Filled with resentment, Bai Di stared intently in the direction Bai Ying had left, clenched his fist, and slammed it into the ground with all his might.
Her face was contorted with rage, her features scrunched up, as if she wanted to devour Bai Ying alive.
Just then, someone next to her said:
"Xiao Di, there are many powerful people gathered here. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to make friends. We must hurry up and get to know some of them."
The cultivators beside Bai Di had also recovered from their earlier shock.
Excitement gleamed in their eyes.
In that small town of Qingyan, they usually only came into contact with people of mediocre cultivation. How could they have ever had the opportunity to live in the same place with so many powerful beings?
For them, such an opportunity was a golden chance to rise to the top.
As they spoke, they eagerly reached out and grabbed Bai Di's arms, one on each side, trying to help her up.
When Bai Di was in Qingyan Town, he became the focus of everyone's attention due to his amazing cultivation speed.
Various sects extended olive branches to her, doing everything they could to win her over. Over time, Bai Di became accustomed to being fawned over, and a sense of superiority gradually grew within her.
At this moment, Bai Di took a deep breath and quickly adjusted his state. They were right. There were so many powerful figures here; perhaps one of them would break through and become a Nascent Soul cultivator like that old man.
She really should befriend someone like that.
Bai Di broke free from the support of the cultivators, raised his hand to tidy his slightly messy hair, gently shook off the dust from his body, and neatly arranged his clothes.
Then, she slightly raised her chin, a perfectly timed smile curving her lips as she looked at the many Nascent Soul and Void Refinement stage cultivators around her.
Each powerful being here could become a strong ally on her future cultivation path. If she could gain the favor of one of them, be accepted as a disciple, or be given precious cultivation resources, her future path would be much smoother, and she might even leap to become a top figure in the cultivation world.
Bai Di couldn't wait and strode quickly toward where those powerful beings were.
She moved gracefully and bowed to them.
"Hello, seniors."
Bai Di did not take the initiative to introduce herself. In her mind, she was already well-known among the younger generation. These knowledgeable cultivators must have heard of her name, so why bother?
However, those powerful figures were either gathered in twos and threes, whispering among themselves, or lost in thought about the terrifying strength the old man had just displayed. They didn't even spare a glance for Bai Di.
In the world of cultivation, strength is paramount. Without sufficient strength to back you up, even if you go up to say hello, you'll only be asking for trouble.
Bai Di might be highly sought after among cultivators of lower cultivation levels, but in front of these Nascent Soul and Void Refinement stage experts, she was nothing more than an unknown figure. Her sudden appearance and greetings would naturally fail to arouse their interest. In fact, if she annoyed them, they might simply kill her.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, Bai Ying's expression instantly became somewhat awkward. But then she heard them talking about Bai Ying with great interest.
"That old man is truly remarkable! I really hope to have the opportunity to get to know him."
"Yes, yes! Did you see that just now? He was very attentive to the girl next to him. Do you know who she is?"
“I know! She is Bai Ying, the one who killed more than thirty Nascent Soul stage cultivators, from the Lingyin Sect.”
"So it was her! No wonder she could withstand an attack from a Void Refinement stage cultivator. She's so young, yet she's already at the Nascent Soul stage, and her strength is so formidable. Her talent must be extraordinary, no wonder that old man took a liking to her."
These people clearly intended to go to the Lingyin Sect to get to know Bai Ying. By getting to know Bai Ying, they could naturally also get to know the old man through her.
"Luckily we didn't try to steal the Chaos Spirit Fruit. I absolutely must get to know Bai Ying."
Hearing these people discussing Bai Ying, Bai Di's face darkened considerably.
She thought that as long as she appeared, she could shine in front of these powerful people and gain everyone's attention. But the reality was that they actually took the initiative to discuss getting to know Bai Ying, which was a great humiliation for her.
Why are their eyes full of white light?
Fortunately, someone recognized Bai Di.
"Isn't that Bai Di?" a voice came from the crowd.
Upon hearing this, Bai Di's eyes lit up instantly, and the spark of hope rekindled in her previously dim gaze. A joyful smile quickly appeared on her face, and she even unconsciously straightened her posture a bit.
It seems she is indeed quite famous; there are quite a few people here who know her.
After all, she was once considered a leader among the younger generation, so there was no reason for them not to know her.
Bai Di quickly turned his head towards the person.
But the next second, she heard the person say, "I remember Bai Ying is from the Bai family, and Bai Di, you're from the Bai family too. You're from the same family! Are you familiar with Bai Ying? Could you introduce me?"
Upon hearing this person's words, Bai Di's expression instantly turned ugly.
He mentioned himself, and it turned out that it was also because of Bai Ying!
In that instant, her disgust for Bai Ying was utterly profound.
Before she could speak, someone said:
"I know, isn't she that Bai Ying sister? I heard she's quite skilled in cultivation. She only took a year to go from the Foundation Establishment stage to the Nascent Soul stage."
When Bai Di heard him say those words, she was immediately delighted, and the corners of her mouth curled up in a pleasant smile.
Her eyes gleamed with undisguised smugness.
