It was as if the sun was asking, “Can you see me, Comrade Bai Yang?”

“We’re halfway through when we reach that cloud.” Xiao Bai turned to look at Bai Yang and Tao Ran and said leisurely, “Hang in there!”

Bai Yang’s vision went dark. His legs, which were shaking non-stop, could no longer support his well-fed body. He plopped down on the ground again.

Tao Ran looked at him with disdain. “Bai Yang, you shameful fellow, stay away from me. I don’t know you!”

Sigh! Xiao Bai sighed again. She had already sighed three times today because of Mr. Bai.

What Taoist followers were cultivating was one breath of true energy. They were the most fastidious. How could she simply sigh? Wouldn’t that waste her cultivation? It was not good.

“Why don’t you go down the mountain now?” She asked tentatively.

It was over! His daughter despised him for holding her back! The old father of the new era, Bai Yang, immediately raised his spirits. He absolutely could not let his daughter down!

“Help me up! I can still climb!” Bai Yang stretched out his hand towards Tao Ran. Wasn’t it just Mount Prosperity? If his delicate and weak daughter could climb, as a father, how could he say discouraging words?

Bai Yang’s heart was filled with sudden vigor. He was determined to take down Mount Prosperity today!

Trembling and staggering in fear, the old father, Bai Yang, finally climbed to the top of Mount Prosperity with his willpower. He could now vaguely see the outline of the Taoist temple.

Xiao Bai stopped and waited for them while they were resting. Bai Yang was panting. Finally, he regained his strength and was able to look around.

“Eh? What’s that?” He pointed at a small pavilion not far away that was revealed through the clouds. A few thick ropes stretched out from the small pavilion. From afar, it looked like a large snail.

“Oh, that.” Xiao Bai glanced at it. Mr. Bai was indeed very silly. He didn’t even know this. Forget it, it couldn’t be helped that he was her father. Therefore, she patiently said, “That’s the cable car station.”

“Why didn’t you tell me about the cable car?” Bai Yang’s tears flowed down again. He didn’t expect his daughter to cheat him.

“You didn’t ask!” Bai Jin didn’t expect Mr. Bai to be such a crybaby. Moreover, she was judging them based on herself, and she was doing it for the good of the Bai family. After all, there was a fee for taking the cable car!

“Forget it! I’ll just die of filial piety!” Bai Yang thought.

Life was not just about muddling along at present. There was also the distant Taoist temple! Bai Yang regained his spirit and set off towards the Taoist temple with his shaky legs.

Wow! The Taoist temple in front of him was quivering like his legs. He wondered if it could bear the heavy burden of life!

“Da-Qing-Lu, Da Qing Lu?” Bai Yang turned his head to look at Bai Jin. “The name of this Taoist temple is really… how do I put it? It’s otherworldly and very unique, huh?”

“It’s Taiqing Palace.” Bai Jin held back from rolling her eyes and explained patiently. “Some disobedient strokes had fallen off. Of course, you can’t blame the strokes entirely. After all, the temple is already considered a dangerous building. You have to be careful when you visit it later!”

This was the Taoist temple where his daughter lived? Boohoo. His daughter was truly too pitiful. She had lived in such a wretched Taoist temple for more than ten years. Bai Yang felt like crying again.

“Have you always lived alone?” Although Tao Ran had never given birth, she could not help but feel sorry for Bai Jin due to her natural maternal instincts when she saw the poor condition of the temple.

“I used to have a master, but he’s gone,” Bai Jin replied.

“Gone? Where has he gone to? I must bring him back so that he can enjoy his life!” Bai Yang asked anxiously..
