Chapter 391: Spin-off: Together Forever Chapter
By the Ruoshui Riverbank, for thousands upon thousands of years, it had been forever bound in ice, not a blade of grass in sight.
However, five hundred years ago, a pair of siblings arrived here.
They had spent five hundred years building a palace and planting flowers on this barren, ice-locked stretch of the Ruoshui Riverbank.
Now, the Xuancao Flowers stretched for nine thousand miles along the Ruoshui Riverbank.
A palace built of ice bricks, crystal clear and sparkling, stood amidst the sea of flowers—spanning a hundred acres, soaring into the clouds, majestic and spectacular.
Could it be anything but spectacular?
This palace was towering so high it almost punctured the Heavenly Palace. If it continued to rise, it would have drilled through the floor of the Divine Monarch’s palace in the Nine Heavens!
These Xuancao Flowers were almost encroaching on the gates of Heaven!
Dominating territory wasn’t supposed to be done like this; aren’t there other flowers in the Fairy Realm?
Why plant these unremarkable Xuancao Flowers?
Are peonies not fragrant enough to be a national beauty, or are peonies not graceful enough?
Would it hurt to plant something else?
But no one managed them; as long as they didn’t encroach on someone else’s doorstep, it was fine.
And how dare they build their palace so high?
Once Divine Lord Xuanyuan returned from his trials, someone would surely deal with them.
The gods were also astonished how long the Divine Monarch’s mortal trials had taken.
Others would return to their places in at most a hundred years.
The Divine Monarch of the Nine Heavens had almost been away for a thousand years and yet hadn’t returned; what sort of trials was he facing?
Unfortunately, they could not discern the whereabouts of the Divine Monarch of the Nine Heavens, though they really wished they could!
*
Today, Ruo Xi and Xuanyuan Lie were diligently planting flowers again.
Ruo Xi rubbed her sore back, "Brother, will Father and Mother really be able to ascend successfully once we’ve planted ten thousand miles of Xuancao Flowers?"
Xuanyuan Lie performed a Fairy Technique and looked down at the mortal world.
Father was on the road again, looking for his wife!
Mother was now only three years old, an orphan.
Someone sponsored an outing for the children from the orphanage to an amusement park, and because Mother was too pretty and too adorable, she was lured away by a human trafficker with a piece of White Rabbit candy.
Poor Father, only seven years old, had to trek a thousand miles again to bring Mother back home.
Such an event happened once in every lifetime, and counting this time, it was already the eleventh!
Indeed, Xuanyuan Que had accompanied Ruo Xuan through twelve reincarnations in the human world.
Ruo Xuan’s Cultivation Base progressed slowly; after all, her natural talent was just as it was, not comparable to the natural elegance of the War God from the Nine Heavens.
So, apart from that one lifetime in Xuanyuan Country, Xuanyuan Que also accompanied her through the Xia, Shang, Zhou, Eastern Han, Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming, Qing, Republic of China, and the modern era, spending varying lengths of time in each—decades long in some, all depending on Ruo Xuan’s preference.
All together, that was almost eight hundred years!
Their children had successfully ascended five hundred years earlier.
Ruo Xi: "Mother is so silly!"
Xuanyuan Lie: "..."
Only his sister could say such things; he certainly dared not.
Ruo Xi: "Father is so pitiful!"
Xuanyuan Lie: "..."
Why did he feel like Father was enjoying himself? freёnovelkiss.com
"Mother is always goofing off. When will they ever come home? The house is ready, and Father even said he would build it with us as a thousandth birthday gift for Mother. Father doesn’t urge Mother to practice her cultivation more diligently. If he had used the persistence he had with us, Mother would have been able to ascend long ago."
Xuanyuan Lie looked at his sister, "Don’t you think that Father and Mother actually enjoy their free-spirited life?"
Without the two of them in the human world, how blissful it was!
Ruo Xi: "..."
That’s too much!
She was done!
Xuanyuan Lie: "You still have to do it. Mother’s thousandth birthday is approaching, and Father will certainly bring her back to celebrate it with us."
So, resigned, the siblings continued to plant flowers—they had to cover ten thousand miles!
And they had to finish building the palace; they were missing a bridge to heaven, once complete, it would lead directly to Father’s Divine Temple.
Ever since their father coaxed them into ascending, they had been so busy every day!

Xuanyuan Que teleported to the high-speed train’s restroom, then walked out after opening the door.
People waiting to use the restroom saw him and their eyes lit up—whose little boy is this? So handsome!
