Chapter 280: My Daughter's First Step, Mother's Pride, and the Second Netherworld Meeting (Part 1)
A sword light shot up from the ground, soaring like a mighty roc spreading its wings, rising into the sky!
Piercing through the swirling thin clouds, countless dazzling golden rays of sunlight poured down, as radiant as lightning.
The entire Strange Temple was enveloped in a dazzling light.
All was silent.
Only Lu Tai Bai's voice echoed throughout the city.
"Congratulations!"
"Hail—!!!"
The sound rumbled, clearly audible to everyone, causing their hearts to tremble.
Many people looked up, witnessing the sword light soaring across the sky, enveloping two figures in its radiance.
Lu Tai Bai, with his silver hair cascading like a waterfall, wore a heartfelt smile, holding the hand of a little girl.
Countless sword auras raged around him, surging like a tempest, seemingly tearing through the heavens and carrying Lu Tai Bai and Xixi into the sky.
Lu Tai Bai, the Grand Master of the Heavenly Origin Divine Sect, was a peerless existence, ranked fifth on the Divine Ranking.
His final personal disciple had emerged.
Everyone's gaze turned to the little girl beside him.
At five years old, she was adorable, with two black eyes that spun like marbles, and a small black puppy tucked into her collar, also staring curiously at the outside world.
Many people felt a sense of bewilderment and stood in awe.
Though many had speculated that Li Nuan Xi might become Lu Tai Bai's personal disciple, when it actually happened and Xixi became his disciple...
Many still found it hard to accept.
After all, Xixi was so young, only five years old...
To surpass so many gifted children and become the personal disciple of a Divine Ranking cultivator!
At the Strange Temple.
Jin Taishui's mouth was dripping with blood, staring at Li Nuan Xi, who was enveloped in sword aura and rising into the sky.
He bit his lip, a hint of reluctance on his face.
But soon, this reluctance faded.
Because...
Through the records on the golden board, Xixi had already surpassed him by the time the first incense stick burned out.
She had reached the level he achieved during his second incense stick.
In fact, even without the issue of the Great Shaman's power being resented and targeted by the Heavenly Pangu Temple Deity, just comparing records, he still lost to Li Nuan Xi.
Not to mention, in the showdown of their ultimate abilities, he was also defeated.
In fact, there was no way they could pass the Temple Guarding Stage by themselves, the test was actually of their ultimate abilities.
And Xixi's ultimate ability was undoubtedly terrifying.
What was her ultimate ability?
Jin Taishui's nails almost bit into his flesh, his nails digging into his skin, feeling pain, confusion, and frustration.
All kinds of emotions surged within him.
"Defeated..."
"I lost, Great Shaman..."
Jin Taishui felt miserable.
Whoosh—
Two shadows landed swiftly on either side of Jin Taishui, the Divine Embryo Cultivators from Witch Mountain.
Their faces were grim, disbelief still lingering in their eyes.
They knew about the Junior Witch, Jin Taishui's ultimate ability... With the power of the Great Shaman, he should have been able to directly through the Temple Guarding Stage.
"Junior Witch... What happened?"
"Did the Heavenly Origin Divine Sect cheat?"
The other Divine Embryo Cultivator, who had almost been strangled by Zhao Fangzhou, asked through gritted teeth.
Jin Taishui shook his head, "It's the Strange Temple's issue... The Heavenly Origin Divine Sect didn't intervene."
"The Temple Guarding Stage, no one can be sure of the situation inside the Strange Temple, that's why it's called the Temple Guarding Stage. I borrowed the power of the Great Shaman, which clashed with the Strange Temple's Deity, provoking the intervention of a Four Imperial Strange Temple Deity..."
"So it's my lack of preparation..."
Jin Taishui was quite calm; he had lost, and that was that.
"Then, Junior Witch... That bet..."
The other Divine Embryo Cultivator's eyes suddenly changed, looking terrible.
Jin Taishui had lost, and that was that, but...
That bet was a big deal!
The bet was on the Essence, and if Jin Taishui reneged, he would be cut off from his cultivation path...
Jin Taishui's eyes narrowed, and a bitter expression appeared on his face.
...
...
In fact, the third Temple Guarding Stage had not yet ended.
Therefore, after Lu Tai Bai's simple announcement, he rose into the sky with Xixi.
Inside the Strange Temple, there was another young cultivator, Yun E, from the Yun Clan, with a Shrine Deity sealed within her body.
Unfortunately, this Shrine Deity didn't provide much help, even when Yun E activated its power in the Heavenly Pangu Strange Temple. Her own strength was simply too weak.
The Shrine Deity's power, though always aiding her in defeating the Temple Guarding Curse Corpse, did nothing more.
As the strange mist swirled around her after being sent out of the Strange Temple, Yun E didn't seem too disappointed.
