### Chapter 2507 — The Beautiful Morning
The beautiful earlier morning of Chen Ti Village arrived.
The sun slowly rose.
The golden sunlight spread across the peaceful Chen Ti Village.
Yang Lin was calmly sitting on a chair next to the round table outside the pavilion.
Grandpa Lu was sitting on the opposite chair.
Meanwhile—
Chaoran Zhi Quan was in the kitchen preparing breakfast.
She was making a spiritual soup.
The fragrance of the soup slowly spread throughout the private courtyard.
After some time—
Chaoran Zhi Quan brought the spiritual soup outside.
She placed it on the round table.
"Yang Lin, Grandpa Lu, try the spiritual soup."
She then sat down as well.
Yang Lin calmly looked at the spiritual soup.
Chaoran Zhi Quan smiled.
"How is it?"
Before Yang Lin could answer—
Chaoran Zhi Quan suddenly asked,
"Yang Lin."
"Do you know why Chen Ti only has less than a million people, but Chen Ti Village is 10 Ly in size?"
Yang Lin calmly looked toward her.
"First, Ly is called Light Years."
"Second, because back then there were more people in Chen Ti Village."
"But over the years, many people left."
"That left only less than a million people."
The expressions of Chaoran Zhi Quan and Grandpa Lu instantly changed.
Both of them looked at Yang Lin in shock.
Chaoran Zhi Quan stared at him.
"How did you know?"
Yang Lin calmly answered,
"Because I know."
Chaoran Zhi Quan was speechless for a moment.
Then she simply smiled.
"Is Ly called Light Years?"
Yang Lin calmly nodded.
"Yes."
Grandpa Lu suddenly looked toward Yang Lin in surprise.
"In the Lower Realm, I haven't heard such a word before."
Chaoran Zhi Quan nodded.
"My grandpa has traveled across the Lower Realm."
Yang Lin calmly said,
"That's great."
He then calmly continued,
"Well, this Light Year thing..."
"I'll tell you later."
Chaoran Zhi Quan nodded.
"Alright."
Yang Lin calmly picked up the bowl.
He drank the spiritual soup.
After drinking it—
he calmly said,
"This soup is good."
Chaoran Zhi Quan smiled brightly.
"Thank you."
Grandpa Lu calmly looked toward Yang Lin.
"Yang Lin."
"Where do you want to see in Chen Ti Village?"
Yang Lin calmly answered,
"Anywhere is good."
Chaoran Zhi Quan thought for a moment.
"Then let's go to the Chen Ti Village Temple."
"It's around five light years ahead, in the middle of Chen Ti Village."
"People come there to worship."
Yang Lin calmly nodded.
"Alright."
Chaoran Zhi Quan smiled.
"Then let's go now."
Yang Lin calmly answered,
"Alright."
The two stood up.
They looked toward Grandpa Lu.
"Bye, Grandpa Lu."
Grandpa Lu calmly smiled.
"See you tomorrow morning."
"Stay safe."
Yang Lin and Chaoran Zhi Quan then walked out of the private courtyard.

### Chapter 2508 — The Chen Ti Village Temple
Yang Lin and Chaoran Zhi Quan walked along the village road.
The distance between the private courtyard and the center of Chen Ti Village was enormous.
They continued walking.
The scenery around them was peaceful.
The trees swayed gently in the morning breeze.
Time slowly passed.
Eventually—
the two arrived near the middle of Chen Ti Village at midnight.
There—
a massive pavilion appeared before them.
It had ten floors.
It was the tallest structure in the entire Chen Ti Village.
Yang Lin calmly looked toward it.
"This is the temple?"
Chaoran Zhi Quan calmly nodded.
"Yes."
"Inside is the temple."
Yang Lin and Chaoran Zhi Quan walked inside.
There were many middle-aged and old men and women inside.
Some were standing before statues.
Some were praying.
Some were looking toward different gods.
Yang Lin calmly looked around.
There were many gods.
Male gods.
Female gods.
Different stone statues.
People were praying for wealth.
Some prayed for glory.
Others prayed for wellbeing.
Yang Lin calmly looked at the statues.
He quietly thought to himself,
"These aren't gods."
"Gods are only Dao Severing."
"These are all Transcendence Realm Late Stage Perfection Peak."
"They are comparable to the strongest of the Twelve Pillar Gods."
Yang Lin calmly looked around.
There were many statues throughout the first floor.
Chaoran Zhi Quan calmly walked beside him.
Yang Lin then asked,
"What about the tenth floor?"
Chaoran Zhi Quan calmly answered,
"The tenth floor is for the main god."
"A fairy."
Yang Lin calmly looked toward her.
"Why is she the main god?"
Chaoran Zhi Quan calmly explained,
"She was once trapped in the Lower Realm."
"But then her Sprite came and saved Chen Ti Village when cultivators were fighting long ago."
Yang Lin calmly nodded.
"Oh."
The two then continued upward.
They went through the different floors.
Eventually—
they reached the tenth floor.
Yang Lin calmly looked around.
Only the first floor had people.
The other floors didn't have any god statues.
Instead—
there were ink paintings.
The paintings depicted gods.
Floating mountains.
Rivers.
Beautiful scenery.
Yang Lin and Chaoran Zhi Quan continued walking.
Finally—
they saw the God Fairy.
Unlike the normal statues—
this statue had a green glow surrounding it.
Yang Lin calmly looked toward it.
Then he asked,
"Why do people on the first floor want to come up here?"
Chaoran Zhi Quan calmly answered,
"People rarely come here."
"The gods they need daily blessings from are below."
Yang Lin calmly nodded.
"Oh."
They remained there for a while.
Then—
Yang Lin and Chaoran Zhi Quan began walking back down.

