Take your childhood sweetheart to cultivate immortality

When Liu Wenwen and his group arrived at the Tianyan Sect's headquarters in a carriage, it was already dark. They were arranged to stay in Uncle Qiu's courtyard, Qiufengyuan. The courtyard was planted with maple trees, hence the name Qiufengyuan.

Suddenly, I saw a man walking towards me with a lantern. When he got closer, I could see that it was the arrogant young man who was at the station that day.

Zhang Shi came over trotting: "I'm really sorry, I didn't know whether you were really disciples of the sect one day, I can only blame myself for being blind. I've come here today to apologize, I hope you little immortal masters can forgive me." After saying that, he bowed deeply.

Liu Wenwen and the others looked at each other, then looked at Uncle Qiu who was standing behind them. It would be a lie to say they weren't angry, but since the other party had admitted his mistake, it would be bad to ignore him. They gave Yan Qibei a look, and Yan Qibei stepped forward helplessly.

"It's okay, it's okay, ignorance is not a crime," Yan Qibei said kindly, holding up Zhang Shishou with both hands.

"I guess you haven't gone into the room to rest yet. It's all my fault. My last name is Zhang, and my given name is Shi. I'm a hired boy here. Usually, I clean the place. When the uncles need anything, I run errands for them, serve tea, and open the door. Now that you're here, I'll be responsible for your daily meals and living needs. If you need anything, you can tell me directly, and I will definitely do it for you." A hint of flattery and diligence appeared on Zhang Shi's youthful face.

Yan Qibei cupped his hands and said, "I'll have to trouble Senior Brother Zhang."

"No, no, I am not worthy of you calling me senior brother. I have no spiritual roots and cannot practice cultivation. That's why I can only be a little boy and serve as a cleaning boy." Zhang Shi scratched his head awkwardly.

At the Tianyan Sect base, Liu Wenwen finally had her own room and no longer had to squeeze into the same room with Arun and Yan Qibei. After taking a shower, she was still wearing the lilac dress with butterfly patterns. Seeing that her hair was almost dry, she picked up a hairband of the same color and went next door to find Shen Runze to ask him to help comb her hair.

When I entered, I saw that there was no one in the room. I wondered where he had gone. I walked behind the screen and suddenly saw Shen Runze fell asleep in the shower! Embarrassing.

I lifted my leg to go out, then turned around and thought, I might catch a cold. I touched the water and it was indeed cold, so I quickly took two steps forward.

She approached the bathtub, glanced into it, her face suddenly flushed, and she quickly patted Shen Runze's face: "Get up, the water is cold." After that, she ran out without looking back.

Shen Runze was suddenly awakened by the sound of Liu Wenwen's voice in a daze, and heard the sound of an urgent door closing behind him. He actually fell asleep while taking a shower. He was stunned for a moment, looked down, and quickly covered his hands. He was so embarrassed. Liu Wenwen was such a woman. She didn't even knock when she came in. Why did she come over when she was taking a shower? She didn't say a word when she came over.

Now that she's seen me, I'm so embarrassed. She wouldn't think I'm just like that... I quickly got up, put on my clothes, and dried my hair. I heard Uncle Qiu outside calling Yan Qibei to go out for dinner, and when I saw that I had almost finished packing, I went out too.

Shen Runze looked at Liu Wenwen who came out from next door at the same time. Her face was red and her eyes were darting around. It seemed that she had seen something she shouldn't have seen. Her hair was down and not in a ponytail. He sighed.

"Come here, I'll help you put on a simple bun."

Liu Wenwen looked up at Shen Runze, came over reluctantly, glanced at him from time to time, and said in a deep voice.

"Sit down!"

Liu Wenwen: “………………”

"Arun, Wenwen, hurry up, everyone is waiting for you." Yan Qibei shouted at the two of them while standing in front of the Qiufeng Courtyard.

"Okay," Shen Runze said and quickened his movements.

