Reincarnation Girl Becomes Immortal

Chonghai and Jingtian were separated by a vast distance of half a void, and even for her, it would take several months to cross that distance in the void.

In the transit space, it only takes a turn around a corner and a dozen steps forward to reach the Chonghai Realm teleportation gate.

The moment you step through the portal, space begins to shift and transform.

Not long after, she arrived again at a stream at the foot of Yaowang Mountain.

To the side, birds chirped incessantly in the woods, and the wind rustled through the leaves.

Xi Heng once ate hot pot alone here. It looked familiar, so he casually set up a spatial node here.

Upon arrival, a surge of prayers immediately arose, and the sounds of prayers from all over the world filled my ears and mind.

Through these means, Xi Heng quickly learned that the Great Zhao Kingdom had been completely taken over by the Pure Fire Sect.

Although the royal family still bears the surname Zhao, the name of the country has been changed to 'Huangxiao'.

However, the current emperor is still Zhao Chuxiao.

Xi Heng learned the news from the prayers of the vows—it was Zhao Chuxiao and Chen Fenghuo who together overthrew the original Great Zhao, beheaded the incompetent emperor, and established a new dynasty.

At the beginning of the founding of the country, everything was renewed. All kinds of bad policies were replaced by new ones. The Pure Fire Sect and the imperial government jointly governed the country. Whether in the capital or in the prefectures, everything was changing day by day.

I closed my eyes for a few seconds to receive the news about state affairs.

Xi Heng came to his senses and said to the woman beside him:

"It seems the country's environment is pretty good right now. Where should we stay?"

Where did you live before?

"It's just a small mountain village nearby, but I also lived in Jiangning City, which is next to the capital, with my senior sister who taught me martial arts. I also lived in the capital for a long time... If I had to say, the longest I stayed was definitely in the capital," Xi Heng said.

"Then let's go to the capital." Although Yin Wanluan was also somewhat bothered by the title 'Senior Sister,' she did not change the subject because of it.

"it is good."

The white-haired girl then tore open a spatial rift leading directly to the capital city before her eyes.

Holding Yin Wanluan's hand, this time she was unable to directly lead him inside.

"Hmm?" She tilted her head.

"Go on," the other said, only to continue, "With our celestial appearances, we couldn't possibly live ordinary lives anywhere, could we? Perhaps it would be better to revert to our ordinary appearances before we began cultivating?"

“Indeed.” Xi Heng waved his hand to gather the spiritual energy emanating from his body, concealing his Dao Integration aura.

During this time, her hair and eyes returned to their former brownish-gray color, and her clothes changed to simple white garments amidst the fluctuations.

Her appearance was no longer as captivating as it once was, though her features remained the same. The subtle details that once held a captivating allure had slowly faded away with the flow of light.

During the process, Yin Wanluan also changed her clothes. The spiritual light disappeared, and although she was still stunning, she was no longer an otherworldly fairy-like beauty.

Having given up, she grabbed Xi Heng's entire arm and pulled him into her embrace.

"Let's go." Her voice, for some reason, had become a little sweeter.

"Ah."

Stepping into the spatial rift, they instantly arrived inside the capital city, in the wide streets with thick outer city walls.

Carriages and horses traveled on the main streets, and pedestrians flowed from both sides. The buildings on both sides were lined up one after another, and the signs and flags of teahouses, taverns, foot inns and butcher shops fluttered in the wind.

In the blink of an eye, the scene changed from the countryside to this bustling capital city.

Various sounds arose all around: vendors hawking their wares, merchants conversing, gentry waving folding fans, and minor officials riding swiftly on horseback.

Influenced by this familiar atmosphere, Xi Heng seemed to have truly become one of the ordinary people.

She only came to her senses when Yin Wanluan tugged at her hand.

Turning her head, she saw the other party smiling and saying, "In our ordinary life together, unless it's something important, please try not to use magic."

"Do we need to make more rules?" Xi Heng pouted.

“Of course, even if it’s just acting, you have to act convincingly.” Yin Wanluan held up one finger.

"It's alright, my martial arts level is quite high too."

"After that, I'll leave it to you to protect me." The other person said with a smile, and then talked about her future plans: "I want to open a clothing shop in this city to support you."

"Okay."

"However, the gold and silver treasures currently used in the mortal world are insufficient. Do you have any?"

"Yes, yes." In addition to gold and silver, Xi Heng's inventory also contained many precious jewels.

You can exchange your money for a huge sum at any pawnshop.

"We don't need too much; just enough for our shop needs at once."

"Don't you want to be rich?" The white-haired girl tilted her head.

“Once I have made some clothing designs, I will naturally be wealthy, so there is no need to spend too much money at the beginning,” Yin Wanluan stated.

"That's it."

She thought to herself—Yin Wanluan wanted to make clothes, so what kind of profession should she choose?

I can't keep being a herb gatherer or a pharmacy counter worker... or a pharmacy owner, can I?

It seems that it really works...

"Then I'll open a small clinic here and become a doctor."

……

Volume 1: Chapter 415, Reunion with an Old Acquaintance

Returning to the mortal realm, they run a clothing and accessories business, without using magic, simply helping ordinary people live their lives—a rule casually agreed upon as if playing house, which they executed quite perfectly.

Xi Heng seemed to have truly focused all his attention on this mortal realm.

Upon arriving in the capital, he began taking Yin Wanluan on a journey around.

First, he went to a roadside pawnshop to exchange his money for enough to open a shop. Then, he found a familiar inn and ordered some food and drinks. After that, he went to the familiar Qin Xie Lane and found a broker in a street-facing shop to buy property.

Because Qin Xie Lane is a relatively prosperous area in the city, the property prices there are extremely high.

