Chapter 600: Unsettled Heart
Chapter 600: Unsettled Heart
Gu An looked at the true body of Wudao Xian before him, his expression calm.
【Wudao Xian (Initial Stage of Heaven-Balancing Golden Immortal): 3,027,800,921,027/5,000,000,000,000/5,000,000,000,000】
An old fellow who has lived for thirty trillion years.
Gu An thought without expression.
Previously, the reason he brought Wudao Xian's clone with him was not to catch up, but to investigate Wudao Xian's cause and effect.
Even when communicating with Tianling Shen, Gu An did not stop exploring Wudao Xian's cause and effect.
Finally, following the trajectory of cause and effect, he found Wudao Xian's true body.
The cultivation gap between the two was immense. Even though Gu An was standing behind Wudao Xian, he didn't want Wudao Xian to sense his presence, and Wudao Xian couldn't detect him.
This was an absolute suppression of a Heaven-Balancing Golden Immortal by an Open Heaven Great Luo Xian!
Gu An hesitated, wondering whether to kill Wudao Xian.
With just a thought, he could make Wudao Xian vanish into thin air.
But he felt that Wudao Xian's escape from the Celestial Court and his survival for so many years must have other reasons.
After so many years, Wudao Xian had reached the Heaven-Balancing Golden Immortal Realm, and he must have endured countless hardships. If he died here without knowing the reason, he would probably feel very depressed.
As Gu An thought, he raised his right hand.
"Forget it, I'll cooperate with him for a while. If I can find a place to belong, it's better than living in fear here."
Wudao Xian muttered to himself as he began to cast a spell, transferring more mana to his clone so that the clone could act.
A complex expression appeared on his face, and he sighed, "Why is that kid so powerful? It's as if the Great Dao is blind, how hateful..."
Gu An's hand paused, just ten centimeters away from Wudao Xian's shoulder.
After finishing the spell, Wudao Xian closed his eyes, preparing to continue his cultivation.
Slap! A hand suddenly landed on his shoulder, startling him so much that he opened his eyes wide. Then, a voice entered his ear, making his whole body turn cold, as if he had fallen into an icy cellar.
"Maybe you're not doing this for my sake, but if I don't hit you, my heart won't be at ease, Master."
...
Twilight was approaching.
Su Jin walked through the woods, her steps unsteady, her right hand covering her lower abdomen, and her face showing pain.
Ever since Tianling Shen slapped her, she had felt a burning pain in her lower abdomen, which made her heart ache even more.
From that slap, she felt Tianling Shen's disgust for her.
She had searched for him for ten thousand years, accompanied him in cultivation for ten thousand years, and devoted everything to him, but what she got in return was abandonment.
As for Tianling Shen's mention of past lives and present lives, she didn't care.
Awakening past life memories would make her become another person?
She didn't believe it! The more she thought about it, the more heartbroken she became, and tears flowed uncontrollably.
Her vision began to blur, and she felt exhausted, wanting to collapse and sleep well.
Suddenly, she saw two figures ahead, startling her to a halt.
This was a dense forest, and the twilight's glow filtered through the trees, making it seem gloomy and quiet.
Su Jin's vision became clear, and she frowned as she looked ahead, a sword appearing in her hand.
"Miss Su Jin, it's been a long time. Do you still remember me?"
Gu An stood up and greeted Su Jin, then tucked the Green Knight's Journey into his chest.
Su Jin looked at Gu An, her eyebrows furrowed even more.
She seemed to think of something, her eyes widening in shock. "You? How are you still alive!"
Gu An smiled and said, "If you have nowhere to go, why not come with me? After giving birth to the child, you can go wherever you want."
Su Jin immediately became alert, staring at Gu An with caution, and asked in a deep voice, "What do you want to do?"
Gu An's gaze shifted, causing Su Jin to feel a sense of wonder.
Shen Zhen turned to look at Gu An, her curiosity piqued.
What unique ability was this? Gu An stretched lazily and said, "It's time to return."
Shen Zhen nodded, also wanting to sit down and comprehend the heavenly Dao and the Immortal Deity.
...
The seasons changed, and a year passed in the blink of an eye.
Inside the courtyard, Gu An opened his eyes, and his mind stirred. A moment later, Anxin appeared out of thin air beside him.
"Master, what is it?" Anxin asked curiously.
Gu An stood up and said, "Go and bring that child in. Follow my previous instructions."
Anxin's interest was piqued, and she immediately disappeared from her original spot.
Shen Zhen, who was meditating in front of the refining cauldron, looked at Gu An and asked curiously, "Are you really going to adopt that child?"
Gu An replied, "This child is not ordinary. Having him follow Su Jin will only bring her misfortune, and it's time for her to start a new life."
"A Primordial Immortal Deity, tsk tsk, I feel he will stir up a wave of competition within the Dao Ground." Shen Zhen teased.
The talent of a Primordial Immortal Deity would surely surpass her imagination, and with Gu An's guidance, his cultivation speed would be astonishing.
Gu An did not argue; he was indeed prepared to nurture the child of the Celestial Spirit Deity.
"Do you have some plan with him that even I don't know about?"
Gu An gazed at the refining cauldron, deep in thought.
Half an hour later, Anxin returned, holding an infant in her arms.
Everyone in the Dao Ground had gathered in Gu An's courtyard. They had learned that Gu An was going to take in a disciple, and they were all curious about what kind of child could attract Gu An's attention. When they saw Anxin return, they immediately surrounded her.
"This child is so small."
"Hey, how has he already established his foundation?"
"Nonsense, this child is definitely a genius. He can absorb and cultivate with each breath; otherwise, how could he have caught Master's eye?"
"He's so cute; let me hold him."
"Cute now, but in twenty years, he'll surely be a proud fellow. You won't find him cute then."
Anxin did not hand the baby to anyone else. After a brief chat with the crowd, she approached Gu An and handed him the infant in the swaddling clothes.
Gu An held the baby and saw that he was fast asleep, a smile appearing on his face.
"Such a good child."
Gu An began to gently caress the baby's face, murmuring softly.
Anxin urged, "Master, why don't you give him a name? Miss Su Jin said you would choose it."
She had taken a liking to the baby as soon as she saw him, and now she was also looking forward to the changes he would bring to the Dao Ground in the future.
Gu An contemplated and said, "This child has no father, so he is born of heaven. Let's name him Tian Hao, with Tian as his surname and Hao as his given name."
Tian Hao!
The crowd pondered over the name, knowing that Gu An would not choose a name carelessly.
Anxin was stunned and muttered to herself, "Hao..."
A hope arose in her heart, and she looked expectantly at Gu An, but he did not respond to her gaze.
Gu An held little Tian Hao over his head, and as the baby looked up, Gu An smiled and said, "From now on, you are my disciple."
At the same time, in the depths of the universe beyond the heavens, beneath the boundary gate, the Celestial Spirit Deity suddenly opened his eyes. He turned over his right palm, and two words appeared in his palm.
"Tian Hao... So that's it. No wonder I couldn't find it. This destiny is truly remarkable. Celestial Spirit Immortal, I concede to you."
