These fairies want me to deal with them every day.

"Let me help Sister Xitong put her hair up."

He said that.

The breaths were so close that Mu Xitong was caught off guard for a moment, and her eyes darted away slightly.

"You can even do your hair?"

"I know a little."

Wei Tu grasped her silky long hair.

Of course he could. The memory of drawing Su Mi's eyebrows and styling her hair in his past life was deeply ingrained in his heart, and the familiar feeling returned as soon as he started.

Wei Tu gently coiled her hair in her hands, holding the hairpin in her hand, and accurately inserted it into the right place.

Wei Tu loosened his grip slightly.

"Well, all right."

"So fast?"

Mu Xitong was so focused on the boy's fingers running through her hair that they sometimes tightened her scalp.

She could indeed feel the boy's skill; he didn't hurt her, and he did it very quickly.

"Everyone says I know it."

Mu Xitong looked down at the water, where her face was reflected, along with her long, smooth hair that was neatly coiled at the back of her head. It looked very gentle and suited her face shape perfectly.

"You've practiced on quite a few people, haven't you?"

Suddenly, Mu Xitong said this.

Wei Tu smiled but did not answer, because she felt it was inappropriate to answer at that moment.

It seems that saying anything at this point would be touching a taboo.

Mu Xitong looked at the boy who was grinning foolishly.

"Alright, I'm not jealous. Do you think I'd be jealous of your little girls? I can't possibly handle all of them, so stop being so narcissistic."

Wei Tu smiled and said softly, "No matter what, Sister Xitong is one of a kind."

"Do you even need to tell me? Let's go."

Mu Xitong turned around and walked ahead.

Facing the wind, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly.

Some sweet words are like words you know are useless, but you can't help feeling happy and sweet about them; otherwise, how could they be called sweet talk?

The road ahead is still long, but the sun has already risen. PS: I'm back to normal today! After much painful reflection, I'm abstaining from alcohol this year! More health updates coming up!

2. Those who disobey must be punished!

It was the next day when they left Lin Yuan City and returned to Yuan Jian Sect.

The teleportation took some time, and when they arrived at Yuanjian Sect, the scale of the event was even more impressive than when Wei Tu returned last time.

It was almost as if the deafening sound of gongs and drums and the simultaneous deafening crackling of firecrackers were the only descriptions available.

But the difference isn't that big.

The disciples gathered on both sides of the mountain path, their heads practically overflowing, as if they were welcoming the return of some important figure.

Of course, in the eyes of these young disciples, Wei Tu and the others had indeed become important figures.

Especially under Wei Tu's deliberate arrangement, Jiang Ying, who became the leader of the contemporary Dragon Slayer Ranking, became the object of worship for many male and female disciples.

After all, for a woman to reach the top of the Dragon Slayer List is something that many people have not been able to do. In fact, as time goes by, many people don't even dare to dream of it. But those who weren't there at the time wouldn't know that it was Wei Tu's surrender that made all of this possible.

But it doesn't matter anymore. Wei Tu really doesn't care about this matter. He has already been the top person in his previous life, so there is no point in doing it again.

The presence of numerous disciples and the welcoming ceremony by elders clearly indicated a high level of prestige.

After these meetings concluded briefly, Wei Tu, Jiang Ying, and Qiao Zhiheng were naturally invited to the Baoguang Hall, where the elders gathered together.

They discussed together how to reward the disciples.

Qiao Zhiheng was already a true disciple, and this time, at the suggestion of Yuan Wei and Lin Ruoyin, he also promoted Wei Tu and Jiang Ying to the level of true disciples.

That is equivalent to a candidate for the next generation of elders.

Of course, it doesn't necessarily have to wait until Yuan Wei and others retire.

If the Yuanjian Sect continues to develop at this pace, its power will soon expand, whether it's the number of disciples from the Immortal Continent who come to join it, the expansion of its surrounding territory, or the growth of its resources.

Perhaps other mountain strongholds will be added, and then the three of them will become elders, and it will be just around the corner for them to establish their own mountain sects.

For many practitioners, establishing their own school of thought is a dream come true.

It's not just about gaining a reputation; if you're lucky, you can also cultivate a disciple with exceptional talent, and you'll share in the glory in the future.

However, Wei Tu wasn't very interested in this. He was the kind of person who would just leave things to himself. Opening a mountain gate or taking on disciples would only cause him trouble.

He had absolutely no interest in training male disciples; if they were all female disciples... that would be difficult to explain.

