The blizzard ceased, the dark clouds dispersed, the sun rose, the ice and snow gradually melted, and all things began to revive anew.

Mu Jinyu and Yu Shenfeng hurried back to Yinlong Mountain from the Southern Sea. Along the way, they saw countless ancient trees, once frozen to death, begin to bud anew. In many places where the snow was not deep, lush flowers and plants started to grow, painting a vibrant scene full of life.

In places where the snow was deeper, there were also incredibly resilient exotic herbs, piercing through the thick snow layer, adding a fresh touch of green to the white world.

Most importantly, these mutated flowers, plants, and reborn ancient trees exuded a sense of spirituality, as if they were the spirit roots of heaven and earth.

Mu Jinyu felt that perhaps they could all be used in medicine refining.

And the density of the spiritual energy dispersed in the air was more than ten times richer compared to nine days ago!

Mu Jinyu and Yu Shenfeng could understand why their cultivation levels could suddenly soar.

With such density of spiritual energy, perhaps a newborn child could have the cultivation of Dark Energy or Energy Transformation, and if they have exceptionally high talent, they might even be born with the cultivation of the Divinity Transformation Realm!

This speculation was extremely terrifying!

But Mu Jinyu thought that if the spiritual energy revival on Earth didn't stop, such things might indeed occur in the future.

Soon, Mu Jinyu and Yu Shenfeng returned to Yinlong Mountain.

And San Liu, Qiu Bai, and the others, who received Mu Jinyu's message, had already returned to Yinlong Mountain a day earlier. When they saw Yu Shenfeng return, they all gathered around, concernedly asking about Yu Shenfeng's condition.

Because yesterday, when Mu Jinyu informed them that Yu Shenfeng had been found, he also mentioned Yu Shenfeng's injuries to them.

Yu Shenfeng's face showed a gentle smile as he shook his head and said, "It's fine now. Don't you know the Dragon Master's medical skills? There's not a single internal injury left."

"Master, my cultivation is now at the Third Layer of the Fanxu Realm as well…"

Qiu Bai said to Yu Shenfeng somewhat proudly.

"Me too, but I'm at the middle stage of the Third Layer of the Fanxu Realm, stronger than you…"

Chen Xiuying also chimed in, glancing at Qiu Bai with a bit of smugness in her eyes.

San Liu, although having a master-disciple relationship with Yu Shenfeng, had studied under him for only about a year. Unlike Qiu Bai and Chen Xiuying, who were raised by Yu Shenfeng from a young age, he naturally lacked that deep sense of admiration and wouldn't speak to Yu Shenfeng in such a manner.

But Yu Shenfeng could also tell that San Liu's cultivation had reached the later stage of the Third Layer of the Fanxu Realm, even stronger than Qiu Bai and Chen Xiuying!

As for Nameless, originally because she needed to stabilize her cultivation, she hadn't attempted to break through the Fanxu Realm, but due to yesterday's spiritual energy surge, her cultivation reached the middle stage of the Second Layer of the Fanxu Realm.

"Hmm, very good…" Yu Shenfeng praised Qiu Bai and Chen Xiuying.

Mu Jinyu, on the other hand, did not join in their master-disciple merriment, but instead approached Mu Hongchen and Su Zijin.

"Mom, Aunt Mu, Xiyan…"

After greeting the women, he asked, "How is it now? Has Xia Ruochen started arranging for people to leave the famous mountains?"

On the way back with Yu Shenfeng, he had already informed Mu Hongchen in Qinling via Communication Talisman about the blizzard's cessation, asking her to contact Xia Ruochen, also in Qinling, to possibly clear the snow and arrange for people to leave the famous mountains.

After receiving the news, Gu Xiyan and the others had all returned to Yinlong Mountain accordingly.

"Not yet, though many in our Dragon King Hall and Great Xia Dragon Sparrow have currently broken through from Dark Energy and Energy Transformation to the Divinity Transformation Realm, making it much easier to clear the snow, but Huaxia is so vast, how could it be cleared in just one day? However, some might have started arranging to return…"

Mu Hongchen said to Mu Jinyu.

Mu Jinyu nodded slightly, saying, "That's true, in that case, I'll first go see your families…"

His last sentence was addressed to Gu Xiyan and the others.

He had been back from the Kunlun Ruins for some time already but hadn't yet gone to see the families of Gu Xiyan, Xu Qingya, Yu Linglong's father, and Lin Qiaoxia's parents.

Now that they had been brought back to Yinlong Mountain for refuge recently and he was not as busy, he could take the time to visit them.

"Alright, my grandpa has been wanting to thank you in person."

Gu Xiyan, hearing Mu Jinyu's words, nodded with a smile.

Xu Qingya also nodded, saying, "My grandpa too, he said he hasn't seen you in a long time…"

"Okay, I'll go see them all later." Mu Jinyu said with a smile.

Xu Qingya's grandfather, Xu Tianzheng, was the first patient Mu Jinyu encountered after descending Yinlong Mountain. He was also the first source of funding he acquired from the Xu Family.

His former Jinyu Group also developed from a small company in the Xu Family.

Every time he recalled this period, Mu Jinyu, although it seemed to have only been over a year, felt especially nostalgic.

Perhaps it was because, back then, he didn't have as many responsibilities on his shoulders, so he could live more freely and easily?

And now, as the Dragon King, Hall Master of the Dragon King Hall, he had to shoulder some of the responsibilities he should bear.

Then, Mu Jinyu followed the women to a dormitory building on Yinlong Mountain.

He also met Xu Tianzheng and Gu Zhengxin, who instead of aging, appeared even younger.

Among Mu Jinyu's six wives, Gu Xiyan and Xu Qingya's grandfathers were still alive, Mei Yinxue was an orphan with no family, Wen Rou had only a mother and the Chen Family at the Kunlun Ruins, Yu Linglong had only a father left, and Lin Qiaoxia's parents were alive but her grandparents had passed away early.

Therefore, the ones Mu Jinyu could call grandpa were only these two old gentlemen.

When Gu Zhengxin saw Mu Jinyu appearing, he held his hand warmly with a face full of gratitude.

But his feelings were very complex.

He knew full well that if it wasn't for his granddaughter being with Mu Jinyu, he, an old man, even if he survived the first wave of darkness upheaval and the second ferocious beast frenzy, wouldn't have survived this third Ice Age.

He had many old friends who, without the aid of the Dragon King Hall, also managed to survive the first two calamities, but during this blizzard, which lasted just nine days, they all perished…

Recalling how he once forced Gu Xiyan to marry this or that person to gain benefits for the Gu Family, Gu Zhengxin felt a deep sense of shame and self-reproach.

When he and Gu Xiyan started selling Beauty Pills at the Jinyu Group, the Gu Family once completely turned against Gu Xiyan, yet in the dark upheaval Gu Xiyan still saved them without holding a grudge.

This short year felt like a hundred years to him, leaving him with a sigh of the changing times.

Gu Zhengxin felt neither resentment nor dissatisfaction towards Gu Xiyan and Mu Jinyu, only a complex mixture of remorse, self-blame, and heartfelt gratitude.

Xu Tianzheng also sighed with emotion towards Mu Jinyu.

He never imagined that the boy from back then would become someone who has repeatedly saved the Xu Family several times.

Perhaps, this was the most successful investment of his life?
