Old Lady Yin looked at her father and said sadly, “Is there no other way?”
“Mom,” said Yin Jinye, “since ancient times, the cultivation path is like this. If you can make breakthrough, your longevity will increase. If you can’t, you’d only mourn for your old age until you die.”
If there was a way out, those cultivators who had died of age could keep making breakthroughs.
Rong Yi patted Old Lady Yin on the shoulder and said, “Mom, let grandpa and grandma take some rest. We’ll talk about it later.”
Old Lady Yin nodded, “Mother, let me take you to have some rest first.”
Old Lady Min then stood up to support the old man.
The old man immediately pushed her aside, “I’m married. Please show some respect.”
Old Lady Min, “…”
The old man took Rong Yi by the hand. “Dan, let’s hang out. I’ll buy you your favorite xuan spiritual fruit.”
Rong Yi, “…”
Mistaken again!
Hearing that, Old Lady Min reddened her eyes, “Fortunately your father still remembers I like eating xuan spiritual fruit.”
Old Lady Yin, with a pair of red eyes, supported her mother and went to the backyard.
As for the old man, Rong Yi coaxed him to the backyard.
Seeing the old man like this, Bu Qi was a little touched, “My senior brother Immortal Yunyi is also approaching his death. If he cannot overpower his doom and ascend, he will be like the old lord…”
Xiang Lv sighed, “So is my shifu. I really hope this day will never come. But on thinking of those mortals who only have dozens of years to live, I feel that actually we have lived long enough.”
Bu Qi chuckled. “Maybe we will also be like that, or even worse.”
Xiang Lv asked, “How old are you?”
“I’m afraid you’d be jealous if I tell you.”
“You are my senior brother and look much younger than me, I am already jealous.”
Bu Qi turned to look at Yin Jinye with a smile, “My lord, may I know your age?”
Yin Jinye who was thinking of something took a look at them, “Why don’t you ask your shifu’s age?”
Xiang Lu was curious and asked, “Yes, how old is our shifu? He should be young, right? At least judging by his temper, he shouldn’t be very old.”
“I think maybe at most two hundred years old or so. It is already a miracle to make it to the ninth level of the Mating Phase at that age through the whole cultivation world.”
“He is the genius among the geniuses.” Xiang Lv thought it was a blessing for him to take such a master as his shifu.
Bu Qi then asked Yin Jinye, “So, how old is our shifu?”
“Twenty-five.”
He didn’t take into account the time Rong Yi’s body had transmigrated back to 600 years ago. In terms of his soul, Rong Yi was really only 25 years old.
Xiang Lv, “!!!!!”
Bu Qi, “!!!!!”
Should they suspect that whether their shifu is still human?
Xiang Lv asked Bu Qi, “Senior brother, which level was your at when you were twenty five?”
Bu Qi said, “Level five of Base Practicing.”
“I was only at the entry level of that.”
“I am a mutant thunder-fire spiritual root, so my cultivation speed is a little faster than you.” Bu Qi remembered that before, his peers all praised that he was a rare genius and he felt quite complacent at the time. But compared with Rong Yi, he was nothing at all.
Xiang Lv walked out of the hall, “We’d better go back to cultivate. I don’t want to still stay at my Mahayana phase while our shifu has ascended.”
After they left, the one that went to follow Rong Weiyi came back to report, “Master, the one you let us follow is now in Xinggong Inn.”
“Is there anyone else beside him?” Yin Jinye asked.
“No, we have asked the shopkeeper. That man has checked in seven days ago. He would go out in the early morning and come back late at night, all by himself. Except asking the waiter to clean his room, he never talked to anyone else. And this morning, a white-haired man sent him a letter. He asked the waiter to give it to him. After reading it, he hurriedly went out to chase that man, and didn’t come back until just now.”
Yin Jinye narrowed his eyes, “Does the shopkeeper know his name?”
“I don’t know.”
“You keep following him. Let me know as soon as there’s any news.”
That man replied, “My Lord, our cultivation is not as high as his, if he wants to get rid of us, it’s as easy as turning his hand over.”
“If he shakes you off, stay at the inn till he returns.”
“Got it.”
Then Yin Jinye got up and went to the Suqian courtyard, he saw that his grandfather was having a great time with his children.
As the children saw Yin Jinye, they immediately shouted, “Father…”
The old man also called, “Father…”
Yin Jinye corrected him, “Grandpa, you can’t call me father.”
“Father…” He called him cheerfully again.
Yin Jinye, “…”
Rong Yi, who was watching the children playing, said with a smile, “He can’t remember things now. It’s no use correcting him. Why not let him live every day happily?”
Yin Jinye then asked through sound transmission, “Is there also no way of prolonging one’s life in your world?”
“No.”Rong Yi replied through sound transmission, “This is the rules of heavenly path. No one has the power to change it, not even the immortals.”
“…” Yin Jinye was clear that it couldn’t be changed, but he still wanted to ask, after all his grandpa had ever been so good to him.
Rong Yi thought for a while and said, “In fact, this thing is not absolute.”
Yin Jinye hurriedly asked, “Do you have any method?”
Rong Yi rubbed his chin. “I think someone could make it. He might be able to help your grandpa.”
“Who is it?”
Rong Yi turned his head to look in the direction of some courtyard. “Godfather Pacero, who lives in the backyard of our house.”
