Chapter 1350
May your master be blessed with good fortune and peace!
"Our ancestor is getting more and more beautiful!"
“Master, Ancestor, these are all species that my Beiming Peak lineage has obtained in recent years through the exchange of spiritual grains and herbs with the spirit beasts and servants of other major immortal mountains in the sect.”
Five men and women, still bearing distinct features of the Five Immortals, faced their master Chen Xuan and ancestor Bai Li with utmost respect and flattery, presenting them with a variety of rare and exotic fruits and treasures carried up by their descendants.
As Chen Xuan ate the spiritual fruits grown in his own spiritual field and looked at the spiritual tea leaves that had already been roasted, he rarely showed a smile.
"Not bad." Chen Xuan's state of mind was no longer what it was three years ago, and his vision had also broadened considerably.
This sentence is, of course, an affirmation of the five immortals' hard work.
"You little ones, well done! You haven't disgraced your ancestor!" Bai Li, in the form of a white-clad girl, smiled with satisfaction upon seeing her descendants so capable.
Although her avatar was not tall, she looked old-fashioned and smiled at the group of descendants below, "The master is very tired after returning this time. You may all step down for now."
"Yes, Master!"
"We take our leave!"
The group of hundreds of little creatures came and went quickly, and soon the small courtyard on the summit returned to tranquility.
Chen Xuan sat on the stone bench, looking at the table full of all sorts of things, quietly tasting them, but his eyes kept flickering as if he was preoccupied.
Bai Li was Chen Xuan's personal spirit beast. During this trip to the secret realm, his master not only learned the whereabouts of a branch of the Longxia clan, but also learned that his disciple was actually suffering a calamity. No wonder he was in a good mood.
Bai Li walked behind Chen Xuan and massaged his shoulders with her small hands, remaining quiet and silent.
A full cup of tea's time passed before Chen Xuan came to his senses and patted Bai Li's hand to reassure her.
“Master, the three prodigies of the Nalan clan have been suppressed by us, and their fates are unknown. They will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly during this period of time. Perhaps…” Bai Li looked at Chen Xuan and stammered, “How about we stay in the sect for a while and lay low before taking any further action?”
Chen Xuan nodded and smiled, saying, "You think too much of the Nalan clan, and you think too little of the three thousand princes of the Xuanxiao World."
Bai Li blinked, clearly unaware of the implications.
“My sect, and even the God-Slaying Guard, have similar rare items like Life Slips and Soul Lamps. How could the Nalan Clan not have them?” Chen Xuan shook his head and continued, “This matter will surely come to an end once the news reaches the Nalan Clan.”
"Master, are you saying?" Bai Li asked thoughtfully, "that the Nalan clan will use the Soul Lamp and the Life Slip to prove that the three of them are not dead, but trapped somewhere? So, we cultivators who came out together won't be targeted too much?"
Chen Xuan nodded and said, "Not only that, the cultivators participating in the Immortal Realm Ancient Road are not only from my Xuanxiao World, but also from many other major sects in other star regions whose power is no less than that of the Nalan Clan. Moreover, there are not many cultivators who are qualified to know what happened in front of the Enlightenment Tree, only a few dozen people."
“Bound by the oath of Heaven, even if the Nalan clan’s scattered immortals and earth immortals forcibly search souls, they will not be able to obtain that information.” Chen Xuan continued to analyze with a profound gaze. “In this case, if we dare not show our faces from now on, it would be a bit like trying to hide something obvious.”
"I see." Bai Li seemed to understand and nodded. "In this way, even if they have suspicions, they won't be able to be sure that we are the murderers."
Chen Xuan nodded, then thought for a moment and handed a rubbing of a classic text to Bai Li, saying, "Many of the descendants of the Five Immortals of Baili Spirit Field are about to open their Purple Mansions. This Heaven-Rank Qi Refining Method was given to the tribe by Xiao Lou."
Bai Li was startled when she saw the book her master handed her and immediately shook her head in refusal.
Before Bai Li could say anything, Chen Xuan handed her the book and said, "Although the descendants of the Five Immortals are only responsible for cultivating the spiritual fields, they are also qualified to lay the foundation for becoming immortals. This Heavenly Rank Qi Refining Method is just right."
