Qiongxiao and Bixiao cried out in surprise and hurried to catch up.

The Three Xiao sisters continued to descend, eventually reaching the seabed.

On the ocean floor, they saw rolling yellow sand, winding and twisting for eighteen bends, forming a yellow earthen dragon.

Yunxiao beckoned, and the earthen dragon flew towards her, finally transforming into a yellow-brown disc that floated above Yunxiao's jade hand.

"The Nine Bends Yellow River Great Formation Disk?"

Qiongxiao stepped forward to examine it, exclaiming in pleasant surprise.

"Eldest Sister, you're truly amazing! You've found another treasure!"

Bixiao looked at Yunxiao with adoration, her voice filled with joy.

It's all true, it's all true. Senior Brother Li Xiao actually possesses such divine abilities, to be able to glimpse the Heavenly Secrets...

Yunxiao's heart churned like a thousand waves, utterly shocked.

"Eldest Sister, what are you spacing out about?"

Qiongxiao, noticing Yunxiao's strange expression, asked suspiciously.

"Oh, it's nothing!"

Yunxiao snapped back to reality and replied casually.

Since Senior Brother Li Xiao didn't want to reveal himself, she couldn't betray him.

Yunxiao decided to conceal the truth for the time being.

"Nothing?"

Qiongxiao was bewildered.

Yunxiao looked up towards the sky and suddenly transformed into a stream of light, speeding away into the distance.

"Eldest Sister, where are you going? Wait for us!"

Qiongxiao and Bixiao cried out and rushed to chase after Yunxiao.

The Three Xiao sisters flew on their clouds, eventually arriving on Golden Ao Island.

"Eldest Sister, didn't we just leave Golden Ao Island? Why are we back?"

Qiongxiao asked.

Yunxiao simply didn't answer, walking straight into Golden Ao Island.

Qiongxiao and Bixiao had no choice but to follow Yunxiao.

Upon reaching Golden Ao Island, Qiongxiao and Bixiao expected Yunxiao to seek out the Tongtian Cult Master. To their surprise, Yunxiao headed towards Fifth Peak.

"Eldest Sister, what are we doing at Fifth Peak?"

When they reached the foot of Fifth Peak, Bixiao couldn't hold back her curiosity and asked.

"To see Fifth Senior Brother!"

Yunxiao looked up at Fifth Peak, her beautiful eyes filled with a strange light.

"See Fifth Senior Brother? What's the point of seeing that good-for-nothing?"

Bixiao pouted in dissatisfaction.

"Shut up! Don't you dare call Fifth Senior Brother a good-for-nothing ever again!"

Yunxiao suddenly turned back to face Bixiao and reprimanded her.

"Ah? Eldest Sister, you..."

Bixiao was startled by Yunxiao's strong reaction and gasped in surprise.

Qiongxiao also looked at Yunxiao with shock.

Yunxiao sighed and looked at her two younger sisters, forcing a smile. "My dear sisters, from now on, you are not allowed to speak ill of Fifth Senior Brother. Remember, Fifth Senior Brother is not a good-for-nothing, but a peerless genius!"

"A peerless genius?"

Qiongxiao and Bixiao's faces twitched violently, and they looked at Yunxiao with strange expressions, as if they didn't recognize their elder sister with whom they had spent so much time.

They truly couldn't understand why Yunxiao would call Li Xiao a peerless genius!

A genius who idled around all day and slept soundly?

"Let's go, we're going to pay our respects to Fifth Senior Brother. Oh, and when we meet him, be respectful!"

Yunxiao instructed.

"Okay!"

Qiongxiao and Bixiao nodded.

Yunxiao finally relaxed and turned to walk up Fifth Peak.

Qiongxiao and Bixiao followed behind her.

"Second Sister, why do you think Eldest Sister suddenly called Fifth Senior Brother a peerless genius?"

Bixiao couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

"Who knows!"

Qiongxiao was also completely confused and bewildered.

In the past, their eldest sister had also thought Li Xiao was a good-for-nothing and couldn't be bothered with him. Yet today, Yunxiao had brought them to visit him proactively, and even spoke to Li Xiao with great respect. How could this not surprise and intrigue the two sisters?

