Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation

Chapter 197 - 197 197: No Time to Waste

The reason Master Qingyue sent He Song back to the sect.

One of the reasons was also to provide Ping’er with resources for Foundation Establishment.

However, in the ten years since returning to the Thick Earth Sect, He Song completely forgot about Ping’er’s upcoming Foundation Establishment, only focusing on increasing his own strength.

Unexpectedly, when his ten-year term at the sect was coming to an end and he was about to be reassigned elsewhere, Ping’er learned the news and wanted to see him before leaving.

Looking at the beautiful handwriting on the paper, He Song hesitated for a moment and soon decided to accept the invitation.

Now.

After the Foundation Establishment, the ten-year period for quickly increasing combat power has expired.

The order for his reassignment could arrive any day.

It would not hurt to meet with Ping’er before leaving the sect.

After all, if the reassignment order really comes, the chances of He Song and Ping’er seeing each other would be greatly reduced.

After all, Ping’er could be considered a friend He Song met a long time ago.

Now that she had invited him, it would be difficult for He Song to refuse.

With a casual gesture, He Song took out a piece of thin paper and mana surged from the tips of his fingers, instantly carving out lines of text on the paper.

“Congratulations to Junior Sister Ping’er on successfully reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, and may your Immortal Path be unhindered from now on.”

“I have now left seclusion, and Ping’er dao friend is welcome to come to my cave mansion for a chat.”

“He Song.”

He put the paper into the Sound Transmission Amulet, and with a surge of mana, the paper inside the amulet disappeared immediately.

Seeing this,

He Song casually hung the Sound Transmission Amulet around his waist.

But soon after, He Song’s figure appeared in the tea room of his cave mansion.

As He Song continued his actions,

Wisps of tea fragrance soon filled the cave mansion.

Under swirls of tea aroma, He Song’s entire cave mansion was enveloped in a refreshing tea scent.

Since Ping’er was already in the Thick Earth Sect,

He Song informed her of the location of his cave mansion when he sent the message.

As a result, He Song didn’t have to wait long.

Only a moment later,

He Song saw tunneling light descending from the sky and landing outside his cave mansion.

He casually opened a passage in the Purple Cloud Heavenly Array and welcomed Ping’er into his cave mansion.

The two sat down in the tea room, one as host and the other as guest.

“Congratulations to Junior Sister for successfully reaching Foundation Establishment, may your Immortal Path be unhindered from now on.”

Upon meeting, He Song’s first words to Ping’er were still words of congratulations.

Although he had already congratulated her in the previous message, when he saw her face to face, He Song added another line of congratulations.

After all, more than nine years ago, He Song had already known that Ping’er was about to establish her foundation.

But after nine years, He Song had been immersed in his seclusive cultivation and had completely forgotten about Ping’er’s Foundation Establishment.

It was only when Ping’er informed him that she was approaching the ten-year mark that he learned of the matter.

Otherwise,

It might take He Song even longer to remember Ping’er’s Foundation Establishment.

In order to cover up the slight embarrassment in his heart, He Song didn’t use his usual greetings when he spoke.

“Thank you, Senior Brother, but this time, besides seeing Senior Brother, Ping’er also has a troubling matter.”

With her eyes shifting, Ping’er looked at He Song, taking a sip of tea.

Her vision brightened immediately, and she took another sip of tea.

But then, her face showed a trace of worry.

Seeing this,

He Song’s mind suddenly flashed with a hint of caution.

What troubles are bothering her?

Ping’er has already reached Foundation Establishment now.

He himself was just establishing Foundation as well.

Both at Foundation Establishment stage,

If it’s something Ping’er cannot handle,

Could he handle it?

With a bad feeling in his heart, He Song intended to directly refuse after thinking it over.

Otherwise, when Ping’er asked him later, and he refused, it would make him appear too reluctant to help.

However,

Before he could even speak,

Ping’er, with a worried expression on her face, spoke in a low voice,

“Ah, more than a decade ago, Shuangshuang Senior Sister failed to establish her foundation, and after recovering from her injuries, she went to the Mountain Immortal City.”

“Master has been worried about her over the years, but he knows Shuangshuang Senior Sister’s character. If he takes her back forcibly, she may leave again.”

“Master is well aware that this matter can’t be forced, so he entrusted it to me.”

As her gaze met He Song’s, Ping’er’s eyes flashed with an indescribable expression.

“Before Senior Sister Shuangshuang left, she wanted to see you, but you failed to establish your foundation and were in the process of healing, so she never saw you.”

“I wonder if Ping’er can ask Senior Brother for help to meet Shuangshuang Senior Sister together. If we can persuade her to return…”

“Ping’er will never forget Senior Brother’s great kindness.”

As Ping’er’s words continued, He Song’s plan to interrupt and directly refuse also quickly dissipated.

This matter.

There was no danger involved.

He didn’t need to refuse outright.

After all, he had once promised Chu Shuangshuang that once he left seclusion, whether or not he had established his foundation, he would visit her personally.

Now that he had successfully achieved the Foundation Establishment Realm and had the strength to do so, it was time to fulfill that promise.

Besides, apart from promising Chu Shuangshuang,

He Song had also promised Master Qingyue while returning to the Thick Earth Sect that if he saw Chu Shuangshuang, he would definitely help to persuade her.
