"If you want to repay my kindness, why not follow the rules of your White Fox Clan and offer yourself to me?" Jiang Wen said jokingly, looking at Bai Jing.
Bai Jing glanced at him charmingly, then pointed her finger at Jiang Wen and said, "Does my lord truly think so? This servant wouldn't mind warming my lord's bed."
"It was just a joke," Jiang Wen said upon hearing her words.
"Hmph." Bai Jing snorted softly, and the two began chatting about the Sky Fox Ceremony again. Bai Jing said that the Sky Fox Ceremony's sacrificial ritual has always been passed down only to the clan leader. If she doesn't return, no one will know how to hold the ceremony. The timing of the ceremony has also been passed down by generations of White Fox Clan leaders. Only after the next clan leader is chosen can she inform them of this inheritance. At that point, her days will be easier.
However, judging from the current situation, it will be extremely difficult to choose a successor from among those little foxes.
"Many elders died during the early years of chaos. This servant originally had four great protectors, but unfortunately, some died and others fled. Now, they are all just little foxes, causing trouble all day long, disturbing this servant's peace," Bai Jing said, sighing involuntarily as she spoke of her little foxes. Among them, there are some white foxes who are three or four hundred years old, but in terms of the lifespan of the White Fox Clan, they are only in their youth.
It is certain that Bai Jing will have to continue leading the White Fox Clan for a long time to come.
"Let's not talk about those little things. This servant has also seen many good seedlings. They are being cultivated slightly and may be useful in the future. It's just that there are only three thousand white foxes in the clan now, which is still a bit too few," Bai Jing said worriedly.
"Things will get better in the future," Jiang Wen comforted. Now that the White Fox Clan resides in the Sumeru Small World of Quiet Void Mountain, they can live peacefully without any enemies. The number of clan members will surely slowly increase in the future.
Bai Jing also knew this, so her mood was not as anxious as it was in Joyful Abode, where she worried all day long.
"All of this is thanks to my lord," Bai Jing said with a smile.
Bai Qing, who was eating something on the side, listened to their conversation, filled with curiosity. She was very curious about Jiang Wen's world and wanted to know what it was like.
After all, whether it was flying on a sword or a Dharma Avatar, it was like a story from classical mythology, unforgettable.
Moreover, her current identity is the Son of Bai Ze. Although she knows about Bai Ze, who is his son? And what does this person want from her?
Bai Qing felt unsure, but she was still looking forward to it.
After the chat, Jiang Wen took Bai Qing to wander around the Sea Market. Although many places didn't allow pets, no one said anything as long as she coiled around his neck like a scarf.
These days, the Shen family of Sea Market also knew of Jiang Wen's arrival and repeatedly invited him to their home. They said that Old Master Shen had been missing him these days and wanted to talk about scriptures and doctrines with him.
Jiang Wen naturally knew Old Master Shen's intentions, which were nothing more than to ask if he had any elixirs in his possession. After causing such a stir, the old man would understand his uniqueness as long as he wasn't an idiot. Therefore, the person who invited him was also particularly respectful, his tone cautious, fearing to offend Jiang Wen.
Jiang Wen laughed at these people for being so unscrupulous and sold a few of the ordinary elixirs in his hand to Old Master Shen. He also warned that although elixirs are good, taking too many would lead to drug resistance. Taking one pill every year would be enough to guarantee Old Master Shen a hundred years of life.
Old Master Shen naturally thanked him profusely and was generous with the money. Looking at the eight-figure, nine-digit sum entering his account, Jiang Wen felt that his wallet had become wealthy again.
After returning, many things were officially launched.
After staying in Sea Market for three days, he took the tired Bai Qing and the still-interested Bai Jing. The one man and two demons then went to Mountain Capital.
Bai Qing said she wanted to see her family, and Jiang Wen agreed. Winter in Mountain Capital was also a scene of withering, but the lively places were still lively.
Looking at the crowded famous mountains and temples, Jiang Wen couldn't help but sigh that the Daoist sect was indeed a righteous and famous sect. Its popularity was much stronger than his broken-down Daoist temple. If he could also have so many pilgrims and believers, his incense value would surely soar.
After visiting the mountain gate with Bai Jing, Jiang Wen discovered that the Daoists in the temple showed signs of body training. There was even a young man with a gentle face who already had a sense of Qi in his body.
This talent was much stronger than Shen Yue Shu's. Just by relying on the two martial arts cultivation manuals he had spread, he was able to generate a sense of Qi, truly gifted.
It should be known that the girl had barely generated a sense of Qi under his elixir feeding and personal training.
"The gap between people is so great," Jiang Wen sent this matter to Shen Yue Shu, who only replied with a grimace.
"When are you coming back to the temple? I've been there several times and haven't seen you," Shen Yue Shu sent a message.
"I'll be back in a few days," Jiang Wen replied.
"I can already gather Qi into a ball. Does that count as a Houtian expert?"
"When you can gather Qi into a vortex and circulate it through your limbs and meridians, you'll be considered a Houtian expert."
"Oh, my birthday is in two days."
"Happy birthday."
"…Is there no other expression? Like accepting me as an official disciple of Quiet Void Temple?"
"Keep working hard. Let's talk about Xiantian first."
Afterward, Shen Yue Shu sent him an angry expression, and Jiang Wen only felt happy.
"My lord looks very happy. Which sister are you chatting with so enthusiastically?" Bai Jing asked, leaning closer.
"It's just Shen Yue Shu. She asked me when I'm going back," Jiang Wen put down his phone, listening to the bells ringing in the Daoist temple. After visiting this Daoist temple, there was nothing else to see.
Although the development of Daoism had undergone some changes after his catalysis, this change would not happen in one step.
After all, the turbid Qi in this world is too heavy. The more developed the civilization, the harder it is to eliminate the turbid Qi, and the harder it is for the people of this world to cultivate and enter the Dao.
Let's take it one step at a time, starting with martial arts and internal cultivation.
After visiting the famous temple in Mountain City, they arrived at Bai Qing's home.
The furnishings in the home were warm, but the black and white photo placed on the table made Bai Qing feel sad. She knew the ending wasn't good, but she still wanted to come and see. Now that she saw her own portrait, she felt extremely sad.
If she hadn't been willful and ran out to play that day, perhaps her parents wouldn't have lost their daughter whom they had raised for many years.
"Dad, Mom… your daughter is unfilial. I'm sorry," Bai Qing sobbed.
Upon hearing this, Bai Qing felt that it was indeed true, and she immediately cheered up.
As they were about to leave, Jiang Wen asked her if she had any needs. Bai Qing said she wanted to leave something for her parents.
Jiang Wen agreed.
