Long Xiao walked to Qian Renxue's room. The moment he reached the door, he heard the women whispering about something inside.
He hurriedly pushed the door open and went in.
Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong had been discussing something. When they suddenly saw Long Xiao enter, both their cheeks flushed.
"Lord Sect Master, why are you here?"
"Uh... I came to check on you. Xue'er, are you settling in well here?" Long Xiao asked awkwardly after clearing his throat.
"Very well."
Qian Renxue's face was somewhat flushed. Bibi Dong had just taught her how to get along with the Sect Master and what she needed to be mindful of within the sect.
She had also said that the Sea God Douluo was here too and was her greatest enemy, so the two of them could only prevail by joining forces.
Under normal circumstances, she would definitely have called her stupid, but since the person in question was Long Xiao, she truly did not want to resist him.
"You two talk. I'll head out for a while." Bibi Dong was very considerate.
Before leaving, she deliberately shut the door tightly behind her.
"Sect Master, have a seat."
Qian Renxue sat on the edge of the bed and looked around. Seeing nowhere else suitable for Long Xiao to sit, she invited him to sit beside her on the bed.
Long Xiao did not stand on ceremony and sat down beside her. Her fragrance wafted into his nose, and he found it very pleasant.
Qian Renxue lowered her head, not daring to look at him.
"Xue'er, now that you're here, stop thinking about the Angel God. To attain Angel Godhood, your grandfather would need to be sacrificed."
Long Xiao toyed with her golden hair.
"What?!"
"My grandfather would die?"
At this point, she did not know about this. Her grandfather was even more important to her than that woman. How could he be sacrificed?
She could not accept it!
"I'm not lying to you. If you don't believe me, go ask him yourself. If Tang San attains the Sea God, the Sea God Douluo will die as well."
Long Xiao had no idea what those gods in the Spirit World were thinking. They were not particularly capable, yet they sure knew how to play fancy tricks.
They had come up with some Nine Trials nonsense that looked incredibly grand and impressive.
Qian Renxue's eyes had already reddened. She found it hard to accept such a thing.
Long Xiao quickly took her little hand. He simply could not bear seeing such a beautiful woman cry in front of him and only wanted to comfort her. He had no other thoughts.
Seeing that Qian Renxue was still sobbing, Long Xiao naturally pulled her into his embrace.
"Xue'er, don't we have a chance to change all this now? You can forget about that Angel Godhood. Stay here and cultivate properly with your grandfather. You can achieve something a thousand, even a hundred thousand times greater than the Angel God. The strongest fist is the truth. When that time comes, you can change the rules however you want."
Long Xiao comforted her gently. He really did like this golden-haired beauty.
Qian Renxue raised her lovely, tear-streaked face and nodded softly.
The Sect Master was right. She now had a better opportunity. She wanted to become stronger.
She could forget about this Angel Godhood. It was a harmful thing.
Perhaps Bibi Dong had been right.
Qian Renxue curled up in Long Xiao's arms like a kitten.
Long Xiao froze for a moment, then rubbed her head.
Qian Renxue was terribly shy. For some reason, she deeply revered Long Xiao. As long as it was something he said, she could not refuse it.
"Xue'er, take that Heavenly Dipper Pill first and see how it works," Long Xiao reminded her.
"All right. Please stand guard for Xue'er, Sect Master."
Qian Renxue broke free from Long Xiao's embrace, then sat cross-legged on the bed and took out the green pill from her storage Soul Tool.
She looked at Long Xiao with puzzled beautiful eyes. "Sect Master, is this pill really that miraculous?"
"Of course. The path of pills holds endless mysteries, far beyond what your tiny Spirit Continent can compare to," Long Xiao said with a smile.
"Oh, I understand."
Qian Renxue did not hesitate any longer and immediately swallowed the Heavenly Dipper Pill.
Long Xiao sat beside her, watching her without blinking.
Qian Renxue closed her eyes and felt the surging elemental power within her body. Her heartbeat grew faster and faster. She even felt as though her blood were boiling, making her entire body heat up.
Qian Renxue gritted her teeth and began refining the energy. She was still not very familiar with controlling spiritual energy.
[Ding! Gu Rong, Qian Daoliu, and Chen Xin obtained a total of 5120 Summoning Points today.]
Hearing the system's sudden notification, Long Xiao was stunned. He had struck it rich. He had more than 1,000 left over from the last draw, and now he could perform six Bronze ten-pulls.
It seemed that in the future, he needed to have them help out in nearby towns. Not only that, he needed to put up notices so that anyone with work could come to the Divine Sect.
[Ding! Qian Renxue broke through to the Tiangang Realm Sixth Layer and obtained 500 Summoning Credits!]
Before he could calm down, another piece of good news arrived.
He looked up and saw that Qian Renxue's aura had indeed become stronger, but something seemed off about her eyes.
"Sect Master, I'm so hot."
Qian Renxue's eyes were utterly unfocused. Just like Bo Saixi, it was probably caused by chaotic energy inside her body, and she needed some time to adapt.
"Sect Master..."
Qian Renxue collapsed into Long Xiao's arms. Her body trembled slightly, and her breath was fragrant as an orchid. She looked exceptionally alluring.
"Xue'er, then go take a bath first."
"All right..."
Qian Renxue nodded.
Knock, knock!
"Sect Master! Dinner's ready!"
It was already evening. The little chef Xu Jiaojiao was calling everyone to the dining hall for dinner.
"Jiao Jiao, no need to call them. The Sect Master and Little Xue have something to discuss. Let's eat first."
Bibi Dong walked over and stopped Xu Jiaojiao.
"Oh, all right." She had no idea what the Sect Master was doing in this new sister's room. Usually, he was the most enthusiastic about eating, yet now he was even skipping dinner.
But she did not know that somewhere within the sect, golden liquid and crimson blood were overflowing.
Elsewhere.
Mo Duo squatted beside the toilet with a gloomy expression. There were too few people in the sect. Business at this toilet had been poor lately, and it did not even need cleaning every day.
He was doing a rather poor job as the toilet manager.
"Forget it. I'll go eat first."
At the gates of the Divine Sect.
Tang San sat at the guard post with one leg crossed over the other, wearing a philosophical expression as his right hand did something unknown.
The gates of the Divine Sect were very quiet. At most, a few little wild monsters would sneak in, and he could deal with them casually with a single Unfixed Storm.
At that moment, three figures appeared at the gates. They were Qian Daoliu and the other two, returning from work.
Chen Xin said, "I earned 1,000 Spirit Stones and 150,000 gold coins today."
Qian Daoliu sighed. "I completed twenty-one tasks. There were no Spirit Stones, only 60,000 gold coins."
Gu Rong said, "You two aren't much. I earned 200,000 gold coins and exchanged them all for Spirit Stones. The exchange rate is one Spirit Stone for a hundred gold coins, so I now have 2,000 Spirit Stones."
Qian Daoliu gave Gu Rong a disdainful glance. "Then what are you yelling for? Little Chen Xin's earnings are equivalent to 2,500 Spirit Stones."
Tang San, who was inside the guard post, heard their conversation. He hurriedly put on his pants and immediately ran out.
"Seniors, you made quite a lot today, didn't you? Lend me some money? I'll trade you immortal herbs for it."
