[END] Will Eternal

Chapter 879: Queer! What are you doing here?

Upon seeing that Bai Xiaochun's reservation had been removed, a smile appeared on the Patriarch Spirit Stream's face. The truth was that he cared deeply for Bai Xiaochun, and not just because of how he had just defeated the three deva gods.

Bai Xiaochun was the heart and soul of the River Suppression Sect. It didn't matter that the Spirit Division and Bloodstream were now fully integrated; there was no one who could replace Bai Xiaochun!

Most importantly, Bai Xiaochun had the most orthodox and proper background in the Spirit Stream Division!

Suddenly, the patriarch seemed to remember something. “Xiaochun, you are long lost in the Wildlands. Now that you have returned, I must ask: did you hear about the Heavenly Core issue in choosing a new disciple? ”

"Celestial chose a new apprentice?" Bai Xiaochun said, a look of shock appeared on his face.

The patriarch nodded. “Even I am not too familiar with what happened in this situation. However, the whole affair should begin immediately. The four river source sects made preparations.

"According to what I heard, any Nascent Soul cultivator can join the running. As long as they were from the Heavenspan River region, it didn't matter if they belonged to a sect, clan, or even if they were rogue cultivators. All Nascent Soul cultivators were qualified to go to Heavenspan Island! ” Patriarch Spirit Stream sighed. Considering how old he was, he knew that he was no match for such a position. After all, there was no shortage of Nascent Soul cultivators in the Heavenspan River region.

For a Nascent Soul cultivator to defeat so many others to win a place would be like a human being who could ascend to heaven!

However, there was hope for Bai Xiaochun. Despite the fact that he can clearly defeat almost everyone in his generation, he is clearly not yet a god.

Although only a demigod, he had killed one true god, crippled the other, and forced the third to flee. The Patriarch Spirit Stream had never heard of such a thing happening in the eastern Heavenspan River, and although he could not be sure if something heaven-defying had happened in the other three great rivers, it was not, he knew it must have never happened before.

This was the first time Bai Xiaochun had heard of Celestial taking on a new apprentice, but all he did was make him shake his head. Because of what he had witnessed in the spectacular battle in the Wildlands, he simply did not have a very good impression of the Celestials….

The mention of the Celestial immediately made him think about Hou Xiaomei, so he asked the patriarch about him.

“Hou Xiaomei and Ghostfang were both brought to Heavenspan Island about a decade ago, along with several thousand others. It was achieved, not by combat, but by the assessment of talent and other factors. Hou Xiaomei seemed to have an unusual talent in a certain field. Assuming he followed the instructions and excelled in cultivation, he would have the chance to become a special guard there!

“This kind of thing only happens once every few hundred years. Of those 10,000 cultivators, only a few hundred would end up as special guards. ” Patriarch Spirit Stream clearly did not know much about the situation, but it clearly had great hopes for the outcome. At this moment, there was a lot of work to be done in order to get back the River Suppression Sect, and therefore, the Patriarch Spirit Stream turned around to leave.

When he did, he remembered how close Hou Xiaomei and Bai Xiaochun were, and turned his head back to say, "If you want more details, you should ask Song Junwan. The formality of the selection took place in the Starry Sky Polarity Sect, and Song Junwan was also there. Unfortunately, he was not chosen. "

Bai Xiaochun nodded, choosing to keep his doubts about the Celestials to himself. It was not that he did not trust the Patriarch Spirit Stream, just that his suspicions were too shocking. Still feeling somewhat uneasy about all this, he took a moment to look at the grave, then took a deep breath and left.

Before long, it was night, and a bright moon hung high in the sky. Most of the disciples of the River Opposing Sect practiced cultivation. After all, the repair work could not be completed in a day, and they needed time to recover from the exhaustion of the battle.

It was at this time that Bai Xiaochun finally took the opportunity to search for Song Junwan. On one hand, he had missed her for so many years, and on the other, he also wanted to find out more about what had happened to Hou Xiaomei.

Song Junwan finally rested, and was in his immortal cave, recovering from his weariness with medicinal pills. However, there was one person who went to see him before Bai Xiaochun. And that is Song Que.

Considering that Song Que was a chosen one from the Song Clan, it was only natural that Song Junwan cared so much about him. And the fact that he was now at the Nascent Soul stage was great for the clan.

Despite the fact that Song Junwan held seniority over Song Que, once he arrived, he got up to meet him. However, Song Que did not dare to rely on his cultivation base to act like a rank cultivator. Rushing forward, he said, “No need for that, Aunt Junwan. Queer came to offer his regards. "

Acting with great respect, he clasped his hands and bowed, just as he had returned when his cultivation base was far inferior to his.

