Xiao Yun was filled with shock, and when he looked at the goddess-like woman again, his pupils contracted.
This was because under the womanâs guidance, the Chilling Qi around Xiao LingâErâs body began to re-enter. Looking closely, one could see that the frost on Xiao LingâErâs face was starting to recede, as if the Chilling Qi had been subdued.
A short while after, Xiao LingâErâs complexion began to recover, and a slight rosy tint appeared on her face so that it was no longer pale white. Even her eyes seemed more spirited â evidently, she was gradually recovering her Essence Qi.
â Looks like this woman actually has some abilities, â Xiao Yun thought as he let out a sigh of relief.
âThis person most likely cultivates with a special method, which allows her to help your little sister guide her Essence Qi,â the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow explained. âIf I havenât guessed incorrectly, this woman should also have a Chilling-type constitution. Otherwise, itâs unlikely that she would have such an ability.â
âShe also has such a constitution?â Xiao Yunâs eyebrows unfurrowed as he thought of various possibilities. He was finally able to relax, knowing the womanâs reason for helping his little sister.
The woman in the palace dress continuously guided Xiao LingâErâs Chilling Qi. Evidently, this was a very long and arduous process, and wouldnât be able to be completely quickly. However, the Chilling Qi was less berserk now, and the process seemed more effective and gentler than Xiao Yunâs slow extraction.
Seeing this, Xiao Yun felt much more at ease. If this continued, his little sister should be safe. Following this, he started to use his Martial Spirit to absorb the remnant Chilling Qi within his body.
The Martial Spirit had absorbed large amounts of Chilling Qi this time, hundreds of times more than in the past.
When Xiao Yun sent his mind into his sea of consciousness, he found that the Chilling Qi sub-branch had developed a soft shoot, which looked like half a fingernail. Although it was quite small, it showed that Xiao Yunâs had once again become stronger.
In the future, when the soft shoot developed into a leaf, it would most likely be able to condense Chilling type dewdrops.
With a slight thought from Xiao Yun, the Martial Spirit emitted a jade-green light as a branch stretched out and absorbed the remaining Chilling Qi within his body. Only after 10 minutes or so was it able to completely rid Xiao Yun of the Chilling Qi, but the woman in the palace dress still had not finished.
Xiao LingâErâs Chilling Qi was simply too strong this time, and it was not until the sun rose on the next day that it was completely brought under control.
âItâs done.â The woman in the palace dress deeply inhaled and exhaled, looking incredibly tired as she let go of Xiao LingâErâs arm.
âThank you, big sister.â Xiao LingâErâs eyes were incredibly clear and her eyelashes were quite long, making her look like an incredibly cute porcelain doll. She was well-mannered and thanked the woman in the palace dress â she knew that if it wasnât for this person helping her, her situation would have been incredibly grim.
âHaha, this little girlâs quite thoughtful and intelligent.â The woman in the palace dress smiled as she stroked the young girlâs dark hair, saying, âLittle sister, do you want to leave with big sister? If you stay with big sister, you wonât have to suffer from the Chilling Qi anymore.â
âLeave?â Xiao LingâErâs eyes became hazy, seeming like she had never considered such a possibility.
âIf you leave with big sister, you can obtain a suitable cultivation method. You wonât have to suffer anymore, and you will free and unbounded. In fact, you might even become an unparalleled expert who can destroy mountains with a single hand,â the woman in the palace dress said as she smiled.
âBe free and unbounded? Xiao LingâErâs eyes lit up, her face full of hope and expectation. âReally?â
âOf course,â the woman in the palace dress affirmed. âWhy would big sister lie to you?â
âBut I donât want to leave big bro,â Xiao LingâEr said as she blinked and looked at the youth.
âYour big brother?â The woman in the palace dress looked at Xiao Yun as she slightly hesitated.
âBig sister, can you bring big bro as well?â Xiao LingâEr asked with a hopeful look.
âIâm afraid thatâs not possible,â the woman replied.
Why?â Xiao LingâEr asked as she frowned.
âItâs because not anyone can join the sect that big sisterâs part of,â the woman said. âOur Snow Heaven Sectâs cultivators all have Chilling type constitutions, and cultivate with Chilling type techniques. As such, your big brother wonât really fit in there.â
âSo itâs like that!â A disappointed look appeared on Xiao LingâErâs face. She pouted and lowered her head and said after thinking for a while, âThen I donât want to go. I donât want to be apart from big bro.â The little girl seemed to be incredibly determined not to be separated form Xiao Yun.
âYou donât want to go?â The woman in the palace dress was incredibly shocked. âDonât you know that if your source Chilling Qi breaks out again, without a suitable technique to guide it, thereâll be no one who can save you? Arenât you afraid of dying?â
âI just want to be with big bro,â Xiao LingâEr blinked as she spoke resolutely.
The woman in the palace dress tightly frowned. She never thought that the brother and sister would have such a close relationship. Xiao Yun was also quite surprised and felt quite touched.
âAre you her big brother?â the woman asked as she looked at Xiao Yun seriously.
âMm.â Xiao Yun nodded.
âDo you know that your sisterâs situation is quite serious?â the woman continued to ask.
Xiao Yun shrugged hopelessly, âNaturally.â
âThatâs good,â the woman in the palace dress continued, âYour little sisterâs body is special, and if she doesnât leave with me, itâll be unlikely that sheâll be able to live for more than half a month.â
After giving a slight pause, the woman added, âIf she leaves with me, not only will she be able to keep her life, but she can even become a powerful expert. Iâm sure you know what to do, right?â The meaning behind her words were clear â she wanted Xiao Yun to persuade Xiao LingâEr.
