Chapter 134 Returning to the Village
However, when faced with their offers, Shi An simply laughed it off. He accepted all the benefits they offered, but avoided mentioning anything about joining them or introducing his goddess to him.
Finally, an hour passed, and seeing that Shi An was unyielding, the various forces had no choice but to give up for the time being and prepare to try to win him over again after the goddess of their clan emerged from seclusion.
The reason they did this was because they noticed that the other person was always accompanied by a beautiful young girl.
Based on this, they had reason to believe that this guy had only refused because he hadn't seen their goddess in person, and that once he saw her stunning beauty, he would surely be captivated by her.
"Yes, that's it!"
Thinking this, they quickened their pace.
Watching the departing figures of the various forces vanish like the wind, the witch quietly approached Yunxi and whispered in her ear, "Hehe, little sister, are you feeling a little threatened?"
"Um?"
Feeling the warmth from beside her ear, Yunxi frowned slightly, then took two steps to the side: "There's no need for you to worry about that, Fairy. This is my private matter."
"A fairy?"
Upon hearing Yunxi call her a fairy, the witch was taken aback at first, then turned to Yuechan and whispered, "Sister, look, that little sister is calling me a fairy! Hehe~"
Unfortunately, Yuechan's attitude towards her remained unchanged; she completely ignored her and instead moved gracefully to Shi An, saying, "I never imagined that Brother Shi was the legendary young supreme being who single-handedly fought against a group of venerables. I was rather rude earlier; please forgive me, Brother Shi!"
As she spoke, she slightly bent her knees and bowed to Shi An.
What infuriated her was that, instead of being flattered and rushing to help her up as other prodigies usually would, Shi An calmly accepted her apology.
The next moment, he said with a smile, "Fairy, there's no need for that. If you truly feel it's impolite, why not come back to the village with me? When my younger brother returns, we can marry him."
Such an attitude caused Yuechan to frown slightly, before replying calmly, "Brother Shi is joking. We cultivators should be wholeheartedly pursuing the supreme Dao, how can we be attached to romantic love?"
"Oh? If that's how it is..."
As soon as Yuechan finished speaking, Shi An's laughter rang out again: "Then why does the fairy always want to recruit geniuses into her sect?"
For some reason, Shi An's words caused Yue Chan to tremble slightly, but she calmly replied, "This is a matter within the sect. Since Brother Shi is not in the sect, it is inconvenient for him to inform you."
"Since Brother Shi is unwilling to join the sect, I will take my leave now."
Having said that, Yuechan, knowing she was not good with words, immediately lost the will to stay any longer. After a hasty remark, she turned and left the Realm of the Void Gods.
"Oh, sister, wait for me!"
Seeing this, the witch realized she had lost her fun and quickly followed Yuechan's footsteps.
With the departure of the two, the place fell completely silent. Apart from Shi An and Yun Xi beside him, there were no other living beings.
"Let's go, we should head back too."
Looking around, Shi An and Yun Xi also left the Void God Realm and returned to Stone Village.
"Little An, how's the little one?"
"Yeah, Brother An, did Little One beat up that Shi Yi?"
"Brother, did Xiao Hao win?"
As soon as the two returned to Stone Village, the villagers gathered around them, bombarding them with questions. Clearly, everyone was eager to know about Shi Hao's situation in the Void God Realm.
"Everyone, please be patient and let me explain slowly."
Seeing the concerned looks in his clansmen's eyes, Shi An smiled slightly. After calming everyone down, he found a stone stool to sit on and told them about the events in the Void God Realm.
"Brother Hao's battle with Shi Yi this time was truly earth-shattering. Shi Yi truly lives up to his reputation as a person born with double pupils..."
Under Shi An's vivid explanation, everyone in Shi Village, adults and children alike, listened with great interest.
Even the fluffy ball darted out from the side, jumped onto Shi An's shoulder, and squeaked, clearly quite concerned about Shi Hao's situation.
Yunxi stood aside, watching all of this quietly, her heart at peace.
She felt that only in this small village could she truly relax, without having to think about her family or constantly striving to improve her cultivation.
"By the way, Uncle Xiao An, could you take us to see the Realm of the Void Gods next time? It sounds so exciting, we really want to go and see it for ourselves!"
Suddenly, a childish voice rang out, with curiosity and longing shining in its eyes.
This little guy is Shi Zhonghou's child, a nephew or niece of Shi An.
As soon as this little guy spoke, the other little guys also looked at Shi An with hopeful eyes, clearly wanting to join in as well.
After a moment's thought, Shi An nodded and replied, "Alright, I'll take you there once your cultivation reaches the Cave Heaven Realm."
"Yay! That's great!"
Although the children looked somewhat bitter at Shi An's insistence that they break through to the Cave Heaven Realm before he would take them to the Void God Realm, they couldn't help but cheer and jump for joy, their laughter echoing throughout the Stone Village.
As for the adults, upon hearing that Shi Hao was unharmed, they breathed a sigh of relief and began to discuss among themselves, expressing their amazement at the battle between Shi Hao and Shi Yi.
"That Shi Yi is indeed extraordinary, born with double pupils, his future achievements are limitless." An old man in the village stroked his beard, his eyes gleaming.
"Hmph, our little one is no weakling either, he'll definitely surpass Shi Yi in the future!" another auntie retorted.
Amidst the joyful sounds, the night deepened, the moon hung high in the sky, and its silvery light bathed the stone village, draping this tranquil little village in a soft glow.
The villagers gradually dispersed and returned home to rest, but Shi An and Yun Xi did not immediately go inside.
Shi An sat alone under the big willow tree at the entrance of the village, gazing at the starry sky, his mind filled with countless thoughts.
Yunxi walked closer and sat down next to Shi An. The two were silent, yet there was a tacit understanding between them.
A night breeze swept by, causing Yunxi's hair to flutter gently, seemingly soothing the turmoil in Shi An's heart.
"Can you tell me what you're thinking?"
After a long silence, Yunxi broke the silence first, her voice soft yet full of curiosity.
"future!"
Upon hearing Yunxi's question, Shi An answered calmly, but did not look away, still gazing at the starry sky.
"future·······"
When Yunxi heard Shi An say that he was thinking about the future, she didn't narcissistically assume that he was thinking about his future with her, but those two words still made her fall into deep thought.
Yunxi shifted her gaze and, just like Shi An, looked up at the starry sky.
