Chapter 204 The Pain of Growing Up
Inside the main hall.
Ye Luo recounted in detail her trip to the Southern Region.
Ming Cang was very pleased to hear this, "Good, those desperate criminals have suffered for the Immortal Alliance for too long, and now they have finally been eliminated."
Yu Xuan: "I'm afraid... they will come back again."
Yu Qianling: "No way, their base is gone, how can they possibly make a comeback?"
Yu Xuan: "As long as the Soul Refining Hall in the cultivation world remains intact, the City of Ten Thousand Sins will rise again."
Ye Luo suddenly remembered that Xiao Huan had once said that many sects and forces in the lower realm were actually branches of certain sects in the upper realm.
"So... this City of Ten Thousand Sins in the lower realm is actually a branch of the Soul Refining Hall?"
Yu Xuan was taken aback. "That's right, so it's still quite difficult to completely eliminate them at the moment."
Ye Luo: "That's really difficult."
Ming Cang: "Yu Xuan, are you sure the woman in the black mist you just mentioned ever appeared in the Star Abyss Secret Realm?"
"Yes, it wasn't just me. Disciples from other sects also witnessed it. Even Junior Brother Cen Feng almost suffered a fatal attack."
"Xiao Feng, is this really true?"
When he didn't reply for a long time, Ming Cang looked at him and saw him leaning back in his chair, looking absent-minded. "Xiao Feng?"
"Huh?" Cen Feng snapped back to reality, only then realizing that everyone was looking at him. "What's wrong?"
Seeing that he looked pale and listless, Ming Cang said with concern, "Are you feeling unwell? Why don't you go back and rest?"
"Then Master... this disciple will take his leave first." Cen Feng stood up, bowed, and slowly walked out of the hall.
Ming Cang was stunned.
When did this child become so polite?
"Xiao Feng... has he been possessed?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Luo was speechless and didn't know how to respond for a moment. She stared blankly in the direction Cen Feng had left.
Those who cultivate should be wary of damage to their Dao heart. At best, their cultivation will stagnate; at worst, they may develop demonic obstacles, making it difficult to advance even an inch even after exhausting their lifespan.
"Sigh, I hope he'll be alright..."
...
Cen Feng returned to his cave, where the lights were still on even without candles.
He sat on the bed, exhausted, looking at the numerous lighting stones embedded in the wall. Yan Xiao had installed them for him, saying he was afraid he would hurt his eyes when he played the puppet at night.
And there's this large, warm jade bed beneath me...
All the care he craved was a series of false lies.
It was merely to satisfy his momentary, lewd pleasures.
He glanced around the cave, where every corner seemed to bear his traces. Memories of their daily interactions kept flooding his mind, giving him a splitting headache and driving him almost insane.
"fraud……"
"You liar!" Cen Feng's eyes turned red as he summoned a long sword and slashed it fiercely at the jade bed beneath him.
As if that wasn't enough, he then went mad and began chiseling at the lighting stones on the wall until he had chipped them out one by one. Only then did he stop and slump to the ground, muttering to himself.
"That's good..."
"It's still the same as before...nothing has changed..."
...
Night falls.
When Ye Luo returned to the cave, he found Jun Yi holding Ye Xi, who was already asleep. The warm and loving scene made him slow his pace.
Then, lying on the bed, looking at the two similar sleeping faces, one big and one small, a happy smile appeared on his lips.
Suddenly, Jun Yi opened his eyes and pinned him down, biting his neck. "Why are you so late?"
"I talked to my master about some things..."
"About your fifth senior brother?"
"Yes, although he didn't say anything, you saw his condition the whole way. I was really afraid something might happen to him..."
“Everyone’s path of cultivation is different. If he wants to make progress in this path, he must try to grow. You should be happy for him.”
Ye Luo sighed, "Fine, I'd rather not have this kind of bittersweet growth."
Jun Yi noticed a slight movement in his eyes, then picked up his sleeping daughter and carried her back to the room, before returning, clutching his belt and clothes.
"you--!"
Ye Luo could easily see what he was up to, and her face flushed red with anger as she said, "We were just talking about something, why did you suddenly show up like this..."
Jun Yi chuckled and pulled open his shirt, revealing his well-defined muscles. He grabbed Jun Yi's ankle and said, "Baby, I'm helping you grow."
"Get out of here!"
Ye Luo glared at him angrily, raised her other foot to kick him, but he grabbed it firmly.
"We should also try the dual cultivation technique."
"Excuse!"
Jun Yi chuckled and leaned in, eagerly kissing his lips. Instantly, intimate sounds filled the cave.
The next day, early morning.
Ye Luo suddenly felt the ground shake violently and was immediately awakened.
What happened?
Jun Yi: "The Nascent Soul is about to be born."
"Nascent Soul?" Suddenly, Ye Luo seemed to realize something and sat up abruptly, saying, "Could it be that Second Senior Sister is about to succeed?"
"Yes, it should be."
Ye Luo listened to the thunder and lightning outside, and the commotion seemed quite loud. "Why does it feel even bigger than Third Senior Sister's Nascent Soul Formation?"
Jun Yi pondered for a moment, "Perhaps it's because she's a pill cultivator."
"Huh? There's a reason for this?" Ye Luo exclaimed in surprise.
"Because most alchemists advance by relying on pills for cultivation, their cultivation is too easy compared to others. Perhaps it is because the Heavenly Dao wants to maintain balance that the tribulations of alchemists are relatively more severe."
"So...I'm in trouble." Ye Luo's face showed worry. No wonder he was almost killed when he formed his core in the secret realm last time...
At this moment, Ye Xi squinted and came out holding a small pillow, muttering, "Father, Daddy... it's so noisy outside, is something wrong?"
Looking at her adorable little face, Ye Luo picked her up and gently comforted her, "It's alright, it's just that your eldest and second eldest uncles are about to come out of seclusion."
"Hmm? Xixi doesn't seem to have seen them before."
Ye Luo: "They are all very gentle people. Now, Daddy will take you to see them, okay?"
"Um!"
