Chapter 568 The Promise of That Year

Not long after entering the Funiu Mountain Protective Array with Song Yuanfang, Liu Yuxin soon saw a bluestone gate built by the Song family at the entrance of the mountain.

Looking at the huge bluestone in front of her, which had been weathered but had not changed much, immediately evoked memories in Liu Yuxin's mind, and she couldn't help but stop for a moment and take a closer look.

When she left Funiu Mountain, Liu Yuxin was still young, and many of her childhood memories were already blurred, but she had a deep memory of the tall gate made of a large stone at the foot of the mountain.

"Did Liu Daoyou come to Funiu Mountain before?" Seeing Liu Yuxin's somewhat abnormal behavior, Song Yuanfang also noticed something wrong in his heart, and asked with a tentative smile.

Liu Yuxin immediately woke up from her memories after hearing this, and after retracting her gaze, the expression on her face quickly returned to normal.

"I have been here before, but it was a long time ago, so I don't remember it very clearly!"

Song Yuanfang smiled and nodded slightly, saying, "The spiritual vein of Funiu Mountain was upgraded to the third-level lower grade not long ago after the ancestor formed the elixir. Many places on the mountain have indeed changed a lot in recent years. If you haven't been here for a long time, it is normal for you to be unfamiliar with it."

"Well! What you said is true. It is easy to forget many things over time. We have practiced for decades, while mortals have already hurriedly gone through their lives. I don't know how many memories we can leave for us. Fellow Yuanfang, are your family members still alive before you practiced?"

After Liu Yuxin finished speaking, his eyes shifted to a mortal town not far from the foot of the mountain.

"Well, I have been practicing for nearly a hundred years. My parents and brothers and sisters have long passed away, but there are still many younger generations living at the foot of the mountain. When I think of them occasionally, I will go down the mountain to see them.

Although the life span of mortals is shorter than that of us cultivators, they don't have the troubles that we need to experience in practice. Except for some differences in wealth, they are actually more satisfied than us in their daily lives."

Hearing Liu Yuxin mention her family at the foot of the mountain, Song Yuanfang gradually showed a hint of surprise on his face, and was a little confused about her question.

Without waiting for Song Yuanfang to think more, Liu Yuxin stood there and pondered for a moment, then turned around and bowed slightly to Song Yuanfang.

"I have learned a lot from what Daoist Fellow Yuan Fang said just now."

Song Yuanfang waved his hand and said, "Haha! He is just a person who is not doing well on the road and just sighed a few words. Daoist Fellow Liu does not need to be so polite. Ancestor Qingyu is still on the mountain and is anxious to see you. Let's go up quickly, so that she won't wait too long!"

Liu Yuxin smiled and nodded, and the two of them quickened their pace to the top of the mountain!

After a cup of tea, Song Qingyu, who had already placed a lot of spiritual tea and spiritual fruit on the stone table in the cave, smiled immediately when he saw Liu Yuxin who followed Song Yuanfang in, and took the initiative to walk towards her.

"Greetings, Senior Qingyu!"

Seeing the polite Liu Yuxin, Song Qingyu smiled and nodded slightly, then waved to Song Yuanfang beside him and said, "Yuanfang, you have worked hard. If you have nothing to do, go down and get busy first!"

Seeing Song Qingyu so happy, Song Yuanfang glanced at the stone table not far away, and then said, "Grandma, there are guests here today. Should I tell the Cangjin Pavilion to get some more spiritual wine to send to you later?"

"Well! That's good, you are still thoughtful. Go directly to Fu Sanshan and ask him for some better quality spiritual wine. If that kid dares to fool you again, just say that I told him to do it!"

After Song Yuanfang bowed and left the cave, Song Qingyu immediately stepped forward to close the cave door, restarted the forbidden magic circle at the door, and then turned to look at Liu Yuxin, walked up to her with a happy face, took her hand and sat aside.

"I haven't seen you for decades. I didn't expect that Yu Xin has also successfully established his foundation. Seeing that your path is so smooth, I am really happy for you. Come and try these. I specially prepared them for you."

Liu Yuxin took the spiritual fruit handed over by Song Qingyu with a smile, and said coquettishly: "Haha! After so many years of separation, I thought that Uncle Qingyu didn't like me a long time ago. It seems that I thought too much. Sure enough, you still love me the most."

"You little ungrateful wolf, I left you so many cultivation pills when I left, and you forgot that I gave you your name. If I don't love you in this world, who else will love you?" Song Qingyu said, and then personally poured Liu Yuxin a cup of fragrant spiritual tea.

"Well! Uncle Qingyu treats me the best." Liu Yuxin picked up the spiritual tea on the table and echoed with a smile on her face.

Liu Yuxin, who came to Funiu Mountain, was the little girl named Liu who was born with spiritual roots and was taken away by He Mengxin from Liujia Village at the foot of the mountain.

