The Ancient Sovereign

0One morning, a man and a woman, both in their early twenties, appeared outside the village. The men looked alike, thin and thin, as if they could be blown away by a gust of wind. Although the woman couldn't be said to be a beautiful woman, she still possessed a bit of beauty. She wasn't too far from the imperial concubine. The clothes they wore were very ordinary, they were obviously not rich people.    

    

Arriving at the front of the village, the two of them met Li Yong, who had just went out to gather herbs. Young man immediately asked: "Friend, may I ask where the Village Chief lives?"    

    

Li Yong was a kind person as he said, "The two of you must be here to settle down!"    

    

Young man nodded his head and replied: "My wife and I heard that the scenery here is not bad, and we intend to settle here for the rest of our lives."    

    

"Bro, you really chose the right place." Li Yong slightly smiled, "I just arrived here not too long ago. Although there are a lot of people here, the price isn't high. "Not only that, there are also many precious herbs in the surrounding mountains. A few days of harvesting would definitely be much more than farming." After he said that, he suddenly thought of something and said, "There is a house near my house that is preparing to move to Tianfeng City. Why don't you buy that place and make me your neighbor?"    

    

The Young man cupped his fists and said: "In that case, thank you very much."    

    

Li Yong waved his hand and said, "There's no need to be polite. We'll arrive at the Village Chief's residence as we walk forward. I wish you good luck."    

    

Young man cupped his fists and led his wife inside the village.    

    

The residents of Bluestone Village were quite friendly. Knowing that the two of them were going to settle down, some warm-hearted aunts even brought the two of them to where the Village Chief lived. On the way there, the old lady told Han Yan many stories about the Bluestone Village, such as how this place was beautiful, how there was water and flash spirits, how there was an immortal protecting the place.    

    

After a while, everyone came to a room. Other than Han Yan's house, this room was the best place to stay, which was also where the village chief lived before. There was a huge courtyard, through which an old man could be seen sweeping the fallen leaves.    

    

This old man was the current patriarch of the Bluestone Village, his name was Xu Sanduo. He was one of the first residents to come and settle down. Because he had been the village head when he was young, everyone had unanimously approved for him to be the new village head after he had come here.    

    

When everyone reached the front of the house, the woman called out, "Village head, a new person has come to settle down here."    

    

After Xu Sanduo heard this, he immediately put down the broom in his hand. He walked to the two in front of him and said in a friendly manner: "The two of you, come in." He then turned to the woman and asked, "Sister Liu, would you like to come in?"    

    

She waved her hand and said, "There's no need. You can arrange for them to settle down."    

    

Xu Sanduo nodded and brought the two of them to the living room. When his daughter-in-law poured some tea, he asked: "Where are the two of you from?"    

    

Young man replied, "My wife and I came from Longtian Village, about fifteen kilometers away. I heard that the environment here is very good and suitable for living, so we decided to move here."    

    

Xu Sanduo smiled and said proudly: "That's right, the environment here is one of the best in Ten Directions Continent's villages. You two have chosen this place to be absolutely beautiful." He paused for a moment and suddenly thought of something. He continued, "You two, since you have moved here, what about the elders at home?"    

    

Young man's expression darkened. He then sighed and said, "My parents are no longer in this world."    

    

Hearing that, Xu Sanduo did not continue asking, and changed the topic: "Since you two are here, then you are all Bluestone Village's villagers, I wonder what you two have planned?" He was afraid that the two of them would not understand, so he said in detail, "The houses in the village are already occupied. If the two of you want to come here and settle down, there are two ways. The first was to purchase some houses that were ready to leave the village and had nothing to do. Secondly, you need to build your own house. Not only do you need to pay a certain amount of fees to build your own house in your designated area, which one do you two plan to choose? "    

    

Young man thought for a moment, then said: "I think it's best if I buy one! I wonder how much will it cost? "    

    

Xu Sanduo replied: "Under normal circumstances, two silver would be enough."    

    

"Alright." The Young man took out a silver coin from his pocket and handed it over to Xu Sanduo. "Village head, this is the money.    

    

Xu Sanduo slightly smiled, and did not accept the silver coin, and said: "I just happen to have a few houses in my possession, the Patriarch asked me to pass them on my behalf, I will bring you over to take a look right now!" As he said this, he brought the two of them to walk in front of a few houses. These houses were all built by Han Yan back then. Young man took a look and selected one of them.    

    

Following that, Xu Sanduo took out a land deed and gave it to Young man. Then, he took out a notebook and asked the two of them, "You two should be able to read, right? Any resident who has settled or left the village must write their name down on it for future reference. " As he said that, he saw the Young man nod his head and passed a brush over.    

    

Young man took the brush and wrote two words on it — Han Yan.    

    

These two words were like a silver stroke with a golden hook, carrying with it an air of arrogance that made people feel a sense of superiority. When they glanced at these words, they couldn't help but be impressed by this aura.    

    

Xu Sanduo had never seen such words in his life. His body trembled and he lost his voice: "Little brother, you …"    

    

The man and woman were Han Yan and Qin Rouer. Han Yan was prepared to settle down in the Bluestone Village to comprehend the various conditions of the world so that he could turn into a god. That was why the two of them entered the village dressed as ordinary people. Of course, the two of them had made simple changes to each other's appearances, especially Qin Rouer's. If others were to look at her beautiful appearance, they would probably cause unnecessary trouble.    

    

Han Yan knew what the other party was thinking in his heart. Without waiting for him to finish speaking, he said, "This brat had once read some books when he was young, but unfortunately, after his parents left, the books were delayed."    

