The Sect Leader Has Taken in a New Female Disciple-Chapter 145 - 96 I’m Still Her Dad! (6k)_4

After all, he still needed to go to the Task Hall to post tasks. If someone went out to find the related medicinal materials, someone had to be responsible, right?

And also the Exchange Hall and Danhua Peak, we need to keep a close eye on them as well.

I’ve heard that Senior Sister Shi Zhen is in seclusion. I wonder if she has a chance to cross that heavenly chasm and advance to the Nascent Soul stage?

And what’s going on with Master Gao Xuan of Golden Sun Peak?

What is his purpose hidden within the Taiqing Sect?

Zhou Qing couldn’t understand. However, this time when Gao Xuan and Uncle Tong Min went out, Master was able to leave immediately upon receiving the news. It’s evident that he still harbors suspicions towards Gao Xuan. This is more reassuring.

"We’re going to Lingyun Mansion this time, which will take at least half a year. Are you sure you don’t want to inform Junior Sister Lu? She seems really concerned about you."

On their way to the peak, Yan couldn’t help but remind.

Zhou Qing shook his head: "What’s there to say? She also needs to settle down and cultivate diligently for a while. Ever since she broke through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, she has been restless. This might actually be an opportunity."

Yan nodded in agreement, then suddenly grabbed Zhou Qing, saying seriously: "I used to think she liked you, but after observing several times, I feel like the way she looks at you is very peculiar, like... like she sees you as family. Yes, family. You wouldn’t happen to look like her late brother, would you?"

"I might as well be her father!" Zhou Qing said helplessly.

What do you mean by ’late’? That’s too unlucky, isn’t it?

Yan burst into laughter.

"Well, when we return, let her call you father. I guarantee that her five senior brothers will come after you before the incense burns out," Yan joked.

Zhou Qing shook his head, but what the Third Senior Brother said actually gave him some enlightenment. From the way she looked when they first met, to repeatedly playing matchmaker for him, and even the life-and-death crisis they encountered during that trip, saying such inexplicable words as "I won’t let you leave me behind again."

Thinking about it carefully, it seems to be true.

Forget it, I’ll ask her next time there’s a chance.

Not long after, they arrived at Mo Xingjian’s residence.

By then, Mo Xingjian had already set up a short-distance Teleportation Array for them.

"Your situation is quite special. Normally, breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage shouldn’t be that difficult with Earth Vein Foundation Establishment. Maybe it’s good to use a Nascent Soul Formation Pill to push it," Mo Xingjian said to Yan.

Then, he looked towards Zhou Qing, a bit apologetically.

Zhou Qing felt somewhat unwilling, but if he told Master that he had already achieved Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment and had the potential to gather the Three Flowers at the Crown in the future, how would Master and the entire sect react?

He knew very well that once this matter was known, the sect would pour all its resources into cultivating him.

However, that would also mean he would completely lose his freedom and become a bird in a cage.

Constantly being protected, never having to worry about anything. But would he still be himself if he grew up like that?

Having never experienced life-and-death crises, having never seen the dangers of the human heart, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to describe him as a flower in a greenhouse.

If he ever had the opportunity to step into the Divinity Transformation Realm in the future, what Realm could he understand living in such comfort?

Moreover, he had many secrets.

Zhou Qing opened his mouth, but ultimately swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

Suddenly, Mo Xingjian gave Yan a hard slap on the neck, directly confusing him.

"How long has it been since the Cyan Wood City affair? Why are you only remembering now?"

Mo Xingjian scolded: "Old Fourth is a Human Dao Foundation Establishment, and he’s accompanying you this time. If anything happens to him, don’t bother coming back."

Yan flinched, rubbing his neck that was burning with pain.

"Master, do you have a broken palm? Why does it hurt so much? It feels like it’s gone straight to my head."

"Instead of comforting us before our departure, let’s just leave!" Yan said, then pulled Zhou Qing into the Teleportation Array.

Then, Yan and Zhou Qing looked at Mo Xingjian, whose eyes had turned a little red, and bowed in unison.

"Master, take care!"

Mo Xingjian waved his hand slightly, and the Teleportation Array emitted a dazzling white light. When they looked again, the two had completely disappeared.

For a moment, the entire hall was silent.

"Go on, all of you, leaving this old man all alone—"

A sigh echoed through the silent hall, filled with endless loneliness and longing.
