Chapter 70: People are never truly alone

"Stop your nonsense!"

Boom!

Chen Xun threw a punch, but not directly at Ji Kun; instead, it struck the wall behind Ji Kun, creating a terrifying hole in the wall, and the snowy wind blew through.

Ji Kun's whole body was covered in cold sweat. He finally calmed down. The cold wind that had blown behind him sent chills throughout his body, and he had experienced a sudden, chilling feeling of death.

Chen Xun raised his fist slowly and halted the violent surge of power toward Ji Kun. The formidable force seemed ready to end Ji Kun's life with a single blow.

Ji Kun remained composed. He gazed at Chen Xun directly and calmly said, "Chen Xun, release your hand."

Chen Xun took a step back and let his hand drop. He still wore a cold expression.

"I will go to the Southern Dipper Mountain secret realm," Ji Kun said.

"I know," replied Chen Xun.

"In those days, many things happened in the Southern Dipper Mountain secret realm. I don't want to involve you."

"Have you resolved the matter?"

"Yes, but I cannot continue serving as an outer sect disciple."

Ji Kun's expression was calm, and he showed signs of aging. His gaze toward Chen Xun changed at last. He spoke with relief, saying, "I didn't expect you to remember me. Congratulations on reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, Master. Please sit."

Whoo! Whoo! Whoo!

The hole in the wall still allowed cold drafts inside. However, both of them sat opposite each other at a wooden table. The big black ox dared to stick its head inside but was startled by Chen Xun earlier.

Suddenly, the two began to converse, as if nothing had happened.This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com

It turned out that when Ji Kun left with his junior sister, he found the person who fled the battle and gave him the Lingcao. However, a conflict ensued between them. They even fought fiercely, and Ji Kun's junior sister sided with the other person. They killed him in the Southern Dipper Mountain.

People who could join their group were not naturally weak. They were also colleagues from the outer sect, and one of them was a distant relative of a senior elder. When Ji Kun returned, his junior sister had suddenly betrayed him, saying that Ji Kun had harmed their fellow disciples.

She twisted the facts, saying that the Lingcao they picked together had been seized by Ji Kun. To ensure her survival, she reluctantly made a deal with Ji Kun, using her body to gain his trust.

"You..."

"Senior Brother Ji doesn't think I'm such a good person, do you?"

Chen Xun stood up slowly, revealing a cold and sinister expression that Ji Kun had never seen before. "If Senior Brother Ji returns, I won't intervene in the matters between you and her."

Ji Kun took a deep breath. Today, he seemed to have reacquainted himself with Chen Xun. "I understand."

Sometimes, the bonds between men do not need many words.

Chen Xun nodded slightly and then turned to leave. However, when he reached the door, he stopped and said, "Senior Brother Ji, I'll wait for you at the foot of that mountain."

"I won't let you down," Ji Kun suddenly developed an intense determination, and his eyes turned sharp. He felt an indescribable power surge throughout his body.

"Hehe, this is the Senior Brother Ji I know."

A light muttering sound echoed as Chen Xun walked away, leading the big black ox. They vanished on the horizon. "Senior Brother Ji, I'll come back later to help you repair the wooden house. I'm going to chop wood with the old ox."

"Moo!"

Two voices were heard in the distance, and two figures strode powerfully amid the snowstorm.

Ji Kun clenched his fists tightly, his gaze fixed on the distance. The veins on his arms bulged as he realized that, after all the ups and downs in life, he had finally seen who his true friends were. He took a deep breath and looked in Chen Xun's direction.

As time passed by, May came again, and the Five Elements Sect echoed with bell chimes while five powerful and imposing Green Cliff Eagles appeared in the sky.

They circled freely in the sky, their eyes gleaming with a cold light as they stared intently at the ground, heading towards the main peak.

The once-every-twenty-year journey to the Southern Dipper Mountain had finally begun. Chen Xun stood at the foot of the mountain with the big black ox, looking up at the sky with a calm expression.

"Old ox, let's go."

"Moo~"

They were heading to a market near the sect, where they would meet someone important.

At various locations within the Five Elements Sect, Qi Condensation disciples stood and looked up at the sky, discussing the upcoming journey to the Southern Dipper Mountain. Unbeknown to them, an uncle and a black ox were passing by.
