Su Jiuli stepped out of the void, and Lin Wei, dressed in black, stood quietly not far away.

Su Jiuli bowed slightly: "Junior Su Jiuli greets Senior Lin Wei."

Lin Wei stepped aside and bowed in return, saying, "My lord, please don't be so polite to this junior."

Su Jiuli sighed: "Senior, I am just one of the millions of people who are being protected. I really cannot bear to be called 'Your Excellency' by such a title."

A relaxed smile flickered across Lin Wei's usually calm and composed eyes, and she stopped worrying about who was the senior.

"Senior, please take good care of my junior brothers and sisters."

Lin Wei nodded, but couldn't help asking, "Where are you going? Do you need any help?"

Su Jiuli smiled and said, "There are some things I can do by myself."

Lin Wei calmly observed the gentle and refined young man before her. Although she didn't fully understand what he was saying, she inexplicably felt that the young man was carrying a heavy burden.

Ye Sisi stayed in the Black Demon Abyss for three years, and she successfully broke through to the Nascent Soul stage, but she did not undergo the tribulation due to the limitations of the secret realm.

The spirits she had to face had changed from being scattered to being fully formed. Fortunately, the master here still had some conscience and didn't directly give her some peak-stage fully formed spirits, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to win no matter how hard she tried.

After observing for so long, she also discovered that the restrictions in this courtyard were artificially manipulated.

The initial distraction was probably a deliberate adjustment to take into account the limits of her abilities, likely intended to allow her to enhance her own strength while purifying the world-destroying power. It has to be said, the big boss behind her went to great lengths.

Through repeated observations, Ye Sisi also discovered that behind each small courtyard was another space. Whenever she purified a small courtyard, the small courtyard opposite her would disappear shortly afterward.

Although she didn't know how all this was done, she had a hunch that the people causing trouble on the other side were mostly her senior brothers.

Thinking about it this way, the monotonous and boring life of the past few years doesn't seem so hard to endure anymore.

There was only one small courtyard left in front of her. Once she completed the final task, she could leave.

A crisp knock was followed by the creaking sound of the gate opening, but this last courtyard was completely different from the ones they had encountered before.

First, there was that chubby little face peeking out from behind the door—a face that was all too familiar.

Ye Sisi was taken aback: "Little Fatty, what are you doing here? Where's Senior Brother?"

Little Fatty hugged his chubby arms, raised his chin arrogantly, and said, "You brat, it's been so long, haven't you missed me?"

Ye Sisi...

Looking at the arrogant little painting spirit in front of her, she couldn't help but laugh out loud. What, this little baby wants to learn the domineering CEO act!

"why are you laughing?"

Ye Sisi released Xiao Liuli directly and said with a smile, "Xiao Liuli, play with Xiao Pang for a while. He might need to work on his brain."

A cute little girl suddenly appeared beside the chubby boy. She rubbed his chubby little face and sighed, "It's only been a short time since you left us, how come you've become silly again?"

Little Fatty...

Ye Sisi ignored the chubby boy and stepped into the courtyard.

In the center of the courtyard was a stone table and four stone benches. In the very center of the stone table was Little Fatty's body, along with slowly dissipating ink and a cup of steaming tea.

Ye Sisi looked at the chubby boy and asked, "Tell me, what happened here?"

Little Fatty snorted coldly: "You want me to say it? I won't."

Before Ye Sisi could even show her bright smile, the small courtyard melted away like an oil painting.

The entire space was instantly reduced to nothingness, and Ye Sisi also saw Lin Shuangluo and Ye Shubai, whom she hadn't seen for a long time.

The three siblings reunited instantly, and the other two asked, "Junior Sister, are you alright? Are you hurt?"

One of them retorted, "Third Senior Brother, Fourth Senior Brother, why are there only you two? Where is Eldest Senior Brother?"

Lin Shuangluo clutched her chest, heartbroken, and said, "Junior Sister, is Senior Brother the only one in your eyes? I'm so sad."

Ye Sisi couldn't help but smile, blinking as she said, "Third Senior Brother, you seem to have lost weight. You must have suffered a lot these past few days. I'm so worried about you..."

Lin Shuangluo's composure completely crumbled, and she raised her hand, saying, "Stop, stop, stop, junior sister, don't do this, I'm scared."

Ye Sisi's expression changed instantly, and she said resentfully, "Fourth Senior Brother, Third Senior Brother bullied me."

As the three chatted and laughed, soft golden light spots slowly floated out of the void. The three people and two spirits present were very familiar with those light spots; they were countless merits.

As the merit points accumulated, more and more, and gradually, a towering golden Bodhi tree emerged from nothingness.

Ye Sisi looked at the plump and round Bodhi seeds and swallowed hard, wanting to eat them.

As if sensing her thoughts, the massive Bodhi tree trembled, and handfuls of Bodhi seeds fell to the ground. Ye Sisi's eyes widened. If she were still in the tree, she might have considered picking them directly, but now that they were all fallen, she felt guilty if she didn't collect them and take them home.

As Ye Sisi put the fallen Bodhi seeds back into the jade box, she would occasionally pop a couple into her mouth. After working so hard for so long, it wasn't too much to eat such a little bit, was it? Well, not at all.

Once the Bodhi of Merit has fully taken shape, the remaining cold, white space gradually dissolves.

Ye Sisi felt the surrounding space fluctuating violently; it was time for them to leave.

They quickly grabbed Little Fatty and then hurriedly grabbed the two senior brothers.

What she hates most is being teleported, which separates her family. Now that she only has these two left, she has to keep a close eye on them.

As if sensing Ye Sisi's slight unease, Ye Shubai reached out and patted her head: "Don't worry, your senior brothers are always here for you."

Ye Sisi smiled brightly, and as her smile fully blossomed, the three figures vanished into nothingness.

As soon as they sensed the presence of the outside world, the three of them looked up at the sky.

The raging might of heaven rolled in, many times more intense than during the Heavenly Tribulation of the Out-of-Body stage.

It seems like all three of them were distracted. But is the Heavenly Dao trying to use this to kill them? It's so powerful, it's really despicable.

Just then, the space around the three of them fluctuated again, and the powerful spatial laws threw them out in three different directions.
