Chapter 594: Chapter 111 Yin Yang Balance._2

She has always been generous, arranging wives and concubines for Gu Wen, as long as their cultivation is low, having countless beauties doesn’t matter.

Before reaching the Mahayana Realm, even becoming a Demi Immortal, they are not a concern.

To speak blasphemously, even if Yu Hua is still around, she is one of the enemies. Relationships cannot be balanced by proximity or intimacy, regardless of identity differences.

Some people love beauties over kingdoms, others view brothers as their own flesh and blood.

Does Elder Sister Yu Hua have the camaraderie I share with Gu Wen?

But Hee Huan does!

This person must not be left alive.

Gu Wen closed his gaping jaw, was silent for a long while, then coughed lightly and said, "Mr. Hee, how did you become like this?"

This isn’t becoming a Heavenly Person, but a woman.

He didn’t dare use Divine Thought to probe, yet Hee Huan’s chest was obviously bulging; can it be possible he stuffed two buns in?

Hee Huan blushingly said, "Cultivation Technique caused this, it’s somewhat hard to talk about, Brother Gu is uncomfortable?"

Gu Wen frowned and said impatiently, "You’re so effeminate; although your flesh body is genuinely female, I recognize you as male. How can I be comfortable with it?"

"This too is due to the Cultivation Technique; currently, my body and mind are indeed female. But Brother Gu rest assured, it will revert next month."

"Revert?"

Gu Wen’s eyes narrowed as he examined Hee Huan’s body, through the skin he could see a strand of yang qi growing in the Qi Sea, while yin qi was receding.

Hee Huan explained, "Back then, the situation was urgent, outside there was a Demon War, inside the sect waged war against the aberrant. To protect myself, I could only take a dangerous move, using the sect’s Divine Skills to separate Yin and Yang. Odd months are yang, even months are yin, currently an odd month."

"Later dual cultivation consumed too much Primordial Yang, some overspending, momentarily hard to revert back. But these are minor problems; whether male or female is not important, what’s important is that Brother Gu is still alive!"

Before finishing his words, Hee Huan stepped forward two more steps, a subtle fragrance wafted over, his beautiful face full of longing.

Times differ, not to mention different worlds.

In today’s world, it’s common for men to shed tears upon reunion or farewell.

"That year we met, I thought we’d be separated eternally as Heavenly Persons, yet didn’t expect to see Brother Gu again..."

Gu Wen finally couldn’t hold back, with a flick of his sleeve, the beauty instantly flew out, landing with a thud on the opposite mountain.

The mountain gate shook, True Monarch checked.

The next day.

Hee Huan awoke from unconsciousness, and his voice was male when he spoke.

"Damn it, after so long apart you give me a big slap!"

He sat up, his waiting wife’s face was dull, then she joyfully said, "Husband! You’ve returned to your male form!"

These words made Hee Huan immediately reach down.

-----------------

Hee Huan came again, still dressed in a blue robe, but had returned to his male form, walking with a dragon’s stride and a tiger’s gait.

Before the person had crossed the threshold, a loud voice had already sounded:

"Brother Gu! I’ve missed you so much!"

He entered the room, cupped his hands in salute, his handsome face full of pride saying: "Eight hundred years without meeting, not failing Brother Gu’s words from back then, Hee Huan, Mahayana Realm, has become a Venerable!"

Each word firm and resolute, proud and bold.

Gu Wen held his hands together, feeling much at ease within, this is indeed Hee Huan.

He stood up and returned the greeting, "Gu Wen, now just a free wanderer."

The two exchanged formalities, candlelight refracted the illusion from eight hundred years ago.

A moment later, after some idle chat and greetings, the relationship instantly drew closer, no longer as awkward as in the beginning.

Gu Wen was curious how Hee Huan had fared over the years, while Hee Huan was curious how Gu Wen had emerged.

But Hee Huan was very emotionally intelligent, unlike others, who would mention Yu Hua straight away upon opening their mouths.

Hee Huan curiously asked, "Back then, I heard Brother Gu had already become an Immortal, I wonder if it’s true?"

Gu Wen instinctively wanted to reveal his aura, then realized what’s the use of a Saint’s aura; even if there is, the other side won’t detect it.

He nodded and replied, "Back then, I luckily ascended to Immortal, now I luckily became a Saint."

"Saint?"

Hee Huan’s face full of confusion.

Gu Wen said, "Above Immortal, the ultimate Great Tao can attain sainthood."

Above Immortal?

Hee Huan wore an expression of astonishment, struggling to comprehend the meaning of those words for a long time.

After much contemplation, he believed it should mean someone more powerful than an Immortal. The friendships he had once forged might now be yielding a return a thousand times over.

