Longevity: My Talents Are a Bit Abundant-Chapter 527: The Twin Beauties of Cyan Yang
At this time, in the core area of the Zhou Clan Territory.
Patriarch’s Mansion.
"Is the Song Country really going to be defeated?"
"The Blood Spirit Sect Demon Cultivator from Liang Country, under the lead of that wretched Wu Yulan, is eyeing our Zhou Family of Valley of Beasts with greed. A battle is inevitable!" Wu Yulan’s Demon Foundation is perfect, and she could break through to the Demon Pill at any moment.
This puts pressure on Zhou Bailian.
"Not only did the Cyan Cloud Sect fail to send any support, but they also withdrew their elites, leaving only a few old, weak, sick, and disabled individuals."
Zhou Bailian looked at the Intelligence Jade Scroll, with a trace of worry appearing on her face.
"I am already one hundred and thirty years old, and my lifespan is more than half gone!"
She gazed at her reflection in the mirror, feeling a bit melancholy.
Late Stage of Foundation Establishment is the limit of her Realm Cultivation.
Afterwards, vitality will decline, and the Dao Foundation Spirit Sea will gradually shrink.
"I wonder how that person is doing now!"
At this moment, someone hurriedly flew over.
"Patriarch, good news, great news!"
The rushing Foundation Establishment Cultivator of the Zhou Family called excitedly.
"What good news?"
Zhou Bailian asked.
"Patriarch, your old friend Shen Xuan is here!"
"He is here?"
Zhou Bailian restrained her heart’s violent throbbing.
"Is it really Shen Xuan?"
"It’s True Master Shen."
The Zhou Family Cultivator finally calmed down and said respectfully.
"True Master Shen? Are you saying he’s reached Core Formation?"
"Yes."
Zhou Bailian could no longer hide her delight.
"Let’s go, we’ll meet him!"
Just two steps out, she suddenly remembered something.
"Seventh Uncle, go inform Father and Grandfather, and the Foundation Establishment Cultivators in the clan, to join us."
The Zhou Family Cultivator nodded.
"It should be that way, I’ll go right now."
Once the Zhou Family Cultivator left quickly.
Zhou Bailian returned to the mansion and walked into the bedroom to change her attire.
Wearing a white dress, it radiated a clear brilliance, as if a fairy emerging from a painting, radiant and dazzling.
It was how she dressed when she first met Shen Xuan.
However, the years have left some traces on her pretty face.
"I’m getting old after all!"
Zhou Bailian sighed softly.
Then lightly applied makeup, which made her appear a bit younger.
The unusual gathering of Zhou Family Elders attracted the attention of clansmen.
"Is something significant happening?"
"Just received news, our Zhou Family is welcoming a prestigious guest!"
"What guest?"
"The patriarch’s old friend. A Core Formation True Master from Cyan Cloud Sect!"
"Ah! Which True Master is it?"
"Shen Xuan, True Master Shen."
"Among the twenty true masters of Cyan Cloud Sect, it seems there isn’t Shen Xuan."
"Recently advanced to Core Formation, not yet widely known."
"In that case, doesn’t our Zhou Family in the Valley of Beasts have connections in the Cyan Cloud Sect?"
"Haha, you’re still young. In time, you’ll understand. It’s more than just connections. True Master Shen and our patriarch..."
"A slap" sounded, hitting the speaking Zhou Family Cultivator’s head.
"Don’t talk nonsense. If True Master Shen hears, you’ll get the entire Zhou Family in trouble!"
"Understood, won’t say, won’t say!"
...
Zhou Clan Territory.
The gate opened.
Zhou Bailian led more than a dozen Foundation Establishment Cultivators to line up and welcome.
Zhou Jinxing, the Zhou Family’s Old Ancestor, former patriarch, was among them.
Zhou Bailian said solemnly, "Zhou Bailian, on behalf of Valley of Beasts Zhou Family, congratulates True Master Shen for achieving True Pill."
Behind her, more than a dozen Foundation Establishment Cultivators of the Zhou Family spoke in unison.
"Valley of Beasts Zhou Family congratulates True Master Shen for achieving True Pill!"
The sound echoed through the heavens.
Such a momentum resonated with the secret spies installed near the Valley of Beasts.
Shen Xuan chuckled, having a somewhat amused expression.
He is not True Pill.
He is Golden Core.
Though both are third-stage true masters, their identities and strength are distinctly different.
However, the Zhou Family Cultivators have limited knowledge.
Shen Xuan condensing True Pill has already surpassed their imaginations.
Actually, within the Zhou Family, only Zhou Bailian is qualified to reminisce with Shen Xuan.
"Alright. No need for formalities!"
Shen Xuan gently waved his hand.
