Longevity Begins From Raising Disciples

Chen Ye’s heart tightened.

Bai Li wants to probe his sea of consciousness?

But at this moment, he is not the original ”Chen Ye”.

His cultivation level has already reached the late period of Foundation Establishment.

”If Bai Li discovers my true cultivation or senses the anomaly in my sea of consciousness, this act of being an amnesiac loose cultivator will completely fall apart. And even...”

Chen Ye gritted his teeth secretly.

Considering Bai Li’s current situation, if he finds out that I’m hiding my cultivation to get close to them, he would undoubtedly become suspicious!

Chen Ye opened his mouth, about to find an excuse to refuse,

but Bai Li spoke softly:

”The chaotic void currents are no small matter. Although you survived by luck, if residual fragments remain in the sea of consciousness, not only will your cultivation be unable to progress, but there is also the risk of your divine soul tearing at any moment.”

Damn...

With these words, Chen Ye could neither refuse in terms of emotion nor reason.

If he forcefully refuses, it will also make Bai Li suspicious.

This matter is no small affair.

Chen Ye also wants to get in touch with Little Susu through Bai Li to understand this world.

But if Bai Li starts doubting him, he might either kill him on the spot or take Susu and flee, and they would no longer have any interaction.

”Then... I’ll have to trouble Brother Bai.”

Chen Ye took a deep breath and obediently stretched out his right hand.

Forget it.

This Brother Bai is, to some extent, his father-in-law; they’re all family, so what’s there to hide?

If worst comes to worst.

He might as well confess everything in advance. With his knowledge of the Lingyin Sect, perhaps he could earn a bit of trust.

Of course, this is only the last resort.

After hearing his explanation, Bai Li might even think he’s a demon cultivator sent by the Emotion Crossing Sect to deceive people’s hearts; coming from twenty years in the future is too absurd.

No matter what Chen Ye thought,

Bai Li’s fingertip had already gently touched Chen Ye’s pulse.

A strand of soft spiritual Qi, like a spring breeze turning into rain, flowed through Chen Ye’s meridians.

Chen Ye held his breath.

Wait, should he shout ”Father-in-law, please let me explain” directly?

No, no, no.

Right now, Bai Susu is still Little Susu!

If he really shouted that, he’d likely be chopped into bits by Bai Li!

However,

the expected shock and confrontation didn’t occur.

That spiritual Qi roamed within Chen Ye’s body, passing smoothly through his unusually wide meridians, touching the great circulation in his dantian, and even contacting his pure divine soul,

but Bai Li’s expression remained calm.

He was meticulously probing, his expression serious, as if he hadn’t noticed any abnormalities within Chen Ye.

Didn’t notice?

How could he not notice?!

With Bai Li’s capability as a top-tier prodigy, he should certainly spot abnormalities even in a Golden Core true man.

”Indeed, severely injured.”

After a while, Bai Li withdrew his finger, looking at Chen Ye’s pale face, heaving a long sigh,

”The edges of your sea of consciousness exhibit intense vibrations and tearing marks, and the spiritual Qi in your meridians is exceedingly depleted. It seems you were indeed caught in some dangerous spatial turbulence. To have escaped with your life is already fortunate, no wonder you’ve lost your memory.”

Chen Ye suppressed the shock in his heart, retrieved his hand, and shook his head bitterly:

”Thank you, Brother Bai, for probing... My mind is now muddled and feels completely blank.”

”Oh dear, big brother, don’t be scared, Jiaming is here! Jiaming will stay with you all the time!”

Qin Jiaming interjected at just the right moment, appearing as though she truly was just a pure-hearted girl concerned about a companion.

Chen Ye couldn’t help but grumble again:

”Um, Miss Qin, we’ve known each other for less than a month, right?”

”So what? Even if we’ve only known each other for a month, we’ve experienced life and death together; that’s bonding through shared tribulation!”

The girl confidently placed her hands on her waist and slightly raised her chin,

”Moreover, big brother, you’ve forgotten everything now, looking all dazed and silly. If I weren’t watching over you, you wouldn’t even know if someone abducted you to refine you into a blood pill on the street! I’m just being kind!”

Chen Ye simply shut his mouth.

This girl is really too forward.

”Alright.”

Watching the two bicker, Bai Li shook his head, a gentle smile appearing on his handsome face,

”Since you’ve returned safely, take the next few days to rest in the rear courtyard’s wing room. This place is where my old friend resides. Although Chouyun Pass is chaotic, as long as you don’t leave this door, ordinary demon cultivators wouldn’t dare make trouble here.”

He spoke and turned, walking to the corner beside the small spirit field.

Bai Li crouched down, carefully adjusting the tender leaves of a Starface Flower, with a touch of Geng Metal Qi at his fingertip, slowly pruning the Starface Flower.

”Brother Bai, why haven’t I seen... Susu?”

Chen Ye suppressed the doubts in his heart and tentatively asked.

”That girl complains that these few Starface Flowers I planted grow too slowly, they’re not bright enough at night, and insists on finding some Moonlight Dew to water them. Just now, she rushed off to the market on the front street.”

Bai Li patted the dust off his hands,

”This kid just can’t stay idle. But, someone is accompanying her, so she won’t be in any danger.”

”That old friend?”

Chen Ye thought to himself, while outwardly remaining calm.

For Bai Li, the unparalleled prodigy of the Lingyin Sect, the qilin child of the righteous sect known once in centuries, to have an ”old friend” he could entrust his daughter with in this Qi Kingdom full of demon cultivators who consume people without leaving bones?

”With Brother Bai’s friend taking care, naturally it’s safe.”

Chen Ye agreed, nodding, suppressing the turmoil in his heart.

In reality, his heart is now like a cat scratching, extremely eager to meet Little Susu.
