Thinking of this, the Huayang Sect Master's scalp began to tighten, as if someone were tightly constricting it. It felt terribly numb.
The regret in his heart was so overwhelming that it almost drowned him.
Although he tried hard to tell himself that Qin Hua Zhenren's prediction should be correct, how could he not have doubts when he looked at the scene in front of him?
Bai Ying is already at the late stage of the Golden Core realm. Now that she has been chosen by the Brahma Immortal Venerable, will she really be trampled underfoot by Ruan Xinrou?
He really couldn't believe it no matter how he thought about it; such a cultivation speed was something Ruan Xinrou couldn't even catch up to.
At this moment, the Brahma Immortal Venerable addressed everyone present, saying, "From now on, Bai Ying is my successor. You must not disrespect her. I will pass on my Spirit Herb Garden to her, and you will all call her the Garden Master."
This statement caused another uproar in the audience, because although the Spirit Herb Garden seemed to be just a garden, and didn't even have as many spirit herbs as a sect's reserves, what made it precious was that it contained all sorts of spirit herbs.
Even the most precious level nine spiritual herbs are available. You should know that just consuming one of these herbs can save a cultivator a hundred years of cultivation time, allowing them to break through to the next level quickly.
The Chaos Heavenly Spirit Pill that the Demon Lord used to wager with the various sects was refined from ninth-grade spiritual herbs. Now, the Brahma Immortal Venerable is imparting to her various alchemy secrets.
For her, the Chaos Heavenly Spirit Pill, which all the major sects were scrambling to obtain, could be refined by Bai Ying herself. How terrifying was that!
With all of this, Bai Ying's cultivation reaching the Nascent Soul stage is a certainty. If her luck improves further, even reaching the Void Refinement stage like Brahma Immortal Venerable is not impossible.
Just thinking about it makes people envious.
Xiao Yu was completely lost in thought when she looked at Bai Ying.
So much happened that day. Bai Ying's image in his heart changed again and again, and now she was so far away from him that he felt he could never reach her again...
"However, Bai Ying," the Brahma Immortal Venerable said to Bai Ying, "the spiritual herbs in the Spirit Herb Garden also have rules for use. The higher your cultivation level, the higher the level they can open to you. Those level nine spiritual herbs can only be opened when you are at least at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, so you cannot neglect cultivation."
"Yes, Immortal Venerable!"
Brahma Immortal Venerable smiled as he looked at Bai Ying, "What? You've taken so many things from me, yet you still call me Immortal Venerable?"
Bai Ying was stunned. She had heard that the Brahma Immortal Venerable did not accept disciples, but she did not expect that he already had the intention to take her as a disciple.
But Bai Ying already has a master. If she were to acknowledge another master, would Xuan Yuan Chen be angry? Bai Ying subconsciously looked at Xuan Yuan Chen, who nodded vigorously at her. Bai Ying immediately clasped her hands and said to the Brahma Immortal Venerable, "Thank you, Master."
Brahma Immortal Venerable laughed heartily, "Good! Good!"
As he spoke, he glanced at Xuan Yuan Chen again and smiled, "Don't worry, I won't compete with you for your disciple."
He gently stroked Bai Ying's head with his fingers and said to her, "Keep it up, little one," before his figure began to fade.
Finding a successor has been Brahma Immortal Venerable's only obsession over the years, and it is this obsession that has kept him going for so long.
Now that his obsession has finally been fulfilled, he is about to disappear...
Before disappearing, he took out a wooden slip and handed it to Bai Ying. "This is what the Lin clan chief and I signed when I saved them. He made a promise to me that if I ever found a successor, I should have my successor take this bamboo slip to him. He would have his descendants marry my successor, and in that case, my successor would be protected by the entire Lin clan, and no one would dare to bully him anymore."
At that time, the Celestial Venerable Brahma was worried about his successor. He was afraid that after he disappeared, someone would have designs on his successor, so he directly used a super clan like the Lin family to protect his successor.
“Once this wooden slip is opened, the Lin clan will immediately appear here. The youngest direct descendant of the Lin clan right now should be that boy named Lin Yuan. That boy is also a genius with outstanding talent. You two are a good match. It would be excellent if you two could become Daoist partners.”
Bai Ying never expected that this Brahma Immortal Venerable would arrange a marriage for her.
Xiao Yu was completely stunned when he heard these words, his heart clenching painfully. He had been lying on top of his fellow disciple, unable to move due to his severe injuries. But now, he couldn't help but clench his fingers tightly, so tightly that his nails dug into his flesh.
The Lin clan is the largest clan in the entire Central Continent, even more powerful than sects. Marrying a member of the Lin clan grants one their protection, a goal many cultivators vie for.
Xiao Yu had been trying to tell himself that he liked Ruan Xinrou the most, and he had told himself more than once that Ruan Xinrou was the best choice for him.
But at this moment, when he heard with his own ears that the Brahma Immortal Venerable was going to marry Bai Ying to Lin Yuan, he suddenly felt a heart-wrenching pain.
He had met Lin Yuan before; the man was indeed a young genius, and he and Bai Ying were a very well-matched couple...
Just thinking about the two of them together made him feel incredibly uncomfortable, to the point that he could hardly breathe.
This wasn't something the sect leader casually mentioned before, suggesting that Bai Ying and Lin Yizhi get married. It was a marriage arrangement personally made for Bai Ying by the Brahma Immortal Venerable!
Even the wooden slip Bai Ying was holding was their marriage certificate!
His eyes were fixed on Bai Ying, his mind filled with everything that had happened between him and Bai Ying.
Bai Ying's initial joy upon seeing him turned into a tense standoff.
The final scene freezes on the moment when Bai Ying was dressed in her wedding gown, ready to marry him.
Xiao Yu knew about that wedding dress; it was hand-sewn by Bai Ying, stitch by stitch.
At that time, he still thought Bai Ying was stupid. He was just teasing her, but she took it seriously and prepared so diligently.
She even gave him one, but he didn't wear it; instead, he threw it away as trash.
But at this moment, he was actually thinking, what if he hadn't maliciously teased Bai Ying back then, but had actually married her instead?
So now Bai Ying is his Daoist partner, she belongs to him!
