"Forget it, it's better to rely on yourself than to ask others..."
Zhu Li sighed and said, "There are quite a few spiritual herbs and fruits here. Although they are not worth much money, they should be enough to cover your travel expenses."
"..."
Why does that sound so pitiful?
A scene inexplicably appeared in Shen Yunhao's mind.
At dusk, before the setting sun, Sister Li'er was dressed in a tattered linen shirt, her face showing signs of old age.
"Yunhao, to support your studies, I've already sold the family's ox. I'll pull the plow myself. You have to live up to my expectations..."
Then it transformed into a little white dragon, biting the reins, and plowed the field...
Two tears welled up in Shen Yunhao's eyes as he couldn't help but step forward and hug the little white dragon's massive body: "Sister Li'er, I will definitely live up to your expectations!"
Zhu Li looked completely bewildered.
It's just going out for a short trip, why are you making it sound like I'm going to die?
“Yunhao…” Zhuli looked at Shen Yunhao, who was about to cry, and her eyes were full of love: “I know you are reluctant to part with me, but all good things must come to an end!”
"Now that you've embarked on the path of cultivation, if you remain confined to this abyss, you'll only become a frog in a well. This vast world still needs you to explore it yourself..."
"How can one truly grow without experiencing setbacks..."
Although I grew up in Beihai, I rarely went out to see the world.
But isn't it only natural for an older sister to teach her younger brother?
Shen Yunhao blinked, suddenly snapping back to reality. He quickly stood up and coughed twice, saying, "Thank you... thank you for your trouble, Sister Li'er..."
"Stop talking like this..." Zhu Li glanced at him, a hint of reluctance flashing in her voice: "You've stabilized your cultivation. Once Danzi brings you those spiritual herbs, you should set off as soon as possible... After being missing for so long, you really should go home and visit..."
"Um……"
It wasn't until Zhu Li mentioned it that Shen Yunhao remembered that he... still had a home.
I wonder if Yao'er has come back after being away from home for four months.
"By the way, Yunhao, before you leave, there's one more thing I need to confirm!"
"Sister Li'er, please speak!"
"You haven't cultivated for eighteen years, yet you were able to break through to the tenth level of Qi Refining... the secret!"
...
A day later, Shen Yunhao rode on the dragon's back as he had wished.
Of course, I've ridden before, but those were just playing around with Zhuli, not real riding.
And this time...
Sitting on the white dragon's neck, Shen Yunhao gripped the dragon's horns tightly, lowered his body, and watched the white dragon rise from the bottom of the cave. The scene was still quite awe-inspiring.
Dragons are born with the ability to fly. Even newborn dragons, as long as their bodies are fully developed, can fly even without any spiritual energy.
Just like birds are born to fly, and fish are born to swim.
The dragon's power is largely due to these innate abilities.
They were located in a very deep underground cave on the side of the abyss, which was hundreds of meters deep.
The cave floor is spacious, but the exit on the surface above is not so large.
After Zhuli flew out of the cave, Shen Yunhao discovered that the cave entrance was surrounded by a group of green plants.
Moreover, according to Zhuli, this place not only shields perception but also creates an illusion, making it impossible to see the massive cave from a distance.
Even high-level cultivators would find it difficult to detect the existence of this cave unless they approached it closely and searched carefully.
Upon exiting the cave, Zhuli's body shimmered with illusory light, concealing her form. She flew low and crouched, only landing on the other side of the abyss.
This is the side where Lin Yuan City is located. If you go straight ahead forty or fifty miles, you will reach the north gate of Lin Yuan City.
Shen Yunhao rolled off, and Bailong lay prostrate on the ground. Both of them had a look of reluctance in their eyes.
Unfortunately, even now, Zhuli still refuses to transform into human form to meet him...
"Sister Li'er..."
For some unknown reason, after Zhuli used her divine sense to examine his body yesterday, his mood inexplicably became depressed.
But when the time came to part, all other emotions were overshadowed by reluctance.
"Yun Hao..." A hint of tears welled up in the little white dragon's enormous eyes: "Be careful on the road, and come back soon..."
"Yes!" Shen Yunhao nodded vigorously. "I'll rush back as soon as I get the Jade Lingzhi. Sister Li'er, you must wait for me! Even if..."
He took a deep breath and, for the first time, spoke firmly to his sister Li'er: "Even if you want to go back to Beihai, you have to wait until I get back before we talk about it, otherwise... otherwise I will never acknowledge you as my sister again!"
Zhu Li's face showed relief, and her tone returned to the gentle tenderness she had when they first met: "I will definitely wait for you! I won't leave until Yun Hao comes back!"
Upon hearing this, Shen Yunhao boldly stepped forward, kissed the dragon's forehead, and then turned and left with satisfaction.
"Sister Li'er! Wait for me! You must wait for me!"
Shouting as they fled the place as if their lives depended on it!
Only after Shen Yunhao completely disappeared from sight did the white dragon light up and slowly transform into a young woman dressed in a silver robe.
Her long, snow-white hair fell from her shoulders, gently draped over her chest, and swayed slightly.
The woman was still stunning, flawless.
This time, the blush on the Seventh Princess's cheeks made her look even more vivid and lovely, like a fairy descended from heaven, captivating the heart.
Zhu Li blushed and looked in the direction Shen Yunhao had left. In the end, she pouted and muttered a soft rebuke.
"Fool, you already have a wife, yet you still act so shamelessly... kissing people indiscriminately..."
Thinking of this, Zhuli seemed to remember something else, and her expression suddenly turned somber.
"No wonder...no wonder he was able to break through to the tenth level of Qi Refining in one go. They've already...become like that? That girl...is actually willing to sacrifice so much for him..."
"And this idiot is still letting her down, foolishly going to kiss other girls..."
"So, should I tell him or not..."
"As the older sister, Yunhao owes that girl so much kindness, how can he just stand by and do nothing?"
"But...but Yunhao might not necessarily like her. He clearly said she's ugly...If he uses that to blackmail her, how can Yunhao be happy?"
"Oh dear! Never mind! I'm just an older sister he took in halfway through his life, and I worry about him more than his mother does! Let's go after him first."
As he said this, Zhuli stuffed the little clam spirit, who was peeking out with a puzzled look on its face, into his robe, and then flew away as a white light.
While seemingly conflicted, their stance is actually very clear.
If I really wanted to say it, I would have told Shen Yunhao yesterday when my divine sense detected a primordial yin energy nourishing his meridians. Why wait until now?
Since the reason wasn't explained at the beginning, how can there be an opportunity to speak up later?
She always calls others a silly boy, but isn't she a silly girl herself?
