These fairies want me to deal with them every day.

She glanced at Wei Tu, looking somewhat at a loss.

"I understand... I feel the same way... I'll never abandon you, Senior Brother. But before... you won't be angry with me, will you?"

Wei Tu smiled and pulled the girl into his arms.

"How could that be? I wouldn't be that naive. If my junior sister doubts me a thousand times, I will explain ten thousand times until she completely trusts me."

"Senior brother..."

The girl hugged the boy's waist, deeply moved.

Wei Tu smelled the fragrance of her beautiful hair and felt a lingering fear.

It's not that he's deliberately deceiving her, because he will absolutely not leave Su Mi; that's for sure, until death do them part.

But I can't guarantee that I'll only have her...

Wei Tu suddenly said.

"By the way, junior sister, your senior brother has a serious question for you."

"what?"

"How much longer until you reach the Dragon Slayer Realm?"

"Hmm... I just broke through to the seventh rank of the Fusion Realm a few days ago... It should still take some time, right? What's wrong?"

"We need to hurry."

Will something happen?

Su Mi suddenly asked with concern.

"No, it's just that my senior brother couldn't hold it in any longer."

"...Senior Brother!!" PS: I was just kidding earlier, how could I be so arrogant? I just need to come up with something new every time I ask for monthly votes, right? Actually, what I really wanted to say was, let's have some rich guys fight Pangu, don't force me to beg you.

52. Just the way I like it. (Bonus chapter 13 for monthly votes)

The sword-training area is a very special... yet very ordinary open space.

Well, what's special about this place is that the bricks on the ground are covered with sword marks, and almost all the targets are scarred.

Why are there only scratches and not destruction? Because the fencing ground has rules: everything is for training, not for venting.

The biggest difference between using a sword and using a knife is that using a knife emphasizes that one must go without returning, while the other is about overwhelming force with all strength.

The sword, on the other hand, must have both restraint and extension, combining strength and gentleness. Every strike you make must have the ability to be reversed. Your sword techniques can be ornate or simple, but they must have a beginning and an end, so that they are not irreversible.

This is the result of many years of experience in Kendo, so you can mark these targets with your sword, but you can't destroy them.

If such a disciple appears, he/she will often have to do some hard labor in the sect to make up for his/her mistakes.

It is indeed ordinary, because any disciple can come and go here. As long as they don't take someone else's spot and wait patiently, the person who has finished practicing will leave, and someone else can take their place. There is no distinction between personal disciples and outer disciples.

Standing next to the sword-training platform, Wei Tu wondered if he had also found an outer disciple.

That is, Empress Ye Bingluan of the Great Shang Dynasty.

Before leaving, he taught Ye Bingluan some details and tips about cultivation. What truly amazed Wei Tu was that she was able to absorb them so quickly, as if they were etched into her very bones and she had simply recalled them.

It was at that time that Wei Tu became even more convinced that this girl was very likely the reincarnation of a great immortal from a previous life, otherwise such talent would be impossible to explain.

It just seems inappropriate to think of Ye Bingluan at this time.

After all, not only was Su Mi by his side at this moment, but the two of them were also looking at that unique figure on the sword-training platform.

Its unique aesthetic appeal is evident in the graceful, flowing movements of each sword strike.

Without a sword, she seemed like just a cold, emotionless, and even dull-looking beautiful girl.

But when she wields a sword, it's as if all the spiritual energy of heaven and earth flows to her, making her figure appear vivid and invincible.

Every move he made was so captivating that many of the surrounding disciples seemed unable to concentrate on their sword practice. Well... especially the male disciples, they really disgraced men!

Wei Tu thought to himself, his eyes burning with intensity.

The girl standing in the sword-fighting arena had a beautiful figure, but probably no one would be amazed by her figure at this moment.

Because anyone could see that every time this girl drew her sword, it was as if she were completely at ease, and with just one glance, it was as if she were about to become one with the atmosphere created by the other party.

She was so beautiful, like a finely crafted sword with the most exquisite patterns, yet also with a sharp blade.

The sunlight slanted down and fell on her long, flowing hair, making each strand's movement so graceful and captivating.

Wei Tu also watched very carefully.

She finally stopped slowly and casually wiped the sweat from her forehead with her sleeve.

As she turned around, she immediately saw the boy gazing at her from beside the sword-practice area, and then she saw the girl smiling and waving at her beside him.

But none of this stopped her from moving forward without hesitation.

Wei Tu watched her walk over, and he was also moved.

She is like a ray of light, always shining steadfastly in the direction she is in.

"Senior Sister Jiang, you practice your swordplay so beautifully!"

Jiang Ying walked up to the two of them and stared intently at Wei Tu.

It was as if the two pairs of eyes could convey the boundless longing that had been building up over the past few days simply by looking at each other.

