"No matter what, I must get my master to accept her," Sui Xin thought happily, and couldn't help but look forward to playing together in the future.

Not long after

"Hmm?" The little cutie in my arms slowly opened her eyes and looked at Sui Xin staring at her.

There was silence between them for a long time.

"Hey, you're awake. How did you fall from the sky?" Sui Xin asked shyly in a low voice.

The little girl blinked her big eyes. "Hmm? Haven't we met somewhere before?"

"No way, I just saw you today."

"By the way, what's your name? And where are your parents?"

"My name is Xiyun. I don't remember anything from before, and I don't remember my parents either. I'm probably... an orphan," a soft, sweet voice said, sounding somewhat lost.

Recalling the past, two clear tears fell from the girl's long eyelashes.

Let's just forget about that past.

He thought it to himself, but ultimately didn't say it aloud.

"Little sister, don't cry." Sui Xin panicked a little, thinking she had touched a sore spot, and gently wiped away the girl's tears.

"Hmm," Xi Yun didn't say much and lay quietly.

......

"Sui Xin, what happened?" Two figures floated down from the sky, and Lin Ling's voice came.

Sui Xin bowed slightly to the two figures and addressed them as "Third Master".

He recounted what had just happened, and Qi Yuan, who was standing next to him, nodded from time to time.

The Third Elder asked the girl some other questions, but her answers were either that she didn't remember or that she didn't know. Gradually, he lost interest and said, "Then I'll leave this matter to you."

Seeing his third uncle fly away, Sui Xin immediately said, "Master, why don't we take Xi Yun in?"

"Hehe, that's exactly what I was thinking too," Lin Miao had been wondering if Sui Xin would be lonely by herself, but then heaven sent her such a cute little girl, and she couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Ninth Junior Sister, I..."

"Senior brother, you're not going to try and take it from me, are you?" Lin Miao interrupted instinctively when she heard Qi Yuan speak.

"Junior sister is too kind. I'll be going now if there's nothing else," she said, disappearing from sight.

“Come here, little cutie Xiyun, let your master give you a hug,” Lin Miao’s eyes lit up.

"No," the girl said, a little scared, clutching tightly to Sui Xin's collar.

"Master, don't be in such a hurry. She doesn't even know you. Don't scare her. Besides, I haven't hugged her enough yet," Sui Xin slowly left Lin Miao's side.

Lin Ling also became interested, thinking of teasing Sui Xin, "You little rascal, you were so well-behaved before, but you've become so bold when you see a little girl. You wouldn't happen to have a crush on her, would you?"

“…Master, please don’t talk nonsense,” Sui Xin said softly, blushing slightly.

"Alright, I'll stop teasing you. Let's go back for lunch." With that, he conjured a ball of light that encircled the two children, and together they flew towards Little Medicine Peak.

"We've arrived. This is my main hall. You'll cultivate here from now on. Please go and sit over there. I'll go prepare some food for you."

Leaving the two of them in the empty main hall, Lin Miao walked towards the side hall.

"You can put me down now," Xi Yun whispered. She had been worried that Sui Xin would get tired inside the light sphere, so she said that.

Unfortunately, Suixin said it was too dangerous up there and he was afraid something might happen to her, so he refused to let her down.

"Oh, okay."

He slowly put the girl down.

"Ah!" Xi Yun cried out as soon as her feet touched the ground, then fell to the side. Fortunately, Sui Xin reacted quickly and caught her.

"This is..." Sui Xin was somewhat surprised as she looked at Xi Yun's exposed calves.

Her fair and slender calves were covered with bluish-purple bruises.

Looking at Xi Yun, who was trembling slightly, Sui Xin casually touched her exposed calf with her small hand.

With a hint of envy, he said in a low voice, "Which bastard did this?"

"It's okay, I'm not in pain," Xi Yun comforted Sui Xin, holding her hand as she looked at her reddening eyes, before pulling down her skirt to cover her calves.

"How could it not hurt? I can't even stand up," Sui Xin said softly, looking into Xi Yun's eyes.

"I'll get used to it, it'll be fine in a couple of days," Xi Yun said subconsciously, then stretched out her arms to signal Sui Xin to pick her up.

"I'm used to it... From now on, I'll protect you. If anyone dares to bully you, I'll beat them to death," Sui Xin said softly, feeling a pang of heartache. She wondered how Xi Yun had managed before. She carefully picked up Xi Yun and spoke slowly.

Xi Yun was slightly taken aback, then nodded gently, feeling the warmth in front of her.

Although I've never seen it before, it feels familiar.

About fifteen minutes later, Lin Ling placed two medium-sized bowls on the table in the side hall and slowly walked over.

"Why are you still hugging me? Do you really like your junior sister that much?" Lin Miao laughed.

Sui Xin said to Lin Ling with a sense of loss, "Xiao Yun'er is injured and can't stand up."

"Huh? Let me see," Lin Ling took Xi Yun, her brows furrowing slightly.

Just now, Suixin told Xiyun some things about his master, and now he is no longer afraid of Lin Miao.

"It's not a big problem, it's just a pity for this child, having to suffer like this at such a young age. Perhaps forgetting the past is a different kind of relief," Lin Miao patted Xi Yun's head, looked at her bruised and battered legs, and cast a few healing spells.

Lin Ling put Xi Yun down. "Let's see if we can walk."

Xi Yun stood on the ground, jumped a few times, and said shyly, "It doesn't hurt anymore, thank you."

"From now on, you two are my disciples. There's no need for thanks. Calling me 'Master' is better than anything else," Lin Miao said, looking at the cute little girl in front of her.

Xi Yun was a little shy and whispered, "Master...Master."

"Hey, good children, come on, come and eat," Lin Ling said, leading the two children by the hand to the table in the side room.
