Everyone's all smiles on the surface but secretly cunning, but the junior sister only wants to

Inside the Xuan Tian Sword Sect's leader's room, a man in a blue robe was pacing around, sometimes frowning, sometimes smiling, as if he had encountered some thorny problems or thought of something interesting.

Later, perhaps having figured something out, he flashed and arrived at Tianyan Peak, heading straight for Elder Yun Che's room. Just as he was about to knock, Yun Che inside spoke: "Sect Leader, come in. No need to knock, I'm afraid I'll disturb my little disciple's rest."

Upon hearing this, the man outside the door paused, his outstretched hand suddenly halting. He then awkwardly withdrew it, placing it at his side. (Author's note: Modern clothes are so much better; at least you have pockets to put your hands when you're feeling awkward.) He then pushed open the door and entered the room.

The man in blue sighed helplessly, pushed open the door, and stepped inside with an awkward yet polite smile. He looked at Yun Che and said softly, "Junior Brother Yun Che, I heard you found a little disciple while you were traveling. Is that true? Where is she? Let me see her!"

Yun Che looked up at the man in blue, a faint smile playing on his lips. He nodded and replied softly, "Senior Brother Yun Ting, you're quite well-informed! You found out so quickly that I've taken on a sweet and cuddly little disciple? Yes, that's true. However, she's injured and currently unconscious."

Upon hearing this, Yun Ting's expression changed slightly. He quickly walked to the bed and looked down. Lying on the bed was a small figure, appearing to be only four or five years old. She was petite and delicate, with an exquisite and adorable face, like a porcelain doll. However, her face was unusually pale, and her brows were tightly furrowed, as if she were enduring immense pain.

"What! Injured? Let me see!" Yun Ting said urgently, quickly walking to the bedside and carefully observing the baby's condition.

Yun Ting slowly sat down, gently placing his hand on the baby's slender wrist, and began to carefully take her pulse. As time passed, his tightly furrowed brows gradually relaxed, because the pulse indicated that the baby's vital signs had stabilized, at least temporarily out of danger. However, he also noticed that the baby's physical condition was still very weak, requiring careful recuperation to recover her health.

Even more puzzling, Yun Ting sensed that the baby's heart meridian seemed to be blocked by some mysterious force, as if a powerful seal existed within it. This was an extremely rare occurrence, causing Yun Ting to fall into deep thought. He speculated that this seal might be protecting the baby's heart meridian, but it also restricted her spiritual root.

“Junior Brother Yun Che, your little disciple actually has a seal hidden within her body. It seems to be protecting her heart meridian, but it also binds her spiritual root. If she wants to embark on the path of cultivation in the future, she will probably need to put in more effort and sweat than ordinary people,” Yun Ting explained to Yun Che with a solemn expression.

Yun Che nodded slightly, indicating his understanding. He looked at Yun Ting gratefully, secretly rejoicing that he had found such a learned and experienced senior brother. Although Yun Ting's words were somewhat heavy, Yun Che was not discouraged. He firmly believed that as long as he taught diligently, his little disciple would definitely be able to overcome difficulties and become an outstanding cultivator.

"Don't worry, Senior Brother, I've already prepared myself mentally. Even if she can't cultivate, I will do my best to take care of her, so that she can thrive in the sect and live a happy life," Yun Che said firmly. His gaze remained fixed on his little disciple on the bed, his eyes filled with tenderness and love.

Yun Ting knew his junior brother's personality well; once he made up his mind, he would never easily change it. Therefore, he could only go along with his junior brother's wishes. After all, the sect still had enough resources, and raising another child wouldn't be difficult. However, what he never expected was that this seemingly ordinary little baby would later do something earth-shattering, which was somewhat hard for him to accept.

"So, when do you plan to hold the apprenticeship ceremony? Will you wait until she wakes up to discuss it, or do you have other plans?"

"I want her to recover her health first, and then begin some basic cultivation. Since her spiritual root isn't outstanding, we need to find other ways to improve her strength. We'll hold a formal apprenticeship ceremony when she turns eighteen. Anyway, she's already been chosen as my Tianyan Peak's junior disciple, so there's no need to worry about gossip."

"Okay, you can decide for now. But you need to be mentally prepared. Tomorrow, your other senior brothers and sisters will definitely come to see your new apprentice. It's possible that your senior sister will try to take her away from you. Your senior sister Yun Yu really likes little babies, especially this soft and cuddly little apprentice you've taken in."
