I have Taoism and can understand other worlds

Chapter 504: Return
In an instant, heaven and earth changed.

The loud roar could be heard throughout Tianyuan City from inside to outside.

Then four rays of light flew out from the four corners of Tianyuan City and flew towards the center.

Countless people looked up at the sky with astonishment. Some of them had never seen such a sight in their lives, while others had only heard rumors passed down from their ancestors.

It is said that a long time ago, when Tianyuan City was in danger of being destroyed, four swords flew out and gathered into a large formation to protect Tianyuan City.

I didn’t expect to see such a scene today. Many people rubbed their eyes in disbelief.

There were even more disputes in the royal city. Xiu Qi sat in the courtyard and looked up at the sky. He was surprised, and then he seemed to have thought of something, and he disappeared instantly.

Jiang Wenji, who was sitting in the palace, opened her eyes and looked outside with a complicated expression. In the end, she only sighed: "Is it still impossible for me to keep you?"

The flying swords gathered together and turned into four rays of light, which then scattered in all directions, enveloping the entire Tianyuan City.

The sky was filled with illusions, and four shadows appeared and disappeared. They were the spirits of the Four Symbols Sword Formation, and also the sacred beasts guarding Tianyuan City.

The commotion was so loud that all the imperial guards in Tianyuan City were mobilized.

The culprit was standing with Wu Ji, looking up at the sky amidst the ruins.

"It's really grand and majestic." Jiang Wen exclaimed.

"Why is there such a movement in the Four Symbols Sword Formation? Tianyuan City should not have been invaded!" Wu Ji was extremely puzzled, her expression was solemn. She looked at Jiang Wen again, with a hint of exploration in her eyes.

"Why are you looking at me?" Jiang Wen asked when he saw her staring at him.

"I've been here several times and never made any noise. You made such a big noise when you came. Could it be..." Wu Ji guessed, and Jiang Wen felt a little uneasy. He didn't want to reveal his true identity and wanted to stay for a few more days.

"Are you a descendant of Shennong?!"

"...I am not a descendant of Shennong." Jiang Wen was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Shennong didn't marry either, right?"

"That's true, but why is this happening?!" Wu Ji was puzzled.

"Maybe that's just the way it is?" Jiang Wen smiled.

The noise from the Four Symbols Formation did not last long, but this farce still kept the imperial guards busy for several days.

Jiang Wen returned to the mansion and saw Xiu Qi in the backyard.

"Why are you here?" Jiang Wen asked.

"I just came to see you." Xiu Qi looked at Jiang Wen with a complicated expression. "I didn't expect you to come back."

"You know it all?"

"Well, after seeing the Four Symbols Sword Formation today, I understand everything." Xiu Qi nodded.

"Since you understand, then you understand. Don't ask any more questions." Jiang Wen shook his head and said calmly, "You have grown up. You are no longer the child you were back then. You should choose which path to take and how to take it. I don't have much influence on you."

"...Disciple understands." Xiu Qi was silent for a long time, and bowed respectfully to Jiang Wen. "But disciple still has something to ask you, I wonder if you can give me some advice."

"Go on." Jiang Wen said with a smile.

"Disciple, I want to know if our master from that time is really dead?" Xiu Qi asked dully.

"He, he is really dead." Jiang Wen sighed. "Whether it is true or not, does it matter now?"

"Disciple just wants to understand."

"Do you understand now?"

"Disciple understands."

The two stood in the yard for a long time without saying anything. Xiu Qi was silent for a while, and finally bowed to Jiang Wen: "I will never forget your kindness. I wonder if you have anything else to say to me."

"Don't forget your original intention." When Jiang Wen thought of the Wuliang Pavilion in the future, he gave Xiuqi an earnest warning.

"Disciple, I understand." Xiu Qi nodded and then left.

Jiang Wen stood there for a long time as he watched Xiu Qi disappear. Then he said helplessly, "You're here too?"

"Let me see you." The man spoke in a ethereal voice.

Jiang Wen turned around and saw Jiang Wenjie standing under the tree looking at him.

"You already know everything, why did you come?" Jiang Wen asked. "Just to say goodbye to you." Jiang Wenji looked normal, but there was a hint of regret in her voice. "You still have to leave."

"Yeah, I have to go." Jiang Wen said with a wry smile. "With so many people watching me, I have to leave."

"Will we meet again?" Jiang Wenjie asked.

"Maybe we'll meet again when we meet again."

"Okay, I understand." Jiang Wenjie responded and walked in front of Jiang Wen.

The two looked at each other, and Jiang Wen felt a hand touching his face.

“Although it has changed, it’s still so familiar.”

"You should have known this a long time ago, right?"

"Well, I knew it the moment I saw you."

"so……"

"So I want to keep you here." Jiang Wenji pursed her lips and looked up at Jiang Wen. "But, I can't keep you here."

"I am not from this world, how can I stay here?" Jiang Wen shook his head. "Don't waste your time."

"I just want you to stay, why can't you?" Jiang Wenji asked through gritted teeth. "Is it just fate? What about fate?"

"You can't force it." Jiang Wen smiled bitterly. "You'd better take good care of yourself."

"You..." Jiang Wenji wanted to say something, but the words were pale and powerless. She looked at Jiang Wen deeply, then moved closer.

At that moment, the fragrance came, and heaven and earth returned together. Jiang Wen felt the tenderness on his lips and the drop of cold water.

His world changed, everything was empty. A great repulsive force pushed him into the boundless void, and countless stars passed away.

"Forget-me-not."

That last gentle voice came and continued to echo in his ears.

When Jiang Wen regained consciousness, he was already standing in a cave.

There were no tall buildings or blue skies around. Everything in Tianyuan City seemed like a dream.

"Am I... back?" Jiang Wen looked around, then subconsciously touched his lips. There was still some warmth at the corner of Jiang Wenji's lips, and a teardrop hung on the tip of her nose.

Those were Jiang Wenjie's tears, and what he experienced was real.

She stretched out her finger and caught the tear, which instantly turned into a crystal pearl. For someone at her level, every part of her body was a treasure. This tear contained the essence of pure water, and could be considered a treasure from heaven and earth.

After staring at the teardrop for a long time, Jiang Wen put it away.

He thought for a long time and just sighed.

"commit a sin."

……

Jiang Wen came back, and he returned to the cave under Mount Buzhou. That was the passage to the hiding place of the Yuyun Clan, and also the place where the meat soil was.

Walking along the cave, Jiang Wen soon arrived at the meat soil.

The first thing I saw was the locust tree that covered the sky and the ground. I didn’t know how much time had passed here.

The flesh on the soil had long been devoured, and there was no trace of the monks around. Only one gap blew in the cold wind, which was the gap that Jiang Wen had opened in the fight with the monster.

Just as I was thinking about what to do, I heard a joyful voice.

"Brother! You're finally back!"

A petite figure threw himself into his arms, and Jiang Wen hugged her until he could see her appearance clearly.

"Zile, how did you become like this?"

Looking at Zi Le's current appearance, he was quite surprised.
