Chapter 440 Time is a Blade

Flying Cloud Immortal Market.

When He Song controlled the White Jade Boat, coming from afar, and arrived at Flying Cloud Immortal Market, the originally bustling Flying Cloud Immortal Market suddenly became lively.

Flying Cloud Immortal Market, although relying on a Flying Cloud Lightness Skill to have a small reputation in the surrounding area, had more cultivators than ordinary Immortal Markets.

But this place was only a small Immortal Market after all.

For a small Immortal Market, the sudden arrival of a Foundation Establishment True Person controlling a flying boat would naturally cause shock among the vast majority of cultivators within the Immortal Market.

After all, although there were many Qi Condensation Stage cultivators in the Immortal Market, Foundation Establishment True Persons were not commonly seen.

The Foundation Establishment True Person guarding Flying Cloud Immortal Market was no different from the Guardian True Persons guarding other Immortal Markets.

They basically did not show up in the Immortal Market, but just cultivated peacefully within their own residences.

Foundation Establishment True Persons from the outside world basically would not enter a small Immortal Market.

In this way, even if they did not see a Foundation Establishment True Person for many years, the cultivators in the Immortal Market would not be surprised.

Naturally, now seeing He Song controlling a flying boat to arrive here, the cultivators within Flying Cloud Immortal Market would also burst into bursts of noisy sounds.

Ignoring the fiery gazes of countless cultivators in Flying Cloud Immortal Market below looking at him.

He Song's gaze swept over Flying Cloud Immortal Market below, and then he controlled the White Jade Boat to land outside Flying Cloud Immortal Market.

When everyone from the Lin family had walked down from the White Jade Boat, and He Song had also stored the White Jade Boat.

A voice also sounded in He Song's ears at the right time.

"This one is Dark Shadow, the Guardian here, greetings to this fellow cultivator."

"I wonder if fellow cultivator has come from afar, is it to spend your twilight years in this Flying Cloud Immortal Market? Or..."

His gaze swept over He Song and the more than a hundred Lin family members behind He Song.

Although True Person Dark Shadow's words seemed to be somewhat questioning, he had already determined his thoughts in his heart.

If he did not want to spend his twilight years in this Flying Cloud Immortal Market, why would he bring his family members here?

If he did not want to spend his twilight years in this Flying Cloud Immortal Market, why would he drive a flying boat here with such fanfare?

If he did not want to spend his twilight years in this Flying Cloud Immortal Market, how could he put these mortals down here?

If...

In short, as soon as True Person Dark Shadow saw He Song's actions, a thought flashed through his mind.

This Foundation Establishment True Person in front of him should be an elderly cultivator with not much lifespan left, wanting to establish a Foundation Establishment family here.

As for He Song's youthful appearance, it was directly ignored by him.

For cultivators, appearances remaining unchanged for years was a very normal thing.

Not to mention the appearance of a young man, even the appearance of a teenager was possible.

Therefore, superficial appearance actually did not have much reference value for the age of cultivators.

And it was precisely because of this that True Person Dark Shadow was certain of He Song's purpose in coming here.

Moreover, as the Guardian True Person here, when an elderly Foundation Establishment True Person came to establish a family in the Immortal Market he guarded, True Person Dark Shadow naturally needed to communicate with him.

This was the reason why True Person Dark Shadow quickly came here and spoke with He Song after He Song set foot in Flying Cloud Immortal Market.

Facing a Foundation Establishment True Person like He Song, with not much lifespan left and cultivation at least in the late Foundation Establishment stage, or even Perfected Foundation Establishment, perhaps only he in Flying Cloud Immortal Market was qualified to step forward and speak to him.

"This one is Flying Feather, greetings True Person Dark Shadow."

"True Person Dark Shadow has overthought it. This one's arrival here is not to spend my twilight years here, but only at the invitation of a young friend to send these descendants of old friends here to be settled."

"Once this matter is done, this one will leave immediately and will not stay here for long. I hope True Person Dark Shadow will grant me convenience."

He Song cupped his hands towards True Person Dark Shadow in front of him. He did not underestimate him because of his cultivation level, but instead directly explained his purpose in coming.

Being able to guard an Immortal Market meant that True Person Dark Shadow must have backing behind him.

Regardless of whether this backing was big or small.

Be it a Nascent Soul Upper Sect.

Or a Golden Core Sect.

He Song did not want to provoke them too much.

Since He Song's arrival here was not what True Person Dark Shadow had guessed, it was fine to explain it to him.

