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

Chapter 856: Chapter 270: Xi Xi, Who Lets Off Fireworks When Feeling Aggrieved, and the Boss’s Little Snack — Tea Eggs [Seeking Monthly Tickets]

Spring rain poured down, roaring as it cascaded from the sky.

Cold currents from the north swept across the mountain ranges, spreading out and dropping the temperature dramatically, delivering a biting chill of spring.

Beneath the White Jade Arch and the Qiankun plaque.

All was silent, the atmosphere oppressively still, carrying a suffocating aura of hostility that added an icy undertone, making the falling spring rain seem like a storm of arrows, heavy with an eerie murderous intent.

The elders of the Qian Yuan Divine Sect sat sternly on their Taishi chairs, their eyelids lowered.

All the Divine Children attempting to participate in the Sect Master’s direct disciple entrance test had tried to step through the portal of the Qiankun Small Cave Heaven. Unable to enter further, Jiao Shaoqiu, dressed in an ancient robe, spoke in a deep voice, halting further attempts to enter the Qiankun Small Cave Heaven.

Many of the Divine Children who failed to pass the Qiankun Small Cave Heaven’s threshold cried out bitterly in frustration.

Drenched by the rain, their bodies trembled with resentment. They clenched their fists in anger, yet could do nothing.

If they couldn’t even cross the entrance, it simply meant their talents were lacking. Simply put, they were weak.

The opportunity lay right in front of them, yet they lacked even the ability to stretch out their hand to grasp it.

Who else could they blame?

The Sect Master’s entrance test was naturally designed to select those with exceptional talent.

Still stranded under the White Jade Arch, the Divine Children steeped in grief and failure suddenly felt a wave of hostility and chilling cold.

They shivered involuntarily before sensing a weight pressing on their shoulders—the stern gaze of the elders from the Qian Yuan Divine Sect sweeping over them coldly.

Overwhelmed, their hair stood on end, and none dared linger any longer. One after another, they descended from the White Jade Arch, crossed the Daping, and returned to their respective camps.

In truth, the commanding aura of the elders wasn’t directed at these failed candidates, but at the two figures shrouded in black cloaks.

These two were tasked with escorting Divine Child Jin Taixui, a descendant of the Great Witch God’s bloodline.

They were experts from the Da Li Royal Court.

“Da Li Royal Court… How bold of them to send a descendant of the Great Witch God into Great Vista territory. Are they not afraid of leaving him here forever?”

With a sharp slam, Great Elder Fang Hanshu struck the ringed armrest of his Taishi chair, instantly evaporating the rainwater clinging to its surface.

His piercing gaze locked onto the two cloaked Da Li experts.

The overwhelming presence of a cultivator at the Divine Embryo Realm surged forth like a collapsing mountain, crashing down heavily.

At the same time.

Second Elder Zhao Fangzhou, a Martial Saint, and Third Elder Ding Zi, also a Divine Embryo cultivator, simultaneously unleashed their auras.

The Martial Saint Divine Embryo Level combat power from the Qian Yuan Divine Sect erupted like a wrathful thunderclap.

Within moments, the countless spring rains were entirely vaporized.

Whoosh—whoosh—whoosh—whoosh—

Gales erupted, air currents surged wildly!

Before the White Jade Arch, the atmosphere changed dramatically in an instant!

The elders from Divine Eagle Ridge also unleashed their auras one after another.

Li Che scanned his surroundings and, after a moment’s thought, released his own newly achieved Divine Minister aura.

His faint Divine Minister aura stood out glaringly amidst the overwhelming presences of the other elders… like a husky amidst a pack of wolves.

This drew a flurry of curious and amused glances.

Li Che remained calm, his black robe fluttering as his jet-black hair whipped around, maintaining his composure as a solemn elder.

The two Da Li Royal Court experts chuckled softly.

“We entered Great Vista legally, with official travel documents. Moreover, Da Li Royal Court and Great Vista have been at peace for ten years. Should you intend to reignite war and plunge border towns into chaos and suffering…”

“Then by all means, strike.”

One of the Da Li experts chuckled lightly.

“Taibai Sect Master, ranked fifth on the Great God List, seeks to recruit direct disciples. The Taibai God is known for teaching without discrimination. Even Prince Chi Kuang of the Da Li royal family was accepted into the Great God’s tutelage. So why should a descendant of the Great Witch God’s bloodline not be allowed?”

A gust blew aside their cloaks, revealing the true appearance of the two black-robed figures.

They were incredibly aged, their faces covered in white beards and painted with patterns and symbols.

Lv Taibai’s silver hair shimmered gracefully under the spring breeze, each strand distinct.

“Divine Embryo cultivators from Wushen Mountain?”

“Courageous indeed… No matter. Go back and tell your Great Witch God that I, Lv, will pay him a visit in due time.” Lv Taibai said indifferently.

The two elderly cultivators respectfully gestured with the Witch God Seal.

The cultivators of Wushen Mountain revered strength, and Lv Taibai’s prowess had already earned their acknowledgment.

Lv Taibai raised his hand, pressing down lightly.

Fang Hanshu, Zhao Fangzhou, and the other elders gradually withdrew their auras.

Gongshu Jingjun, Tang Xiejia, and other Divine Eagle Ridge elders also restrained their intimidation.

Li Che retracted his aura, which had stood out like a husky among wolves, his expression mild.

The spring breeze swirled, neither crude nor ashamed.

Despite the many odd and amused glances cast his way, some containing faint hints of suppressed laughter, he remained composed and unperturbed.

Half of his attention split away; his smile stayed tranquil as he observed Xi Xi’s current situation.

But as his gentle gaze turned to the two cultivators from Wushen Mountain, a barely noticeable chill surfaced.

After all…

Inside Qiankun Small Cave Heaven, the Great Witch God’s descendant, Jin Taixui, had cursed Xi Xi as worthless trash and even left behind sneaky traps to harm Xi Xi secretly.

Although he hadn’t attempted to kill her outright, his actions disrupted Xi Xi’s cultivation and talent progress.

How dare he bully Xi Xi!

Cold light flashed in Li Che’s eyes.

On the Daping before the Divine Sect Mountain Gate, restless murmurs gradually surged forth.

Everyone stared at the Qiankun Small Cave Heaven’s portal incessantly, but they couldn’t see inside or discern anything substantial.
