Starting with an orphanage, I mass-produced peerless empresses.

Outside the city beyond the boundary, there stands a special inn called: Heaven and Earth.

Inside the top-tier guest room, Thunder Sword Emperor was taking a bath while enjoying a massage from the slender fingers of a beautiful woman behind him.

Not long after, just as he was about to show his prowess, a talisman flew in from outside the window and floated in front of him.

[The remnants of the Bai family are in the city beyond the boundary. Senior, go and kill them immediately! A reward of one thousand Xuanjing will be given!]

Thunder Sword Emperor frowned.

"It's so annoying, I have to work overtime even on a holiday."

The woman behind him asked reluctantly.

"Senior~ Do you need to cancel your VIP overnight massage package?"

Thunder Sword Emperor frowned, then smiled.

"Forget it, killing a piece of trash is nothing for me, I don't need to lift a finger."

After saying that, he took out a communication talisman and sent it out.

Then he turned around and looked at Bai Lian with a wicked grin.

"Little vixen, today I'll have to give you a good workout..."

……

Inside a tea shop in a city beyond the borders.

The woman in green knelt on a prayer mat, exuding an ethereal air, and carefully brewed tea.

Before long, a message talisman flew in from afar.

[The remnants of the Bai family are in the city. Find them and eliminate them for me. The usual price: 100 Xuanjing.]

A portrait of Bai Xiaoxue was also attached to the communication talisman!

"That old bastard, he's giving me this kind of small order again..."

For someone as powerful as the Jade Sword Queen and the Queen of Assassins of the City Beyond the Boundary, this amount of money is utterly useless; she'd be better off having ten times more.

Besides, I still have a little girl to look for.

Without a second thought, she took out a communication talisman and sent it out.

……

Not long after, a local gang in the city...

The leader looked sullen as he stared at the communication talisman in front of him.

[The remnants of the Bai family are in the city. Help me eliminate them, and I will reward you with ten Xuanjing afterward.]

"That's incredibly stingy."

The leader's lips twitched slightly, but considering the other party's identity, he dared not refuse.

Suddenly, an idea struck him!

……

Inside the outlying orphanage.

Bai Xiaoxue gripped the cheap iron sword, sweating profusely as she practiced swordsmanship with methodical precision.

Since she was able to cultivate, she has spent almost all her time practicing swordsmanship, except for doing housework or cooking. She is extremely diligent!

With the added 999-fold amplification, Bai Xiaoxue's swordsmanship is absolutely invincible in the Qi Condensation Realm!

"Alright, Xiaoxue, let's stop for a bit."

Lin Yun walked over from a distance and handed her a dry towel.

"Look at you, covered in sweat. Practicing swordsmanship is good, but don't overexert yourself."

Bai Xiaoxue sheathed her longsword, her expression resolute.

"It's alright. I want to become stronger faster so I can protect myself and not be a burden to you, Dean!"

She didn't mention revenge, mainly because she didn't want the dean to get involved.

"Look at you, here you go again."

Lin Yun patted her head and said softly.

"Once you're here, you're family. What's the big deal about being a burden?"

"Um……"

Bai Xiaoxue felt the warmth of family from the other person.

Her resolve hardened; she was determined to become stronger as soon as possible so that she could repay the dean in the future!

Bai Xiaoxue picked up a towel, wiped her sweat, and smiled.

"By the way, Dean, we've run out of food at home. I'll go buy some later."

Since she joined the family, she has taken over all the housework and cooking, almost turning Lin Yun into a useless person.

Lin Yun understood that she wanted to repay him, so he let her do as she pleased.

"No problem, but remember to change your clothes before you go out."

Bai Xiaoxue was taken aback and asked in confusion.

"Change clothes? Why?"

Lin Yun coughed lightly and pointed at her.

"what?"

Bai Xiaoxue was slightly taken aback, and when she looked down, she was instantly stunned.

"what!!!"

Bai Xiaoxue cried out in surprise and quickly reached out to cover her body.

When she looked at Lin Yun again, her face flushed.

"Dean! Why didn't you say so sooner!"

Lin Yun said helplessly, "I thought you knew it yourself."

"..."

Bai Xiaoxue blushed and ran away as if fleeing.

She hadn't gone far when, seemingly sensing her resentment, she turned her head away in shame and indignation.

"Dean, you...you big bad guy!"

After thinking for a long time, she managed to utter this sentence.

Then she jogged away, which actually looked kind of cute.

Lin Yun was both amused and exasperated. This little girl was indeed a lady from a prominent family; the aggression in her insults was quite something, and her manners needed to be improved!

However, Bai Xiaoxue is not old, but she has already grown up.

"I need to take her to buy two sets of underwear in a couple of days."

After all, as you get older, you need to prepare for many things.

However, Lin Yun has an even more important and extremely troublesome matter at the moment: choosing a second orphan.

He has been wandering around the city lately and has seen many orphans, but most of them are small wall lamps, so it would not be appropriate to take them.

If I were to actually accept it, who knows what kind of trouble it would cause me?

"Oh God, can't you just send one down from the sky for me?"

Lin Yun sighed, deciding to take another look and lower his standards if necessary...

Even if I lower my standards, I must never change my kind heart, lest I need to treat my low blood pressure later on...

Bai Xiaoxue took a bath, changed into a new dress, and then went out with her basket.

When they arrived at a secluded spot, Bai Xiaoxue suddenly frowned, as if she had noticed something.

"Huh? Someone's following me?"

As he took it out, he could vaguely sense several faint auras quietly following him, although they didn't seem to pose any threat to him.

Bai Xiaoxue immediately became alert.

Could it be that someone from the Zhao family has come looking for us?

Strangely, the person following them was too weak and didn't seem like someone sent by the Zhao family.

"Could it be bait?"

After all, if the people sent by the Zhao family were not this weak, they would not be.

Although the Zhao family is not a super power, they still have a place on the continent, and it's impossible that they would only send such a weakling to hunt them down.

Meanwhile, the three figures following behind her were secretly delighted.

"The little girl the leader was talking about must be her!"

"Tsk tsk tsk, we three trainee assassins can finally be promoted to full-fledged assassins!"

"Great, and it's just a little girl with no cultivation, it's so easy!"

But as soon as he finished speaking, one of them looked as if he had seen a ghost.

"Wait, where did he go?!"

They then realized that the girl who had been in their sight just moments before had vanished without a trace.

"How is that possible? It was just here a moment ago!"

Just as the three were stunned, a childish yet cold female voice rang out behind them like a ghost.

"Are you three looking for me?"
