"Well, when I was still in the sect, I saw very few senior brothers, senior sisters, junior brothers and sisters who were consistent in their words and deeds and got along harmoniously."
Tong Su carefully said, "Master's favoritism in bestowing rewards is different. When fellow disciples have good treasures, others become jealous, even secretly trying to steal them or even killing their fellow disciples. There is also infighting among the elders and sect leaders in the sect, and so on. These things are endless."
Yue Yuan raised an eyebrow in surprise and pondered, "Perhaps it's because the customs are different on both sides."
Righteous cultivators are all distributed in Zhongzhou, with the Wuwang River serving as the boundary.
North of the Wuwang River, there is wealth and prosperity, with numerous spiritual realms, occupied by hundreds of sects, with the Ziwei Heavenly Palace at the forefront, strict and cautious, emphasizing the principles of ethics and morality.
South of the Wuwang River, the area is relatively small and somewhat barren. Coupled with the crisscrossing mountains and scarce plains, sects are difficult to manage, so it has become the domain of rogue cultivators, who are even more free and undisciplined.
Bai Tong came from a sect, so he couldn't say anything about sects. Instead, he smiled and said, "Anyway, Xiao Bai, you'll understand after you live in the Loose Cultivator City for a few more years."
On the other side, the "battle" between Ancestor Xuan Yan and Ancestor Wen Qing was also coming to an end.
Even in the cultivation world, the saying "old ginger is spicier" still applies.
The older Xuan Yan Ancestor arrogantly defeated Wen Qing Yuan Zu. In the face of her helpless and unwilling gaze, he triumphantly decided that Tong Su should go to the Alchemy Pavilion to study first.
He certainly wanted Tongsu to go to the alchemy pavilion immediately, but he also knew that Tongsu had just come out of seclusion and was reunited with her senior brother after a long separation, so she would definitely stay a little longer. Therefore, he told her to go to the alchemy pavilion tomorrow and left with Yue Yuan first.
While I'm at it, I'll go back and arrange a pill-refining room for Tongsu.
On the way, he talked to Yue Yuan and said, "I always feel that Xiao Tong's senior brother's cultivation is not quite right."
"Master, what's wrong?"
Xuan Yan Dan Zu was a little puzzled: "He seems to be more than just a Nascent Soul cultivator. But if he is such a young Mahayana cultivator—how is that possible! Judging from his appearance, he can't possibly be two thousand years old. Apart from Jing Yang Immortal Lord, who is in seclusion in Ziwei Heavenly Palace, where else can there be such a talented cultivator?"
Yue Yuan exclaimed in surprise, "Then he couldn't possibly be Jingyang Xian..."
Xuan Yan Dan Zu glared at him: "Are you stupid? How could he possibly be! Would Immortal Lord Jingyang allow his junior sister to enter the Loose Cultivator City? But whether he is or not doesn't matter. The Loose Cultivator City doesn't care about background. No matter how strong he is, so what?"
Yue Yuan looked up hesitantly: "Master, if he's too strong, I'm scared. Please don't sell me out to deceive your students anymore. If that senior gets angry and comes knocking on our door, I won't be able to stop him!"
Xuan Yan Dan Zu chuckled dryly and muttered, "Who would have thought he and Xiao Tong would be a couple? The difference in their cultivation levels is just too great..."
He now understands why the male cultivator had seemed to harbor a subtle hostility towards him before.
That male cultivator was at least one or two thousand years old, while Xiao Tong had only just advanced to the Golden Core stage, and judging from her bone age, she was even less than twenty years old!
Not to mention, she secluded herself for three years before successfully advancing to the next level and emerging from seclusion.
Before she went into seclusion, she was at most fifteen or sixteen years old, with a Foundation Establishment cultivation level. If this male cultivator was with her at that time—
What a shameless lecherous old man who preys on young women!
The fact that Xuan Yan Dan Zu refrained from uttering a single curse like, "How dare you make your move so early? Are you trying to raise me? You're the one who's a heartless beast," already demonstrates the remarkable composure and cultivation of Xuan Yan Dan Zu.
He looked at his eldest apprentice with a wronged expression: "Tell me, can you guess they're a couple?"
Yue Yuan chuckled coldly, refusing to acknowledge his master.
Please, you're the only one who didn't notice, okay?
