After the time travel, my cheat program disappeared.

He hurriedly bowed to Shi Yan, and even tried to pull the little girl Ba along, but Shi Yan stopped him.

"My...my daughter has caused you so much trouble," the old woman said, her voice trembling.

“No... Little Ba is very cute.” Shi Yan looked the old man up and down.

The old man looks fine.

Perhaps it was out of duty, or perhaps out of consideration for him, but Xing Tiansi took good care of him.

The little girl, Ba, was being led by the old man's hand, still looking at Shi Yan with a pitiful expression.

"You're not a child anymore... and you still act so clingy." The old man just looked at the little girl beside him with affection.

"Ugh..."

"I'm sure I've caused you a lot of trouble."

"Boss...not young?" Shi Yan suddenly tilted his head.

The old man hesitated.

The teacher's words conveyed a deeper meaning.

She gestured to Jingse Mandala to take the little girl Ba out to play, and Donghuang Li and the others simply went out with them.

The old man then slowly revealed... that the little girl Ba's parents were from the Taiyi Sect.

Her mother was a sorcerer in the Taiyi Sect, and her father... was her mother's bodyguard.

Actually, men could become legitimate warlocks a long, long time ago.

But... because of the woman, he chose to continue being a guard.

It was about seventeen or eighteen years ago.

In a secluded place... a man was seriously injured while protecting a woman.

The old man's daughter-in-law left the secret realm with the seriously injured man and the little girl Ba, leaving the little girl Ba in his care before disappearing without a trace.

Little Ba's body and mind have almost remained stagnant at the age of ten or so.

An elderly person misses their child.

So they took their little girl, Ba, to live in Yanshui City, the city closest to the secret realm.

But then... they encountered a plague of corpses.

Shi Yan frowned.

Little girl Ba... is she a legal loli?

No... that's not the point at all.

The focus should be on that secret realm.

Yanshui City —

A secret realm.

Besides the "Tomb of Loulan", what else could there be?

Shi Yan casually asked about the little girl Ba's birthday, and then... upon hearing the answer, she suddenly froze.

The month of Gui Chou, the day of Geng Wu.

Isn't that a coincidence...?

Shi Yan remembers that day.

That was... Jun Qianrou's birthday.

It's also... my own birthday.

Little Ba, Jun Qianrou, and I were born on the same day, month, and year.

Oh.

Loulan.

Part 326: The Taiyi Sect Chapter - The Curtain Falls & The Ephemeral Flower and the Cactus [First Update 4K6]

I lingered at the Taiyi Sect for almost half a month.

During this time, Shi Yan did not do anything too outrageous.

In other words, the image of the pavilions and towers within the Purple Palace and Jade Palace seems to have become even more complete.

The stars in the sky are full of purple light.

Aid... [crossed out].

缘。

That's all fate.

When the time is right, enlightenment will naturally come.

It has absolutely nothing to do with 'aid'.

She did this to comfort Donghuang Li, who was heartbroken after losing contact with his sister.

It's definitely not because I'm attracted to her cultivation or looks.

If Shi Yan really is that kind of person...wouldn't it be better to just go find the more alluring and fierce Lord Dong Jun?

After all, marriage is a serious matter and not something to be taken lightly.

Everything needs to be planned carefully.

The next [Azure Sky Festival] is still several years away, giving Taiyi Sect and Shiyan plenty of time to prepare.

Moreover... unlike Wen Ruya, whom the previous Taiyi Sect Master had concerns about.

In Shi Yan's heart, there was another girl whose presence weighed heavily on him.

She is the person Shi Yan finds hardest to let go of.

Is she Jun Qianrou, the first character players encounter in the main storyline... and who is also closely related to the subsequent plot?

Shi Yan stroked the mechanical beast 'toy' in his hand.

Because it withstood the sword strike from the Pure Color Mandala, the mechanical beast's form appeared somewhat distorted.

——"Xiaxia".

Before Donghuang Li, before Wen Ruya, before Jun Qianrou... Shi Yan will always have to face Xia Xia.

Moreover... Donghuang Li's whereabouts are still unknown.

What kind of nonsense is it that he kidnapped Ah Li's sister?

The Taiyi Sect is still searching for Donghuang Li's whereabouts, and at the same time, they are making preparations for both possibilities.

They are preparing to have Donghuang Li replace Donghuang Li.

Shi Yan didn't know what Tianmo Bobeiye and A Li had talked about in the "Tomb of Loulan".

But... she had a premonition.

A-Li will only appear after Donghuang Li becomes the spokesperson for the Taiyi Sect.

She did it on purpose.

That's how she escaped... gave up... and relinquished everything that should have belonged to her to Donghuang Li.

Perhaps, in Donghuang Li's eyes, that was what she should do.

After that—

The Taiyi Sect will have another elder just like Dongjun.

Ah Li... what kind of name will she choose for herself?

The teacher said he didn't know.

But... it should be a good name.

Shi Yan, who had no interest in becoming the leader of a sect, did not think that it was a mistake for the girl to give up everything.

on the contrary--

That seems quite suitable.

Donghuang Li's personality, or at least the feigned one, is more suitable for being an heir.

As for Ah Li, let her be a carefree elder.

As for... [being in harmony with Heaven] and innate talent?

Shi Yan looked at his palm.

After witnessing their own talents, who would care whether Ah Li and Ah Li have six or seven meridians?

I made a promise with Dongjun.

I will definitely give the girl a proper title before the grand ceremony of the Heavenly Sacrifice.

In this way... Shi Yan can rightfully replace Donghuang Li in presiding over the [Cangtian Sacrifice].

In fact, Shi Yan wasn't particularly interested in what one could gain from the [Heavenly Sacrifice].

Cultivation level?

If you want to improve your cultivation, just go and seek enlightenment from beautiful older women.

Defying fate?

Look at your acquired fortune section, what strange and unusual things are there?

[The Evil God of the Year] is actually the only one that is relatively serious.

The following phrases, such as "naturally alluring," "exquisitely clever," "romantic and romantic," "incarnation of a white tiger," and "the body of creation," are all increasingly frivolous.

Although... they are indeed top-tier, even 'heaven-defying' and fate-altering.

But when they're displayed together, it always makes people think that the owner isn't a respectable person.
