Madam Wei couldn’t take it anymore. It was as if someone was digging out her heart. She turned around and leaned on Mr. Liu’s shoulder, crying.
Tears welled up in Mr. Liu’s eyes and he could not say a word.
Liu Dalang gently pulled Tang An into his arms.
No one said anything, but the tears in their eyes said it all.
Chu Yan frowned and squeezed Liu Sanniang’s palm. “You’ll come back, right?”
The time was up. He did not dare to think about what would happen if he could not find her after returning.
Liu Sanniang nodded. “I’ll come back again. I’ve completed my mission. I naturally have to go where I need to go to become immortal, but I’ll still come back to visit my parents.”
Madam Wei looked at Liu Sanniang. “Can you not leave?”
Liu Sanniang could not answer. Mr. Liu comforted Madam Wei, “What nonsense are you talking about? Look at those who cultivate. Which one of them doesn’t want to become an immortal? Isn’t it good that Sanniang becomes immortal?”
Liu Erlang smiled with tears in his eyes. “Sanniang, after you become an immortal, do you still have to embroider your own clothes? Can you make clothes out of thin air?”
After saying that, Liu Erlang smiled.
Liu Sanniang smiled and held back the tears in her eyes. “I can make clothes out of thin air, but I can also embroider it myself.”
Liu Dalang took a wine glass. “I wish you all the best.”
That night, the family was all drunk.
At night, there were no cries. Liu Sanniang created a beautiful dream for them to soothe the pain in their hearts.
She was extremely weak. Chu Yan hugged her and she knew that he was not sleeping.
Liu Sanniang closed her eyes quietly and leaned against Chu Yan’s chest, listening to his strong heartbeat.
In August, Liu Sanniang lay on the bed, her face a little pale.
She was too weak to get out of bed.
Xia Hongming and the others received the news and came to visit.
Before seeing her, Xia Hongming did not believe that Liu Sanniang was about to die. However, when he saw Liu Sanniang lying weakly on the bed, he felt terrible. He walked to the bed and said, “Miss Liu, I’m here to see you.”
Liu Sanniang looked at Xia Hongming. Xia Hongming had a righteous aura. Liu Sanniang smiled and said, “You’ll be a good emperor. With you around, the country will prosper.”
Xia Hongming was very grateful. “Miss Liu, thank you. You’ve sacrificed too much for this world.”
Liu Sanniang smiled and did not speak.
Xia Hongming looked at Liu Sanniang and promised, “Miss Liu, as long as I’m still around, I’ll protect your family.”
Even if many people did not know what Liu Sanniang had done, as long as they looked at her, they would know that she was kind and benevolent.
Liu Sanniang smiled and said, “Thank you.”
Xia Hongming left.
Those who knew Liu Sanniang came to visit, but most of the time, Liu Sanniang was too weak to see them.
On the 10th of August, the Liu family stopped receiving visitors.
In a day, Liu Sanniang could only stay awake for two to four hours.
Liu Sanniang woke up and drank the nourishing soup. She said to Chu Yan, “Go and call Liu Yuanyuan and Hu Yu.”
Liu Yuanyuan and Hu Yu entered the room.
Hu Yu pouted. “Venerable, I can’t bear to part with you… I don’t know if I can cultivate well and ascend to immortality. If I can’t, we’ll never see each other again. If you see my mother, say sorry to her for me.”
Cultivation was hard, and transcending the tribulation was difficult. She might not be able to make it.
Liu Sanniang touched Hu Yu’s face and wiped the tears on her face. “You have a spiritual root. As long as you are focused, you can naturally succeed.”
Hu Yu looked at Liu Sanniang with tears in her eyes. “Really?”
Liu Sanniang nodded. Hu Yu smiled. “Then I’ll definitely be focused. When I become an immortal, I’ll come find you.”
Liu Sanniang nodded. “After I leave, you can return to the mountains to cultivate. Whether you stay or leave is up to you.”
Hu Yu nodded. “Venerable, thank you. We’ve all done a lot of good deeds during our stay with you. After you left, Liu Yuanyuan and I decided to continue to protect the Liu family. I’ll wait for your parents to grow old before returning to the mountains. In a few decades, Su Yanyu will also die of old age. At that time, Liu Yuanyuan will cultivate with me.”
Liu Sanniang nodded. “Good, don’t get too involved in the mortal world.”
Hu Yu and Liu Yuanyuan nodded in agreement.
Liu Sanniang looked at Liu Yuanyuan. Liu Yuanyuan was relatively calm, but Liu Sanniang knew that her emotions were all hidden in her heart. Liu Sanniang said, “When you’re with Su Yanyu, don’t forget your true intentions. If he has a change of heart, it’ll be the time to cut ties with him.”
Liu Yuanyuan nodded. “Venerable, don’t worry. I’ve already made an agreement with Young Marquis. If he wants to marry someone else, I’ll leave.”
Although she would be sad for a few days, she knew that when that time came, she would leave resolutely.
Just like her, Lin Jie was the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao. He had already learned most of what Liu Sanniang wanted to teach him. Next, what he had to learn was to communicate with the power of heaven and earth and understand the laws of heaven and earth.
The 15th of August was almost Liu Sanniang’s last day.
The moon in the sky was as round as a washbasin. Liu Sanniang leaned against the window and looked at the round moon. Lin Jie stood beside her and followed her gaze to look at the moon. “Shifu, the moon is so round.”
Liu Sanniang nodded. “Yes, it’s very round. There’s an osmanthus fragrance in the air. How nice.”
Lin Jie nodded. “Yes, it’s nice.”
“Jie, there are too many laws in this world waiting for you to protect them.”
Liu Sanniang smiled. “When I look at you, I feel like I saw myself back then. I was also so young.”
Lin Jie asked, “Did anyone teach you when you were young?”
Liu Sanniang nodded. “Of course. Before us, there were many Heavenly Dao incarnations.”
“Then where did they go?”
Lin Jie choked. When the next incarnation appeared, did it mean that the previous one would be gone?
Liu Sanniang reached out and touched Lin Jie’s head. She smiled and replied, “After completing their mission, they are naturally free and can go wherever they want. Don’t tell me you think they’re dead? That’s not true.”
The heaviness in Lin Jie’s heart was suddenly alleviated. He was a little happy and in disbelief. “Really…?”
Liu Sanniang nodded seriously..
