The Tao is far away

Chapter 56: End of the Mortal World

Wang Chi gently took out a bottle of pills from his arms. The pills contained a faint medicinal fragrance that was refreshing.

He handed it to Wang Buyan and said calmly, "This was left by your father. Today it is returned to its original owner."

Wang Buyan opened the porcelain lid and saw that the pills inside were emitting a gentle light, and each one was as crystal clear as a pearl.

"This pill can delay aging and maintain youth." Wang Chi explained.

Although this elixir is not as good as the legendary elixir that can make you forever youthful, it is still a rare elixir.

However, Wang Buyan's reaction was beyond Wang Chi's expectations. She said coldly: "I don't need this thing!"

Wang Chi sighed inwardly. He had long known that Wang Buyan had a grudge against her father, because that biological father had never fulfilled his responsibilities as a father and abandoned her at her uncle's house since she was a child. He had never even met her, causing her to lose the fatherly love that she should have had.

Although Wang Buyan was raised by Wang Heng, the lack of fatherly love in her heart is a void that cannot be filled by any material thing.

Wang Chi said no more and instead summoned a green light from his storage bag. After the light faded, a strange rectangular object appeared in his hand.

This scene made Wang Buyan, who was seeing the methods of an immortal cultivator for the first time, look slightly shocked.

Although Carpenter Wang mentioned Wang Chi and his identity as a cultivator in the letter.

As Wang Chi's spiritual energy poured into the rectangular box, the surface of the box began to glow.

As Wang Chi's spiritual energy slowly flowed into the rectangular box, the surface of the box began to emit a soft light, as if it was given life.

This inconspicuous box is actually Wang Chi’s mobile phone. Although there are cracks on the screen, it can still work normally.

Ever since Wang Chi entered the Qi Refining Stage, he unexpectedly discovered that spiritual energy could be used as a substitute for electricity to provide energy for mobile phones.

This discovery made him quite excited.

Now, whenever his mobile phone is low on battery, he can easily charge it by just circulating a little spiritual energy. It is simple and efficient.

However, since there is no modern network coverage here, even if the mobile phone can be turned on, Wang Chi rarely takes it out to use it.

After all, in this world, mobile phones don't have many practical uses other than taking photos and recording videos.

Wang Buyan took the glowing rectangular box from Wang Chi with confusion, her curiosity was aroused.

Wang Chi didn't say much, he just opened the pre-recorded video on his mobile phone and handed it to Wang Buyan.

The video started playing, and Wang Buyan saw a figure appear on the screen. That person was Carpenter Wang, who was concentrating on carving something with a knife.

Although the picture is simple, it reveals a sense of simplicity and authenticity. This is the scene that Wang Chi secretly recorded before.

As the video played, Wang Chi began to slowly tell Wang Buyan every little detail about Carpenter Wang.

He tells the story of how Carpenter Wang went out alone to seek revenge, how the master and apprentice met, got to know each other, and taught each other skills, as well as all the sadness and pain he experienced in the last stage of his life.

Wang Buyan was attracted by the video and was deeply moved by Wang Chi's words. She looked at the old figure in the video, listened to those unfamiliar stories, and finally burst into tears.

She found that her father was so old, like an old man who was about to die.

She finally understood that her father was carrying such a heavy past.

He once embarked on the path of monasticism alone, sought revenge on his enemies alone, watched his son struggle in childbirth alone, and witnessed his loved one disappear before his eyes.

He endured all the pain and despair silently until he was completely desperate, leaving only an empty shell, and eventually died alone in a remote mountain area.

Perhaps Wang Chi's appearance had given him a glimmer of long-lost hope, but after experiencing too many setbacks and hardships in life, his heart had long been dead and he could no longer bear any more emotional fluctuations.

Wang Buyan's heart was deeply touched, her body went limp, tears silently rolled down her cheeks, unable to hide the sadness in her heart, she burst into tears.

Wang Chi was also touched, and patted Wang Buyan on the shoulder, saying, "Cry, it will be better if you cry!"

Wang Chi knew that although Wang Buyan looked strong, she was extremely fragile inside.

"I'm not telling you this to make you sad."

"I just want to tell you that your father loves you."

A boy who has been deprived of father's love for a long time, although he grew up in a wealthy family, is still lonely.