âAre you sure that my little sister will be treated well?â Xiao Yun asked as he raised an eyebrow.
âOf course,â the woman in the palace dress replied. âYour little sister has great potential, and will definitely be greatly nurtured by our sect.â
âThatâs good.â After hearing this from the woman, Xiao Yun let out a breath and walked over to the pouting girl. âLingâEr, be good and go with this big sister. In the future, big brother will come to find you, alright?â
âNo. I donât want to be separated from big bro.â Xiao LingâEr sadly blinked as she looked at Xiao Yun, almost sobbing as she said, âBig bro, do you think LingâErâs a burden, so youâre abandoning LingâEr? LingâEr doesnât want to be separated from big bro.â
âSilly girl, why would I abandon you?â Xiao Yun smiled as he stroked her glossy hair.
âBut I donât want to be separated from big bro. What if you donât come to find me in future?â The girl still wasnât willing to go.
The woman was wondering if she should also bring this youth and find a sect for him to join. However, seeing how dependent Xiao LingâEr was on him, she deeply frowned. If they stayed in the same place, she most likely wouldnât be able to focus on cultivating!
âWhy wouldnât I come to find you?â Xiao Yun frowned. Seeing the womanâs expression, he became slightly tougher with his words. âBe good, LingâEr, and listen to big brother. Go with this big sister, otherwise big brother will be angry.â
Xiao Yun didnât want his little sister to lose this opportunity â what if this woman in the palace dress lost her patience and decided not to worry about LingâEr anymore?
He simply didnât have the ability to sustain his little sisterâs life!
âMm, LingâEr will be good, but big bro has to come find me in future!â Seeing her big brother become slightly angry, Xiao LingâEr stopped resisting and blinked as she spoke with a tone of expectation. She looked so cute and lovely that anyone would feel reluctant to part with her.
Xiao Yun deeply breathed in as he said, âDonât worry; how could your big brother not come to find you? Youâre my dearest little sister!â
âMm.â Hearing this, Xiao LingâEr gave a blissful smile.
âWhere will you be going?â Xiao Yun asked the woman in the palace dress.
âThe Heavenly Capital Domainâs Snow Heaven Sect,â the woman replied.
âHeavenly Capital Domain!â Xiao Yun stared as he felt a slight tremble in his heart. He never thought that this woman was also from the Heavenly Capital Domain.
âThere are countless geniuses in the Heavenly Capital Domain, so if you want to go there and establish yourself, you need to temper yourself countless times. I hope youâll be able to safely arrive at the Heavenly Capital Domain,â the woman in the palace dress said. âItâs not early anymore, so we should get going.â
âDo we have to go now?â Xiao LingâEr looked extremely reluctant.
âMm,â the woman replied, âThe Heavenly Capital Domainâs incredibly far away, so we canât dally.â As such, Xiao LingâEr could only give in and pack her things, preparing to leave.
She didnât have much, so she only brought the pair of Violet Spirit Foxes. Back then, Xiao Yun had wanted to gift Yan Shi Yan one, but she had been jealous of her big sister, and ended up refusing it.
âBig bro, you have to come find me!â Xiao LingâEr said to the youth with some tears in her eyes.
âMm.â Xiao Yun nodded. Although he was very reluctant to part with his little sister, this was definitely the best choice for them. After all, if she went to the Heavenly Capital Domainâs Snow Heaven Sect, not only would she be able to keep her life, but she would also have the opportunity to cultivate. Where else could they find such a good deal?
Nearby, the Xiao familyâs old patriarch and the others all let out a sigh of relief. The girl could now finally have a future.
Yesterday, when the girlâs Chilling Qi had broken out, everyone had been incredibly worried, and was anxious that she would pass away!
âWeâre leaving now,â the woman in the palace dress said. âIf youâre able to make it to the Heavenly Capital Domain, come to the Snow Heaven Sect to find her.â
The woman in the palace dress waved her hand as a cloud seemed to appear beneath her feet, bringing her and Xiao LingâEr into the sky.
âBig bro, you have to come find me!â In the air, the girl holding the 2 Violet Spirit Foxes waved her hand as she called out.
âI definitely will,â Xiao Yun loudly replied. He would still think about her and worry about her, now that she would be by herself. If he had the chance, he would definitely go.
In the sky, a light flashed as Xiao LingâEr and the woman disappeared into the distance.
â That womanâs cultivation is even higher than Ling Xiâs, â Xiao Yun thought to himself as he watched them disappear. With such an expert protecting his little sister, he felt quite at ease.
âI also need to work hard so I can make preparations to go to the Heavenly Capital Domain.â Thinking to Ling Xi and his father, the desire to become strong burned within Xiao Yunâs heart. If he didnât have sufficient strength, how could he go to the Heavenly Capital Domain?
Those from the Moonwind Kingdom wanting to go there was as difficult as scaling the heavens!
âThe first step is for me to enter the Heaven Origin Sect,â Xiao Yunâs muttered to himself as his gaze became serious.
It was said that the Heaven Origin Sectâs disciples had the opportunity to go to the Heavenly Capital Domain. However, he didnât know what that opportunity was.
After confirming his goal, Xiao Yun quickly calmed down and launched himself into his plans from before.
As he cultivated, he also started to refine pills.
In order to be at ease when he left, he needed to make sure that the Xiao family was as strong as possible so that it would only prosper and not go into decline.
