Sword Sect Little Demon Child, Three and a Half Years Old and Extremely Fierce

After eating and drinking to their hearts' content, everyone began to say goodbye.

The emperor descended and urged them to stay a few more days: "Gentlemen, why don't you stay a few more days? I've ordered all the delicious food in Wujing to be gathered here, and I guarantee there won't be a single dish the same. There are eighteen flavors of candied hawthorn, nine kinds of fillings for soup dumplings, seven kinds of soup bases for stinky tofu, and snail rice noodles..."

Little Black's ears perked up: "Luosifen (river snail rice noodles)?"

Emperor: "Yes. Plenty of pickled bamboo shoots."

Xiao Hei turned to look at me, its golden vertical pupils screaming: Please! Stay! For the snail rice noodles!

I turned to look at Wei Cangxuan, waiting for him to speak.

Wei Cangxuan shook his head: "Let's not keep them. High-level cultivators are prone to getting entangled in karma if they stay in the mortal realm for a long time, which is not good for either side."

Curious, I pressed further, "What cause and effect? ​​Is it serious?"

Wei Cangxuan glanced at me, then pointed at Gu Chenguang: "Look at him."

I turned to look at Gu Chenguang, and Gu Chenguang was also taken aback.

Wei Cangxuan said unhurriedly, "He was brought back from the Great Yan. You and your brother also came from the Great Yan. Aren't you already burdened with enough karma? If you stay any longer, the karma will only entangle you further, endlessly."

I opened my mouth, then closed it again.

There is no rebuttal.

The Great Array of the Mortal Realm had been lying at the bottom of the sea in the mortal realm for ten thousand years.

Elder Wangji descended to the mortal realm a hundred years ago and took Gu Chenguang, the fruit, with him.

My parents took my older brother and lived in seclusion in Dayan a hundred years ago, and seven years ago they had me, their child.

I left the Desolate Lands three and a half years ago and ended up in the Great Yan.

I made friends in Dayan, discovered the great formation in Dayan, and solved the problems in Dayan.

From beginning to end, it's all entanglements, probably more tangled than a ball of yarn.

The Zen abbot, hands clasped in prayer, spoke at the opportune moment: "All causes and effects in this world have their origins. You have come here to save the beings of the mortal realm. If you do good deeds, you will reap good results. When good results enter the heart, there will be no inner demons. What Master Wei is worried about is the entanglement of causes and effects, but causes and effects are also divided into good and evil. If you sow good seeds, you will naturally reap good results."

I nodded vigorously: "Yes, yes, yes, the host speaks with great skill. Sect Master, you should learn from him."

Wei Cangxuan glanced at me, then said helplessly, "Alright. Stop flattering me."

He stood up and scanned the crowd:

"The Heavenly Realm might have some kind of retaliatory measures this time, so we need to go back and make preparations in advance."

"Most importantly, everyone must intensify their cultivation. Those of you who have successfully transcended the tribulation must return and go into seclusion to digest the power of the tribulation and solidify your foundation."

"Those who haven't undergone tribulation should also return to cultivate their inner immortal essence and solidify their cultivation."

Everyone nodded.

After saying goodbye.

My mother said, "Everyone, please go to the Royal Hunting Grounds with Xiao Pin'er and wait. The teleportation array is over there."

I immediately asked, "Mom, where are you going?"

My mother said, "Go back to Xianmengju and get some old things."

Me: "Do you want me to come with you?"

"No need," my mother gently shook her head.

My brother stepped forward and said, "Mom, let me stay with you."

She politely declined again, saying, "No need."

The brother glanced at her, then stopped insisting and nodded.

As I watched the direction she left, I suddenly noticed that her steps were lighter than usual.

Little Black perched on my shoulder, looking completely innocent: "Your mom's in a good mood."

I was surprised: "You could tell?"

Xiao Hei: "Her steps are lighter than usual. I have a very keen eye for observation."

Me: "You even observe this?"

Little Black: "I've lived for ten thousand years, what haven't I seen?"

Me: "Have you ever seen snail rice noodles?"

Xiao Hei: "...Never seen it before. But I'm about to see it; the Emperor has packed it up for me."

I frowned: "But the snail rice noodles will smell bad the whole way."

Xiao Hei didn't care: "I'm not afraid of the stench."

Me: "I'm scared. I'll sit in the same teleportation array as you."

Xiao Hei: "Then sit further away."

Me: "The teleportation array is only that big."

Xiao Hei: "Then hold your breath."

Me: "...Thank you."

The emperor waved his hand with a smile, "It's alright, the food boxes I had prepared are sealed. The snail rice noodle soup and noodles are packaged separately, and the pickled bamboo shoots are in a separate box. That way they won't smell bad."

Xiao Hei nodded with satisfaction: "You're a very savvy emperor."

The emperor cupped his hands, a hint of self-satisfaction in his smile: "I am the Son of Heaven, and serving the Son of Heaven is my duty."