A pure force of Pill Essence forcibly stopped the respectful gestures of more than a dozen Foundation Establishment Cultivators in the Zhou Family.
He said gently, "I was passing through here and have some small items, which are of no use to me, and I bestow them to Zhou Bailian."
After speaking, Shen Xuan used Divine Thought.
Three Golden Corpse Beasts all appeared before him.
The Iron-Beaked Sea Crocodile of Tier Two Upper Grade, the Thunder Beast of Tier Two Upper Grade, the Shadow Octopus of Tier Two Middle Grade.
There was also a Corpse Beast of Tier Two Top Grade, the two-headed Flood Dragon Snake, which had some use left, so Shen Xuan kept it.
Despite this.
The Zhou Family Foundation Establishment Cultivators were moved upon seeing Shen Xuan publicly gifting such valuable Golden Corpse Beasts.
However, Shen Xuan’s earlier words were for Zhou Bailian alone, not the Zhou Family.
For a moment, Zhou Bailian was stunned, feeling both surprised and elated, not knowing what to do.
It was the stable Zhou Family’s Old Ancestor who stepped forward, cupped his fist, and saluted: "Zhou Xingyi greets True Master Shen."
Shen Xuan smiled and said, "Old ancestor, you also need not stand on ceremony."
"I, with trepidation and courage, request True Master Shen to enter the valley for a conversation. Zhou Family has prepared some humble wine to cleanse True Master Shen of dust."
Shen Xuan glanced at the Zhou Family’s Old Ancestor with limited lifespan, full of wrinkles.
Finally, he nodded slightly, giving him this face.
...
Accompanied by the Zhou Family’s Old Ancestor, Zhou Bailian, and others, Shen Xuan entered the Zhou Clan Territory.
In a VIP box, Shen Xuan sat at the head of the banquet table.
Next to him were only Zhou Family’s Old Ancestor, Zhou Jinxing, Zhou Bailian, and two senior Zhou Family Foundation Establishment Cultivators as companions.
This was Shen Xuan’s wish, not wanting too many people accompanying him.
Actually, considering his current status, visiting the Zhou Family already bestowed enough face for the Zhou Family.
All cultivation influences spying on the Zhou Family have to seriously think about Shen Xuan’s relationship with the Zhou Family.
Behind the Zhou Family stands a remarkable Sect True Master.
The banquet atmosphere was very subdued.
Except for the Zhou Family’s Old Ancestor, no one spoke casually.
Even Zhou Bailian felt somewhat reserved.
Shen Xuan drank a few cups of Spirit Wine, then ended the banquet.
Expressing his intention to stroll casually in the Zhou Clan Territory.
The Zhou Family’s Old Ancestor wisely departed.
Only then did Shen Xuan focus his divine senses on Zhou Bailian.
Forty years have passed, Zhou Bailian broke through to the Late Stage of Foundation Establishment.
In front of him, she appeared just as she did when they first met.
The temperament and appearance inevitably changed a lot.
"Bailian, is the White Lotus Residence still there?"
"Yes. Would True Master Shen like to visit?"
"No need for that. Since there are no outsiders, Bailian, just call me Shen Xuan."
The two left the banquet, one following the other, heading to the White Lotus Residence.
The White Lotus Residence was Zhou Bailian’s former boudoir.
That night, Shen Xuan stayed at the White Lotus Residence.
The light of the pearl was hazy.
Shen Xuan lay on the soft bed, Zhou Bailian lay in his arms.
At this moment, the most powerful Foundation Establishment cultivator in the Cyan Yang Prefecture, the Patriarch of the Zhou Family in the Valley of Beasts, was like a little girl, with a faint blush on her cheeks, her jade-like face shy.
They did nothing.
Initially, Zhou Bailian tried probing a few times.
Seeing Shen Xuan truly had no such intention, she stopped her teasing gestures.
The two chatted casually, reminiscing about old times, discussing the situation.
"Wu Yulan, hasn’t she formed the Demon Pill yet?"
Back then, Shen Xuan killed two major demon cultivators in the Cyan Yang Prefecture, leaving out Wu Yulan.
Originally, it was expected that He Zhengming from the Cyan Cloud Sect and others would decisively take down the Wu Family in the Red Rock Forest and kill her.
Unexpectedly, she hadn’t died all this while.
She now became the leading demon cultivator in the Cyan Yang Prefecture.
"She is an Array Master, it’s not so easy to form the Demon Pill. However, as Bailian knows, she is ready and can form it at any time."
Zhou Bailian sighed.
The pressure on her increased immensely with the Core Formation Demon Sovereign.
Even with three Golden Corpse Beasts gifted by Shen Xuan, they couldn’t withstand the Core Formation Demon Sovereign.
