Chapter 1171 Their Journey Together

??1171 Their Journey Together

’Jin Xi... She left us too soon. I still had a lot of questions for her.’ Yuan sighed inwardly as he flew in a straight line towards the direction Jin Xi gave him.

As he flew towards his unknown destination, Yuan would slowly absorb the memories from the swords he acquired at the Sword Graveyard, hoping that one of them had memories of Jin Xi.

One day... one week... two weeks...

A month later.

"Did Jin Xi give me the right directions, or was she messing with me till the very end? I have been flying for a month straight now, yet I don’t see anything but water." He sighed out loud.

After two weeks of flying straight, Yuan eventually left the land and entered what seemed to be an endless sea.

When one encounters nothing for a month, they could only assume that they went the wrong way.

"Furthermore, I am still missing one key..."

Feng Yuxiang chuckled, "I don’t think she would mess with you like that, especially after knowing your real identity."

After another week of flying, Yuan suddenly noticed with his divine sense a small island about a thousand miles straight ahead, but it appeared to be empty.

Regardless, this pumped up his adrenaline, causing him to speed towards it like a shooting star.

When he arrived, he landed on the seemingly empty island.

After waiting around for a couple of minutes with nothing happening, Yuan shouted, "Hey! I know you’re here, Tian Xin! Show yourself!"

Sure enough, a figure would appear in the distance before slowly approaching him.

However, this person wasn’t wearing a mask, and he looked exactly like Yuan.

"Do you have all nine keys?" Tian Xin asked him.

"No, I am still missing one, but if Jin Xi told me to come here, then I should find the last key here."

Tian Xin smiled, and he showed his palm to Yuan.

Resting on top of his palm was a large key that looked different from the rest.

"This is the Master Key the last key to my kingdom..." Tian Xin snapped his finger, and a massive building appeared out of thin air behind him.

"So what do I have to do to get it, since I doubt you’ll give it to me for free." Yuan said with his arms crossed in front of his chest.

"It’s nothing much. I just want you to do something for me." Tian Xin said with a calm face.

"What is it?"

"You probably already realized this by now, but there are some people in your current life that used to be with you in your past life."

Yuan raised an eyebrow before nodding, "That’s right. Why are you telling me this now?"

"Jin Xi... If you ever encounter her, please take care of her, as I have failed to do so in the past."

"You failed her? What does that mean?"

In response to his question, Tian Xin pointed a finger at him before shooting something inside his forehead.

Yuan immediately became dazed as memories flooded his head.

Inside this memory, he was seeing things through Tian Xin’s eyes, and there was a beautiful woman standing before him with a defeated look on her face.

"Tian Xin, let me follow you! I want to become as strong as you!"

"And how will following me help you achieve that? I refuse. You’ll just be a hassle." Tian Xin sneered coldly.

Jin Xi gritted her teeth and said, "I don’t care! I am going to follow you, regardless if you agree or not!"

"So you are a stalker now, as well?" Tian Xin sighed.

"S-Shut up! I will follow you and learn from you! In return, I will serve you! I-I am even willing to call you Master!"

Tian Xin sighed again, and he turned around.

"Do as you please. But don’t expect me to protect you when you get in trouble, since the places that I am fated to traverse are filled with danger."

He gently leaped into the air, before flying away. Jin Xi immediately followed him despite the injuries on her body that she’d suffered after a short battle with him.

And over the next several thousand years, Jin Xi would follow Tian Xin around like a minion. From dangerous places that even Immortals avoid to uncharted lands, Jin Xi witnessed all sorts of environments and experienced countless near death situations. However, she still followed him without uttering a single complaint.

After thousands of years of being together, Jin Xi learned many things about Tian Xin, and it was inevitable that she would eventually start to have romantic feelings for him. But not wanting to ruin their relationship, Jin Xi kept her emotions hidden. Unfortunately, she was bad at hiding her emotions, and even a blind man could tell that she was in love with Tian Xin.

As for Tian Xin, even though he knew her feelings for him, because he was born with memories of his past lives, he could not respond to it and acted as though he didn’t notice it. He also didn’t want to admit it, but he enjoyed Jin Xi’s company.

To him, Jin Xi was his unofficial disciple, and he would give her cryptic advice every now and then, assisting her cultivation.

He would also save her life a couple times despite saying otherwise. Of course, he did so discreetly so Jin Xi wouldn’t make fun of him for it, but she would eventually find out about it, which caused her feelings for him to grow stronger.

Their journey together would continue for another hundred thousand years, until Jin Xi perished in an accident on the day that she decided to temporarily separate from him.

Yuan felt the rage and sorrow Tian Xin had felt during the moment he discovered her death.

"Once again, I have failed to protect someone I love..." Tian Xin would halt his journey for a thousand years, reflecting on his actions and his hesitation to express his feelings for Jin Xi because he also had feelings for his loved ones in his past lives.

As the only ’Tian’ who recovered his past lives’ memories before meeting someone special, he saw the world in a different light, and he would always push away others, fearing that it would be disloyal to his previous partners.

During his thousand-year-long seclusion, Tian Xin remained on a small island the same one that Yuan was currently on.
