After the time travel, my cheat program disappeared.

"Alas." The little girl sobbed and turned around to hug Shi Yan.

She snuggled against Shi Yan.

Shi Yan's expression suddenly became somewhat strange. She pinched the short little horn on the girl's forehead and turned her away.

The little Pixiu thought it had done something wrong, and its body tensed up unconsciously.

Shi Yan held the girl's body in his arms and lifted her up a bit to make sure the little girl's little horn wouldn't poke any strange places anymore.

She swiped her right hand to open her attribute panel.

After a day of tenderness, his cultivation level had changed to [Second Stage of Purple Mansion Realm].

And...it's different from before.

Shi Yan noticed that a thin purple line seemed to have appeared on the left side of his realm column.

Because of the changes within his own Purple Mansion, Shi Yan is now very concerned about these strange and unusual places.

This morning... there shouldn't be this line yet.

I'll take a look next time I play with Xiaxia.

Come to think of it...did I really bully Xiaxia too much? Otherwise...when I go to Yinghua City to enjoy the flowers after returning to Nanjun City, I might as well be more careful.

Shi Yan picked up the little Pixiu's soft body.

She swiped the panel.

I am ultimately too weak.

Not strong enough, not strong enough.

There's no time like the present; let's seize this opportunity to surround and annihilate these evil spirits and monsters, ridding the people of this scourge. It's of utmost urgency.

By the way... it really was just by the way.

I can steal some kills and gain a few hundred million cultivation points.

Part 97 Guess! Guess boldly! You're almost right! [Second Update]

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh~~~"

In the night forest, the little girl's excited shouts broke the silence.

"Run! Run!"

"If I catch you... you'll be played with to death~~~"

On the other side of the forest, Shi Yan's face suddenly darkened upon hearing the little Pixiu's words.

This little fool...where did he learn these words?

Could it be that back when the poem "The fragrant mist is thin, permeating the nine provinces, a melancholy lingers in the immortal's pavilion" was being recited... this little fool was listening outside?

I'll see how I can properly reward her when I get back.

However... along with the little girl's shouts, the entire forest erupted into chaos.

As the uncrowned king of the "Sword Tomb," the Little Pixiu still commands a very high profile with its "Soul of Exorcism."

The entire forest seemed to tremble.

Master Yan could clearly see a large group of demons and evil spirits rushing toward his location.

Behind her stood a group of star officials from the Celestial Bureau.

A little further back, the barricades that formed the barrier were pulled open, creating a narrow gap that even girls like Xiaxia or Xixuezhiwu had to turn sideways to pass through.

For those demons and evil spirits that were being driven away, that crevice was practically their only 'lifeline'.

This is the plan devised by Xingcai.

The little Pixiu and Shi Jiuzhou drove away the evil spirits and monsters in the mountains and forests from two directions, and then wiped them all out in front of the barrier.

In this battle, the Starry Sky Division dispatched a small team of Crystallization Realm experts, along with a Golden Core Realm 'powerful' expert to oversee the operation.

The Golden Core Realm once seemed so unattainable to Shi Yan, while Sister Wenren could terrify the Fourth Elder with just a glance.

But now... Shi Yan looked at that Golden Core Realm 'powerful being' who was bowing and scraping to Xing Cai.

It seems like...

It's not that far away.

Although his own Purple Mansion Realm Level 2 was only roughly equivalent to the late Crystal Realm.

However... Shi Yan possessed the confidence and strength to challenge him without relying on the "Fierce God of the Year" or the power of the Immortal Sword.

even--

Shi Yan could also sense that there was another pair of eyes watching the battlefield from within the camp.

Nascent Soul Realm cultivator.

They must have come all the way from Jizhou, as guards protecting the satellite.

Sensing Shi Yan's gaze, that gaze shifted to Shi Yan.

Shi Yan was not afraid at all and gave a big smile in the direction of the camp.

