Ten Years

“Then let’s go home quickly, sister. Come up, I’ll carry you.”

Su Kuo transformed into his beast form and bent down in front of Su Xiaolu. He naturally recognized himself as Su Xiaolu’s younger brother. They were family and close friends. As a divine beast, he was proud and would not lower his head to anyone.

But as Su Xiaolu’s younger brother, he would not think so.

Su Xiaolu knew how to cultivate and would transmigrate with him in the future. They were the closest of family and friends.

!!

When he was young, Su Xiaolu often hugged him. She had never been impatient and protected him. Now that he had grown up, he would protect Su Xiaolu too.

Su Xiaolu climbed onto Su Kuo’s back and her vision changed.

Su Kuo said heartily, “Sister, sit tight.”

Su Kuo began to run, and the desert began to rapidly retreat.

This time, they traveled faster. In just a few days, they saw the village from afar. Su Kuo had also returned to his human form. Su Xiaolu released the horse in the Space.

The horse grew fat and strong in the Space. Su Xiaolu rode with Su Kuo and was nourished by spiritual energy. The horse also became extremely spiritual.

“This is nice.”

Su Kuo felt that it was very new. The perspective was different, and so was the feeling.

Su Xiaolu smiled. “There are many things to do in life as a human. Little Kuo, try them out slowly in the future.”

Su Kuo nodded.

The fog between the foreign lands was gone, this meant that the two worlds had completely fused.

What year was it now? Su Xiaolu couldn’t wait to know.

Before arriving at the town, Su Xiaolu looked at the familiar name, Canger Town.

She clearly felt that she had not been away for long, but many years had passed. Canger Town was several times bigger than before. From the outside, one could already see the prosperity inside.

The guard was an unfamiliar face. Su Xiaolu paid the entrance fee and entered the town with Su Kuo.

Beautiful men and women could always attract the attention of passersby.

Su Xiaolu went to the clothing shop first. Her clothes were short, but Su Kuo’s clothes came with his transformation. The black clothes fit him very well.

Su Xiaolu changed her clothes and brought Su Kuo to the inn to eat. Apart from beef, she ordered chickens, ducks, and fish.

Su Xiaolu reached out and touched Su Kuo’s clothes.

Su Kuo was puzzled. “What’s wrong, sister?”

Su Xiaolu asked curiously, “Little Kuo, are your clothes natural? What are they made of?”

Su Kuo smiled, revealing his cute canine teeth, and said, “Sister, my clothes are made of my fur. If you like to touch them, I’ll let you touch them, just like before.”

Su Xiaolu liked to touch his fur. Of course, he knew that his fur was smooth and comfortable. After turning into a human, it would definitely not be nice to touch.

But as long as his sister liked to touch it, she could touch it.

Su Xiaolu smiled and shook her head. “Little Kuo, after you turn into a human, you have to understand some etiquette and common sense in the future. As a human, you have to understand other humans. It’s helpful for you to know some things.”

Su Kuo pondered. He thought about the inherited memories. It was very difficult for Guardian Beasts to repair the bitwall because they needed the help of people. Many of them, who had agreed well, suddenly changed their minds.

Now that he heard Su Xiaolu’s words, Su Kuo felt that it made sense. In the past, his ancestors had suffered losses because they did not understand people. If he understood people, it would be much more convenient for him to do work in the future.

Su Kuo revealed his canine teeth and smiled. “Sister, teach me.”

Su Xiaolu nodded. Of course she was willing. She treated Su Kuo as family.

After a good meal, Su Xiaolu brought Su Kuo out to gather information.

Su Xiaolu stopped a passerby and paid some money to find out everything she wanted to know.

It turned out that ten years had passed since she entered the foreign land. These ten years could be said to have turned the world upside down.

Due to the fusion of the foreign land, the world’s spiritual energy was abundant. Demonic beasts began to appear everywhere, and there were also demons that had developed intelligence and became spirits.

There were good and bad demons and beasts.

Many capable people of the Great Zhou Dynasty had opened sects.

There were a total of ten great sects.

The Buddhist Sect’s Cloud Breaking Sect used to be Hongyue Monastery. They were the most powerful in slaying demons and fiends.

The Daoist Tian Zhen Sect.

The Wu Xing Sect specialized in Gu, the Wan Jian Sect specialized in swords, and so on.

These sects had all chosen the foreign land where spiritual energy lingered.

They would take in a wide range of disciples to strengthen the sect. The disciples would benefit the people and protect their safety.

Su Xiaolu was amazed at how much had changed, but she also felt that this change was good. The world was changing, and so were people.

Back at the inn.

Su Kuo said to Su Xiaolu, “What are you thinking about?”

Su Xiaolu sighed. “Things have changed so much in ten years. I haven’t seen Father, Mother, Brother, and Sister in eleven years. I’m actually 25 years old now. Little Xing and Little Shi have all grown up. I wonder if they’re married. Little Shiyu, Weiwei, and Xuanxuan are already 11 years old. If I go home now, they probably won’t recognize me.”

“I wonder how Master and the others are doing, as well as my Junior Brother.”

No one had expected that they would not see each other for eleven years after that separation.

Would they miss her after such a long time? Would they worry about her? Su Xiaolu had mixed feelings.

Now that the world had changed, would they think that she was dead? Would her parents think too much?

Finally, there was Zhou Zhi. How was he? Everything disturbed Su Xiaolu’s thoughts.

...

Su Kuo smiled and said, “Sister, I think they’re all waiting for you to come home. Have you forgotten what abilities Brother Xiao Niu has? He must know that you’re still alive.”

Su Kuo felt that Su Xiaolu was feeling confused after receiving so much news at once.

That was indeed the case, but with Su Kuo’s reminder, Su Xiaolu immediately had an epiphany.

She smiled. “That’s right. I forgot. Although Father and Mother can’t find me, they must know that I’m fine. Then let’s go home slowly. I can teach you on the way too.”

Su Xiaolu calmed down. She looked at Su Kuo seriously and asked, “Little Kuo, let me ask you, how do you think I got the information so quickly just now?”

Su Kuo revealed his cute canine teeth. “I know, because you gave him money.”

Su Xiaolu asked again, “What if I don’t have money? Can I still find out more?”

Su Kuo pondered. “No.”

He thought for a moment, then corrected himself. “Even if you can, it’ll be difficult. Not easy, anyway.”

Su Xiaolu nodded. “That’s right. Then do you know why it’s easy when I pay money?”

“Because people like money. Money buys things. Everyone lives on money.”

...

Su Kuo replied with a smile, thinking that this was too easy. He had not inherited so many achievements from his ancestors for nothing. His sister had underestimated him.

“Then, Little Kuo, what do you call such actions?”

Su Xiaolu looked at Su Kuo’s smug expression and felt that he was very cute. Su Kuo did not hide his emotions. From his emotions, she knew that he was the easiest to deceive.

Su Kuo pursed his lips and pondered. He felt that Su Xiaolu’s words were not that simple, but he could not understand what else was there. Therefore, he simply stopped thinking about it. He looked at Su Xiaolu sincerely and said, “You’re just paying money, what else can it be called? Sister, teach me.”
