Longevity Begins From Raising Disciples

Chapter 380: Chapter 206: Journey to the Grotto Heaven, Fame Far and Wide!

Is it this person who wants to harm Master...

”What kind of person am I as a Master? How could I be easily wronged.”

Chen Ye found it amusing, this girl worried too much about her Master.

Now, it seemed she was still rubbing against him with her arm?

Wait...

Chen Ye was startled. He reached inside his black robe and unexpectedly felt a furry little creature.

He quietly lifted a corner of the black robe, only to see that the little white fox that was supposed to stay in Lisong Valley was curled up into a ball, sleeping soundly, lying snugly in Zhiwei’s arms.

”Zhiwei, what’s going on?” Chen Ye was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, ”How did Xiao Bai end up here?”

The black-haired little girl blinked her eyes:

”Master, Xiao Bai... often falls into deep sleep for several days. Moreover, when it sleeps, its aura becomes as concealed as a common beast, making it very easy to hide, so...”

”So you secretly brought it along?” Chen Ye felt a headache coming on, ”Nonsense! We’re going on a life-and-death risky expedition, not a sightseeing tour! Why bring a pet?”

He had long known that Xiao Bai was very fond of sleeping, spending most of its time asleep.

But he hadn’t expected it to sleep for two months in Luoli Courtyard!

Moreover, when he initially took Zhiwei out of the wooden box, he hadn’t seen this little fox...

Zhiwei timely explained, ”When we arrived at Luoli Courtyard, the journey was too long, Xiao Bai woke up once midway and ran out to play. It was only when I settled in at Luoli Courtyard that it ran back on its own; I don’t know how it found me.”

”I’m not asking about that; I’m asking why you brought it!” Chen Ye glared at his eldest disciple.

”Clearly Master wanted to know...”

The black-haired little girl weakly retorted, and then her voice suddenly became serious,

”Master, don’t you think that Xiao Bai’s origins are extraordinary? Its agility is far superior to that of ordinary demon beasts, and its intelligence seems enlightened. Moreover, it mysteriously appeared in Lisong Valley just after the Grotto Heaven manifested. Zhiwei believes it has some connection with the Grotto Heaven and can assist Master at crucial moments!”

This explanation rendered Chen Ye speechless.

Thinking it over, it indeed made sense.

But this little fox was like an ungrateful wretch; despite being raised for so long, it constantly huffed at him!

Hopefully, it wouldn’t mess things up...

Despite these thoughts, after some consideration, Chen Ye eventually consented to his eldest disciple’s decision.

...

The crowd murmured noisily for a while, and then a clear sword cry resonated through the skies.

Wei Shu soared on his sword, his voice like a booming bell echoing across the entire square:

”The time has come! All those participating in the Songyang Cave Heaven expedition, depart immediately!”

As his voice fell, several giant Spiritual Ships slowly started, first carrying the disciples of various major families, flying toward the direction of the Three Thousand Great Mountains.

In an instant, radiant and colorful, sword qi crisscrossed, the grand procession vanished into the horizon.

On one of the flying ships, Xu Henshan leisurely strolled into the cabin, glancing at the little girl who was staring blankly into the sky, and said faintly, ”What are you thinking about?”

”Nothing.”

The little girl was delicate and pretty, dressed in a light purple gown, her silver hair cascading like a waterfall, resting her chin with a vacant gaze.

Xu Henshan knew well that this little girl had something on her mind.

He smiled enigmatically, ”Little girl, since you have joined the Xu family, from now on you will have no worries...”

Qing Jun pouted.

She didn’t want to join the Xu family!

She was Chen Ye’s disciple, not Xu family’s disciple!

Hmm...

She had just felt as if she sensed Master’s presence.

But Master was clearly at Lisong Valley, how could he have come here?

She shook her little head vigorously, banishing the unrealistic thought, and her longing for the Master who always loved to tease yet doted on her grew more intense.

Master, Qing Jun will... will soon return.

By then, you must prepare lots and lots of delicious food for Qing Jun!

The little girl was now very confident.

If Master didn’t listen, she would threaten Master! Saying... she’d say she’d stay in the Xu family, and then Master would surely surrender obediently, right?

As for the Master whom the little girl was yearning for,

his face was somewhat grim at this moment.

Strange...

Wasn’t it said that he would be going to Songyang Cave Heaven with the Xu family team?

Wei Shu returned on his sword, looking down from above at the remaining cultivators:

”Why aren’t you boarding the Spiritual Ship quickly?”

With that, he gave a signal to the Inner Sect disciples beside him.

Those few Inner Sect disciples understood, and one of them took out a black token, muttering incantations, and pointed towards the crowd!

”Ah—!”

”Uh...”

Suddenly, cries of anguish sounded one after another!

All the conscripted Sinful Cultivators only felt the Spiritual Lock Nail in their Dantian tighten sharply, the heart-wrenching pain instantly spreading throughout their bodies!

”What are you dawdling for! Get on quickly!” A stern Inner Sect disciple shouted, driving them like livestock.

Under the coercion of intense pain, where could the cultivators dare to hesitate for even a second? Scrambling and crawling, they hurried to the last Spiritual Ship at the edge of the square.

Leaving only Chen Ye and others behind.

”Steward Chen, you must be puzzled, right?”

Wei Shu looked at Chen Ye with a grin, speaking leisurely,

”Do you think Guardian Bai would assign you to the Xu family’s Spiritual Ship?”

His smile suddenly vanished, and his tone turned icy:

”Unfortunately, Guardian Bai repeatedly defied the Second Elder’s orders, and now, he’s been confined again... Hmm? Is this the little girl Mao Songli brought back earlier? Not bad, not bad. Having a little girl for company, our journey won’t be lonely, will it?”

Chen Ye’s face turned cold, how could he not detect malice in Wei Shu’s words?

Fortunately.

His Cyan Wave Sword Control Technique had broken the limit, and though his spiritual power was restricted, he still possessed the might of sword energy, which meant he wasn’t without a trump card!