"No worries. Even if Wu Yulan forms the Core Formation, she’ll only be a Fake Pill Demon Sovereign."
Shen Xuan took out a Divine Thunder Treasure Talisman.
This Divine Thunder Treasure Talisman was made with a low tier Thunder Talisman, only Tier Two Middle Grade.
For him now, it was nearly useless.
He planned to cultivate a high-tier Thunder Talisman and nurture it anew.
"This is my Divine Thunder Treasure Talisman nurtured for thirty years, enough to injure the Fake Pill Demon Sovereign."
"Ah, thank you, Shen Lang!"
Zhou Bailian was delighted.
"In the future, I might leave the Song Country."
Zhou Bailian darkened.
She wisely didn’t press for answers.
Shen Xuan said softly, "Don’t worry about Wu Yulan. Between you and her, it’s best to maintain a balance."
"She’s a smart person and will understand."
Only then did Zhou Bailian understand.
"Shen Lang, do you mean she’s intentionally not forming the Core Formation?"
"The Demon Sect of Liang Country waits. Wu Yulan waits, and you can only wait too."
Shen Xuan pointed out the key to the situation.
"Border prefectures like the Cyan Yang Prefecture are irrelevant to the overall situation. The real big picture is the war situation between the Yan and Song countries."
"Then, will Song Country lose?"
Shen Xuan fell silent.
After a long while, he said quietly, "I don’t know. That’s why I will leave the Song Country."
As the war unfolds, Golden Core True Masters must intervene.
Shen Xuan had just advanced.
Even with the Ice Technique Golden Core, he wasn’t guaranteed victory against long-established Golden Cores.
Especially those Golden Cores from major sects, with unique talents, each possessing divine powers, interacting dynamically.
Without a real battle, no one dares claim certain victory.
Moreover, even in victory, there’s the risk of injury.
A damaged Golden Core could disrupt his future path, making Nascent Soul formation more difficult.
"Don’t overthink. If the situation worsens and things become untenable, focus on self-preservation."
Shen Xuan advised comfortingly.
"I’ll make a trip to Wu Yulan."
Shen Xuan and Zhou Bailian weren’t particularly compatible.
However, they had been companions for so long.
Shen Xuan felt some affection towards her.
Before leaving, helping her once for old times’ sake.
Just for a clear conscience, solidifying his Dao heart.
This time, their meeting left their hearts clear like mirrors.
Unless unexpectedly, this was their last meeting.
In the future, only memories would remain.
Old friends from Song Country all in dreams, century-old affairs like the wind.
The next morning.
Shen Xuan left without saying goodbye.
Zhou Bailian gazed blankly in the direction where Shen Xuan vanished.
Emotions complex.
"From now on, we can only meet in dreams."
Zhou Bailian sighed.
"Having met Shen Lang in this life, Heaven has not treated Bailian poorly."
She understood Shen Xuan deeply, knowing his Dao heart was strong.
Focused solely on cultivation, seeking only immortality and enlightenment.
This farewell, no more meetings ahead.
Let alone the Zhou Family in the Valley of Beasts at Cyan Yang Prefecture.
Even the Cyan Cloud Sect among the seven major sects in Song Country couldn’t keep him.
...
Wu Family at Red Rock Forest.
Wu Yulan was startled by the series of sound-breaking arrays.
Several outer killing arrays were directly broken by someone.
A middle-aged scholar in green robes walked freely towards the Wu Clan Territory.
Along his path, all killing arrays and illusion arrays shattered.
"Core Formation True Master!"
Wu Yulan took a deep breath, unable to remain unmoved.
Looking again at the person’s appearance.
Wu Yulan nearly frightened herself out of her wits.
She bit her silver teeth, stepped forward in salute, and asked, "Is it True Master Shen Xuan himself?"
"Wu Yulan, you still recognize me, very good."
Shen Xuan chuckled lightly.
"I dare not, True Master Shen’s grace is always remembered by Yulan, never forgotten."
Wu Yulan replied respectfully.
The Song and Liang countries were not at war.
According to the regulations between the two countries, Core Formation True Masters are not to act lightly.
Shen Xuan did not intend to kill Wu Yulan.
Doing so would be of no benefit.
Without Wu Yulan, there would be other demon cultivators to occupy Cyan Yang Prefecture.
His visit was merely to warn Wu Yulan.
It was to lend support to Zhou Bailian.
"Seventy years ago, I came to Cyan Yang Prefecture and long admired the fame of the Cyan Yang twins."
"Meeting the Cyan Yang twins again today is indeed a joy in the human world!"
Having said that, Shen Xuan said no more and turned to leave.
Wu Yulan was a smart person.
Some things don’t need to be overly explained.
"Yulan respectfully sends off True Master Shen!"
Wu Yulan bowed and saluted from behind.
