Primordial Wilderness: I Am Hong Yun, and I Traded My Saint Position for a Wife at the Start - Part 40

In the Primordial Wilderness,

only Dao Ancestor Hong Jun had reached the Primordial Great Luo Golden Immortal realm and attained a Saint Position.

Others, such as the Three Pure Ones, were only at the Great Luo level.

For that reason, the Witch Clan had already become a force to be reckoned with!

Hou Tu and Xuanming left with Dijiang to take part in the operation of the Heavenly Dao's rules.

That left Zhen Yuan Zi and Hong Yun alone.

Zhen Yuan Zi stroked his long beard, deep in thought.

"Little Brother Hong Yun, should we head back to our home first, or...?"

The two of them had left Zhen Yuan Zi's home, Wuzhuang Temple, when Hongjun announced that he would lecture at Zixiao Palace.

They had not returned once since.

As for Hong Yun's Fire Cloud Cave—

They still had no idea where it was!

Ever since Hong Yun had taken form, he had stayed with Zhen Yuan Zi.

He couldn't be bothered to establish a home of his own!

"Fire Cloud Cave will be there whether I go or not!"

That was what Hong Yun had always thought.

Given the course of his fate, Hong Yun hadn't cared much about establishing a home at Fire Cloud Cave.

Someone who could die at any moment had no reason to think about settling down.

But now, he had become Dao Companions with Hou Tu, and had at least temporarily changed his fate. He had a family now.

As for the Third Sermon, would Hongjun pull some new trick?

Hong Yun was concerned, but not as worried as before.

"I'll meet whatever comes, and deal with it as it happens!"

"We'll see if Hongjun still plans to scheme against me like before!"

At the thought, a shadow crossed Hong Yun's brow.

"If I can change my fate and safely get through the distribution of the Primordial Violet Qi,"

"then I'll honor you as Dao Ancestor!"

"But if..."

A glint flashed in Hong Yun's eyes, and his handsome face took on a resolute look.

"If you treat me like a brother, I'll treat you as my closest confidant; if you treat me like a dog or horse, I'll treat you as an ordinary man."

"If you treat me like dirt, I'll treat you as my sworn enemy!"

Hong Yun quietly made up his mind.

If Hongjun had no intention of scheming against him, then Hong Yun owed him for his teachings.

He would naturally honor Hongjun as the Dao Ancestor!

But if Hongjun still planned to scheme against him, Hong Yun would have to cast aside all respect for him.

He would treat him as an enemy!

The thought flashed through Hong Yun's mind before he tucked it away.

He turned his attention back to the matter of establishing a home.

Now that he had Hou Tu, he needed to put establishing a home on the agenda.

There was no time to lose!

How could he marry without a house?

Was he supposed to keep living with the Witch Clan or at his big brother Zhen Yuan Zi's Wuzhuang Temple?

That wouldn't do!

A certain lingering obsession from his previous life suddenly surged up.

It struck Hong Yun right in the heart.

Seeing Hong Yun suddenly spring to his feet as if someone had hit a nerve, Zhen Yuan Zi was startled!

"What's wrong?"

His eyes were full of confusion.

"I only mentioned going back to your home."

"Why did Little Brother Hong Yun react so strongly, as if he'd been struck by lightning?"

Hong Yun stared at him, his expression grave.

"My home! Big Brother, I need to establish a home of my own right away!"

Zhen Yuan Zi asked, "Didn't you always say there was no rush? Didn't you say Wuzhuang Temple was your home?"

"Ah, times have changed!"

Hong Yun looked as if he couldn't explain it to him.

Zhen Yuan Zi understood and chuckled.

"Because of Daoist Friend Hou Tu?"

After teasing him, Zhen Yuan Zi considered the matter more seriously.

If that was the case, Hong Yun really should have a home of his own.

And ideally, it would be somewhere between Wuzhuang Temple and the Witch Clan!

That way, it wouldn't be too far from him.

And Hou Tu could still look after her clan!

A place like that...

"I'll help you look!"

As he spoke, Zhen Yuan Zi's thoughts stirred.

A yellow earthen glow flew from the top of his head.

A map slowly unfurled!

The Primordial Wilderness's many ley lines were clearly shown on it.

What Zhen Yuan Zi had brought forth was the Earth Book, his innate spiritual treasure and the Earth Fetal Membrane of the Primordial Wilderness.

It could not only defend against attacks, but also reveal the course of the Primordial Wilderness's ley lines!

He meant to use the Earth Book to search for a suitable place for Hong Yun to establish his home!

Hong Yun knew the Earth Book very well. He had used it before to comprehend the Law of Earth.

At the sight of it, he focused his gaze on the Earth Book.

Together with Zhen Yuan Zi, he began looking for a suitable place!

"This place looks good. The ley lines converge here..."

"I don't think so. It's too far from both Wuzhuang Temple and the Witch Clan."

"What about this one? It's right between the two!"

"The spiritual energy is too weak, and the ley lines seem to break off..."

Hong Yun and Zhen Yuan Zi immersed their souls in the Earth Book.

Following the flow of the ley lines, they searched slowly.

If the two of them went looking across the Primordial Wilderness in person, they had no idea how long it would take.

The Primordial Wilderness was simply too vast!

But with the Earth Book to observe its ley lines, they could first identify a few suitable locations.

Then they could visit them and choose the best one on site.

That was far better than searching aimlessly across the enormous Primordial Wilderness.

Meanwhile, Hong Yun and Zhen Yuan Zi were making plans for his home.
