It's been almost three months since I left the sect. The biggest divine descent incident in the capital has been resolved, and there shouldn't be any major incidents during the upcoming period of martial law in the capital.

In fact, after Ji Tian broke the spatial restriction of the capital two months ago, he could teleport anywhere in the human kingdom at will. However, he was focused on achieving the full collection of the "Seven Pages Book" and did not leave the capital for too long.

It's time to return to the sect and check on the disciples' cultivation progress.

As morning light filtered through the curtains, Ji Tian had already finished getting ready. He asked again:

"It's a day off today, aren't you really not coming with me to the sect?"

Elena looked up, a hint of a smile in her grey-blue eyes, and said seriously, "It's not the right time yet."

Why?

Elena smiled without saying a word.

"Then I'll escort you back to the Viscount's mansion."

"it is good."

Ji Tian teleported with Elena to the outside of the Viscount's mansion. The guards at the gate saw the two of them and quickly opened the gate to go in and report.

As soon as the two entered, the Viscountess personally came out to greet them, her gaze sweeping back and forth between her daughter and Ji Tian.

She smiled and took Elena's hand. "You're back? Perfect timing, the kitchen made your favorite pancakes."

Then she looked at Ji Tian and said in a gentle tone, "Ji Tian, ​​would you like to eat something together?"

Ji Tian bowed slightly. "No, Auntie, I have other things to attend to. I'll leave Elena to you."

The Viscountess smiled and nodded. "Go ahead, be careful on the road."

"Okay, Auntie."

Elena knew that with Ji Tian's current abilities, he could return anytime, anywhere as long as he was within the human kingdom, so she simply smiled and waved her hand.

Ji Tian turned around and walked back along the path he had come from. The morning light stretched his shadow long, and his white clothes fluttered gently in the wind.

Elena stood at the doorway, watching his figure disappear at the end of the street before turning her gaze away.

The Viscountess gently patted her daughter's hand, a hint of teasing in her voice, "Everyone's gone, why are you still looking?"

Elena's ears turned slightly red as she took her mother's arm and walked inside, calling out, "Mommy~"

……

Eastern Territory, Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect.

When Ji Tian appeared on the bluestone square, Honglong was dozing under the ancient pine tree.

As a red dragon that is obligated to serve others, it perfectly fulfilled its duties as a guest retainer:

I sleep near the square during the day and go back to my little nest at night to sleep, while also enjoying the premium magic crystals that Ji Tian gave me. Life is so carefree.

Sensing the spatial fluctuations, it opened its vertical pupils, glanced at the newcomer, then closed them again, muttering, "Oh, a rare guest."

Ji Tian looked up at it. "Hmm, how's the sect doing these days?"

"Not bad, it didn't collapse." The red dragon put its head back on its front paws, and swept the ground with the tip of its tail. "Your disciples are all quite troublesome. The day before yesterday, that silver-haired girl was meditating outside the Spirit Spring Cave. She fell asleep while sitting and plunged headfirst into the stream next to her. When she got up, she said she was 'practicing underwater breathing.'"

"...Lilith?"

Honglong snorted, "Who else could it be but her? There's also that girl with fiery red hair, who's always researching new dishes in the dining hall. A few days ago, she made a 'Flaming Steak,' which almost blew the roof off the dining hall. Your third apprentice joined in the commotion, saying that she 'didn't control the heat perfectly,' and then he tried to cook it himself, burning the pan through."

"Sigh... It's good that everyone's alright."

Ji Tian silently spread his divine sense, covering the entire sect.

The locations of his disciples gradually appeared in his perception:

Shirley was in the training field, instructing her two bears on backflips; Jenny was in the herb garden, squatting in front of the herb patch, carefully pulling weeds; Ophelia was in the main hall, flipping through something, while Alice, tied to her side, was being punished by copying scriptures with a look of utter despair.

From the direction of the back mountain, two auras were moving rapidly. Alex's sword intent was sharp and clear, while Mason's fire magic was intense and stable.

Looking at the still vibrant and flourishing realm of the sect, Ji Tian's lips curled up, and he instantly teleported to Lilith's cultivation place outside the Spirit Spring Cave.

Lilith was sitting cross-legged on a futon outside the Spirit Spring Cave.

The morning mist had not yet dissipated, leaving her long, silvery-white hair damp with moisture. She closed her eyes, her breathing deep and even, her posture upright.

Ji Tian stopped in front of her and looked down at her for a moment.

The thin needle, formed from spiritual energy and suspended three inches above her head, had already dissipated into spiritual energy on the fiftieth day when she had achieved minor success in her magic.

Lilith wasn't asleep!

Sensing the familiar scent, she sniffed with her delicate nose, her eyelashes trembling slightly, before suddenly opening her eyes.

Her amethyst-like eyes lit up the moment she saw who it was, and she sprang up from the futon and pounced on him.

"Master! You're finally back—!"

Ji Tian reached out and caught the other person.

Lilith clung to him like a koala, her long, silvery-white hair brushing against his neck, and she kept saying:

"Master, do you know how long you've been gone? Almost three months! I've missed you so much! Have you missed me? Of course you have! Was I the first disciple you saw?"

"Oh? How did you know?"

Lilith laughed upon hearing this, "Hehehehe...he has feelings for me."

Ji Tian pulled her off his body and placed her on the prayer mat.

"Let me see what you've accomplished in these three months."

Lilith immediately straightened her back, placed her hands on her knees, closed her eyes, and took a deep breath.

Her divine sense slowly spread from between her eyebrows. Although weak, it was clear and stable, like a thin mist that tinted the surrounding air with a faint silvery-white hue.

Illusion.

Ji Tian probed into it with his divine sense and saw a hillside covered with wildflowers, warm sunshine, fluttering butterflies, and a babbling brook in the distance.

The details are quite rich, although some parts are blurry, but for someone who has only been practicing for less than three months, it is already quite remarkable.

He withdrew his divine sense and nodded. "Not bad."

Lilith opened her eyes, her lips curling up to her ears, but she still coughed with feigned modesty. "Actually, I think it could be even better, but you weren't here these past few days, and without anyone to guide me, I didn't dare to practice any further. I was afraid of going astray."

"That's good, you have a good understanding of your own limitations."

Lilith selectively ignored the second half of the sentence, shook her head smugly, and then pulled out a crumpled piece of paper from her sleeve, unfolded it, and had a few words written on it in crooked handwriting.

"Master, look! I've learned to write Chinese characters!"

She pointed to the first character, "This is pronounced 'xiong,' the fierce kind of fierce! I practiced it myself!"

Ji Tian looked down.

fierce.

The strokes are correct, but the "乂" inside "凵" looks like two fighting tree branches.

"Um."

"And this one, '区'! '区' for 'region'!" She pointed to the second character, then the third, "This is '冈', the '冈' for 'hill'! This is '丒', I had to write it so many times to remember it!"
