Demon Sword Immortal

"……childish."

Bai wanted to squint, but didn't intend to pay attention to their antics.

He thus reset the celestial calamities, the sun, moon, and stars, and restored the moral order of the human world to normalcy. Bai Xiang returned home to visit his blood relatives, wife, and children, and then began to bury himself in compiling new Qi cultivation classics.

This is because her current realm is too high. Under the influence of her divine soul and supernatural abilities, she has seen through the essence of all living beings in all realms. With her high-level perspective, she can naturally see the errors and omissions in all the Qi cultivation manuals in the past. In this situation, not correcting them is like asking an ordinary person not to take a bath for ten days or half a month, making their body and mind feel unbearably itchy.

This work has progressed very quickly, and the initial draft has been completed in less than three years.

That same year, Bai Zhuqing broke through to the Heyuan realm based on his insights from Guixu, and immediately reached the peak of that realm.

She ran to Bai Xiang and asked, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, there is something I don't understand."

Whenever she refers to herself as "your humble servant," it's basically a sign that she's up to no good.

Bai Xiang sat on the throne, closed his eyes to rest, and said, "Speak."

"I've read so many novels, and in them, when the protagonist breaks through to the highest realm, it has a huge impact that affects their bloodline and family. Why don't I feel that this is so obvious in us?"

Bai Zhuqing stared wide-eyed, feigning ignorance, as if to say, "Is there something wrong with the direction you're taking, sister?"

Where did she get these details from?

Bai opened his eyes and glared at her sternly.

Bai Zhuqing blinked and tilted her head.

However, she wasn't wrong...

Bai closed her eyes again.

According to the rules of this world, bloodline is also a cause-and-effect relationship. If someone else can reach this level, then all those who are related to him by blood, or even by cause and effect, will experience a complete sublimation of their life level.

This kind of sublimation is no longer as simple as improving cultivation level, physical constitution, or lifespan. Rather, they may all be completely elevated from the concept of the human race and become immortal spirits with innate blessings.

Without cultivation, without food or drink, one can be born and live for three thousand years. You call that human? Who would believe that?

Initially, this influence did indeed affect Bai Xi, Bai Zhengxuan, Bai Zhuqing, and even all members of the Bai family. However, Bai Xiang did not think it was a good thing for them to receive this blessing all at once, so he used his divine soul ability to remove this process.

"Why?"

After hearing what she said, Bai Zhuqing didn't quite understand, "This doesn't seem quite right..."

“Indulgence is what harms them.” Bai Xiang shook his head. “Things that are not obtained through their own hard work and cultivation, but are only given by heaven, will not be understood by them due to their profound principles.”

It's as if she can now control everything and even arbitrarily change all kinds of rules, but she still hasn't eliminated the demon race or eliminated many natural disasters that could kill people. This is following the same principle.

After explaining all this, Bai Xiang opened her eyes again to look at her sister and asked her, "That makes sense, but it does seem heartless."

Will you resent me for this?

"Of course not!" Bai Zhuqing exploded. "Let's not even talk about how we've already benefited a lot even without this blessing. Just take your previous restrictions on people with the surname Bai holding official positions. When did I ever say a single word against it?"

"Is that so?" Bai Xiang narrowed his eyes, clearly flirting with her again. "I don't quite remember, Your Majesty."

Showing off again!

Bai Zhuqing threw a punch in anger.

What level of cultivation do you possess? How could you not remember?

"Sister, you really look down on people!" she said through gritted teeth as she lunged at her. "I was just looking for an excuse to bother you, and you've given me this kind of impression!"

"Eat my punch!"

"I want to pour all my stardust into your palace sea again!"

Oh……

Bai Xiang hadn't intended to pay any attention to her fancy but ineffective moves, but upon hearing the last sentence, he narrowed his eyes and snapped his fingers in the air.

call--

A small golden sword flew in from outside the palace like a sycophant. When the blade was halfway there, it stretched out according to Bai Xiang's wishes, turning into a golden rope that wrapped around the palace girl and bound her tightly.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu?"

Moreover, he thoughtfully wrapped several ropes around her head to gag Bai Zhuqing, causing her to be bound and fall headfirst into Bai Xiang's arms, limply and weakly arching back and forth.

"Skin?"

Bai wanted to pinch her delicate chin, his scrutinizing gaze sweeping over her.

"Are you still skinny?"

"Waaaah (just being naughty)!"

"Stubborn enough." Bai Xiang raised an eyebrow. "I like it very much."

She placed Bai Zhuqing on her lap, face down and buttocks up, first posing as if to punish her by spanking her, then suddenly removed a pair of red wooden clogs, exposing the girl's small feet covered in white silk stockings.

"Woo?"

Bai Zhuqing stared wide-eyed.

This familiar feeling!

Or do you mean...?

Bai Xiang didn't bother with any more words. He reached out and grabbed her two little feet, then immediately activated the Vibration Technique.

A few minutes later, the girl in palace attire had a dazed look in her eyes and was trembling all over, only able to let out a series of aggrieved cries from her throat.

Bai Xiang then untied her and lifted her almost exhausted sister onto his lap, continuing to ask her, "Still being naughty?"

Bai Zhuqing glared at her fiercely, but dared not say another word. She just muttered under her breath, "You mean sister, you're so mean, you only bully me!"

"Do you like it when I bully you?"

"..."

"You're not going to tell, are you?"

"I said!"

Seeing Bai Xiang pinch her foot again, pressing her big toe into the sole, Bai Zhuqing trembled and quickly became obedient, lowering her eyes and flattering her: "I like... I like it when you bully me, sister..."

