Fairy, I'm going to control you tightly!

At this moment, what lies before Xiao Jingxi—or rather, Ji Nanbei—is a plate of golden-yellow shrimp balls.

Ji Nanbei loved this dish even before he traveled there.

Unexpectedly, I was able to taste this dish after time travel.

Moreover, the ingredients used in these golden shrimp balls are all top-grade spiritual foods, which are incomparable to ordinary ingredients in terms of both taste and flavor.

Ji Nanbei also favored it greatly.

Ever since Xiao Jingxi realized this, during the time Ji Nanbei was away, the little sword immortal specifically instructed her maid to prepare this dish for breakfast every day.

In fact, apart from the previous time when he was summoned to the Tai Xuan Hall for a special meal, Xiao Jingxi usually ate breakfast in his own room.

Moreover, the Immortal Spirit Sword Sect only provides breakfast, not lunch or dinner.

Rather than calling it a meal, it's more accurate to describe it as a perk bestowed upon the sect's true disciples and inner disciples.

Outer disciples, that is, those at the level of maids, are not qualified to enjoy this breakfast.

The breakfast for inner disciples consists of ordinary ingredients, just common spiritual foods, which are beneficial to cultivation, but the effect is only so-so.

Only direct disciples can enjoy the best quality spiritual breakfast every morning.

However, the only one who can order food independently is probably Xiao Jingxi, the extraordinary little sword immortal.

Even though the little sword fairy insisted on eating golden shrimp balls every day, no one in the sect thought she was being arrogant or unconventional.

Such a beautiful little swordsman, all he wants to do every day is eat some golden shrimp balls, what's wrong with that?!

Ji Nanbei picked up a golden shrimp ball and put it in his mouth, a satisfied expression on his face.

Happiness can sometimes be that simple!

"Feed..."

The girl's voice rang out softly.

Ji Nanbei stopped what he was doing.

"What's wrong?"

Ji Nanbei was generally quite gentle with this adorable little sword immortal, except for the occasional teasing.

"We've known each other for so long, and I still don't know your name."

[Task triggered. Please choose one of the following three options to reply.]

Option 1: My name isn't Hey, it's Ji Nanbei! (Reward: 200,000 Magic Points, Grade 5 Spiritual Treasure "Blood Transformation Flying Knife".)

Option Two: I don't believe our relationship is close enough for us to exchange names! (Reward: 20,000 Magic Points, Grade 3 Secret Manual "The Divine Art of Controlling the Bedchamber")

Option 3: Make up some random answer. (Reward: 3,000 Magic Points, one random Grade 3 Spirit Talisman.)

Ji Nanbei glanced at the options and immediately understood.

To be honest, Ji Nanbei is almost used to this kind of thing happening again in option two.

In fact, Ji Nanbei noticed that the risk of his identity being exposed seemed to be gradually decreasing.

"My name carries a powerful curse; those who know it will bring calamity to this world!"

[Gained 3,000 Magic Points; the "Water-Repelling Talisman" has been stored in the system space.]

"Huh?! There's such a thing! No wonder you've been refusing to tell me your name."

Xiao Jingxi asked in surprise.

"Just kidding."

Ji Nanbei chuckled softly.

Xiao Jingxi was stunned for a moment, then realized what was happening.

"Ah! Why are you like this!"

Although it's a bit of a perverse hobby, teasing this adorable little sword fairy is indeed quite fun.

After finishing a whole plate of golden shrimp balls, Ji Nanbei didn't go to the backyard today, it seems he doesn't plan to cultivate.

"Huh? Aren't you going to train today?"

"Hmm, I'd like to find a few cultivation techniques to look at."

Because his cultivation level had improved too quickly, Ji Nanbei planned to slow down and try to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage later. He would use this free time to find some practical techniques.

At present, the only technique Ji Nanbei can use is "Two Shovelfuls Clanging"...

This won't do!

Instead of going to the sect's library, he started searching through Xiao Jingxi's books.

"The side room on the left contains some rubbings of martial arts techniques and sword manuals."

Xiao Jingxi pointed out.

As Ji Nanbei walked in, he saw two tall bookshelves.

The items displayed there were all precious, high-grade rubbings of martial arts techniques and sword manuals.

The vast majority of them are sword techniques.

Because Xiao Jingxi possesses the Glazed Sword Heart and has an astonishing comprehension of swordsmanship, Jian Qingcheng specially granted her permission to possess so many sword manual rubbings.

Reading through these sword manuals might allow one to gain insights into other areas as well.

After all, we can learn from others' experiences to improve ourselves.

Ji Nanbei glanced through the list and found that he couldn't really use the martial arts and sword techniques Xiao Jingxi had shared.

The sword manuals collected by Xiao Jingxi are mostly secret sword manuals of the Immortal Spirit Sword Sect, and are not to be passed on to outsiders.

Even if Ji Nanbei learned this kind of technique, he wouldn't be able to use it at all.

If he uses it and it gets out, Ji Nanbei's identity will be exposed immediately.

Moreover, it would provoke the entire Immortal Spirit Sword Sect.

Besides those secret scriptures, the remaining small number of sword techniques and martial arts also carry a distinct orthodox style.

Well...

It doesn't quite match Ji Nanbei's art style.

After all, he was still a member of the demonic path.

"Isn't there anything suitable? Shall we go check the sect's library?"

Xiao Jingxi asked.

Ji Nanbei shook his head, rejecting the suggestion.

Since the situation in the Immortal Spirit Sword Sect's library is probably similar to that here in Xiao Jingxi's place, let's think of another way.

As a result, Ji Nanbei was now free.

"How about we go for a walk?"

Gu suddenly suggested.

Xiao Jingxi paused for a moment, then said happily:

"Okay, I'll show you around the Immortal Spirit Sword Sect. There are many scenic spots in the sect."

So Ji Nanbei went out.

The Immortal Spirit Sword Sect was also built against the mountain, but its methods were more sophisticated.

Basic cave dwellings were carved out atop numerous peaks, and then, using a floating array technique, the various peaks were connected together in a structure resembling a pavilion in the sky.

The steps that appear to be paved with white jade are actually mostly made of marble, but they are infused with spiritual energy and supported by an array to form such solid steps.

About 70% of the buildings in the entire Immortal Spirit Sword Sect are suspended in mid-air, interwoven and connected between the mountain peaks.

In this way, the scenery of the Immortal Spirit Sword Sect naturally resembles the legendary fairyland.

In short, it's incredibly stylish.

As expected of the number one sect in the cultivation world.

Ji Nanbei's assessment was...

That hateful, extravagant sect!

Just as Xiao Jingxi was guiding Ji Nanbei to stroll and enjoy the scenery, someone noticed Ji Nanbei.

Ji Nanbei suddenly realized that he seemed to be being followed.

He frowned, somewhat puzzled.

This is the Immortal Spirit Sword Sect. Does anyone dare to harm Xiao Jingxi here?

As the other person approached, Ji Nanbei turned around, and then...

"Hello, senior sister!"

A group of girls dressed in blue or green clothes quickly surrounded Ji Nanbei.

Xiao Jingxi in his consciousness immediately came to a standstill.

Ji Nanbei just felt something was strange.

However, in response to the other party's polite greeting, Ji Nanbei still replied politely:

"Hello, junior sisters."

As Ji Nanbei smiled and greeted them with "Hello, junior sister," a low gasp of surprise instantly rippled through the group of girls.

Ji Nanbei: ? ? ?

Ji Nanbei asked in his mind: Are you usually this popular?

Xiao Jingxi: I'm not! I didn't! Don't talk nonsense!