She had expected this outcome.
But seeing Xixi, held by Lu Tai Bai, rising into the sky.
Yun E exhaled softly, raising her hand to touch her forehead, where the Shrine Deity's power rapidly gathered and formed a crystal, embedded in her fair skin.
"Congratulations, Xixi."
Yun E pursed her lips, revealing a sincere smile.
Initially, she had been under immense pressure, as many people had high expectations, hoping she could suppress Jin Taishui.
But Yun E knew her situation; her talent was actually quite ordinary, and she relied heavily on the Shrine Deity's power.
She managed to endure until the end of the Heart Nature Stage, thanks to the Shrine Deity's power and help.
The young girl, Xixi, had surpassed Jin Taisui in cultivation. She had successfully suppressed him and became a disciple of the Great Master Tai Bai. With this achievement, the pressure on her shoulders was lifted, and the scrutiny she once faced would no longer be as harsh.
"Thank you, Xixi."
Yun E's black hair fluttered in the wind as she excitedly waved to Xixi in the sky. A faint smile curved Xixi's lips.
A beauty that could captivate nations.
...
...
"Dang!"
The sound of an ancient bronze bell, like a mountain god, reverberated from the oldest temple within the Primordial Dao City.
The sound echoed throughout the entire city. Everyone became solemn, and after a moment of silence, they couldn't help but burst into laughter.
The various aristocratic families and major forces in the cultivation world were stirred and excited. Many cultivators cheered with joy.
What they cared about was Xixi suppressing Jin Taisui and overpowering the junior witch from the Great Shaman Mountain of the Great Li King's Court. She had excelled in the assessment and became the personal disciple of the Great Master Tai Bai, the new young master of the Primordial Divine Sect. In fact, they didn't care whether it was Xixi or Yun E who had suppressed Jin Taisui; they were just happy that someone had suppressed the divine child from the Great Li King's Court. It was a commendable and celebratory matter! After all, whether it was Xixi or Yun E, they were both divine children of the Great Jing.
Lu Taisui held Xixi's hand, and thousands of sword lights crisscrossed around them.
Xixi experienced the feeling of flying with a sword for the first time, and it was quite a unique experience. Her eyes widened with happiness.
The little dog in Xixi's arms started barking excitedly.
She had no interest in flying.
Lu Taisui, holding Xixi's hand, flew around the entire Primordial Dao City.
All the ordinary people and cultivators stuck their heads out, watching this scene.
Finally, they returned to the sky above the Heavenly Pavilion Strange Temple.
Lu Taisui, holding Xixi's hand, burst into laughter.
"My beloved Xixi, today you have become the young master of the Primordial Divine Sect. Everyone... any objections?"
The elders of the sect who were sitting in the chairs stood up one by one.
The Great Elder Fang Hanshu, the Second Elder Zhao Fangzhou, and the Third Elder Ding Zi, these three elders with divine embryo-level combat power, took the lead in standing up and bowing in salute.
"Congratulations to the Great Master on having such an outstanding disciple!"
"Congratulations to the Divine Sect on the establishment of the new young master, Li Nuanxi!"
"We have no objections."
The Fourth Elder Ji He Shan and the other elders also stood up and saluted in response.
"Congratulations to the new young master, Li Nuanxi!"
On the other side.
The elders of the Divine Eagle Ridge, including the outer sect elders, also stood up, saluted, and spoke solemnly.
"Congratulations to the new young master, Li Nuanxi!"
Boom!
The elders spoke simultaneously, each of them being first-rate experts in Primordial Dao City.
Instantly, powerful spiritual thoughts reverberated in the sky above the Strange Temple, as if stirring up a change in the weather.
A brilliant smile appeared on Li Che's face, and the curve of his lips was more radiant than the Blood Fire Bodhi Gatling.
The Yun, Zhou, and Zhong families, three thousand-year-old aristocratic families, spoke up, congratulating the new young master of the Divine Sect.
The head of the Su family, Su Daoling, had a gloomy expression, but in the end, he had to consider face and also congratulated the new young master of the Divine Sect.
Almost all the major forces in Primordial Dao City sent their congratulations.
The representatives of the three major forces in the Great Jingling Southern Dao—the Great Master's Mansion, the Temple Control Office, and the Heaven Gazing Office—also sent powerful spiritual thoughts of congratulations.
"The Great Master Yue Huang Long of the Great Jingling Southern Dao Primordial Dao City congratulates the Great Master Tai Bai on having such an outstanding disciple and the new young master!"
"The Great Master Hong Shi Fo of the Great Jingling Southern Dao Primordial Dao City Heaven Gazing Office congratulates the Great Master Tai Bai on having such an outstanding disciple and the new young master!"
