Concern from my senior
Chu Li's gaze slowly moved down to the fox in her arms, a hint of disbelief in her eyes.
Indeed, if it is truly the master's newly accepted disciple, then according to the order, it is indeed her eighth junior brother.
Nan Yi flicked his long tail, the fiery red tail drawing a graceful arc in the air.
Immediately afterwards, Chu Li's arms were empty, and the fiery red figure flashed and transformed into a young man beside her.
Like the two foxes before him, his eyes were upturned at the corners, a characteristic inherent to the fox clan's dashing nature, but when paired with his expression at this moment...
He suddenly exuded a cold aura, and Chu Li had a feeling that he was rejecting anyone's approach.
The sect leader also vaguely sensed that something was amiss between the human and the fox, but she wisely refrained from bringing it up.
Actually, there was a reason why she accepted this fox clan disciple. An old acquaintance from the fox clan had repeatedly pleaded in his letters, saying that if Nan Yi did not become her disciple, the fox clan would be doomed.
She softened her heart, thinking that it was just one more disciple, so she accepted him.
However, the purpose revealed by the two fox clan members during their conversation today seemed to go beyond simply her taking on disciples.
However, these things can be considered later. Since she has already agreed to take on a disciple, she naturally cannot go back on her word.
The sect leader raised her hand, and a square book appeared out of thin air. She handed it to Nan Yi: "Come, put spiritual energy into it, and the sect's domain will recognize you from now on."
This is actually a record book, a kind of magical artifact, in which the auras of all the disciples of the Myriad Manifestations Sect are recorded.
As long as they are disciples of this sect, all realms within the Myriad Manifestations Sect will spare their lives.
After Nan Yi finished channeling his spiritual energy, the sect leader immediately put away the record book and took out a spirit key. "It will take you to your residence. Take a rest for the next few days."
The sect leader quickly finished explaining everything, then flicked his sleeve and sent Nan Yi to the door.
Nan Yi stood outside the door, his head slightly lowered, his expression hidden in the shadows. The spirit key was already emitting light, constantly waving in front of his eyes.
He waited for a while, but the door in front of him showed no sign of opening, so he turned around and followed the spirit key.
Inside the Hall of No Form.
The sect leader took a small step forward, wanting to check on Chu Li's condition. She had only just woken up a few days ago, so why was she running around everywhere again?
While she was still worried, Chu Li spoke up without any hesitation: "Master, my injuries have almost healed, and I feel it's time to start cultivating."
As soon as she finished speaking, she was caught off guard by a glare from the sect leader, whose worried gaze then fell on her forehead.
Chu Li was somewhat confused. She thought her master should like her to cultivate diligently, so why was his reaction this time different from what she expected?
She subconsciously touched her forehead with her fingertips. Her head had been hurting a bit lately, but the pain didn't actually affect her cultivation.
The sect leader looked at the woman before him, his lips moved a few times, but in the end he gave up on trying to dissuade her.
"Cultivation is important, but your own health is even more important. Don't forget to rest more."
Chu Li readily agreed: "Then, Master, may I begin using my own Domain Pavilion?"
The Domain Pavilion is where disciples build new domains. This is also because the sect is worried that some disciples might forcibly build domains, which could lead to a surge of spiritual energy or encounter danger.
The Domain Pavilion allows for the simulation of domain construction, minimizing all potential damage. Once disciples are proficient, they can then conduct real domain construction outside.
Each disciple of the Myriad Manifestations Sect possesses their own Domain Pavilion.
She remembered that after she was injured, her master immediately sealed off her domain.
She was injured... Ouch, her head started to hurt again, and she couldn't quite remember what had caused her injury.
But none of that mattered much. What mattered was that the sect leader nodded the next moment, allowing her to resume using the Domain Pavilion.
Chu Li was only focused on her joy, completely unaware of the sect leader's inner numbness—it had only been a few days! Her body hadn't even fully recovered! And she already had inspiration for a new field?!
No wonder her disciples ran away overnight when they heard that Chu Li was coming to be their senior sister. With a senior sister like that, the disciples below must be under a lot of pressure.
Once Chu Li got interested, he went straight into his own domain pavilion and stayed there for half a month, finally completing the domain he wanted to build.
She looked at the lines shimmering in her palm and nodded in satisfaction. The next step was to go outside and test them out to see how they worked.
But when she stepped out of the room, she immediately spotted the little fox basking in the sun on a rock.
The round, fiery red ball was curled up in a ball, and Chu Li, with her sharp eyes, could even see its smooth fur swaying in the breeze.
Her fingertips unconsciously rubbed against her palm...
It was at this moment that Chu Li came to her senses and realized that her dwelling was next to that of the little fox.
Back then...right, why did she choose such a remote place to live?
From the second to the seventh junior brother, the distance from their master's residence increased from the closest to the furthest. Yet, she was the first one to arrive, but was assigned to the last position.
Fragments of memory surfaced in her mind; it seemed she had only recently been brought to the Myriad Manifestations Sect by her master, which was why her residence was arranged here—
A faint stinging pain came from her. She rubbed her forehead. This injury had damaged her memory. She couldn't remember many things, and the few she could remember were very blurry.