A traveler from another world, although he had made some success in cultivation, he left his most important relatives and became a lonely wanderer in this foreign world.

The snow fell silently outside the window, as if adding a bit of desolation to this moment. The two lonely souls resonated at this moment.

Wang Chi walked out of the small building slowly with mixed feelings. He signaled to a maid to go in and take care of the emotional Wang Buyan.

He himself stood there, staring at the sky, seemingly in deep thought.

No one knows the thoughts in his mind, one can only get a glimpse of them from his solemn eyes.

Afterwards, Wang Chi returned to his small building and found Xue Lian had settled down in another room.

At this moment, a whimpering sound broke the silence of the room. It turned out that Zi Yue was making the sound of hunger.

After feeding Zi Yue, Wang Chi discovered that this little pet seemed to particularly like staying in the clothes on his chest.

Whenever Zi Yue felt sleepy and wanted to sleep, it would try to crawl into Wang Chi's clothes to find a warm sleeping nest.

Wang Chi could only smile bitterly at this situation, but fortunately, winter clothes were relatively thick, and the palm-sized Zi Yue curled up inside, so no trace would be revealed from the outside.

Although Wang Heng already knew Wang Chi's true identity, in order to avoid unnecessary attention and trouble, Wang Chi still felt that he should be cautious.

After all, this place is close to the Mulan Mountains, and there are immortal cultivators hiding in the city.

At this moment, a burst of rapid shouting suddenly came from the front hall, breaking the silence in the small building.

Wang Chi's heart moved and he thought he should go and see what was going on.

He came to the front hall and the scene before him made him frown.

A man was lying on the ground, covered in blood, looking extremely miserable.

This person was none other than Wang Heng’s second brother, and also his nominal uncle in this world, Wang Ye.

It turned out that Wang Ye, the boss of an escort agency, was ambushed by another escort agency while escorting the goods. He was seriously injured and was dying.

Wang Heng and other family members stood around, anxious as ants on a hot pan, at a loss as to what to do.

When Wang Heng saw Wang Chi coming, he looked happy as if he had seen a savior.

He knew that this young nephew was no ordinary person and perhaps he could help save Wang Ye.

"My dear nephew..." Wang Heng said anxiously.

Wang Chi nodded, took out a pill from his sleeve and handed it to Wang Heng.

Wang Heng hurriedly took the pill and quickly and carefully put it into Wang Ye's mouth.

Everyone held their breath, waiting for a miracle to happen.

As the pill took his body, Wang Ye's body immediately reacted violently.

The powerful medicinal effect contained in the pill was like a hot current that quickly spread throughout his body, causing his blood to surge and bursts of steaming heat to begin to emanate from the wound.

He struggled in pain, his muscles tensed, and a faint red light could even be seen on his skin.

The family members around held their breath and watched the scene nervously, feeling both anticipation and fear in their hearts.

Wang Heng clenched his hands, his eyes filled with anxiety and hope.

After a while, Wang Ye suddenly shouted, and his whole body seemed to be injected with life again. His eyes suddenly opened and his focus gradually came into focus.

Wang Heng took a step forward excitedly, tightly grasped Wang Ye's hand, looked at Wang Chi gratefully with tears in his eyes, and murmured: "My dear nephew, you saved my second brother's life. Our whole family is grateful to you."

Wang Chi did not want to acknowledge this "relative" anymore, and instead secretly sent a message to Wang Heng: "Uncle, now that I have acknowledged my ancestors and returned to my roots, my wish in this world has been fulfilled, and I am going to pursue my own path!"

Although Wang Heng was secretly amazed at the sound transmission technique, he was shocked to hear that Wang Chi was leaving. Just as he was about to say something, he was interrupted by Wang Chi's secret spell.

Wang Heng sighed slightly. He actually knew that Wang Chi was definitely not his third brother's son, but thinking of his identity as an immortal cultivator, if he could stay in the Wang family, the Wang family would surely prosper.

Therefore, he also gave Wang Chi two shy maids in an attempt to win over Wang Chi.

Wang Heng had no choice but to give up and nodded to Wang Chi.

Wang Chi quietly left the front hall, but Wang Buyan, who was standing nearby, noticed Wang Chi.
