"Kree!" That familiar cry brought a smile to Wei Wuyin's face, infused with warmth, excitement, relief, and a little amusement. It's been six years since the starfield's destruction, three years since his last breakthrough, and a few days after that, Bai Lin's glorious return.
She had completed her full nine years. What was normally extremely short for even Astral Core Realm cultivators, even to some upper-stage Qi Condensation Realm cultivators, felt incredibly long to Wei Wuyin. He was only fifty-four years old, so he still felt everyday with remarkable clarity.
Thinking about his last two and a half decades of life, he would often feel it was surreal. Then, he was just a Core Disciple at the Scarlet Solaris Sect, staving off schemes, assassinations, and fighting for every last bit of resources possible.