He should have been very happy, yet after having imagined this moment countless times, he found himself surprisingly calm.

"As long as you’re alive, it’s good."

Hee Huan’s smile was sincere, without a hint of flattery.

A true friend cares not about Gu Wen’s strength, but whether he is alive. The initial utilitarian intent faded as they weathered the years together.

Power and wealth, they had no lack of.

Gu Wen smiled and said, "Your wife begged me for immortality. Does Mr. Hee not seek the Immortal Ascension Opportunity?"

"My wife was rude, I must ask Brother Gu to overlook it many times."

Hee Huan first apologized, then answered, "Cultivation is originally for self-perfection, can immortality be sought? Moreover, with Brother Gu’s skill, I fear it would be given without my asking."

The last sentence carried a hint of jest, and Gu Wen couldn’t suppress a laugh.

In terms of friendship, Chi Yu Zi undoubtedly shared the deepest bond with Gu Wen.

A comrade through life and death battles, a bond men find hardest to sever. Countless times, Chi Yu Zi saved Gu Wen from suffering, so much so that he couldn’t tally the number of times.

In a fighting duel, one could end up skinned alive at worst, or killed on the spot at worst.

If it weren’t for Chi Yu Zi’s protective golden light back then, Gu Wen would have likely been left covered in scars, disability being highly probable.

Especially when hunted by all sides, avoiding injury was crucial.

Then there was Jun Yan, who also went through life and death together, but being rather utilitarian, was outshone by Chi Yu Zi.

Following down the line was Xiao Yunyi, whose guidance on cultivation was appreciated by Gu Wen, but if only he weren’t so obsessed with swords.

Lastly, it came to Hee Huan, and the reason was simple: his talents could not keep pace with the first tier, and naturally, he wasn’t involved in Gu Wen’s affairs.

Less time spent together meant the friendship would lag behind.

Yet Hee Huan held a special place among Gu Wen’s many friends, in some respects, second only to Yu Hua.

Because both had shown kindness in discovering and nurturing him during his weakest times, giving immense help.

Giving someone a piece of bread when they’re about to starve is an act of grace; sharing a piece of bread when hungry is brotherhood; when well-off, bread is no longer needed.

Gu Wen was someone who had perpetually hovered on the edge of life and death, valuing aid in times of need exceptionally.

"I’ve suppressed the issue with your body temporarily, but it’s a temporary solution, not a permanent fix."

Gu Wen showed concern for Hee Huan’s health issues.

Hee Huan smiled wryly and said, "Over the years, I’ve been trying to find a solution, but the Yin Yang Dual Qi in my body has always been hard to balance. Extreme Yang and Yin wanes, Extreme Yin and Yang wanes, in an endless cycle."

Being both male and female violates nature, even great power experts are very wary of altering bony shapes for beauty or ugliness, let alone gender.

If unresolved, he could never progress further in this life, and risked going mad, unable to discern if he was male or female.

"I sought help from Qingcang Immortal for this issue; she said she could only completely turn me into a woman, hence the previous state."

"Why?"

"I don’t know, the Immortal didn’t clarify, only saying harmonizing Yin and Yang is like ascending to heaven."

Hee Huan shook his head, and Gu Wen didn’t dwell on it, sending a wisp of thought toward Three Pure Mountain.

Only an Immortal can comprehend the universe in one thought, Gu Wen naturally could as well.

Far away at Three Pure Mountain, a plain-clothed female Daoist sat in meditation, noticing a familiar aura, she opened her eyes to see only a Divine Thought, visibly displeased.

No need, treat the Master as if deceased.

For about thirty minutes.

Gu Wen returned to the present, apologetically saying, "My Master found it troublesome, having no time and energy to guide your Yin Yang balance little by little."

Hee Huan held no resentment, shaking his head, "In times of both internal and external distress, an Immortal granting aid is already a divine favor."

Having no connection with an Immortal nor being their disciple, why would he receive any favoritism?

"My Master did provide a solution, but it requires too much time, at least a hundred years of effort."

Gu Wen stood and waved his sleeve, changing the day in the blink of an eye, watching as Hee Huan saw a blazing sun slowly descend from the sky.

In the Inheritance Treasure Cave Heaven, it was currently at Extreme Yang.

He intended to inquire about the Yin Yang Path, to address the issue of the Cave Heaven’s Extreme Yang and Extreme Yin.

Just as Xiao Yunyi far outstripped him in swordsmanship, Hee Huan’s insights on Yin Yang balance were the same.

"This Grotto Heaven matches your situation, let’s see if we can kill two birds with one stone. Solve your problem, and let the Cave Heaven advance further."