Wei Tu felt most guilty about this. He had to admit that during his time in the mortal realm, he would often think of everything about the Yuanjian Sect, but he thought of Su Mi even more.

Not being able to share one's longing equally might also be a kind of debt. Although Jiang Ying didn't care, Wei Tu understood that although it seemed that he was reborn to make up for everything, in fact... he owed more and more.

Hearing Su Mi's words, Jiang Ying would normally ignore them, simply staring at him and waiting for him to speak first.

But Jiang Ying didn't know how far the relationship between the two girls had developed recently. She turned to look at Su Mi, shook her head, and said...

"There are still many shortcomings, and it may only get better when we reach the Dragon Slaying Realm."

"What realm has Senior Sister reached?"

Wei Tu interrupted at this moment.

So when Jiang Ying, who had been calm when facing Su Mi, saw the boy's eyes light up again, and the corners of her mouth curled up as if she couldn't control her smile and tenderness.

"Ninth grade of the Fusion Realm... just one step away. It's just that I haven't felt the breakthrough yet, otherwise I could go into seclusion."

Seeing the contrast in attitude before and after, even the number of words is different.

Su Mi, somewhat annoyed, reached out and took Jiang Ying's arm, then said indignantly.

"Senior Sister Jiang~ Didn't I already tell you not to be so nice to him? Men are like that, they just take advantage of you. The nicer you are to him, the more he'll think about how to bully you!"

Wei Tu touched his nose.

It has to be said that from the past to the present, and into the future, Su Mi will always be the one who understands me the most.

It has even reached the point of being ubiquitous.

Jiang Ying glanced at Su Mi, looking somewhat puzzled.

"Then... let him bully him."

"How can he do that! Wouldn't that make him lawless and want to find many women outside, no... maybe many senior sisters! Then he'll call any fairy older than him 'senior sister,' is that okay?"

Jiang Ying then became unsettled.

His brows furrowed slightly.

Sure enough, this woman was quite concerned about her unique identity as a senior sister.

Because no matter who Wei Tu refers to as "senior sister," he always means Jiang Ying. If he refers to another woman of the same generation but who is a little older, he would add her surname.

Adding or not adding a surname makes a world of difference in the relationship and how the person is addressed.

"That won't do."

Jiang Ying looked at Su Mi seriously and said.

Su Mi beamed with joy, as if his wicked scheme had succeeded.

"That's right~ So we need to unite and keep a close watch on this peach blossom spirit, so he doesn't go out and harm people. Even if you, Senior Sister, are at the Dragon Slaying Realm, you can't be alone with him, lest..."

Su Mi's cheeks flushed slightly, clearly recalling the hints Wei Tu had given her earlier. She felt a mix of shyness, nervousness, and anticipation.

Her premonition was that the Dragon Slayer Realm would arrive sooner or later, but she couldn't imagine what it would be like for her and him... like on their wedding night...

That's enough to make an inexperienced young girl nervous and shy.

Jiang Ying, however, hesitated.

"Is that not allowed either...?"

Wei Tu watched as the two of them went further and further off track, and interrupted them impatiently.

"You two are plotting right in front of me, aren't you? Well then, I'm going to have to reassert my husbandly authority..."

"Pah, pah, pah! What kind of husbandly authority do you have? Don't take this opportunity to spout nonsense!"

Wei Tu said with a smile.

"Alright, if I'm not, then I probably don't have an obligation to cook for you, right? What a pity, I was planning to make a grand feast today..."

"That won't do!! Nothing that's supposed to be done can be omitted! I think you're just trying to annoy me, Sister Jiang, let's tie him up and take him to the kitchen!"

Of course, he couldn't be tied up, otherwise Wei Tu would have no face left.

Indeed, it was because the two women were too proud to do such a thing, since there were still many disciples on the sword-training platform.

Even when they saw the boy chatting and laughing between Jiang Ying and Su Mi, two famous and beautiful genius girls, and the two girls blushing frequently, their hearts turned as cold as swords.

The place they went to was Xuejian Peak, not Xiaoyuan Peak, because there really wasn't much decent food on Xiaoyuan Peak. Lu Qingyan had been eating very lightly, and even tried to avoid eating altogether, maintaining a state of fasting.

Occasionally, Wei Tu would cook a meal for her every few days before she would eat a little.

Xuejian Peak has plenty of ingredients, which is related to Lin Ruoyin's status in the Yuanjian Sect.

Even Wei Tu didn't know much about Lin Ruoyin. He only knew that she seemed to be the offspring of several generations of elders of the Yuanjian Sect. She showed extremely high talent from birth and then naturally rose from a true disciple to the position of elder. Her cultivation level was probably not much different from Lu Qingyan's, or even slightly higher. However, in terms of actual combat, Lu Qingyan's methods were more decisive and efficient.

Just as Wei Tu was cooking in the kitchen.
