Chapter 1035: Chapter 366: The Way of Insect Control, Fourth Elder’s Joyous Bereavement!_3

The Fourth Elder slightly turned his head to look at the younger generation beside him, his voice louder by a few degrees, feeble and exhausted, he said, “I miss Changsheng and Yun’er… I want to see Changsheng and Yun’er…”

Lu Xuanya, upon hearing the words of her great-grandmother, immediately understood that she was referring to her own grandfather and grandmother.

Her grandfather usually stayed indoors and only occasionally ventured out to visit Qingzhu Mountain.

As for her grandmother, for some reason, she had not come to Qingzhu Mountain for almost twenty years.

If it were not for the enduring good relations between the two families, she would have suspected that her grandmother had some dispute with Qingzhu Mountain, which was why she never came.

She was just about to say that her grandparents and the others were not at Qingzhu Mountain and it might take some days before they could come.

But seeing the Fourth Elder’s withered and gaunt face flushing slightly, her cloudy and dim eyes brightened a bit, as if imploringly gazing at her, her heart abruptly missed a beat.

Her father Lu Yun had told her and her siblings to frequently visit Qingzhu Mountain to keep their ancestor company, having informed them that the Fourth Elder had not much time left.

Now, seeing the ancestor in such a state, she immediately thought of the phenomenon known as rallying before death.

“Ancestor, please wait, I will go right away to inform Grandfather and Grandmother to come.”

The girl’s heart quivered, her eyes reddened, and she spoke with pursed lips.

Then, she hastily conveyed the message to Lu Yuanding and others at Qingzhu Mountain, and sent a message to her father.

…

Bi Lake Mountain.

Lu Changsheng was engaged in alchemy when his son Lu Yun came to report.

A message had arrived from Qingzhu Mountain, the Fourth Elder’s light was nearly out, the end was near.

“Has your mother received the message…?”

Lu Changsheng, after a moment of silence, asked.

Birth, aging, illness, and death are the norm in life.

He had consistently visited the Fourth Elder on Qingzhu Mountain over the years.

He could clearly see that her lifespan was coming to an end.

Now, the day had inevitably come.

“I haven’t informed Mother yet…”

Lu Yun said, his face heavy with sorrow.

He knew his mother could not leave Bi Lake Mountain because of the cultivation technique she practiced.

If his grandmother were to learn of her own great-grandmother’s impending death and be unable to visit her for the last time, her heart would surely be overcome with grief.

“I’ll go ahead.”

Lu Changsheng took a deep breath and said.

He prepared to rush to Qingzhu Mountain to see the Fourth Elder for the last time and bring her to Bi Lake Mountain.

His wife Lu Miaoyun was raised by the Fourth Elder from a young age, and they shared a deep bond.

If she could not even see the elder for one last time, there would be an indelible pain and bitterness in her heart, and it might even lead to the emergence of a heart demon.

“Yes, Father.”

Lu Yun understood his father’s intent.

The next moment, he saw his father step directly out of the alchemy chamber, then transform into an escape light and leave Bi Lake Mountain.

“Sigh.”

Lu Yun watched his father’s departing figure, heaving a deep sigh, his heart filled with an inexplicable bitterness.

Cultivation, in the end, nobody can escape the pain of parting by life and death.

“The stronger the cultivator, the more they must endure and face.”

“But I suppose, in the future, I will likely go ahead of my parents…”

Lu Yun gazed at the azure sky, feeling a wave of sadness.

The life of a cultivator is not only about facing countless life-and-death battles but also about enduring the partings and deaths of loved ones and friends.

It is for this very reason, as cultivators grow older, their demeanor often becomes more detached.

It is not because they are naturally indifferent.

It’s because they have experienced too much.

…

An hour later.

Lu Changsheng arrived at Qingzhu Mountain, riding on the Starlight Plate.

“Uncle, Grandfather!”

At this time, quite a few people were already waiting at the mountain gate.

Upon seeing Lu Changsheng, they stepped forward and respectfully paid their respects.

“Um.”

Lu Changsheng did not engage in much small talk with them, simply acknowledging their greeting before going straight to Qingzhu Valley, to the Fourth Elder’s courtyard.

“Changsheng, uncle.”

“Changsheng, you’ve come.”

Lu Yuanding and others were somewhat surprised by his speed when they saw Lu Changsheng had hurried over.

At this time, Lu Miaoge had also rushed over from Red Leaf Valley Marketplace, and was using Taiyi True Water to nourish the Fourth Elder’s physical body.

But at this moment, the Fourth Elder’s visage was gaunt, her body not only exuded an atmosphere of deep twilight but also a dense aura of death.

This was the end of her lifespan, unless there was a top-tier treasure capable of prolonging life, there was no reversing her fate.

“Changsheng…”

The Fourth Elder, seeing the young man who resembled an orchid and pine inside, her cloudy eyes gleaming faintly, said with a hoarse and aged voice, tremblingly stretching forth her withered arm.

“Grandmother, I’m here.”

Lu Changsheng’s heart felt heavy as he stepped forward to take the Fourth Elder’s hand.

Even though he had long known of this day, this moment, and had been mentally prepared,

The sight of the old lady on her deathbed still caused an unspeakable sadness in his heart.

“Changsheng, don’t be sad, Grandmother is content and happy to have lived to see you and Miaoyun, to see the family like this…”

The Fourth Elder, her eyes cloudy, her mouth opening and closing, kept saying, “You and Miaoyun, Miaoge, must take good care of yourselves… It’s a pity Grandmother won’t see the day you both become great cultivators… Little Yun has a sincere nature, you as a father must take good care of him…”

“If Qingzhu Mountain ever encounters trouble in the future, if you… can help, then do lend them a hand…”

Although she lived only to be one hundred and twenty-four years old,

by that age, she had already experienced many, many things.

She not only witnessed the rise and fall of her family but also watched her children, family elders, and peers of her age pass away one by one.

Now, in all of Qingzhu Mountain, there was no longer anyone of her generation left.

Hence, the only concerns and attachments left in her heart were for Lu Changsheng, Lu Miaoyun, and the family that had raised and cared for her.

“Grandmother, rest assured, I will certainly take good care of Miaoyun, Sister Miaoge, and Little Yun.”

“As long as I, Lu Changsheng, am alive, Qingzhu Mountain will always stand!”
