had finally calmed down and that she could wait quietly for Bai Lian to return.

She gently stroked Bai Lian’s cheek, saying, “You’ll come back, right?”
