Ultimate Series, Past Lives Revealed

167: A different way of accompanyingWith the enthusiastic help of the villagers, Li Jianyi successfully handled his Master’s funeral arrangements.

However, the pain of losing his Master plunged him into deep decadence; he was dazed all day, as if he had lost the direction of his life.

Just like that, time passed in a hurry, and in the blink of an eye, it was the seventh day, the legendary day of the soul’s return.

On this day, Li Jianyi finally pulled himself out of his depression; he decided to pull himself together and welcome his Master’s returning soul.

Night fell, and everything was silent.

Li Jianyi had prepared incense, candles, his Master’s favorite dishes, and a pot of mellow wine early on.

He placed these items neatly on the offering table, then lit the incense and candles, and piously bowed three times to the offering table.

Li Jianyi sat silently in front of the offering table, gazing at the flickering candlelight, with a thousand words surging in his heart.

He began to ramble to his Master, telling him about the longing and pain of these past few days, as if his Master were sitting right in front of him, listening.

Unknowingly, the night had deepened.

Li Jianyi’s voice gradually lowered, and in the end, he inexplicably fell asleep.

In his dream, Li Jianyi saw his Master’s figure.

His Master still had that transcendent, immortal appearance, smiling as he looked at him.

Li Jianyi shouted excitedly: ”Master! I knew you would come back to see me!”

Like a child, he ran quickly towards his Master, wanting to hug him.

However, his Master suddenly straightened his face and scolded Li Jianyi head-on: ”Jianyi, what are you doing? These seven days, I have been watching clearly from the underworld; you have neither been Cultivating nor doing your homework!”

Li Jianyi felt a bit aggrieved by the scolding; he muttered: ”That’s just because I couldn’t bear to part with you!”

Daoist Master Li saw this, shook his head helplessly, and said earnestly to Li Jianyi: ”I have been with you all along, just in a different way. Listen to me carefully; starting tomorrow, you must continue to Cultivate for me; you cannot continue to waste time like this!”

Li Jianyi nodded and said: ”Got it, Master. By the way, how are you doing down there? What position do you hold?”

Daoist Master Li hesitated for a moment upon hearing Li Jianyi’s question, then answered vaguely: ”Uh, your Master is very impressive! As for the specific position, I’ll tell you when there’s an opportunity later!”

Li Jianyi didn’t seem satisfied with this answer and quickly pressed: ”Master, stop keeping me in suspense! Tell me quickly!”

However, Daoist Master Li did not tell him; he turned around and said: ”I have things to attend to, I’m leaving first!”

Seeing this, Li Jianyi hurriedly shouted: ”Master! Don’t go!”

But Daoist Master Li’s figure had already faded into the distance, and Li Jianyi’s cries were gradually drowned out.

Li Jianyi looked unwillingly in the direction his Master had left, muttering incessantly: ”Master, you left so quickly; your disciple still had so much left to ask!”

In reality, Li Jianyi finally woke up. He looked around and found himself standing in front of his Master’s memorial tablet, with some offerings placed on the offering table.

Looking at his Master’s memorial tablet, Li Jianyi was filled with emotion and whispered: ”Master, although you are no longer in this world, your disciple will always remember your teachings. If you are in the underworld, you must bless your disciple with peace and prosperity!”