"The Great Master Feng Zhiqi of the Great Jingling Southern Dao Primordial Dao City Temple Control Office congratulates the Great Master Tai Bai!"
...
Three figures appeared from three different directions, as if merging with the heavens and earth, emitting powerful heavenly will.
Lu Taisui nodded gently.
With a snap of his fingers, sword lights clanged resplendently.
"Li Nuanxi, my personal disciple and the new young master of the Divine Sect, I bestow upon you the Four Imperial Mid-Divine Armament 'Lotus of Hell Fire and Light Wheel' and the Four Imperial Mid-Divine Armament 'Lotus of Hell Yang God Sword'. I also bestow upon you a Five-Stage Upper Thousand Herbs Minor Rebirth Pill, ten Five-Stage Middle Thousand Herbs Minor Rebirth Pills, and a Five-Stage Middle Half-Saint Custom-Made Divine Wood Statue!"
"I also bestow upon you a Five-Elder Upper Divine Crystal and ten Five-Elder Middle Divine Crystals!"
"I also bestow..."
Lu Taisui spoke loudly, his voice resonating throughout Primordial Dao City.
His words were like thunder, reverberating in the human world, as if stirring up a great commotion.
Any one of these rewards was enough to drive a grandmaster crazy!
Many people's gazes towards Xixi became ardent.
As Lu Taisui's personal disciple and the new young master of the Divine Sect, it was only fitting to receive these rewards.
"The Primordial Divine Sect will hold a banquet for the new young master. The invitations are ready, and you are all welcome to come and have a drink. Let's celebrate the establishment of the new young master!"
Lu Taisui smiled gently, his gaze sweeping over the powerful cultivators.
Many cultivators clenched their teeth.
However, no one said anything. It was a reasonable celebration, and there was nothing wrong with the Primordial Divine Sect holding a banquet.
If the Divine Sect held a banquet and they didn't attend, it would be disrespectful. And if they went, they couldn't go empty-handed, right?
They should at least bring some gifts for the new young master.
Lu Taisui, holding Xixi's hand, descended with sword energy swirling around them.
The elders saluted.
Li Che also saluted, a smile blooming on his lips like the most radiant flower.
The current Li Che was truly happy, even more so than when he had defeated the Dragon Queen Consort, his greatest worry.
At this moment, Li Che suddenly understands the joy of being a parent.
It's like his own daughter scoring first place in the province-wide imperial examinations. The feeling is indescribably wonderful...
My family has a daughter who has grown up!
Xixi, the Great Empress, has taken a solid step!
Lu Taibai's gaze falls on Li Che, and a strange color flashes in his eyes.
Li Che pauses, clenches his fists, and his body immediately shoots out, arriving beside the carriage. He helps the completely stunned Zhang Ya down from the carriage.
Zhang Ya finally snaps out of her shock at Lu Taibai's announcement of Xixi becoming his personal disciple. Her mind returns, and she feels dazed and confused.
It's not until her husband picks her up and holds her in his arms that she reacts, wriggling like a caterpillar in Li Che's embrace and squealing.
"Husband—!"
"Ah ah ah—Husband! Our Xixi has succeeded!"
"Xixi has become the personal disciple of the sect leader!"
Zhang Ya's face turns red, and her excited blood surges.
She embraces Li Che's neck, overjoyed.
Her entire body twists and sways, and at this moment, she looks a bit like an enlarged version of Xixi.
Indeed, she is Xixi's mother.
Li Che smiles gently and indulgently, "Yes, our Xixi is the best!"
"The sect leader is waiting for us. Let's go see Xixi's future teacher."
Li Che's gentle words calm Zhang Ya down, and at this moment, she realizes that thousands of gazes are gathering here. There's admiration, laughter, and jealousy..."
Various gazes make Zhang Ya's already red face turn even redder from her neck, and she pouts, slowly turning even redder!
Thinking of how she was just wriggling like a giant caterpillar in Li Che's embrace, she feels like she's died in this Primordial Dao City.
Zhang Ya buries her head into Li Che's embrace like an ostrich.
Li Che brings Zhang Ya to the elders' seats.
"Madam Li, congratulations."
"Madam Li truly knows how to raise a daughter..."
...
The surrounding outer sect elders greet them warmly. Everyone is a disciple in the city, so they are all familiar with each other.
Li Che and Zhang Ya smile as they continuously greet the elders.
Finally, Li Che brings Zhang Ya before Lu Taibai. Xixi, who is well-behaved, holds Lu Taibai's hand and looks at Li Che and Zhang Ya with a smile.
"Daddy and Mommy!"
"Is Xixi good or not?!"
Xixi proudly raises her little head and belly.
"She's very good." Li Che praises.
"When we go back, Mommy will make you red-braised meat to eat!" Zhang Ya's face is still red, but she is also very happy at this moment.
