Possessed by my father, I was reborn and became the supreme ruler.

"I'm not in a hurry. Now that I know, I'm not in a hurry!" Bai Yueling said with a happy smile, "My mother has been talking about you for many years. A few years ago, she wanted to ask you if you wanted to go back with me to see her, but seeing that you still harbored resentment towards the Bai family, I didn't dare to ask rashly."

"Now that you're willing to come back with me, I'm willing to wait even longer, let alone two or three months!"

"It's just about the matter of losing one's cultivation and starting over..."

A look of worry appeared on Bai Yueling's face as she whispered:

"Senior brother, I know that what I said earlier was really disrespectful, but for some reason, I feel that something is not quite right in the sect lately."

"Of course I know I shouldn't doubt my master, but... but..."

"Ling'er, don't say anything more about this." Ye Yunjian looked at the worry on Bai Yueling's face, feeling both bittersweet and relieved.

The last time, before Bai Yueling set off to go home, she had talked to him about these things, but he not only didn't listen, but even scolded her harshly.

Little did they know that it would be the last time they saw each other.

This time, he will absolutely not allow such a thing to happen again.

With a wave of his hand, he created a soundproof barrier around them before speaking:

"Ling'er, I'm only telling you this in secret. Remember not to tell anyone else."

"I've had my own suspicions about those things you mentioned. Situ Jiuxiao is nominally the sect leader of the Xuanhuo Sect, and he's taken us disciples in, but from my observation, he has ulterior motives. However, without concrete evidence, we can't refute him. More importantly, none of us are his match. If we force a confrontation, we'll all suffer a terrible fate."

"So remember, you must be careful with your words and actions in the future. What you said earlier may have already reached Situ Jiuxiao's ears. I was afraid he would take action against you, which is why I asked you to postpone your trip home to visit your family."

"Furthermore, during your time in the sect, you should not be alone. Either move to live with the senior sister or move to live with me, in order to avoid any accidents."

Seeing the seriousness in his voice, Bai Yueling turned pale with fright and said in a panic:

"No, surely not? Although I don't quite understand what Master has done, he wouldn't want to kill me for this, would he?"

Since it hadn't happened yet, Ye Yunjian couldn't speak directly, so he could only continue to be vague:

"Just listen to me. We grew up together, I would never hurt you."

Fortunately, although Bai Yueling had some doubts, she always listened to him and obediently nodded:

"Senior brother, I'll do whatever you say. I'll go find Senior Sister to stay with later, but what about you here..."

"You don't need to worry about what's going on here," Ye Yunjian shook his head confidently.

"Even if Situ Jiuxiao has designs on me, he won't make a move against me anytime soon. Besides, I already have a plan, so you can rest assured."

Bai Yueling was still somewhat worried and was about to speak when Ye Yunjian quickly raised his hand to interrupt her, saying solemnly and earnestly:

"he came."

he came?

Who is coming?

Of course, it's Situ Jiuxiao who's here!

Upon hearing those familiar footsteps, Ye Yunjian was filled with anger and resentment.

However, he quickly calmed down and with a wave of his hand, removed the soundproof shield that was enveloping him and Bai Yueling.

The next moment, a dignified and deep voice came from outside the door:

"Jian'er, your master has come to see you!"

Bai Yueling suddenly turned around, her face full of panic.

Ye Yunjian quickly patted her shoulder to calm her down, then spoke in a surprised tone:

"Junior Sister, Master has arrived! Quickly go open the door for your Senior Brother!"

Bai Yueling swallowed hard before opening the door and calling out to Situ Jiuxiao with her head down:

"Master."

The door opened, and standing outside was indeed Situ Jiuxiao.

As Ye Yunjian watched Situ Jiuxiao stride in, the deep-seated hatred within him erupted like a volcano, igniting a raging fire in his heart.

Situ Jiuxiao, we meet again!

In this life, let's see if it's you who dies or I who dies!

No, in this life, it must be you who dies!

However, Ye Yunjian quickly regained his composure and silently warned himself:

We must not be impatient or impulsive. He is not our match yet. We must proceed slowly and deliberately and absolutely not reveal any weaknesses!

He squeezed his eyes shut, then looked up, his face wet with sweat, and said:

"Master, what brings you here?"

Situ Jiuxiao glanced at Bai Yueling casually, then turned to Ye Yunjian with a loving expression and said:

"I've come to see you. How are you feeling today?"

"I feel much better, thank you for your concern, Master." Ye Yunjian had calmed down by now and spoke with his eyes moist, just as he always had.

Situ Jiuxiao nodded, about to continue speaking, when he saw the medicine bowl that Ye Yunjian had placed aside. His expression immediately darkened, and he said:

"Jian'er, why didn't you drink your medicine? Didn't I tell you that you must drink your medicine on time and in the prescribed amount every day, and you absolutely cannot skip it?"

Just as Ye Yunjian was about to speak, Bai Yueling suddenly spoke first:

"Master, this is not my senior brother's fault. When I brought it over, I forgot to put it in a food box, so the medicine got cold."

"That's why I asked my senior to put the bowl aside, and I was going to pour him another one."

Situ Jiuxiao's attention was originally focused on Ye Yunjian, but upon hearing Bai Yueling's explanation, he quickly turned to stare at her.

Bai Yueling hadn't thought much of it before, but now she felt as if her soul was being stared at. She instinctively took a half-step back, forcing a smile as she said:

"Master, why are you looking at me like that? Is my hair messy?"

Situ Jiuxiao chuckled softly and said quietly:

"It's nothing. Master was just remarking that it feels like only yesterday. I didn't expect you to have grown up so much and even help brew and deliver medicine. You've really become sensible."

"By the way, I heard you say the other day that you were going home to see your mother in three days. This shows that you are a very pure and filial girl, which makes me very happy."

As he spoke, he slightly raised his hand, and a crystal-clear, shimmering purple pearl appeared in front of Bai Yueling.

Within the purple light of this precious pearl, three purple lightning bolts flickered slightly, actually containing the power of the Xuan Emperor!

"Master, what is this?" Bai Yueling asked in surprise.

Situ Jiuxiao smiled and said gently:

“The Xuanhuo Sect is far from the Bai family. In this chaotic world, your master has no time to send you home. You will have to go home alone, but I am still worried about you.”

"This precious pearl contains three bolts of my thunderous power. Each bolt of thunderous power possesses the might of my Xuanhuang. It can be used to save your life in case of danger. If you carry it with you, I will feel more at ease."
