Various thoughts flashed through his mind, and time passed little by little, but it did not stop him from keeping an eye on Hongxuan.
Hongxuan, who was meditating on the couch, twitched his eyelids and his eyelashes trembled. The next moment, he finished his meditation and opened his eyes.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw his father sitting beside him, watching over him. The little guy was touched and happy and rushed to his father, "Father!"
Fourth Master looked Hongxuan up and down and saw that he looked very energetic, so he asked him how he felt after his cultivation.
The little guy answered truthfully, saying exactly what he felt, without hiding anything from Fourth Master.
After hearing this, the Fourth Master nodded in satisfaction, "Not bad. From now on, you should meditate for another hour at this time every day."
The little guy thought about how he seemed to be freely and comfortably roaming in another space while meditating, and immediately nodded in agreement.
Fourth Master was even more pleased to see his serious attitude.
"Oh, right, today is the day you can go back to your mother's place to stay." Fourth Master suddenly remembered this and immediately said to Hongxuan.
"Yes!" Speaking of his mother, he hadn't seen her for many days and missed her.
Of course, he also missed the food his mother made. After all, he hadn't eaten such delicious food for several days. So, he said excitedly, "Father, Xuan'er will go back to Taoyuan in a while."
"Ahem!" Fourth Master cleared his throat twice, interrupting the little guy.
"What's wrong, Father?" The little guy suddenly had a bad feeling and couldn't help but tense up, staring intently at his father, as if that could ward off the bad feeling.
Fourth Master glanced at Hongxuan, thinking to himself, "He's quite perceptive," but said calmly, "Father just sent someone to tell your mother that you won't be going back today or tomorrow."
"What!" The little guy was stunned, as if struck by lightning.
Fourth Master didn't care whether he was confused or not, and continued to speak, "Since you are just beginning to practice the Shangqing Scripture, you will need someone to protect you and watch over you. So for the time being, you will have to stay in the front yard."
"What do you mean by 'short time'?" the little guy asked, dumbfounded.
Fourth Master looked at Hongxuan and uttered a few words from his thin lips, "One month."
"Ah!" The little guy was struck by lightning again, and he cried out, "No!"
"Yes!" Fourth Master rejected with a single word.
"Father, we're going back to Mother's place. I need to cultivate now. I'll go back here to cultivate, and then I'll go back to Mother's place," the little guy pleaded.
Fourth Master thought for a moment and nodded, "That's fine too."
"Great!" The little guy jumped up excitedly.
"However..." The Fourth Master's nasty pause stung the little guy, who immediately suppressed his excitement and stared intently at the Fourth Master, afraid that he might say something bad.
"You still can't go back to your mother's place for the next couple of days."
"Why?" the little guy protested, his eyes wide.
Fourth Master said slowly, "Gao Wuyong should have just told your mother about you. You were punished for being naughty and didn't have time to go back."
"Oh, is that so!" The little guy sighed, looking at Fourth Master with particularly resentful eyes. Why did he come up with such an excuse!
"besides……"
"besides?!"
Fourth Master nodded and said, "Yes, there's more!"
"Alright then!" The little guy listened intently. "Father, you continue."
Fourth Master looked at Hongxuan with a serious expression and solemnly said, "Your cultivation of the Shangqing Scripture must be kept a secret. This is a secret between you and your father. Only your father and you can know it. No one else can be told."
"No one can tell?!" The little guy's eyes widened in surprise at how serious it was.
The Fourth Master solemnly repeated once more, "No one can tell!"
Seeing his father's serious and solemn expression, the little guy's expression also became serious.
He nodded emphatically in agreement: "Father, Xuan'er knows. Xuan'er won't tell anyone. This is a secret between Xuan'er and Father, a secret between the two of you."
"Very good!" Fourth Master patted Hongxuan's head approvingly and praised, "That's it."
After being praised and patted on the head by his father, the little guy rubbed against his father's palm contentedly and chuckled.
Then, the Fourth Master gave him some instructions on cultivation precautions: try to cultivate when no one is around, try to avoid people, and cultivate with a trusted person watching over him.
If anyone discovers that you are meditating and cultivating, just say that you are practicing a martial arts manual that your father specially found for you...
The Fourth Master rambled on and on.
Taoyuan, I've finally packed everything up.
Upon seeing the packed items, Jiaming immediately felt embarrassed and slightly ashamed. "Hehe, there's quite a lot of stuff!"
Gao Wuyong looked at the "quite a lot of things" and his eyes twitched. There were indeed quite a lot of things, and he couldn't carry them back to the front yard with just his two hands.
Jiaming knew that Gao Wuyong couldn't take it all by himself, so she immediately thought of him and said, "No need for Steward Su to take it yourself. I'll send someone with these things. You can lead them there and they can come back on their own after delivering the items."
Gao Wuyong's eyes twitched again. What was this Princess Guarjia saying? After delivering the goods, why didn't they come back on their own? Were they supposed to stay in the front yard? They weren't even from the front yard.
Or would someone need to deliver it back? It's obviously impossible.
