After Xiao Yimo left, Lu Chuan'an stepped forward first, patted Tang Xinyan's head, and said with emotion:

"Congratulations on your Foundation Establishment, Junior Sister. It's been three years since we last met. You've grown quite a bit taller and even more beautiful."

Tang Xinyan obediently called out "Second Senior Brother," at which point Gu Moxu suddenly leaned closer, picked Tang Xinyan up, and said with a wicked smile:

"Since Master took in Junior Sister, this is only the second time I've seen her. Junior Sister, it's been so many years, have you forgotten your fourth senior brother?"

After Tang Xinyan became Gu Moxu's disciple, he was away and did not return. When Gu Moxu returned, Tang Xinyan was in seclusion.

Thinking that she had been a disciple for six years, yet the two had only met twice, Tang Xinyan suddenly understood what it meant to cultivate immortality without regard to time.

However, although Gu Moxu hadn't shown up, he had given her quite a few things over the years, and Tang Xinyan quickly shook her head:

"How could that be? Although my fourth senior brother is not here, he has always been thinking of me. I haven't thanked him yet for giving me so many good things."

Ji Zeyang leaned forward, his tone sour:

"When your third senior brother gives you things, why don't you thank him? But you're so obedient when it comes to your fourth senior brother."

Tang Xinyan was speechless:

"Third senior brother, how can you lie through your teeth? I clearly thanked you every time and even gave you delicious flower cakes."

Gu Moxu then looked at Ji Zeyang provocatively and chimed in:

"Junior sister, some people just don't know how to be content. We don't need to pay attention to them. In the future, if there's something good to eat, we won't give it to that ungrateful wretch."

Ji Zeyang was so angry he wanted to bite her, and suddenly stepped forward to try and snatch Tang Xinyan away. Gu Moxu was prepared and instantly teleported away.

Ji Zeyang missed his target, but his competitive spirit flared up instantly. The two of them had entered the room one after the other, and their cultivation had always been a race to outdo each other.

Seeing Gu Moxu easily dodge the attack, it seems he underwent special training in the Demon Realm, and his cultivation level appears to have surpassed his own...

The two chased each other around the main hall, while Tang Xinyan, held in Gu Moxu's arms, was utterly speechless, feeling like a giant toy.

Lu Chuan'an frowned and prepared to take Tang Xinyan away, but Yun Xingnan beat him to it, expressionlessly stopping Gu Moxu and the other person, and then took Tang Xinyan away.

The two of them stood stiffly, casting pleading glances at Lu Chuan'an, but Lu Chuan'an completely ignored them, and followed Yun Xingnan back to their seats.

Yun Xingnan took out a plate of pastries from his spatial storage and placed it in front of Tang Xinyan, saying softly:

"Junior sister, have a taste. This was bought from the demon race by your senior brother."

Looking at the pastries that exuded a subtle spiritual aura, Tang Xinyan picked up a piece and put it in her mouth. The soft, sweet, and fragrant texture satisfied her greatly.

She quickly swallowed the pastry in her mouth, smiled, and thanked him.

"Thank you, senior brother, it's delicious."

Yun Xingnan slightly curved his lips and continued:

"Tomorrow you'll be going to the Sword Tomb to choose your natal sword. Your senior brother will explain the key points to you. Generally speaking, the deeper into the Sword Tomb you go, the higher the grade of the swords stored there are."

However, this only applies to swords that haven't developed a sword spirit. Swords that have gained consciousness will have their own temperament.

They might not follow the rules, and could even be mischievous, teasing those entering the Sword Tomb. So, Junior Sister, you'd better be careful.

Lu Chuan'an handed Tang Xinyan a bottle of spirit flower honey water and chimed in:

"That's right. Your senior brother's sword was encountered as soon as he entered the Sword Tomb. At that moment, there was a very strong sense of affinity."

Fortunately, thanks to his senior brother's prior guidance, he did not overlook the lingering attachment in his heart and stubbornly persist in his pursuit of the sword deep within the Sword Tomb.

You must understand, any sword capable of developing a sword spirit is no ordinary weapon; they are all incredibly proud, and if you hesitate, they will not choose you.

Yun Xingnan added:

"And most importantly, given Junior Sister's aptitude, she'll likely have multiple swords vying for her attention at the same time. But Junior Sister, please remember that you can only form a contract with one natal sword."

Never be greedy. Also, you can try to wield a sword you can't control, but you can't force it, otherwise your spiritual consciousness will easily suffer a backlash and be severely injured.

Tang Xinyan listened attentively, memorizing all their experiences. Although the book described the process of Liu Yinyin contracting her natal sword,

However, it didn't describe many rules, only highlighting how lucky the female protagonist was to have that extraordinary sword automatically recognize her as its master.

As for the original owner of this body, she was just a supporting female character. Although she had entered the Sword Tomb, the sword she obtained was just an ordinary sword, without even a sword spirit.

Tang Xinyan felt that, besides the fact that the female supporting character was a character, the fact that no one explained the rules to the original owner also played a part.

After explaining everything that needed to be noted, Yun Xingnan and Lu Chuan'an ignored the two who were "punished" by standing in the corner, escorted Tang Xinyan back to her residence, and then went back to their own cultivation.

Poor Gu Moxu and Ji Zeyang were frozen in the main hall for a whole day, only to have the immobilization spell finally wear off on its own.

Xiao Yimo summoned the two to the summit, sealed their spiritual power, and punished them by making them climb the mountain carrying heavy loads, ostensibly to expend their abundant energy...

********

The next day, Xiao Yimo brought Tang Xinyan to the Sword Tomb. Upon seeing Xiao Yimo, the elder of the Sword Tomb quickly stepped forward and bowed.

"Supreme Elder."

Li Le and Wu Qi, who had accompanied their disciples, also hurriedly stepped forward to greet the elder of the Sword Tomb. The other disciples, seeing this,

They all hurriedly followed behind their respective masters, bowing to Xiao Yimo. Xiao Yimo nodded slightly, and after everyone stood up,

Xiao Yimo looked at the Sword Tomb Elder and said calmly:

“My Yan Yan has already reached the Foundation Establishment stage, so I brought her here to choose her natal sword.”

Xiao Yimo's words seemed aloof, but those familiar with him would surely detect a subtle pride beneath.

Elder Jianzhong was somewhat surprised. If he remembered correctly, this Supreme Elder's little disciple was only accepted into the sect six years ago, right?

Unexpectedly, he had already reached the Foundation Establishment stage in just six years. Quickly suppressing his astonishment, Elder Sword Tomb hurriedly responded:

"Yes, Elder, your little disciple is indeed exceptionally talented. However, the time is not yet right, so we will have to trouble you and Junior Sister Tang to wait a little longer."

The Sword Tomb is open to Foundation Establishment disciples of the sect at specific times on the first and fifteenth of each month. Xiao Yimo knew the rules and nodded slightly.

Li Le and Wu Qi, standing to the side, were extremely envious. Back then, they were the ones who had their eyes on this kid and wanted to take him under their wing. How did they get snatched away?

Seeing that the time was almost up, the Sword Tomb Elder cast a spell, embedding the token into the groove of the Sword Tomb gate, accompanied by a series of "boom" sounds.

The heavy gates of the Sword Tomb slowly opened, and Xiao Yimo looked at Tang Xinyan, carefully instructing her:

"Yan Yan, don't be nervous. Just do as your senior brother and the others said. Once inside, choose carefully. If there is any danger, use the communication jade token. Your master will wait for you here."

"Yes, Master."

After bowing to Xiao Yimo, Tang Xinyan walked resolutely into the Sword Tomb. The disciples from the other two peaks followed suit.
