Master, when can I become your wife?

Time always flies by in the world of cultivation.

In the blink of an eye, another year has passed.

In a few more days, it will be the day when the Dao Seeking Sect recruits new disciples once every ten years.

Many disciples in charge of recruiting new members for the sect have already begun preparations.

This day.

Luo Yunxi stayed at Hidden Sword Peak, watching her junior sister.

A year has passed.

Qingqiu Snow looks exactly the same.

It looks the same as it did when it arrived.

Luo Yunxi didn't understand.

Throughout the year, Qingqiu Xue ate and drank well, but nothing changed.

Where did all the food go?

She knew that the growth rate of demons was related to their race, and many needed decades or even hundreds of years to reach adulthood.

But surely there shouldn't be no change at all after a year?

She was hoping that when Qingqiu Xue grew up, she would kick Qingqiu Xue out of Ye Junze's room and let her enjoy it all by herself.

So throughout the year, she kept feeding Qingqiu Xue spirit fruits.

Unfortunately, the result is not satisfactory.

"Senior sister, what's wrong?"

Qingqiu Xue tilted her head, looking at Luo Yunxi with a puzzled expression.

Throughout the year, Luo Yunxi would suddenly scrutinize her every now and then, and would even measure her height.

Although she didn't know why, her senior sister Luo Yunxi was indeed very good to her, and she hadn't lacked food all year.

Upon hearing Qingqiu Xue's question, Luo Yunxi fell silent for a moment before asking, "When will you grow up?"

"grow up?"

Qingqiu Xue was puzzled. After thinking about it seriously, she replied, "I don't know. Maybe I'll grow up automatically when my cultivation level is high enough?"

"..."

Luo Yunxi was somewhat helpless for a moment. She knew too little about the demon race, only a little bit from her previous history classes.

But the main focus of history school is still on learning history.

Regarding the question of the growth of the demon race, we'll have to go to the library to find out.

"Where did Master go?"

Qingqiu Xue looked around and asked with some confusion, "I didn't see Ye Junze when I got up this morning."

"Master has gone out on business."

Luo Yunxi rested her face on the stone table, not knowing what Ye Junze had gone to do.

……

Meanwhile, at the treasure pavilion.

Ye Junze is asking Lin Qiu for resources. During this time, Luo Yunxi and Qingqiu Xue's cultivation levels have both improved significantly.

Luo Yunxi's cultivation level has reached the peak of the Golden Core realm.

Qingqiu Xue's cultivation level has also increased to the peak of Foundation Establishment.

Both are just one step away from the next stage.

So, as the master, he naturally had to prepare cultivation resources for his two obedient disciples to advance to the next realm.

Because he had suffered hardship in the past, he did not want his disciples to follow in his footsteps, so cultivation resources had to be plentiful!

Lin Qiu was already used to Ye Junze coming to buy goods.

After instructing his disciples to prepare the resources, he said, "In a few days, it will be the day for our Dao Seeking Sect to recruit new members. I also plan to go and take on a disciple. What about you?"

"Me?"

Ye Junze pondered for a moment and said, "We'll see when the time comes, but I'm not in a hurry. My two disciples are already enough of a headache for me."

Lin Qiu curled his lip dismissively and said, "What's your headache? Aren't your two disciples quite well-behaved?"

Others are envious, but this guy actually complains about a headache. He's shameless.

Ye Junze shook his head without offering an explanation.

The main problem is that the current situation is a bit strange; both disciples are sleeping in their own bamboo huts.

If another one comes along, that would be terrible.

Soon, the disciples working in the Treasure Pavilion prepared the resources Ye Junze needed and handed them over to him.

Just then.

Wu Tianqiong's voice reached Ye Junze's ears.

Assemble in the council hall.

Ye Junze's hand holding the spatial ring paused slightly. What happened? Why was he being called over?

"The sect leader has summoned me, so I'll be going now. Remember to bring your disciples to me in a few days after you've accepted them."

After saying this, Ye Junze flew to the council hall on his sword.

Inside the council hall.

Wu Tianqiong and the other eleven elders gathered here.

Ye Junze paused abruptly as he stepped into the council hall.

All twelve peak masters were present again.

This doesn't make sense, does it?

Could it be that something is about to happen to me again?

If something truly major has happened, then of the twelve peak masters present, including him, eleven are beyond Wu Tianqiong's control.

"What are you doing standing outside the door? Come in."

Wu Tianqiong looked at Ye Junze standing at the door and called out.

Ye Junze remained silent for a long time before finally walking in and taking his seat.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Wu Tianqiong cleared his throat and said, "Ahem, the reason I called you all here is because of something..."

"Sect Master, you know me. If you need my help with anything, I will definitely find a reason to refuse."

"Sect Master, you know me. I only managed to come here in my busy schedule. I'm very busy."

"Sect Master, you..."

"Stop, stop, stop!"

Wu Tianqiong twitched the corner of his mouth and immediately raised his hand to stop the peak masters from speaking.

I'm speechless. He hasn't even said what it is, and everyone's already starting to refuse.

Why are they so disrespectful to him, the sect leader?

The peak master, who had been stopped, shrugged and leaned back in his seat.

Although he was stopped, he believed that Wu Tianqiong had understood his meaning.

Wu Tianqiong said speechlessly, "You guys pull this stunt every day, you might as well not come at all."

"Hey! That makes sense, then I'll be going now."

Ye Wuyou, who was sitting to Ye Junze's right, immediately stood up and turned to leave.

"stop!"

Wu Tianqiong immediately shouted.

Ye Wuyou turned to look at Wu Tianqiong.

"Give me some face."

Wu Tianqiong's tone softened instantly.

"OK."

Ye Wuyou sat back down and turned to look at Ye Junze.

"Hey kid, after you relayed Ling Ye's message, didn't I go to the Heavenly Demon Palace and beat him up?"

"The witch from the Heavenly Demon Palace mentioned you back then, and the look in her eyes... tsk, it's hard to say. She even said you invited her over as a guest, is that true?"

"So, how did you end up messing with the people from the Heavenly Demon Palace? Don't you know that some of them are a bit mentally unstable?"

Ye Junze's lips twitched. "You should blame my master for this. If he hadn't withheld resources from me, would I have gone out on missions? And if I hadn't gone out on missions, would I have met that guy?"

"Oh, I see. But it's alright, just be careful and don't get drained dry."

"???"

Ye Junze was stunned. "Do you want to hear what you're saying?"

"Here, take it beforehand."

Sitting to Ye Junze's left was the peak master of Danfeng, a woman of unparalleled beauty.

However, she always maintained an aloof and unapproachable demeanor.

At that moment, she placed a pill into Ye Junze's hand.
