Against the wall was a single bed, with a nightstand made from a painted oil drum. At the foot of the bed, by the window, was a small writing desk. The whole space felt cramped, and even more so with...Gu Jian observed Lian Yi's demeanor, which was both amiable and polite. Most importantly, Gu Jian had a request from Yun Tianzong, so he immediately sent a message using a communication jade slip to the sect, explaining Bai Lian Yi's request. It seemed that the sect highly valued this talisman inheritance, so they instructed Gu Jian to complete the apprenticeship task and then bring Lian Yi back to Yun Tianzong together.

"Daoist Bai, the sect just replied to me. Please follow me back to Yuntengzong. Master Fufeng will have a detailed discussion with you. What do you think"

Gu Jian expressed the meaning of the sect to Lian Ri.

"That's naturally even better, Bai would be willing to go there."

Rill smiled and thanked him.

"Then please wait a moment, White Daoist friend. Today is the last day for accepting disciples. Shortly, we will be taking the newly accepted disciples back to the sect. White Daoist friend, you can follow us to Yuntai Sect at that time."

Gu Jian also expressed it very clearly, that ripples are not a member of Yun Tian Zong now, so they won't invite her onto the flying ship.

Ripples understood the other party's implied meaning and cupped his hands together in greeting, saying:

That's right.

Then he stepped aside and waited for Yunteng Sect to finish accepting disciples.

The original body had just left the demon clan territory in its previous life, it was curious and wandered aimlessly. It happened to encounter Lian Xiye and his group who were completing their sect mission.

At that time, they were trapped in a village by an evil cultivator's illusion array. Even though it was evening and they were with their fellow disciples, none of them realized they were trapped. Instead, they believed the mission was going smoothly, so they fell deeper into the illusion array.

But the original was a phantom celestial fox, capable of ignoring any illusion. She saw through the evil cultivator's disguise at once, killed him, and then rescued Lian Xiye and his party from the illusionary formation.

By this point, the two parties had established contact. Lian Xiye saw through [Original Character's] true nature as being simple and possessing considerable skill. It seemed like a young descendant who had been trained by a prominent family. Moreover, [Original Character] had saved their lives, so he took the initiative to invite them to travel with his group, promising to give [Original Character] half of the rewards from their missions as a token of gratitude.

Actually, the original body didn't care about those Spirit Stones or Spirit Herbs at all. Her father had prepared a lot for her before she left. She was just curious about the human race and wanted to learn more about them, as well as complete her own cultivation tasks.

Moreover, she believed she had saved these people's lives. Naturally, they wouldn't dare to repay kindness with resentment; otherwise, it would be detrimental to them and their sect if word got out. After careful consideration, they accepted Lian Xi Ye's invitation.

Next comes the process of the original body's strategy for winning over Lian Xi Ye. The method is quite clichéd, nothing more than showing deference and attentiveness, putting oneself in harm's way to protect the original body, and giving the original body everything within one's capabilities.

Gradually, the original self let go of their guard and grew closer to Lian Xiye. They even helped them complete several high-difficulty missions, earning a lot of sect points and rewards, making Lian Xiye the most popular figure in the sect for a time.

After returning to the sect, Lian Ye used the rewards overnight to start a closed-door training session, raising his cultivation level to the Nascent Soul Stage. Then, he casually took on a mission and left the sect to search for his original self.

Since Yuan Shen had been spending time with Lian Xi Ye, feelings of affection had grown between them. So when the latter consolidated his cultivation and sought her out later, she didn't overthink it and readily agreed to team up with him to explore and gather resources.

After being together for over two hundred years, even through the night, they finally figured out each other's true identities. Just as his cultivation level reached the stage of becoming a god under the accumulation of various resources, he chose to advance to the divine realm outside and asked his original body, who was also at the stage of becoming a god, to protect him.

When the cultivation levels of one human and one demon were equal, Lian Ye finally showed her fangs and began to scheme against the original body step by step, making the original body a sinner in the demon clan.

These are all things that Ripples saw from her original memories after she began her cultivation. In fact, in Ripples' eyes, even before the night of the eve, Xi Ye did indeed have a good feeling for the original owner, but his so-called fondness was because the original owner could bring him benefits and satisfy his vanity.

At the beginning, he treated the original body clumsily and with a hint of awkwardness in the evening. It was indeed from the heart, but as time went on, he received more and more from the original body, nurturing his desires until he became increasingly greedy.

And Heaven favored Lian Xiye, believing that everything he received was a resource to aid his cultivation. So unconsciously, Heaven skewed Lian Xiye's dao heart, leading to irreversible mistakes in the end.

This time, Ripples chose not to meet with Lianxi Ye. She wanted to see what kind of person he would grow into this time.

Actually, when she first went to Yuchuan City, there were several times she almost ran into Lian Xiye, but she cleverly avoided him each time. She understood that this was Heaven's way of subtly making her Lian Xiye's lucky charm, but after several failed attempts, Heaven stopped orchestrating their encounters. This, conversely, heightened her vigilance, making her feel like the other party was brewing a big move.

As a former Mahayana ancestor, she had touched the rules of heaven and earth. Therefore, she felt that if she couldn't become Lian Yexi's Qiyun son like a lucky charm, she would most likely become a whetstone on his path to growth.

Since she already had such a guess, she naturally wanted to find herself an identity that would be convenient for her to do things, and becoming a guest elder of the Yunteng sect was undoubtedly the most suitable one.

After entering the Yuntai Sect, her knowledge of the Four Arts finally had a source. When she returned to the demon clan, she taught these things to her people, so it wouldn't be too out of place. Moreover, as a fellow disciple and senior of the chosen one of Qi Yun, she naturally possessed an advantage over Lian Xiye, making it easier for her to deplete the other party's luck.

She could have used someone else's hand to pressure Lian Yexi, so she wouldn't have to make a direct move herself, avoiding exposure and the risk of the mission failing. That's why she orchestrated ripples joining the Yun Tianzong.

After receiving the message from Gu Jian, Yun Tianzong had already begun to investigate Bai Lianyi's identity and background. After all, before accepting someone into the sect, it was necessary to thoroughly investigate them to avoid bringing trouble to the sect.

Although the Yaozu often speak with their fists, there are also intelligent ones, especially the ancestors of the Fox Clan. They had long considered the matter of family members going out to hone their skills. Therefore, they developed a small Xianmen family on human territory called the Bai Family.

This Bai family is populated by humans, and every few hundred years, a batch of outstanding disciple identity jade plaques appears in the clan. These identity jade plaques become the cover identities for the fox clan when they walk outside.

Only the successive heads of the Bai family knew this secret, but the headmaster told the clan members that these people were outstanding disciples of a hermit family. They used the Bai family's name to practice outside, just to avoid revealing their family's location.

But the family didn't borrow this identity for nothing. Every hundred years, they would receive a batch of resources from their ancestors to cultivate, and because of this, the Bai family had cultivated a Nascent Soul cultivator, gaining a place in Lei Jia City and developing quite smoothly.

This time, Lian Yi used the identity provided by the Bai family of the human race. Therefore, when Yun Tianzong investigated information about Bai Lian Yi, they got very comprehensive results and found no problems. She was considered a cultivator supported by the Bai family themselves. Because she had been stuck at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage for a long time, she chose to join Yun Tianzong.

If the Bai family could produce another cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage, they would become a middling family in an instant. That way, in Lei Jia City, they could have access to more resources.e word, they blurted out all the details in one go."How did you know"The sergeant's heart skipped a beat, but he feigned calmness and asked."Today, when Captain Shawn went out, a team member drove our...
