Grandpa, times have changed.

emm...

Chi Jiuyu remained calm and followed Bie Xuening to the edge of the fishpond.

She took out a handful of fish food and sprinkled it into the pond, which attracted nine spirit fish to fight over it, splashing water everywhere.

Master hasn't fed the fish in a long time.

It's better to eat them yourself sooner, so they can be freed sooner.

Chi Jiuyu couldn't help but grumble inwardly.

But soon, as she watched the spirit fish leaping up and down in the pond, her eyes narrowed.

hiss~
The scales, the lines, these fish...

It seems like those were the ones Master gave me, but I ate them instead!
In other words, at this point in time, I have not yet become a disciple of a master.

But the time before my departure won't be too far off, after all, my master has already raised these nine spirit fish.

Considering what Master said before, that his uncle would soon emerge from seclusion, more than 1,900 years ago, now...

Following Bie Xuening, watching her feed the spirit fish and walk out of the bamboo forest, Chi Jiuyu had a vague guess in her heart.

Seeing that she did not return to the Sword Master's Hall but continued walking down the mountain, their guesses became even more certain.

really!

As far as she knew, during the two thousand years that her master had been in seclusion, her master had rarely left the Sword Sovereign Hall.

More than 1,900 years!
If nothing unexpected happens...

Chi Jiuyu followed closely behind Bie Xuening.

Before long, they followed her to a corner of the inner sect of the Sword Sect, deep in a quiet bamboo forest.

After walking along the cobblestone path, we arrived at an old courtyard.

The residence of Uncle Ji.

Ji Yue seemed surprised by Bie Xuening's arrival.

The two chatted for a while, but most of the time Ji Yue did the talking while Bie Xuening listened, only occasionally replying.

About ten minutes later, Bie Xuening got up and left.

Chi Jiuyu continued to follow.

And so, the two of them walked through the Sword Sect's inner sect, visiting the Sword Holding Hall, Pill Cauldron Pavilion, Law Enforcement Hall, and Dharma Transmission Tower, and even the Inheritance Hall and the Hall of Saints.

After the inner sect members of the Sword Sect had all been dazzled, Bie Xuening stood at the edge of the inner sect continent for a long time.

In the end, they went to the outer sect of the Sword Sect.

Similarly, after touring the outer sect of the Sword Sect, Bie Xuening finally arrived at a pond near the eastern gate of the Sword Sect.

I used to visit this pond often when I was a child, and I still make time to go there when I'm older.

The night sky was filled with twinkling stars, and a crescent moon hung high in the sky.

Bie Xuening, who was reminiscing about the past, paused, as if she had discovered something, and looked up at the night sky.

Chi Jiuyu paused, then followed Bie Xuening's gaze.

Soon, tiny ripples, like a gentle breeze across a lake, appeared.

Immediately, a streak of light appeared.

Shift symbol.

As a master of talismanic arts, Chi Jiuyu immediately saw through the nature of this stream of light.

The so-called teleportation talisman is a type of space-traveling talisman that can be used in the central continent. It was usually used by ancient cultivators to protect their lives.

However, due to the high production cost of such talismans and the fact that they are easily interrupted by anti-air formations and supernatural powers during the process of breaking through the void, they have been phased out.

The latest fourth-generation teleportation talisman is not only more stable in effect and can ignore most anti-air formations and supernatural powers, but its production cost is also less than one-fifth of this version of the teleportation talisman.

Information flashed through his mind, but then he saw the streak of light streak across the sky, heading towards the depths of the Sword Sect...

But at this critical moment, the Sword Sect's grand formation took effect.

The complex array patterns appeared, immediately causing the flowing light to dissipate and the objects within it to deviate from their original direction, falling towards the outside of the Sword Sect's mountain gate.

It was a baby, about four or five months old, still in swaddling clothes.

Without the protection of the teleportation talisman, falling from such a height would offer almost no chance of survival.

At that moment, Chi Jiuyu's heart was in her throat.

But the next second, without warning, the baby that was falling towards the gate of the Sword Sect vanished into thin air.

When it reappeared, it came to Bie Xuening's side and floated quietly in the air.

The baby, only four or five months old, didn't cry or fuss. Its bright eyes were fixed on Bie Xuening, and Bie Xuening quietly met its gaze.

Call ~
Chi Jiuyu breathed a sigh of relief.

She had actually unleashed a sword aura just now, trying to catch the baby, but she found that her sword aura couldn't make contact at all...

"So that's how they found me..." she muttered to herself.

High up, a dashing figure appeared where the baby had just disappeared, looking around blankly.

no……

What about people?

Was a baby that just fell from the sky?
How could it disappear in the blink of an eye?

Fortunately, it wasn't long before she spotted Bie Xuening by the pool and the baby floating in front of her.

"Master Uncle?"

This person was none other than Li Ke.

In a flash, he arrived at the edge of the pool.

"How did you end up here?"

"My junior brother is about to emerge from seclusion, so I came out for a stroll since I had nothing else to do."

Li Ke raised an eyebrow.

"Master is about to emerge from seclusion?!"

"Ah."

“Then this…” She looked at the baby again.

“An accident,” Bie Xuening said succinctly.

