In the spring of this year, Li Xiuyuan did not make wine, and Hua Luoyu and Xiao Ju did not steam apricot blossom cakes.

Because neither woman expected that Li Xiuyuan would plant apricot flowers on the Tianshan Mountains. It’s difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without rice. Neither woman was prepared, so what should they do?

Li Xiuyuan asked a group of little guys how many snowflakes they had chopped at the foot of the mountain in winter. Only Wang Ruyi chuckled, and the others were silent and did not dare to speak.

Li Xiuyuan thought for a moment, looked at Watson and said, "Are you not practicing enough strength? Starting today, each person will practice five thousand times a day. You will supervise them."

Then he pointed to the rocks in the river and said: "There are a lot of empty rocks there. When you have nothing to do, take your brothers and sisters to show them the carving skills you have learned."

So this spring, Xiaoju and Tang Chao also followed a group of children all day long, carving on the river bank.

When Hua Luoyu had nothing to do, she carried her sword and guarded several young men and women practicing swordplay in the wind.

The shouts frightened the birds on Tianshan Mountain and confused the apes at the foot of the mountain stream and the wolves on the opposite hillside.

Tianshan Mountain is just a barren mountain with harsh waters, and beyond that is a land of ice and snow.

When will the whole valley be filled with flowers and a glacier be filled with laughter?

What Li Xiuyuan has to do is to work with Ouyang Dongli to open a field every day, plant different vegetables, and open an additional field for sowing spiritual rice.

In the end, even Tang Chao also came to dig the land. He looked at him and asked puzzledly: "Brother, these are sold at the foot of the mountain. Why bother to cultivate them yourself?"

Li Xiuyuan gently patted his shoulder and said, "Next year, you will go to the Imperial City to find Nalan Yu and help win the upcoming war."

For Li Xiuyuan, a big battle was just the right time for the Tang Dynasty couple to temper themselves.

If you don't use it if you have cultivated it, that's a real waste.

Whether it was Hu Ge or Tang Chao, when they went to the battlefield, their real purpose was just to take care of a few children in times of danger.

If there is someone who has transcended the Nine Tribulation Realms, we have no choice but to ask Brother Minghui to take action.

It seemed that Li Xiuyuan had no choice but to target the master and his mistress. Although they couldn't take action, they could hold the battle back.

When you are unable to defeat someone, you can send someone to ask for help from Brother Minghui.

After some thought, Li Xiuyuan no longer worried about the upcoming war. Today is different from the past, and the Five Domains Dynasty can do without the Imperial Master.

Spring passed and summer solstice came, and it was time for Li Xiuyuan to take the Yelv Pearl to look at the stars.

In the dead of night, the stars in the sky fell quietly on the master and apprentice.

Li Xiuyuan, whose hair was much grayer, was silently feeling the power of the starlight, but thinking about his disciple's future.

In the upcoming war, he didn't want Yelu Pearl to be missing, no matter whether she stayed in the Five Realms Starry Sky or followed the old monk to conquer the sea of ​​stars.

This is her war, and it is also the war of Yelu Royal Court.

Although the current Yelu Royal Court cannot compete with Feixian Island in the South China Sea, the presence of the army of the Five Regions Dynasty gave Yelu Pearl a chance to take revenge.

Looking at the stars, Li Xiuyuan finally brought up the woman he had never wanted to mention and the past events that had been forgotten in Yelu Mingzhu's memory.

It took a few nights for the girl to understand who she was, where she came from, and where she was going.

With the stars in the sky above her head, Yelu Mingzhu couldn't help but ask: "Master, have you also practiced the same power of starlight as Mingzhu?"

Li Xiuyuan did not answer her immediately, but looked at her and asked quietly: "You have been with the old monk for many days, which star did you finally realize?"

Yelu Mingzhu nodded and smiled, and replied: "The old monk said that Mingzhu's current strength is not enough, so we can only slowly practice while absorbing the power of starlight."

