Had Everyone Gone Back to Normal?
[It turns out that while they were fighting, another Mortal World man beat them to it and won the princess's heart.]
The three elders in the hall burst out laughing at the same time.
The Second Elder sighed, "I never imagined that the fourth and fifth brothers had such a shameful past. No wonder they couldn't stand each other, even though they were brothers."
A long silence followed.
The Third Elder said, "This little girl can't stay in the Sect anymore."
The First Elder: "I wholeheartedly agree!"
The Second Elder nodded. "Send them away tonight."
If Li Zi continues to harass them, what will become of the elders' reputation?
How can the disciples in the Sect concentrate on their cultivation when they're all engrossed in gossip?
They must be sent away!
That night, Li Zi's breakthrough was somewhat difficult, so the three of them secretly intervened, injecting vast Spiritual Qi into her body to help her break through.
Having finally broken through the barrier of the eighth level Cultivation Qi Refining Stage, Li Zi had just stood up when he was blocked by three elders.
The First Elder smiled and said, "Little girl, you've been in the Sect for quite some time now, and your senior brothers and sisters miss you dearly. Let's send you back today."
Li Zi bit her lip, tears glistening in her eyes.
Are you trying to kick me out?
Her teary eyes were incredibly endearing.
The thought of facing Ran Zirou when she got back made her feel like she was about to break down.
She did want to compete with Ran Zirou, but now she was facing a reborn heroine with cheat codes; how could she possibly win?
She originally planned to cultivate here until she reached the Foundation Establishment Realm, so that she would at least have some ability to protect herself.
I didn't expect to be sent back so soon.
Although she didn't know what use she was for coming here, she hadn't even seen Huo Fei.
"We're not trying to get rid of you," the Second Elder said. "Immortal Ziyang wants to take you to stay with her for a while. It's already difficult enough that we can keep you for a month. After a while, she will come to kill us."
The other two elders nodded in agreement.
They could pin the blame directly on Immortal Ziyang without any remorse.
Li Zi with tears, "I miss my godmother too."
Very good, it's the same if she goes back and goes to the Hehuan Sect with her godmother.
She was sent back to the Spirit Sword Sect overnight.
The three elders put Li Zi down and left quickly, as if they wanted to avoid her at all costs.
Fu Chaoqing, who came to pick up Li Zi, asked her suspiciously, "What were you doing at the Flame Hall?"
Li Zi looked bewildered. "I spend all my time cultivating in the Gravity Body Tempering Refining Pavilion."
Why did these three elders treat her this way?
The two didn't dwell on the matter too much, and Fu Chaoqing highly praised Li Zi for actually breaking through to the Eighth Level of Qi Refining Stage.
"You were born with Divine Bone. If you don't cultivate diligently, it would be a waste of such a wonderful gift. Although your senior brothers and sisters will protect you, they can't protect you forever."
Such concerned words, however, sounded completely different to Li Zi.
[See? I've only been gone a short while, and my senior brother is already completely on Ran Zirou's side, trying to sow discord between me and them. He wants me to be independent, not too dependent on them, and to be prepared to be abandoned at any time.]
Chapter 36 Has Everyone Returned to Normal?
Fu Chaoqing, "Junior sister, don't overthink it. Your senior brother is just simply reminding you to cultivate diligently."
No, he didn't mention Ran Zirou at all in his words.
Ran Zirou has been in the Sect for almost half a month, and he hasn't seen her at all.
Li Zi nodded obediently, "I understand Senior Brother's good intentions, I will work hard in my cultivation."
[And then he started lecturing me impatiently. "There's no love left between us, is there? Sure enough, my senior brother will soon become the female lead. Human nature is so cold and heartless."]
Fu Chaoqing felt it was better for him to talk less.
"Senior brother, senior sister!"
A charming voice rang out.
Li Zi, standing still in place.
Ran Zirou was chatting and laughing with a group of disciples when she waved to her with a smile.
Fu Chaoqing instinctively stepped forward to Li Zi's path.
He grabbed Li Zi's hand, took a half step back, and was extremely wary.
"Junior Sister Ran, I have some things to tell Xiao Zi, so we'll be leaving now."
Ran Zirou urgently called out to the two of them, panting as she ran over and blocked their path.
Her exquisitely beautiful face was filled with grievance.
"Senior brother, do you not welcome me as your junior sister? Why have you been avoiding me ever since I entered the Sect?"
After speaking, she glanced at Fu Chaoqing holding Li Zi's hand, using the gesture of wiping away tears to conceal the resentment in her eyes.
Damn it!
What kind of bewitching potion did Li Zi give Fu Chaoqing?
In her past life, her face had completely captivated Fu Chaoqing, making him determined to marry no one but her. How come things are different in this life?
Although Fu Chaoqing 'Cultivation talent was average, he was skilled in alchemy.
In the Cultivation World, Medicinal Pill are a rare and precious Cultivation Resources. She was waiting to bewitch Fu Chaoqing so that he would refine Medicinal Pill specifically for her.
Since joining the Sect, Fu Chaoqing had always avoided her, and she really didn't understand why.
It now seems that Li Zi, the variable, probably said something to Fu Chaoqing first.
Are they falling in love?
This shouldn't be happening!
Li Zi only eight years old and hasn't fully grown up yet; she's clearly just a tender little bean sprout. How could Fu Chaoqing possibly have those kinds of thoughts about her?
Fu Chaoqing said coldly and expressionlessly, "I'm not avoiding you. I'm just refining pills and don't like being disturbed by outsiders."
