Chapter 658: Chapter 658 – Return Home
Lightning crackled in mid-air as a destructive aura spread in all directions, shrouding the entire Hao Hua Sect.
“That’s…” An afterimage appeared, followed by the appearance of the Hao Hua Sect leader. His expression was grave as he stared at the lightning in mid-air. “A lightning tribulation?” Doubt flashed in his eyes.
Lightning tribulations were not rare. All cultivators had to experience it. Ordinary lightning tribulations could be seen within the entire Hao Hua Sect every once in a while.
However, the power of the lightning tribulation was so powerful that it even made the Hao Hua Sect leader feel terrified. The unbelievably powerful lightning tribulation truly made him feel surprised.
“Could it be…” He seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes revealed an expression of wild joy.
Next, he looked into the area in the distance and saw a vague figure there. It seemed to exist but also seemed not to exist. The figure’s image was also very blurry, looking like a reflection. The blurry image looked terrifying, like a God or a devil. A strand of aura emanated from it and seemed to be able to shake the firmament and destroy the universe.
Even the Heavenly Venerate, the Hao Hua Sect leader, couldn’t help but feel a bit of pressure before him. He had a vague feeling that he was facing an equally strong existence.
A strand of Heavenly Venerate aura was born, spreading in all directions. It was like a divine sword sweeping across, suppressing the firmament.
“As expected.” The Hao Hua Sect leader looked at the figure before him, and a glimpse of understanding flashed in his eyes. His face was filled with even more joy than before. He continued forward, surrounded by several other figures.
They were the grand elders of the Hao Hua Sect, each of whom was at least a half-step Heavenly Venerate. They had been alarmed by the lightning tribulation and had emerged from secluded meditation. Their faces were filled with joy as they looked at the lightning tribulation in the sky and the figure before them.
“Good!” An old man was delighted and couldn’t help but say, “As expected of the once-in-a-thousand-years immortal fetus of our Hao Hua Sect. It has already come into contact with the Heavenly Venerate’s domain.”
“He has reached the Heavenly Venerate stage. He will be able to reach that step as long as he undergoes the lightning tribulation.” Another elder spoke up, his face beaming with joy.
Everyone was very happy. After all, such a young Heavenly Venerate would be able to lead the Hao Hua Sect forward in the future.
“Let’s wait and see.” The Hao Hua Sect leader waved his hand to stop everyone from talking and turned his attention back to the front.
To their surprise, the lightning continued to pass by before them as if it wanted to destroy everything in the surrounding. However, it didn’t land in the end, as if it hadn’t found its target. After a moment, the lightning began to dissipate and gradually disappeared.
In the sky, dark clouds dispersed and then gradually disappeared. Then, they disappeared as if nothing had happened. The people around were confused, but before they could figure it out, a figure appeared again.
It was Yue Hua. Yue Hua’s aura had changed compared to before as if hundreds or thousands of years had passed instantly. There were more vicissitudes and chaos over him.
However, his aura was unprecedentedly powerful. Even the Heavenly Venerate, the Hao Hua Sect leader, was cautious of the terrifying aura. As they had said before, Yue Hua was only a heavenly tribulation away from being a Heavenly Venerate. He would be a true heavenly venerate once he overcame the heavenly tribulation.
However, even though he hadn’t passed the heavenly tribulation, Yue Hua gave people the feeling that he was no weaker than any Heavenly Venerate.
“Master.” Yue Hua came to the front of the crowd again. He slowly walked forward and bowed respectfully, “I want to leave for a while.”
“Leave?” Everyone was puzzled.
“You want to leave?” Sect Master Hao Hua seemed to have understood something. He nodded and encouraged, “Go. No matter what you want to do, I will support you.” He patted Yue Hua’s shoulder and said with a smile.
“Thank you, Master.” Yue Hua couldn’t help but smile when he heard the Hao Hua Sect leader’s words, then he nodded seriously, “Don’t worry, Master. I will come back in a hundred years.”
A hundred years was three or four generations for mortals, but it was nothing for existences at their level. Even a Nascent Soul cultivator had a lifespan of two to three thousand years, not to mention people like them.
After bidding farewell to Hao Hua Sect Master and the others, Yue Hua quickly left the Hao Hua Sect. In the Hao Hua Sect, after hearing that Yue Hua was going to leave and travel around, many people immediately came to his door, hoping to become his followers and become his lackeys.
