Upon entering the courtyard, the temperature inside immediately puts one at ease.
Although no one has lived there for more than a month, the courtyard remains clean and spotless.
However, Qing Xuanzi still used his cleaning technique to clean the courtyard inside and out before putting Rong Jiaojiao on the ground and letting her run around and play as she pleased.
He went to cook for the two of them himself...
The next morning, Qing Xuanzi dragged Rong Jiaojiao out of bed early. Seeing her drowsy state, he used a wake-up spell on her.
Rong Jiaojiao immediately felt a chill run through her from head to toe, and she instantly sobered up, calling out "Master" in a pitiful voice.
Qing Xuanzi coughed to cover his soft heart and said, "Jiaojiao, from today onwards, you will cultivate with your master every day, so you can't sleep in anymore, understand?"
Rong Jiaojiao didn't know what cultivation was, but she knew what it meant to not sleep in. She pouted and was about to whine, but Qing Xuanzi said sternly, "Don't cry. If Jiaojiao wants to be able to draw talismans and fly high like her master, she has to work hard to cultivate."
Rong Jiaojiao nodded with a wronged expression: "Baby is cultivating!"
Qing Xuanzi brought Rong Jiaojiao to the main room, put her down, then took out the portrait of the patriarch, set up the incense table, and lit incense.
"Jiaojiao, starting today, you will formally become my apprentice. Your master will teach you many amazing skills in the future."
Although Qing Xuanzi spoke softly, his words carried a seriousness he rarely displayed.
Although Rong Jiaojiao was still young, she seemed to be able to sense the seriousness in her master's expression. She held Qing Xuanzi's hand and said in a childish voice, "Baby will be good and will learn amazing skills!"
Qing Xuanzi nodded, led her to the portrait, and knelt down.
"Grandmaster, your disciple Qing Xuanzi and his apprentice Rong Jiaojiao formally become disciples today. May the Grandmaster bless your cultivation so that your disciple and apprentice may progress smoothly and become Celestial Masters as soon as possible."
He paused, a hint of determination in his eyes, and continued, "Disciple Qing Xuanzi will do his utmost to teach my disciple. I hope that the spirit of the Ancestral Master in heaven will bless Jiaojiao so that she can inherit our sect's mantle and carry on our sect's tradition."
Qing Xuanzi's voice echoed in the main hall, carrying a solemn and devout tone.
He led Rong Jiaojiao in kowtowing three times, then got up, tidied the incense burner on the altar, and respectfully bowed to the portrait.
After putting them all away, I took out a cup of tea and handed it to Rong Jiaojiao: "Here, baby, give the tea to Master and say, Master, please have some tea."
Rong Jiaojiao may not know much else, but she knows how to serve tea to her master.
She knelt there, took the tea her master offered, and then handed it back, saying, "Father, please have some tea!"
Qing Xuanzi took a sip of tea and said, "Get up. From today onwards, you are a disciple of my sect. If anyone bullies you in the future, just say your grandmaster's name. He's very powerful."
Rong Jiaojiao: "Who is Xizuzu?"
"Your grandmaster is my grandmaster, and my master's master!"
Rong Jiaojiao was completely confused. What was this "Grandmaster," "Grandmaster," and "Master's Master"? She didn't understand...
Qing Xuanzi found it amusing. He recalled that when he became a disciple, his master told him to go to his grandmaster if he needed anything. As a result, whenever something happened, he would go to his grandmaster, and his master would get a beating.
Forehead……
Will I keep getting nerfed in the future...?
Forget it, Jiao Bao is much younger than me when she becomes her disciple, she definitely won't remember. It's more important to teach her the cultivation techniques as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, Qing Xuanzi couldn't help but laugh out loud, which amused Rong Jiaojiao, who was unaware of what was going on, to giggle as well, and the courtyard was instantly filled with a joyful atmosphere.
"Father Xi, it's time for baby to learn some skills!" Rong Jiaojiao shouted, swinging her short little legs.
Qing Xuanzi rubbed her head and said with a smile, "Alright, Master will teach you now."
He led Rong Jiaojiao to the courtyard, laid out a cushion and a futon, and taught Rong Jiaojiao to sit cross-legged in front of him.
"Jiaojiao, the first step in cultivation is to feel the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, just like feeling the sunlight and the breeze." Rong Jiaojiao tilted her head, listening attentively, but while her expression was serious, her eyes were blank.
"Father, what does it feel like?" Rong Jiaojiao is still a baby, a baby doesn't understand.
Qing Xuanzi laughed and said, "I knew you wouldn't understand."
"Close your eyes, release your divine sense, and let your divine sense roam everywhere."
Believe it or not, after more than two years of instruction from Qing Xuanzi, Rong Jiaojiao really knows what divine sense is, and that it can be freely controlled and used.
Qing Xuanzi also closed his eyes and used his divine sense to guide Rong Jiaojiao to discover various white light spots in the air.
Then, it activated Rong Jiaojiao's spiritual power, sensing the light points that were close to Rong Jiaojiao's spiritual power.
As time passed, Rong Jiaojiao felt as if she were in a vast, dark world, surrounded by colorful lights.
Curious, she extended her divine sense, wanting to touch them, but as her divine sense approached them, they mischievously ran away, leaving only the white dots of light quietly resting around her divine sense, as if waiting for her to touch them.
"Father, baby sees a little star!"
Rong Jiaojiao opened her eyes excitedly, her little face full of surprise.
Qing Xuanzi explained, "Those are not small stars, but the primordial energy and spiritual energy of heaven and earth."
"Vitality and spiritual energy?"
"Yes, the colorful ones are called spiritual energy, and the white ones are called primordial energy. You need to find the white ones and play with them, then take them back into your belly, and then you can fly high."
"Fly high? Baby wants to fly high!"
Rong Jiaojiao's eyes lit up instantly. She imagined herself floating in the air like her master, and couldn't help but feel excited, wanting to jump up.
Qing Xuanzi smiled and nodded: "Alright, then we should first invite these vital energy friends into your belly."
"Come on, sit down, close your eyes, and let's continue."
She closed her eyes and reappeared in that dark place, seeing colorful specks of light.
She extended her divine sense again, carefully approaching the points of light.
This time, she didn't try to catch them, but instead gently touched the shimmering white specks with her divine sense.
She discovered that these points of light seemed eager to get close to her, slowly approaching her consciousness and then following her consciousness back.
Just as Qing Xuanzi was about to use his divine sense to help her circulate her vital energy within her body, she opened her eyes and spoke.
"Father, they're coming home with me!" The little guy was very excited, his face full of a sense of accomplishment.
Qing Xuanzi...
As soon as she speaks, all her previous efforts are wasted, and she has to start all over again.
He could only patiently guide them: "Yes, they like you very much. But they haven't gone home with you yet, so don't talk."
"Let's try again. Master will teach you how to make them settle in your belly, okay?"
Rong Jiaojiao looked down at her belly in confusion, then looked up and asked her master, "Didn't you go home with the baby?"
