"Yes, in the end, it's still Sister Nuwa who treats me the best."

Tianci glanced smugly at his cheap master, Tongtian Jiaozhu, and his two cheap senior uncles, Taiqing Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun. His little boastful thoughts were already clearly on display.

The Master of Heaven: "..."

Is this guy even considered his personal disciple?

Taiqing Laozi: "..."

The Primordial Celestial Venerable: "..."

Does this kid still acknowledge his two senior uncles?

This guy clearly forgets his master (or senior brother) the moment he sees a beautiful woman!

Is there anything more chilling and heartbreaking in the world than this?

If they didn't know they were no match for this kid, they would have loved to grab Tianci and give him a good "lesson" to vent their anger.

But things didn't go as planned; his own disciple's cultivation level was far superior to his master's.

This is an inexplicable flaw.

"Hmm, little brother Tianci, you weren't hurt when you were fighting for the spiritual treasure, were you?"

Nuwa's clear, beautiful eyes were fixed on Tianci, her pearly teeth slightly parted, her voice gentle.

The beautiful faces of Houtu and the other female immortals were also filled with unconcealed worry and concern.

"Hehe! Sister Nuwa, Sister Houtu... I'm perfectly fine! You've all forgotten that my true form is the Enlightenment Tree!"

Tianci blinked his big, round eyes and said in a clear, crisp voice.

"That's good! As long as you're safe and sound!"

A little while later.

"Come, Sister Nuwa, Sister Yaochi, Sister Changxi, these gourds were specially prepared for you."

With a gentle flip of her tiny hand, Tianci produced three gourds shimmering with spiritual light, which instantly appeared before Nuwa and the others.

The gourd's surface was enveloped in layers of primordial divine light, with its precious energy flowing endlessly.

"Oh, my little brother, Tianci..."

"You little rascal..."

"Was this gourd a gift for us?"

Changxi's beautiful eyes widened slightly as she stared intently at the three radiant, innate gourds.

Nuwa and the others from Yaochi, who were standing nearby, had the exact same reaction.

"Yes, of course they're for all the older sisters."

Tianci nodded his little head seriously.

I watched this scene unfold before my eyes.

The Master of Heaven "..."

Taiqing Laozi "..."

The Primordial Celestial Venerable "..."

The faces of the three Qing were filled with unconcealable bitterness and helplessness.

My heart is bleeding!

In the end, they still couldn't stop Tianci, their disciple (or nephew), and could only watch helplessly as he gave away the remaining few innate gourds.

"Well... little brother Tianci, I won't stand on ceremony with you then."

Nuwa was the first to extend her fair, jade-like hand and put away the golden gourd that shimmered with golden light.

Immediately afterwards, Yaochi and Changxi each accepted their own gourds.

"By the way, Sister Nuwa, I'll also give you this section of the innate gourd vine, as well as the Nine Heavens Breath Soil underneath. You'll definitely find it very useful in the future."

After Nuwa and the others had put away the gourd, Tianci took out the remaining vines from the innate gourd vine, along with the Nine Heavens Breath Soil that supported the vine roots, and handed them to Nuwa.

Ultimately, these things were essential for Nuwa to create humans and become a saint in the future.

You absolutely cannot do without any of them.

"Little brother Tianci...why do you treat your sister so well?"

Upon hearing Tianci's words, Nuwa was deeply moved and her heart was filled with warmth.

Houtu and the others' beautiful eyes were filled with unconcealed envy.

"whee!"

Tianci simply smiled with his eyes narrowed, without saying another word.

What a waste of money!

They're such spendthrifts!

Standing to the side, watching all of this unfold, the three—Tongtian Jiaozhu, Taiqing Laozi, and the others—were so angry they were about to go crazy on the spot.

All eyes were fixed on Tianci, this disciple (or nephew), as if they wanted to poke holes in him.

You could say you gave away a few gourds, but you even casually gave away a supreme treasure like the Nine Heavens Breath Soil.

How extravagant must one be to do something so outrageous!

That's the Heavenly Soil!

Even those few potential saints haven't been able to possess it yet, and they're incredibly envious.

But now things are really messed up...

They could only watch helplessly as this priceless treasure slipped away right under their noses.

This piercing heartache is something that only they themselves can truly understand.

Someone like Tianci, a spendthrift who squanders money like water, can never understand this feeling.

