The morning light filtered through the mottled leaves, casting a shadow over the tranquil courtyard. I was leisurely sitting on a stone bench in the courtyard, scrolling through my phone, immersed in the anecdotes of the world of immortal cultivation.
Suddenly, the phone screen lit up and a video call from my eldest brother came in.
I swiped the answer button and heard my elder brother talking about the leaders of various sects coming to visit.
I was stunned, my brows furrowed, and I started to wonder, "Why do they want to see me? I don't even know them."
Although he was reluctant, he knew that he could not shirk this matter, so he stood up slowly and walked out of the yard with heavy steps.
As soon as I walked out of the hospital, I saw Su Qiyuan and Chen Fang standing not far away.
Su Qiyuan had sharp eyes. When he saw me come out, a bright smile instantly broke out on his face. That smile seemed to be able to dispel the slight chill in the early morning.
He smiled and joked, "Ling'er, you got up so early today. Didn't you sleep in? Why do you look so worried? Did someone make my Ling'er unhappy?"
I pursed my lips and told me what my brother had told me.
Su Qiyuan nodded slightly, his eyes revealing some understanding and determination, and said: "It's understandable that they want to see you."
Come on, the brothers will accompany you.
Chen Fang also walked up to me with a smile and patted my shoulder.
The three of us walked side by side, our clothes fluttering in the wind. In just a moment, we arrived at the foot of the sect mountain.
When I looked up, I saw my father and elder brother were already waiting there.
Father Bai saw me coming and hurried over to greet me with a smile. Although he had a smile on his face, he couldn't hide his fatigue. He said, "Ling'er, you have to help Dad this time. Dad has been receiving dozens of calls a day for this matter these days. I really can't refuse."
I walked forward, nodded obediently and said, "Dad, don't worry, I will meet them. But what is going on?"
Father Bai sighed slightly and was about to speak when he heard a noisy sound coming from the bottom of the mountain.
Turning around, I saw a group of people running towards the mountain gate happily.
My eldest brother's expression became stern. He took a step forward and stood in front of us. Su Qiyuan and Chen Fang also slightly turned sideways, vaguely protecting me behind them.
When this group of people came closer, they looked at us, and then saw me and shouted excitedly, "Master, we finally see you."
Then a group of monks came forward with gifts in their hands to give them to me.
I looked at these excited monks in astonishment and subconsciously took a step back.
Their eyes were filled with fanaticism and reverence, and they kept calling out "Master" as if I were some highly respected and well-known figure.
Bai's father and eldest brother also looked surprised, and were obviously confused by this sudden situation.
Su Qiyuan and Chen Fang watched these people warily.
When I heard what they said, I suddenly remembered a wave of inexplicable enthusiasm that has been sweeping the Internet recently. Somehow, everyone regards me as an omnipotent master.
I quickly raised my voice and explained, "My fellow Taoists, I'm really just a cell phone seller. I'm unworthy of the title of Master. You must have misunderstood me. Please go back!"
However, everyone ignored my words and not only did they not show any intention of leaving, but they became more and more excited. Everyone had a fanatical look on their face and was desperate to squeeze towards me.
Seeing this scene, I didn't think twice and reacted instinctively and ran away.
Only the group of people were left standing there blankly, looking at each other, and looking disheveled and at a loss in the wind.
Father Bai looked at the chaotic situation and sighed helplessly. He shook his head and turned to his eldest brother, Su Qiyuan, and Chen Fang and said, "Ling'er, although she has achieved great cultivation, she is still childish. You guys, hurry up and chase her back. Don't let her run away."
My eldest brother responded and immediately took Su Qiyuan and Chen Fang to chase in the direction I fled.
At this moment, I was just running forward desperately, completely unaware that someone was chasing me from behind. I only wanted to find a place to hide and avoid these fanatical "disciples".
At this time, I had unknowingly run to Dongling City.
The three of them were chasing after him, and Su Qiyuan shouted from behind, "Ling'er, stop running!"
When I heard the sound, I was shocked to find myself on the bustling street of Dongling City.
Su Qiyuan stopped in front of me with a look of helplessness and doting in his eyes, and said, "Ling'er, why are you running? With your cultivation level, who in the world of immortal cultivation can easily hurt you?"
I scratched my head a little embarrassedly and said awkwardly, "It's just an instinctive reaction, hehe."
Then, my eyes lit up and I said excitedly: "I haven't been to Dongling City for a long time. How about Su Qiyuan and I take you to Dongling Pavilion to have a look."
However, before we even reached Dongling Pavilion, we were recognized.
"Isn't this the young master of Dongling Pavilion?"
"No, this is Master!" A cultivator suddenly shouted. When the people around heard it, they were immediately in an uproar and gathered around.
Without saying a word, I grabbed Su Qiyuan and the others and turned and ran.
Those monks refused to give up and kept chasing while shouting "Master, Master". The scene was quite lively.
At this moment, above Dongling City, several old monster immortal emperors were passing by. They were attracted by the noisy scene in the city below and couldn't help but stop.
After seeing that it was me, they quickly spoke out to stop me. One of the Immortal Emperors shouted, "Little Fairy, we finally found you! Quickly restore our North Sea Immortal's spiritual network."
I heard the sound and subconsciously looked up at the sky. I saw several old men looking at me with smiles on their faces, their eyes full of anxiety.
I quickly waved my hands and explained, "Seniors, it's not that I don't want to restore the network, it's just that when I restore the network in your area, the network in other places is disconnected."
When the old monsters heard this, they immediately became anxious. One of them waved his hand, and countless spirit stones poured down from the sky like shining meteors. He said, "Little fairy, we don't lack spirit stones. These are all given to you as our filial piety."
I looked at the scattered spiritual stones, my eyes suddenly widened, and I stared at them like a money-grubber.
“Oh my god, this is just throwing money away!”
I cried out in surprise, quickly bent down to pick up a piece and looked at it in my hand, then called out to everyone: "Hurry up and pick it up, these are all spiritual stones!"
But the cultivators below were unmoved. Not only did they not pick up the spirit stones, but they looked at the Immortal Emperors angrily and shouted, "We also have spirit stones, and we don't want the spirit network to be broken!"
Then we saw the cultivators from Dongling City competing with the Immortal Emperors in the sky. Neither side gave in, and each of them piled up the spirit stones into a small hill. The scene was spectacular.
At this time, many monks were either filming videos or broadcasting live.
At this point, the news spread quickly on the Internet, and more and more people flew into Dongling City from all directions, wanting to compete with the Beihai Holy Land.
