Chapter 901: The Thirtieth Year
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Zhou Zhi was very, very busy. This year, they only met during the new year. Now, in the blink of an eye, it was the end of the year again.
However, she would always receive gifts from Zhou Zhi. Among them, there were seeds, jade slips, and enchanted armaments.
Su Xiaolu often wondered how Zhou Zhi felt about her. No matter how she thought about it, she could not figure it out. Instead, she felt troubled. Later on, she did not think too much about it. This way, she understood everything. She did not hate Zhou Zhi, but she could not take the initiative.
If they were together, she would treat him well. If they separated in the end, she would not pester him. If they were not together for the rest of their lives, she would not seem to feel regretful.
She would take anyone’s feelings for her seriously, and she would live for herself, and be a carefree Su Xiaolu.
Hearing footsteps, Su Xiaolu smiled and looked at Zhou Zhi. “Fourth Brother is here.”
Zhou Zhi sat down with a gentle smile and said gently, “Are you going home?” Su Xiaolu nodded. “Yes, I specially came to tell Fourth Brother that I’m going home.”
“How’s Fourth Brother’s comprehension of the Spatial Technique?”
Su Xiaolu asked.
Zhou Zhi smiled and said, “I’ve gained a lot of enlightenment, but it’s still only the tip of the iceberg. Time is too profound. The past can be left in the jade slip through spiritual energy, but the future hasn’t happened. It looks destined, but it will change with every different choice. Perhaps in another universe, there won’t be any fusion of worlds. The possibilities are endless.”
He looked at Su Xiaolu, his eyes becoming focused and silent. Su Xiaolu did not hate him and would even accept him, but he felt that something was wrong.
He would wait a little longer. He would wait a little longer.
Zhou Zhi lowered his eyes and took a sip of tea. He asked, “Xiaolu, have you ever thought of a completely different life?”
“Of course I have. But I think that no matter what choice I made, it must be the best choice I’ve made at that point in time. I don’t regret any decision I made. What I have now is the best.”
Su Xiaolu replied with a smile. Zhou Zhi was talking about parallel time and space. Perhaps in a different universe, she had experienced all kinds of different lives. Love and hatred were sweet and bitter, but those had nothing to do with her. What she could experience was the present, so what she had now was the best.
“Xiaolu understands it well.”
Zhou Zhi smiled. He looked at Su Xiaolu and asked naturally, “Xiaolu, do you think you’ll become a god at the end of your cultivation? From the looks of it, no one knows what it will be like to cultivate to the highest realm. Some little demons can vaguely sense the will of the heavens. As long as they continue to cultivate diligently, they can transcend the Tribulation Transcendence and become gods. Xiaolu, do you want to become a god?”
“Fourth Brother, do you want to become a god?”
Su Xiaolu asked. She did not seem to think too much about whether she could become a god or not. Su Kuo said that after cultivating a certain realm, she could leave the world, but being a god also required her to become stronger. There were things that people had to do, and there were also things that gods had to do.
Did Zhou Zhi want to become a god?
Zhou Zhi smiled and nodded. “Yes, I want to become a god. A person’s life is too short. I don’t know how long a god’s life will be. If I can cultivate till the end, I might be able to understand some things that I can’t understand now. I really want to understand what my previous life was like and what my next life will be like.”
“Fourth Brother is so smart. He will definitely get what he wants.”
Su Xiaolu gave her sincere blessings. She hoped that Zhou Zhi would get what he wanted.
Zhou Zhi was in a good mood. He chuckled. “Thank you, Xiaolu.”
The two of them sat quietly and drank tea. Su Xiaolu left. Zhou Zhi sent her to the entrance of the residence and watched her get on the horse and smile brightly at him before leaving.
Zhou Zhi watched until her figure disappeared. Then, he turned around and returned to the residence.
Without Su Xiaolu around, the temperature around him plummeted countless degrees. It was cold.
Jin Si and Jin Qi followed behind and touched their noses silently.
Master’s thoughts were getting harder and harder to guess. It was only in front of Miss Su that he became a different person.
After so many years, Master clearly liked Miss Su. Apart from giving her things, he didn’t do anything else. They really didn’t know what he was thinking.
Zhou Zhi returned to the weapon refinement room. The flames in the furnace were flowing. He took out his spiritual power and injected it. The huge cauldron in the middle rumbled. His gaze became deeper and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. Xiaolu wished him to get what he wanted. He thought that he would definitely be able to do it too.
His legs grew very slowly, but they were slowly recovering. That day would not be too far away.
Su Xiaolu left the capital and went home. It was almost the end of the year and the city was lively. After leaving the city, it gradually became deserted.
She rode her horse slowly on the way home. When she was tired, she leaned against the horse’s back and let it carry her.
She sank her consciousness into the Space and looked at her small world. After the two worlds fused, she rarely used the Space.
In the spiritual spring, the carp poked out of the water. Su Xiaolu picked it up and played with it. The little carp already had intelligence. It played beside Su
Xiaolu for a while before sinking into the bottom of the spiritual spring. When Su Xiaolu left the Space, snow was already falling from the sky.
She liked the snow very much and looked at the sky quietly.
A few days later, Su Xiaolu arrived in Wuzhou.
When she returned home, a few children surrounded her. Su Xiaolu tested their foundation one by one and they were all improving steadily.
The spiritual energy in the world was getting more and more abundant.
Su Xiaolu couldn’t help but think that the children in the future probably wouldn’t be able to imagine what the peaceful world was like before.
Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao were as gentle as ever. They were older and looked kind.
Chen Shi and Chen Xing were already helping out.
The two old men did not return. Instead, they wrote letters. Old Wu and Gui You had gone out to sea.
In a few short words, they reported that they were safe.
After the New Year’s Eve dinner, Su Xiaolu returned to her room and wrote a reply to her two Masters, saying some of the things she had done in the past two years, including the three disciples she had taken in.
She wondered when the two Masters would receive it.
There was a knock on the door.
“Xiaolu, are you asleep?”
Su Hua asked gently outside the door.
Su Xiaolu said, “Second Brother, come in. I’m not asleep yet. I’m writing to the two Masters.”
Su Hua entered. He had a beard and looked very calm.
“How’s Sanmei’s family?”
After Su Hua sat down beside Su Xiaolu, she asked gently.
Su Xiaolu nodded. “Sister and Third Brother are fine. So are the little guys.”
“Xiaolu, I want to ask you for a favor.”
Su Hua looked at Su Xiaolu and was a little reserved. It had been a long time since the siblings last met. Su Xiaolu was back to spend the new year with her family, but he wanted to trouble her. Su Hua felt a little guilty, but he was at an impasse again.
Su Xiaolu smiled. “What favor? Just tell me. We’re family. You don’t have to be reserved. Tell me.”
They were family. Families helped each other to begin with. Within her abilities, she was duty-bound..
