After being reborn, I took my childhood sweetheart to cultivate immortality.

Qingfeng City, Xu Family.

Xu Meifen sighed, looking out the door with a worried expression. Ever since she suddenly heard someone say that spiritual energy was reviving, this world had become more and more unfamiliar.

After that, her daughter, who was studying in another city, suddenly returned home, saying that she had become a cultivator and had taught her and her husband how to cultivate.

The couple has been unable to contact their daughter for almost a year. They don't know where she went or if she is safe.

"Old Xu, where exactly did our family member Manman go?"

"Hey! Meifen, don't overthink it. Our child is smart, she'll definitely be fine. Besides, Jinchen is with her."

Xu Jingheng is also very anxious. On one hand, he is worried about his daughter who has gone out. On the other hand, since everyone started to yearn for cultivating immortality, his car repair shop has almost no business left.

Everyone dreams of flying on swords, and few people work seriously anymore. Everyone tries their best to join a sect and learn immortal techniques.

This phenomenon is actually quite normal. The couple were so engrossed in their spiritual practice that they no longer wanted to pay attention to their business.

If their daughter hadn't repeatedly emphasized before leaving that they mustn't reveal anything about her cultivation before she returned, the couple might have already taken their son to search for traces of immortality.

However, he had to admit that his daughter was right. Just a few days ago, he heard from a former business friend that a while ago, more than a hundred people from Nanfeng City went to another place to search for some kind of secret realm, and in the end, less than one in ten returned.

It's said that the leader of that group was a master at the early stage of the Golden Core realm. If even someone like him didn't return alive, the chances of survival for us, mere Qi Refining Stage 3 nobodies, are even slimmer.

Thinking of all this, Xu Jingheng sighed, "Meifen, no matter what, let's focus on our cultivation first. Our son and parents still need our protection."

"Well, I listen to you."

The benefits of cultivation are numerous; at least my husband and I look younger and are in better physical condition than before. However, there are downsides as well. We are now eating more and more, while grains, vegetables, and meat are becoming increasingly expensive.

If I hadn't saved up a lot of money before, I would be struggling to make ends meet now.

The family next door is an example. If their third son hadn't been found to have spiritual roots and was now an outer disciple of some Tianshan Sect, they would have almost had to sell their house.

When the moon was high in the sky, the Xu family was completely silent, and the entire courtyard was shrouded in darkness.

At this moment, two shooting stars flew swiftly south from the depths of the sky and arrived at the Xu family courtyard in the blink of an eye.

The house was still the same as before, unchanged. Xu Qingman looked at everything so familiar, yet it felt like a lifetime had passed.

Yesterday they were in another world, the Lingchuan Continent, but now they have finally returned home.

Unfortunately, even though I arrived at my doorstep, I still had to wait until dawn to see my family.

She had just checked with her divine sense and found that her grandparents and younger brother were asleep, while her parents were cultivating. It was best not to wake them up, so as not to frighten them.

The two quietly opened the door and went inside, then silently entered Xu Qingman's room. The room had been empty for almost a year, yet it remained impeccably clean.

The two hadn't had a chance to rejuvenate with sleep in a long time, and seeing the comfortable bed, they couldn't help but lie down and sigh contentedly, "Home is the best place."

The two woke up the next day to a chorus of curses.

When they opened the door and went outside, they discovered that the shouting and cursing were coming from the Yu family.

Just as Xu Qingman was about to ask Yu Jinchen if she wanted to go and see, her grandparents, parents, and younger brother walked in from outside the door.

“Manman, my child, you’re finally back.” As Xu Meifen entered the house, she saw her daughter standing prettily in the yard, and she rushed over to hug her, crying.

"Slowly."

"elder sister."

The family surrounded Xu Qingman, laughing and crying, while Yu Jinchen was completely ignored by them.

"Grandpa, Grandma, Dad, Mom, Brother, I'm back! I missed you all so much!" Xu Qingman called out to everyone in turn, smiling through her tears.

Xu Qinghe snorted at her before saying, "You didn't miss us at all, otherwise why didn't you even come home for the New Year?"

Xu Qingman bent down to tease him, "Oh, our Gou Dan can speak so clearly now."

It's been almost a year since I last saw him, and the little guy has grown so much taller.

Xu Qinghe's face turned bright red, and she shouted angrily, "Bad sister, you're not allowed to call me Gou Dan, I have a name."

Hahaha…

The little guy bounced around like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, making everyone in the family burst into laughter.

It was only after Grandpa Xu told everyone to go inside first that his grandson was rescued.

After the family sat down, Xu Jingheng looked at his daughter, whom he hadn't seen for almost a year, with a serious expression and asked, "Manman, you haven't been back for so long, did something happen to you outside?"

"Dad, I'm fine. I'm sorry you were worried about me because I haven't been back for so long."

As soon as Xu Qingman finished speaking, Xu Meifen scolded, "You child, if you're alright, why didn't you even send a message back? And we couldn't even get through on the phone. Do you know how worried your family is about you?"

Xu Qingman looked at her family apologetically and replied, "Mom, it's not that I didn't want to call you, it's just that we're in a secret realm this time and can't contact the outside world."

Before going home, she discussed it with Yu Jinchen and decided not to tell their family about the other world, so as to avoid accidentally revealing it and bringing danger to their family.

"A secret realm? We've heard of that. So you two really found one? What's inside?"

Xu Jingheng stared wide-eyed at the two of them. Every man has a dream of becoming a fantasy hero, and he was no exception. If circumstances allowed, he too would have liked to go with others to search for secret realms.

Now that he knows his daughter and the others have been found, he's determined to find out the details and satisfy his curiosity.

Five pairs of eyes were staring straight at her. Xu Qingman wiped non-existent sweat from her forehead and began to recount her experience of gathering herbs and fighting monsters.

When the story got exciting, the family members got excited too; when it got scary, Xu Qing and her son shrank into Xu Jingheng's arms in fear.

"Sister, didn't you say you brought us delicious spiritual fruits? Where did you put them?" Hearing that there were delicious things, the little guy couldn't sit still and started jumping around the house looking for them.

"Sit still, watch your big sister do a magic trick for you." Xu Qingman pulled the little one over and made her sit down.

"Is it magic tricks? I want to see."

"Okay, watch carefully, and don't close your eyes."

After Xu Qingman finished speaking, she stretched out her empty right hand for them to see. Then, with a flick of her wrist, a plate of fresh, juicy fruit appeared on her right hand.

"Wow! It really is magic! Sister, can you teach me?" The little guy excitedly jumped into Xu Qingman's arms, looking at her expectantly.

"This isn't magic, it's divine magic, far more advanced than magic. But it's incredibly difficult to learn. Qinghe, would you like to learn?"

The little guy's eyes lit up. "Fairy magic? Is it the kind of magic that lets you fly through the clouds like in TV shows? I'm not afraid of hard work, I want to learn."

I wonder if learning this magic will make me as powerful as Sun Wukong, able to fly through the clouds and conjure up many little monkeys with a single hair.

Thinking of this, the little guy touched his head. Although he didn't have as much hair as Sun Wukong, he still had quite a bit.
