Gu An watched as Ye Lan drifted into the Reincarnation Vortex, his Divine Sense did not retract, but tracked all the way into the vortex until Ye Lan was absorbed by the Reincarnation Rules into the Great Dao, only then did he withdraw his Divine Sense.
He stood in place, continuing to gaze at Ye Lan's stele.
For a long time.
An Xin came to his side and asked, "Master, are you alright?"
Gu An turned around, stretched lazily, and smiled, "I was just reminiscing. Let's go, it's time to return to the valley."
An Xin nodded, accompanying him towards the valley.
"Master, I've already arranged for female disciples to guard Uncle-Master's stele every day."
"Um, you are thoughtful. Don't treat her unfairly."
"I surely won't treat her unfairly. By the way, Master, there's a rumor going around that Shengtian is about to return, and the Immortal Dynasty will be defeated. Is it true?"
An Xin changed the subject, fearing Gu An would be saddened.
