As soon as Bai Luochen pushed open the door, he found his master and the foul-mouthed Zang Tou squatting at the entrance of his courtyard. He was stunned for a moment, and then his face turned red.

This feels like a parent comforting a child throwing a tantrum; he's really not used to this.

The key point is, he's not really a child. Even if you don't count the years he spent sleeping in the world of immortality, he's almost twenty years old, which really makes him embarrassed.

Upon seeing Bai Luochen emerge, the hidden man immediately stood up and said sincerely, "I'm sorry, I was wrong, you can hit me."

After speaking, he bowed deeply to Bai Luochen in a very proper manner.

Bai Luochen was the type of person who didn't take things to heart, so after being angry for a while, he was fine with it. He said with disdain, "Alright, alright, I'll forgive you this time, but I'll still be angry if there's a next time."

After saying that, he didn't look at Zangtou anymore, but instead looked at Meng Tianyuan with a somewhat evasive gaze, "Master, what brings you here?"

Meng Tianyuan opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything. He thought for a long time, but when he saw Bai Luochen, he couldn't say a single word. Sigh, being a master is much harder than cultivating.

Bai Luochen saw his usually decisive and even a little crazy master gently pat his shoulder, his straight back slightly slumped, as if he had suddenly aged decades.

This made Bai Luochen even more flustered. His master was considered young among cultivators, and he looked to be only in his twenties. As long as he didn't speak or fight, he looked very refined and handsome.

Moreover, ever since he joined the Heavenly Spirit Sect, even when his master was injured in a fight, he had never seen his back bend even slightly.

Ugh, it must be because he's so disobedient and made his master worry. He shouldn't be so willful. They're all doing this for his own good.

As Bai Luochen thought about it, he glared at Zangtou again. Zangtou was already a demon beast in the Tribulation Transcending stage, so why did he keep complaining? If it weren't for this guy's talkativeness, he would have been fine on his own for a while. His master was still focused on cultivation, so why would he be bothered by these things?

But he only dared to glare at his master, who was quite timid in front of him, just like Ye Sisi, who both respected and feared him.

Although Meng Tianyuan probably won't fight them anymore, a master is a master. "A teacher for a day is a father for life" is not just a saying. In the cultivation world, the relationship between master and disciple is no less than that between father and son.

Seeing Bai Luochen's unease, Meng Tianyuan thought for a moment and then said, "Little Five..."

Bai Luochen's body trembled involuntarily, and he quickly interrupted Meng Tianyuan, "Master, don't say anything, your disciple understands. I already know where the problem lies. It's because my strength is not enough. As long as I am strong enough, I will not be in danger anywhere. So I will go to the Spirit Pearl Secret Realm to seize the time to cultivate."

Meng Tianyuan...

What else could he say? Oh well, let it be. As long as Xiao Wu can figure it out himself, he won't say anything if he doesn't want to.

The master and disciple went to the Spirit Pearl Secret Realm together. The Spirit Pearl Secret Realm now belonged to the Heavenly Spirit Sect. In the past few days, many disciples have broken through to new heights, which is one of the reasons why people with spiritual roots want to join a major sect.

After all, without some strength, one simply cannot defend such a secret realm, and often cannot even protect one's own disciples.

Bai Luochen was taken directly to Ouyang Yanyu and the others. He looked around and asked in confusion, "Where is Junior Sister?"

Meng Tianyuan explained Ye Sisi's current situation to him, and Bai Luochen said "oh" and then took out the gifts he had bought for everyone.

Since his junior sister is busy now, he'll give it to her when she's free. Anyway, the flow of time here is different from the outside world. After she finishes absorbing the core essence, she'll have about two months of free time. He couldn't help but marvel at how the Time Secret Realm was truly a cultivation holy land that cultivators dreamed of.

"I bought these with my own money, Second Senior Sister, do you like them?"

Bai Luochen distributed the things he bought for everyone, and then looked at Ouyang Yanyu. He bought Ouyang Yanyu a red hairband. He still felt that his second senior sister was too plain, dressed entirely in white.

It doesn't matter whether other people like it or not. They're all grown men, so there's no need to be so particular. As for his master's wife, his master can praise her, so he's not needed. And since his junior sister isn't here, he can only ask his second senior sister.

Ouyang Yanyu looked at the hairband in her hand and nodded: "I like it."

But she had no intention of wearing it. The color didn't suit her at all. She always felt that a white dress paired with a bright red headband would look out of place. It would be better if she wore red, but she didn't like wearing red. It was too flamboyant, and she wasn't used to it.

Bai Luochen accepted it with a smile and immediately wanted to put it on his senior sister's list. If she liked it, that was fine. Naturally, everyone should see what she liked.

Ouyang Yanyu...

Oh well, that's just how my junior brother is. Let him wear it, she can't see it anyway. At least it's his kind gesture.

Bai Luochen skillfully tied up Ouyang Yanyu's ink-black long hair, then nodded in satisfaction. He had thought so; his second senior sister looked too plain and should have some vibrant colors added.

Don't ask him why he tied his hair up, because he does it himself, so it's just a basic thing.

Others don't get this treatment, since there's only one flower here. Ye Sisi isn't here, and Xiao Nianxue has gone to another secret realm.

Ouyang Yanyu smiled and touched her hair, then asked curiously, "Junior Brother, what did you buy for Senior Brother and Junior Sister?"

Ye Shubai and Lin Shuangluo looked over upon hearing this, and even the usually languid and alluring woman perked up her ears.

Bai Luochen smiled mysteriously, "That's a secret," and then went to sit down and meditate. He needed to get stronger as soon as possible.

The more Su Jiuli and Xiao Linjun fought, the more curious Su Jiuli became. He had sensed something was wrong with this person's soul before, and after fighting for so long, he was certain that this person seemed to have split his own soul. One part had gone astray, causing his mind to become chaotic, while the other part, although weaker, was very clear-headed.

Moreover, this person was shrouded in deathly aura, and judging from her bone age, she was indeed quite old, having lived for at least 20,000 years. However, cultivators undergoing tribulation have long lifespans, and perhaps the reason she hasn't ascended after living so long is because when she reached the point of ascension, she found that the ascension platform and the path to heaven were gone, or perhaps it was for some other reason.

He wasn't particularly interested in those things; what interested him was this person's soul. His intuition told him that figuring out the reason for this person's soul separation would be beneficial to Ye Sisi's situation.

There's no way around it; there aren't many things in this world that he can't understand, and maybe he really will gain something extra.
