Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 2440: Chapter 1104: Zixi (Part 3)

”Long time no see... Zixi.”

Dressed in white, ethereal and enchanting, her beauty was like an illusion that captivated the soul and consumed the heart. This young girl, a direct lineage of the Bai Family and the most beautiful woman of the Bai Family, was the only daughter of Bai Qiancheng—

Bai Zixi.

Bai Zixi bowed gracefully to the Taixu Sect Master, with politeness and elegance, saying, ”Uncle.”

The Taixu Sect Master nodded slightly, sighed inwardly, and asked, ”Why did the Old Madame let you out?”

Bai Zixi said gracefully, ”By the orders of the Old Madame, I am to visit an elder. Passing through the Qian Learning State Boundary, I came to visit you specially, Uncle.”

Her voice was gentle yet melodious, both crystal clear like ice and snow, and carrying a hint of spring’s bright laziness, just listening to it moved the soul.

The Taixu Sect Master increasingly felt a headache.

This ”Uncle”, naturally, was not a blood uncle.

In an aristocratic family like Bai, the larger the family, the more people there were; the more people, the more blood relatives, and the more complex the kinship relations.

But his lineage and the Bai Family had quite a close relationship, so this ”Uncle” title, he could indeed bear.

And in her childhood, he had indeed seen Zixi.

At that time, Zixi was just a little girl; because her mother was extremely beautiful, and her father, who could not be mentioned, was also a paragon among men, combining the beauty of both parents, even as a child, it was already apparent she would be a peerless beauty.

Not to mention, she had awakened her bloodline.

This ancient bloodline, coupled with her overwhelming beauty, and the noble aura inherited from her paragon parents, made her beauty carry an innate ”sense of invasion”, capable of capturing others’ hearts almost instantly.

Especially since her heaven-defying bloodline was more tempting to women than men.

Thus, she was almost a born ”calamity”.

Since childhood, her mother Bai Qiancheng had instructed her to disguise herself and conceal her aura wherever she went, and if necessary, to wear a veil to hide her appearance.

These methods worked well during her childhood.

But as she grew older and matured, her beauty became even more breathtaking, and her fairy-like aura spread.

Even through the veil, one could sense her extraordinary beauty.

More importantly, the allure from her bloodline depths became increasingly potent.

This was practically an ”unparalleled calamity”.

No matter where she went, it would cause immense trouble.

Even the Taixu Sect Master felt tremendous pressure.

However, since she had come to the Taixu Gate, as her ”Uncle”, he was naturally obliged to be a gracious host and entertain her properly.

”The Taixu Gate is also an ancient Great Sect, with deep foundations. Although only a Fifth grade, it’s not as esteemed as the Bai Family or those Sixth grade Sects and families of the Zulong State, but it is still quite a remarkable sect.”

”Moreover, now that the Three Mountains have united, and with the disciples’ concerted efforts, winning the Qianxue Discussion of Dao first place, in time, it will surely be another grand scene...”

The Taixu Sect Master spoke with humility mingled with a hint of pride, then said:

”Since you’re here, it’s a rare opportunity. Allow me to take you around, to look about...”

Bai Zixi said, ”Thank you, Uncle.”

Afterwards, the Taixu Sect Master personally led Bai Zixi on a tour around the Taixu Gate.

The previous disciples had left the sect, and the next batch had not yet been recruited, so Taixu Mountain was tranquil.

On the long mountain path, only mist lingered.

Along the way, the Taixu Sect Master, as her ”Uncle”, continuously introduced the famous sites of Taixu Mountain and the history of the Taixu Gate.

Bai Zixi mostly remained silent, occasionally nodding faintly, saying pleasant and polite words.

The Taixu Sect Master sighed in his heart, feeling a bit melancholic.

In her childhood, although this little niece of his had a cold nature and was diligent and earnest in cultivation, she still possessed some human warmth, occasionally even smiling.

Now, beyond ”beauty”, her every word and expression seemed veiled in a layer of ”veil”.

Although her words were appropriate and her attitude courteous, they carried a cold aloofness.

Everything on Taixu Mountain, in her eyes, seemed like inconsequential ”outside matters” and ”lifeless objects”, unable to leave any trace in her heart.

It wasn’t like this before...

Since she left the Bai Family, drifting and wandering, painstakingly taking a master, no one knew what she experienced, even the Eternal Life Rune shattered. Upon returning, she almost never smiled, and her nature grew colder, gradually becoming like this.

Of course, the shattered Eternal Life Rune was mended by another Old Ancestor of the Bai Family.

To have the privilege of obtaining another after the Rune shattered was unprecedented, even within the entire Bai Family.

This alone demonstrated the Old Ancestor’s affection for her, as well as the family’s regard for her.

Since then, Zixi was taken under the Old Madame’s wing, carefully nurtured, almost becoming isolated from the world.

However, with the Old Madame’s identity and status, compared to ordinary cultivators, it was like existing in two different worlds.

Whether isolated or not, it didn’t matter anymore.

The two continued to walk forward, the Taixu Sect Master talking while Bai Zixi listened impassively.

Until they walked into the small library on the south side of the Disciple’s Residence, Bai Zixi saw the big white dog in front of the library, and her tone finally showed a hint of fluctuation:

”This is...”

The Taixu Sect Master nodded, ”It’s the youngest offspring of the family Bai Ze exotic beast. Previously, when the sect was disturbed by an evil spirit, I brought it over to keep it suppressed for a while.”