    

After Xu Sanduo heard this, he nodded and said: "Good calligraphy, truly a good calligraphy hand. If little brother continues to read, in the future, I will definitely pay my respects. " He didn't have much ability, he only knew how to judge looks. When he first saw Han Yan, he only felt that he was extraordinary. After reading the handwriting and looking carefully, he realized that Han Yan was the life of a king.    

    

A King was usually a title given to an Emperor. Back then, it had given him quite a fright.    

    

But Han Yan's words were convincing, after Xu Sanduo heard it, he did not think too much and followed along with it.    

    

Han Yan smiled and said: "Village Chief, I have long seen through the world and have not the slightest bit of interest in being bestowed the title of Emperor. I just want to spend my life with my wife. " His voice wasn't loud, but it was filled with an vicissitudes of life. It didn't sound like anything that could be said at his age.    

    

Xu Sanduo was slightly shocked, as he looked at Han Yan with some astonishment, and surprise flashed past his eyes. He had seen countless people in his life, and almost everyone could see with a single glance his personality and fate in the future. However, the young man in front of him, no matter how he looked at him, felt as if there was a flower reflected in a mirror in the water. It was hazy and ethereal.    

    

Xu Sanduo faintly felt that the youth in front of him was extraordinary, but he couldn't remember where he had felt it to be different. Suddenly, his gaze fell upon the woman. His pupils constricted, and a monstrous wave surged in his heart. Although Qin Rouer's appearance had changed, her outline did not, and it was precisely so, that Xu Sanduo realised that the girl in front of him was extremely similar to the immortal companion in his dreams. Not only that, he also thought of Han Yan's name, which was Han as well, and the ancestral hall that fairy had made him build was also surnamed Han.    

    

"Impossible, this is definitely not a coincidence." Xu Sanduo thought like this in his heart, but he secretly swore that he would definitely rot this matter in his stomach. Regardless of whether the two people in front of him came here like he thought, it would only be good if word of it didn't spread, it wouldn't be bad. Thinking of this, San Duo took a deep breath and said: "You two, how about I take you two for a walk around the village and let you all get to know each other?"    

    

Han Yan waved his hand, and said: "Village Chief, after my wife and I go back, I still have to tidy up the rooms, so I won't be going to the village to walk around." With that, he left.    

    

Looking at the two's backs as they left, the expression in Xu Sanduo's eyes became even more complex, finally transforming into a silent sigh.    

    

After Han Yan and Qin Rouer returned to their room, Qin Rouer asked: "Han Yan, that old man seems to have guessed our identity, should we erase his memories?"    

    

"No need." Han Yan answered, "Since you want to comprehend the various aspects of life, you have to return to being an ordinary person. If you were to touch on other memories, wouldn't you become a cultivator again?" With that, he picked up a cloth and wiped the dust off the table.    

    

Qin Rouer was startled, his eyes filled with surprise, and said: "Han Yan, how can you do things that are matters of mortals?"    

    

Han Yan smiled slightly, and said: "Like I said before, we are all mortals now, so there's no need to use any more spells. After saying his piece, he paused for a moment before continuing, "Rou'er, although you have yet to reach the Nine Revolutions, it is still a little too early for you to comprehend life. If you can really comprehend something, it will be of great benefit to you in the future when you reach the divine realm."    

    

After hearing that, a complex expression flashed across Qin Rouer's face, and then flashed across his face, and he said: "Han Yan, I just want to stay by your side, it doesn't matter what I do. Actually, there are many times when I envy mortals. They don't have that much of a goal, so they don't have too much trouble. "    

    

Han Yan smiled, and did not say much as he continued to busy himself with the matters at home.    

    

That night, the two of them lay in bed, unable to fall asleep. After all, after being an Immortal for so many years, it was rather uncomfortable for him to suddenly become a mortal. Qin Rouer curled into Han Yan's embrace like a kitten and said, "Han Yan, don't mortals need that everyday? "Why are you …" As she spoke to here, her charming face blushed. Perhaps she also felt that it was difficult to say such words.    

    

Han Yan remained silent, as if he was asleep. After a long while, he sighed, "Yes! "You're right. Since I'm a mortal, I should use the thoughts of a mortal to think about things." After saying that, he quickly took off his clothes.    

    

The next morning, the two woke up early. Han Yan went to the village and bought a medicinal basket and shovel before he left home.    

    

Qin Rouer also learnt to cook rice the way a mortal would. Although he might not necessarily eat this rice, he still had to cook it. Just think about it, if the neighbors knew that they had never cooked in this house since they moved here, how they would feel and treat the two of them as monsters. After all, in the myths, there would often be examples of Demonic Beast taking human form and living with humans.    

    

In fact, if he thought about it carefully, it wasn't impossible. This was because all the Demonic Beast that could transform into a human had been cultivated to an extremely high realm, and this kind of Demonic Beast similarly wanted to turn into a god. Soul Formation, on the other hand, had to comprehend the heavens and earth, comprehend the 100 forms of the world, and comprehend life and death. It was precisely because of this that those Demonic Beast came back to live together with humans. From a certain point of view, they were just using a single person to complete their goal of reaching the Soul Formation stage. However, many of the Demonic Beast failed to transform into a god and ended up falling in love with a human.    

    

At ten in the afternoon, Han Yan came out with a medicinal basket on his back. Just as he entered the door, he heard Qin Rouer shouting, "Husband, it's time to eat."    

    

After Han Yan finished washing his hands, he went to the dining table. When he saw the items on the table, he was stunned and exclaimed, "This is …"