When Liu Yuxin left Funiushan, she was only five or six years old. She followed He Mengxin and Song Qingyu to the East China Sea to travel. When Song Qingyu left them and came back from the East China Sea, she had grown into a graceful young lady.

Because they had been together for nearly ten years, and Song Qingyu had always loved and cared for this child from Funiushan, Liu Yuxin and Song Qingyu naturally had a very close relationship.

"I haven't seen you for decades, but your temper hasn't changed at all. You're causing trouble at the foot of the mountain right after you came back, and you even dared to fight with Changze and the others. Fortunately, Yuanfang and the others didn't make things difficult for you, otherwise, if something happened to you, how would I explain to your master later?"

"You blamed me wrongly. This time, it was those guys who were arrogant and unreasonable and attacked me first. If you don't believe me, ask fellow Taoist Yuanfang. But don't worry, they are not my opponents. If they really couldn't beat me, I would have moved you out long ago."

Song Qingyu naturally knew that Liu Yuxin was always a little eccentric and never suffered any loss. Hearing her answer, he was not surprised, and a helpless smile appeared on his face.

"Yuxin, has Sister He succeeded in forming the elixir? Did you come back alone or with your master?"

When Liu Yuxin heard Song Qingyu mention her master He Mengxin, the smile on her face instantly faded, revealing a serious expression. She took out an unopened letter from her body and carefully handed it to Song Qingyu in front of her.

"Master, she had already succeeded in forming the elixir six years ago. She had something to do over there and couldn't get away. She asked me to come back to you first, saying that she wanted to fulfill a promise we made that year.

Before I came here, I asked my master, but she still refused to tell me what the matter was. She only told me to give this letter to you or Senior Song Qingming. I think you should understand everything after reading this."

"Oh! I had a lot of promises with your master back then, but I really can't remember them for a while."

Song Qingyu took the letter from Liu Yuxin's hand with a smile on her face. After opening it and reading it for a while, her eyes turned back to Liu Yuxin's face again, and the expression on her face gradually became a little complicated.

"What's wrong, uncle? What did the master say in the letter?" Seeing the strange look on Song Qingyu's face, Liu Yuxin asked her curiously.

"Yuxin, stay here first. I'll ask Yuan Fang to arrange a place for you to live. I can't make the decision on my own about what your master told me to do. I need to discuss it with Brother Qi.

Brother Qi went out to another place some time ago. It is estimated that he will be back in about one or two months. Don't worry, I will tell you everything I should tell you after I have discussed it with him. Don't ask too much now!" Song Qingyu put away the letter in her hand and replied to Liu Yuxin with a serious face.

Seeing that the expression on Song Qingyu's face was beyond doubt, Liu Yuxin was very confused, but she didn't say anything more. She could only nod obediently.

——

The eighth floor of the "Tower of Babel", in a valley full of flames.

Li Mufeng was fighting fiercely in the air with a giant bear monster in the Nascent Soul stage with flames all over its body. Bai Yuxian and the others who came in with Li Mufeng were trying hard to stop hundreds of low-level monsters with flames all over their bodies not far away.

After a larger Jindan monster fell in front of the others, Li Wutong quickly said to Bai Yuxian beside him:

"Senior Sister Bai, although there are many monsters left, the strongest is only at the Foundation Establishment stage. Junior Brother Chen and I are here to deal with them. You should go and help Uncle Li first!"

After taking a look at the battlefield not far away, Bai Yuxian nodded at Li Wutong and immediately turned into a beam of light and flew to Li Mufeng.

The giant bear that fought against Li Mufeng was a spirit monster that had reached the second level of the Nascent Soul. Although its cultivation level was not much different from Li Mufeng's, as a spirit monster formed by the restriction in the "Tower of Babel", this giant bear had no intelligence and relied entirely on the instinct of the restriction to attack and defend.

After dealing with the giant bear for a while, Li Mufeng, who was much stronger than the opponent, had already taken the advantage. With the help of Bai Yuxian, Li Mufeng quickly suppressed his opponent.

Half an hour later, with the unwilling roar of the flame giant bear, Li Mufeng chopped the red core in its body with a sword, ending the life of the spirit monster.

After dealing with his opponent, Li Mufeng quickly came to a place in the middle of the valley, full of blazing flames.

Li Mufeng waved his hand to cast a blue shield, and then stepped directly into the flames. After a long time, he walked out of it again, with a golden ginseng glowing in his hand.

Seeing the ginseng in Li Mufeng's hand, which turned out to be a high-level spiritual object of the fourth lower grade, Bai Yuxian and the other two who had already dealt with the remaining low-level spiritual monsters rushed over, immediately showed a smile that could not be concealed on their faces.

"Congratulations, Master Li!"