After combing their hair, the two walked towards Qiufeng Hall. They saw two other children beside Uncle Qiu. One was an eight-year-old boy named Tian Baozong, the other was nine-year-old named Erya, and the other was Yan Qibei. They didn't expect that these two were there too. Seeing that they were dressed neatly, they thought they were pretty good.

Liu Wenwen and Shen Runze came in and bowed together, saying, "Uncle Qiu," and then nodded to the other two children.

"Please sit down and talk while eating," Qiu Hebai said with a smile.

Liu Wenwen looked at Shen Runze, nodded, and sat down with a smile.

Qiu Hebai: "Master uncle is here to offer you a cup of tea, using tea instead of wine. Master uncle did not take good care of you, causing you to suffer a lot in the past few days." After saying that, he drank the tea in the cup in one gulp.

Liu Wenwen: "Uncle Master Qiu, there is no need to be like this. If there is any fault, it is the fault of those thieves. May I ask, Uncle Master Qiu, why do those thieves want to kidnap us? We are too young to be of much use. Are they going to take us back to be their disciples? If they want to be their disciples, why don't they go to the mortal world to recruit them themselves?" he asked curiously.

Qiu Hebai: "Although you are young, you have great potential. Moreover, I have selected all of you from the mortal world. You all have spiritual roots and can practice cultivation. Your souls, spirits, and blood are pure. You are the best choice for the evil demons to refine magical instruments and soul banners. As for why I don't go to the mortal world to recruit them myself, that's a better answer. In the mortal world, you may not be able to find one with spiritual roots among 100,000 people. The magic methods are quick to master, and they don't have the patience to do this. Therefore, they often snatch children with spiritual roots from the hands of spiritual practitioners to refine their own magical instruments or cultivate themselves."

After hearing this, the five children at the table were so frightened that their faces changed drastically.

Tian Baozong hurriedly asked, "Uncle Qiu, Li Erdan, and Mo Sang, were these two taken away to refine magical instruments?"

"I don't know. The deacons and I who were stationed there have been searching for several days, but we couldn't find them. You and Erya, you were lucky. We found them, but I couldn't. I think they either found their way back to the sect on their own, like Wenwen and the other three, or they fell into the hands of evil cultivators. I don't think it would be easy for them to fall into the hands of evil cultivators. This matter has been weighing on my mind for a long time. I feel uneasy," Qiu Hebai sighed.

"I've been with them before, and they're pretty smart. Nothing should happen to them," Li Erya said in a low voice.

"I hope so. Let's eat." Several people ate the food on the table one after another. Because of what they said just now, they had no appetite and didn't plan to eat anymore after eating some.

"You can go back and rest after eating. The sect has already issued an order. The sect election held every ten years has begun. Fengqing City will also have to conduct a screening, which will take about three days. After three days, we will set off together for Tianyan Sect. Senior Brother Ke will accompany us at that time, and it will be safer on the road. I will not be in seclusion these days. If you have any problems, you can come to me," Qiu Hebai said in a clear voice.

"Yes," the five people said in unison.

"Uncle Qiu, what about Li Erdan and Mo Sang?" Tian Baozong deliberately stayed until the last one to go, and asked Qiu Hebai while pulling him.

"I have sent a communication talisman to the sect. I think the sect will help find it. Don't worry," Qiu Hebai said as he touched Tian Baozong's head.

"Go back and have a good rest. The sect will handle these matters. You just need to rest well. We will set off for Tianyan Sect in two days and practice well from now on."

Tian Baozong: "Uncle Master, why can't we practice now? Wouldn't it be the same if you taught us?"

"You are only preparatory disciples now, not formal disciples. Besides, you will have special uncles and brothers to guide you in the future. Moreover, I only brought the Immortal Fate Stone to test whether you have spiritual roots. I don't know your qualifications yet, so how can I teach you rashly? Rest in peace."

"Go back."
