As the sound of crane calls echoed through the valley, the figure clad in blue robes, Li Jing, also began to slowly descend. However, upon returning to his place of secluded cultivation, he couldn't help but feel bewildered.
Somehow, unbeknownst to him, a winding stone path had appeared between the sheer cliffs. Not only that, at the end of the stone path, there now stood an ancient-looking Taoist temple, causing Li Jing to stare in astonishment.
What was going on here?
Fortunately, his confusion did not last long, as the chubby Guo Nuan, panting heavily, hurried over and exclaimed with excitement, "Immortal!"
"You've finally returned!"
"Had you not come back, I really couldn't have held on much longer!"
"This godforsaken place is just too remote."
Hearing Guo Nuan's complaints, Li Jing couldn't help feeling speechless. Next time you talk like this, maybe you should wipe off the grease from your mouth first…
