Chapter 1067 - 528 4 Years
Time wheel turns, and the years show no mercy.
In the blink of an eye, another four years have passed.
Outside Yu County City, in a sprawling graveyard, Chen Mu, clad in green, stands in front of a grave, holding a jade wine pot in his hand. He gently uncorks it, releasing a fragrant aroma that clearly costs a fortune.
"This is the finest End of the World wine, a rare brew produced by the End of the World Sea Pavilion only once every ten years or so. I managed to procure some to send you off, old man."
Chen Mu gazes at the tomb, softly speaking, and then gently pours the wine from the jade pot in front of the grave.
On the standing tombstone, the name ’Yu Jiujiang’ is engraved.
This ancestor of the Yu Family, the oldest figure remaining in the Yu Family, despite the numerous life-extending resources provided by Chen Mu, eventually succumbed to the exhaustion of Qi-Blood and passed away after reaching a hundred years of age.
When Yu Jiujiang passed away, Chen Mu was still in seclusion, undisturbed by anyone, and thus missed Yu Jiujiang’s funeral. Only Xu Hongyu, Xiaohong, Chen Yue, and others hurried from the Seven Profound Sect to Yu County.
"With the demon disaster looming, I need to concentrate all my energies and arduously cultivate the Origin Dao in hopes of holding up the collapsing skies..."
Chen Mu murmurs before Yu Jiujiang’s tomb, as if conversing with the deceased Yu Jiujiang.
