Chapter 71: The Frail Beauty Whose Life Was Extended by the Immortal Cultivator (26)
A flash of red flashed through her mind. She seemed to have seen such a handsome man before...
But his aura was completely different, and he was wearing a bright red dress.
Even when stared at like that, Bai Qiulan's face remained as calm as usual.
But only he himself knew that the fingertips hidden under his sleeves had involuntarily curled up slightly, and the power he showed towards Xiao Yuheng was gradually withdrawn.
Xiao Yuheng breathed a sigh of relief, something was wrong.
——Bai Qiulan, there is something wrong with him.
Just as Xiao Yuheng fell into deep thought, trying to find the source of this uneasy feeling, Bai Qiulan, who had been silent the entire time, suddenly spoke up, "This girl's spiritual veins are severely damaged, which is related to her life experience. I have been entrusted with the task of taking good care of her, so I intend to take her under my wing and repair her damaged spiritual veins."
What? Everyone present was stunned at the same time.
Accept Qingwu as your disciple?
Everyone knows that the Qiuhen Immortal Venerable Bai Qiulan has boundless magical powers and is only one step away from ascending to become an immortal.
For thousands of years, he has been heartless and indifferent, does not understand love, and does not accept disciples. He is alone in pursuit of the great way.
Why did you suddenly have the idea of accepting a disciple?
And...she is such a weak mortal woman.
For a moment, all the ambiguous looks were cast at Qingwu.
Qing Wu was also full of confusion. Faced with so many gazes, she subconsciously turned her gaze to Xiao Yuheng beside her.
Xiao Yuheng's face was solemn, his eyes were heavy, and he clasped his hands together as he asked the Qiuhen Immortal Venerable, "Excuse me, Qiuhen Immortal Venerable, why did you suddenly decide to accept Awu as your disciple?"
"Ah Heng! Don't be rude to the Immortal Lord!"
The powerful pressure from the top strong man suddenly increased.
The pressure was so terrifying that Xiao Yuheng found it difficult to breathe.
Qingwu keenly noticed Xiao Yuheng's abnormality, and her beautiful eyes revealed deep worry.
She quickly reached out to hold Xiao Yuheng's arm, "Ah Heng..."
The moment Qingwu's hand touched Xiao Yuheng, the suffocating pressure miraculously eased a little.
Bai Qiulan, who was standing not far away, frowned slightly upon seeing this, but eventually spoke slowly. "She is Senior Sister Ning's daughter."
Xiao Yuheng was stunned.
The sect leader and his wife were also stunned, and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
Ning Xiyun, the senior sister Ning mentioned by Bai Qiulan, is the former leader of Wansheng Sect and a senior respected by everyone.
He was also a great Mahayana master who died.
All people knew about this powerful woman was that she died while destroying the ancient monster Xuluan.
But little do they know that there is actually an unknown inside story.
It is said that Nasu Luan can transform into a human form. At that time, he transformed into a young man seeking immortality and was accepted as a disciple by Ning Xiyun.
No one expected that during the thousand years of companionship, love would gradually blossom between the two.
Just when Ning Xiyun decided to become a Taoist partner with Xu Luan regardless of all the rumors, someone with ulterior motives accidentally discovered Xu Luan's true identity as a monster.
You must know that as a monster, its whole body is a treasure, and there are countless people coveting it.
When Ning Xiyun was being hunted by everyone, she was already pregnant with Qingwu.
At the critical moment, for the sake of Ning Xiyun and their daughter, Xu Luan couldn't bear it anymore, so he immediately decided to self-destruct his demon pill.
The demon pill turned into a spirit bead and was sent into Ning Xiyun's body.
On the surface, Ning Xiyun killed the monster with great righteousness.
A farce ended just like that.
However, Ning Xiyun was devastated by the loss of her beloved and had no interest in cultivation or sect affairs.
She felt that everyone in the sect was cold-blooded and heartless.
Sometimes the human heart is more terrifying than the pure heart of a monster.
If it weren't for the baby in her belly, she wouldn't want to care about anything in this world.
Unexpectedly, even so, there are still people coveting the demon pill in Ning Xiyun's body.
Because the union of humans and demons is not easy, Xu Luan's inner elixir is to nourish Qing Wu and allow her to be born safely.
However, for some people, the temptation of the demon core of the ancient demon beast is too great.
There is always a loophole in a perfect plan. Although Ning Xiyun was careful and cautious at all times, she was unfortunately caught in the trap.
At an unknown time and place, she was invaded by a strange poison, which greatly reduced her power.
At this moment, several powerful men with profound cultivation suddenly appeared. They joined forces to cast powerful spells, trying to forcibly remove the demon pill from Ning Xiyun's body.
As for whether the baby in her womb could survive, these people obviously didn't care.
At that critical moment of life and death, Ning Xiyun used all her skills to forcibly separate Qingwu, who was not yet full-term, from her body and let her be born into this world prematurely.
Immediately afterwards, Ning Xiyun sent the newly born Qingwu to the mortal world without hesitation.
In order to ensure Qingwu's safety, Ning Xiyun spent a lot of effort to set up an extremely solid barrier.
The mortal world is so vast that it is difficult to explore, so we can only leave it in vain.
However, because Qingwu left the mother's body too early, she was unable to fully absorb the nutrients she deserved from her mother's body.
Coupled with her special half-demon, half-human bloodline, she has been extremely weak since birth.
However, if someone could take care of Qingwu and help her repair her damaged spiritual veins, then with the powerful blood of ancient monsters and great Mahayana masters flowing in her body, Qingwu actually possesses quite good talent and qualifications.
Bai Qiulan's face was as calm as water, with no ripples between his eyebrows. He said in a cold but clear voice:
"Senior Sister Ning and I are from the same sect. Before she died, Senior Sister Ning asked me to take good care of her daughter. Now that her daughter has appeared in Wansheng Sect, I will do my best."
However, if it was just for the purpose of taking care of her, there was no need to accept her as a disciple. A trace of doubt flashed through the sect leader's mind.
But no one dared to question the decision made by Immortal Master Qiu Hen.
In fact, Bai Qiulan has been secretly taking care of Qingwu over the years that Qingwu has grown up.
Ning Xiyun is Bai Qiulan's only senior sister.
At that time, he was practicing the ruthless way, but he was not yet so inhumane. It was Senior Sister Ning who patiently taught him many Taoist methods and ways of cultivation.
Because of this, Bai Qiulan has some respect for her senior sister Ning Xiyun.
Since Ning Xiyun died, Bai Qiulan decided to follow her last wishes. Not only did he strengthen the barrier for Qingwu's courtyard every year, he also continued to supply spiritual power to Qingwu so that Qingwu could grow up safely and smoothly.
Anyway, it's just a piece of cake for him.