Song Junwan was very pleased with his caution. However, that did not stop him from offering advice.

"Que’er, now that you have Nascent Soul, it is only appropriate for me to accept you formally. Although we cannot forget the matter of protocol, in the world of cultivation, power demands respect. ”

However ... Given who Song Junwan was, and his relationship with Bai Xiaochun, Song Que had no choice but to suppress his bitterness. Although he was a little happy to see how depressed Bai Xiaochun had been recently, he did not dare to reveal it openly. Not only did having time in the Wildlands force him to grow up a little, but it also instilled a deep respect for Bai Xiaochun that even he would not admit existed.

Furthermore, Bai Xiaochun had repeatedly brought up the matter of himself being Song Que's uncle. Therefore, the issue of seniority related to Song Junwan was far from simple.

If not for that, his first visit would not have been to Song Junwan, but rather, to the patriarch of the Song Clan.

“No need for that, Aunt Junwan. In your eyes, Ma'am, Que’er will always be the same child he was many years ago. ” With that, Song Que took a deep breath and then bowed officially to Song Junwan.

Song Junwan's smile grew wider, and his eyes were warmer. He was proud that a qilin son like this had risen up in the clan, and immediately asked him about his adventures in the Wildlands.

In response, he was cooped up and gaped, telling vaguely and awkwardly about what happened after he disappeared. If it was anyone else, he would have acted a little more arrogantly. But now, he was not sure how to behave around Song Junwan.

Song Junwan could tell that there was something wrong about Song Que. She frowned, which made her look even prettier, and also more gloomy. Just as he was about to ask some pointy questions, he heard Bai Xiaochun's voice outside the immortal cave.

"Better, my dear," he said excitedly, "I'm back!"

As soon as his voice entered the immortal cave, Song Que's heart began to beat violently. As for Song Junwan, his face flushed red, and his eyes flickered with a hint of fury. For her to act romantically with him in front of someone from the younger generation not only caused her heart to start racing, it was also somewhat embarrassing. He quickly waved his hand, causing the door of the immortal cave to slam open.

Bai Xiaochun stepped in and immediately saw Song Que.

"Eee ?! Sailor! What are you doing here?"

Song Que's face darkened.

When Song Junwan saw Song Que's expression, he suddenly looked a little apologetic. He knew that part of the fault was that Bai Xiaochun treated Song Que like this, and would say something when Bai Xiaochun cut him off.

"Worse, you don't know what the Wildlands are like. It's very dangerous. Deadly situations arise wherever you go. To save Que’er, I almost revealed my secret identity! I even offended a group of nobles, and ended up shaking some of the heavenly marquis clans!

"Did you hear that? Heavenly marquise! Wildlands are huge, but they only have 108 of them. Everyone is a very important and famous person! ” With a sigh, he recalled how expensive the price he had paid to save Song Que was.

"I'll never forget how bad the situation Que’er was in when I first found him in the Wildlands. He was stabbed full of so many holes that he looked like a sieve! One of the heavenly marquis clans had turned him into a living spirit stone!

"Do you know what a living spirit stone is, Wan’er? They forced them to eat all kinds of medicinal pills and items, forcing their qi passageways to inflate. It increased their cultivation base, which they then forced to twist, sending the power of the cultivation base through all the holes they plugged in it. That in turn created a small area that was abundant in spiritual energy!

"And then ... the junior generation of the clan can practice cultivation without spirit stones!" Bai Xiaochun's vivid description caused Song Que to subconsciously rethink the dark times of the past. At the same time, Song Junwan gasped, and his expression turned grim.

"That's outrageous!" he said with anger. He stared at the bitter expression on Song Que's face, and could tell that Bai Xiaochun was not exaggerating. Suddenly, he realized why Song Que had found the words before.

"Thank you for what you did, Xiaochun !!" she said. Previously, he had intended to prevent Bai Xiaochun from saying anything to Song Que. Instead, he looked at her emotionally, and then bent over at the waist.

"No need for all formalities!" Bai Xiaochun replied. "After all, I did all that for you." Clearing her throat, she stepped forward, wrapped her arms around Kate's pliable waist, and then banged her chest. "You're Que’er's aunt, and I'm his uncle. We are family! If I don't help him in the Wildlands, who will? If I don't save him, who else? It was the right thing to do, and not a big deal at all. ”

Even though Song Junwan's face turned red, he did not push it away. In fact, his expression softened. Before, he felt as if they were growing apart, but now, with a hand on his waist, the feeling was gone.
