Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

#63 - Yueyao's strange dream

Xu Daoling and Kongxu saw the look in Jun Wuxie's eyes and suddenly felt something was wrong, so they quietly slipped away.

“Brother, what's wrong?” Yueyao immediately lowered her head and whispered, “Did Yueyao do something wrong again…”

“No.” Jun Wuxie stepped forward and picked her up, saying, “Don't do these things in the future. Wait until you grow up and then cook for your brother. Let your brother do these things now.”

“But I just want to cook for brother.” She said aggrievedly, “Before, Yueyao secretly watched the chefs in the kitchen garden cook, thinking that one day, she could also cook for brother, but… but Yueyao is not capable and can't earn money to buy those ingredients…”

Jun Wuxie felt a pang of heartache and said with a smile, “Who said my Yueyao is not capable? Those children who are even older than you can't do anything. You are already very, very amazing.”

“Really?”

“Of course, it's true.” Jun Wuxie wiped her little face and said, “Let brother do the rest, okay?”

After he finished speaking, he started to stir-fry the dishes in the pot, but found Yueyao squatting in front of the sink, washing something. He couldn't help but ask, “Yueyao, what are you washing?”

“Wild vegetables.” She grabbed a wild vegetable and shook it, smiling sweetly, “Yueyao dug these this afternoon. There are so many wild vegetables here, we can make a lot of wild vegetable soup.”

Jun Wuxie smiled, but felt very uncomfortable in his heart.

Now, there is food to eat, and there is no shortage of fish and meat.

In the eyes of others, it may be incomprehensible why Yueyao would still dig wild vegetables.

But he knew what those wild vegetables, which even poor people looked down upon, meant to little Yueyao.

That was a memory belonging to her and him.

Although that memory was unbearable, it was very precious.

That was half a year of dependence, a true dependence for survival!

After preparing the dishes, he and Yueyao made some wild vegetable soup together, adding some seasonings.

“It's good to have disciples, there's food to eat every day. Only by experiencing the smoke and fire of the world can one know the taste of life.”

Grandpa Jiu was very happy, looking at the table full of dishes, his saliva was about to flow down.

“Brother Wuxie, eat this!”

Little Yueyao was extremely happy and put a chicken leg into Jun Wuxie's bowl.

“It's amazing to have a younger sister.” Xu Daoling was very jealous and looked at Yueyao, saying, “I want one too.”

“If you want it, get it yourself. Yueyao will only get food for brother in this lifetime.”

“Hmph, if you don't get it, then don't get it, forget it!”

Xu Daoling curled his lips and was about to grab the remaining chicken leg, but Jun Wuxie snatched it first and gave it to Yueyao.

“You siblings are bullying people!”

The little Taoist was unhappy and protested loudly.

“Stop it.” Grandpa Jiu knocked him on the head with his wine gourd, saying, “Did you pay for it? Did you cook? You open your mouth to eat, and you still have such high demands?”

Immediately, the little Taoist stopped talking.

Jun Wuxie finished eating the chicken leg and scooped a bowl of wild vegetable soup, drinking it with relish.

Now, when he drinks wild vegetable soup, it seems to taste especially delicious.

It's not that the taste of the wild vegetables has changed, but the mood is different.

Xu Daoling and Kongxu couldn't help but try a bite when they saw him eating so deliciously.

As a result, they immediately spat it out.

“What is this thing? Why is it so bitter?”

They stuck out their tongues, looking at Jun Wuxie and his sister like they were monsters. How could they eat it so deliciously?

Yueyao said naively, “I think it's very delicious. There's salt and oil. We didn't have anything before. This wild vegetable soup is really delicious now.”

“What a pair of monster siblings…”

Xu Daoling and Kongxu couldn't help but complain.

Grandpa Jiu and Uncle Bird looked at Jun Wuxie and little Yueyao thoughtfully, seeming to understand something.

After eating, Grandpa Jiu handed over the task of washing dishes to Xu Daoling and Kongxu, which made these two guys complain a lot.

“Yueyao, are you used to it here?”

After dinner, Jun Wuxie held her in the yard to watch the stars.

“It's very good here, with brother by my side.” Yueyao blinked her big eyes, and then said quietly, “Brother, Yueyao had a very strange dream this morning.”

“What dream? Tell brother about it.”

He was very curious. Yueyao had never said that she would dream.

Her expression was a little unnatural, and she said, “Yueyao dreamed that brother also became small, um… about the same size as Yueyao. The world in the dream was so beautiful, and there were so many big stars in the sky.”

“It's just that later, brother and Yueyao were trapped in a very strange place and couldn't get out. For a long, long time, no one came…” Speaking of this, her eyes were filled with tears, and she sobbed in a low voice, her little face turning very pale.

“Yueyao, what's wrong?” Jun Wuxie comforted her, “Did you have a nightmare? Don't be afraid, it's just a dream.”

