Tan Shuchang chose to let nature take its course, but surely this wasn't for the sake of having another clear and honest reason to laugh at Dongdong down the road. He faintly felt that the Cultivation Land, being so mysterious, was unlikely to produce such accidental circumstances.
Unless it involved his unfinished journey toward becoming a True Immortal!
Perhaps, letting this little girl follow him and leave that certain period of the past might affect this current timeline, was actually a choice made by the Dao of True Immortal, along with his True Immortal World.
"Could it be... that my ultimate attainment of the Dao depends on this little girl?"
Tan Shuchang pondered deeply, arriving at such a thought.
Yet, such occurrences where one's own path of attainment finally leads to being realized through someone else were not rare.
