Oh my god, that's terrible!

My master, that straight man of three thousand years, actually got intimate with other women.

Tang Ruowei stood on the Flying Sword Flight aimlessly, her mind in turmoil.

Recalling what she had secretly witnessed Su Xiangxue and Bai Qiuran doing while standing outside the door, the girl felt shy and blushed.

What are you doing?

Suddenly, someone reached out and patted her face from behind. Tang Ruowei came back to her senses and heard Bai Qiuran standing behind her saying, "If you're going to use your sword, then use it properly. What if you bump into someone instead of looking ahead?"

Tang Ruowei was about to retort, asking where someone could come from in the sky thousands of miles away, but as soon as she looked up, she saw a Cultivators riding a large bird suddenly emerge from the clouds and fly towards them.

She quickly turned around, somewhat flustered. At the critical moment, Bai Qiuran reached out to help her stabilize her Flying Sword, using his True Qi to stir up the atmosphere in the space, creating a Hurricane that forcibly separated the Cultivators from their flight path.

The two passed each other quickly. Tang Ruowei turned her head and glanced at the other person with lingering fear, while the Cultivators also turned his head, probably quite frightened as well.

What are you doing, huh?

Bai Qiuran pinched Tang Ruowei's head and shook it.

"You can get distracted even when you're flying on a sword, and more importantly, you can still carry me this far and this high even when you're distracted... Should I praise you or scold you?"

Tang Ruowei lowered her head shyly, remaining silent.

Bai Qiuran suddenly asked, "You... saw it, didn't you?"

Tang Ruowei's True Essence faltered, and the Flying Sword plummeted downwards for dozens of meters, startling Bai Qiuran.

The girl finally managed to regain control of the Flying Sword in a flurry of activity, then said awkwardly, "What are you saying, Master? Ruowei doesn't understand..."

"I was talking about what happened between Xiangxue and me in the Study Room. You saw it from outside the door, didn't you?"

Bai Qiuran and said, "Don't lie. With your meager tricks, as long as you get close, I can tell without any special senses."

"Huan Xiangxue... when did you start calling me so intimately..."

Tang Ruowei didn't answer Bai Qiuran, but instead muttered to herself.

Bai Qiuran silent for a long time before suddenly Human Path: "Ruowei, what do you think about me helping you find a mistress someday?"

This time, Tang Ruowei could no longer hold onto her Flying Sword. Amidst their screams, the Kun Ling Sword fell from the clouds, and Bai Qiuran quickly caught the flustered Tang Ruowei, bringing her to a hard landing on the ground.

After climbing out of the large pit, which was more than two miles in diameter, Bai Qiuran scolded the girl, "Forget it, don't fly anymore. I'll walk you back."

After returning to the Azure Nether Sword Sect, Bai Qiuran made a detour to Jueyunzi on the Main Peak, showing himself in front of him and the Elder to prove that he had not been abducted by the Demoness from the Hehuan Sect, and also gave Jueyunzi.

He also gave Jueyunzi two books of the Demon Emperor's ultimate techniques, as well as a celestial sword forged from the bones of the First Ancestor Demon Emperor, asking them to improve the Formation and perfect the mountain-protecting formation of the Azure Nether Sword Sect Mountain Protection Array.

Then, he took Tang Ruowei back to Seven Star Peak and stayed home, beginning a period of being a recluse.

During this time, under the guidance of Wisdom Immortal, he compiled some potentially useful Divine Ability from the era of Earth Immortal, and then went out to replenish supplies.

His actions were noticed by Tang Ruowei, who lived with him. When the girl asked Bai Qiuran was going to go out again in a while, Bai Qiuran gave an affirmative answer.

Tang Ruowei didn't say anything. She knew Bai Qiuran busy with her own breakthrough plan, so her reaction was just a little dejected.

Seeing her like this, Bai Qiuran called her over.

"Come here, Ruowei, your master will show you a treasure."

What is that?

Tang Ruowei approached suspiciously, only to find that Bai Qiuran had pulled a soft ruler out of his Storage Bag.

"This is one of the Immortal Treasures I just crafted in the Demon Realm. Don't you like Surveying and Mapping? This is for you."

Bai Qiuran handed the measuring tape to Tang Ruowei, then turned his head away, flipping through his bookshelf as he said, "It can stretch freely, and the markings are extremely precise. There's basically no length in the world it can't measure. Of course, you can also use it as a weapon; its sharp edges make it a soft sword. Since you've just broken through to the Golden Core stage, I've prepared new sword techniques and Palm Technique for you here. Study them carefully... Huh? What are you doing?"

Tang Ruowei put away the measuring tape she had been holding in front of her chest, coughed awkwardly twice, and replied, "It's nothing."

Bai Qiuran looked her up and down, then smiled and said, "Looks like you've found its most useful aspect... Not bad, if you're in a good mood, you can also use it to measure your chest... Your progress in Fortune Body Forging Technique, by the way, what level have you reached in your Fortune Body Forging Technique?"

"Twentieth floor."

Tang Ruowei said with a bitter face, "It's been stuck for over a year."

"Take your time and work hard. Remember, you need to go to the 50th floor; it gets harder as you go on."