However, the doctor said that this is only a temporary situation and her memory will gradually recover.
No wonder, since her eighth junior brother's residence was conveniently located right next to hers.
"Junior brother!" Chu Li waved to the opposite side and whistled. Soon, a black dot flew over from afar.
As the black dot drew closer, it became clear that it was a crane that had acquired a small amount of magical power after spending a long time in the sect.
There are several cranes in the sect. If the disciples are willing to give them some reward, they can be used as their mode of transportation.
Upon hearing the shouts from the other side, Nan Yi actually turned over, facing away from Chu Li.
Chu Li patted the crane's head, took out a few Qingxin Pills, and fed them to the crane.
The crane nodded happily, knowing that this was the most generous one, unlike the other stingy disciples who only fed it grass.
It was worth it for snatching this order from all the cranes.
It carried Chu Li up and down rapidly, and finally gave her a reluctant look as it left.
"Eighth Junior Brother, it's already noon, why are you here?"
According to Chu Li's understanding, Master should have already started teaching Eighth Junior Brother. At this time of noon, he should still be studying.
With the person already in front of him asking the question, Nan Yi naturally couldn't not answer. His eyes darted around for a moment before he slowly and perfunctorily uttered a few words: "Master didn't look for me."
He didn't come to the Myriad Manifestations Sect to study at all, and the sect leader of the Myriad Manifestations Sect knew about this. Perhaps that's why the sect leader hasn't contacted him at all in the past two weeks.
He just wants the person in front of him to leave quickly and not disturb his sunbathing.
It seems that ever since his cultivation stagnated, he has had nothing else to do.
They can only be like wild foxes that haven't yet developed intelligence, spending their days either basking in the sun or the moonlight—
Ah, no, even wild foxes need to sleep. Unlike him, he can't sleep at all and can only bask in the moonlight outside.
But the next second he heard the person standing in front of him say, "Why isn't your master taking care of you? I'll go find her right now."
The fox raised its shimmering eyes in bewilderment, only to find that the person before it had already vanished.
He doesn't need any master's guidance!
His main task now is to find the Grandmaster of the Myriad Manifestations Sect. If anyone can cure his stagnant cultivation, it's probably only her.
However, he thought again that the other party might just be putting on an act. How could a disciple possibly command his master?
And since the sect leader knew his situation, he certainly wouldn't make things too difficult for him.
But just a quarter of an hour later, he realized he was wrong.
Chu Li found her master without much effort, and she inquired about her eighth junior brother's current situation in a somewhat tactful manner.
The sect leader then thought of the message the fox clan had sent her a few days ago, and couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.
The fox clan sent Nan Yi here to find their Wanxiang Sect's ancestor, who was also her master.
To prevent the sect leader from refusing to accept Nan Yi, they acted first and informed the sect leader later, only revealing their true purpose after everything had settled down.
The old acquaintance felt quite guilty and didn't demand that the sect leader handle the matter properly; he simply hoped to give Nan Yi a chance.
If that person happens to run into Nan Yi and is willing to treat him—
They knew the chances were slim, but it was at least an opportunity. They had visited almost every famous doctor before, but none of them could cure Nan Yi's strange injury.
In the past, the sect leader wouldn't have minded asking her master if she was difficult to get along with; these were just stereotypes from outsiders. In fact, her master was very easy to talk to.
Sometimes, however, my passion for cultivation leads me to neglect other trivial matters.
Indeed, anything unrelated to cultivation is trivial, and only the sect she founded herself occasionally earns her some attention.
But right now, Master is in such a... stage, and the Sect Master simply cannot bother her with this matter.
Moreover, this matter involves her, who has retained her complete memories, so it's not advisable to tell her directly, lest it trigger her memories.
So the sect leader considered it for a moment before saying, "I've been quite busy lately, and as you know, your junior brothers and sisters have all gone out, so I haven't been able to take care of him for a while."
"Then why don't I take him?"
Upon hearing this, the sect leader, who was about to drink tea, slipped and nearly dropped the teacup.
"What?" The sect leader stood up subconsciously. Compared to usual, she was clearly out of control, but she couldn't care less about that now.
Chu Li patiently repeated, "I happen to be free of other things lately, so how about I take care of him?"
The sect leader's thoughts raced wildly in his mind, but he couldn't come up with a single excuse to refuse.
Yes, if the master can't take care of them, then the senior brothers and sisters can. But the others aren't in the sect, only the eldest senior sister is, so it's normal for her to take care of the junior brothers...
That's a load of rubbish!
Chu Li is not the senior sister at all!
Perhaps her thoughts were too chaotic, or perhaps she couldn't come up with any excuse to refuse, but the sect leader finally nodded somewhat absentmindedly.
Now I just hope that nothing goes wrong when the two of them are together.
When Nan Yi heard the news, his first reaction was that it was absolutely impossible, and the fox practically jumped up from the rock.
When she realized she was in her original form, she still needed to look up at Chu Li, and then she transformed back into human form in a flash.
This time, he looked from top to bottom.