At this moment, all he could do was sit in the Baoguang Hall, bored and dozing off, listening to the elders praising each other and showering praise on their three young disciples. It was incredibly boring.

Meanwhile, Xu Qingtan, who did not need to enter the Baoguang Hall, returned to the crowd.

She was greeted by Jiang Yuqi and Qin Xiaoman, who had come up the mountain with her and were, so far, her only two friends. As for Wei Tu, what was he? Of course, he was a big bad guy.

He's a terrible guy who made me overthink things and almost made me commit suicide on the spot.

"Old Xu, you're finally back!"

Jiang Yuqi stepped forward, wanting to give Xu Qing a brotherly hug, or at least that's what he thought.

However, Xu Qingtan managed to slightly twist her body and avoid the other person's embrace.

Jiang Yuqi stood awkwardly for a moment after his hands fell empty, but he quickly recovered. He figured that was just Xu Qingtan's personality—she liked to act cool and aloof. But there was nothing he could do; they were her only good friends!

"Oh dear, even after all this time, Lao Xu, you still know how to hurt people."

Xu Qing glanced at Jiang Yuqi with annoyance, his voice deliberately low, as usual.

"You make it sound like it's been a long time, it hasn't even been a month."

Qin Xiaoman said with a smile, "Have you ever heard the saying 'a day apart feels like three autumns'?"

"Hey, hey, hey, that's not the case. Although we're brothers, it hasn't gotten to the point where things have turned sour."

Jiang Yuqi quickly waved his hand, seemingly worried that Qin Xiaoman would misunderstand his sexual orientation.

Xu Qing glanced at the two of them and said, "If you have nothing to say, I'll go back. I still need to cultivate."

Qin Xiaoman smiled and hugged Xu Qingtan's arm. Xu Qingtan looked down at her action and, to be honest, felt a little awkward.

Although they are both women... the other party doesn't know that.

Jiang Yuqi's eyes, however, seemed somewhat strange.

Qin Xiaoman laughed and said, "You just got back and you're already practicing cultivation? Are you a cultivation maniac? Come on! Let's go have a drink first. Jiang Yuqi always says he has no one to drink with."

"I didn't say that."

"Hahaha, now you're embarrassed. Come on, come on, I want to hear you tell me about the interesting things that happened on this trip!"

-

"Alright, that's all for today. The rewards will be delivered to your sect later. You may leave now."

"Yes!"

The elders agreed.

At this moment, Wei Tu stood up and looked at the sect leader Ran Xinxue, who was sitting in the main seat, still wearing a snow-white long dress that matched her white clothes very well.

"Sect Master, has my master not emerged from seclusion yet?"

Ran Xinxue glanced at the handsome young man who was looking at her.

She suddenly seemed to remember something and said, "Oh right, I was just about to tell you this. You guys go ahead, Wei Tu, you stay."

Wei Tu nodded, his face expressionless.

Jiang Ying glanced at Wei Tu, then at Ran Xinxue, but ultimately said nothing and left Baoguang Hall.

Mu Xitong, who was holding the little fox, gave a meaningful look, but Lin Ruoyin didn't notice anything. She left Baoguang Hall with Mu Xitong, and soon, only the two regular guests remained in the huge Baoguang Hall.

He is indeed a regular customer.

Wei Tu himself felt that he had been here many times, even more so than the room on Xiaoyuan Peak that was occupied by Xu Qingtan.

You can sense the placement of each chair, and even what extra items have been added.

However, Wei Tu felt a little awkward meeting with two old acquaintances, as if he didn't know what to say.

He just watched Ran Xinxue, while this extremely beautiful and mature woman seemed much more normal than himself.

As always, I felt disgust, staring at myself with disdain.

Perhaps realizing she hadn't spoken for too long, she spoke in a stiff tone.

"What's wrong? You've become timid after coming back. You don't even dare to look at me?"

Wei Tu shook his head, "No, it's just that it suddenly feels a bit unfamiliar."

"strangeness?"

He frowned as he looked at the newly fallen snow.

Wei Tu thought for a moment and said, "Hmm, unfamiliar. For example, seeing you speaking so eloquently and genuinely for the sake of the sect seems much more real than your previous pretense."

Sometimes, harsh words can actually make Ran Xinxue get used to it, and such sudden honesty can easily catch people off guard.

"What do you mean by real or fake... I don't understand. I've always been this way. I won't change because of anything, and don't even think about it."

Ran Xinxue turned her head away, still as arrogant as ever.

Wei Tu smiled indifferently.

"Alright, alright, I understand. Now tell me about my master's situation. What happened?"