As long as He Song did not intend to stay in this Flying Cloud Immortal Market for long, True Person Dark Shadow would not have too many thoughts about He Song's arrival.

Naturally, his intersection with He Song would not be too much either.

Under such circumstances.

After knowing He Song's true purpose, presumably True Person Dark Shadow in front of him would soon leave on some pretext.

He Song thought so in his heart.

And in fact.

It was exactly as he expected.

After listening to He Song's words and learning that He Song's arrival here was not to settle down here, a trace of embarrassment flashed across True Person Dark Shadow's face.

Then, he quickly cupped his hands towards He Song and apologized.

"So that's how it is. It seems that this one has misunderstood True Person Flying Feather. I hope True Person will not take offense."

"This one still needs to guard the Immortal Market, so I will not disturb you further."

"Farewell."

True Person Dark Shadow left.

He left in a hurry.

He Song did not pay too much attention to this, but just turned his gaze to the entrance of Flying Cloud Immortal Market.

There.

Two young women stood side by side, bowing respectfully to He Song from afar.

It was not until He Song turned his gaze to them and waved his hand, signaling them to come over, that the two of them cautiously stepped forward.

"Qian'er greets Senior."

"An Ning greets Senior."

Following the two greetings, He Song nodded slightly, and his gaze lingered on the two of them for a moment.

Su Qian, An Ning.

The two of them were He Song's purpose for coming here.

At the same time, the hundred-plus Lin family members behind He Song would later be handed over to An Ning.

However, before handing over these hundred-plus Lin family members to An Ning, He Song still needed to give some instructions, to prevent the Lin family members from encountering any misfortune.

"This is not a place to talk, follow me."

After signaling the Lin family members behind him to wait in place, He Song turned his gaze to Su Qian and An Ning in front of him, and then spoke.

Having said that, He Song's figure quickly moved towards the distance.

After reaching a secluded place where no one was around, He Song stopped.

When Su Qian and An Ning had also reached in front of him, He Song spoke again.

"These hundred-plus Lin family members are all descendants of an old friend of mine. That old friend was kind to me, and the safety of his descendants is naturally taken care of by me."

"This Seat started from the Earth Sect when I was weak, but now the place where Earth Sect is located is intertwined with the righteous and demon war, and I fear it will become a scene of devastation."

"Having no other choice, I brought them here."

"You must remember that the Lin family members do not seek great wealth and status, do not seek official success, only seek a peaceful life, away from the power struggles of the mortal court, away from wars and disasters."

"Only in this way can This Seat rest assured to entrust this matter to you."

"Have you remembered?"

As He Song's voice continued to be heard, the two people standing in front of He Song nodded repeatedly.

Su Qian, hearing what He Song said, had an inexplicable expression flash across her face, seeming to have some feelings about what He Song said.

An Ning, hearing what He Song said, had a look of astonishment flash across her face, quite puzzled by what He Song said.

However, neither of them asked anything in detail, but just thought in their hearts that they must settle the Lin family members completely according to what He Song said.

In this way, after listening to He Song's words, the two of them also quickly nodded respectfully in agreement.

Seeing this situation.

He Song did not say anything more, but just turned his gaze to Su Qian.

And Su Qian, at this moment, just happened to muster her courage and looked up at He Song.

Their eyes met.

Su Qian's heart trembled, and she finally spoke.

"Senior, although An Ning is young, she is reliable in handling matters, and Qian'er will also try her best to assist her in handling this matter well. Senior can rest assured about this matter."

"However, Qian'er now also has a request to make, and hopes that Senior will grant it."

"Qian'er failed Foundation Establishment previously, and her foundation was greatly damaged. Although she is still not worried about lifespan now, if she waits until her lifespan is about to run out, she will be powerless to reverse it."

"Senior, as a Foundation Establishment True Person, has a long lifespan, which is vastly different from us Qi Condensation Stage cultivators."

"Qian'er is afraid that when her lifespan is running out in the future, she will not be able to share Senior's worries."

"Therefore, Qian'er earnestly requests Senior, after Qian'er's death, to let An Ning replace Qian'er and share Senior's worries."

"Hoping Senior will grant my request."

After Su Qian finished speaking, she lowered her head and quietly waited for He Song's response.

However, in her heart, she quickly sighed softly, a trace of unease lingering in her heart.

Regarding An Ning.

She really liked her very much. Many years ago, before she had taken An Ning as her disciple, she had had this idea in her heart.

Unfortunately, at that time, An Ning was not yet her disciple, and she had not had the opportunity to meet He Song, and even less this good opportunity to talk to He Song about this matter, which is why it was delayed.

