Chapter 7: Disaster is imminent!
The Sixth Elder stood there awkwardly, unsure whether to cry or not.
After a while, a questioning voice rang out: "Uncle?"
The female disciple, who had been crying for half a day while being held by the Sixth Elder's clothes, spoke hesitantly.
Luan Ning is a female disciple who has just entered the outer sect. Her family is just an insignificant small family in the Southern Region.
However, before she arrived, her father mysteriously led her into the study.
"Daughter, I've already found you a strong backer. You don't need to worry when you go to the outer sect. Your uncle will definitely protect you."
"If there is any danger, be sure to tell your uncle. He can make decisions for you in any way!"
As Luan Ning said these words, she even felt that her father, whom she had previously thought was not very concerned about her, was so great!
So this is my uncle? He looks incredibly capable, and he even found me first when I was in danger.
Thinking about it this way, Luan Ning felt a surge of grievances welling up inside her, and she couldn't stop crying.
"Uncle, it's this person! He used something strange to immobilize us, trying to make us get eaten by that black bear monster!"
The baby-faced girl cried so loudly it was earth-shattering, even more so than the Sixth Elder's crying before, and she was hiccuping as she cried.
Sixth Elder: "..."
He looked around blankly, somewhat confused as to how he had suddenly gained another niece.
[Oh ho ho, you've gained a niece! Sixth Elder, although you cried to the wrong person, you've still gotten a free niece!]
Lan Yue was secretly amused.
Everyone: "..."
So, where is their real eldest niece?
Even the sect leader hesitated when looking at the four girls.
The Sixth Elder, who was being held and weeping, wiped away his tears. He was very clear-headed at the moment. The girl in front of him had not yet entered the Qi body and had not yet heard Xiao Lanyue's thoughts.
Otherwise, he would lose all face!
Thank goodness!
The restriction on the immortal artifact is simply wonderful!
His real niece certainly didn't receive any qi, so she was unaware of her current embarrassing situation.
He needs to figure out how to solve this problem. He absolutely cannot let his niece know that her uncle has foolishly mistaken her for someone else.
[Wow, so the female lead has already achieved Qi Induction! I knew my Nü'e was the most amazing! She's only been at the Southern Spirit Sect for a short time, not even a formal outer disciple, and she's already accomplished this. It's truly admirable!]
Lan Yue, hiding at the very back, looked in the direction of Yun Xi with an expression of adoration, her eyes full of longing.
When will she be able to become as capable as the female lead?
However, thinking about the various life-or-death crises the female protagonist encountered on her path to immortality, including one time when she was struck by lightning and reduced to just a skeleton, she still persevered.
The longing in Lan Yue's mind was extinguished in an instant.
The reason why the main characters are all so powerful is because they are all incredibly competitive. No wonder they can achieve immortality!
Lan Yue sighed deeply, deciding that she should just stay out of the noise and watch the drama unfold.
Meanwhile, the Sixth Elder on the other side was completely distraught.
What? Your niece has already absorbed Qi and knows about his embarrassing mistake of someone else?
The Sixth Elder was bewildered in the wind. Not only was Luan Ning pulling at his sleeve, but he also smeared a lot of tears on his face.
"Uncle, you must do justice for me!" The child's voice was so pitiful.
The Sixth Elder could only tremble as he pulled out his weapon, the Immortal Binding Rope, and tied up Rosen and the others again.
Rosen and the others were almost scared out of their wits. They had originally wanted to use Yun Li to curry favor with the sect leader.
Now that the sect leader himself has come here, one of the people who were bullied is even the sect leader's own daughter.
[Oh dear, you're in big trouble!]
At this moment, a gloating voice rang out. Upon hearing this voice, Rosen's eyes rolled back, and he fainted from fright.
After the others realized what was happening, they all fainted faster than the next one, and within seconds they were all lying on the ground.
"Niece, your uncle has avenged you." The Sixth Elder, tears streaming down his face, tugged at Luan Ning's sleeve, utterly heartbroken.
Two people who were not related by blood stood there embracing each other and crying bitterly.
Of course, whether the Sixth Elder cried so bitterly because he felt ashamed or for some other reason, no one could know.
[Wait, could this really be the Sixth Elder's niece, or am I mistaken?]
Yes, yes, you should quickly let this matter drop! Otherwise, he'll lose face!
The Sixth Elder cried as he urged the others on in his heart.
[But the system clearly states that they have no relation whatsoever.]
Lan Yue was confused, and she looked in the direction of the Sixth Elder with no idea what was going on.
"Ahem, since we are destined to meet today, I will accept you as my disciple. Would you be willing to become my disciple in the future?" The Sixth Elder raised his head and said solemnly.
"Waaah, Uncle, you're so kind! I'm willing!" Luan Ning was so moved that she almost couldn't stop crying.
After the Sixth Elder finished speaking, he secretly glanced in Lan Yue's direction, as if to say, who said there was no relationship? Isn't a master-disciple relationship a relationship?
[Why is the Sixth Elder looking at me like that? Is my gloating expression too obvious?]
[Perhaps I really did see wrong. Maybe they only made a verbal agreement and didn't officially recognize each other as relatives? It seems even the gossip system has things it doesn't know. I need to pay more attention.]
Lan Yue secretly crept towards the female lead while reflecting on her actions.
[Forget it, I'm not going to watch this anymore, the female lead is still the best. Nü'e, here I come!]
Bang.
A tree suddenly appeared in front of Lan Yue, and she almost hit her head on it.
"Lan Yue, how could you be so careless? Come here and let me take a look." The Second Elder secretly released his magic seal, looking all loving.
Just as Lan Yue was feeling dizzy and lightheaded, the sect leader on the other side had already arrived in front of Yun Xi.
Yun Chong stared at the thin girl in front of him. She was clearly ten years old, but looked like she was eight or nine.
Her small, thin face made her eyes seem to take up half of her face, making them appear exceptionally dark and bright, with a tenacious spirit that refused to give up.
Like a weed carelessly scattered in a crack in the rock, it grows tenaciously with its own perseverance, showing the world its fragile sprout and proclaiming its existence.
Standing here at this moment, looking at his daughter, he truly felt that warmth.
It wasn't from the pulse of his bloodline, nor did it rely on any magic to detect blood relations; the girl in front of him was just standing there, and he had a very strange feeling.
At that moment, he truly realized that this was his daughter, and that he had become a father, even an irresponsible one, a father who had failed to protect his daughter.
The two looked at each other, and everything was so warm and cozy. Even Lan Yue's innermost thoughts disappeared at some point, and the entire Green Qi Mountain was silent.
The black birds and beasts seemed to realize something and sensed an inexplicable crisis. They all shut their mouths and dared not make a sound.
Just as Yun Chong looked at the girl's scarred hands, his heart ached so much he almost cried.
The woman in front of him spoke up: "You also want to recognize me as your niece?"
In that instant, Yun Chong's face almost split open.