### Chapter 2509 — Returning From The Temple
Yang Lin and Chaoran Zhi Quan walked through the floors below.
They once again saw the ink paintings.
Gods.
Floating mountains.
Rivers.
The paintings filled the walls.
Yang Lin calmly looked at them.
The two eventually reached the first floor.
Yang Lin calmly looked around.
"There are still people here?"
Chaoran Zhi Quan calmly answered,
"Yeah."
There were still many people worshipping.
Some elderly people were praying.
Some middle-aged people were kneeling before the statues.
Some people were praying for wealth.
Others were praying for their families.
Yang Lin and Chaoran Zhi Quan calmly walked past them.
Nobody paid much attention to the two.
Eventually—
they walked out of the ten-floor pavilion.
Yang Lin calmly looked toward the temple one last time.
Then he and Chaoran Zhi Quan began walking back.
They had five light years to travel.
The peaceful journey continued.
The sky gradually changed.
Time slowly passed.
Eventually—
the earlier morning arrived.
Yang Lin and Chaoran Zhi Quan returned to the private courtyard.
Yang Lin calmly looked toward Grandpa Lu.
"We're back, Grandpa Lu."
Chaoran Zhi Quan smiled.
"Grandpa, I'm back."
Grandpa Lu was calmly sitting near the round table.
He looked toward the two.
"How was it?"
Yang Lin calmly answered,
"Good."
Chaoran Zhi Quan smiled.
"We went to the tenth floor."
Grandpa Lu calmly nodded.
"Good."
Chaoran Zhi Quan then looked toward the kitchen.
"I'm going to cook."
She walked toward the kitchen.
After some time—
she brought three bowls of rice.
There were some spiritual herbs on the side.
Chaoran Zhi Quan placed them on the round table.
"Enjoy."
Yang Lin calmly looked at the food.
"Well."
"Awesome."
Chaoran Zhi Quan smiled.
The three then calmly ate together.

### Chapter 2510 — Five Months
Five months passed by in an instant.
During those five months—
Yang Lin and Chaoran Zhi Quan went to see many places.
They explored beautiful mountains and rivers.
They saw waterfalls flowing down enormous cliffs.
They walked through different parts of the forest.
They climbed mountains.
They picked Immortal herbs.
They watched many sunsets.
They watched many sunrises.
Every day was peaceful.
There were no battles.
There were no Ancient Immortal factions.
There was no great danger.
Only the peaceful life of Chen Ti Village.
Yang Lin gradually became accustomed to this peaceful village.
Chaoran Zhi Quan also became increasingly close to him.
The two often traveled together.
Sometimes they walked through the forest.
Sometimes they climbed mountains.
Sometimes they simply sat together and watched the scenery.
The villagers noticed their closeness.
Whenever Yang Lin and Chaoran Zhi Quan walked through the village—
some villagers would smile.
Some would quietly look at them.
Some middle-aged women would whisper to one another.
Some old men would smile knowingly.
The villagers had completely gotten used to Yang Lin.
They had also gotten used to seeing Yang Lin and Chaoran Zhi Quan together.
Their relationship had become something the villagers enjoyed watching.
Yang Lin remained calm as always.
Chaoran Zhi Quan, however—
was much closer to him than before.

