Su Jiuli listened to her ask a barrage of questions before calmly answering, "The trouble is because the Haoran Sect is convinced that Luo Jiuge died at his hands, and they are now relentlessly pursuing him. As for the specifics of his grudges with the sect, I don't know, but it seems to be related to his Daoist partner. As for the next sect leader, we haven't decided yet."
Ye Sisi's mouth dropped open: "But... I killed Luo Jiuge," she paused, "Senior Brother, you made a deal with him?"
Su Jiuli smiled and nodded: "You reacted quite quickly."
Ye Sisi couldn't help but give him a thumbs up. She took back her previous complaints about her senior brother. He was still the same senior brother, always able to put people at ease.
"What about True Person Hongling of the Qingyun Sect? How is she? Is Liu Yun'er dead?"
"After taking the Great Rejuvenation Pill, True Person Hongling has already broken through to the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm. With her talent, it won't be long before she advances to the Body Transformation realm. As for Liu Yun'er..."
At this point, his tone turned colder: "She's dead, but her father is very strange."
Ye Sisi didn't ask him what deal he made with the Qingyun Sect, but was instead drawn to Liu Yun'er's biological father.
"Who was her father again? I think he was some kind of elder from the Blue Flower Heavenly Palace?"
"He is Qingyuan Zhenren of Lanhua Heavenly Palace, and one of the few sixth-order alchemists in Cangjing."
"What's wrong with him?"
"I'm still investigating the specifics. I'll tell you if you still want to know once I've found out."
Upon hearing this, Ye Sisi decisively shook her head: "Then please don't tell me. I still need to cultivate. Breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage as soon as possible is the most important thing. As for the rest, Senior Brother, you can do more for me."
"Don't be lazy. Don't forget to go to the training hall at Chenshi tomorrow. Your talisman peak is still under construction and won't be usable for a while. If you want to teach disciples to draw talismans, there's a lecture hall in the outer sect, which is enough."
"By the way, I just promoted Chen Yue to an outer sect elder. He's in charge of some of the outer sect's affairs. You can ask him for anything."
"You wouldn't be thinking of having him take over your job, would you?"
In fact, Ye Sisi thought Chen Yue was not bad. He was good in terms of talent, temperament and ability. With more training, he could definitely support the Tianling Sect.
Su Jiuli did not answer the question directly, but said, "I'll borrow your Pure World Glazed Pagoda in a few days."
Ye Sisi nodded, thinking that Su Jiuli probably wanted to hand over the Tianling Sect to Chen Yue, but only after he passed the test of the Pure World Glazed Pagoda.
"Have you finished asking questions?"
Ye Sisi tilted her head, thought for a moment, and then nodded: "I think I've finished asking the questions."
"Now that you've finished asking your questions, go and start cultivating. Perfect timing, you probably haven't used the newly built cultivation room for you yet."
As Su Jiuli spoke, she stood up leisurely and walked towards Ye Sisi's cultivation room.
Ye Sisi sighed and resignedly followed. She knew that once Su Jiuli arrived, she wouldn't be able to slack off anymore.
As dawn broke, Su Jiuli and Ye Sisi opened their eyes at the same time. Both of them were very satisfied, after all, they had been cultivating alone for so long, and the effect of cultivating together was incomparable.
Ye Sisi sighed, "It's still better to have Senior Brother."
She has an advantage due to her low cultivation level; if this continues, it won't be long before she reaches the late Nascent Soul stage.
Su Jiuli stood up and said, "It's almost Chenshi (7-9 AM). Go and get ready to learn how Second Junior Sister guides their cultivation."
Ye Sisi sighed and nodded. Since she couldn't avoid it, she could only accept her fate.
"Oh right, I forgot to tell you last night that I invited a food cultivator to the sect. If you go there now, there should still be food available."
Ye Sisi rushed out of the courtyard in a flash. Food cultivators, huh? Their cooking must be incredibly delicious. You know, the reason why the food at Zuixianju is so delicious is because they have trained a large number of food cultivators.
She actually missed out on the sect's new benefits yesterday. Sigh, I feel like I lost a fortune.
Seeing that the little girl who had just been beside him had vanished in an instant, Su Jiuli shook his head helplessly and then walked towards the direction of the Heavenly Spirit Palace.
As soon as Ye Sisi rushed into the canteen, she found it crowded with people; the disciples must have all returned from the Ironwood Forest.
There was a strange sense of familiarity to it. Cutting down trees felt like the morning exercise I used to do. Why would a proper cultivation sect turn into something like a school?
She stared at the long queue and fell silent. Should she use her status to cut in line? Would that be too beneath her dignity?
Just as she was struggling with this, she felt a tap on her shoulder.
Turning around, she saw Bai Luochen standing behind her. "I knew you'd be late. I've already prepared your food."
Ye Sisi had never thought Bai Luochen was so adorable. Moved, she grabbed his hand and said with tears in her eyes, "Fifth Senior Brother, you're so kind. Don't worry, as long as I have a bite to eat, you'll have a sip of soup to drink."
Bai Luochen...
He took a deep breath to stop himself from swearing, shook off Ye Sisi's hand, and strode forward. Why did he feel that this junior sister was becoming more and more mentally unstable?
Ignoring the curious stares around them, Ye Sisi followed Bai Luochen eagerly, calling out, "Fifth Senior Brother, wait for me!"
As elders of the Heavenly Spirit Sect, they still have special privileges, such as having a large private room on the second floor.
At this moment, only Chu Nianxue, a little dumpling, was eating with her mouth full of oil in the large private room. When she saw the two of them come in, she took a bite of her chicken leg and said indistinctly, "Uncle-Master Luo Chen, Junior Uncle, come quickly, or I'll finish eating."
Ye Sisi nodded with a smile, completely lacking any awareness of caring for the young, and picked up her chopsticks to start devouring the food.
Chu Nianxue's eyes widened. She had been in the Tianling Sect for so long, and everyone had always been accommodating to her, giving her the best food first. Why was this junior uncle different? He ate so fast; she wouldn't get enough to eat.
Bai Luochen sighed and said to Xiao Nianxue, whose tears were about to fall, "Xiaoxue, your junior uncle has been alone in the Yellow Springs Forbidden Land for six months. There is no food in there, so she must be starving. Let her eat more, and she won't be like this after she is full."
Upon hearing this, Chu Nianxue immediately felt sorry for Ye Sisi and gave all of her favorite roasted lamb leg to her junior uncle, comforting him in a childish voice, "Junior uncle, you're so pitiful. Eat more so you can grow taller."
Ye Sisi almost choked on her own saliva, but who was she? She was shameless enough to scare even herself. So she nodded and said, "Thank you, Xiaoxue'er. Can you give me all the meat from now on?"
Chu Nianxue was almost bursting with tears. She hesitated for a moment and whispered, "But... but if I don't eat meat, I'll be very hungry. What if I can't lift the sword anymore?"
"That must be because the sword is too heavy. It has nothing to do with whether you eat meat or not. Remember, only a sword that obeys you is a good sword. If it's so heavy that you can't lift it, then throw it away."
Bai Luochen... Don't you feel any guilt for fooling children like this?
It was obediently staying in its dantian, enjoying the pure spiritual energy washing over it without leaving a trace... Was this a veiled attack on it?