The gold and silver that Xi Heng had exchanged for many precious jewels were not even enough to buy a shop in a good location. He was planning to go to the pawnshop to exchange some more, but Yin Wanluan stopped him.

And with a slight smile, he said:

"Let's just do things in the most natural way on this trip, without deliberately pursuing anything... Since we can't buy the best shops, let's just find a medium-sized one."

"Of course..."

Xi Heng realized that Yin Wanluan seemed to be approaching this ordinary life with the mindset of cultivation.

So he nodded in agreement with what the other person said, and found and bought a shop at the end of the long alley that was neither good nor bad.

Over the next three days, the two of them worked together, slowly and methodically setting up their small shop.

They also purchased various silks, silk fabrics, weaving and sewing tools, and other items from outside.

A few days later, after gathering all the necessary items, Yin Wanluan began producing the goods in the rear.

Meanwhile, Xi Heng continued to renovate the store, both inside and out, and purchased wide wooden plaques to paint and carve himself.

Before long, the three characters 'Yuyi Pavilion' were hung on the doorplate.

She also wrote a shop notice, announcing when the shop would open and what kind of clothing it would specialize in. Below, she meticulously drew several clothing style pictures provided by Yin Wanluan using fine brushwork.

Because the clothes were so beautiful and the descriptions were so exquisite, even though the shop wasn't in a particularly good location, people would often gather outside to chat.

Furthermore, the elegant and graceful calligraphy of the notices, which paradoxically conveyed a sense of refined elegance, often attracted scholars and gentry to stop and admire them.

The plaque above is full of charm in every stroke, but unfortunately it only has three simple characters written on it.

Even though Yuyi Pavilion has not yet opened for business, rumors have already spread among the people in the alley.

Half a month later, after Xi Heng finished decorating the entire shop, he would casually make wooden mannequins in his spare time to show how clothes looked when worn.

Although she could simply use magic to make the soil grow the wooden figure she wanted.

However, the two had agreed not to use any magic or spells.

Xi Heng only used meticulous craftsmanship to slowly shape it.

She always felt a strange sense of relaxation when doing these ordinary things.

It was as if matters of realm, advancement, and tribulation had all become distant memories for her.

Returning to nature and doing things by hand may seem like a return to the mundane, but it actually elevates one's inner state of mind.

“Perhaps what the cultivation books say is true…” She thought to herself from time to time: “Leaving cultivation and stepping into the mortal world for a while can actually help with future cultivation.”

chap——

The wood carving knife sliced ​​across the surface of the wooden doll, shaving off small pieces of wood.

The file passes over it, wiping and smoothing the surface.

She carefully examined the joints of the puppet and, following the puppet-making method, made it movable.

Time passed leisurely in such ordinary moments, changing from deep winter to deep spring.

March passed, and the two of them cleaned and renovated the storefront together. They hung up the newly made clothes and silks inside the shop, and dressed the wooden dolls in their poses in exquisite feathered robes.

Each piece of clothing was handmade by Yin Wanluan, and they were all exquisitely crafted with numerous details.

The elegant dresses are mostly in light pink, moon white, and smoky green, giving them a delicate and graceful, simple and elegant look.

A few other dresses are more elaborate, mainly in red and purple, with floral and bird patterns and cloud patterns. Every stitch is exquisite, with pearls shimmering at the neckline and lace trim on the cuffs. Anyone who wears them will exude a noble air.

However, compared to the two garments with profound spiritual techniques that Yin Wanluan had given to Xi Heng, this was a far cry from the two garments that Yin Wanluan had given to Xi Heng.

These things were still within the realm of the mundane, and did not hold much appeal for Xi Heng.

All the clothes were neatly arranged, and at the pre-arranged time, the store finally opened.

Several young ladies and famous women from Qin Xie Lane were already waiting outside the door, accompanied by a few maids.

Xi Heng gave a brief welcome and led them inside before giving a more formal explanation.

Because the clothes in the pavilion are unique in style and are generally quite beautiful, guests intend to buy a few items as soon as they enter. However, they hesitate among the gorgeous clothes, picking and choosing here and there, and time easily slips away.

From opening at noon until closing at sunset, nearly half of the inventory was sold out.

If Yuyi Pavilion hadn't priced its products higher and hadn't had some orders that required customization, it probably would have sold out on the first day of opening.

However, this is also partly due to the fact that there wasn't much stock to begin with.

In short, the first day of opening the store was a great success.

"So much silver..." Yin Wanluan held the silver notes she had earned that day and began counting the money.

"Don't get too greedy," the girl teased from the side.

"If you can achieve this level of sales every time you open a store, it won't be long before I can help you buy a clinic," the other person said with a light laugh.

"No, there aren't an unlimited number of young ladies and courtesans in the capital. Others can't afford such expensive clothes... The first opening will attract many customers, but once everyone has bought this style, there will be fewer and fewer customers," Xi Heng explained briefly.

"It's definitely enough to support you," Yin Wanluan said, still smiling.

"Opening a clinic is something we can take our time with," Xi Heng said nonchalantly. "I'm your business assistant now."

It doesn't matter whether you open a clinic sooner or later.

After all, she herself would not suffer any loss; rather, it would be a loss for the people of the capital if she were not here as a doctor.

"Hmm, we just made so much money, let's go out and get something to eat together?" Yin Wanluan said.

"Okay, okay." Xi Heng was also infected by it.

She hadn't seen the other person so naturally happy in a long time.

It seems the same is true on my side.

……

The two spent their days together doing ordinary, mundane things, letting the days and nights cycle by.

He rises with the sun and rests with the sunset, and Xi Heng has rediscovered the daily sleep habit he had when he was a mortal, no longer replacing it with simple meditation.

As the days went by, some of my obsessions gradually subsided.

A month after opening the shop, one night before going to sleep, Xi Heng closed his eyes and meditated.
