I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 1369: Chapter 742: Confirming It’s a Daughter (7K) Chapter 1369: Chapter 742: Confirming It’s a Daughter (7K) After checking out of the train station in Yu Wood City, Chen Mobai and the apprentice Xiao Hei bid each other farewell and went their separate ways.

“Uncle Chen, if you’re coming over one day, let me know in advance.”

Xiao Hei, full of energy, waved to him and then boarded the car Chen Mobai had called for her.

According to previous plans, Chen Mobai was now supposed to head to Qing Sang Academy.

However, after seeing off Xiao Hei, he directly vanished from the spot using his teleportation ability.

Last night, upon receiving Shi Wanyu’s address, he had rushed over immediately.

But it was far too late.

Sensing the steady breathing of the person asleep inside the house, he remained silent for a long time before eventually deciding to leave first.

Chen Mobai’s feelings for Shi Wanyu were very complex. After so many years, that incident from the past was still the most unspeakable matter of his cultivation journey.

He hadn’t been tricked and taken advantage of many times in his life, but the impression this time left was the deepest.

He had thought that as time passed, by one hundred years later when Shi Wanyu passed away in meditation, he would be able to face it with a calm heart.

But who could have known…

In the sea of his heart, memories began to surface of his youthful days with Shi Wanyu, their acquaintance, exchanges, and eventually how they became strangers.

With his current level of cultivation, as long as he thought back, he could recall every detail of what he had experienced.

Amid consecutive teleportations, he arrived at the entrance of a flower shop.

The name of the flower shop was “Brushing Dawn.”

Seeing this, Chen Mobai silently paused for a moment.

After graduating from Starlight Institute, Shi Wanyu, because of her pregnancy, wasn’t able to establish her Foundation but was exempted from military service.

However, because she had a child out of wedlock, she was despised by her parents back in her hometown.

Still, she was their flesh and blood, so when Xiao Hei was born with the Nine Yin Meridian, her mother immediately sought help from the Yu family.

Later, Xiao Hei was personally taken away by Yu Huiping, who also asked the Yu family to take good care of Shi Wanyu, the mother, promising a reunion of mother and daughter once Xiao Hei’s fatal condition was cured.

After that, it was likely that every year, Shi Wanyu would visit the Five Peaks Immortal Mountains to see Xiao Hei for a month.

Hence, the mother and daughter had a very good relationship.

Chen Mobai had also inquired about Shi Wanyu’s life in Yu Wood City through Gu Mingxuan. Despite the stain on her reputation for having a child out of wedlock, she was still beautiful and had the Yu family’s backing, so there were quite a few suitors.

Some of these suitors were willing to accept Xiao Hei, the “tag-along.”

However, Shi Wanyu had refused them all.

She used her savings and her parents’ support to open a flower shop to enjoy life.

Though she couldn’t be wealthy, she could still maintain her life.

The location of the flower shop was her own choice, with the first floor for customers and the second as her residence. There was also a third-floor loft, reserved for Xiao Hei.

Chen Mobai, through the glass door, watched the bustling figure inside, gathering his somewhat scattered emotions.

He checked the time, knowing that it would take about an hour for Xiao Hei to come over by car from the train station.

But since he had arranged the driver, they would take a longer route, adding another half hour.

It was enough time for him to meet with an old friend.

With that thought, Chen Mobai lightly pushed open the glass door.

Ding-ling-ling!

The chime of the bell at the entrance, a restriction, rang out, signaling to the shop owner that a customer had come in.

“Welcome…”

Shi Wanyu heard the sound of the bell and continued to cut the bright ice-blue roses without pause, but her snow-white neck was lifted, and she greeted the incoming customer with a professional smile.

But when she saw Chen Mobai walking in, she was stunned in place.

The rose and the scissors in her hand lost control and fell from her palm.

Chen Mobai’s figure flashed with silver light as he teleported in front of Shi Wanyu and caught the falling scissors and rose.

“Long time no see.”

After exchanging glances and remaining silent for a long time, it was still Chen Mobai who took the initiative to speak. As he did, he handed over the rose and scissors to the beautiful woman in front of him.

Chen Mobai had thought that after more than forty years, Shi Wanyu would have aged considerably.

After all, at the age of seventy-one and being of the same generation as him, even a Qi Practitioner, no matter how well-maintained, would start to show signs of aging.

But the Shi Wanyu before him, although she had lost the innocence and vibrancy of their first meeting, had gained a mature charm from the years that had passed.

The white blouse, along with the grey apron decorated with cut flowers, outlined her more rounded and fuller figure compared to the past. Below her waist, which would encompass a gentle grasp, were black work pants that failed to conceal the outstanding contours of her legs, which appeared even more slender and straight when she stood.

“Long time no see, do you… Councilman, would you like to buy some flowers?”

Shi Wanyu, after receiving the rose and scissors, seemed to have finally calmed her shocked emotions, and with a slight tremble in her voice, she asked softly, looking down.

“When we graduated, you invited me to a meal, during which there seems to have been some event that I have no memory of. I wanted to ask you about it.”

Chen Mobai directly brought up the incident from the past while looking at the elegant and alluring Shi Wanyu in front of him.

“That… I…,” Shi Wanyu, hearing Chen Mobai actually bring up that incident, became even more flustered, knowing she had been in the wrong. Instinctively, she wanted to defend herself, but in the end, she simply lowered her head and began to apologize.
