Success! Leng Ruoxue was beside herself with joy while looking at the small azure earrings in her palm, even though the grade of this piece of equipment wasn’t high—only at the treasured artifact grade.

“Not bad. You managed to refine an advanced treasured artifact on your first try.” Yu appeared from nowhere next to Leng Ruoxue. He then looked at the pills that his disciple had concocted. Although there were only elementary pills, their quality had reached the intermediate grade. Her talents even made him, her master, a little jealous!

“Disciple, Master’s experiences on alchemy and artificing over the many years are recorded here.” Ye handed Leng Ruoxue a jade slip.

“Master…”

“Disciple, you have already cultivated to the second level of the Heaven Defying Art. Your cultivation level now is akin to peak Spiritual Monarch. However, you will not be able to advance in Master’s space. After going out, you can find a place to advance, and then heaven and earth laws will descend. Heaven and earth laws are a gift from Heaven and shouldn’t be wasted.”

“Okay.” Leng Ruoxue nodded slightly as she quietly listened to her master’s instructions.

“Disciple, this Heaven and Earth Bracelet is a very powerful divine artifact with many functions, but I have sealed it. You will understand it when you slowly unlock the seal in the future. Now, the level of the Heaven and Earth Bracelet is equivalent to a treasured artifact of this world. There are only the three basic functions—planting space, time acceleration, and hiding your level—but they are enough for you currently.

“Disciple, Master accepted two disciples before you. They are your senior brothers. However, I passed away and don’t know what has happened to them. If you have the chance to meet them in the future, they will be a good help to you. Master also had very loyal subordinates, but I don’t know how they’re doing now,” Yu said with a helpless longing.

“Master, what do my two senior brothers look like?” Leng Ruoxue asked. She could hear the nostalgia in her master’s voice. As long as she had the opportunity, she would be happy to help her master find her two senior brothers.

“My good disciple, you are too weak now. I have sealed the things that happened back in the Heaven Defying Art. You’ll naturally understand when your cultivation reaches Master’s requirement,” Yu said resolutely.

“Master, you are not willing to tell me who the enemy is, but what should I do if the enemy finds me? I won’t know until the enemy comes to my door. Wouldn’t that put me in a very dangerous situation?” Leng Ruoxue said somewhat intensely. She wanted to know who her senior brothers were to ask who the enemy was in passing. However, her intentions were blocked by her master’s words before she could even ask him.

“Silly child, how could a master put their disciple in danger. Master has plans,” Yu said mysteriously, but he refused to reveal another word.

“Disciple, let’s go. The two little fellows are waiting anxiously,” Yu reminded.

“Big Sister.”

“Master.”

Seeing Leng Ruoxue come out, Baby immediately rushed into her arms and refused to leave. “Wuu wuu wuu… Big Sister, this person is so bad. He bullied Baby,” Baby complained.

Leng Ruoxue looked at her master in puzzlement, her beautiful little face full of question marks.

“Master gave this little fellow some special training,” Yu explained.

“Baby seems a little different!” Leng Ruoxue coaxed, even though she didn’t know what her master’s so-called special training was.

“Baby must protect Big Sister,” Baby said shyly.

“Disciple, Master is leaving,” Yu said reluctantly. He did not want to say it, but he knew his time was up.

“Master…” Tears blurred Leng Ruoxue’s beautiful eyes uncontrollably. She knew that her master was really going to leave her. Would Master not need to leave so soon if he hadn’t given me his spiritual power? She couldn’t help thinking in her mind.

“Silly child, don’t let your imagination run wild. All things come to an end,” Yu said a little sadly.

“Master…” Leng Ruoxue knew very well that her master was currently merely a wisp of divine sense and would leave her sooner or later. Even though she was unwilling to accept him as her master at first, after getting along for so long and having her cheap master do his best to impart knowledge to her, she had already regarded him as family. She couldn’t help but feel sad now that her master said that he was leaving her.

“Old Master…”

“Master…”

“Bad guy…”

Seeing the body transformed by Yu’s spiritual power disappear in front of them little by little, the three of them felt very uncomfortable. The atmosphere became depressed and gloomy, and no one spoke for a long time.

“Let’s go out!” Leng Ruoxue said after some time.

“Master, even though you’ve stayed here for almost five years, only five hours have passed outside,” the chubby little toddler explained thoughtfully, knowing that his master was afraid her family would worry.

Leng Ruoxue nodded and looked at the little toddler. “Do you have a name?” After coming in for so long, she had only focused on cultivating and still didn’t know his name.

“I don’t have a name yet. I was just able to manifest my body before being sealed,” the toddler said.

“I’ll name you Qing Jue then!” Leng Ruoxue said after some thought.

“Thank you for giving me a name, Master,” Qing Jue, the toddler, said happily.

“Call me Big Sister like Baby!” Leng Ruoxue said. She would feel guilty if a toddler called her master, as if she was engaging in exploiting child labor.

“Big Sister.” Baby looked at Leng Ruoxue with some annoyance. Someone came to snatch his big sister away.

Leng Ruoxue calmly caressed Baby’s soft fluff. Why is this little guy so possessive? She then left the bracelet with Baby in her arms.

After returning to her room, Leng Ruoxue saw the little flame lion, who was sleeping on her bed, looking for something with those big fiery-red watery eyes. After he saw her, his eyes released a ray of dependence, and he wanted to get close to her but dared not…

Leng Ruoxue looked at the little guy’s pitiful appearance and couldn’t help but laugh. This little thing was scared because Baby was in her arms!