"That's pretty much it."

Bai Xiang squinted, feeling refreshed.

“However…” Bai Zhuqing drawled out the last syllable, then suddenly raised it at the end: “I also like to bully my older sister!”

"watch out!"

As the Qi flowed, the golden ropes that had bound her suddenly loosened and wrapped around Bai Xiang's body like vines, binding her in the same way.

Especially her long legs in black stockings beneath the dark robe, tightly bound from knee to ankle, resembled two intertwined black snakes, exuding a mysterious aura almost like the Dao.

"Little Huang has really gotten bold."

"I actually played along with your self-inflicted suffering."

Such a petty trick could not possibly trap Bai Xiang, but when she looked up and saw the infatuated look in her sister's eyes, her heart stirred, and her desire to break free completely faded away.

So, after the overall situation was settled, I never shared a room with her.

She's always busy with those things; it's a miracle she's been able to endure it for so long.

"so."

Having made up her mind, Bai Xiang slightly shook her head, making her hair on her forehead look a little messy, thus diluting her dignified aura. Then she leaned her body against the inside of the seat, curled her legs up, and looked at her sister with a provocative gaze.

"...Do you still want to touch my feet?"

This scene was no less than dropping a nuclear bomb on a young girl's heart.

Knowing that her thoughts had been discovered and that her actions had been tacitly approved by her sister, she could no longer suppress her longing and pounced on her like a raging torrent.

Time flows like water, carried by the wind.

Three years have passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, Bai Xiang personally led the Bai family members, along with his sister and two daughters, back to the ancestral land of Shenming, and personally presided over the ancestral worship and Fengshan ceremony.

The ceremony was elaborate and the process was lengthy, so I will omit the details here. Instead, I will only discuss how, after the Fengshan ceremony, Bai Xiang's family once again toured the garden with Bai Shengju.

"You two have some sense, don't get in the way."

Bai Zhuqing grabbed one of her two daughters by the ear and led them closer to the pool in front, leaving the two behind some space to be alone.

"Without realizing it, I have witnessed your great achievements, Xiang'er."

Bai Shengju walked along, sighing with emotion.

"Although I don't know your current cultivation level, I guess... you should already be at the Tai Xuan level, right?"

This isn't actually that hard to guess, after all, Bai Xiang's achievements are there for all to see, and the book she later compiled is called "Tai Xuan Sword Scripture." Although she has kept it hidden and never released it, it's enough for Bai Shengju to make some guesses.

"more or less."

Bai Xiang habitually wanted to be polite.

"My journey has been inseparable from my grandfather's guidance and support."

This wasn't entirely out of modesty; Bai Shengju provided all the resources for her cultivation in the early stages of her cultivation. At that time, the Bai family was considered moderately wealthy, but they were far from being able to freely provide precious medicines for people to cultivate. Many of the medicinal herbs were picked out and saved by Bai Shengju. In addition, considering the kindness of being adopted, Bai Xiang still held Bai Shengju in high esteem.

"With your talent, what's the point of my help?"

Bai Shengju laughed, "You're just too polite! I don't think anyone in the family treats me this respectfully except for you."

As time goes by, societal customs also change. Many old-fashioned etiquettes are no longer popular. Some children in the clan would jump on Bai Shengju's knees and pull his beard when playing with him. Indeed, as he said, the only people in the family who still respect him so strictly and earnestly are Bai Xiang and his ilk.

"You're leaving, aren't you?"

He suddenly asked this question out of the blue.

"You've arranged everything. With your current level of cultivation, it's really boring for you to stay in this position. I don't think you have any interest in dealing with worldly affairs anymore..."

"I know that you never liked your current identity from the beginning, so I'll just ask you one question: will you come back in the future?"

At this point, Bai Shengju stopped and looked up at Bai Xiang.

"Will do."

Bai Xiang kept his eyes fixed on the dense forest ahead, his expression unchanged.

"Grandpa can think of it as me going on a trip."

“My roots are here.”

"I will come back if there is a need here."

"That's it..."

Bai Shengju smiled.

"If that's the case, then I can finally relax..."

Such words and tone were hard not to overthink, and Bai Xiang, with his cultivation, had seen through some of the information. He couldn't help but suggest, "Actually, I could..."

"Need not."

Bai Shengju interrupted her.

"I don't need your help."

Bai Xiang pursed her lips and scrutinized him.

"Humans are born, grow old, get sick, and die; the moon waxes and wanes. I see that your aspirations are just like that, so of course I can't possibly break your resolve and make you make an exception for an old man like me."

Bai Xiang remained silent, simply letting Bai Shengju change the subject and chat with her about family matters.

"Isn't Qing'er very unruly?"

"Xi'er is more like her, but she has more sense of propriety, which is very much like you."

"Xuan'er is just like you when you were little. They've both grown up a lot in the last two years. Maybe I'll see them achieve something before I go. Thinking about it that way, I have no regrets."

As Bai Xiang spoke, his eyes pierced through the ripples of time, revealing a vision of Bai Shengju's future.

Indeed, the old man had only recently broken through to the Divine Path and should still have a considerable amount of lifespan left. However, on the one hand, he had previously fought against the Divine Path, which had somewhat depleted his lifespan. On the other hand, a mere thousand-year increase in lifespan was nothing in this era where time was becoming increasingly long.

Bai Shengju has had enough of living; he can see his future laid out before him.

He said these words to Bai Xiang early on because he knew that Bai Xiang might not wait until that time.

If he doesn't say these things now, he won't have the chance to say them once Bai Xiang leaves.
