After hesitating for a mont, Li An still decided to et with Li Nianxue.
Since the battle on Nanfu Island back then, he hadn’t had the opportunity to contact Tan Qingxue, although he later heard from reliable sources that Tan Qingxue had lost all her mories, he hadn’t verified it personally.
The reason he wanted to kill Tan Qingxue back then was because she had guessed part of his secrets and even harbored greed towards him when becoming immortal.
Although she spared Li An due to past sentints when they were on Nanfu Island, Li An still harbored murderous intent.
After all, his most fundantal secret was not for anyone to covet!
Until now, Li An’s attitude towards her remained unchanged. If she still posed a threat to Li An... it would be better to end her.
To prevent endless troubles.
"Greetings, Supre!"
In the main hall, Li Nianxue saw Li An erge and was extrely excited, hurriedly saluting.
The last ti Li An saw her was a thousand years ago, when she was outstanding among the fifth-generation disciples, extraordinarily gifted, admired by all, and still had the deanor of a young girl. Now, a thousand years later, she possessed considerable maturity but still maintained a youthful appearance. Her cultivation level was quite high, having reached the Tribulation Crossing Stage, and she was even about to beco immortal.
With just one look, Li An understood she hadn’t eliminated the many Immortal Dao materials within her but had followed the so-called "pseudo-immortal path."
Not that she didn’t want to; after Li Yunxiao died, Tianchenzi spoiled her too much, giving her all kinds of rare treasures, inadvertently harming her, making it impossible for her to escape from the pseudo-immortal path, hence losing the chance to flee.
When Tianchenzi targeted Li An on Immortal Mountain Island back then, it was due to this issue.
And, seeing Li An, Li Nianxue was extrely respectful, with a complex emotion in her heart, tinged with admiration.
When she first saw Li An, he was just an elder of Evergreen Peak with no status, posted on Nanfu Island, completely unnoticed, but now, Li An had returned from the Exotic Realm and attained the status of Supre.
It was indeed legendary.
"Miss Nianxue, do you have any important matters for ?" Li An inquired.
"To report to Supre, the junior has one thing to ask..."
Li Nianxue slightly gritted her teeth and said, "I want to ask the senior to et with my mother."
She didn’t wait for Li An to ask and started to explain, "Back when my mother was on Nanfu Island, she encountered an accident which caused her to lose much of her mory... Even , even she doesn’t rember, but she still rembers, rembers Uncle Li’s na."
Her voice trailed off.
Li An couldn’t help but feel wary. Did Tan Qingxue truly want to die? Actually daring to rember him... No, he must go and see, if the situation isn’t right, he couldn’t be blad for being ruthless.
"Therefore, Nianxue wants to invite the Supre to see my mother, maybe she can rember sothing..."
Li An nodded, "Alright."
Li Nianxue was imdiately overjoyed.
...
On Demon Ancestor Peak, the scenery was superb, but it was extrely deserted.
Back when Dao Sect was at its peak, only Ancestor Master Wang Ji and Tan Qingxue were there, no one else. Now that Ancestor Master Wang Ji was nowhere to be found, only Tan Qingxue and Li Nianxue relied on each other.
At the top of Demon Ancestor Peak, there were no Daoist Palace Halls but a stone cave protected by a great formation, which was where Ancestor Master Wang Ji once cultivated. Outside the cave was a Spirit dicine Field with various Spirit dicines, even immortal cranes, and a multitude of vibrant flowers.
"Don’t be afraid, don’t run, immortal cranes..."
Yet, in a pool of water, a woman dressed in white, like a child, chased after immortal cranes in the water. The cranes flapped their wings and flew away, causing the woman to fall into the mud, and when she got up, her face was covered in dirt, furiously sitting on the ground crying.
Li An was taken aback by this scene.
This woman was evidently Tan Qingxue.
He had heard that Tan Qingxue’s Primordial Spirit was severely damaged, leaving her with the intelligence and cognition of a child, and seeing it now, indeed...
It wasn’t inaccurate.
Beside him, Li Nianxue was even more sorrowful, sighing, "My mother has been like this for a thousand years, and this junior truly has no way..."
"I have found many Divine dicines for repairing the Divine Soul, but consuming them is useless. Withered Fate Supre said that before losing her mory, she must have had a great ntal knot, so she sealed her consciousness, burying the last bit of True Spirit deep in her heart. Thus, like a river flowing, the dicines cannot nurture the root of her Primordial Spirit, hence they are useless unless the knot can be untied..."
Tears welled up in her eyes as she spoke and had already gone over to help Tan Qingxue up, saying, "Mother, don’t cry anymore, shall I give you so candy? Let take you back to change clothes..."
"No, I do not want candy, I want the immortal cranes, I want the immortal cranes!"
Tan Qingxue was practically like a tantruming child.
Li An sighed slightly in his heart, approached, and said, "Qingxue."
Just one word.
Tan Qingxue, who was rolling on the ground, suddenly froze, stood up, and looked at Li An.
"Mother! Have you rembered sothing? This is Uncle Li, you ntioned before, Uncle Li is a good person, have you rembered sothing?"
Li Nianxue, seeing this, was excited beyond asure.
"Miss Nianxue, may I reminisce with your esteed mother?" Li An spoke.
Li Nianxue nodded and turned to leave. Before departing, she said, "I... I will go read in the Scripture Pavilion, and I will co back tomorrow."
Over the many years, she already knew that the relationship between Li An and her mother was not simple; they were once husband and wife in the lower realm, and it was fine after losing all her mories; even her father, Li Yunxiao, was forgotten, yet she only rembered Li An... It once made her feel sorrow and anger for her father, and even harbored hatred towards Tan Qingxue, but what could be done?
