“Did anything interesting happen when Senior Brother went out for his training?”

“That, I went to change clothes, nothing interesting, killed tens of thousands.”

Li Ping’an laughed and said:

“Junior Sister, you should change into a dress too, father will be inviting friends from within the sect later.

I guess it’ll be Yun Chenzi, Yansheng and other Peak Masters and elders.

I’m going to change into something more formal too.”

Ningning Mu laughed and said, “I brought a change with me, don’t worry, Senior Brother.

Let’s see who can change faster.”

Li Ping’an turned to go to his bedroom, and Ningning Mu also went to her own exclusive lodging.

Once both of them had left the main hall of the cave dwelling, Wen Ling shyly peeked her head from behind the screen.

She rolled her eyes at Li Ping’an’s bedroom, murmuring weakly to herself, “This guy is so crafty, surely it’s all to deceive young girls!”

Suddenly, she heard a voice transmission, Li Ping’an’s voice rang in Wen Ling’s ears:

“Wen Ling.”

“Yes!

Patriarch!”

“Go prepare some food ingredients, make it as lavish as possible.”

“Alright, Patriarch!”

Wen Ling hopped out from behind the screen, picked up a bamboo basket, and bounded away from the cave dwelling.

Li Ping’an slightly raised an eyebrow.

Wen Ling had also stepped into the Void Refinement Realm after not seeing her for three years.

That was not bad, either.

Li Ping’an hummed a small tune, a few thoughts crossing his mind, wondering if he should create some romance for his Junior Sister, like arranging a heart-shaped pattern of Spirit Stones in the room or adding some immortal flowers and Spirit Grass.

But upon rethinking, Li Ping’an thought:

‘So-called romance, a lot of it is just me feeling like I’ve done something for her.

There’s no need to be so deliberate.

It’s better to focus on accompanying her for a few days, especially since my Dao Realm cultivation is progressing very slowly anyways.’

Having made up his mind, Li Ping’an continued to hum the popular tune from his hometown and took out a few gifts he had chosen for Ningning Mu before returning, all of them items useful for cultivation.

Generally speaking, the Western Continent was quite barren, nothing rare to be found.

It was purely a gesture of goodwill.

Before long, Li Ping’an stepped out of the bedroom dressed in a sky-blue robe with loose sleeves.

Ningning Mu stood with her hands clasped behind her back, her efficiency in changing clothes quite impressive.

She had changed into a robe of fine silk made for her by a True Immortal, a gorgeous fairy dress.

This light purple fairy dress had no long sleeves, and the skirt only reached just above her knees, boldly displaying her fair arms and delicate legs.

With its waistband tightly fastened, it accentuated her full moon-like curves and supple waist, fully exhibiting a woman’s grace and charm.

Ningning Mu’s face was lightly made up, losing two parts of her ethereal beauty but gaining three parts of alluring charm.

‘A man dies for the one who holds his heart, a woman dresses for the one who pleases her eyes.’

Li Ping’an had always heard this saying, but now he finally understood what it meant.

Suddenly, Li Ping’an said, “Ningning, do you want me to visit your family after I become an immortal or before that?”

“Huh?”

Ningning Mu was caught off guard by his question, and her mind became flustered:

“That, I’ll listen to you, you decide.”

“Then let’s set it for two years from now,” Li Ping’an smiled and said, “we cultivate in the mountains while your parents roam the world upholding justice.

It’s good to visit them sooner rather than later.”

“Yes!”

Ningning Mu smiled joyfully and pointed at the recliner, saying, “Senior Brother, come and rest.

You must be tired from eliminating demons outside.

I’ll help you relax your muscles and bones!”

“Let’s not rest just yet,” Li Ping’an said with a smile, “Let’s set up this place first.

Father will be hosting dinner for guests later.

I originally wanted to talk to father about the interesting experiences outside, but with all the elders coming…

We’ll talk afterwards.”

Ningning Mu eagerly said, “I want to hear it too!”

“Of course, you’ll hear it too, together, together.

I’m not in a hurry to cultivate these few days; playing with you is what matters,” Li Ping’an said.

…

Meanwhile.

In the southwest corner of the East Continent, above the Sky Ruins, within a celestial palace hidden in a great array.

A beam of immortal light broke through the heavens, and an elderly man in a vermilion robe stepped out, walking straight into the immortal palace.

Inside the palace, ten old men and seven old women sat in a circle, apparently all cultivating.

The old man known as Tianli heaved a sigh, his face showing a hint of weariness, and took his place.

A beam of immortal light enveloped Tianli, and he immediately heard several greetings from his Dao companions.

“How did things go with the Western Continent?”

“Tianli, have you cleared up the matter with the human sacrifice?”

“Hmm,” Tianli meditated with closed eyes, his voice entering the ears of the other elders.

They were in a peculiar state of cultivation, able to communicate with each other without disturbing their own enlightenment of the Great Dao.

If any urgent matters arose, they could immediately emerge from their meditative state.

Tianli said, “It was a few maids from the Nuwa Palace, acting on orders.

Behind them is the Left Chief Attendant.”

“I knew it was her!”

“Alas, she insists on saying that the Southern Continent is the foundation of the Human Race.

Aren’t both the East and Southern Continents lands of our Human Race?”

“Do you need me as the Alliance Hierarch to issue a warning to remind our East Alliance?”

“How would you issue such a warning?” grumbled Tianli, “To tell everyone to stay away from the Nuwa Palace directly?

That wouldn’t be right; the Nuwa Palace is, after all, supposed to be our East Alliance’s superior.”

“The maids of Nuwa Palace were originally meant to serve the Holy Mother, but now they are interfering with our Human Race affairs.”

“Alas, we can’t really say that; the maids of Nuwa Palace also represent the Holy Mother’s attitude.”

“What attitude can they represent of the Holy Mother?

She has been gone for six thousand years, and we still have to put up with their nonsense every day.

Let’s not forget, amongst these maids of the Holy Mother, only half are from our Human Race, the other half come from the ancient Hundred Clans, with ill intentions at heart!”

“Enough,” sighed Tianli, “I’ve already warned the Left Chief Attendant.

Let’s drop the matter now.”

“How did you warn her?”

“I sent the heads of six Heavenly Immortals, seven True Immortals, nineteen Yuan Immortals involved in the human sacrifice, along with the heads of the Demon Race who collaborated with them, directly to the Left Chief Attendant.”
