UGB Chapter 239 Reunion
Chapter 239 Reunion
The wind at the canyon entrance gradually became fierce.
Wei Yu remained hidden behind the towering tree, his gaze fixed on the two figures at the canyon entrance, his mind racing.
The young man, dressed in a blue Taoist robe, stood tall and straight, with a hint of aloofness in his eyes. He was the transmigrator he sensed, the one with a fragment of his soul attached to him.
Beside Xuan Qing, a girl in a pink dress, with delicate features and a somewhat childlike face, stood close to the girl.
Wei Yu quietly activated the Sentinel's power, and a faint fluctuation of divine soul energy spread out, carefully probing the cultivation levels of the two.
After a moment, he had a better understanding of the situation.
The young man, at the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm, possessed a refined aura and a steady flow of spiritual energy, demonstrating a very solid foundation.
The girl, on the other hand, was slightly weaker, at the early stage of the Golden Core Realm. Her spiritual energy fluctuations were lively, but she still carried a hint of immaturity.
Both of them were at the Golden Core stage, roughly the same level as him, or even slightly inferior.
Wei Yu's concerns vanished almost instantly.
Previously, he had not dared to show himself rashly, firstly because he was afraid that it was another illusion trap set by the hunters, and secondly because he was unsure of the identities and strength of the two people, and was afraid that if he showed himself rashly, he would be put at a disadvantage.
But now, he could clearly sense that the two of them had no dark aura at all, but instead possessed the same soul fluctuations as him, belonging to Earth transmigrators.
Moreover, the two individuals' cultivation levels were simply insufficient to pose a threat to him.
More importantly, the boy possesses the fragments of the soul he desperately needs.
If we miss this chance, who knows when we'll be able to find another fragment of the soul.
The crisis on Earth is drawing ever closer. He has no time to hesitate any longer, nor can he continue to hide and observe.
Wei Yu took a deep breath.
No matter what, this time, he was determined to go out and reunite with Xuanqing.
Not only do they need to retrieve their own soul fragments, but they also need to figure out the situation of the two. Perhaps they are also hiding from hunters, or perhaps they can even travel together to find other transmigrators and prepare for returning home and protecting the Earth.
Having made up his mind, Wei Yu no longer hid it.
He slowly withdrew his homecoming power, leaving only a faint trace of the transmigrator's soul fluctuations, to avoid being too conspicuous and causing unnecessary panic to the two.
Then, he slowly emerged from behind the tree, his steps light and as quiet as possible.
"rustle--"
The subtle sound of leaves rustling against each other was exceptionally clear at the entrance to the silent canyon.
Xuan Qing and Han Xuanxuan, who were talking in hushed tones, immediately stopped talking.
The two turned their heads almost simultaneously, their eyes instantly sharpening as they locked onto Wei Yu's figure.
The boy (Xuan Qing) reacted extremely quickly. Instinctively, he shielded (Han Xuanxuan) behind him, his spiritual energy surging instantly. He unleashed the full power of a mid-stage Golden Core cultivator, his tone icy and filled with intense vigilance: "Who?! Show yourself!"
Han Xuanxuan also tensed up instantly, hiding behind Xuan Qing, her small hands tightly gripping Xuan Qing's sleeve, her bright eyes full of vigilance, yet she still couldn't help but peek out, curiously and warily observing Wei Yu.
A wisp of spiritual energy quietly gathered around her, though faint, it was enough to prepare her for battle at any moment.
Clearly, the two had long since developed a habit of being highly vigilant in these treacherous mountains.
The sudden appearance of strangers put them on high alert instantly.
Wei Yu stopped and did not approach any further, maintaining a safe distance of about ten meters from the two. He wore a gentle smile and tried his best to make his tone sincere so as not to provoke them.
"Please don't be nervous," Wei Yu said slowly, his voice gentle and steady. "I have no ill intentions. I just happened to be passing by and saw you two."
His explanation, however, did not put Xuanqing and Han Xuanxuan at ease.
Xuan Qing frowned deeply, his eyes still sharp as he stared intently at Wei Yu, and questioned in a deep voice, "Just passing by? This deep mountain valley is rarely visited by people, how could such a coincidence happen?"
He could sense that Wei Yu's aura, though seemingly gentle, was extremely refined, and subtly, seemed to be even more powerful than his own.
Moreover, he always felt that there was something wrong with the way the man in front of him looked at him, as if he was searching for something, or as if he was confirming something.
