The Dragon Transformation Pool’s surface shattered like a mirror.
Mist billowed, growing thicker and obscuring the pool in a hazy blur, hard to see clearly.
Only the pool of Spiritual Liquid could be seen, as if swept by a fierce wind, crashing against the walls, producing urgent and chaotic cracking sounds.
Drowning out all the sounds of begging within the stone chamber.
The clothes on the surface of the pool,
followed the violent waves, drifting powerlessly, swept away by the tides.
Floating and sinking, beyond control.
For a long time.
Until the tumultuous pool finally calmed from boiling to gentle, the billowing mist slowly settled.
The once full Dragon Transformation Pool waters visibly shallowed by three inches, its color faded slightly.
"Boom——"
A momentum like a rainbow suddenly erupted, shaking the pool’s water into ripples.
Spiritual Power solidified, permeating throughout!
Chen Ye’s already solid foundation advanced to another level!
The many dark injuries from the past, even the wounds from his youthful recklessness, were all cleansed by the Dragon Transformation Pool!
"Hmm? Are these memories from before..."
Some memory fragments suddenly emerged in Chen Ye’s mind, piercing his head with pain.
It seems,
in this life, during his youth, he was once noticed by someone from the Immortal Sect!
And this was the true reason he said farewell to his parents to seek the Dao.
Unfortunately, he later failed to be selected and was sent back by the Immortal Sect.
"No, something’s wrong."
Chen Ye’s heart jolted, he’s now a Fourth-Layer Foundation Establishment Cultivator, particularly skilled in Divine Soul, quickly sensing something amiss,
"These memories are clouded, surely there’s a problem. No wonder memories in this life are mostly vague. Originally thought it was due to crossing over, but it seems there’s manipulation... Judging by the technique, could it be a Golden Core True Man?"
"But the previous self was just a typical Loose Cultivator, why was his memory erased by a Golden Core True Man? If to keep a secret, then why not just kill?"
The more he thought, the stranger it seemed.
Could this Immortal Sect be a righteous Hidden Immortal Sect?
Seeing he didn’t meet the requirements, thus erased his memories with gentle means?
Thinking of this.
Chen Ye endured the headache, trying hard to recall.
"...Qi Kingdom? How could this so-called Immortal Sect be a sect of Qi Kingdom!?"
His heart was startled.
Qi Kingdom, is a completely Demon Path land, where’s any so-called Immortal Sect?
But if it’s a Demon Cultivator, why spare his life?
As Chen Ye’s thoughts surged, a warm, moist sensation suddenly came from his shoulder.
Followed by a sharp pain.
"Hiss——"
Chen Ye gasped, the thoughts he’d just gathered were instantly interrupted, dissipating without a trace.
He looked down.
Only to see the girl in his arms, like a kitten provoked yet powerless, biting his shoulder fiercely without letting go.
It seemed like venting, yet also like revenge.
But now she’s all weak, the bite not drawing blood but merely leaving a circle of wet tooth marks due to exhausted strength.
"Liar..."
Bai Susu released his shoulder, her usually imperious amber eyes familiar with swelling,
"Chen Ye... you’re such a big liar, you promised to observe... observe my injuries..."
At this moment.
The girl was too ashamed to lift her head, was she out of her mind? Actually letting Chen Ye check her wound.
The book often said, femme fatale, indeed there’s truth in it.
Ever since she fell for Chen Ye, she felt she had become much dumber!
Almost as dumb as Qing Jun!
Checking wounds,
was naturally one of Chen Ye’s excuses moments ago.
Chen Ye felt somewhat guilty, he reached out to gently tidy her soaking wet long hair, softly saying:
"My fault, I didn’t restrain my strength when breaking through just now."
"Didn’t restrain your strength?"
Bai Susu sniffled, lifting her tear-filled eyes to glare at him fiercely,
"Is that not restraining your strength? You... you simply wanted to kill me!"
"I want to expel you from the sect!"
While scolding, she sorrowfully buried her head in Chen Ye’s neck, her small hand weakly hammered his chest,
"Jerk... I want to go home, my back hurts... my legs hurt too..."
She’s petite.
And Chen Ye, who dual cultivates Body Cultivation, is extremely strong, it’s tough to grasp the heat for the first taste of cloud rain.
She indeed couldn’t withstand.
Chen Ye quickly tightened his arms, letting the warm pool water flood her waist, his palm pressed on her abdomen, transmitting gentle Wood Element Spiritual Power.
"Alright alright, going home, let’s go home. You used to stay at Cangli Courtyard, how about going back to take a look? It’s nice to stay at Cangli Courtyard for a few days too."
Chen Ye, while gently rubbing her, said in a warm voice.
"Hmph! Aren’t you afraid your disciples will be jealous?"
Bai Susu sniffled again, looking at him half-believingly, then added,
"Really?"
"Absolutely."
Chen Ye swore by heaven, sighed,
"They’ll accept you sooner or later. Besides, can’t just not introduce you worried they might be jealous, right?"
"That’s more like it."
Bai Susu huffed pridefully, then said quietly,
"But... still let’s not clarify it first. I finally managed to get along well with them."
Chen Ye shook his head: "Wouldn’t this be unfair to you? Since you’re my dao companion, why hide it? Those three girls, can’t just turn the sky."
"No, you must listen to me! Or was my time spent at Lisong Valley in vain? During that time, I worked really hard..."
The girl seriously thought for a moment, still shook her head.
Though she said that, seeing Chen Ye considering for her, her heart was still sweet.
Thinking about it,
She added: "Besides... also consider their feelings. In their eyes, the master always with them, suddenly having a closer person, surely they’d feel envious!"