### Chapter 2511 — Lu Sun Mountain
One day—
Yang Lin and Chaoran Zhi Quan went to climb Lu Sun Mountain.
It was a rainy day.
Rain fell from the sky.
Mist covered the mountain.
Lu Sun Mountain was next to Chen Ti Village.
Chaoran Zhi Quan wanted to make a different kind of Immortal soup.
She had heard that some rare Immortal herbs grew on the mountain.
"Yang Lin."
"Let's look for some rare Immortal herbs."
"I want to make a different kind of Immortal soup."
Yang Lin calmly nodded.
"Alright."
The two continued climbing.
The mountain slope was wet because of the rain.
Chaoran Zhi Quan carefully searched around.
After some time on the mountain top—
she found a rare Immortal herb.
Her eyes brightened.
"There it is."
She carefully walked toward it.
Yang Lin calmly followed behind her.
Chaoran Zhi Quan reached toward the Immortal herb.
But suddenly—
her foot slipped.
Her body lost balance.
"Ah!"
She fell toward Yang Lin.
Yang Lin immediately caught her.
Chaoran Zhi Quan landed against him.
For a moment—
everything became silent.
Yang Lin calmly looked down.
Chaoran Zhi Quan slowly looked up.
Their eyes met.
Their faces were only a few centimeters apart.
The rain continued falling around them.
Chaoran Zhi Quan's beautiful face slowly turned red.
Her cheeks became flushed.
She quickly looked away.
Yang Lin calmly helped her stand.
"Be careful."
Chaoran Zhi Quan quietly answered,
"Thank you."
Yang Lin calmly nodded.
"No problem."
The two continued climbing.
However—
from that moment onward—
Chaoran Zhi Quan became even closer to Yang Lin.

### Chapter 2512 — The Villagers' Reactions
After the incident on Lu Sun Mountain—
Yang Lin and Chaoran Zhi Quan became even closer.
Chaoran Zhi Quan would often walk beside Yang Lin.
She would talk with him more frequently.
She would sometimes smile at him for no reason.
Yang Lin remained calm.
But he also smiled more often when he was with her.
The villagers naturally noticed.
When they saw the two walking together—
their expressions changed.
Some villagers smiled.
Some quietly whispered.
Some elderly villagers looked at them with amused expressions.
Some middle-aged women smiled brightly.
The Chen Ti Village had already become accustomed to Yang Lin.
And now—
they had also become accustomed to Yang Lin and Chaoran Zhi Quan being together.
The peaceful life continued.
Yang Lin and Chaoran Zhi Quan continued exploring the village.
They saw beautiful mountains.
They saw waterfalls.
They picked Immortal herbs.
They watched the stars.
They watched the sunrise.
They watched the sunset.
Five months passed peacefully.
For Yang Lin—
these days were quite interesting.
Cultivation was fun.
But peaceful days like these were also enjoyable.

### Chapter 2513 — Another Morning
Five months after Yang Lin entered Chen Ti Village—
another beautiful morning arrived.
The sun had just risen.
The sky was clear.
Yang Lin was calmly sitting on the bench near the kitchen.
He was watching Chaoran Zhi Quan cook.
Chaoran Zhi Quan's back was facing Yang Lin.
She was cooking rice with Immortal herbs and pork ribs.
Her movements were graceful.
Yang Lin calmly watched her.
No matter how he looked at her—
she was mesmerizing.
Chaoran Zhi Quan suddenly looked back.
"What are you looking at?"
Yang Lin calmly answered,
"Looking at a fairy."
Chaoran Zhi Quan froze.
Her ears immediately turned red.
Her cheeks flushed slightly.
Yang Lin calmly continued,
"I mean, I'm looking at the food you were cooking."
Chaoran Zhi Quan sweetly smiled.
"Oh, really?"
Yang Lin calmly answered,
"Yes."
Chaoran Zhi Quan then laughed sweetly.
Yang Lin calmly looked toward her.
"Why are you laughing?"
Chaoran Zhi Quan stopped laughing.
"Nothing."
"Nothing."
"I just remembered something."
Yang Lin calmly looked toward the early morning sun.
Then he stood up.
He calmly walked out of the kitchen.
He sat beside the round table.
Grandpa Lu was standing near a tree.
He looked toward Yang Lin.
"Yang Lin."
"I need to ask you a question."
Yang Lin calmly answered,
"What?"
Grandpa Lu calmly said,
"Come with me."
Yang Lin calmly stood up.
Then he followed Grandpa Lu toward the forest.
---
### Chapter 2514 — The Sound-Canceling Barrier
Yang Lin and Grandpa Lu went deep into the forest.
The further they went—
the quieter the surroundings became.
Eventually—
Grandpa Lu stopped.
He waved his hand.
A yellow sound-canceling barrier shrouded both Yang Lin and Grandpa Lu.
Yang Lin calmly looked at the barrier.
Before Grandpa Lu could say anything—
Yang Lin calmly spoke.
"You are a Transcendence Realm Late Stage Peak cultivator, right?"
Grandpa Lu's expression instantly changed.
He looked at Yang Lin in shock.
"Wait."
"How did you know, kid?"
Yang Lin calmly answered,
"I knew even before I entered the private courtyard back then."
Grandpa Lu was shocked again.
He stared at Yang Lin.
"Aren't you just an Immortal King Early Stage cultivator?"
Yang Lin calmly answered,
"I suppressed my cultivation."
"But you could notice because I wanted you to."
Grandpa Lu's expression became even more shocked.
Yang Lin calmly looked at him.
"But you didn't question me for five months."
"Why now?"
Grandpa Lu remained silent.
He looked at Yang Lin carefully.
Then he finally asked,
"Are you the mysterious Supreme genius of the Lower Realm?"
"Yang Lin."
"The Sect Leader of the mysterious Heaven Cutter Sect from the Central Domain?"
Yang Lin calmly looked toward him.
"You know?"
Grandpa Lu's eyes widened.
Yang Lin calmly continued,
"Not bad."
"You knew it from the moment I said my name back then five months ago."
Grandpa Lu was completely shocked.
He had already suspected Yang Lin.
But hearing Yang Lin confirm it—
was another matter entirely.