It was not until the last time she exchanged messages with He Song that He Song casually told her the news that he would soon return here.

She had calculated for a long time in her heart, and that was how she came up with the previous message to He Song, and the current plan.

It could be said that all of this was in Su Qian's plan.

To let He Song and An Ning meet, and let An Ning take on this matter, and have an intersection with He Song.

After that, she would speak up and beg He Song to agree to this matter.

If this matter succeeded, An Ning's future path of cultivation, even if not smooth sailing, would still be considered to have backing.

With a Foundation Establishment True Person as her backing, even if she died of old age in the future, An Ning would live like a fish in water in this small Flying Cloud Immortal Market.

If this matter did not succeed.

She would not lose anything. It was just helping An Ning arrange for those hundred-plus Lin family members, which was also a minor matter to her.

However, although she exchanged messages with He Song every month, and the two of them were considered familiar with each other.

But she did not know if He Song would agree to this matter.

After all.

She could not completely fathom the thoughts of a Foundation Establishment True Person.

It was just that in her heart, Su Qian still hoped that He Song could agree.

In this way, even if she died of old age in the future, An Ning would have something to rely on.

Just as Su Qian was uneasy in her heart, waiting for He Song's response.

After listening to Su Qian's words, He Song looked at the two young women in front of him, and his eyes also dimmed slightly.

Su Qian.

Was a young woman he had met in Flying Cloud Immortal Market after his cultivation reached the mid-Foundation Establishment stage.

The Su Qian at that time was a small attendant in the Spirit Skill Pavilion of Flying Cloud Immortal Market.

By chance, she met him and began to transmit messages for him every month.

Now, in the blink of an eye, decades had quietly passed.

His cultivation had successfully stepped into the Golden Core realm.

And the originally charming and lovely young woman was now calmly discussing her future death with him.

Even knowing that she would die, she did not forget to bring her junior to meet him, wanting to secure backing for her junior.

Such a situation could not help but make He Song feel somewhat emotional.

Time is a blade, most hurtful to people.

Although Su Qian's face had not changed, and was still the appearance of the young woman back then.

But her lifespan running out was also a fact.

If He Song wanted to continue to know the news of this place, replacing someone to continue to transmit messages for him was indeed possible.

After some thought, He Song nodded and agreed.

"That will also work."

"In the future, the matter of transmitting messages will be as you said."

"As for the matter of reward, here are two thousand Inferior spirit stones, which will be your reward for arranging for the Lin family members."

"Future message transmissions will be as before. When This Seat is free to pass by this place later, I will give the spirit stones to you."

"How does that sound?"

After agreeing, He Song casually took out two thousand Inferior spirit stones and handed them to Su Qian in front of him.

And also explained the payment method for future rewards to An Ning.

After the two nodded in agreement.

He Song then led the two of them out of the hidden place and came to the front of the hundred-plus Lin family members.

After introducing Su Qian and An Ning to the Lin family members, and telling them that Su Qian and An Ning would arrange everything, He Song transformed into an escape light and soared into the sky, heading into the distance.

However, He Song did not leave too far.

On the contrary, after leaving the sight of everyone, he quickly landed on the ground and extended his Divine Sense, observing everything that happened outside Flying Cloud Immortal Market after he left.

Flying Cloud Immortal Market.

After the escape light that He Song had transformed into had gone far away.

Su Qian and An Ning also quickly led the hundred-plus Lin family members that He Song had just sent to them and began heading into the distance.

A Great Perfection of Qi Condensation Stage cultivator, plus a fourth layer of Qi Condensation Stage cultivator, to escort these hundred-plus Lin family members was very simple.

A group of over a hundred people, under the leadership of Su Qian and An Ning, quickly moved away from Flying Cloud Immortal Market and entered the mortal world.

After passing through villages, towns, and even cities.

In the end, Su Qian and An Ning remembered He Song's teachings.

They specifically arranged for these hundred-plus Lin family members to settle in a remote town.

During this period, people from the An family did indeed send carriages and other tools to help the Lin family members travel together, which saved a lot of time.

Even people from the An family entered the town and sent a lot of wealth to the Lin family, making the Lin family members a bit wealthier.

Seeing this, He Song took it all in. He believed Su Qian's words a bit more.

It seemed that the An family that An Ning belonged to was indeed a prominent family in the mortal world.

Moreover, An Ning's words in this family did indeed carry great weight.

In this way.

After the Lin family re-established themselves in the mortal world near Flying Cloud Immortal Market, and did not attract the attention of any cultivators, He Song was also relieved and left this place.
