He couldn't understand why, when it came to his turn, the Sect Master had to go in person. This was so embarrassing.
But Tian Laoqi was the sect's only seventh-grade alchemist. His cultivation level was unknown. He couldn't defeat him anyway, and the sect's Danfeng couldn't do without him. He was forced into this.
"Also, please don't tell anyone that I'm here. Otherwise, the other sects will laugh at our Tianxuan Sect."
Tianxuan Sect had always been the last one in the past few years, and he didn't want to join in the fun at all. Not at all.
"I understand. Don't regret not coming earlier." No one in the sect knew Tian Laoqi's real name. Since he appeared, he has been called Tian Laoqi.
Sang Jin was ten years old this year. Her face was no longer childish, and her previously chubby face had gradually developed some definition. She looked like a smaller version of her previous life.
She hadn't seen Li Jingyu for four years, and she didn't know whether he had successfully broken through to the Nascent Soul stage.
She had been staying in Shengdan Village for the past few years, and whenever she had time, she would look for nearby monsters to fight.
She lived on the highest hillside in the village. Sangmu and his men had built a wooden palace for her there. Usually, she, Bai Jingjing, and Yueya were the only ones in the Hibiscus Palace.
Yueya had now reached the sixth level of Qi Refining and was the fastest-growing cultivator among the Sang family's servants.
A few years later, Sang Jin was still in the Qi Refining Stage. She could only rely on formations when going out.
But her Qi Refining Stage was a little strange, she was currently at the 99th level. That was right, although she hadn't established her foundation, she was still making breakthroughs in her Qi Refining Stage.
She had clearly successfully taken the Tiandao Pill and had originally thought that breaking through the foundation-building stage was a matter of time, but now it seemed like it would be a long time coming.
The Heavenly Dao Pill did not help her break through the Foundation Establishment Stage, but only allowed her to continuously break through the Qi Refining Stage. However, she clearly felt her strength growing.
Sang Jin felt like hundreds of eyes were scrutinizing Shengdan Village. Not good!
She opened her eyes. She knew she couldn't break through the 100th level of Qi Refining today. "Bai Ling, Jing Jing, let's go out and take a look."
Over the years, she fed Bai Ling pills like sugar pills. Bai Ling is now a fourth-level divine beast. Its combat power is comparable to that of a human cultivator who has reached the great perfection of the foundation-building stage.
"Okay, master." Bai Ling wagged her tail.
"Okay, playmate. I'm just feeling bored." Bai Jingjing's appearance has always remained at the age of sixteen or seventeen.
The cultivators in the village were not very skilled, and they hadn't noticed that someone was watching them from thousands of meters above the village.
It was noon, and the villagers were relatively well-off, so they would take lunch seriously and not just have a quick bite.
Smoke from cooking fires rises into the sky, adding a breath of life to the village.
"Dad, I don't care. I just want to get in." Li Fuer was still acting like a spoiled brat to her father. It was just a shabby village, wasn't it? Her father must have a way to get in.
"Fellow Daoist Tian, how about the three of us try to join forces?" Li Xiang saw that Tian Laoqi also wanted to enter the village.
"No, someone's out of the village. I'll go ask how to get in." Tian Laoqi didn't want to cooperate with Li Laoer. He was petty and protective. If he discovered the little girl's existence, he would definitely fight with me.
"If we don't want to join forces, then don't. Look at his arrogant face." Li Fuer muttered softly.
"Fu'er, don't be rude." This child just couldn't hold back what he had to say. How could a strong man like Tian Laoqi not hear it?
"Fellow Daoist Tian, my daughter is young and ignorant, so please don't bother with her." Li Xiang clasped his fists and apologized to Tian Laoqi.
"Dad, I'm telling the truth. The Tianxuan Sect is no longer what it used to be. Now it's our Lingxuan Sect that's in charge." Li Fuer disagreed. The Lingxuan Sect was definitely more powerful than the Tianxuan Sect. Why would Dad be so servile to an elder of the Tianxuan Sect?
"Fuer! How dare you!" Li Xiangwen was angry.
Who was Tian Laoqi? Besides being the second elder of the Tianxuan Sect, he was also a seventh-rank alchemist. In the Southern Wilderness Continent, where alchemy masters were scarce, it was not worth offending an alchemist.
Since the disappearance of its previous leader, the Tianxuan Sect has been in decline for a thousand years. However, it remains the leading sect in the Tianqi Kingdom. This success is due to the mysterious cultivation and alchemy master Tian Laoqi.
Li Fuer saw that her father was really angry and yelling at her. She glanced at Tian Laoqi and said weakly, "I'm sorry, Uncle Tian. It was Fuer who was talking nonsense."
When Tian Laoqi saw the little girl he was looking for emerge, he quickly jumped off the spiritual boat. In a flash, he arrived at the entrance of Shengdan Village. There was a dock there, and a boat was docked there.
"Little girl, we meet again." Tian Laoqi looked at Sang Jin, who was wearing a light yellow cotton coat, and greeted her.
The special little white dog still followed her, but the difference was that a girl in white gauze was standing beside her.
"You're that weird uncle!" Sang Jin naturally recognized Tian Laoqi. His white hair and youthful face made him stand out wherever he went.
"Weird uncle? Yes, it's a weird uncle. Do you want to come to our Tianxuan Sect and be my apprentice?" Tian Laoqi had an expression as if he was kidnapping a child.
"Uncle Weird, why did you insist on me becoming your apprentice?"
"Because our Tianxuan Sect is in need of a genius like you. If you come, how about I give you the chief position?" When Tian Laoqi saw her talking to him, he quickly put forward tempting conditions.
"Not very good."
"Come to the sect to practice, you can have better resources. You can bring your friends with you. It's not suitable for them to practice here, is it?"
Sang Jin was stunned. This sentence really hit home for her. This strange man in front of her was right. Shengdan Village was suitable for living. But it was not suitable for cultivation.
Cultivation is about seizing the gifts of heaven and earth, forging ahead against all odds. Cultivation is about defying fate and changing destiny. Mortals only live for a hundred years. Immortal cultivators, however, can live for thousands, even tens of thousands.
Cultivation is definitely not this peaceful and routine. Since I've been practicing here alone for five years with no results, I might as well go with him to the sect and see if he can establish his foundation.
"I won't be your disciple, but I can come to your sect. I'll also bring a few people with me." Sang Jin also expressed her thoughts. Someone said they would give her resources to practice, so how could she refuse?
"Then you still have to pretend to be my disciple in front of outsiders. And get along with me as a friend in private, okay? After all, I am the second elder of the sect. I have to have some face." Tian Laoqi really wanted to take this little Maruko back to the sect.
Ever since he met her five years ago, he had wanted to bring her back to the sect.
