Urban Undying Lord

Chapter 1969: Chapter 1988: New Beginnings (Grand Finale)

Time knows not the years; with a laugh, it is already dusk.

Since the battle of Reincarnation and Destruction, a full ten billion years have passed; this is almost equal to the birth and annihilation of an entire Chaotic Universe.

Yet after that battle of Reincarnation and Destruction, the Chaos Great World did not fall into cyclic ruin; even the entire Chaotic Universe has been gradually restoring its former visage.

Only those two who fought until the very end never again appeared within the Chaotic Universe, but their names have ever been remembered by all living beings of later ages.

...

Chaos Great World.

The Heavenly Burial Palace has long since ceased to exist, and those ancient figures have hidden themselves away. Heaven and Earth’s Primordial Qi has reappeared; the ancient Supreme is no longer the end of a Cultivator’s path. Even if one Cultivates to a realm that shakes Heaven and Earth, it is no longer called a delusion.

This is a new era. Numerous peerless Heavenly Pride emerge, sweeping across the sky, letting the entire Chaotic Universe once more display a resplendent flourishing age, ten thousand Daos contending, prosperity at its peak.

...

Human World, Duanchang Mountain.

Amid verdant mountains and clear waters, there is a small village wreathed in faint cooking smoke. It is now midday; every household is washing rice and cooking, and many farmers are plowing the fields and tilling the land.

"Ai!"

A soft sigh sounded in the fields. One saw a fat man with a bulky figure throw aside his hoe and gaze toward the Heavenly Vault until his eyes ached, an indescribable desolation in his eyes.

"Did sir truly die in battle?"

This man was none other than the Fatty Huang. Every day he would look up toward the Heavenly Vault, waiting for Ye Xuan to appear again. He has waited a full ten billion years.

But oceans shift into mulberry fields, Time changes and flows; in the end, Fatty Huang’s waiting came to nothing. That man like Heaven, like Earth, never again appeared before him.

"Enough, you damn fatty. Today is sir’s memorial day; we should go pay our respects."

Gu Beichen walked out from another field. He patted Fatty Huang’s shoulder and pulled him toward the edge of the farmlands.

At this moment, it was not only Fatty Huang and Gu Beichen; figures from the entire small village were appearing, quietly and silently coming before a clothing-and-hat tomb in the middle of the village.

Looking around, the people in this small village were actually all Ye Xuan’s old acquaintances from years past. Each was one who could reach through Heaven and Earth, yet unexpectedly they had all taken up residence here in the Human World, in this tiny village.

The Four Great Heaven-shaking Desolations.

Several of Ye Xuan’s Disciples.

Lord of Extreme Emotion, Ye Qingmei.

Guanghan Fairy.

Nine Heaven Mysterious Maiden.

Sun Wukong.

Master of Space-Time.

Lord of Humanity.

...

All the old friends with deep ties to Ye Xuan had at this moment gathered before the clothing-and-hat tomb, only to see that tombstone carved with Ye Xuan’s name.

A sorrowful atmosphere was breeding; no one spoke. Even Heaven and Earth dimmed, and the sound of wind, rain, and thunder came rolling in.

"Husband, Duanchang Mountain is your Origin Land. Though after countless Time the mountains and rivers of the Human World have shifted, we still found this place, to use it to honor your heroic spirit." Nine Heaven Mysterious Maiden’s eyes were misted with water as she gently whispered to the clothing-and-hat tomb.

"Big Brother, since that battle of Reincarnation, we too have stepped into Half-step Eternal. Little Sister so wished you were alive, to see Little Sister’s Cultivation of today." ’Xi Yao’ choked out.

"Master, we a few Disciples have also Cultivated to the Heavenly Defying Realm, yet you can no longer see it." Ye Xuanmo and the others were overwhelmed with grief.

...

One old friend after another made offerings before Ye Xuan’s clothing-and-hat tomb; the sorrowful air never dispersed.

"What are you all doing?"

Fatty Huang roared himself hoarse, glaring viciously at the grieving crowd. "Sir will not die. He will definitely come back alive. I’ll wait for sir right here, wait for sir to return to the world."

"Fatty Huang, sir is already dead. We have to face reality." Gu Beichen had shared endless Time with Fatty Huang; only he could console him.

"Impossible. Sir will absolutely not die. What are you all crying for?" Fatty Huang bellowed ferociously at everyone, utterly unable to accept the fact of Ye Xuan’s death.

"Husband has already passed away. I know your heart is sorrowful, but..." Nine Heaven Mysterious Maiden bit lightly on her lips and could no longer continue.

"Who said I died? I am Undying, after all. Back then I even had a title, called the Undying Venerable."

Suddenly, a soft laugh sounded by everyone’s ears. That familiar voice made them all freeze, then they snapped their heads toward the source of the sound.

A person!

A young man!

A black-clothed youth!

His three thousand strands of hair hung down his back; his black clothes rippled though there was no wind. The corner of his mouth was curved in a faint smile, as he looked at everyone.

If he was not Ye Xuan, who else could he be?

"S–sir?"

"Husband?"

"Brother?"

"Big Brother?"

"Master?"

...

When Ye Xuan appeared before them, they were first stunned, then overjoyed to the point of tears, shouting in excitement. The next instant, they all rushed to Ye Xuan’s side and hugged him tightly.

"Me, I can’t die. I only slept for a very long time. I came to see you all as soon as I woke up. One by one now, don’t start sniveling." Ye Xuan teased with a smile.

"Sir, I knew you weren’t dead."

Fatty Huang flailed his hands and feet in excitement, as happy as a child, because in his heart, Ye Xuan could never be defeated, much less die.

Everyone came up one by one to reminisce with Ye Xuan. This reunion of old friends also filled Ye Xuan with emotion.

"Sir, now that you’ve returned, you must have defeated that supreme existence within the Reincarnation Gate. Take us back to the Chaos Great World and truly rule the entire Chaotic Universe." Fatty Huang said excitedly.

"Well, this..."

Ye Xuan hesitated, then smiled and looked at everyone. "In truth, I came today to bid you all farewell."

"Farewell?"

"Sir, where are you going?"

Everyone was startled. Why was Ye Xuan about to part with them just after he had returned?

Ye Xuan pointed to the Heavenly Vault, then smiled. "The universe we reside in is called the Primordial Universe. Outside the Primordial Universe lies an even vaster world, called the Nine Heavens and Nine Earths Celestial World."

"If one day you step into the Eternal Realm, you may go to the Celestial World to seek me out. Then we shall drink together and talk at leisure."

"Celestial World, Nine Heavens and Nine Earths?" Everyone murmured, clearly shaken by Ye Xuan’s words.

"Rest assured. This Primordial Universe is under my control. Before long it will be promoted to a higher-level universe. As long as you Cultivate diligently, you will be able to step into the Eternal Realm with ease. It is only a matter of time before we meet again." Ye Xuan was taking his leave of them.

"Ye Xuan, time’s up. We should set out."

Rumble!

A beam of heavenly light spread down from the Celestial Void above. In the depths of that Celestial Void, Liu Baiyi and ’Yuan’ stood side by side, clearly waiting for Ye Xuan to journey together to the Celestial World.

Chi!

Ye Xuan smiled and waved farewell to everyone. He soared into the sky, transforming into a Light of Order, arriving at the side of Liu Baiyi and ’Yuan’.

A golden avenue spread out beneath the three of them, carrying them toward that vast and boundless Celestial World of the Nine Heavens and Nine Earths.

"My friends, I’ll be waiting for you in the Celestial World."

Across the Celestial Universe, throughout ancient Time, that trace of laughter echoed without end by everyone’s ears.