"Brother, let's go. I'm afraid if I keep watching, I'll be driven crazy by this brat sooner or later."

The Tongtian Sect Leader, his face contorted in bitterness, gritted his teeth and transmitted his voice to the Taiqing Laozi's primordial spirit.

"Hey, third brother, let's wait a little longer!"

Ultimately, Laozi, the Supreme Lord, also longed to turn around and leave as soon as possible.

If it weren't for bringing his junior apprentice Tianci back to Kunlun Mountain to cultivate and attain enlightenment, he would have left long ago.

If he stayed any longer, he would really be driven mad by this kid.

"Alright!"

A little while later.

Yuan Ming reached out and gently pinched Tianci's tender little face, speaking in a gentle tone.

"Yes, Sister Yuanming, I will definitely come to Undying Mountain to visit you when I have time in the future."

Tianci looked up and replied.

"Okay, I'll be waiting for you at Undying Mountain!"

"Fellow Daoists, we shall meet again!"

Yuan Ming's gaze slowly swept over Nuwa and the others, and he spoke in a calm tone.

Until we meet again!

After saying this, Yuan Ming turned and left.

He led his Phoenix Clan members straight away from Buzhou Mountain.

"My dear disciple, it's time for us to set off and return to Kunlun Mountain."

Fearing that his spendthrift disciple Tianci might casually give away some more treasures, the Tongtian Sect Leader quickly spoke up first.

"Yes, Junior Nephew Tianci, there's nothing much to do here now, let's go back to Kunlun Mountain together."

Seeing this, the Primordial Celestial Venerable also quickly chimed in to echo his sentiments.

"Hmm... okay then!"

"but……"

"But what's wrong?"

Upon hearing that there was a twist in Tianci's words, the three members of the Sanqing Sect immediately became anxious, their faces filled with tension.

They were afraid that Tianci would suddenly change his mind and refuse to go back to Kunlun Mountain with them.

"But I can only leave after I have completely dug out this innate gourd vine."

Tianci strode to the Innate Gourd Vine, flipped his palm, and the Primordial Measuring Ruler appeared in his hand.

Then he smashed it down hard on the base of the gourd vine.

I don't know how much time has passed.

The entire innate gourd vine was finally dug out completely by Tianci.

"Alright, Master, my two senior uncles, we can head back now."

"Sister Nuwa, Sister Houtu, Sister Xihe, Sister Changxi, I'll be going now. I'll miss you all."

After carefully putting away the innate gourd vine, Tianci waved his little hand at Nuwa and the others.

"Yes, a gifted little brother!"

"Your sister will always be thinking of you."

The beautiful eyes of Nuwa and the others were filled with deep reluctance to part.

"Fellow Daoist Nuwa, Fellow Daoist Fuxi...then we shall meet again at Zixiao Palace."

The Tongtian Sect Leader, along with Taiqing Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun, bowed to Nuwa and the others.

"Yes, Fellow Daoist Tongtian, we'll meet again at Zixiao Palace."

Time flies like water, and thousands of years have passed in the blink of an eye.

High above the Kunlun Mountains, in the western Kunlun Mountains.

"Alright, little fellow, Fellow Daoist Tongtian, Fellow Daoist Taiqing, Fellow Daoist Yuanshi, what lies below is my Daoist abode, Yaochi Wonderland."

"Let's part ways here!"

Yaochi looked at Tianci and the three Qing in front of her with her clear and beautiful eyes, and spoke softly with her pearly teeth slightly parted.

"good!"

"good!"

The Tongtian Sect Leader and Taiqing Laozi both nodded.

"Goodbye, Sister Yaochi!"

Tianci waved his little hand and said in a clear, crisp voice.

And so, after watching Yaochi turn and leave, the Three Pure Ones took Tianci and went straight back to their Daoist temple in Dongkunlun.

Inside a magnificent hall in Dongkunlun.

Tianci was once again surrounded by the three: Tongtian Jiaozhu, Taiqing Laozi, and Yuanshi Tianzun.

"Master, my two senior uncles... why are you staring at me like that?"

Feeling uneasy under the intense gazes of the three people, Tianci couldn't help but shrink his neck.

"Hmph, don't you know that yourself?"

"Master, what are you saying? I can't understand a word you're saying!"

Tianci knew perfectly well that this was all about the previous innate gourds and the Nine Heavens Breath Soil, but he pretended to be confused and acted as if he were completely clueless.