Bai Qiuran handed the book she had taken out to Tang Ruowei.

"I have something to attend to this time and cannot teach you personally. The Palm Technique and swordsmanship are all in here. Take them and practice them diligently... If you don't understand anything, go ask the Sect Master and Elder. They will explain it to you."

Just as she was giving instructions, a girl's voice suddenly called out from outside Bai Qiuran's door.

"Is Sword Ancestor here? Li Jinyao from the Heavenly Demon Sect requests an audience."

"Miss Li?"

Bai Qiuran looked at Tang Ruowei and muttered, "What's she doing here?"

"Yes, but why?"

Tang Ruowei turned her head away, scratching her face as she spoke.

After a pause, perhaps hearing no response from inside, Li Jinyao called out again, "Is Ruowei here? Your sister has come to discuss something important with you!"

"Miss Li."

Bai Qiuran replied, "Ruowei is here, please come in."

Upon hearing Bai Qiuran's response, Li Jinyao quickly ran in and greeted Bai Qiuran.

"Hello, Sword Ancestor, it's a pleasure to meet you."

Then she turned to Tang Ruowei and greeted her, "Ruowei, your older sister is here."

"Do you need to see her about something?"

Bai Qiuran and said, "Then this old man won't stay here any longer and keep you two from having your private conversation... I'll head out now."

"Wait a minute, Sword Ancestor is alright."

Li Jinyao quickly stopped him.

"It's nothing important between me and Ruowei, and besides, I have something to discuss with Sword Ancestor."

"Alright then, actually I also need to talk to you about something... wait a minute."

As Bai Qiuran spoke, he began rummaging through his Storage Bag again, and at the same time asked, "Miss Li seems especially happy today, is there something good?"

Yes, yes.

Li Jinyao nodded, seemingly happy to share such good news with others.

"I just broke through the Spirit Severing Stage. Then I had a sword duel with my master, and finally won against him in Saber Technique this time."

"What? Ji Lingyun lost to you in a fight?"

Bai Qiuran said blankly.

"Yes, she dragged Grandmaster Huangfu out for drinks today. She was crying and laughing at the same time at the table; it was hilarious."

With a happy expression, Li Jinyao uttered some extremely rebellious words.

"That piece of trash, he actually became a dead-end ship so much earlier than Jueyunzi."

Bai Qiuran took out a pair of Twin Sabers from her Storage Bag.

"Then you can use these Twin Sabers... Here you go."

"I can't accept this."

At this moment, Li Jinyao became modest again, having immediately recognized the extraordinary nature of the Twin Sabers in Bai Qiuran's hands.

Sometimes Bai Qiuran really felt that, apart from retaining the Demonic Cultivator cultivation style of betraying their master and ancestors, the disciples of the Heavenly Demon Sect were becoming less and less like Demonic Cultivator with each generation.

"Take it. Anyway, I was planning to give it to the one with the best Saber Technique in your Heavenly Demon Sect. Although Huangfu Feng currently has the highest cultivation in Blade Dao, with your talent, it's only a matter of time before you surpass him."

Bai Qiuran said, "These two swords were forged by me using... well, using the teeth of an ancient demonic dragon, hence their name, Dragon Fang. The sword spirit has just been born, so you must treat it well and keep it happy; it can help you a lot."

"I see."

Having said all that, Li Jinyao no longer held back and nodded, accepting the Twin Sabers.

"So, what brings Miss Li to see me?"

Bai Qiuran asked again.

"It's like this, I heard from Sect Master Su that Sword Ancestor is going to the depths of the Savage Lands to seek some opportunities, and Jinyao would like to go with him."

Li Jinyao said earnestly, "Sword Ancestor Jinyao, although our combat strengths are worlds apart, I am quite confident in taking good care of your daily needs along the way... I've specifically trained in wifely skills, you know; I'm quite confident in cooking, sewing, and mending."

"That won't do."

Bai Qiuran decisively refused, saying, "You are the rising star of the Heavenly Demon Sect. If anything happens to you, wouldn't Ji Lingyun and Huangfu Feng be determined to fight me to the death? I don't want the Righteous Path and Demonic Path to fight again."

"No!"

Li Jinyao persisted, "What if I can do something you can't?"

"Then tell me, what can you do that I can't?"

Bai Qiuran thought to himself, "I, Old Bai, have seen it all, what skill don't I know?"

"If you tell me, I'll take you there."

"Master."

At this moment, Tang Ruowei, who was standing next to her, said something quietly.

"You forgot, Sister Li can fly..."

"Yes, I can fly!"

Li Jinyao gave Tang Ruowei a grateful look, then nodded hurriedly and said, "If the place you're looking for is a Void with no foothold, then I'll have to fly there with you on my sword."

Upon hearing their answers, Bai Qiuran was speechless. He wanted to argue, but facts spoke louder than words. No matter how outstanding his strength was, Qi Refining Stage Cultivators who couldn't fly simply couldn't fly.

"Okay, I can take you there."

After a long silence, Bai Qiuran finally spoke.

"Yeah!"

Li Jinyao cheered and hugged Tang Ruowei.

"But—you have to listen to me!"

Bai Qiuran added, "You're not allowed to do anything reckless, and... you must swear to grant me one request."
