Chapter 2644
As Yan Aohan had said, Zhu Zhibin’s life was her own to walk. She was merely her sister and could not control her destiny.
Zhu Zhibin and Yu Yinuo had returned without resting. After being tested by Yan Aohan, Zhu Yanyi gave them many pills. Then, Yan Aohan sent them into the Mou Realm.
Zhu Yanyi did not know where the Mou Realm was, nor did she ask. She trusted that since Yan Aohan sent them there, she would protect them well.
In the following days, Zhu Yanyi was busy teaching Lü Huoyan.
Yan Aohan taught Ding Chengpei and played with his two daughters.
Yan Aohan was definitely a daughter-lover. Although Qiao’er was only an adopted daughter, Mianmian liked her very much. Loving the house and its birds, Yan Aohan grew to care for Qiao’er too.
One day, Yan Aohan was playing with his two daughters as usual. A couple arrived at the door.
“Is Daoist Lü living here?” the man asked.
“Lü Huoyan, someone is looking for you,” Yan Aohan called into the house. As the Yan Emperor, he felt a distance from cultivators in the cultivation world. This was a distance of status, which could not be changed.
Hearing her master’s voice, Lü Huoyan looked at Zhu Yanyi.
“Go see who it is,” Zhu Yanyi said. She went out too.
Lü Huoyan saw the visitors and was slightly surprised. “Daoist Ma, why is it you two?”
She introduced them to Zhu Yanyi and Yan Aohan. “Master, Grandmaster, these two are loose cultivators I met while traveling. They are a couple. This is Ma Chao, and this is her Dao Companion, Fairy Kuiju.”
Zhu Yanyi nodded slightly. “Since they are your friends, they must have something to discuss. Rest today and continue class tomorrow.”
“Yes,” Lü Huoyan nodded quickly. He turned to Ma Chao. “Brother Ma, let’s go inside to talk.”
Ma Chao nodded and helped his wife follow Lü Huoyan into the house.
Zhu Yanyi did not watch them. She saw her two daughters looking at her and smiled. “Mianmian, Qiao’er, do you miss Mommy?”
“Mommy,” Mianmian said fluently now. “Play.”
“Okay, Mommy will play with you.” Zhu Yanyi felt sorry for her daughters. Since Mianmian was born, she spent much time in the Ruyi Space. Zhu Yanyi and Yan Aohan often could not stay by her side. So when they were together, she cherished the time warmly.
Zhu Yanyi took out blocks and played with the two girls. Actually, only Mianmian played. Qiao’er was still too small. The only way she held the blocks was to put them in her mouth.
“Qiao’er, blocks are not for eating,” Zhu Yanyi said carefully, taking them away.
“This child is very well-behaved,” Yan Aohan said, having watched Qiao’er all day.
Zhu Yanyi hummed. “She is indeed a well-behaved child.”
“But our Mianmian is even better,” Yan Aohan said quickly, seeing Mianmian’s aggrieved expression.
Zhu Yanyi laughed. Fortunately, Qiao’er did not know yet. Otherwise, if Qiao’er also looked at her aggrievedly, how would the dignified Yan Emperor comfort both daughters?
“How much longer do you need to teach Lü Huoyan?” Yan Aohan asked.
Zhu Yanyi said, “I am cramming all the knowledge points into her mind roughly. She needs to practice to digest them. In about a month, I can finish teaching her Level 8 pill knowledge. As for Level 9 pill knowledge, I will seal it in her mind. Once she digests the Level 8 knowledge, the Level 9 knowledge will unlock naturally.”
Yan Aohan hummed. “According to you, we can leave here soon?”
Zhu Yanyi nodded. “There are few problems left. We can leave in at most two months. But is it too early to go to the Buddha Realm?”
Yan Aohan smiled. “It is a bit early. But we can relax our spirits. You cannot be so tired all the time.”
Zhu Yanyi said, “Oh.” Then she added, “If we go to the Buddha Realm, what about Zhibin and the others?”
Yan Aohan said, “After we go to the Buddha Realm, once I send you into the Amituo Realm, I will return. By then, they should be able to come out of the Mou Realm.”
“What exactly is the Amituo Realm? Why must I go there?” Zhu Yanyi asked curiously.
Yan Aohan said seriously, “The Amituo Realm is a place almost all Buddhas in the Buddha Realm visit. The Buddha became a Buddha cultivator there through enlightenment. Most importantly, if the Amituo Realm accepts you, you will have at least the power of a Buddha Realm Arhat Envoy. This gives you a better chance against the Evil Buddha.”
Yan Aohan smiled lightly. “Since you are the Medical Buddha Girl, you need them to remember your name. It would be unfair if you eliminated the Evil Buddha, but they thought it was just duty. I think that is a bad deal. That is why I want you to go to the Amituo Realm. However, I have not been there myself. I only have basic knowledge. But one thing is certain: if you pass the Amituo Realm and understand the true meaning of Buddha, you will have Buddha’s power. You might even gain some power from the Amituo Realm.”
Yan Aohan paused. “Legend says the Amituo Realm seals a world-destroying power. Only those who truly understand everything inside can get that power. But not just anyone can get it. It is like a stone. A stone monkey was born from just a little bit of Amituo Realm power. You can see how terrifying that power is.”
Zhu Yanyi nodded slightly after listening. “It seems the Amituo Realm’s power is extraordinary.”
Yan Aohan said, “To be honest, I am conflicted. Entering the Amituo Realm will definitely bring you danger. But I also know that since we have reached this point, this danger must be borne.”
Hearing Yan Aohan’s words, Zhu Yanyi smiled slightly. “Fortune favors the bold. You taught me this principle.”
“But I worry when it concerns you,” Yan Aohan said helplessly, looking at Zhu Yanyi. “Knowing you are going to a dangerous place, I am still worried. Moreover, at other times, if you are in danger, you can return directly to the Underworld. But in that place, unless you break through it yourself, it is impossible to return to the Underworld.”
Zhu Yanyi asked, “What about the Ruyi Space? Will it be blocked?”