What's there to be afraid of... The Xing clan won't eat me. Do you think they're afraid they'll tie my wrists and ankles together, pack me up, and take me back to Jizhou to get married?

After Shi Yan smiled, the gaze seemed to flee from him.

Xingcai looked at Shiyan with a hint of surprise in her eyes.

Clearly, she knew that someone from the Xing family was secretly protecting her.

Boom boom boom—

The earth suddenly began to tremble violently.

From afar, Shi Yan could already see the dust rising in the forest.

"Young Master?" Xingcai reminded Shiyan again, "Are you sure... you want to hold off those evil spirits and demons by yourself first?"

After finalizing tonight's plans with Xingcai.

Shi Yan made a 'small' request: she hoped that she could form the first line of defense by herself, blocking the evil spirits and monsters driven away by Shi Jiuzhou and the little Pixiu.

There is no other reason.

In Shi Yan's eyes, those evil spirits and demons were all walking experience packs.

Shi Yan didn't want to miss out on such a good thing that could improve his cultivation.

After all, we can't keep providing aid forever.

Occasionally, it's necessary to change things up and go into battle for a while.

Then continue with the aid... cough cough, what aid? It's clearly tutoring the girls in their studies, helping them to comprehend the Great Dao as soon as possible.

After hesitating for a moment, Xingcai finally agreed.

It's a good thing that young people want to push their limits.

This is a rare opportunity.

Moreover... Xingcai had already guessed that the collapse of the "Sword Tomb" was actually related to Shiyan.

This would allow Shi Yan to take this opportunity to accumulate merits, so that when the responsibility for the collapse of the "Sword Tomb" is investigated in the future, he can be completely absolved of it.

Moreover, he was not worried about Shi Yan's safety.

That afternoon, she specifically reminded her fourth sister to step in and save Shi Yan at the crucial moment.

Although... when she went to see her fourth sister in the afternoon, her fourth sister was clearly not in a good mood.

His breathing was a little rapid, and his eyes darted around as if he were absent-minded, only responding hastily. To exaggerate a bit, he looked like he had been caught red-handed.

The fourth sister Xingcai mentioned was not her biological sister.

Instead, she was the daughter of the second concubine, Xing Zhuo, who was also Xing Ke's fourth sister.

Beside Xingcai, the Golden Core cultivator who had been fawning over her glanced at Shi Yan's back with some displeasure.

In his eyes, Shi Yan was nothing more than a show-off.

He won the favor of the Xing family princess thanks to his good looks and good luck.

Thinking that he could face the horde of evil spirits and demons head-on once he reached the Crystal Realm, this brat will soon learn what a 'beast tide' truly means when those monsters pounce on him.

He didn't need to say it.

Shi Yan had already seen the evil spirits rushing towards him.

The first thing that came head-on was a leopard-shaped monster at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage.

Faced with the onrushing evil spirits, Shi Yan simply raised his right hand, "Snow Dance..."

A small, cold hand instinctively reached into Shi Yan's hand.

He is different from Master Jiuzhou.

Unlike Shi Jiuzhou, who possessed a soft and compassionate heart, the Dance of Fine Snow was designed with a different setting for where the sword was held.

Shi Yan and Xi Xue Zhi Wu clasped hands, and behind her, azure snowflakes suddenly began to flutter.

For the first time, the Dance of Fine Snow finally...fully revealed its brilliance and full potential.

Shi Yan held a deep blue ice sword in his hand.

It feels like a woman's cold hand.

Behind her, the phantom of the dance of fine snow appeared and disappeared, and the woman reached out her hand as if gently embracing Shi Yan from behind.

at the same time--

Six frost swords floated behind Shi Yan like six-pointed snowflakes, without rotating, but rather ice crystals gradually condensed between the frost swords.

Shi Yan lightly touched the ground with his toes and rushed towards the evil spirit.

The azure ice sword in her hand left snowy afterimages in the air, which were the frozen scabbards.

Shi Yan swung his first sword.
