Chapter 302 Your Eldest Sister Will Always Be Your Eldest Sister [Seeking Monthly Tickets]

Yuzhou City, Xin'an Pawnshop.

Before she knew it, Jingxi had turned twelve.

As agreed, it was time for the Qionghua Sect to send people to invite her.

Even though she was born to Jing Xiaolou's concubine, she was still just a "concubine's daughter".

But Jing Tian, ​​a self-made millionaire, really likes this bright and precocious granddaughter.

Although... her precocity is an exaggeration.

He could speak in a month or so, walk in two months, and compose essays at the age of four... If the Jing family hadn't intentionally kept him hidden, he would probably have become a famous child prodigy in the Song Dynasty, and might even have alarmed the current emperor.

However, her physical problems... show no signs of being resolved.

That fellow Daoist from the Qionghua Sect is indeed extraordinary. For more than ten years, he has remained the same, using the purest and most yang solar holy power to cleanse Jingxi's meridians every month while she is asleep, resisting the most yin and cold spiritual power within her body.

At first, Demon Lord Chonglou would often take advantage of the other party's arrival to invite him to spar...

However, Chonglou later often went into seclusion, and even his old friend rarely came to visit.

If it weren't for the Qionghua Sect members who had given Jingtian so many peaches of immortality, he probably would have died of old age...

Although Jing Tian was unwilling to become an immortal, he was still willing to try normal methods of prolonging life. He followed the laws of nature and gradually withdrew completely from the public eye, becoming a wealthy old man enjoying his retirement at home, no longer interfering in worldly affairs.

Jing Xiaolou, however, seemed quite indifferent to Jing Xi.

Since we can't solve it, we can only let those who are capable solve it; children and grandchildren have their own blessings.

Jing Tian and Xue Jian, on the one hand, scolded him for being so outrageous at his age, but on the other hand, they could only accept the outcome.

Moreover, on second thought, Qionghua Sect is indeed a good place.

For more than a decade since its founding, the Qionghua School has adhered to the principle of teaching without discrimination, widely recruiting disciples and spreading blessings...

Their disciples have traveled throughout China performing good deeds, spreading their teachings, building bridges and roads, and providing disaster relief, earning them a reputation comparable to that of Mount Shu. Some time ago, Mount Shu and Mount Qionghua even jointly set up the [Four Symbols, Five Elements, Eight Trigrams Grand Array], sealing the Well of Gods and Demons…

According to his grand-disciple, Li Xiaoyao, more than half the credit for the success of this matter should go to Elder Chu Xuan of the Qionghua Sect.

It is evident that Qionghua has the potential to hold the reins of the righteous path in the world. With Jingxi's talent, joining it would truly grant her the blessing of becoming an immortal!

This is a blessing that many people would pray for for lifetimes but could never obtain... Jing Tian had absolutely no reason to refuse on Jing Xi's behalf.

It's just that I'm a little reluctant to part with it.

"Master... Immortal masters from the Qionghua Sect and the Shushan Sect have come to pay their respects," the steward reported.

"Prepare a banquet to receive them," Jing Tian instructed, then proceeded to the main hall to meet them with practiced ease.

Upon seeing the newcomer, Jing Tian was somewhat surprised.

"Greetings, Master." Li Xiaoyao cupped his hands in greeting.

More than ten years have passed. He is now a father and the head of the Shushan Sect. He has also changed his unruly image and become heroic and upright.

Of course, his nature hadn't changed; he was only acting this way to avoid tarnishing the image of Mount Shu in public...

"Qionghua Sect's Yingkong greets Senior Jing," Yingkong Li bowed in return.

The principles of respecting the elderly and caring for the young are also taught in the assassin family. Thinking of how Fang Ge had specifically told her to be polite to Jing Tian beforehand, Li Yingkong felt speechless.

Earlier, when Zhao Yingkong was in class, she wasn't skipping classes... and her memories were completely synchronized.

Jing Tian carefully examined the unfamiliar face with his still clear old eyes.

With white hair and red eyes, fair and delicate skin, and a broad mind, she wore a smart outfit, mainly white with sky blue trim, and a dark blue vest over her upper body.

He carried four ancient purple flying swords on his back, which was quite extraordinary.

At first glance, Jing Tian thought he had encountered some of Chonglou's colleagues... but upon closer inspection, he could sense an aura of righteousness.

