Chen Xun and Big Black Ox burst into hearty laughter. They could not have wished for more. They said that as long as they came, Chen Xun would personally build them cave abodes. There had long been no interests mixed between them—true old comrades-in-arms.
Chen Xun had also mentioned Qian Shan's matter, but Qian Shan was stubborn by nature. He had never wanted Chen Xun to clear away the obstacles for him; his personal affairs were his own to handle.
Chen Xun did not say more. He understood Qian Shan's state of mind well. He likewise did not wish to borrow another's hand for the vengeance of his own realm.
The Five Elements Sect was now bustling with activity, no longer as silent as it had been after everyone left. The major main peaks were madly constructing grotto-heavens and secret realms; the resources sent by the Heavenly Rhythm Immortal Kingdom were simply too vast.
A group of Five Elements Sect Disciples beat gongs and drums as they saw them off for quite some distance. Some had even brought out suonas, making Chen Xun secretly observe for quite a while. This fellow... was something else.
At the center of the Five Elements Immortal Platform.
Chu Zhen carried an ancient zither upon her back, a faint sorrow on her face, yet her cold and beautiful expression remained unchanged.
Whoosh...
With a single thought, the spring breeze rose; with a single thought, all things came to life...
"Chu Zhen!" A sudden cry broke the tranquility.
It was a white-clothed man. His smile shone like sunlight, warm and friendly. A Big Black Ox followed behind him, mooing as it trotted affectionately toward Chu Zhen.
"Chen... Xun." Chu Zhen was slightly stunned, gazing intently as they came running over.
They had not changed at all.
