Although Xiao Yuhan still had some doubts, since Miao Xiaodie appeared in front of him in this way, she must be trying to cover her tracks. So Xiao Yuhan immediately decided that no matter what the situation was, he would take Miao Xiaodie away first.
The fellow disciples did not stop Xiao Yuhan. Although they were still puzzled, the fact that he suddenly had an illegitimate daughter was indeed Xiao Yuhan's private matter. Since he said he would give an answer, they did not say anything more.
Upon returning to the Discipline Hall, Xiao Yuhan erected a protective barrier to prevent outsiders from overhearing their conversation.
"Miao Xiaodie, what exactly are you trying to do?"
The little girl felt much more at ease in front of Xiao Yuhan. She picked up some pastries from the table and ate them as she spoke, "I have no other choice, Xiao Yuhan. I have to come to you for help. Last time I returned to the Five Immortals Sect, I discovered something was wrong. Someone had betrayed me and had pledged allegiance to the person who possessed me. I wanted to regain power and wipe out the traitors. Things were going quite smoothly until about a year ago when a man suddenly appeared. He was terrifying. I lost in just one move. Can you imagine? Since you left, I have already achieved Dao, but I still couldn't withstand that man's sword!"
Xiao Yuhan was stunned. "You've actually achieved Dao? You've achieved Dao? If you could achieve Dao even in this environment of scarce spiritual energy, how could you be defeated in one move?"
Miao Xiaodie stared at Xiao Yuhan, her expression somewhat dazed. "To put it this way, the reason why no one in this world can achieve Dao is not because the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is scarce, but because some force is restraining the laws of heaven and earth. I don't know when it started, but the spiritual energy in my Southern Border has gradually become more abundant, and it is easier to feel the laws of heaven and earth. It's as if some restrictions have been gradually lifted. So what I can't understand even more is, what is the background of the man who can defeat me in one move?"
Hearing this, Xiao Yuhan thought of the experts above the Dao Integration Realm he had seen before, and immediately mentioned the nine demon foxes he had seen at the Kunlun Immortal Sect. Miao Xiaodie shook her head after listening, "That man is not a demon. He wields two swords, and I can't understand the origin of his sword techniques. If it weren't for the Heavenly Silkworm Gu that I cultivate, I probably wouldn't have made it to the Heavenly Sword Sect alive this time."
At this point, Xiao Yuhan was somewhat confused, "You said you were coming, so why did you say you were my daughter? And what's wrong with your body right now?"
Miao Xiaodie continued, "I was seriously injured... It will probably take a long time to recover to my former cultivation level. I had been to the Heavenly Sword Sect before, originally intending to communicate directly with Ye Qingyun. Back then, I wasn't like this; I was just injured. But when I arrived at your sect, a junior disciple stopped me, saying he had to report before he could take me into the sect. So I waited at the foot of the mountain, and then... I was attacked again. This time, I was attacked by someone from the Demonic Sect. He wasn't particularly strong, but I was injured and still couldn't defeat him. This time, he almost killed me, which is why I turned into this little baby."
"You mean there's a traitor within our Heavenly Sword Sect? Or a traitor from the Demonic Sect? But... why would they attack you?" At this point, Xiao Yuhan seemed to understand something.
The person who possessed Miao Xiaodie in the Southern Frontier was "it," and the system also mentioned before that the first sect leader of the Demon Sect was also someone who had been possessed by "it." So perhaps "it" still has some means to control the Demon Sect?
However, since the Demonic Sect was besieged, its strength has been greatly reduced, and it can no longer pose a threat. He had met a young boy, Yang Yunsui, the current young master of the Demonic Sect, in Yingyue City before. However, Xiao Yuhan believed that this kid should not have any appeal and could not pose any threat. But he was still a little uneasy about the matter of the Heavenly Sword Sect having an internal traitor.
"So what are you planning to do now? Bah, what are you planning to do now?" Xiao Yuhan was almost led astray by Miao Xiaodie's accent.
Miao Xiaodie said helplessly, "What else can I do? I can only follow you. I'll recuperate in the Heavenly Sword Sect first, and I'll leave after I'm healed. After thinking about it carefully, there's no place in the world safer than your Heavenly Sword Sect. But I don't know anyone here, just you. As for your senior brothers and sisters, I don't trust them much, so I can only follow you."
Xiao Yuhan was even more helpless, "You can't say she's my daughter, that would ruin my reputation."
Miao Xiaodie picked up her teacup and took a sip. "Then I need a new identity! Otherwise, if the Five Immortals Sect finds out I'm here and brings that man here to your Heavenly Sword Sect, we're doomed. Even the number one sect in the world will be drenched in blood!"
Xiao Yuhan suddenly felt a bit of a problem. Indeed, keeping Miao Xiaodie alive meant that it could very well pose such a threat to the sect. But given his senior brother's upright and incorruptible character, he would certainly not stand idly by after learning the whole story.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yuhan decided to discuss it with his senior brother. Although Miao Xiaodie said that she didn't trust anyone but him, Xiao Yuhan trusted his fellow disciples, so he said again, "This matter cannot be kept from my senior brother. Since you came to the Heavenly Sword Sect to bring us risks, and you are asking for help, then don't think too much about it. I trust my senior brothers."
Miao Xiaodie panicked. "No way! Yes! You trust them, and I trust them too, but they also have people they can trust. You can't see into someone's heart, don't you know that? Even the people I trust most will betray me. Surely not everyone in your Heavenly Sword Sect is a good person? For example, your senior brother Ye Qingyun, I know him well, he's upright, but what about the people around him? What about the disciples he raised? What about the sect elders who interacted with him? That's why I thought about it for a long time before deciding to approach you this way, Xiao Yuhan. You can ignore this, but I'm sticking with you now. If the news really leaks out and brings disaster to your Heavenly Sword Sect, then we'll all die together!"
