Senior Sister Bai Yueguang is incredibly strong.

Chapter 117 A Trip to Penglai ( )

Luo Zai Shui vaguely heard someone calling her.

"Senior sister, senior sister—"

Luo Zai Shui suddenly woke up with a start. In front of her was Ji Ting Han, who was holding a bowl of medicine and tilting his head to look at her: "Senior Sister, what's wrong?"

"Tinghan, what's wrong?"

No, the Ji Tinghan in front of me looks like he did when he was a teenager.

Ji Tinghan was puzzled: "Senior sister, are you delirious from the fever? I just told you I came to bring you medicine."

What happened...?

"Cough cough cough..."

Another violent coughing fit ensued. Luo Zai Shui hadn't felt this weak in a long time. Clutching her aching chest, she suddenly realized that her spiritual power had regressed to the Qi Refining stage.

Ji Tinghan blew on the bowl of medicine in his hand to cool it down, then handed it to Luo Zaishui: "Senior Sister, drink some of your medicine first."

Luo Zai Shui suspected that this was an illusion created by her inner demons.

"Where are Master and the others?"

"You forgot? Master and the others are preparing for Junior Sister's apprenticeship ceremony. They'll be here to see you soon. Drink your medicine first."

Luo Zai Shui struggled to get out of bed, and Ji Ting Han quickly helped her up: "Senior Sister, what are you doing!"

Ji Tinghan steadied her firmly, but Luo Zai Shui struggled a bit and broke free from his grasp: "I'm going outside to take a look."

"What's outside? Senior sister, you should lie down and rest first."

Ji Tinghan tried to help her back to bed, but Luo Zaishui stood firmly in place, refusing to move an inch.

"Senior Sister?"

Ji Tinghan called her name again, feeling that her senior sister was acting very strangely today.

"Senior sister, I've come to see you!"

Jian Muyi seemed oblivious to the strange atmosphere inside the room, and casually pushed open the door and walked in, carrying a bag of pastries in his arms.

Seeing the scene inside, Jian Muyi was dumbfounded: "Ji Tinghan, what did you do to make your senior sister angry? Oh dear, you can't get angry when you're sick! You should lie down and rest!"

As he spoke, he quickly stepped forward and helped Luo Zai Shui back to bed.

Luo Zai Shui dared not make any rash moves and had no choice but to obediently lie back down.

Jian Muyi presented him with a bag of pastries like a treasure: "Senior sister, look at the pastries I specially bought for you today. Try them, they're delicious."

Ji Tinghan pushed him aside and picked up the bowl of bitter medicine again: "Senior sister should drink her medicine first. This medicine has gone cold. I'll go and brew another one."

"How did you catch a cold out of nowhere?"

Xie Jing, with a folding fan tucked into his waistband, hurried over.

"Master/Uncle-Master".

Ji Tinghan and Jian Muyi quickly bowed.

Xie Jing raised an eyebrow when he saw that Luo Zai Shui hadn't called him: "Are you delirious from the fever? Don't you recognize your master?"

For some reason, Luo Zai Shui felt a lump in her throat, and she called out in a hoarse voice, "Master."

Xie Jing placed his hand on Luo Zai Shui's forehead without thinking: "It's not that hot. Hey you, Xue Xin, come take a look! I hope it won't cause any lasting health problems."

Xue Xin, carrying a medicine box and panting, finally appeared at the door: "Wait a moment, let me catch my breath."

"It's nothing serious, just a common cold. Taking that medicine for two days should be fine."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief after Xue Xin took their pulse.

Xie Jing was still a little worried: "They say recovery from illness is slow and gradual, can you really expect it to work after just two days?"

"Every medicine has some side effects, so it's best to be careful. I'll prescribe a new dose for you once you're feeling better."

Xue Xin wasn't as nervous as the others; it was just a cold, and his senior sister wasn't that fragile.

"Dong dong dong."

Three unhurried knocks sounded at the door, and the person stood outside, carrying a food box.

Why aren't you closing the door?

Shi Ming came in and closed the door behind him, keeping the cold air outside out.

Xue Xin was a little embarrassed: "I was in such a hurry to come in that I forgot."

Jian Muyi didn't hold back and tapped him twice on the forehead: "With your terrible memory, what are we going to do if you make our senior sister's illness even worse!"

Xue Xin, realizing he was in the wrong, covered his head and said, "I was wrong, I was wrong. I'll definitely remember to close the door next time."

Shi Ming ignored his junior brother who had been beaten and went straight to Xie Jing's side, where he bowed.

"Uncle-Master".

Xie Jing waved his hand: "Alright, alright, stop with the formalities. You guys keep an eye on her, I'll go see what's going on at the apprenticeship ceremony."

"it is good."

Shi Ming took out a bowl of steaming white porridge from the food box. The steaming vapor moistened Luo Zai Shui's eyes: "I thought you probably hadn't eaten much today, so I'll give you some white porridge to tide you over. I'll prepare other easy-to-digest foods for you later."

Luo Zai Shui felt that the scene before her was unreal. She held a bowl of hot porridge without moving. Ji Ting Han dragged Xue Xin to brew the medicine again and took the troublesome Jian Mu Yi with him.

Seeing that she seemed distracted, Shi Ming asked with concern, "Junior Sister, what's wrong?"

Luo Zai Shui's fingertips rubbed against the rim of the bowl: "It's nothing, Senior Brother, I just feel a little unreal."

Shi Ming, puzzled, placed a hand on her forehead: "What's wrong with you? Are you delirious from the fever?"

Luo Zai Shui gently shook his head: "Senior Brother, I'm fine."

Shi Ming thought she was sick and had started overthinking again, so he comforted her, "Don't worry, even if everything else is unreal, Senior Brother is definitely real."

He held out his hand to Luo Zai Shui: "If you don't believe me, try squeezing it."

He thought Luo Zai Shui would refuse, but to his surprise, Luo Zai Shui grabbed his fingertips and brought his hand to her slightly flushed face, which also made Shi Ming's ear tips feel hot.

"Senior Brother, I miss you all so much."

Shi Ming didn't pull his hand away, but poked her somewhat thin cheek: "It's only been one night, and you miss me this much?"

"Yes, I really miss everyone so much."

Luo Zai Shui admitted that she was currently very greedy for the warmth of the moment, but she could not succumb to it. She did not know how to break the deadlock, so she could only take it one step at a time.

Ji Tinghan brewed another bowl of medicine and brought it to her. Luo Zai Shui hesitated for a moment, then gulped it down. She didn't believe that the Demon Lord only knew how to use poison.

"Senior sister, today is junior sister's apprenticeship ceremony, would you like to go and watch?"

Jian Muyi suggested that he really wanted to meet this junior sister. With a junior sister, he would no longer be the youngest disciple. He would cherish her like a younger sister, teach her swordsmanship, and explore the cultivation world with her. Just thinking about it made him feel wonderful.

He could already imagine his lovely junior sister looking at him with a very adoring gaze.

Ji Tinghan couldn't help but pour cold water on him: "If you want to go, you go. I'm going to stay here with my senior sister."

"Let's go take a look."

Luo Zai Shui really wanted to see Su Wu Si and also go outside to see what the situation was like.

Although Shi Ming didn't seem to approve of her going out in the cold wind, he still draped a thick cloak over her shoulders.

The group stood at the highest point, looking at the two figures, one large and one small, at the foot of Xianyun Peak. The larger one was the sect leader of Xianyun Peak, and the smaller one was close to the sect leader, thin and weak, timid. As if she felt someone was watching her, she clung even tighter.

This is... Su Wusi?