### Chapter 2515 — Chaoran Zhi Quan's Secret
Yang Lin calmly looked toward Grandpa Lu.
"I also know your granddaughter is a cultivator."
Grandpa Lu's expression immediately changed.
"She is at Heaven Immortal 10th Stage."
"You concealed her cultivation."
"You also blocked her memory to temper her."
Grandpa Lu's eyes widened.
His body trembled.
Then—
he fell to the ground in terror.
"How did you know all that?"
Yang Lin calmly answered,
"Since I met her more than five months ago, I knew."
Grandpa Lu remained on the ground for a moment.
Then he slowly got up.
His expression was filled with shock.
Yang Lin calmly said,
"Don't worry."
"I won't say anything."
Grandpa Lu looked toward Yang Lin.
Then he asked calmly,
"You and my granddaughter..."
"Are you two at that stage yet?"
Yang Lin calmly looked toward him.
"What?"
"No."
"We just know one another."
Grandpa Lu stared at Yang Lin.
"The way you look at each other..."
"You can't hide it."
Yang Lin calmly answered,
"We smile with one another more than usual."
"That's all."
Grandpa Lu didn't say anything.
He simply looked toward Yang Lin.
After a moment—
he waved his hand.
The yellow sound-canceling barrier vanished.
The forest became quiet again.
Grandpa Lu calmly turned around.
Then he began walking back toward Chen Ti Village.
Yang Lin calmly followed behind him.
---
### Chapter 2516 — The Peaceful Morning
Yang Lin and Grandpa Lu walked back into the private courtyard.
Grandpa Lu walked toward the tree.
He stopped there.
Then he looked toward the clear blue sky.
Yang Lin calmly walked toward the kitchen.
Chaoran Zhi Quan was still making food.
She was quietly cooking.
Yang Lin sat on the bench near the kitchen.
Chaoran Zhi Quan looked back.
"Where did you go?"
Yang Lin calmly answered,
"Nowhere."
"I just talked with Grandpa Lu."
Chaoran Zhi Quan nodded.
"Oh."
She continued cooking.
A faint smile appeared on her beautiful face.
She secretly hid her smile.
Then she slowly muttered,
"Idiot."
Yang Lin clearly heard it.
However—
he calmly ignored it.
Instead—
Yang Lin smiled at Chaoran Zhi Quan.
Chaoran Zhi Quan continued cooking.
The fragrance of rice, Immortal herbs, and pork ribs slowly spread through the kitchen.
Grandpa Lu remained beneath the tree.
He looked toward the clear blue sky.
The peaceful Chen Ti Village continued waking up.
The morning sunlight illuminated the private courtyard.
Yang Lin calmly watched Chaoran Zhi Quan cooking.
Chaoran Zhi Quan occasionally glanced back at him.
Their eyes met.
She quickly looked away.
Yang Lin calmly smiled.
The peaceful days of Chen Ti Village continued.
