Sword Province, Sword Sect. Inside a cultivation chamber.
Two figures sat facing each other.
Two Long Swords rested across Zhang Suannai's lap. Before her lay an Otherworldly Beast Core and three bottles of pills. Her expression was grave. "Sixth Senior Sister, please guard me while I cultivate!"
"Yawn..."
The woman opposite her yawned.
"Sixth Senior Sister!"
Zhang Suannai grew even more solemn. "You're the only one in the entire sect I trust! Whether I succeed in my Breakthrough or not, if I do anything embarrassing while I'm out of my mind after taking the Essence-Returning Pill, you must keep it secret!"
"Yawn..."
"Sixth Senior Sister! Swear it!"
"Yawn..."
The woman opposite her kept yawning and paid her no attention.
Zhang Suannai felt utterly helpless.
She had gone to Third Senior Sister yesterday, but her attitude had been even worse. She had said outright that if Zhang Suannai did anything stupid, she would record it. Anything suitable would go into Share Fortune, Leave in Hardship; anything unsuitable she would keep to blackmail her. She had promised to keep Zhang Suannai safe, though.
Zhang Suannai had gotten up and left on the spot.
Only today had she come to Sixth Senior Sister instead.
But judging by the look of her...
Zhang Suannai's heart gradually sank.
Luckily, she had something on Sixth Senior Sister—
About a decade ago, when Sixth Senior Sister had attempted to reach the Eighth Tier, she had trusted none of her senior or junior martial siblings. Only Junior Sister had still been a child, so she had asked her, then in her teens, to guard her. What she hadn't expected was that, young as Junior Sister was, she had already grasped the essence of Swordsmanship.