Li Xiuyuan looked at her and smiled proudly: "Master's original epee weighed only one hundred kilograms. Do you think it is too heavy to read?"

In his opinion, once Yelu Mingzhu masters the power of starlight one day and becomes a true star body, ordinary spiritual swords may no longer be able to withstand her power.

Seventy-seven kilograms is a spiritual sword tailor-made for Yelu Pearl by Li Xiuyuan.

Yelu Mingzhu squinted his eyes and smiled: "Mingzhu knows that even Brother Watson's sword is not as heavy as Mingzhu."

Li Xiuyuan sighed, looked at her and said leisurely: "Originally, this matter was a very troublesome thing for you..."

"It's just that if they dare to attack the Five Regions Dynasty, then there will be hundreds of thousands of troops behind you, including the entire dynasty, so you will no longer be alone."

"Master, what should Mingzhu do? How should she face that woman?"

The woman Yelu Mingzhu mentioned was naturally Duanmu Ruolan, the woman who abandoned her and took refuge in Feixian Island just to avenge herself.

"I don't know either... She is your mother after all. If you can let her go, let her go."

Li Xiuyuan was very confused at the moment. If he took action, he would kill Duanmu Ruolan with one sword to avenge Yeluqi.

But blood between Yelu Mingzhu and her is thicker than water. No matter what, he can't teach his disciples to kill their biological mother.

What he can do is teach Yelv Mingzhu more principles and leave her some magic symbols to save her life.

After thinking about it, Li Xiuyuan said softly: "You will practice here for another two years, and then follow Aunt Hua and Uncle to cross the Tianshan Mountains."

He had taken Xia Wutong and Nangong Ruyu on a time travel, and now he wanted these children to conquer this majestic mountain range and find their own opportunities.

Yelu Mingzhu was stunned, looked at him and asked, "Master, why don't you go together?"

Li Xiuyuan shook his head and said softly: "Master is old and can no longer walk. He has to complete his final practice here alone."

"Master's biggest regret is that he did not go to the grasslands of southern Xinjiang when your father was still alive. It seems that this matter can only be left to you."

Li Xiuyuan could clearly feel that he didn't have much time left. He didn't have to worry about food and clothing in Xinghua Valley right now, so he decided to spend the rest of his days here.

Yelu Mingzhu was startled, and she suddenly fell on Li Xiuyuan and started crying: "Master, please don't leave Mingzhu."

Li Xiuyuan touched her black hair and sighed softly: "I originally intended to return to the Five Realms and not accept any more disciples, but I had no choice but to meet you because you are Yeluqi's daughter..."

"Don't be afraid, I will let Uncle Xiao Hei stay with you. He will protect you before you grow into a towering tree."

After much deliberation, Li Xiuyuan could only ask Xiao Hei to follow a group of little guys as bodyguards.

"Uncle Xiaohei will tell you my affairs at the last minute. Even if you know about it, don't tell it. Do you understand?"

Li Xiuyuan couldn't bear Yelu Mingzhu to experience the pain of losing a loved one again, so he had to tell her something.

"Master, will we meet again?" Yelu Mingzhu thought for a while, looked at him and asked seriously.

Li Xiuyuan shook his head, pointed to the sky and said: "Firstly, I want to see God's will, and secondly, I want to ask your old monk, Master. He is even more powerful than Master."

"Maybe he came to this world just to take you away and embark on the road to the stars."

If we talk about who in the sky and on the earth can still practice the method of star body, Li Xiuyuan only knows three people, one is the teacher Meng Shentong from Xuanwu Continent, and the other is the old Taoist priest and the old monk.

He increasingly believed that the old monk in the small town was the old monk he met on the Shura battlefield, although he had always refused to admit it.

…

In the winter of this year, Yelu Mingzhu, who had the power of the stars, could finally chop off five snowflakes with one sword, and even Wang Ruyi could chop off two snowflakes with one sword.

