Going to Fox Hill was merely a matter of being moved by the scenery.
It's still more fun to be with Li Qing'an. She's been enjoying watching the secret conflicts between Qingyun Sect and Fenxiang Valley these past few days.
Not to mention the upcoming marriage proposal from Li Qing'an.
She was curious about how Xiao Ping'er and Xiao Yao Yao would react after the news got out, and whether they would come looking for Li Qing'an.
All of this made Xiaobai very curious.
It was during their conversation that...
Little Dumbass strode over angrily, his small body, barely 1.2 or 1.3 meters tall, exuding an air of authority.
"Are you even eating? Day after day, you make me, a child, cook all the meals. Is there no justice in this world?!"
Dressed as a little cook, the silly girl stood with her hands on her hips, glaring fiercely at the two of them.
Xiao Bai and Li Qing'an exchanged a glance, neither daring to speak as they were freeloaders.
It flew rapidly towards the kitchen.
As the two sped away, Xiao Daidai watched helplessly from behind.
Little Dumb, who hadn't even started his cultivation yet, was seething with hatred!
How could we forget about her, the one who made the cooking all the more amazing!
The next second, Little Dumb rose into the air and caught up with the two of them with a whoosh.
......
Xiaozhu Peak, Tian Ling'er's boudoir.
Tian Ling'er sat on the edge of the bed, her mind filled with sorrow.
Su Ru stood to the side, her expression shifting, unsure whether she should tell Tian Ling'er what Li Qing'an had said to her.
Because she knew that if she told Tian Ling'er, Ling'er would be overjoyed and happily agree.
But if Tian Buyi found out now, he would probably be so angry that he would vomit blood.
If they act first and inform others later, Tian Buyi will inevitably lose his temper when he returns.
I hope what Li Qingan said—that Dao Xuan would solve Tian Buyi's problem—is true.
Su Ru was somewhat inclined to favor her daughter.
After all, she knew that Tian Ling'er was already stuck in matters of the heart.
In addition, Li Qing'an can indeed be considered the most outstanding cultivator in the history of China over the past thousand years.
Her appearance and abilities are both exceptional.
If it had been a few hundred years earlier, she probably would have fallen into it too.
Strictly speaking, my daughter is actually marrying above her station.
Thinking of this, Su Ru said, "Xiao An, I plan to propose to Lu Xueqi first, and then find time to propose to you!"
"Do you want to?"
"Huh?" Tian Ling'er hadn't reacted yet, but gradually came back to her senses from her dazed state.
Her voice was filled with disbelief: "Mother, what did you say?"
"What did you say about Qing'an?"
Tian Ling'er asked a series of questions, her eyes sparkling, her expression somewhat excited.
Seeing her daughter's disappointing behavior, Su Ru sighed softly, rubbing her forehead.
She knew that Ling'er hadn't realized it yet, but once she did, she would still go to find Li Qing'an.
Who knows, a moment of impulsiveness could lead to a situation where three people end up together!
Then they forced her into a fait accompli and coerced Tian Buyi.
She knew very well how timid her daughter was.
So she repeated what she had just said.
"Wuhu—, Mother is the best!"
Tian Ling'er immediately jumped up and hopped around Su Ru.
"Mother, you can eat lunch by yourself. I'm going to find Qing'an!"
Overjoyed, Tian Ling'er was about to fly towards Tianzhen Peak.
Chapter 268 I treated you like a sister, but you want to be my teacher's wife?
Several days later, at dusk.
Suddenly, some disciples who were gathering information brought news that the Demonic Sect had gone mad and was actually using the combined strength of three sects to resist the Beast Demon.
The three factions of the Demonic Sect have suffered heavy casualties.
The southwestern region was in chaos, with monsters running rampant, and even the Death Swamp had seen many strange and monstrous creatures appear.
Moreover, it headed towards the inner swamp of the Dead Swamp.
I don't know what they're looking for.
In any case, all that was heard was a cry, and a battle broke out on the Heavenly Tree.
