If we're talking about people who could easily catch Liu Zixing right now, it's probably only Tang Bao, and even he might not be able to guarantee he could catch him.
"What did your master tell you to do here?"
"Lock... Tiger Sword!" The middle-aged Taoist priest tried his best to explain his mission, fearing that he would be beaten again.
Senior Brother Lin frowned slightly, his gaze shifting to the ancient sword, whose entire blade was embedded in the ground, with some surprise and confusion.
Who would have thought it was all for this ancient sword?
Tang Bao, still confused by the middle-aged Taoist priest's words, curiously asked Senior Brother Lin, "Senior Brother, what did he mean?"
Senior Brother Lin smiled and pointed to the ancient sword, saying, "He said it was to protect this sword!"
The middle-aged Taoist priest nodded hurriedly in agreement with Senior Brother Lin's words, looking at Tang Bao pleadingly.
Well, you know what, even though this little three or four-year-old is so young, he can hit harder than an adult.
At this moment, the middle-aged Taoist priest truly dared not offend Tang Bao any further.
Tang Bao immediately became curious, and with her short legs, she jumped into the deep pit and ran towards the ancient sword. "This sword?"
Tang Bao and Senior Brother Lin stood around the ancient sword that was stuck in the ground.
After examining it closely, Senior Brother Lin exclaimed in utter astonishment, "This ancient sword possesses immense power!"
Tangbao squatted down, her chubby little hands supporting her chin. "This sword looks so familiar. I feel like I've seen it somewhere before!"
Upon hearing Tang Bao's words, Senior Brother Lin was very curious and surprised. He had more knowledge than Tang Bao, but now Tang Bao actually said that she recognized this sword.
"You know where you've seen it?"
Tangbao tilted her little head, her big, bright eyes darting around. "Tangbao, think! I can't think of anything right now!"
It's actually quite difficult to recall it all at once.
"It's alright, no rush. Judging from its condition, this sword has probably been here for many years!"
However, Tang Bao's memory wasn't very good to begin with, so it immediately rang in her mind. She jumped three feet high, "Oh my, Tang Bao remembers! It's Brother Xian! Brother Xian showed me a picture of a sword, and it looks just like this sword!"
"Fu Sixuan?"
Upon hearing this name, Senior Brother Lin felt a complex mix of emotions.
That's right, the real name of the "fairy brother" that Tang Bao mentioned is Fu Sixuan.
The reason why Tang Bao calls Fu Sixuan "Brother Xian" is because when she was a child, she mispronounced his name and called him "Brother Xian" instead of "Brother Xian".
After getting used to it, and because Fu Sixuan also felt that it was a special way Tang Bao addressed him, he naturally didn't ask Tang Bao to change it and just kept calling him Brother Xian.
This Fu Sixuan was the apprentice of their master's old friend. He was frail and sickly when he was young, so his mother entrusted him to his master.
His master couldn't cure his illness, but he later sought out their master and was cured. Since then, he has come to their Xuanqing Temple for acupuncture treatment every now and then.
However, since the master passed away, Tang Bao has been in charge. After that, if Fu Sixuan wanted acupuncture treatment, he would go to Tang Bao, and the two often hung out together.
Moreover, whenever Fu Sixuan comes to Xuanqing Temple, Tang Bao will no longer stick to their master and fellow disciples, but to that brat.
Every time he thinks of the two little ones stuck together, Senior Brother Lin feels a sour taste all over his body.
Seeing how much Tang Bao cares about Fu Sixuan, Senior Brother Lin couldn't help but feel jealous again, his heart filled with sourness!
"Yes, yes!" Tang Bao, unaware of Senior Brother Lin's bitterness, immediately nodded excitedly. "Brother Xian said they've been searching for this sword, saying it's their heirloom sword, and only by possessing it can one truly become the sect leader!"
Senior Brother Lin stroked his chin, somewhat surprised, and pondered, "I seem to have heard that their sect does have such a sword!"
Because their masters were friends, Senior Brother Lin had some understanding of Fu Sixuan's sect and had heard that they had lost a sword hundreds of years ago.
They disappeared along with their current leader, and their descendants have put in a lot of effort to find them, but have never been able to.
I never expected that the ancient sword would appear here.
"Right, right! Tangbao has seen it! It looks somewhat like her!"
"Let me ask him!"
As she spoke, Tangbao immediately turned on her children's smartwatch.
However, when she opened the phone, she found that she couldn't make any calls at all, and Tangbao's face immediately fell.
We are now deep in the mountains, and even deeper in this cave, where there is absolutely no signal.
Senior Brother Lin was pleased with this and reassured Tang Bao with a gentle smile, "There's no signal here, let's talk about it when we get back!"
"Okay!" Although Tang Bao was disappointed, she still nodded obediently. However, her gaze fell on the ancient sword again, and her little face showed a hint of expectation. "Tang Bao wants to draw this sword and give it to Brother Xian first!"
Senior Brother Lin immediately felt jealous, looking at the sword as if he were looking at that wolf cub Fu Sixuan.
Back when he was on the mountain, Tang Bao always clung to that brat, ignoring even his fellow disciples. Tang Bao was like that brat's sticky candy, always following him around.
"Let's ask him when we get back. What if it's not true?"
"It's okay! Sugar can also be given to Brother Fairy! I'm sure Brother Fairy will really like the gift Sugar gives him!"
Senior Brother Lin felt his mouth was filled with a strong sour taste, like lemons.
Why does it feel like my own cabbage has been stolen?
This brat still holds such a high place in his junior sister's heart!
They're like a persistent ghost!
Tang Bao gripped the sword hilt with her chubby hands, trying to pull it out, but found that she couldn't pull it out no matter what she did.
"Senior Brother, why can't we pull it out?"
Senior Brother Lin was in a great mood. It would be best if he couldn't pull it out, because if he couldn't, Tang Bao wouldn't think of giving Fu Sixuan that sword!
"It's alright, if you can't pull it out, so be it! Anyway, your immortal brother won't care about this sword!"
Tang Bao puffed out her cheeks angrily, still somewhat unwilling, and stomped her little feet, "This is a gift for Brother Xian, Tang Bao must pull it out!"
After saying that, Tang Bao hugged the ancient sword again, trying to pull it out but still couldn't.
Senior Brother Lin felt even more envious, jealous, and resentful. What did that brat do to deserve this?
However, Senior Brother Lin couldn't let Tang Bao down, so he comforted her, "The reason this ancient sword can't be pulled out isn't just because it's stuck in the ground, but also because it's the core of a sealing array!"
Tang Bao tilted her round little head, blinked her bright eyes, and looked curiously at Senior Brother Lin, "The core of the formation?"
