Chapter 1953 Farewell
The afterglow of the setting sun reflected the earth. Ye Chunyang put his hands behind his head, lying on the golden beach, looking calmly into the distance.
Ding Ning sat next to him, also looking at the sunset on the sea level, with a smile in his eyes.
The two of them just looked at the sunset and sunset quietly, and there was a touch of warmth in the picture.
"You know? Sometimes the sunset is like life." After a long time, Ye Chunyang suddenly said this.
"Why did senior say that?" Ding Ning asked with some confusion.
"Because human life is just like the sunset, there is always a time of sunset." Ye Chunyang smiled slightly and said: "Nothing in this world is eternal. These things are illusory to anyone, but everyone is I want to pursue it, but I forget what I want in the end.”
"Why did senior suddenly feel this way?" Ding Ning's eyes were full of curiosity.
The young man in front of him is sometimes aggressive and decisive, but sometimes he is calm and deep, as if there is an elusive mystery deep in his heart.
Ye Chunyang smiled and did not answer.
Ding Ning saw this and didn't ask any more questions. She looked at the sunset in the distance, closed her eyes and took a breath. She said with a smile: "I don't understand the truth what the seniors said. I just feel that if there weren't so many fights in the world, , my dad and I can live a good life, and the whole Dingjiabao can also live a good life."
After a pause, she continued: "But there are not so many what-ifs in the world. Our Ding family is in a chaotic sea of immortals, with countless forces around us. If we are not careful, we may be swallowed up by others. So since I was a child, I have wanted to make myself Become stronger, strong enough to protect my father and the entire family.”
"You have done a good job." Ye Chunyang nodded, and he admired Ding Ning's character very much.
"Ding Ning dared to ask senior, what is your purpose of cultivating immortality?" Ding Ning looked at Ye Chunyang and asked seriously.
"I don't want to die." Ye Chunyang smiled and replied.
Ding Ning was stunned.
This answer was very straightforward, and she couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Yeah, who wants to die? The world of immortality is very cruel, and only the strong can survive."
Ye Chunyang was silent.
Along the way, he has experienced too many lives and deaths. If he is not strong enough, he will eventually become a withered skeleton on the road to immortality.
Therefore, he has never stopped. Only by truly possessing the strength to surpass everyone can he truly be at ease in the world.
He knew that step was still too far away from where he was now, but Ye Chunyang would not give up and firmly believed that he could succeed.
Ding Ning looked at him quietly and wanted to speak, but heard a steady breathing sound. Ye Chunyang closed his eyes and fell asleep at some point.
Seeing this, Ding Ning smiled slightly and sat quietly with his hands on his knees without disturbing him.
The sunset gradually fell below the horizon, stars appeared in the sky, and the cool sea breeze blew. The two of them stayed peacefully on the beach, and time seemed to stand still.
…
It wasn't until the next morning that Ye Chunyang opened his eyes and woke up.
Feeling the ebb and flow of the sea and the hazy mist, a smile appeared on his face and his mood became cheerful.
"Senior, are you awake?" Ding Ning was still beside him, looking at him with a sweet smile.
"Well, I haven't slept as peacefully as I do now for a long time." Ye Chunyang stretched and said with a relaxed expression.
He has been constantly fighting and practicing, and he has rarely been as comfortable as he was at this moment. When he woke up, he felt that his state of mind was different.
"Senior, if you like it, I will stay here with you all the time." Ding Ning said with a smile.
"No." Ye Chunyang shook his head, "Although it is good to be calm, some things always have to be done."
Ding Ning was startled when she heard this. She had a premonition of something and asked nervously: "Senior... are you leaving?"
Ye Chunyang nodded, looked at her for a while, and then took out a jade slip.
"Senior, what is this?" Ding Ning asked with some confusion.
"This is the Five Emperors Ultimate Sword Technique practiced by the old man of Jianxu. This sword technique requires zero basic training. You have never practiced any flying sword before, so this sword formation is just right for you."
Ding Ning's expression condensed, and he quickly shook his head and said: "How can I accept such a valuable thing?"
Ye Chun threw the jade slip over and said with a smile: "You and I are considered acquaintances. I don't know if we will have the chance to meet again in the future. Let's treat this set of sword skills as a farewell gift!"
Looking at the jade slip in his hand, Ding Ning looked a little complicated.
The power of the Five Emperors' Ultimate Sword Technique is self-evident. She was naturally very happy to be able to practice such a high-level sword formation, but taking the jade slip away from her hand at this time, it was very heavy.
"Okay, it's time to leave now." Ye Chunyang glanced at Ding Ning with a smile and said, "Miss Ding, take care. If we are destined to meet again one day, maybe you and I will meet again."
"Where are you going, senior?" Ding Ning blurted out.
"I plan to leave the Chaotic Immortal Sea and go to the Human Emperor Realm." Ye Chunyang said.
"When I succeed in my cultivation, I will go there too!" Ding Ning said loudly.
