The Fourth Elder stormed off to the Sect Master, shouting, "Sect Master, Sect Master, don't you know what the eldest brother has done?!"
"That bastard didn't even report the baby's situation! I saw it for myself today! The baby's spiritual power is pure white! And she even has a white mist barrier!"
The Fourth Elder rushed in in a panic. The Sect Master was still meditating and hadn't even had time to get up when he was startled: "What did you say?"
The Fourth Elder hurriedly repeated what had just happened, adding a lot of embellishments, and even explaining all of Nian Wanzhou's recent work.
He secretly plotted to lure Nian Wanzhou to join him in alchemy.
After hearing this, the sect leader frowned even more deeply: "A white mist barrier, pure white spiritual energy..."
He suddenly thought of something.
The ancestor had mentioned to him before that the white dragon from tens of thousands of years ago... was the same. Could it be that the little child is a reincarnation or a descendant?
"Why didn't the eldest brother tell me?" The sect leader grasped the key point, but didn't dwell on it. "Never mind, the eldest brother has been busy recuperating lately. He probably didn't tell me because he's not feeling well and can't come out."
"You keep an eye on things for the boss."
Then he added, "The young girl is practicing body cultivation, so don't always try to force her to refine pills. You have to proceed step by step, understand? Even if you want to, don't be too hasty. Guide her to refine pills with you little by little."
"Isn't her brother Nan Yu practicing alchemy with you? The two siblings are inseparable all the time, isn't it easy to guide them?"
He wasn't too optimistic about the little kid going into body cultivation, but it was his own choice, and he couldn't force or interfere; that wouldn't be reasonable.
But guiding is no problem!
The Fourth Elder slapped his thigh: "That's right! The Sect Master really has a way! I'll go right now! Hehehe~"
Then they happily skipped away.
Along the way, the Fourth Elder hummed a little tune and happily went back to find Nan Yu.
He planned to teach this talented young apprentice alchemy, and then gradually coax him to bring the little baby over to join him. That way, he would have another incredibly talented apprentice!
Hehehe~
It sounds wonderful!
When Nan Yu arrived at the Fourth Elder's alchemy room and saw him smiling like a fox, she immediately had a bad feeling: "Master... why did you call me here?"
As the Fourth Elder took out the pill formulas, he casually asked, "Nanyu, how long have you been planting medicinal herbs in the herb field?"
Nan Yu recalled for a moment: "It's only been a little over half a month. Master, what's wrong?"
"It's nothing, I just feel the time is right, and I should teach you some alchemy techniques." He prepared a suitable alchemy furnace for a beginner, and then took out an alchemy jade pendant and handed it to Nan Yu.
He smiled kindly: "Come, sit down. By the way, why didn't that little girl come?"
"Really? Master!"
Nan Yu was excited, but she also felt something was wrong, like she had been led into the jaws of a tiger. Yet, the person in front of her was her master.
Seeing that the Fourth Elder nodded, Nan Yu sat down with peace of mind and obediently replied, "I went to practice my body last night, Master."
"So diligent! We should invite her to come along another day, so she can help Master. Anyway, the new disciples aren't formally undergoing body tempering yet, and she's still young; she doesn't need to work so hard." The Fourth Elder spoke with an encouraging tone, "What do you say?"
Nan Yu wanted to laugh: "Yes, but Wanwan really enjoys practicing her body; it makes her days fulfilling."
"Every day? This little girl is quite persistent, no wonder she's a little dragon cub." He was even happier, wasn't that even better? "You should familiarize yourself with the alchemy furnace first. After you've looked at what's in the jade tube, I'll teach you how to formally refine pills."
"Yes, Master!" Nan Yu suppressed his excitement, grabbed the alchemy furnace and examined it carefully. Then he looked at the contents of the jade tube, not recognizing many of the characters.
However, the sect had a special place for teaching literacy, and under Nian Wanzhou's guidance, he studied diligently there for a long time.
Now I can barely recognize some characters.
If he didn't understand something, he would immediately ask his master.
...
The reason why the Grand Elder is called the Boss is because all six of them were disciples of the previous sect leader, while the sect leader was the last disciple of the ancestor before he failed to transcend the tribulation.
Although the sect leader was the same age as the elders, he was more like a senior uncle to them.
It's not easy to bring up seniority.
Later, after he became the sect leader, the elders started calling him that directly, and they would go directly to him to resolve any issues. (Most of the time, it was just the elders arguing or fighting, acting like old children. They actually had a good relationship, with elders protecting them, and their bickering went on for a long time.)
...
Back in Lexi's cave.
Le Xi lay on the ground, looking frustrated and devastated. Yes, on the ground.
He wasn't lying in his own bed.
During the two weeks he was confined, on the second day of his confinement, he heard that his senior sister had gone out to train. Concerned and anxious, Le Xi immediately wanted to rush out and go with Wei Wenru.
But the master's intention in confining him at this critical juncture was quite clear.
It's not just a simple punishment.
The intention was to tell him not to covet his senior sister and not to harm his fellow disciples.
His master had warned him many times. On the surface, he had restrained himself a lot, but he still secretly pestered his senior sister because he knew that she would not hold it against him too much because he was her junior brother.
The adorable girl's overprotective master wouldn't think that way.
In the past, when he framed his third junior brother, his master would directly beat him, but he would grit his teeth and persist, refusing to back down.
Now the master has found a way to control him...
Damn it.
With his senior sister gone, leaving him all alone, Le Xi felt extremely frustrated. He had considered sneaking out, but his master had placed a barrier around his cave, preventing him from leaving!
He had never been treated like this before. His master was really trying to protect him, to this extent. He felt like he was being driven crazy.
As for why he was lying on the ground...
Le Xi didn't want to tell anyone that he had tried to break through the restriction but was bounced back, so he simply lay on the ground and refused to get up.
Give up.
He also missed his senior sister very much, but unfortunately he couldn't leave and couldn't go with her.
As for cultivation, I've given up on that idea.
But now, only cultivation can make one forget all troubles, right? What else can one do?
Le Xi sighed. He truly knew he was wrong; he shouldn't have bullied his junior sister. "Master, I know I was wrong... Please let me out!!"
The silent pleas echoed through the empty mountains.
There was no response.
He felt like crying, but he sat up and meditated to start cultivating again.
Thus began a cycle of Lexi: breaking through the barrier - being bounced back - giving up - reflecting, wailing and crying - meditating.