Although Yue Hua had not been in the Hao Hua Sect for a long time, he was easy-going and was willing to promote his junior brothers and sisters. Moreover, he used to preach for free and had made many good connections over the past ten years. As a result, he was very popular in the Hao Hua Sect.
Therefore, when they heard that he was leaving, many people came to him, hoping to leave with him. However, Yue Hua refused them one by one and finally chose to travel alone. He continued on his journey, ready to truly explore the world.
He had a premonition at this moment. Becoming a Heavenly Venerate was very important to him, and he could not take it easy. New changes would occur in his body once he overcame this threshold. By then, everything would be different.
It was precisely because of this feeling that he did not immediately attempt to transcend the tribulation. Instead, he forcibly suppressed his heavenly tribulation and did not attempt to transcend it immediately.
Time passed slowly, and another half a year passed. Yue Hua traveled around for half a year, looking for natural creation. He did not say a word and just traveled around by himself, admiring the wonders of nature and the various natural creation between heaven and earth.
Unknowingly, the divine power in his body transformed on its own, becoming more and more refined. He returned to his hometown after that. A lively family seemed to be living in a small city. They were a large family in the local area and were very prosperous.
There were rumors in the local area that someone in this family had once entered an immortal family and was a high and mighty near-immortal. He also had a certain connection with the local overlord, Yue Ming Sect. Therefore, even the city lord usually respected this family very much and had a very high status in the local area.
This family was none other than the family that Yue Hua was born. The change in time was extremely obvious to the world, especially mortals. Forty to fifty years had passed in a flash. The small mountain village from before had now become a bustling town.
The ordinary peasant household in the countryside gradually multiplied and became a large household in the area. The local Yue Hua Sect had contributed significantly to such a change. Dao Master Yue Ming, who had taken Yue Hua away, was very concerned of everything about Yue Hua.
After taking Yue Hua away, Dao Master Yue Ming was afraid that one day, if an accident happened to Yue Hua’s biological parents, it might affect Yue Hua’s Dao determination and disrupt his cultivation. Therefore, he had always sent people to take good care of that family and constantly supported them.
And with the protection of the Yue Ming Sect, that family lived in peace, and no one in the local area dared to do anything to them.
“The courtyard has become bigger…” Yue Hua said softly at the decorations around him as many thoughts flashed through his mind.
Yue Hua came to this place to take a look before he left the Yue Ming Sect. The courtyard was not as huge, and there were not many people around. How could it be so prosperous now? Now that he looked at it again, it looked completely different.
He looked at the door before him and paused as he walked to the side alone., and could not help but hesitate. He did not know if he should go in. He wanted to meet his biological parents. Even though it had been forty to fifty years, his biological parents were still alive and well with the nourishment of elixirs. They were very healthy and could still live for a few decades. He was just about to step in when he saw a scene.
“Where did this beggar come from? Get out of here!” A series of reprimands sounded.
Before the Zhu Family Sect, a few ragged-clothed beggars knelt on the ground and begged, hoping to receive some assistance. However, they were beaten up, and their bodies were bruised and swollen. Many of them were bleeding.
Yue Hua looked over. These people were too heavy-handed and looked arrogant. His footsteps stopped. He was stunned and sighed silently. He walked forward softly and placed some money before the few beggars. Then, he quietly used his divine power to baptize their injuries and heal them.
Then, he walked in silently without saying a word, ignoring the beggar’s gratitude. Finally, he just walked through the door without saying a word. However, no one could see him, let alone stop him.
He walked in and soon saw his biological father. He was a man in his sixties, but he still looked very strong. His body was still strong under the elixirs’ nourishment, even if he didn’t exercise much.
In the spacious and gorgeous room, he was flirting with several women and would violently suppress the women and laugh from time to time.
Yue Hua’s biological mother, also old but looking to be in her forties, had a gloomy face in the other courtyard. She held a whip in her hand and beat her servant, almost beating him to death.
She did it because the servant had accidentally touched her clothes and dirtied her clean clothes. The other people around were expressionless, but their hearts were filled with fear.
Yue Hua’s other blood relatives and some of his later-born brothers were also in the other courtyard. They were all doing their things, drunk to death.