Ye Chunyang didn't expect Ding Ning to say such words. He was stunned, then nodded and said: "Practice hard. With your qualifications, you will definitely achieve something in the future."
When he finished speaking, he smiled slightly and said nothing more. After a flash of inspiration, he turned into a startling rainbow and swept towards the sea in the distance.
After a while, his figure gradually disappeared into the vast sea.
Ding Ning stood there, staring into the distance for a long time.
"Is he gone after all?"
A figure came from behind. Ding Ning looked back at her father, her eyes were red and tears were flowing.
"Silly girl, cry if you want to. Dad is here, no one will laugh at you." Ding Tianyi patted her shoulder and comforted her.
"Dad..."
Ding Ning threw herself into her father's arms, tears could no longer be restrained. She said nothing, just cried like that, crying a little heartbreakingly.
Ding Tianyi hugged her, his eyes showing heartache, but he also didn't say anything, just let his daughter lean on his shoulder and let her vent her inner emotions.
After a long time, Ding Ning's crying gradually subsided. She left Ding Tianyi's arms and looked up at the distant sky. The previous grievances and bitterness had disappeared, as if the emotions that had been suppressed in her heart for a long time had just been released.
"Are you feeling better now?" Ding Tianyi asked with a smile.
"Yeah." Ding Ning looked back at her father, "Dad, thank you."
"Silly daughter, Dad will always be your support. If you feel wronged, you can come to Dad at any time." Ding Tianyi caressed Ding Ning's head lovingly and smiled softly.
After a pause, he continued: "But there are some things that Dad hopes you understand. That person is indeed very good, but perhaps you and he do not belong to the same world. You can like him, but you don't have to be harsh on yourself because of this, otherwise you will only hurt yourself in the end."
"Dad, your daughter understands." Ding Ning nodded, "There is a big gap between him and me, and I can see that he has someone in his heart and can't accommodate others. To me, he is just a passer-by in my life. He will not stay because of me, and I can't follow his footsteps."
"You can understand, Dad will be relieved." Ding Tianyi sighed.
This girl, sometimes she is too sensible, so sensible that it makes people feel distressed.
Ding Ning smiled and said with a firm look in his eyes: "Dad, I have figured it out. You don't have to worry about me. From now on, I will work harder to practice and protect our Ding family."
"Okay." Ding Tianyi nodded with a smile.
The father and daughter stayed for a while, and then returned to Dingjiabao.
...
Ye Chunyang, who left Dingjiabao, flew hundreds of miles away from the sea in one breath.
Now his cultivation has reached the initial stage of returning to the void, and his magic power is ten times better than that of the transformation of the spirit. The continuous and uninterrupted flight is not affected at all.
Stopping on the sea, he slightly identified the direction, and then continued to fly towards a certain place.
After two days and two nights, Ye Chunyang finally stopped on an island.
This island is very popular, and there are endless monks coming and going. At this time, in front of him is a ferry, and several giant warships are faintly appearing. The appearance of those warships is not unfamiliar at all. They are flying cloud boats belonging to Lingxian Mansion that are specially used to shuttle through the gravity zone.
After Ye Chunyang stopped at the ferry, he stood there calmly, waiting for the Feiyun boats to dock.
Not long after, the Feiyun boat stopped at the ferry, and a middle-aged cultivator in the God Transformation Stage walked down from it. Ye Chunyang took a look at this person, then took out the Lingxian Order and threw it to him.
The middle-aged cultivator was stunned at first after taking the Lingxian Order, and then felt the powerful void power on Ye Chunyang, and his expression immediately became respectful: "Senior, you have the Lingxian Order, you can stay in the Feiyun boat cabin according to the level of the token, senior, please come in!"
"I'm not here to take the Feiyun boat, but to find someone." Ye Chunyang shook his head and said.
"Looking for someone?" The middle-aged cultivator showed doubts and asked: "I wonder who you are looking for?"
"Is Chu Xuyuan here?" Ye Chunyang said.
The middle-aged cultivator was stunned, and his eyes immediately showed a sense of vigilance when he looked at Ye Chunyang. "Elder Chu is not on the Feiyun Boat. May I ask who you are and whether you have anything to do with Elder Chu? If you don't mind, I can tell you."
"He is not on the Feiyun Boat?" Ye Chunyang frowned. Did he have to make a wasted trip?
He half-closed his eyes and looked at the middle-aged cultivator, and slowly asked, "Is he really not here?"
"Elder Chu is indeed not here." The middle-aged cultivator shook his head.
Ye Chunyang's face became a little gloomy, but then he quickly returned to normal. After taking back the Tianzi Lingxian Order, he said, "Since Chu Xuyuan is not here, I will come back later."
After that, he turned around and left the ferry.
The middle-aged cultivator stood at the bow, bowed and clasped his fists to see him off, and only raised his head slowly after Ye Chunyang left for a while.
No one noticed that a strange look flashed across the middle-aged monk's eyes at this moment. Then, he waved at someone next to him and whispered something in his ear. The other person's expression changed and he hurriedly ran down the ferry, quickly disappearing in a certain direction.
