Gu Xiaochui's complexion regained its color, and his dark circles faded a bit. He nodded.
"Um."
It has to be said that although his master was a real pain, he still had some strength to some extent.
Take this elixir for example.
It's a bit ugly.
But the efficacy of the medicine has always been undeniable.
Rong Zi coughed twice and said earnestly, "You're just too timid. I'm doing this for your own good."
Gu Xiaochui's lips twitched violently. "For my own good?"
Is it for his own good to make him see ghosts every day?!
"Of course!" Rong Zi said without batting an eye, speaking in a serious tone. "That way you can build up your courage. Think about it, if you're not even afraid of ghosts, you won't be afraid of anything else in the future."
Gu Xiaochui almost laughed out of anger, "Then I really thank you."
"Tsk, why are you being so polite with your master?"
Gu Xiaochui: "..."
At this moment, Qi Yufei and Xi Ling'er, who were also riding swords, had already surrounded them.
They listened to the conversation between Rong Zi and Gu Xiaochui with Ling Mo, but they couldn't understand a single word of it.
What the hell?
Where are the ghosts?
Qi Yufei glanced at Yun Jing, who had already jumped off Ling Mo's sword and continued to ride his own sword, then looked at Gu Xiaochui, who was riding his sword carrying Rong Zi, and asked with a puzzled look, "Why did you two get here?"
Rong Zi then remembered this and asked a question.
"Yeah, what brings you all here? Weren't you supposed to be guarding the sect?"
Yun Jing replied, "A few days ago, when we went down the mountain to buy supplies, we overheard someone say that you had gone missing in the Demon Extermination Team. We were worried about you, so we came all the way here to look for you."
Gu Xiaochui added, "However, as soon as we arrived here, we heard that you didn't actually disappear, but rather that you deliberately set up a trap to expose the Xu family's crimes."
"But since we're already here, we can't just go back like this, so we came to find you."
Rong Zi understood.
The two kids must have been terrified when they heard the news of her disappearance.
Rong Zi patted Yun Jing's little head and said, "In that case, you can come with us to catch up with the main group."
Xi Ling'er leaned closer and asked a question.
"Master, who are they...?"
Gu Xiaochui and Yun Jing were both taken aback when they heard Xi Ling'er address Rong Zi.
"Master?"
They were so focused on talking to Rong Zi that they didn't notice Xi Ling'er, the pretty older sister.
Looking at her now, both Gu Xiaochui and Yun Jing could see it.
Xi Ling'er's cultivation level was clearly higher than theirs.
But... this beautiful older sister with considerable cultivation actually called their master "Master" right from the start.
What's going on?
Rong Zi slapped his forehead, "Oh dear, I almost forgot."
“This is your fifth junior sister.” She pointed to Xi Ling’er, then jumped onto Xi Ling’er’s sword and continued to introduce Yun Jing and Gu Xiaochui to her. “As for them, this is your senior brother Yun Jing, and this is your second senior brother Gu Xiaochui. You should all get to know each other.”
Xi Ling'er looked down at Yun Jing, her mind a little slow to process what was happening.
"Big...Senior Brother?"
who?
Who is her senior brother?
This child in front of me is not even ten years old?
Rong Zi nodded and said, "Yun Jing is the first disciple I took in, and he is the senior brother of all of you."
As Yun Jing listened to her introduction, she subconsciously straightened her back.
However, before he could even get into position, Rong Zi added another sentence.
"He is seven years old this year, and he is the youngest among you."
Yun Jing immediately deflated, tugged at Rong Zi's sleeve and whispered, "Is there any need to emphasize age?"
He's the senior disciple.
Although he is indeed the youngest, it would be too embarrassing to say it outright.
Just as Yun Jing was feeling embarrassed to look at Xi Ling'er, this beautiful older sister, Xi Ling'er suddenly said with an admiring expression, "As expected of Senior Brother, he has already reached the Foundation Establishment stage at the young age of seven. Truly extraordinary."
Yun Jing: ...Hmm?
Yun Jing stared blankly at her, then opened her mouth, "Sister, you..."
“You’re the eldest brother, so you can just call me fifth sister from now on.” Xi Ling’er corrected his form of address very seriously.
This situation completely baffled Yun Jing.
Since his master took him in, he has taken in so many disciples in succession, but Fifth Junior Sister is the first person who has unhesitatingly acknowledged him as the eldest senior brother and recognized his strength.
This beautiful lady...
Yun Jing gave Xi Ling'er a thumbs up and praised, "Fifth Junior Sister, you... have such good taste!"
Xi Ling'er was also stunned.
The eldest brother was the first person to praise her for having good taste.
Immediately, the two began to admire each other, finding each other more and more pleasing to the eye, and even developing a sense of mutual respect.
The others present: "..."
Seeing Yun Jing being praised, Gu Xiaochui also joined in, pointing to herself and saying, "Fifth Junior Sister, what about me?"
Xi Ling'er looked at him, "Second Senior Brother?"
"Mmm." Gu Xiaochui nodded vigorously.
“You…” Xi Ling’er looked him over a few more times and began to analyze him logically, “Your cultivation is not high, and you don’t seem to be young. I suppose your talent is not high. Second Senior Brother, you don’t seem to have anything special about you.”
Gu Xiaochui: "..."
have to!
The world where only he was injured was achieved...
That's true, though.
Compared to these talented contestants who all possess high-grade single spiritual roots, and some even have mutated single spiritual roots.