Xuanyuan Que ignored the gazes of others, blocked out his five senses, and strode towards the train carriages.
Xuanyuan Que accurately located the train conductor and said to him, "There’s a kidnapper on the train who has taken a sister."
The conductor was startled and instinctively glanced around, holding back his reaction, "Who? Which carriage and seat number?"
Xuanyuan Que told him.
The conductor wasn’t sure whether he could trust the words of a seven- or eight-year-old child, so he began to observe discretely!
The more he watched, the more they looked like traffickers!
What kind of mother, at mealtime, would only care about her own eating and drinking, letting her child sleep in his seat, his neck twisted without any care?
Moreover, that child was not normal; he remembered that the kid had been asleep since boarding the train, having dozed off for several hours with no sign of waking up.
The next stop was Gui City, and the two kidnappers got off the train.
The woman, holding the child, was rough in her movements. When she left the seat, the child’s head hit the seat, but she merely glanced and ignored it, showing no concern at all.
The conductor was even more certain the pair were kidnappers, contacted the station police, and in a coordinated effort, they quickly caught the two human traffickers.
Ruo Xuan also woke up at this time, giving a clear account of the situation, confirming that the two were indeed traffickers.
However, the two had no choice but to admit their guilt, as during the interrogation, they spilled everything like beans, revealing all the bad things they had done over the years, even giving away their accomplices!
They certainly hadn’t intended to confess these things, but for some reason, their mouths moved uncontrollably, betraying everything!
With their cooperation, the investigation team followed the leads and successfully cracked a major human trafficking case, capturing many people, rescuing many children, and helping numerous parents find their lost children.
The case came to an end, but what nobody knew was that the little boy who had initially reported the crime and the little girl who had been kidnapped had disappeared without a trace. The last image of them on the security cameras showed them heading to the public restroom, and then they vanished.
The cameras on the road malfunctioned for a few minutes, and subsequent searches found no trace of the two children on any road surveillance!
After leaving the high-speed train station, Xuanyuan Que and Ruo Xuan arrived at a cave deep in the secluded mountains.
Ruo Xuan glanced at the cave Xuanyuan Que had tidied up with a Fairy Technique, finding it clean and comfortable, and asked, "Xuanyuan brother, are we going to cultivate here in the mountains from now on?"
Xuanyuan Que replied, "Mm, do you want to cultivate here? If not, you can go back, but it means you’ll have to start kindergarten."
Ruo Xuan immediately said, "I want to! I really, really want to!"
Oh my, born in modern times, starting kindergarten at three, then nine years of compulsory education, followed by high school, then university, and after getting a bachelor’s degree, there’s still the postgraduate entrance exam...
It feels like learning is never-ending!
She didn’t want that, she had already been to school for more than a dozen lifetimes!
She didn’t want to go to school anymore!
"Then stay here."
"Okay."
And so, the two little brats settled in the uninhabited mountains to live.
In this life, both were orphans, free to cultivate until they ascended.
By their current cultivation base, they didn’t even need to eat.
But Ruo Xuan was greedy; she insisted on three meals a day, each one cooked by Xuanyuan Que.
Life cultivating in the cave was boring. If he didn’t cook three meals a day and they cultivated incessantly, he feared she couldn’t handle it.
Even if Xuanyuan Que came up with different ways to catch rabbits and hunt goats every day, sometimes Ruo Xuan still got bored and wanted to go to the amusement park in the city.
Day by day, year by year passed, Ruo Xuan slowly grew up. When the city’s amusement parks no longer satisfied her, she went to other cities, after exhausting those, she started visiting foreign ones.
She had traveled the entire world! Finally satisfied, she settled down to cultivate!
Xuanyuan Que had originally estimated that Ruo Xuan could ascend by eighteen, but her playfulness delayed it until sixty-eight!
Fortunately, one day in the heavens equaled ten years in the human world; otherwise, the two kids might have given it all up!
The day before her sixty-eighth birthday, the two were finally ready to ascend.
Ruo Xi and Xuanyuan Lie had even repaired the last ladder leading to the War God Temple.
Then, all the Upper Gods in the Fairy Realm received an invitation to a birthday celebration from the Ruoshui Riverbank.
All Upper Gods were baffled upon receiving the invitation.
Which clueless fairy child was holding a thousand-year celebration audacious enough to send them invitations, to these Upper Gods who were tens of thousands of years old?
No way!
Definitely not going!
The Upper Gods casually discarded the invitation!