"Junior brother Tianci, stop pretending to be stupid. Your master and us two senior uncles are not so easy to fool."

"Uncle-Master, you don't believe you can't understand what we're saying!"

Taiqing Laozi spoke slowly with a stern face.

"Exactly! Hurry up and confess honestly!"

The Primordial Celestial Venerable immediately echoed this sentiment, his tone somewhat serious.

"My good disciple, just tell us the truth. If you can't give us a satisfactory explanation today, this matter won't be over so easily."

The Tongtian Sect Leader also spoke up, his tone tinged with resentment.

"But Master, my two senior uncles, I really don't understand what you're talking about! What exactly do you want me to say?"

Tianci still kept his innocent big eyes open, continuing to play dumb.

"Third brother, you go and talk to him and make things clear."

Seeing that Tianci was still pretending to be ignorant, Taiqing Laozi was furious and glared at him fiercely.

"Yes, elder brother."

The Master of the Heavens nodded, then looked at Tianci and said, "Alright, my good disciple, since you say you don't understand, then your master will make it clear to you!"

"Tell me then, why did you insist on giving the Nine Heavens Breath Soil to Nuwa back at Buzhou Mountain? Do you even know how precious the Nine Heavens Breath Soil is? Even your master and your two senior uncles didn't possess it. How could you just give it away so casually?"

As the Tongtian Sect Leader spoke, his face was filled with grievance and resentment.

He felt utterly disheartened that his own disciple, whom he had personally taken in, was now possessing a priceless treasure, yet the disciple didn't think of him first.

"Hehe! Master, my two senior uncles, are you two jealous?"

Jealous?

Pooh!

We're not jealous at all!

We just can't stand your wasteful spending.

"Hurry up and confess honestly, stop grinning like that!"

Taiqing Laozi put on a stern face and reprimanded him in a pretentious manner.

"Alright, alright, Master, my two senior uncles, please stop being jealous of Sister Nuwa. Here, let me pat your head so you won't be angry anymore."

"I have my own reasons and justifications for doing this!"

Tianci reached out and tugged at the sleeve of his cheap master, Tongtian Jiaozhu, tilting his little face up with a sly smile.

"Um?"

"reason?"

"What's the reason?"

The three Qings asked in unison.

"Hehe! Master, my two senior uncles, I can't tell you yet, but you'll understand in the future."

After all, it concerns the great secret of Nuwa's future creation of humans and sainthood, so he naturally cannot reveal a single thing to Tongtian Jiaozhu, his nominal master, and his two senior uncles.

None of the three spoke upon hearing this.

He stared intently at Tianci, his eyes full of inquiry.

It was as if they were carefully considering how much of what Tianci, their disciple (or nephew), said was true and how much was false.

Master, my two senior uncles, please stop staring at me like that!

You guys are scaring me...

Being stared at so intently by the Tongtian Sect Leader, Taiqing Laozi, and the other two made Tianci feel completely exposed and uncomfortable.

"Second brother, third brother, what do you think of what this little fellow said?"

Taiqing Laozi secretly transmitted a primordial spirit message to Tongtian Jiaozhu and Yuanshi Tianzun.

"Brother, based on my understanding of this lad, I don't think he's lying."

"That's right, brother. Although this little guy is a bit mischievous, he shouldn't lie to us."

The Tongtian Sect Leader and the Primordial Celestial Venerable responded one after the other using their primordial spirits to transmit their voices.

"Yes, that's what I think too."

"In that case, let's leave the matter of the Nine Heavens Breath Soil here for now."

Taiqing Laozi nodded to himself, setting the tone.

"good!"

"good!"

Neither the Tongtian Sect Leader nor the Yuanshi Tianzun had any objections.

"However, we still need to teach this little guy a lesson so he can never be so wasteful again."

"Just thinking about those three top-grade innate gourds and the Nine Heavens Breath Soil makes my heart ache!"

Taiqing Laozi looked pained and secretly transmitted his thoughts.

"Yes, you're right, elder brother. We absolutely cannot let this little guy continue to squander money like this."

The Primordial Celestial Venerable deeply agreed with this and immediately echoed it.

The Tongtian Sect Leader, standing to the side, also wore an expression of complete agreement.

Those are three genuine top-grade innate spiritual treasures, and the invaluable Nine Heavens Breath Soil!

To say I'm not hurting would be a complete lie.
