"It's a pity. I didn't know much about Jade Purity Peak before, and I don't know much about where these people are either." Bai Lan said lightly, "Perhaps they were too weak and were swallowed by some Demon Beast while they were training outside. It's true that disciples follow their masters. One by one, they disappeared without a trace."

Not to mention, Bai Lan secretly wanted to instruct Gongsun Lian to kill all three of them except Le Qing, because the Le family member was still holding a lot of her Spirit Stone.

"In that case, as the Peak Master of Jade Purity Peak, do you currently have any plans to take on disciples?" True Lord Lingxiao smiled and shook his head, no longer asking any further questions, but simply handed over a stack of names.

Bai Lan remained silent. This True Lord Lingxiao was either giving her something or on his way to give her something.

He was like an NPC giving out breakthrough rewards. When Bai Lan was in the Bai Lan Qi Refining stage, True Lord Lingxiao, with the mindset of nurturing a promising talent, gave her a Cultivation Method box.

When Bai Lan Foundation Establishment, he gave her Storage Bag on behalf of the Peak Master. After Bai Lan reached the Core Formation stage, he began to send her things on behalf of the sect.

After taking a quick look at the roster handed over by True Lord Lingxiao, it seemed to be a group of people with relatively good aptitude among the Qi Refining stage cultivators in the sect's grand competition not long ago. These were the top ten in the competition, and True Lord Lingxiao had selected them for special attention.

No wonder I was chosen by True Lord Lingxiao. It turns out that he had been observing the best among the younger generation of disciples from the beginning and secretly supporting the outstanding ones.

"Taking on apprentices..." Bai Lan's gaze swept across the roster, landing on a familiar name. He paused, then asked, " Meng Xue'er?"

Is this the Xue'er from her memory?

That can't be right! Isn't Xue'er a powerful woman backed by Black Guard? Hei Black Guard's backing is the Carefree Sect, so Xue'er should be a member of the Carefree Sect, right?

Why are people from the Carefree Sect here at the Azure Origin Sect? Wait, Xue'er, could it be that Long Aotian has come too?

"Oh? You're interested in her? This girl's aptitude is indeed quite good. Her cultivation has reached the Great Perfection of the Qi Refining stage, and she has a single Spirit Root. She's ranked fifth in this outer sect competition." True Lord Lingxiao's expression suddenly turned strange. He stroked his beard and frowned. "You want to take her as your disciple? Other disciples are fine, but Xue'er's identity... I'm afraid she's not willing to accept an ordinary Core Formation cultivator as her master."

With the backing of the patriarch of the Carefree Sect, Xue'er naturally looked down on ordinary Core Formation cultivators.

But that's not important. What's important is that Bai Lan wants to know Xue'er's purpose in coming to the Azure Origin Sect, as well as Long Aotian's current location.

"Senior Brother Ling Xiao, I want to see her." Bai Lan looked at True Lord Lingxiao.

"Sigh." True Lord Lingxiao sighed, assuming that he valued Meng Xue'er, and began to earnestly advise her, "To be honest, Junior Sister Bai, it's not that your senior brother doesn't agree, but this disciple already has a Nascent Soul Great Expert teaching her. Her purpose in coming to the Azure Origin Sect is nothing more than to have fun. Even if you are a genius that comes along once in ten thousand years, I'm afraid you are not suitable to be her master."

"I know all of this, but you've misunderstood, Senior Brother. Xue'er is my friend. I just want to meet her." Bai Lan shook her head and smiled, she was self-aware.

If I were to accept Xue'er as my disciple with Long Aotian's face, she might agree. But if I were to accept her as my disciple with my own face, I'd be lucky if Xue'er didn't fall into demonic possession on the spot.

"I see, hahaha, I was just being paranoid." True Lord Lingxiao chuckled awkwardly, then summoned a low-ranking disciple to lead the way for Bai Lan: "If Junior Sister Bai has any further thoughts about taking on disciples in the future, feel free to come and find your senior brother. No one in the Azure Origin Sect knows the disciples better than me!"

"Don't worry, senior brother, I've got it." Bai Lan nodded with a smile.

A false genius, a cultivator with Single Spiritual Root.

True geniuses go straight for the harem of the Child of Destiny.

In the cultivation world, there are very few people who can rival the Child of Destiny, and most of them are villains. Even those who are Single Spiritual Root cultivators are nothing more than pawns abandoned under the rules of Heavenly Dao.

Instead of searching for a needle in a haystack, let's head straight for this harem that no one has recruited yet, and vow to collect their souls in one go. Those carefully selected by the Child of Destiny are generally quite talented.

As long as it's not a naive and innocent girl like Xue'er whose mind is full of Long Aotian, Bai Lan is willing to use a Buddhist-like attitude to guide and enlighten her.

"Elder, this is Meng Xue'er's residence." The disciple who led the way looked at Bai Lan and spoke respectfully.

Even when Xue'er, backed by Nascent Soul Great Expert, exchanges and learns with other sects, her status is that of inner disciple. She lives in a private room in cave abode and uses high-level Spirit Gathering Formation.

Even so, with her Single Spiritual Root aptitude, her cultivation level still hasn't broken through to the Foundation Establishment. Could it be that Long Aotian has become her inner demon? If that's the case, her temperament is far too poor. No wonder she could only become part of Long Aotian's harem in the early stages of the story, and then disappear without a trace later on.

"Alright, you may leave now. I have something to discuss with my junior sister Xue'er." After saying this, Bai Lan pulled out the Elder Fu from inside the Void Stone.

" Elder Fu, check if there's any trace of Long Aotian around here."

Elder Fu was instructing his disciples in the Void Stone, was pulled out by Bai Lan's large hand. He angrily probed out his Divine Sense and scanned the surroundings. Then he said irritably, "How could Long Aotian be here? Wasn't he taken away by Xue'er... Wait, how did Xue'er end up in the Azure Origin Sect?"

As soon as Elder Fu finished speaking, Xue'er, dressed in white, walked out of the cave abode.

"Bai, Bai Lan? How come you..." Xue'er looked surprised when she saw Bai Lan, but upon closer inspection, she even saw a hint of joy.

Bai Lan stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "Where is Long Aotian now? Tell me his whereabouts."

"... He escaped from the Myriad Treasures Pavilion while I wasn't paying attention, and my men haven't been able to find him." Xue'er said in a low voice.
