After the time travel, my cheat program disappeared.

But in front of outsiders, she is still very well-behaved.

She simply huddled obediently in his arms, looking in Shi Yan's direction.

Then... he was blocked by Qin Suhuai.

The Womb Mandala gently poked Long Taojia's wrist, and Long Taojia was so frightened by the little demon that he almost jumped off his sword.

"Wh...what's wrong..." she seemed to be unable to speak properly.

The womb mandala simply pointed at Qin Suhuai and then pointed further back.

Long Taojia almost thought that this little demon was going to kill Qin Suhuai, but then he realized it when he saw the budding peaks protruding from Qin Suhuai's front.

The little demon in her arms wanted to see her master's words.

Long Taojia finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She and Xiaolin were specially invited by Qin Suhuai to support them.

By the way, could you also help guide the others?

But why is it that Peak Master Xiaolin is enjoying herself, with a little darling to hold?

When it comes to myself... I've truly become a 'little tyrant'.

Behind four spirit swords, immortal swords, and folding fans, Pure Color Mandala flew alone behind Shi Yan with a displeased expression.

Xiao Lin just smiled and looked at Sheng Nu from the side.

The girl pressed herself against Shi Yan's back, and her already taut silk skirt unconsciously bunched up into an exaggerated curve.

I didn't see that coming.

This little girl is quite something.

The future is promising, yet it can also be deceitful.

Four streaks of light shot towards Jiameng City.

Inside Jiameng City.

The merchants were still discussing the Sheng Yan sisters.

They had all seen how difficult Sheng Yan's life had been over the years.

To save money for her younger sister, the girl worked as a cook during the day and did odd jobs at a laundry after dark.

But... everyone in Jiameng City knows.

What kind of qualities does Sheng Yan's younger sister possess?

He was born without spiritual roots.

Forget about the salted fish turning over, even the fish ran away.

It seems that the sword immortal of the Azure Lotus Sword Sect only took her up the mountain out of pity.

Even before Shi Yan took out Qin Suhuai's sword spirit and said that he knew Sheng Nu, there were rumors that Sheng Nu had not been brought to the Qinglian Sword Sect at all.

They may have already died outside.

It's also possible... they were all sold to some unknown place.

The chatter among the old neighbors grew increasingly animated.

Sheng Yan has been gone for several days now.

Some say that the girl was beautiful and attracted the attention of a powerful figure in the Qinglian Sword Sect.

Some people say... that girl that day was just a liar.

After all, no one has ever seen what the sword token of the Azure Lotus Sword Sect looks like. It may have already been sold to Yinghua City.

Just then—

A little girl came running over with her short legs, panting, "Uncle Qin..."

"Uncle Qin..."

"Sister Shengyan is back."

"She also brought her sister with her."

With Shi Yan and Qin Suhuai on either side, they protected Sheng Nu in the middle.

The girl had just gone through a life-or-death battle, and her body was still somewhat weak.

Moreover... she had only recently broken through to the Qi Refining Realm.

Even after receiving one-on-one tutoring from Shi Yan so many times, his cultivation level has only just reached the ninth level of Qi Refining.

The Azure Lotus Sword Sect is searching for suitable spiritual energy for her to establish her foundation.

The most suitable one was the spiritual energy that Shi Yan had extracted from Shi Jiuzhou—the sword spiritual energy.

However, Shi Yan doesn't even have enough for himself right now.

Since her master, Jiuzhou, was now dressed in delicate silk attire, she couldn't possibly exhale her sword spirit energy for a girl to use.

Shi Yan and Qin Suhuai were 'refining' their girlish aura.

This prevents outsiders from seeing through her, creating the impression that the girl is actually very capable.

Sheng Yan had already jogged out of the group, introducing and boasting about her younger sister and Shi Yan to the familiar neighbors.

"This is the peak master of the Azure Lotus Sword Sect's Lan Jian Peak... Peak Master Xiao Lin."

"This is the senior sister of the Azure Lotus Sword Sect... Qin Suhuai."

"This is... Miss Shi Yan, who brought me to the Azure Lotus Sword Sect. She even drew the immortal sword from the Azure Lotus Sword Sect's mountain gate."

Sheng Yan couldn't help but boast, but she didn't see that while the people looked at her with admiration, they were also gradually becoming awestruck.

Those are all important figures they may never have the chance to meet in their lifetime.

"They are all very good to Anu..." The girl's eyes lit up with a bright smile when she mentioned her younger sister.

Behind them, Shi Yan watched Sheng Yan's beaming face and gently took Sheng Nu's hand. "Do you need me to lend you a hand?"

She and Sheng Nu share the same spiritual origin.

Theoretically speaking, Shi Yan could even grant Sheng Nu power similar to his own in a short period of time.

It's quite simple to just fake an aura to shock this group and boost Sheng Yan's morale.

This was entirely expected.

Sheng Nu simply shook her head slightly.

The girl is not the kind of girl who would resort to deception just to save face.

To bring glory to her sister, Sheng Nu simply... grasped the hilt of the sword hanging at her waist.

That was the reward given to her by the Azure Lotus Sword Sect after she came out of the "Tai Xu Secret Realm".

A fine sword blank.

Its quality is second only to Qin Suhuai's purple smoke.

The Azure Lotus Sword Sect originally intended to give this sword embryo to Shi Yan.

But... how could Shi Yan dare to accept?

In his heart, Shi Jiuzhou's lips were so pouting they could hang a wine jar on them.

She directly had Sister Xiaolin give the sword blank to Sheng Nu as a reward.

The girl simply gripped the sword.

Click, click—

The teacher seemed to hear a chilling, freezing sound.

However, she knew that this was just an illusion.

It was a sensitivity to the way of the sword that only she and Qin Suhuai could sense.

For example, Elder Xiaolin, who had absolutely no interest in swordsmanship, was squatting on the side, teasing the little Pixiu.

The sword intent soared to the heavens.

Sheng Nu simply stood there, as if countless broken swords lay scattered on the ground.

She stood up for her sister in a simpler and clearer way.

The master said they came down the mountain very late.

The girls chatted for a while, and then it was time for dinner.

Sheng Yan steeled herself and took out the spirit stones she had saved for many, many years, but which seemed pitifully few to Shi Yanxiaolin and the others.

She brought the girls to the restaurant where she worked.

There was no scene of looking down on others.

Qin Suhuai and Xiaolin only needed to stand there to quiet down the entire restaurant.

on the contrary--

The restaurant owner must really be very nice to Sheng Yan.

Seeing the girl frantically taking out spirit stones, he took her to a corner and chattered for a long time. Only after seeing Sheng Nu's face, which was almost identical to Sheng Yan's, did he feel relieved.

Hearing that Sheng Yan had been hired to stay at the Qinglian Sword Sect as a cook for his younger sister, he was both heartbroken and overjoyed.

They immediately offered to waive the bill for Sheng Yan.