Han Xuanxuan nodded in agreement, speaking softly with a hint of timidity in her voice, yet still wary: "Exactly! Senior brother is right. Who exactly are you? Were you sent by the hunters?"
The mention of the word "hunters" made Han Xuanxuan tremble slightly, clearly indicating her deep fear of them.
Xuanqing's gaze also became more serious.
These days, they have been evading the hunters' pursuit, wandering from place to place, not daring to be careless in the slightest, and not knowing when they will be able to return to the sect.
Encountering a powerful stranger at this moment is bound to cause some overthinking.
Wei Yu understood what was going on when he saw the two men's wary expressions.
He knew that in the myriad worlds where hunters roamed, it would not be easy to get two unfamiliar transmigrators to lower their guard.
To successfully reunite with his family and retrieve the fragments of his soul, he must demonstrate sufficient sincerity and prove his identity.
I just don't know why the girl doesn't have any fragments of her own soul.
Wei Yu slowly raised his hand to indicate that he meant no harm. Then, he deliberately released the fluctuations of his divine soul. The warm and familiar fluctuations that belonged to Earth transmigrators slowly spread out and enveloped Xuan Qing and Han Xuanxuan.
"I know what you're afraid of," Wei Yu's tone became increasingly sincere. "I'm just like you; I also came from Earth. My name is Wei Yu."
He deliberately emphasized the words "traveled from Earth," staring intently at Xuan Qing, observing his reaction.
Xuan Qing shuddered, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes, and his hand holding the spiritual energy loosened slightly.
He could clearly sense that the spiritual fluctuations emanating from Wei Yu were of the same origin as those from his own and Han Xuanxuan's!
That warm ripple was something that hunters could never possess.
Even so, he still did not completely let his guard down.
The hunters' methods were too bizarre; they were skilled at disguise. No one knew whether the man in front of them was deliberately disguising himself as a time traveler to lure them into their trap.
Xuan Qing took a deep breath, suppressing his surprise. His gaze remained serious as he asked Wei Yu in a deep voice, "You say you're also a time traveler. What proof do you have?"
Han Xuanxuan also peeked out from behind Xuan Qing, her wariness lessened and replaced by curiosity as she stared intently at Wei Yu, waiting for his answer.
Wei Yu smiled slightly as he looked at the two men.
He knew that as long as he produced evidence to prove his identity, the two would lower their guard.
He had already prepared things to prove his identity.
Wei Yu slowly raised his fingertips, and a wisp of golden-white light quietly gathered at his fingertips—that was the power of homecoming, a power that only transmigrators blessed by the will of Earth could possess.
"You should be able to feel this power, right?" Wei Yu said softly, his tone carrying a hint of certainty. "Only those who have wandered from Earth can possess the power of returning home, blessed by the will of their mother planet."
The golden-white light, radiating a warm aura, slowly spread and enveloped the entire canyon entrance.
Xuan Qing and Han Xuanxuan felt that warm power, and their bodies trembled at the same time. The wariness in their eyes instantly dissipated.
This power is warm and pure, carrying a sense of familiarity etched deep in the soul, something that cannot be faked.
Xuan Qing slowly withdrew the spiritual energy around him, his gaze softening considerably. His look towards Wei Yu became more inquisitive and less wary: "This is indeed... the power of homecoming?"
He had seen records of the power of homecoming in ancient books and knew that it was an exclusive power of Earth transmigrators, which outsiders could not imitate.
Han Xuanxuan completely lowered her guard and stepped out from behind Xuan Qing. She skipped over to Xuan Qing's side, winked at Wei Yu, and asked curiously, "Brother Wei Yu, are you really from Earth too? What are you doing here?"
Wei Yu breathed a sigh of relief as he watched the two gradually relax.
It seems that the reunion is already halfway done.
He smiled and nodded, then slowly said, "That's right, I'm also from Earth. I came here to find something, and... to find other wanderers like me, drifting through the myriad worlds."
After saying that, his gaze unconsciously fell on Xuan Qing, his eyes carrying a hint of barely perceptible urgency—a longing for the fragments of the soul.
Xuan Qing was incredibly perceptive and instantly noticed Wei Yu's gaze. He raised an eyebrow slightly, a hint of doubt flashing through his mind.
What's going on with Wei Yu's eyes?
What is it about him that Wei Yu wants?
