As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life

Chapter 631: Chapter 219: The Despair of Knowing Longevity but Unable to Obtain It, the Dao Fruit Nurtures All Five Zang Divine Gang_2

Within this city, there were taverns, teahouses, medical halls, and the like, where transactions were conducted using sect contributions or Divinity Crystals.

Jiao Shaoqiu led Li Che and his family into the city.

“Because there are so many Strange Temples within the Divine Sect Mountain Gate, as night falls, Mysterious Fog will breed and spread, and the Temple Guardian Cursed Corpses and evil spirits within Strange Que will emerge. Therefore, the sect has built these cities to allow disciples to cultivate within them. Even deep into the night, the cities will remain insulated from the Mysterious Fog and Strange Que, providing a secure place for disciples to stay.”

“There are several more of these cities…”

“Unlike the Temple Control Bureau’s method of sealing off the Strange Temples, the Divine Sect adopts a more laissez-faire approach. Although it’s riskier, it’s more conducive to disciple training.”

“During the daytime, the Strange Que and Mysterious Fog of the Strange Temples are less active, allowing disciples to form teams to explore Strange Que and Mysterious Fog, attempting to fight with Temple Guardian Cursed Corpses and evil spirits to improve their combat experience and the like.”

Jiao Shaoqiu explained the situation to Li Che.

“Exploring the Strange Que of Strange Temples?” Li Che’s eyes narrowed.

Jiao Shaoqiu nodded, “The sect allows disciples to explore Strange Que, where they may obtain Divinity Crystals and a variety of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures… Rest assured, every team of disciples entering the Strange Que will be overseen by an Elder who will come to the rescue if any danger arises.”

“Generally, Outer Disciples enter Strange Temples of the Ten Cities and Nine Luminaries Level, while only Inner Sect Disciples are qualified to enter the Strange Que of Strange Temples of the Eight Extremes and Seven Elements.”

“As for the Strange Que of the Six Bureaus, that’s where the geniuses listed on the True Inheritor List train.”

Jiao Shaoqiu was patient, explaining to Li Che and Zhang Ya without any hint of impatience.

After all, Xi Xi was about to undergo cultivation at the Divine Sect soon, possibly encountering these dangers. Although it would be a valuable experience, the parents might not want to see their child suffer.

“In fact, not only the Qian Yuan Divine Sect, but most Divine Sects have integrated the cultivation system of their disciples into the suppression of Strange Temples, so that while training disciples, they can also suppress and weaken the evil spirits bred in the Strange Que by the divinity overflowing from the Strange Temples.”

Jiao Shaoqiu brought Li Che and his family to a large mansion within the city.

“I reside here in this city, Xi Xi will be cultivating in my courtyard for the time being.”

Jiao Shaoqiu said.

“Wow! Sister Yin Yin!”

As soon as she stepped into the courtyard, Xi Xi’s eyes lit up, and she slid out of Li Che’s arms like a loach, dashing towards the courtyard.

She threw herself at the radiant young girl in a goose-yellow long dress.

It was Sang Guanyin who had come to Dao City with them.

Sang Guanyin caught Xi Xi, her eyebrows curved into a sweet smile.

“Is this the little junior sister?”

Sang Guanyin said, holding Xi Xi, when a muffled voice came from inside a room in the courtyard.

The next moment, an extremely burly figure slowly walked out.

He was extraordinarily tall, almost non-human, with muscles bulging and twisting all over his body, sporting a buzz cut, his eyes bright like copper bells, and an overwhelming presence of Qi-Blood seemed to envelop him.

Xi Xi blinked her eyes, raised her tiny neck, and looked up at the imposing figure.

Seeing that her Master Niu Niu also possessed such a towering stature, Xi Xi felt not the slightest fear towards this hulking figure; rather, she felt a sense of familiarity!

“This is the second senior brother who is always mentioned by Master, cultivating within the Authentic Divine Sect in Dao City,” Sang Guanyin’s voice was clear and gentle.

“Oh! Second senior brother! Bian Bian!”

Xi Xi’s little mouth formed a surprised “o”.

She was naturally aware of the second senior brother that Nan Lihuo often mentioned, and she was curious about him. Now, seeing him for the first time,

he looked like a low-grade version of Master Niu Niu!

“Little junior sister, I’m not Bian Bian, I’m Bian Yuanlong.”

Hearing Xi Xi’s words, the burly Bian Yuanlong couldn’t help but frown and quickly corrected her.

“Okay then, senior brother Bian Bian!” Xi Xi nodded earnestly and respectfully.

Sang Guanyin couldn’t help but cover her mouth and giggle.

“I’ve been wanting to meet you, Little Stinky Xi. Master said you have an extraordinary talent, possibly even surpassing the eldest senior brother… Let me see.”

Bian Yuanlong scratched his head, unconcerned about Xi Xi’s innocent remarks.

He took Xi Xi from Sang Guanyin’s hands, and Xi Xi comfortably sat on his broad shoulder as if she were sitting on Master Niu Niu’s shoulder.

Bian Yuanlong paused, his face softening a bit, “You sure know how to pick a spot.”

“Hmm?!”

Suddenly, Bian Yuanlong’s eyes showed a hint of surprise.

“Little Stinky Xi, you… have constructed your Divine Foundation?”

How old was Xi Xi again?

Bian Yuanlong was astonished.

Wasn’t she only four years old?

Four years old… constructing Divine Foundation?

Ssss, the teacher did not deceive me!

“I should take you to meet Grandmaster, who is Master’s mentor and now an Inner Sect Elder… Back when Master was young, he gave Grandmaster quite the trouble, but since I arrived in Dao City, Grandmaster has helped me a lot.”

Bian Yuanlong’s palm-like hand ruffed Xi Xi’s head gently, “The Grandmaster will certainly be delighted to meet you.”

“But Little Stinky Xi, given your talent, you could try for a spot among the core true successors of the Sect Master. There’s still a chance.”

Sang Guanyin stood by, equally startled, her beautiful face showing a look of amazement.

Xi Xi had already broken through to Divine Foundation?

No wonder she was the standout among all the prodigies at the Temple God Resonance ceremony!

Xi Xi, sitting on Bian Yuanlong’s shoulder, swung her little legs, tilting her head slightly, “Senior brother Bian Bian, do you know about the Chu Long List?”

Bian Yuanlong replied with a hearty laugh, “Of course I know, it’s quite impressive…”

“Those people seemed to be shouting something like ‘Chu Long List third, Li Nuansi’, and I think they should’ve been calling for me.”
