Glazed Sword Heart

Wu Ran lowered her head, looked at the jade bottle in the little girl's hand, and accepted it.

"What is this?"

"A Sky Mending Pill. It's perfect for your situation, Sister Wu Ran. Eat it!"

Looking at the Sky Mending Pill in her hand, Wu Ran stood frozen in shock.

Ever since her dantian had been damaged, she had already given up, because even a Nascent Soul True Lord from the Myriad Pill Sect might not be able to refine a pill like the Sky Mending Pill.

Wanting to obtain one was simply a wild fantasy. A minor cultivator like her did not even deserve the chance.

And now, this little thing before her had simply handed her one?

"Th-this is for saving your life, given to you by the Sect Master, isn't it? I..."

Jiang Wan spread her little hands and shook her head.

"No, I picked it up on the road. Sister Wu Ran, hurry and eat it. I'll watch you eat it."

Wu Ran said, "I'll take you back first, then eat it."

Jiang Wan was still waiting for the system reward and immediately urged her on.

"I'm not going back. I still want to play elsewhere. I'm watching you eat it."

Wu Ran directly opened the pill bottle and swallowed the pill.

"I'm going back for secluded cultivation."

Jiang Wan said, "Go on, go on. I'm going to play."

[Daily Good Deed 3/3.

Helped a weak cultivation disciple repair her dantian. Mission reward: Poison Repelling Bead.]

When worn, any poison that tries to approach you will automatically rebound.

Jiang Wan thought the rebounding function of this Poison Repelling Bead was simply wonderful.

Though she probably would not need it for now, she still wore it. Her little life came first.

She hung the Poison Repelling Bead around her neck.

She was off to continue doing good deeds. Ordinary disciples generally did not need her help, though. Holding Fat Tiger in her arms, she found the cat had grown a whole round fatter than a few days ago.

"Junior Sister, I found you. Junior Brother Dong Chen from the Myriad Sword Sect has come to challenge you. He's waiting in your courtyard."

[Sword Venerable Dong Chen has returned with renewed vigor. This time, he is surely determined to kill you in one strike. Defeat him, spare him, and reform him through your actions.

Let him know that though you are the Supreme Heavenly Demon, you are not one who slaughtered innocents wantonly.

Mission difficulty: Extremely high.

Mission reward: Glazed Sword Heart.]

Glazed Sword Heart sounded quite nice. It was just that little Dong Chen was stubborn and unafraid of a beating. Ah, she had it—she had a sure-win weapon.

When she returned to the courtyard, she saw little Dong Chen with his hair tied in two buns, dressed in a fitted-sleeve outfit and carrying a longsword taller than he was.

Poor kid. Carrying such a sword all day long, was he not afraid it would weigh him down and keep him from growing? Sword sect disciples would not look good if they were too short!

"Senior Brother Dong Chen."

When Dong Chen saw Jiang Wan with her hair in two buns, wearing a light-purple dress, her big double-lidded eyes curving like crescents when she smiled, the young boy's eyes instantly lit up, and a smile bloomed unconsciously on his lips.

Jiang Wan ran over on her short little legs. Little Sword Cultivator, you brought yourself right to your big sister for bullying!

"Senior Brother Dong Chen, did you come to challenge me?

Come on, let's go inside."

Little Dong Chen had come today because his master had punished him, and he wanted to run away from home, so he had come looking for her.

Jiang Wan had been preparing to make her move on him, but upon hearing that, she was utterly dumbfounded.

"You want to run away from home? You..."

The new generation's foremost disciple of the Myriad Sword Sect, the future Sword Venerable Dong Chen, had actually wanted to run away from home as a child. Hahahahahahahahahaha.

Jiang Wan really wanted to laugh after hearing this, but she was a good listener and could not laugh. Although being transported here had compressed her intelligence with the brain capacity of a three-year-old, she still could not laugh—unless she could not hold it in.

