Stop pretending, the seemingly useless junior sister is the real boss.

Li Qingshan was in a terrible predicament. He could only pray that Shen Ji would appear soon while trying to stall for time with a forced smile.

"It is an honor for all of you to grace our Qingxiao Sect with your presence at this sect competition. I wonder if you are satisfied with the accommodations we have arranged? If there are any complaints, please feel free to voice them, and I, the sect master, will immediately..."

Before Li Qingshan could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Hua Buyu, who looked displeased.

"I'm not satisfied, old man Li. You know I've taken a liking to Shen Ji, so you should arrange for me to live on Xiaoyao Peak. Your Lingxiao Peak doesn't have any handsome men like Shen Ji to see, so what's so great about living there?"

"And there's a dog here that just barks incoherently. Please make him get out of here; he's not welcome."

Upon hearing what Hua Buyu said, Li Qingshan felt a chill run down his spine.

Both Liuyue Sect and Qingxiao Sect are mid-level sects in Tianyan Continent. They have been invited to participate in the sect competition. How can we possibly kick them out?

Neither the Liuyue Sect nor the Hehuan Sect can be offended.

Caught in the middle and in a dilemma, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and continue to maneuver.

"Please calm down, both of you. Let's try to maintain harmony. The disciples below are watching."

"As for what Sect Leader Hua just said, you know that Junior Brother Shen has never liked crowds. Apart from a few disciples, there are no outsiders on Xiaoyao Peak, so Sect Leader Hua should just stay on Lingxiao Peak."

Just as Li Qingshan finished speaking, a commotion broke out in the room.

"They're here, they're here! The people from Xiaoyao Peak are here!"

Seeing Shen Ji and his disciples flying towards them on swords from afar, Li Qingshan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Wow, no wonder everyone wants to go to Xiaoyao Peak, the people there are indeed good-looking."

"Ling Tian, ​​it's Ling Tian! He's so handsome! I love Ling Tian! Why doesn't our Flower Valley have a disciple as handsome as Ling Tian?"

"Is that Peak Master Shen in white? I was lucky enough to catch a glimpse of him from afar a hundred years ago, and I never imagined he would still be so handsome. Waaah, I want to be a disciple of Xiaoyao Peak too."

"Qin Yuan is not bad either. He's dashing and debonair, just my type."

"Junior Sister Fengling is even more beautiful now, so dashing and heroic, not inferior to Ling Tian and Qin Yuan at all. If our Sword Sect had a female disciple like her, I would definitely not slack off in my cultivation."

"I heard that Junior Sister Mu Wan has broken through again. Don't let her baby face fool you; she supposedly beat Lin Yao, who is at the Great Perfection of the Golden Core stage, half to death. That bastard Lin Yao, relying on his higher cultivation, tried to lay hands on the female disciples of our Thousand Talisman Peak. He deserved to be beaten."

"Junior Brother Yuanbao has matured a lot compared to before. I like Junior Brother Yuanbao."

"Hey, who's that little sword-wielding child? They're so cute!"

"But when did a little baby appear on Xiaoyao Peak?"

"..."

Having received the attention of thousands from Xiaoyao Peak, the group arrived at the Yuling Peak's training ground just before the sect's minor competition was about to begin.

After two days of getting to know each other, Bai Xiaobai and Changling's teamwork became much smoother.

Today marked her first time flying on a sword. Seeing the vast crowds at the martial arts arena, she felt as if countless spirit stones were flying towards her.

In his eyes, the sea of ​​people in the martial arts arena were not his opponents, but potential clients who could help him become the richest woman in the cultivation world.

Therefore, Bai Xiaobai had no fear of competitors, only a desire for spirit stones.

She waved her little hands excitedly, her chubby face beaming with smiles.

She kept waving her little hands and greeting everyone in her sweet, childish voice.

"Hello, everyone, good morning! Welcome to the Azure Sky Sect."

Upon hearing that soft, adorable little voice, the disciples below waved their arms in greeting.

Good morning.

"So cute! Who's this little one? When did a little dumpling appear on Xiaoyao Peak?"

"I heard that the Spirit Realm Princess has become a disciple of Shen Ji of the Xiaoyao Peak of the Qingxiao Sect, but that Spirit Realm Princess has not yet taken human form, so it shouldn't be this little guy, right?"

"To be able to fly on a sword at such a young age, the Qingxiao Sect truly lives up to its reputation."

"This little one can fly on a sword all by herself, so she shouldn't be that useless princess who hasn't taken human form for a hundred years."

"Then who is she?"

"..."

While the disciples of other sects were still speculating about who the little guy flying alone on his sword was, someone was so smug that Changling couldn't stand it anymore.

As the Long Spirit Sword trembled, Bai Xiaobai, who was excitedly waving to her potential clients, was unsurprisingly shaken off.

Feeling the whistling wind in her ears, she finally snapped out of her excitement.

"Master, save me! Broken Sword, you just wait!"

Shen Ji condensed spiritual energy at his fingertips and pulled Bai Xiaobai back from falling.

Nestled in her master's arms, Bai Xiaobai clutched her chest in lingering fear, glaring at the red-clad sword spirit floating on the sword.

If she hadn't known that Changling's identity couldn't be exposed, she would have at least given the sword that had knocked her down a good talking-to.

What a qualified sword should do.

Upon hearing the small figure above identify herself as a princess, the outer sect disciples below reacted with shock.

"So the spirit princess has taken human form?"

"Is that little baby Bai Xiaobai, the little princess of the spirit world?"

"Didn't they say she couldn't cultivate? How can she fly on a sword?"

"Isn't it said that demons in the spirit realm can only take human form after reaching the Foundation Establishment stage? Could it be that Bai Xiaobai has already reached Foundation Establishment?"

"Didn't everyone say that the Spirit Realm Princess was a good-for-nothing, unable to transform into human form even after a hundred years of cultivation? How come she transformed into human form in just half a year after arriving at Xiaoyao Peak?"

"Her master is Shen Ji, a powerful cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage before the age of a thousand. It wouldn't be a bad thing if he personally taught her."

"..."

Seeing Shen Ji and the others finally appear, Li Qingshan, who was caught in the middle, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

When Hua Buyu saw the handsome man she had been longing for appear, a captivating smile appeared on her charming face.

She gave Zhou Li, whose face was ashen, a cool glare, and then swayed her hips toward Shen Ji.

Fengling and the others went to the martial arts arena. Only Ling Tian, ​​Shen Ji, and Bai Xiaobai nestled in Shen Ji's arms were on the stands.

Ling Tian kept his mission firmly in mind, so he stood in front of his master before Hua Buyu arrived.

His tone remained as cold and aloof as ever.

"Sect Leader Hua, the sect competition is about to begin. Please return to your seat."

If Ling Tian hadn't stopped her, Hua Buyu, who was already in a bad mood, would have turned cold.

"Get out of the way!"

Ling Tian remained unmoved and continued to reach out to block Hua Buyu.

"Excuse me, Sect Leader Hua, the sect competition is about to begin. Please return to your seat."

At this moment, Hua Buyu finally took a proper look at Ling Tian, ​​who was blocking her way.