“But Yueyao is really scared…” She said in a weeping voice, “Yueyao dreamed… dreamed that she was going to starve to death, and brother secretly gave Yueyao a piece of meat, giving one piece every day…”

“Later, one day, someone finally found us. It was a very beautiful, very beautiful aunt. She said she was brother's mother. She discovered the wound covered on brother's body, and Yueyao realized that the meat Yueyao ate was… Wuwu…”

She cried loudly, her small body trembling constantly.

“Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, it's all just a dream, it's not real, it's not real.” Jun Wuxie comforted her, lifting up his clothes, saying, “Look, brother doesn't have the kind of wound you said.”

“Brother, Yueyao is a bad child, how could Yueyao eat brother's meat, wuwu… how could she…”

She seemed unable to hear Jun Wuxie's words, crying incessantly, her voice becoming hoarse. While crying, she fell asleep.

In her dream, her body still trembled from time to time, and there were murmurs in her mouth, her face full of sadness and fear.

“Silly girl, if brother's meat can cure your illness, even if it's all cut off, brother is willing. You are more important than brother's life, do you know?”

He gently stroked her little face and tapped her sleeping acupoint to put her into a deeper sleep, reducing the possibility of nightmares.

“Why would Yueyao have such a dream?”

He looked at the stars in the sky, feeling a little strange in his heart.

Yueyao's dream was too cruel for her.

It was strange in itself to suddenly have such a dream, and her mother even appeared in the dream.

The term 'mother' appeared in prehistoric civilizations, when children called their mothers 'mama'.

“Could this be the unusual change Grandpa Jiu mentioned?”

Jun Wuxie couldn't help but think of those words Grandpa Jiu said in the morning. Could it be that he was referring to Yueyao having strange dreams?

“Mother, where are you? Do you know that father is gone, and I almost died too…”

His thoughts were a little scattered. A mother should be someone very familiar to a child, but to him, she was extremely unfamiliar, so unfamiliar that there was no impression in his mind at all.

It wasn't until late at night that he returned to the house, holding Yueyao and falling asleep.

He got up very early in the morning, prepared breakfast, left a portion for Yueyao who was still asleep, and after eating, he went to the back mountain with Uncle Bird and others to continue tempering his body.

The days passed by day by day.

Jun Wuxie, Xu Daoling, and Kongxu all made very obvious progress.

Xu Daoling and Kongxu's cultivation methods have remained unchanged.

Jun Wuxie was different. There was a needle as thick as a chopstick on his iron fist.

Before, he used his iron fist to hammer, but now he uses the needle on his iron fist to hammer.

Uncle Bird said that this was to refine the strength of a local body.

As a result, Jun Wuxie was covered in wounds every day, his whole body covered in blood.

However, in this process, he broke through.

On the fifth day of cultivation in the back mountain, he successfully broke through to the Innate Limit Realm, and his physical strength directly soared by a factor of one!

Uncle Bird was shocked. Jun Wuxie, who was still torn and bloody yesterday, was actually able to resist the metal needle on the iron fist today. Although it could still pierce his flesh, it was difficult to penetrate deeply.

At the moment of penetration, it would be resisted by his blood and qi, and clamped tightly by his powerful muscles, making it difficult to move forward.

“Your realm is clearly still at the peak of the tenth transformation of the Innate Realm, how could your physical strength suddenly increase overnight?” Uncle Bird looked at Jun Wuxie, and as he looked, he suddenly revealed a strange expression, saying, “You… could it be that you have stepped into the Innate Limit Realm?”

There seemed to be no other reason to explain it.

Thinking of this possibility, Uncle Bird trembled with excitement.

“Good, good! Body and sword dual cultivation in the Innate Limit Realm, this is simply unimaginable!”

He was too happy, and couldn't help but shed tears. The future of Zongwang Academy must have a day of rise!

Body cultivation entering the Limit Realm is simply unheard of. It is much more difficult than those who cultivate true qi to enter the Limit Realm, but it is also stronger!

“Mu Qianshan, come out and meet.”

A cold voice interrupted Uncle Bird's thoughts. His eyes instantly turned cold as knives, and the muscles on his face twitched a few times fiercely. He suddenly turned his head to look at the mountainside.

There, there were one old and three young people, climbing up the mountain and arriving in front of the small courtyard.

He Jianyun brought three proud and cold-eyed disciples.

Little Yueyao was drying flower petals in the courtyard, which she had picked in the mountains these past two days.

Seeing the people from the Great River Sword Sect coming, she was so frightened that she turned around and ran, rushing into the main hall and shaking Grandpa Jiu, who was sleeping with a wine gourd in his mouth, with all her strength.

“Grandpa Jiu, bad people are here, wake up!”

But Grandpa Jiu was snoring and couldn't be woken up no matter how hard she shook him. Yueyao could only hide behind him.

He Jianyun stopped at the entrance of the main hall and glanced inside coldly, then turned around and headed towards the back mountain.

The corners of his mouth curled into a sneer, and the three elite disciples behind him each carried a lantern in their hands.

The head lanterns of the Zongwang Academy disciples!