"Second Sister, do you think our Eldest Sister has taken a liking to Fifth Senior Brother?"

Bixiao's bright eyes darted back and forth. She glanced up stealthily at Yunxiao and whispered to Qiongxiao.

"Ah? This..."

Qiongxiao was greatly alarmed.

Yunxiao turned and glared fiercely at Qiongxiao and Bixiao. The two sisters immediately lowered their heads, focusing on walking with their eyes on their noses and their noses on their hearts.

"I'll say it again, no disrespect when we meet Fifth Senior Brother later!"

Yunxiao was still uneasy and instructed them again.

"Oh!"

Qiongxiao and Bixiao obediently replied.

An elder sister is like a mother. Although Qiongxiao and Bixiao had mischievous personalities, they were still sufficiently respectful of Yunxiao.

Yunxiao turned and walked towards the outside of Fifth Peak.

As they walked, Qiongxiao looked at Bixiao and whispered, "Eldest Sister might really have taken a liking to Fifth Senior Brother..."

"Hiss, our Eldest Sister is peerless and elegant, how could she possibly fancy that good-for-nothing Fifth Senior Brother..."

Bixiao said indignantly, with a hint of anger.

"Shut up, if Eldest Sister hears you, we'll get scolded again!"

Qiongxiao quickly said.

The Three Xiao sisters walked slowly and finally arrived outside the Fifth Grotto.

Yunxiao tidied her robes, then respectfully cupped her hands towards the Fifth Grotto, "Is Fifth Senior Brother in his grotto? Yunxiao and her two younger sisters request an audience!"

Inside the Fifth Grotto, Li Xiao was fast asleep. He was startled awake by Yunxiao's voice and couldn't help but blink groggily, "Yunxiao? What does she want with me?"

Li Xiao was also puzzled. He then turned and walked outside.

Immediately, the Three Xiao sisters saw Li Xiao emerge, his eyes still heavy with sleep and his face looking tired.

"Alright, a good-for-nothing is indeed a good-for-nothing, only knows how to sleep and not strive for progress..."

Qiongxiao and Bixiao thought disdainfully upon seeing this.

Yunxiao, however, secretly thought upon seeing Li Xiao, "Senior Brother Li Xiao is deliberately concealing his abilities, possessing talent but not showing it off. This is the mark of a true master!"

"Fifth Senior Brother, I've brought my two younger sisters to visit you. May we come in?"

Yunxiao looked at Li Xiao with fervent admiration.

"Oh, come in, come in!"

Li Xiao said quickly.

Immediately, Li Xiao led the three women into the grotto.

They each took their seats.

"I wonder what brings the three junior sisters to visit so suddenly?"

Li Xiao asked, looking at the Three Xiao sisters, utterly bewildered.

Yunxiao stood up and suddenly bowed deeply to Li Xiao, saying, "Thank you, Fifth Senior Brother!"

"Ah? What's going on? Am I seeing things? Eldest Sister is bowing to this good-for-nothing?"

Qiongxiao and Bixiao exclaimed in shock.

Li Xiao was also completely confused. He looked at Yunxiao, bewildered, and quickly helped her up, asking, "Junior Sister Yunxiao, why are you doing this?"

"He's pretending, Fifth Senior Brother is really good at pretending!"

Yunxiao looked at Li Xiao, feeling somewhat helpless.

Li Xiao was clearly a peerless genius, so why was he acting like a good-for-nothing?

Yunxiao truly couldn't understand!

Chapter 5: Dingguang Immortal is going to betray the sect? Yunxiao is furious

[Huh? What's going on? Why is this Junior Sister Yunxiao looking at me like that? Could it be that I'm so handsome that I've completely captivated her?]

[Junior Sister Yunxiao is being so nice to me? She even came to my grotto on her own. Should I just pounce on her?]

The next moment, Yunxiao heard Li Xiao's thoughts again.

Yunxiao's pretty face blushed, and she looked at Li Xiao with a helpless expression, thinking, "Fifth Senior Brother is truly indecent..."