In the meantime, Xiao Hei returned to Fengyun City several times and brought back wine-making supplies for Li Xiu Yuan, as well as a lot of clothes and shoes, all prepared by Xiao Hong and A Gui.

After discussing with Ouyang Dongli, Li Xiuyuan decided to wait until the spring came and the flowers bloomed, and then let him take a group of children through the Tianshan Mountains, and finally went to the Tianshan Sword Sect in the Beixuan Territory.

This is a journey of refining the soul, and Li Xiuyuan hopes they can find the temple.

This is also the reason why Ouyang Dongli is willing to give it a try, because even though he traveled around for several years, he still did not find the temple on the top of Tianshan Mountain.

Only Tang Chao and Xiaoju couldn't bear to part with Li Xiuyuan.

Tang Chao looked at Li Xiuyuan and asked: "Brother, I'm leaving. What will you do if you stay here alone?"

Li Xiuyuan smiled lightly and said: "You need to walk your own path. Everything I can give you has been given to you. I can only complete my path by myself."

Hu Ge knew some of Li Xiuyuan's secrets. He was with Xiao Hei every day, so he naturally understood that Li Xiuyuan would not die on Tianshan Mountain so easily.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but look at the two of them and said, "Fat man, you and your sister should think about how to break through the two realms on the Tianshan Mountains."

Tang Chao nodded and replied seriously: "That's right, there is going to be a war. We are all working hard to practice on Tianshan Mountain."

So, everyone watched the long night and waited for the first spring breeze on Tianshan Mountain.

Looking at the apricot flowers that were about to bloom all over the mountains and plains, Hua Luoyu took Li Xiuyuan's hand and said reluctantly: "I really can't bear to leave here!"

Li Xiuyuan waved his hand and said: "Master's wife must learn to read. If you want to transform into a mortal, you can't have too many thoughts in your heart."

When they parted, Li Xiuyuan looked at Watson and said with a smile: "Practice the Qingcheng Sword Technique well with your blacksmith master, and you won't be able to cut through the snow. This is the basic sword technique that will accompany you for the rest of your life."

Finally, she whispered in his ear, patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "After coming down the mountain, go to Master Minghui. He will teach you the method of the formless golden body."

Watson nodded heavily, held his hand and said, "Don't worry, godfather, I will protect my brothers and sisters."

Li Xiuyuan finally took Yelu Mingzhu's hand and gave her his mask.

He said calmly: "This is a gift from a senior Shenlong. Let it stay with you from now on and cover up some of your aura."

Yelu Mingzhu took his hand and said, "Master, don't worry. Once the chaos in southern Xinjiang is resolved, Mingzhu will come to Tianshan to find you."

Li Xiuyuan shook his head and murmured: "You don't have to look for me. Go find your old monk. He should know about my future affairs."

Looking at Wang Ruyi and Guisheng, Ergou and Xiaolian, Li Xiuyuan was filled with pride and laughed loudly: "How are you doing with your spiritual sword training?"

The four young men all replied: "Don't worry, godfather, it won't be long before you can change your spiritual sword to Zhanxue!"

Waving his hand, Li Xiuyuan said to Xiao Hei: "Xiao Hei, your last mission is to lead them to conquer southern Xinjiang!"

Xiao Hei lay on Yelu Mingzhu's shoulder and said with a smile: "Don't worry, brother, Xiao Hei will come to you after finishing the work!"

The spring breeze is like scissors, cutting off the tears from people, turning them into thousands of raindrops, nourishing the apricot blossoms in the mountains and blooming like snow.

Standing under the cedar tree on Yaping, Li Xiuyuan stood like a tree and watched everyone crossing the glacier, climbing up the opposite hillside, and gradually disappearing before his eyes.

It wasn't until no one could be seen anymore that Li Xiuyuan sighed softly and murmured:

All loving encounters are impermanent and hard to last.

There are many fears in this life, and life is in danger from the morning dew.