Upon hearing this, Li Ke stared at the baby for a while, then frowned.

"This kid... is he from the Righteous Alliance?"

She had just tried to deduce the baby's origin, but failed.

All I could sense was a complete mess.

chaos……

In the current chaotic state of the Tai Xuan Realm, the only force that could remain hidden from her, a Dongzhen, is the Righteous Path Alliance.

Since the disappearance of the Holy Emperor Abyss, the righteous alliance has been in chaos for quite some time.

"Ah."

Although the situation of the Righteous Alliance could be kept from Li Ke, it could not be kept from her, a True Immortal.

This little guy was randomly teleported to the Sword Sect by a teleportation talisman during the turmoil three hours ago.

As for what exactly happened...

She needed to calculate it carefully, since she wasn't very good at divination. "So what should we do now?" Li Ke asked.

We can't just leave it like this, can we?
"You keep an eye on it for now, and I'll make arrangements later."

"Oh." Li Ke nodded subconsciously.

wrong!

She quickly realized what was happening.

"I?!"

"if not."

"..."

Li Ke hesitated, feeling that this was somewhat inappropriate.

but……

"Your disciple obeys."

You're my senior, so you get to decide.

"Well, let's go."

After a few simple words, feeling somewhat uneasy, Li Ke picked up the baby and turned to leave.

Interestingly, even when Li Ke was holding the baby, the infant showed no signs of crying or fussing, and just stared wide-eyed at Bie Xuening.

"Why does he seem a little silly?" Li Ke muttered as she walked away.

You're the idiot!

Chi Jiuyu was furious.

No!

I'm still so small, you could at least hold me, what's the point of just carrying me like this?!

What if my 'supreme wisdom' is damaged!
After a while, until Li Ke's figure had completely disappeared from sight, Chi Jiuyu turned around to look at Bie Xuening.

But then she noticed that she was also staring in the direction Li Ke had left, a strange look flashing in her eyes.

This little guy actually showed up at the Sword Sect just when his junior brother was about to emerge from seclusion...

"Fate..."

Yes, yes!

We are so destined to meet, Master!

Chi Jiuyu nodded hurriedly.

What a pity. I originally thought the scene of my master finding me would be some earth-shattering event, but now it seems quite ordinary...

But this ordinary, unremarkable person managed to overpower a host of geniuses from various immortal sects, and even a fairy-like girl like Xiao Zhao was no match for him.

Chi Jiuyu was sighing.

The next second, she noticed that Bie Xuening beside her seemed to have discovered something and glanced in her direction.

Ok?
Chi Jiuyu was taken aback.

Is this a reflection of myself?
"Master?"

The tentative inquiry still went unanswered, but everything in front of me began to flow faster, as if an image had been fast-forwarded.

With the perspective shifted upwards, the entire panorama of the Sword Sect came into view.

Night quickly turned into day, and then back into darkness.

Light and shadow intertwine, day and night cycle endlessly.

Day after day passed.

She saw it!

She saw that her master had named her 'Chi Jiuyu'.

I also saw myself growing up day by day, revealing my unparalleled and unmatched talent.

In the end, even his master was moved by his unparalleled talent and decided to take him into the sect, making him the first disciple of the Sword Master lineage of the Sword Sect!

The legendary path of the greatest genius in all the heavens and myriad realms, the strongest god from ancient times to the present, begins here!

And so, the day came when she turned seven, the day she laid a solid foundation and officially began her spiritual journey.

As the rapidly flashing images stopped, her perspective returned to normal.

However, she was not in the pool, but in front of the Sword Master's Hall.

Bie Xuening was right beside her, watching Xiao Chi Jiuyu, who was guiding spiritual energy into the Dao in the outer sect cultivation room of the Sword Sect.

Master...

Actually, you still care about yourself quite a bit!
She thought to herself with delight.

How did you end up here?

Ok? !

Chi Jiuyu's expression froze. She looked around but found nothing.

Am I hallucinating?
"I'm asking you, Jiu Yu."

This time she heard it clearly; the person speaking was none other than Bie Xuening, who was standing right in front of her.

"Master?"

"Ah."

"Can you see me?"

“I can see it.” Bie Xuening turned to look at her. “If I’m not mistaken, you should come from an earlier point in time.”

Chi Jiuyu: "..."

Is this what a true immortal is like?

"Yes, Master, we are indeed from the future," she said honestly.

To be honest, she was a little surprised, but not much.

After all, her master's ascension to immortality had already influenced her.

Now that Master has discovered this, it doesn't seem so surprising anymore.

Bie Xuening looked her up and down for a while, a hint of satisfaction flashing in her eyes.

"good."

Throughout history, no one who has achieved the highest level of cultivation could compare to her.

No wonder he's the student I taught.

"Hehe, Master, you flatter me." Chi Jiuyu scratched his head.

My current master speaks much better.

My future master never praises me; he just calls me a rebellious disciple and hangs me up like a spinning top to whip me, even though most of the time it's because I brought it on myself...

"What will the future hold?"

Bie Xuening's tone carried a rare hint of hesitation.

The fact that Chi Jiuyu was able to come here from an even earlier point in time is enough to explain something.

But she still wanted to confirm it again. (End of Chapter)
