Outside the Enforcement Hall of the Shenxiao Sect.
Watching Chi Yuan's receding figure, Lu Ziling and the other seven women wept bitterly, kneeling around You Rong Qingxian, tugging at her skirts, and pleading with her.
"Master, please think of something! I don't want my senior brother to leave..."
"Master, please let my senior brother stay... Qingli doesn't want to lose him, sob sob..."
"Master, we know we were wrong. We will never make our senior brother angry again. Please let him come back!"
"Master, Wan'er deserves to die a thousand deaths. I am willing to accept the punishment for this, just so that my senior brother can come back... Wan'er cannot live without my senior brother..."
...
Hearing her disciples' cries and pleas, You Rong Qingxian seemed to have her soul fly away. Her hands under her sleeves trembled involuntarily. She stared blankly at Chi Yuan's figure, wondering what... she was doing.
"Yuan'er... Yuan'er!"
As if her soul had returned to its body, You Rong Qingxian suddenly rallied her spirits, her face showing determination. Chi Yuan was her disciple, and she absolutely could not allow Chi Yuan to leave the sect!
We absolutely must find a way to keep this good apprentice!
"I can't let him go!"
With a gritted lip, You Rongqingxian took a step forward as if she were going to risk everything, intending to stop Chi Yuan.
The truth is still out, and Chi Yuan may have been framed. As his master, she has a duty to clear Chi Yuan's name and seek justice! Before that, she must protect Chi Yuan!
"stop."
But at that moment, an old figure appeared in front of her with his back to her, and said in a calm voice, "If he wants to leave, let him leave. No one is allowed to stop him, or he will be punished according to the sect rules."
"You will all return to Tianyue Peak with me. From this day forward, Tianyue Peak will be closed for three years. No one is allowed to enter or leave!"
...
Several miles from the Shenxiao Sect's mountain gate, beside a mountain stream, Chi Yuan sat cross-legged on a blue stone, his eyes sparkling with amazement.
"This thing called the system is incredibly powerful. It can change my physique out of thin air, and it's even the Chaos Sacred Body, which is many times stronger than the Innate Sword Body! It even repaired the damage to my dantian. It's truly amazing!"
"This Heaven-Burning Void Refining Technique is also a top-tier cultivation method, far superior to the Azure Origin Sword Technique I cultivated before. After only two hours of practice, I'm already close to reaching the first-level Spirit Master! At this rate, I'm afraid that in a few years, I will be able to recover my peak cultivation and advance back to the Spirit King realm!"
"The Nine Netherworld Fire is also an extraordinary thing. This kind of spiritual fire is not only powerful in itself, but also has a strong auxiliary effect on alchemy. In my previous life, that demon Ye Chen subdued a kind of spiritual fire... Such a rare thing in the world was obtained by me without any effort."
"Those three spiritual techniques are extraordinary. The lowest one, the Six Meridians Divine Sword, is probably at the Xuan level. The other two spiritual techniques are estimated to be no less than the Tian level. If they were all mastered, they might even reach the Saint level! Tsk tsk, if this were in the Divine Firmament Sect, wouldn't it drive everyone crazy?"
(Cultivation Techniques and Spiritual Skills Levels: Human Rank, Profound Rank, Heaven Rank, Saint Rank, Emperor Rank)
...
After inwardly praising it, Chi Yuan couldn't help but marvel at the mystery of fate.
After his cultivation was stripped away, he had already resigned himself to his fate, thinking that living a peaceful and ordinary life was his destiny in this world.
But unexpectedly, things took a turn for the better, and he obtained the incredible opportunity of the system!
It can truly be said that misfortune turned into a blessing in disguise.
Now, not only is his recovery of cultivation imminent, but he also has enough resources to take revenge on Ye Chen and that old hag.
It has to be said that this system completely rewrote his destiny in this life!
Thinking of the future prospects, Chi Yuan couldn't help but show a hint of joy. His nearly dead heart was suddenly reborn, and hope began to rekindle.
Although he lost his sect, his master, and his seven junior sisters, he still has his family, his parents, and his brothers. As long as his home is there, he can still live a wonderful and fulfilling life with the help of this system.
Moreover, his fiancée is waiting for him!
A beautiful image involuntarily surfaced in Chi Yuan's mind—his childhood sweetheart, the woman with whom he was destined to spend his life.
He had promised that the day he returned home would be the day he married her, and now it was time to fulfill that promise!
Chi Yuan took a deep breath, and his face regained its radiance.
This is not a place for cultivation. It would be best to return to the family as soon as possible. Only with the family's protection can he cultivate in peace. Otherwise, he doesn't know if that old hag will send someone to harm him.
At that moment, Chi Yuan pushed himself up and strode towards home.
...
Tianyue Peak.
Beside the cliff behind Chi Yuan's residence, under a lush, verdant pine tree swaying in the wind.
Lu Ziling, dressed in a purple dress, knelt before the stone platform where Chi Yuan used to cultivate, staring blankly at the objects placed on the platform.
There weren't many things on the stone platform: a hundred or so spirit stones, a few low-grade spiritual artifacts, and some low-level talismans, pills, and alchemy materials. Only a third-grade spiritual sword and a third-grade alchemy furnace could barely be considered valuable. But compared to Chi Yuan's Spirit King level and the status of the senior disciple of Tianyue Peak, it was practically shabby.
And this is all the wealth in Chi Yuan's Qiankun Bag.
Behind Lu Ziling, five women—Yu Qingli, Su Ningyan, Leng Feiruo, Yue Qianrou, and Mu Lingyun—also knelt on the ground, gazing sadly at Chi Yuan's belongings on the stone platform.
"Qingli, you've been using this second-grade spirit sword for many years, it's time to replace it. Luckily, your senior brother has a third-grade sword here, you can use it for now."
"Ningyan, don't be discouraged. Failing in alchemy is common and nothing to worry about. I happened to get a third-grade alchemy furnace, and it's just sitting there anyway. It can help improve your success rate in alchemy. Also, here are some medicinal herbs. Keep them. I have plenty more."
"Fei Ruo, it's not that I'm criticizing you, but you should spend more of your spirit stones on cultivation. Why do you buy so many pretty clothes and jewelry every day? You always ask me which outfit looks best. You have a different outfit every day, I almost don't recognize you if I don't look closely... Here are fifty spirit stones, go buy more resources for cultivation, and don't let it interfere with your cultivation."
"Rou'er, you've run out of talismans again? It's alright. Being warlike is a good thing; it can help you improve your strength quickly. If you like sparring, then find more people to spar with. If you run out of talismans, just ask your senior brother for more; he has plenty."
"Yun'er, your Water Spirit Body is very effective at cultivating with Water Spirit Pills. I happened to get a Water Spirit Pill recipe during my recent training trip, and I made some for you. You can use them to cultivate first, and I'll make some more for you when I have time."
...
Recalling the past, all the women felt a pang of heartache. The eldest brother always pretended to be nonchalant in front of them, giving them a sense of insignificance no matter what he gave them, to the point that they really thought those things were worthless to him.
But only now, seeing their eldest brother's possessions, did they realize how much he had silently sacrificed for them...
