Cultivating Immortality, Starting from Childhood Sweethearts

“Our Guest Peak is a bit rudimentary, causing some discomfort for everyone. We hope you can forgive us.”

The outer sect disciple responsible for receiving guests at Guest Peak led them to a courtyard on Guest Peak.

“You're too kind. This residence is already excellent,” a leading elder said with a smile. “Your Profound Heaven Sect's hospitality is as thoughtful as ever.”

“Senior, you flatter us. It is a pleasure to have friends come from afar. This is what we should do. These are your jade tokens. If you need anything, please feel free to call me at any time.”

The outer sect disciple followed the procedure and handed the jade tokens to them.

“Thank you for your trouble.”

“Then, this junior will take his leave.”

The outer sect disciple bowed respectfully and then withdrew.

The elders of the Myriad Sword Sect, along with five disciples, settled into a large courtyard.

This courtyard had six or seven rooms, two stories high, much larger than Xu Ming's single-person courtyard.

Such courtyards were provided for the visiting delegations of sects.

The standards were the same for each sect. It wasn't the case that a stronger sect would get a better residence.

Single-person courtyards like Xu Ming's were basically provided for solitary individuals. Although independent courtyards were convenient, they occupied less space, and there were regulations regarding their layout and interior.

In short, the Profound Heaven Sect wanted every guest to feel fairly treated.

“That Xu Ming is really something.”

Sitting in the courtyard, Luan Ye, a disciple of the Myriad Sword Sect, exclaimed with admiration.

“He actually defeated Chen Yun and ranked second on the Azure Cloud List.” Liu Cheche, a woman, also felt it was incredible.

“He's still a martial artist, cultivating both body and technique to such an extent. I've never heard of it before. I really don't know how he did it.” Ding Zhen wiped the long sword in his hand. “I even want to spar with that Xu Ming.”

Ding Zhen seemed to think of something and glanced at Xu Xuenuo beside him: “Eh? Martial Aunt Xu, if I remember correctly, Martial Aunt Xu is also from Wudu, right? Do you know him?”

Elder Qi, the leader of the Myriad Sword Sect, smiled: “This Xu Ming comes from the Xu Residence in Wudu, Wu Kingdom. He is Xuenuo's younger brother. Do you think Xuenuo knows him or not?”

“Ah?”

“Xu Ming is Martial Aunt Xu's younger brother?”

“No wonder he's so powerful!”

“This magnificent and fierce sword energy is more than enough to enter the Myriad Sword Sect. Why didn't this Brother Xu join the Myriad Sword Sect?”

Everyone looked at Xu Xuenuo with curiosity.

Xu Xuenuo said coldly: “When he was young, his spiritual veins were severed, and he couldn't cultivate, so he took the path of a martial artist. As for how he can cultivate now, I don't know.”

“I see…” Everyone suddenly understood.

“Then Martial Aunt Xu's younger brother must have obtained a considerable opportunity.”

“Elder Qi, why don't we invite this Brother Xu to join the Myriad Sword Sect?”

Elder Qi smiled and stroked his beard: “This kind of thing depends on the person's willingness.”

Just as everyone was chatting, Xu Xuenuo, holding her long sword, walked out of the courtyard.

Everyone looked at Xu Xuenuo's back, feeling a bit puzzled.

Ding Zhen: “Why do I feel that Martial Aunt Xu has some issues with her younger brother?”

Luan Ye shook his head: “I don't know. Maybe their sibling relationship isn't good.”

Liu Cheche: “I always feel that something happened between Martial Aunt Xu and her younger brother. In the future, we should mention her younger brother less in front of her.”

After Xu Xuenuo left, she didn't know what her fellow disciples were saying behind her back.

However, in Xu Xuenuo's heart, she didn't care what they said.

Xu Xuenuo walked through the mountains and forests of Guest Peak, still thinking about the fact that she and Xu Ming were not biological siblings.

Originally, she and Xu Ming were half-siblings, sharing half of their blood relationship.

But now, they don't even share the same father anymore.

Who exactly… is the illegitimate child?

Soon, Xu Xuenuo sighed again.

Actually, it didn't matter who was the illegitimate child.

It's just that she had already been removed from the Xu Residence and had nothing to do with it anymore. Now, Xu Ming had no blood relationship with her at all.

Then what exactly… are she and he?

If it were before, if Xu Ming appeared here, she would have already gone to see him.

But now, even if Xu Ming and Xu Xuenuo were in the same place, Xu Xuenuo didn't dare to meet him. Xu Xuenuo didn't know how to face him…

Xu Xuenuo wanted to drink alcohol.

But when Xu Xuenuo took out the wine gourd from her waist, she found that there wasn't a single drop of wine left.

Xu Xuenuo slung the wine gourd around her waist and walked straight down the mountain to buy wine!

“This is Xuan Yue City? It's quite lively.”

In Xuan Yue City, a woman in a black dress and a woman in a white dress walked together.

Both women had outstanding appearances, especially the woman in the black dress, who attracted the attention of most people.

Behind the two women, followed a team of maids and servants.

“That's right. The size of this Xuan Yue City is equivalent to half of Zhuang Kingdom.” Jiang Ruyan, the city lord of Falling Star City, said to the beautiful girl beside her, “It's getting late. How about we find an inn to rest for a while and enter the Profound Heaven Sect tomorrow?”

Mo Zhu'er nodded: “Okay.”

Jiang Ruyan found an inn to stay in. She and Mo Zhu'er slept in the same room.

Mo Zhu'er lay sideways on the couch, her exquisite curves fully visible.

Jiang Ruyan looked at Mo Zhu'er like a lovesick fool, her gaze constantly moving over her body.

“Can you not look at me with that kind of lewd gaze?” Mo Zhu'er glared at Jiang Ruyan.

“What are you saying~” Jiang Ruyan sat on the edge of Mo Zhu'er's bed, reaching out to touch Mo Zhu'er's smooth and boundless long legs, “The gazes of those stinky men looking at you are lewd, but the gaze of this elder sister looking at you is appreciation~ There are very few people who can be appreciated by this elder sister.”

“Get lost.” Mo Zhu'er slapped Jiang Ruyan's hand down.

“So cold, but this elder sister likes it~” Jiang Ruyan hooked Mo Zhu'er's chin, teasing, “Speaking of which, why did you think of coming to the Profound Heaven Sect with me? Are you really that curious about that Qin Qingwan? You're so interested in other women, this elder sister is still going to be jealous~”

The corners of Mo Zhu'er's mouth curled up: “I wasn't curious about that Qin Qingwan before, but now, I really want to meet her.”

Jiang Ruyan tilted her head: “Why?”

Mo Zhu'er stood up slightly, approaching like a fox: “Don't easily ask a girl 'why'. Girls all have secrets.”

“I just like exploring girls' secrets.” As she said that, Jiang Ruyan was about to play around with Mo Zhu'er.

But just then, the door knocked, and a letter was slipped in through the crack.
