He was a carefree dragon, but he could also see that Elder Pei's lifespan was coming to an end.
Although Elder Pei was a bit old-fashioned and serious, he always sat in the first row because he received special instruction from his master and was often praised by the old man.
He scratched his head, as if he felt a tightness in his chest and didn't want to just watch Elder Pei die.
Song Tingwan looked at him gently, "Do you want me to help him?"
She already had a plan in mind, but she was curious about her apprentice's opinion.
Baili Xijiang looked at her carefully for a few moments, unable to discern her meaning. After thinking for a while, he decided to tell the truth: "Elder Pei is quite good. Today, when I heard him talk about his youthful vigor, I didn't know how to describe it. It's like how others have been looking at Master these past few days—I feel a little sorry for him."
Song Tingwan smiled, the ribbon binding her black hair fluttering in the wind. She nodded, "He shares my path, how could I stand idly by?"
Elder Pei Yuan's difficulty lies in his inner conflict, not simply in the process of breaking through to the seventh rank.
Let her think about it.
.
In the evening, after giving her apprentice extra training at the outer waterfall as usual, Song Tingwan had just returned to her room when a sinister aura suddenly appeared before her.
"You're here?"
Upon hearing this, Ling appeared and said, "Shentu Changqing has been settled at the foot of the mountain. What are your plans, Master?"
Song Tingwan leaned back on her cloud-shaped couch, which was covered with a blanket, and asked lazily, "Does it have a tail?"
No.
She breathed a sigh of relief, sat up straight, and looked at him seriously.
"Please trouble you to make a trip to the demon realm for me."
The ghostly figure paused for a moment, then said, "Okay."
He agreed readily, and she smiled. "I haven't finished yet. I need you to escort Shentu Changqing to a shop called Yuejige. Once you get there, smash this."
She flipped through the rings and took out the bracelet that the Fox Clan Venerable had given her.
If you take it out within the demon realm and break the bracelet, you can summon that beautiful fox.
A wisp of ghostly energy enveloped the bracelet and merged into his body.
"yes."
Having received the mission, the ghostly figure vanished instantly, leaving not a trace of its ghostly aura in the room.
Song Tingwan smiled thoughtfully. Fortunately, Beihe didn't let Ling escort her last time. However, Ling's cultivation level was higher than that of the Demon King, so the resentment affecting the ghosts should not affect Ling.
She took the opportunity to chat with Mrs. Zhuang yesterday. The couple had kept in touch, and she revealed that she had a shop that needed someone to manage it. Mrs. Zhuang immediately said that her husband was very willing to help her.
The couple both felt that following Song Meizi would definitely bring them unexpected opportunities.
I am very determined to follow her.
Song Tingwan said helplessly that she wasn't working for free; she would give Shen Tu a share of the profits.
The couple, who were used to being poor in Beihe, were even more grateful and vowed to follow her to the death. Song Tingwan had no choice but to pull Zhuang Niang aside and say that there was no need for such formalities.
Yueji Pavilion is doing well in the demon realm. She wants to send Shentu Changqing there for a few months before opening Yueji Pavilion in the cultivation realm.
When it comes to loving beauty, female cultivators are no less capable of spending money than female demons.
.
Before we knew it, the Lantern Festival arrived.
The elders were aware of the excitement of the day and dismissed their disciples early.
Qin Xi dragged Song Tingwan back to choose a dress. The two spent a long time choosing in the room, and finally, dressed up like fairies, they went out.
Baili Xijiang was still wearing a gilded robe, with jewels, gems, and gold piled all over his body, making Wanqiji stand out as exceptionally simple.
Song Tingwan and Qin Xi exchanged a glance, pondering what excuse they could use to buy their friend a nice robe while they went shopping later.
Now all that's missing is Ayao.
Song Tingwan looked in the direction of Jianfeng with a puzzled expression. No matter what they agreed on, her younger sister always arrived early. Why hadn't she come yet today?
Suddenly, the communication talisman vibrated.
—Sister, you go first. Master has a distinguished guest visiting. I will come to find you later.
Song Tingwan said helplessly to her companions, and Baili Xijiang said nonchalantly, "Then let's go shopping first, and choose lanterns when my sister arrives."
"Since my sister has said so, let's go shopping first."
He also took the opportunity to find an excuse to send Wan Qiji some clothes.
Qin Xi winked at Song Tingwan, who nodded knowingly.
The group chatted as they descended the mountain.
"Aji, your sword is so big, why can't you control it like a sword cultivator?"
Baili Xijiang stared at his good brother's broadsword, looking utterly bewildered.
"What's that called? Others use swords, but Aji uses knives? Hahahaha."
Qin Xi couldn't help but tease him.
Wan Qiji touched his precious sword with his backhand, puzzled, and replied awkwardly, "Uh... I've never heard of anyone controlling a sword."
He didn't want to fly through the sky on his big sword.
It's so bad that just thinking about it makes me want to close my eyes.
Song Tingwan laughed out loud, "Alright, why are you teasing Aji? Why don't you mention the Imperial Alchemy Furnace, hahaha."
"Hey! Maybe I should ask my sister how to fly on a sword later, and next time I'll try to see if the alchemy furnace can fly!"
Upon hearing this, Baili Xijiang became even more excited, eagerly considering which alchemy furnace would look the most spectacular when it flew up.
They chatted and laughed as they descended the mountain.
This was Song Tingwan's first time witnessing the Lantern Festival in the cultivation world.
Ordinary people and cultivators strolled through the streets and alleys together. It was not yet late, but the celestial lanterns were already shining brightly in the sky.
The bird-shaped lanterns that truly seem to fly in the sky, the lotus lanterns that symbolize stepping on lotus blossoms, and the cloud lanterns that follow along amidst swirling smoke, make them appear like celestial maidens descending to earth.
There is also a revolving lantern-like lamp of reincarnation, inside which are three small worlds created by the lamp maker. You can enter your consciousness into them and see a magnificent scene or a vast world where a divine phoenix soars.
