Sentimental and Unfeeling

Ten thousand years had passed, and Xiao Manor had indeed long since changed beyond recognition. Now it was Xiao City, the strongest cultivation clan in its region. Though its status was extraordinary, the Xiao descendants had never forgotten Xiao Lan; in the ancestral hall, a statue of Xiao Lan still stood, worshiped by later generations.

Xiao Lan looked at the excited Xiao descendants and thought of her own elder brothers and sisters. This newly ascended Wandering Immortal could not help her eyes reddening.

Her cultivation was very high, and she had lived far longer than the Xiao clansmen, but in truth, she had endured too few hardships. Added to that, she had spent the vast majority of her life in seclusion, so her temperament was still like a young girl's.

Gu An looked at Xiao Lan surrounded by her descendants, his face full of smiles.

In her previous life, Ye Lan had once yearned for a scene like this. Unfortunately, she had no family left alive, much less descendants.

Xiao Lan stayed in Xiao City for a full month. Everyone in the city knew that the Xiao Family's Old Ancestor had returned, and even cultivators from other cities and sects came to pay their respects.

During this month, although Gu An could see Xiao Lan every day, the time they spent together was not as close as before. It was not that Xiao Lan deliberately neglected him, but that the Xiao clansmen were far too enthusiastic.

When they finally left Xiao City, Xiao Lan stood atop the rosy clouds, raised both arms high, and laughed loudly. "From now on, I have a new goal! Not only will I become the master of the Dao Court, I'll also help the Xiao Family become an evergreen cultivation clan lasting through all ages!"
