Yuan Realm, Yuan City.
Li Xuan glanced at the vast palace, then walked into the main hall with Shan Wuxie.
"Li Xuan, where is Xiao Bai now?" Shan Wuxie waved his hand, setting up a barrier, and then directly asked.
Hearing this, Li Xuan smiled. With a thought, he brought Xiao Bai out of Zhenyu.
"Big brother, why did you bring me out?" Xiao Bai was playing with Qinglong when Li Xuan brought her out. Xiao Bai looked around, and as soon as she saw Shan Wuxie, tears began to stream down her face.
"Grandpa!" Xiao Bai directly rushed into Shan Wuxie's arms and cried out.
Shan Wuxie's eyes were also filled with tears. He gently patted Xiao Bai's back and said with great affection, "I didn't expect to see you again in this lifetime. Well done, well done. This little one has not let me down."
Li Xuan smiled, then took out some spiritual wine and drank it himself. He saw no need to involve himself in Xiao Bai's reunion with Shan Wuxie. After all, the bond between Xiao Bai and Shan Wuxie was much deeper than his own.
A moment later, Shan Wuxie and Xiao Bai sat down.
"Li Xuan, you've been hiding quite a bit. I didn't expect you to be the young master of Xingyao Merchant Guild," Shan Wuxie said with a smile.
Li Xuan smiled and replied, "I didn't expect Xingyao Merchant Guild to exist in this four-dimensional space either. But all of this belongs to my parents, not me. Elder Shan, tell me about yourself. How did you resolve those troubles after leaving the three-dimensional space?"
Shan Wuxie gave a wry smile and said, "It wasn't me who resolved them, but a young man. Speaking of which, that young man was around your age. But his strength was unmatched by anyone I've ever seen. Those four couldn't defeat him even when they teamed up."
"So strong?" Li Xuan was taken aback. Could that young man be some ancient monster who had lived for thousands of years? After all, when one's strength reached a certain level, they could maintain an eternal youth. Even Li Xuan could keep his appearance unchanged now.
Shan Wuxie nodded slightly and said, "Afterward, that young man went to the Tongtian Road. I didn't follow him, as it was not a place I could go. Since then, I returned to the Yuan Realm. Based on my guess, that young man most likely came from the Xuancang Continent."
"Xuancang Continent..." Li Xuan's expression also became solemn. He immediately recalled the matter of the Xuancang Continent producing a peerless expert every thousand years.
"The appearance of that young man was around a thousand years ago," Shan Wuxie nodded.
"I have heard of the Xuancang Continent producing a peerless expert every thousand years, and they usually come out for some experience. Elder Shan, it is your great fortune to have encountered such a person," Li Xuan said.
"It's all due to luck. Tell me about yourself. What have you experienced since I left? Your strength has grown incredibly fast," Shan Wuxie said with a smile.
Li Xuan smiled, and after a moment of contemplation, he roughly recounted his experiences since Shan Wuxie's departure.
"You have been through a lot on your journey," Shan Wuxie said, slightly moved after hearing Li Xuan's account. After all, Li Xuan had been on the verge of death several times.
Li Xuan nodded, then looked at Xiao Bai and said, "It's also thanks to Xiao Bai. Otherwise, I wouldn't have reached the four-dimensional space so quickly."
Xiao Bai smiled and took Li Xuan's hand, saying, "Big brother, should you treat me to a candied haw now?"
Li Xuan was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter. "Yes, yes, not just one, but if Xiao Bai wants to eat them her whole life, I can afford it!"
Shan Wuxie also chuckled along. Such a scene had not been seen in a long time.
As time passed, Li Xuan and Shan Wuxie chatted for a long time. The two jars of spiritual wine were now nearly empty.
"By the way, Li Xuan, you mentioned your sister went to the Ghost Domain. I just remembered something. More than a year ago..." Shan Wuxie suddenly said as if he had recalled something.
Li Xuan immediately waved his hand to stop Shan Wuxie, "Elder Shan, I already know about the Ghost Domain. My sister is alive, just injured. Also, I didn't tell the truth back then. In fact, my sister was the former Ghost Emperor of the Ghost Domain."
Shan Wuxie was taken aback, clearly shocked by this news.
"This matter is of great importance. It's understandable that you didn't tell me the truth back then. However, the Ghost Domain has been sealed for over a year now, and it's difficult to know the exact situation inside," Shan Wuxie said.
Li Xuan's expression turned a little cold, and he said, "I believe Yao'er is still alive. Otherwise, the Ghost Domain wouldn't be in its current state. As for that demon emperor Liansheng, I will settle the score with him sooner or later."
Shan Wuxie looked at Li Xuan with some concern and said, "That demon emperor Liansheng is very powerful. Even I am no match for him. Although you now have Xingyao Merchant Guild as your backing, Xingyao Merchant Guild is just a merchant guild after all. In my opinion, you should not act rashly yet."
Li Xuan nodded slightly and said, "Don't worry, Elder Shan. I won't act recklessly without absolute certainty."
Shan Wuxie breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good."
"Big brother, the Yao'er you just mentioned, is that big brother's sister?" At this moment, Xiao Bai, who had been listening by the side, suddenly asked Li Xuan.
Li Xuan was taken aback for a moment but quickly recovered and nodded. "Like Xiao Bai, she's my sister."
"Is she injured?" Xiao Bai asked.
Li Xuan nodded gently. From the imaging stone that Chen Xingyu had brought out before, it was clear that Li Yao had been seriously injured. He wondered how her injuries were after more than a year had passed.
"Big brother, take me with you. I can heal my sister's injuries," Xiao Bai suddenly said.
Li Xuan's heart warmed, and he stroked Xiao Bai's head. "Xiao Bai, thank you. But right now, big brother cannot see her yet."
"Damn, little master, how could we forget about Xiao Bai? With Xiao Bai here, the restrictions of the Ghost Domain are completely meaningless," the Heavenly Dao Brush's voice suddenly sounded in Li Xuan's mind.
Li Xuan was stunned, and then he remembered that when he was trapped by the heavenly and earthly restrictions back then, it was Xiao Bai who had led him out. However, with the Ghost Domain sealed, could Xiao Bai have the ability to enter and exit freely?
"Little master, don't forget that Xiao Bai is the ancestor of all spirits. There are no restrictions in this world that can trap Xiao Bai," the Heavenly Dao Brush, being in sync with Li Xuan's thoughts, said.
Li Xuan's heart was also moved. If Xiao Bai could take him in, he might be able to find Li Yao's whereabouts.
With this thought, Li Xuan looked at Xiao Bai and said, "Xiao Bai, how about big brother takes you to try?"
Xiao Bai obediently nodded and said, "Okay."
