Chapter 1041 “Group Breakthrough (4)”
With a faint smile, Bai Yan gradually came before Zheng Qi and his two brothers from the Holy Land.
“Shifus, it was the three of you who picked me up back then, for that, I will never forget your kindness and will do my best to help improve your strengths.”
These three have watched her come all this way in life, making them some of her most essential people in life. That’s including the fact that they’re unreliable on many occasions, but still… they are very much important to her!
“And …” taking a pause to organize her words, “You will always be the most important people in my world outside of Di Cang, Xiachen, and my brother Bai Xiao.”
Years of companionship, this feeling, how could others compare? Only by making them capable of protecting themselves could she go fight the Celestial Realm at ease!
Fortunately Bai Chang Feng wasn’t around to hear this, otherwise the old grandpa would have to go find a tiny spot to weep in silence.
“My dear,” Zheng Qi’s (first) voice choked as he reached out to rub the woman’s head. “When we picked you up six years ago, you were already the one and only family we have in this life.”
He and his brothers have no children, that makes the girl their unofficial daughter regardless of what others thought.
Bai Yan smiled at that and didn’t object to the idea because she felt the same way. Then without forgetting the rest, she turns to Zhongnan and Zhongbei of the Misty Fairy House: “Shifus, I want to thank the two of you for the care you gave me while at the Misty Fairy House. As long as I can walk down the path I chose, I will certainly take you along with me forward. I will never forget the kindness and care you’ve shown me during that period!”
What about the Spirit Realm?
What about the Celestial Realm?
One day, this big world will become one and become mine to rule!
The Zhong brothers were very much gratified over that promise. To these two who already lost a disciple in the past, having another so gifted and talented was the greatest fortune they could ask for.
“It’s getting late now and I believe the crowd have mostly dispersed. Come everyone, let’s begin. I will watch from the side as you all take the pill.” Taking two steps back, she carefully looks over the group in front of herself in case anything goes wrong.
Zheng Qi being the oldest of the Holy Land elders took the medicine first as the host here. The rest followed suit next and swallowed their pill respectively, letting the gushing force spew out of their bodies. Because of how violent the power was, none of them dared to wait and hurried into a meditative position to begin cultivation.
Sure enough, a thunderous rumble rocked the sky as soon as they did that while the dark looming cloud hovered above their heads, constantly snapping crackling streaks of light at the group beneath it.
Hauluo and her side of the group coped with the electrical strikes fairly well, however…. Zheng Qi and the other four elders didn’t fare so well in this case due to their old age. Before long, signs of faltering could be seen across Bai Yan’s five shifus as their bodies suffered and started to fail in supporting themselves.
Bai Yan noticed this change immediately of course. Hurrying over to Zhongbei who was the weakest of them all, she went ahead and pushed a nourishing pill into the old senior’s mouth to help restore the man’s strength. Relieved by the returning color, Bai Yan then went ahead to Qiu Shu Rong’s (third) side and did the same.
While the lady worked profusely to make sure the old timers were keeping up, Di Xiao Wan remains seated in front of the big peach tree nearby, her eyes flickering with curiosity the entire time as Bai Yan worked.