"Why would you have such an idea?

Is practicing the sword too tiring?"

Little Dong Chen nodded, then shook his head.

"I miss my mother."

Jiang Wan sighed like a little adult, sat cross-legged opposite him, and spread her hands.

"Then go back and see her?

But you're still too young, and your cultivation is too low. You can't even fly on a sword yet. How will you go see your mother?

You can't even beat me. What if you encounter an Evil Cultivator who wants to tie you up and take you away?"

Those words struck several sore spots. In the end, Dong Chen focused on the part about not being able to beat Jiang Wan.

"Who says I can't beat you? I'm already at Qi Refining Layer Three."

Jiang Wan stared at him in surprise. Did he have to advance so quickly? She was still at Qi Refining Layer Three, and he had already reached Layer Three?

He came here to seek balance from her, did he, little friend?

"So what if you're at Qi Refining Layer Three? Let your big sister bully you properly."

Jiang Wan got carried away and blurted out what she was thinking, then pounced straight at little Dong Chen across from her.

This time, she did not bother with so much foreplay. She went straight for the point, pinned him beneath her, and reached beneath his most vulnerable, sensitive armpits to tickle him.

At first, little Dong Chen still wanted to turn the tables, but Jiang Wan had the support of the Great Earth Divine Ape's blood essence. Competing with her in strength was pointless.

She swung her short little leg over him and pinned the other child down so firmly that he could not move.

Realizing there was no hope of turning over, little Dong Chen held out for two seconds before laughing aloud. Once he started laughing, there was no stopping it.

Jiang Wan thought, That's more like it. Generally, filial people are ticklish.

"Admit defeat, or I won't stop."

Hearing that, little Dong Chen suppressed his laughter for one second, then burst out laughing again.

"Will you admit defeat or not?"

"Hahahahahaha, hahahahaha, hahahahahahahahahahahahaha! I-I admit defeat, hahahaha."

Jiang Wan smiled smugly too. So what if your cultivation is higher than mine? You still had to admit defeat.

"Then I'll spare you this time. If you're unhappy again next time, come find me to fight. I guarantee you'll be happy."

[You defeated Sword Venerable Dong Chen once again and spared him. He indeed sensed that you were not one who slaughtered innocents wantonly, revealing his first smile in five hundred years.

Mission complete.

Completion reward: Glazed Sword Heart.]

Fairy Xueyun had been standing outside since early morning, resisting the urge to go in and stop her daughter. Forget it, they were both children as pure as blank sheets of paper.

"Sister Zixiang, I heard my senior brother came."

When Jiang Yao heard that Sword Venerable Dong Chen had come looking for Jiang Wan, she had already smashed a set of teacups in her residence.

Who exactly was his junior sister? He came to the Myriad Talisman Sect yet did not come find her—what was he looking for Jiang Wan for?

It was worth mentioning that the four great Myriad sects were not far apart. Of them, the Myriad Talisman Sect and the Myriad Sword Sect were the closest, followed by the Myriad Pill Sect.

Zixiang glanced at the two children playing inside, then looked at Jiang Yao and nodded.

"He's here, he's here. He's inside playing with Junior Sister."

Jiang Yao stomped inside, saw the two of them sitting on the floor with their clothes in disarray, glared at Jiang Wan, then grabbed little Dong Chen and said:

"Senior Brother, I'm your junior sister. There are things in cultivation I don't understand. Come teach me."

Little Dong Chen had only just risen from the floor when Jiang Yao tugged him toward the door. The relaxed muscles on his face instantly tightened again, and his little brows furrowed.

After taking two steps, he shook off her hand.

"I want to play with Junior Sister Wanwan. If you don't understand, go find Master and have Master teach you. I don't understand either."

Watching little Dong Chen shake Jiang Yao off and walk over to Jiang Wan's side, Jiang Yao was furious. Why did she not remember their relationship being this good when they were this young in her previous life?