As he spoke, he clapped his hands again and had several large boxes brought over.

He turned to Gu Chenguang, his tone respectful: "Your Majesty, these are some paintings, food, and specialties from the mortal realm that I had prepared. It's just a small token of my appreciation, and I hope Your Majesty will accept it. I will protect this homeland well, and Your Majesty is welcome to come home and visit often when you have time."

Gu Chenguang patted his shoulder, his tone mature: "Grandson, you're very thoughtful."

The emperor beamed with joy at being called "grandson."

Abandoned royal hunting grounds.

The teleportation array was still in the same place, and the weeds had been cleared away by the palace servants.

I was about to take out the spirit stone and embed it into the core of the formation when I suddenly stopped.

All the spirit stones were thrown into the underwater formation!!

I touched my storage bracelets, but there wasn't a single one.

Touching the cuff, there was only one dragon.

He reached into his pocket and found only half a piece of leftover taro cake.

I turned to look at everyone: "Does anyone still have spirit stones?"

Everyone looked at each other.

Wei Cangxuan touched his sleeve; it was empty.

My brother shrugged: "I've given it all to you."

The senior students searched every inch of Su Ning's body, even turning her braid upside down, but couldn't find it.

The Zen abbot searched through all the pockets of his robe and found only half a candle.

Ji Yanci rummaged through the ribbons and found only a hairpin.

Bai Jingxin rummaged through her sleeves and found only a handful of fox fur.

The entire room fell silent, an awkward silence that even Xiao Hei dared not utter a word.

Finally, Wei Cangxuan broke the silence: "I will use my spiritual power to support the formation. You all go back first. Xiao Pin'er, go back and borrow some spirit stones, then come down to fetch me."

No sooner had the words left his mouth than the sound of horses' hooves approached from afar.

It is Gu Zhining, Gu Zhaoye, Yang Lingshu, Yang Xiaolin, and Xiao Songyan.

They rode up on horseback, dismounted, and each of them took out a top-grade spirit stone and handed it to me.

The top-grade spirit stone is completely translucent with a restrained radiance. It feels heavy and warm in the hand, and the warmth spreads from the fingertips throughout the body.

My nose started to sting: "You guys..."

Gu Zhining stepped forward and hugged me tightly: "You must come back and visit often when you have time."

With tears welling up in my eyes, I nodded and said, "Yes."

Gu Zhining released me, took a step back, mounted her horse, and said with a carefree air, "Let's go. When space tears apart, the gale will rip mortals apart; we can't stay any longer."

She turned her horse around, facing away from me, and waved.

Gu Zhaoye, Yang Lingshu, Yang Xiaolin, and Xiao Songyan also waved to me before riding away.

The sound of hooves faded into the distance, the figure grew smaller and smaller, and finally disappeared at the end of the mountain path.

I stood there, looking at the five top-grade spirit stones in my hand, speechless for a moment.

The things I gave away, after going around in circles, ended up back in my hands.

No more, no less, five top-grade spirit stones are just enough to give to all of us.

I took a deep breath, suppressed my sadness, and embedded the spirit stone into the core of the formation.

The array patterns instantly lit up with golden light, and the halo spread across the entire hunting ground.

I sent everyone back one by one.

The golden light flashed and faded, and figures came and went in a hurry.

As Suning left, he was still calling out, "Come back soon!"

Yan Chuan: "I'm going back to stew some braised pork first!"

Murong Zhuo: "I'll make the robes as soon as I get back!"

Gu Chenguang: "The biography title remains unchanged!"

Shen Qingchen nodded and left.

Finally, only Fu Yan and I were left outside the formation, waiting for Mother.

I waited for a while.

I looked up at my brother: "Brother, don't you really want to go back to Xianmengju? You've lived there for fifty years."

My brother gazed into the distance, remained silent for a moment, then smiled: "Next time."

He paused, then added, "And Mother didn't go back either."

I exclaimed in surprise, "Huh? Didn't she say she was going back to get something?"

My brother patted my head: "She just went shopping."

"What should I buy..." I started to say, then suddenly realized, "Oh~ soup dumplings!"

My brother nodded.

Just then, my mother came back.

His hands were empty; he hadn't taken anything.

My mother glanced at us and said, "Let's go."

Me: "Mom, where are your things?"

My mother said, "Take it."

Me: "Where?"

My mother: "In your sleeve."

I looked at her sleeves; they were empty, nothing at all. They must be in her storage bag, which she didn't want us to see.

My brother was trying not to laugh.

I've decided not to ask anymore.

After seeing my brother off, my mother picked me up and carried me into the formation.

I leaned against my mother's chest and closed my eyes.

Down the mountain, the coastline of the mortal realm was still being rebuilt, the people were still setting up camp, and the lingering fragrance of the banquet still wafted through the imperial garden.

But I know I will come back.
