Ye Sisi took the spatial ring from Bai Luochen, played with it for a moment, and then said, "Forget it, this is too insincere. Let's talk about it again after you've earned your own money."
Bai Luochen happily took back the spatial ring he had just given away. "No? Heh, that's great. It's like I was really happy to give it away."
Ye Sisi...
This is simply unbearable to look at.
The group had barely stepped out of the courtyard when they saw Xiao Nianxue and Chen Yue in white, and of course, a beautifully dressed woman in red with an exquisite acrostic headdress.
The three had arrived long ago, but we wanted to give them some time alone, so we waited outside.
Chen Yue smiled at Bai Luochen. Although they were uncle and nephew, Chen Yue was older than Bai Luochen, and they had known each other before Bai Luochen became his disciple, so they were more like friends.
Bai Luochen clicked his tongue twice: "Isn't this my nephew Chen Yue? Come, come, quickly call him Uncle-Master."
Chen Yue...
Sure enough, this guy is still the same as ever. He's the head of a sect now, doesn't he have any pride?
Despite the many teasing gazes from Zhuo Zhuo, he still respectfully bowed and said, "Chen Yue greets Martial Uncle Luo Chen."
Sigh, the higher the rank, the more oppressive it is. This seniority is the same. It's really frustrating. Suddenly, I really miss the days when I wasn't Su Jiuli's disciple.
Chu Nianxue, who had grown into a graceful young woman, smiled brightly and joined Chen Yue in cheering loudly, "Nianxue greets Martial Uncle Luo Chen."
She was only six years old when she arrived at the Heavenly Spirit Sect. Her master was not very reliable and often left her with her uncle who liked to wear red. So she was actually closest to Bai Luochen.
Although her other senior uncles and aunts were also very kind to her, it was different. This senior uncle still had the heart of a young man and would play many childish games with her. So when she saw the scene of his death, she was heartbroken for a long, long time, and her tears never dried.
Seeing the drastically changed Xiao Nianxue, Bai Luochen felt as if he had been separated from his family for a very long time. It turned out that he had really been gone for a very long time. The little girl who used to follow him around every day and need him to take her out to eat and play with her had grown up so much.
Seeing Bai Luochen suddenly freeze in place, Ye Sisi quickly stepped forward, put her arm around Xiao Nianxue's shoulder, and said with a grin, "Fifth Senior Brother, are you so captivated by our Xiao Nianxue's stunning beauty that you can't believe your eyes? Look at you, so pathetic."
Everyone couldn't help but twitch their lips; what on earth was this all about?
Bai Luochen also came to his senses, rolled his eyes in annoyance, and then smiled at Xiao Nianxue beside him: "Xiaoxue, don't listen to your junior uncle's nonsense. Her brain sometimes goes blank. You'll get used to it. I just didn't realize how much you've grown up. I'm not used to it."
Everyone fell silent upon hearing this. No one asked him how he had spent so many years in the world of immortality, whether he was conscious, whether he suffered, or whether he was lonely. It wasn't that they didn't care about him, but rather that they didn't know how to ask.
Judging from his words and actions, he seems to still be the same somewhat naive and innocent boy he used to be, as if time has left no trace on his heart. But is that really the case? Not necessarily.
Xiao Nianxue sensed something was wrong and quickly stepped forward to pull Bai Luochen down the mountain: "Uncle Luochen, you have no idea how delicious the food at our Tianling Sect is! Junior Brother has even recruited two more food cultivators... I can't take it anymore, I'm drooling! Hurry up, you have to eat more today."
Chen Yue...
Why is he always the one who gets hurt? Being called "junior brother" by a girl so much younger than him—only those who have experienced it know how that feels.
Ye Sisi lowered her eyes, concealing all her emotions, and quickly followed.
Meng Tianyuan sighed softly and led the group down the mountain.
Bai Luochen then remembered to ask, "Xiao Xue'er, who was that little girl in red standing next to you just now?"
Xiao Nianxue blinked, looking at the Hidden Head who had somehow appeared beside Bai Luochen, and said sincerely, "It's the Hidden Head. Didn't Uncle Luochen recognize her aura?"
Bai Luochen was struck dumb, stiffly turning his head to look at the smiling Hidden Head, feeling as if the world had turned upside down.
"Hey you, aren't you charmed by my cuteness?"
Bai Luochen...
He couldn't help but shudder, then reached out and pushed the head of the hidden figure aside, patted his chest, and said, "I need to calm down. Don't hang around in front of me right now, hidden figure, I can't handle it."
She snorted coldly, thinking that this guy had no taste at all; she was really beautiful now.
——
At the Tianling Sect's martial arts arena, Bai Luochen, having eaten and drunk his fill, stood opposite Ye Sisi, clutching the Chixiao sword with a lifeless expression.
By the way, Chixiao was taken out of the Eternal World by Ye Sisi right after Bai Luochen's soul was separated.
When Bai Luochen died and his Dao dissipated, Chi Xiao was also left in the world of eternal life.
Ye Sisi wanted to bring it out, but Chi Xiao refused, so she simply left it inside. Now that Bai Luochen has awakened, her old companion should naturally stand with its master.
"Junior sister, you can't bully me like this. Even though I'm in the fused form now, how could I possibly beat you? Besides, I just woke up. Can't you let me rest for a couple more days?"
Ye Sisi remained unmoved. Of course, she wasn't just bored and wanted to fight Bai Luochen.
After she, Baicao, and Su Jiuli took turns checking him, they confirmed that Bai Luochen was indeed fine. However, his strength came too... how should I put it, too strangely. It wasn't something he cultivated little by little on his own, so it wasn't solid. If he couldn't control it properly, it could cause his foundation to become unstable, or even stagnate forever, which wouldn't be good. So it's no wonder she was anxious.
Of course, cultivators at the Integration Stage can't be said to be invincible in the Spirit Realm, but they are still dominant figures in their respective areas. Even if their cultivation stagnates, they can still live a carefree and comfortable life.
However, Bai Luochen's current body possesses talent that surpasses even his previous abilities, making ascension to immortality only a matter of time. It would be a great pity to abandon the Great Dao now. Besides, if everyone else ascends and Bai Luochen is left alone in the Spirit Realm, he would be filled with deep regret.
Moreover, behind the Spirit Realm are the World Destroyer Realm and the Demon Realm. The stronger you are, the better. So Bai Luochen won't be able to have any peace and quiet for a while.
Now, his master, uncles, brothers, sisters, and junior sisters are all of higher cultivation levels than him. He can have a different sparring partner every day. This kind of treatment is unique in the entire spirit world.
"Fifth Senior Brother, are you ready? I'm about to make my move."
Bai Luochen gripped his sword and raised his hand, saying, "Wait, I need to calm down a bit more."
Ye Sisi nodded obediently, her smile so sweet it was almost unbearable, but Bai Luochen suddenly shuddered. Then he flashed towards Ye Sisi, and Ye Sisi's figure shot out almost at the same time as him, as if their previous exchange was just for show and didn't exist at all.