They quickly retreated, not daring to delay.
When the news reached the sect, Dao Xuan was not happy; instead, he became even more worried.
As everyone knows, the Demonic Sect consists of selfish and self-serving people. How could they possibly act in such a way, losing most of their disciples just to resist the beast demon?
You must understand, these righteous people would never have done this unless they were driven to the brink of despair.
This isn't just the fate of a few or dozens of disciples; it's the fate of hundreds or thousands.
The Demonic Cult will not recover for decades after this battle.
Dao Xuan had dealt with the Demonic Sect for hundreds of years, so he found this matter truly strange.
The demonic sect should have kept quiet and retreated behind the righteous path, letting the righteous path deal with those vicious beasts and demons; that's what they should have done.
Just as Dao Xuan and Pu Hong were speculating about the actions of the Demonic Sect.
Outside Qingyun Gate.
Where many righteous cultivators had gathered, a huge, fiery red shadow streaked across the sky at an astonishing speed.
"Look, what is that?"
"It looks like a bird!"
"A bird? What kind of bird could be that big?"
"I've heard that there are demonic beasts that have transformed into monsters in the southern borderlands. Could this bird be one of those demonic beasts?"
"Impossible. This bird exudes an auspicious aura; it's nothing like those monsters from the Southern Frontier."
“…”
The crowd was buzzing with discussion, but no one seemed too nervous.
If they can be in danger here within Qingyun Sect's territory, they might as well just send their heads to the Southern Frontier.
They simply sent someone to deliver a message to the Qingyun Sect, saying that an unknown giant beast was heading towards the Qingyun Sect.
The summit of Tianzhen Peak.
After the giant beast entered the Qingyun Sect's territory, Li Qing'an seemed to sense it and glanced in that direction.
Li Qing'an stood up, his expression shifting slightly.
The giant beast that appeared was the Xuan Bird that he had subdued.
For some reason, it actually emerged from the Dead Swamp.
Li Qingan didn't have to wait long before a huge shadow flew in with a gust of wind, and a faint, mysterious light could be seen, along with a giant bird's head.
Several Qingyun Sect elders followed behind, including several of the sect's top leaders.
"This is the Black Bird. It truly looks extraordinary and lives up to its reputation as a remnant of the primordial era!"
"I heard that my junior brother has tamed this black bird, and he's probably here to help Qingyun!"
“…”
The crowd was buzzing with discussion, while Li Qing'an approached the black bird.
The black bird cried out and lowered its head.
However, after only a few months apart, it could sense an even stronger aura emanating from the person in front of it.
Li Qingan glanced back at the pine and cypress trees that had been nourished by most of the spiritual energy of Tianzhen Peak. Although more than ten years had passed, they had grown extremely tall.
But it's still not possible to make the Black Bird a habitat.
There was no other way, so Li Qing'an could only make the black bird smaller before it landed on a lush, hundreds-of-zhang-tall pine and cypress tree.
After Li Qing'an settled the black bird.
Many righteous cultivators who had come to watch the spectacle followed the leader of the Qingyun Sect and set foot on the summit of the exceptionally mysterious Tianzhen Peak for the first time.
Pine and cypress trees cast shadows on the bamboo, the pool is deep and secluded, and a divine turtle carrying its shell can be vaguely seen. A stone pavilion sits in the middle, and three cups of steaming tea can be vaguely seen on the table.
There were two other people in the pavilion: a young woman in her early twenties and a girl in her early teens.
Upon seeing this child, who was only a dozen years old, everyone knew that he was Li Qing'an's chief disciple and the future leader of Tianzhen Peak.
As for the other one, I've never seen him before, but to be treated like this by Li Qing'an, he must be someone important.
"Junior brother, you have now acquired a divine beast, this is truly a cause for celebration!"
Zeng Shuchang was very familiar with Li Qingan, so he was the first to speak in front of so many people.
"Yes! Yes!"
"Chief Li is truly capable!"
