The four Golden Core cultivators from the Wind Sword Sect turned and retreated without hesitation.

These two had the divine ability to cross realms and slay Nascent Souls, which was truly beyond their capability to contend with.

Moreover, the young man with the handsome appearance had such profound evil cultivation power that he could seize control of Blood Qi from the Holy Mother.

This wasn't cowardice; at most, it was preserving their strength.

Facing the retreat of the Wind Sword Sect, Yaoqin and Chu Xingchen had no intention of pursuing. After all, crossing realms to slay Nascent Souls consumed a considerable amount of energy.

With the support of Blood Qi in their home ground, they could easily win, but without that support outside, they might win, but if the Wind Sword Sect's reinforcements arrived, it wouldn't be ideal.

Yaoqin looked up at the little girl still floating in the air and asked, "Is this the Evil Spirit Sect's plan?"

"Most likely," Chu Xingchen replied, retracting his Spirit Sword. With a mindset of giving it a try, he used the System to scan the little girl in front of him.

To his surprise, the System actually displayed the little girl's panel.

[Target: ???]

[Cultivation Level: None]

[Orange Trait Possibly Generating]

[Trait: ???]

[Trait: ???]

[Black Trait: Blood Qi Reversal]

[Black Trait: Critical Injury]

[Trait Generating, will meet disciple acceptance conditions once complete]

Chu Xingchen frowned slightly. Why were there so many question marks?

Yaoqin looked regretful; this child was probably captured by evil cultivators, but the situation was as it was. Her longsword glowed with spiritual light, intending to release this poor child.

After all, when her divine sense swept over, the girl's bones were nearly dissolved, and her heartbeat was extremely weak.

She couldn't survive much longer in this condition, so it was better to release her from her suffering.

"Wait..." Chu Xingchen took a deep breath and stopped Yaoqin.

Yaoqin looked confused but stopped her actions.

Chu Xingchen's gaze swept over the ritual procedure and the six giant cauldrons filled with Spirit Stones.

Immortal Seedlings and these imperfectly purified Blood Qi Spirit Stones—Chu Xingchen quickly made a decision.

Spirit Stones could always be obtained again, but Immortal Seedlings were not something one could encounter at will.

Half an hour later.

Two Rainbow Radiances flew out from the cave, heading straight for Yuzhou City.

——————

In the courtyard house rented by Chu Xingchen in Yuzhou City, a Rainbow Radiance quickly landed.

Li Yingling, who was in the courtyard pondering over a Divine Ability, turned her head to look.

She saw her Master holding a child wrapped in a blanket.

Li Yingling looked puzzled and cautiously asked, "Master... this child?"

Hearing the commotion, Li Xingtian also opened the door and, upon hearing his Senior Sister's words, looked at the child in their Master's arms.

Chu Xingchen sighed and said to Li Yingling, "Come and take your future Junior Sister."

Future Junior Sister?

Upon hearing this, Li Yingling quickly stepped forward and took the little girl from Chu Xingchen's arms.

The girl had an extremely pale face and very faint breathing, but her features were delicate, undoubtedly a beauty in the making.

However, a dark red energy occasionally flickered across her skin.

Li Yingling asked worriedly, "Master, this child seems..."

"Don't worry, she's in a stable condition for now, as long as you don't disturb her," Chu Xingchen quickly rummaged through his Spatial Ring for the few Spirit Herbs left for healing, saying, "I'll brew a potion for her..."

Seeing this, Li Yingling hesitated and said, "Master... are you sure you don't want to think it over?"

Standing silently at the door, Li Xingtian noticed something amiss. He quickly stepped forward, carefully examining the child in his Senior Sister's arms, then gently touched the girl's forehead with his finger.

After assessing the situation, Li Xingtian said, "Master, let me handle this."

Chu Xingchen paused in his actions, looking at his second disciple with confusion, "You know how to heal?"

"No, but I happen to have a solution for her condition."

Li Xingtian was certain that the little girl's issue was with her Blood Qi and body, something his righteous cultivation technique could address.

Hearing this, Chu Xingchen stopped his actions. Knowing his second disciple's character, he wouldn't speak so confidently without certainty.

"Then give it a try..."

Li Xingtian nodded gently, took the child from his Senior Sister's arms, and carried her to his room, placing her on the bed.

Chu Xingchen and Li Yingling followed him into the room.

They watched as Li Xingtian took a deep breath, and blood-colored Spiritual Power emerged around him, slowly enveloping the little girl before suddenly entering her body.

Immediately, the sound of bones shifting came from the girl's body.

The cracking sounds made Li Yingling frown slightly.

About three quarters of an hour later, Li Xingtian slowly retracted his Spiritual Power, took a deep breath, and looked at his Master, saying, "It's done. Do you want to wake her up now, Master?"

Chu Xingchen hesitated slightly, "If you can wake her, give it a try..."

Li Xingtian gently touched the girl's forehead, and a weak Spiritual Power quickly penetrated it.

The girl, who had been unconscious, suddenly opened her eyes and began to breathe deeply.

She instinctively flipped over, looking around with fear and astonishment.

An unclear, slightly hoarse voice came from the girl's mouth:

"Ah... ah..."

Chu Xingchen frowned slightly and used the System to scan the girl again.

[Target: ???]

[Cultivation Level: None]

[Orange Trait: Enchanting Demoness]

[Trait: ???]

[Trait: ???]

[Temporary Black Trait: Weakness]

[Meets Disciple Acceptance Conditions]

The two critical condition traits had indeed disappeared, at least not life-threatening anymore.

But what did the target question marks mean?

Chu Xingchen pondered briefly, then said, "Your new Junior Sister's name is... Chen Baiqing."

Hearing this, Li Yingling nodded and immediately pulled her second Junior Brother behind her.

It must be that Li Xingtian's fierce appearance scared their Junior Sister.

"Junior Sister Chen Baiqing... I'm your Senior Sister, don't be afraid, you're home now."

Li Yingling cautiously extended her hand, trying to gently touch the little girl leaning against the bed.

Chu Xingchen scanned the girl again with the System, and this time, the target was no longer question marks but [Target: Chen Baiqing].

So that's how it was...

This suggested that the two question mark traits were probably indicating potential for cultivation.

The little girl saw the gentle-faced Li Yingling and looked at her sincerely.

If the cold man earlier gave her a feeling of indifference, then this sister gave her a sense of endless warmth.

This feeling seemed to be an instinct from her body, and she couldn't help but rely on this intuition.

The girl slowly extended her hand, gently touching Li Yingling's hand, her voice soft and questioning:

"Senior... Sister?"

Li Yingling's smile instantly became even brighter.

Seeing this, Chu Xingchen quickly squeezed in; he had invested almost all his Spirit Stones in Chen Baiqing, and the thought of it made his heart ache.

Now, he needed to establish his identity as her Master first.

Chu Xingchen looked at Chen Baiqing with sincere and earnest eyes, "I'm your Master, quickly call me Master."

Chen Baiqing turned her gaze to Chu Xingchen, sensing that he seemed... to care for her?

This was also someone who was good to her, right?

She reached out her other hand to Chu Xingchen, her voice equally soft, "Mas... Master?"

[Disciple Accepted Successfully]

With the notification, Chu Xingchen was moved as he reached out to hold Chen Baiqing's other hand.

In this way, it was a win-win!

Only Li Xingtian stood behind them... How did a new Junior Sister arrive?

He actually felt a bit left out.
