Top-Class Comprehension: Start with Basic Fist Techniques-Chapter 1025 - 317: Reunion After 60 Years! Yesterday Is Now a Painting, Things Remain but People Have Changed! (Part 2)

Lu Changsheng was very satisfied.

Originally, he planned to elevate the cultivation of some elders in the Holy Land Heavenly Sect.

At worst, transform them into blood kin.

But, on careful consideration.

Transforming them into blood kin at the Martial Saint level might not necessarily be a good thing for the Holy Land Heavenly Sect.

After all, once transformed into blood kin, they would become "outcasts" in the Heavenly Saint City.

If it were just one or two individuals, it wouldn't matter.

However, if the entire Sect became "outcasts," and Lu Changsheng left for a long time, the fate of the Holy Land Heavenly Sect would not be promising.

It's better to continue on as they are now.

The Holy Land Heavenly Sect should just develop steadily step by step.

"Alright, I still have to return to the Ancient Domain once more."

Lu Changsheng did not stay in the Holy Land Heavenly Sect for long, instead returning to the Ancient Domain.

After visiting the Heavenly Sect in the Ancient Domain, Lu Changsheng found it unimpressive.

The Heavenly Sect in the Ancient Domain, after the reforms during the founding of the Holy Land Heavenly Sect by Lu Changsheng, had already changed beyond recognition.

At least to Lu Changsheng, it seemed very unfamiliar.

So, Lu Changsheng returned to the North Region, back to Nanyang City, back to Miao Shou Garden.

Miao Shou Garden, the beginning of Lu Changsheng's journey in martial arts.

However, Lu Changsheng is now in his fifties or sixties.

Most of his old acquaintances from Miao Shou Garden have aged or died.

There were almost no familiar faces left.

While Miao Shou Garden still thrived.

The people and things were different; it was not the Miao Shou Garden in Lu Changsheng's memory anymore.

For a moment, Lu Changsheng suddenly felt a sense of loneliness.

It was as if, through all his growth, no one could accompany him by his side.

Lu Changsheng slowly returned to the house he once had in Miao Shou Garden.

It was a secret residence he had bought long ago.

The people of Miao Shou Garden didn't know about it.

Now, decades have passed, and he didn't know what had become of it.

Yet, when Lu Changsheng quietly stepped into the courtyard, he noticed signs of someone living there.

"Hmm?"

The courtyard was meticulously maintained.

There was a vibrant, lived-in feel about it.

Lu Changsheng saw some clothes hanging to dry in the courtyard.

Judging by the garments, it seemed to be a woman's residence.

Could it be that his courtyard had been left empty for so many years and was occupied by strangers?

It's really possible.

A house left vacant for decades could very likely have been occupied by someone else.

"Creak."

Suddenly, the main door opened.

An old woman, leaning on a walking stick and carrying a vegetable basket, slowly walked in.

Her steps were slow.

She seemed to be all alone.

After closing the main gate behind her, the old woman slowly walked into the house.

"Hmm?"

Just as she entered, the old woman glanced at the floor, her expression suddenly turning slightly somber.

She looked around but saw no one.

So she coldly said, "Since you're here, why not come out."

"I've been retired from the martial arts clan for at least a decade, and I never thought there would still be enemies coming for me."

"You've come all this way, state your name."

The old woman's voice was steady, showing no sign of panic at all.

"I'm not here to seek revenge."

"Perhaps you won't believe it."

"The original owner of this courtyard should be me."

Suddenly, a voice sounded from behind the old woman.

The old woman instantly turned around.

She had her fingers on a few concealed needles, ready to launch them.

But, when she turned and saw the figure behind her.

Especially that familiar face, she stood there as if struck by lightning, frozen in place.

"Lu... Lu Changsheng?"

"No, it can't be; decades have passed, Lu Changsheng must be at least sixty by now."

"You're not Lu Changsheng, who on earth are you? Are you a descendant of Lu Changsheng?"

The old woman seemed to recognize Lu Changsheng.

Seeing Lu Changsheng's appearance, she was extremely shocked.

Lu Changsheng was equally surprised, looking at the old woman he said: "You know Brother Lu?"

Lu Changsheng swept his awareness over.

The old woman's appearance was very aged.

Lu Changsheng really had no impression.

But, as soon as Lu Changsheng's awareness scanned her, the old woman's face instantly etched into his mind.

Immediately, an image surfaced in his mind.

"You are... Li Hongzhuang?"

Lu Changsheng recognized her.

Li Hongzhuang!

They met at the black market in Nanyang City back then.

Later, they accomplished many things together, forming a connection with Lu Changsheng.

Lu Changsheng never expected to see an old acquaintance again.

However, the once spirited, young beauty had turned into an elderly woman, white-haired and frail.

"You... you really are Lu Changsheng?"

"But you're sixty already, how can you still look like this?"

"So... young!"

Li Hongzhuang trembled, her face full of incredulity.

Lu Changsheng grabbed hold of Li Hongzhuang, supporting her frail body.

Now Lu Changsheng was sure that the old woman was indeed Li Hongzhuang.

To speak of this courtyard, apart from Lu Changsheng, only Li Hongzhuang knew of it.

Yet, Li Hongzhuang had retired from the martial arts clan but lived in this courtyard all along.

The reason was all too clear.

Some things, Lu Changsheng was not unaware of.

But the paths were different.

Now they could only meet in this manner.

"Yes, it's me."

"The wonders of martial arts, even immortality is nothing."

"I have walked far, far on the path of martial arts, not just decades, even hundreds, thousands, or tens of thousands of years, I will still look like this."

Lu Changsheng helped Li Hongzhuang sit down.

"Have you really become one of those legendary Immortal Gods?"

Li Hongzhuang once roamed the martial arts clan.

She had also heard the legends of Immortal Gods.

But she always thought it was nonsense back then.

But now, seeing Lu Changsheng, she realized that there truly were Immortal Gods in the world!