Judging from their attire, the other party should also be a senior figure of the Qionghua Sect.

Jing Tian recalled Fang Ge's promise that he would find the best teacher to guide Jing Xi.

Presumably, this female sword immortal is the one he has chosen. "Father, Grandmaster... can I go play with Sister Jingxi now?" Another girl beside Li Xiaoyao shook his arm and asked.

"How many times have I told you, you should call Jing Xi 'Shishu'!" Li Xiaoyao shook his head helplessly, and finally let Li Ge'en go to the Jing family's backyard.

"Oh dear... call Xiao Ge whatever you want when you're in love, I don't care about all that nonsense of etiquette here."

Jing Tian stroked his white beard and laughed heartily, "As long as you and I don't act like we're from different generations, we can each follow our own hierarchy."

—This generational hierarchy is quite messed up. Fang Ge and Li Xiaoyao are of the same generation, so Jin Xi should also be of the same generation as Li Xiaoyao...

Li Ying muttered a curse in her heart, then got down to business: "I have come here to invite Jing Xi to the Qionghua Sect, as agreed beforehand."

"If nothing unexpected happens... I should be one of her many masters. My main responsibility is to guide her in swordsmanship and sword techniques."

"...One of them?" Jing Tian asked, puzzled.

“That’s right. Besides me, there are two other people who are fully responsible for guiding her.”

Li Yingkong revealed a faint smile, the meaning of which was ambiguous, "They are all elders of my Qionghua Sect, who will respectively guide her in immortal arts and mental cultivation."

This is, of course, referring to Zhao Yingkong and Zhan Lan...

There's nothing that can be done about it; female team members are definitely better at taking care of children. If Chu Xuan were to teach her, Fang Ge was genuinely worried that Jing Xi's moral compass would plummet...

Compared to the vast amount of memories from the hundreds of previous reincarnations, the more than ten years spent staying at the Jing family in this life, and even the subsequent time spent being educated by the Qionghua Sect, account for a very small percentage.

In addition, Fang Ge plans to use the secret techniques of Mount Shu to gradually awaken Jing Xi's memories of her past life starting when she turns sixteen.

When Jinxi was created, her age was also set to be sixteen. This connection makes up for the missing peaceful childhood she had.

The fact that the soul remains unchanged has been confirmed repeatedly. The reincarnation of the Legend of Sword and Fairy is closer to regrowth after the [memory seal]... In short, it's a very low-cost reincarnation system.

A person's personality is often shaped by their past experiences. When memories are lost and then regained, and the self is integrated, the self-perception is often based on the life in which the experiences were richer.

Just like the reincarnation of the Immortal Emperor described in some novels... He was an Immortal Emperor for ten thousand years and a mortal for ten years. What reason would he have to think of himself as a purely mortal?

Fang Ge never worried about the situation of [Jin Xi Fei Jin Xi].

Over this period of time, his thoughts have become increasingly clear; all he needs is for Jinxi to have a fulfilling life.

only……

Are you here to pick me up?

A girl with snow-white silver hair swayed on a swing in the courtyard.

Even in the sweltering summer, she had to wear a thick brocade hat and fur coat, and even getting close to her brought a faint sense of coolness.

—It's like a living air conditioner, and so cute, like a porcelain doll…

Suddenly overwhelmed with girlish sentiments, Riyo Sora no longer seemed to complain about Fang Ge assigning unmarried women such a thankless task as childcare.

She nodded gently in agreement and smiled, "That's right, as long as you're willing to cultivate immortality, I'll be your master from now on!"

"I don't care about cultivating immortality or anything like that."

Jing Xi tilted her head slightly, revealing a faint smile: "I'm just looking for someone... There are still four years left, right?"

“…Yes.” Riyo Sora sensed something was wrong.

"After seeing you, a sentence suddenly came to mind... I always feel this way; when I see something special, my mind goes cold, and strange images pop into my head." Jing Xi's tone was gentle and elegant.

"What did you say?" Riyo swallowed hard.

"If you like something, learn to ask for it."

The tone and expression have a strong sense of déjà vu.

Riyosaku seemed to be hallucinating in front of the Scorpion King's tomb, at the moment when Imashio was urging Little Apple to join in.

Now... she's in a similar situation.

There are few truths in this world; a young girl's blush is more powerful than a long dialogue.
