The grass in the factory should be plucked

Chapter 615 Meeting

Xie Chang'an explained, "The tallest tree in the forest is bound to be felled by the wind. Junior Sister Jiang achieved Foundation Establishment at fifteen. While it may not be unprecedented, she is certainly among the best in the Tianyan Realm. Anyone who investigates will discover that she has a unique physique."

"Moreover, the baby dragon she contracted with has only recently hatched. As the saying goes, 'possessing a treasure invites trouble.' A baby dragon without the ability to protect itself will undoubtedly attract many covetous eyes."

"Unless Junior Sister Jiang never leaves the sect again!"

Mingxuan Zhenjun remained silent.

He had to admit that Xie Chang'an was right.

Although the sect's masters are capable of protecting her, can her elders really protect her every step of the way when she goes out to train?

Then what's the point of going through trials and cultivating immortality?

"And what's your opinion?" Mingxuan Zhenjun snorted.

Xie Chang'an said, "The bond of shared hearts between Daoist partners can provide maximum protection."

Mingxuan Zhenjun remained silent.

Even if you are at opposite ends of the earth, the Pact of Unity can ensure unimpeded communication and help you share the pain of your partner.

If Jiang Li becomes a Daoist partner with True Monarch Chonghua, it will be equivalent to having a Nascent Soul stage bodyguard!

But Lili is still so young...

Mingxuan Zhenjun was very conflicted.

After thinking it over, he decided that getting engaged first would be fine. Li Li had a renowned Nascent Soul sword cultivator fiancé and was backed by the Beast Taming Sect and the Sword Sect. He estimated that few people in the Tianyan Realm would dare to make a move on her.

Mingxuan Zhenjun was already seven or eight parts tempted, and couldn't help but scrutinize Xie Chang'an closely.

To be fair, he was so handsome and talented that he advanced to the Nascent Soul stage before he was even a hundred years old. He was indeed worthy of my precious disciple.

The only problem is that there's quite a significant age gap between them...

He sighed and said, "This matter still needs to be discussed with the elders of the sect and my disciple, but..."

Mingxuan Zhenjun changed the subject, "Lili's memories of the lower realm have been sealed by me using a secret technique, and cannot be unlocked until one reaches the Golden Core stage."

Xie Chang'an was stunned.

In other words, Little Tanuki doesn't remember him now, nor has she forgotten their unwavering devotion, their carefree life, or even the little things between them.

No wonder, after returning to the Upper Realm, the little fox disappeared without a trace!

Mingxuan Zhenjun snorted, "What kind of disciple goes to the mortal realm for training during the Qi Refining stage? If I hadn't sealed her memories, she might have already lost her Dao heart by the time she received your invitation!"

Xie Chang'an looked ashamed: "It was my fault. Your Majesty's consideration was extremely thoughtful."

Mingxuan Zhenjun smiled slightly: "Little Lili has been greatly loved by the elders of the sect since she was a child, and she is a bit spoiled. If she does not agree, I cannot force her."

The implication was that his agreement wasn't enough; Jiang Li's agreement was required!

Xie Chang'an was both happy and worried. He cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your kindness, True Lord! May I ask if I may meet Junior Sister Jiang?"

Mingxuan Zhenjun beckoned a spirit bird: "Where is Xiaolizi? Call her over."

The little bird chuckled, "She's peeking through the crack in the door!"

To be precise, they were clinging to the barrier outside the main hall.

The barrier was personally set up by True Monarch Mingxuan, so Jiang Li naturally didn't hear anything. She was itching to find a loophole in the barrier so she could peek inside.

Xie Chang'an couldn't help but smile slightly.

Mingxuan Zhenjun was speechless and casually released the restriction on the gate.

Jiang Li was clinging to the door when, unexpectedly, the two large doors suddenly opened!

Caught off guard, she stumbled and fell into the hall, immediately landing in a cold embrace.

Jiang Li was startled and looked up abruptly, her gaze unexpectedly meeting a pair of radiant peach blossom eyes.

Those eyes were overflowing with tenderness, so lingering and affectionate, so direct and direct, that they almost overwhelmed her!

Xie Chang'an stared unblinkingly at the person in his arms, his eyes filled with amazement.

Jiang Li, now restored to her true form, possesses flawless beauty and a radiant, luminous complexion. Compared to the original Jiang Li, she exudes an even more ethereal and pure quality.

However, there was still a childlike innocence between her brows, making her extremely charming and endearing.

Xie Chang'an finally realized who Xie Wuyou's clear and pure temperament resembled—it was exactly like the little girl in front of him!

Jiang Li blushed, hurriedly broke free from the man's embrace, and scolded Mingxuan Zhenjun, "Master! Why did you suddenly open the door?"

Mingxuan Zhenjun snorted, "Who told you to peek through the crack in the door?"

He coughed lightly, "This is the Chonghua True Monarch of the Sword Sect."

Jiang Li looked curiously at the tall and handsome young man and couldn't help but secretly admire him. He really was the most charming and captivating man in the Tianyan Realm. No wonder he could make so many female cultivators secretly fall in love with him and flock to him.

"Junior Jiang Li greets True Lord Chonghua."

Jiang Li bowed respectfully.

Upon hearing her refer to herself as a junior, Xie Chang'an's face darkened, while Mingxuan Zhenjun couldn't help but smile.

"Junior Sister Jiang, there's no need for such formalities."

Xie Chang'an said gently, "I have a mentor-student relationship with the True Lord, so we can address each other as fellow disciples."

Jiang Li glanced at her master in surprise, her eyes filled with deep reproach.

Master, you actually kept it a secret from us and secretly took in a disciple in name only?!

Mingxuan Zhenjun was furious. He glared at her and said, "What does this have to do with me? Isn't it all thanks to you?"

Seeing the master and apprentice arguing so fiercely, Xie Chang'an felt both amused and inexplicably saddened.

These unspoken gestures, which used to belong only to the couple, now completely exclude him, making him seem like an outsider!

When will his little raccoon remember him?

"Junior Sister Jiang."

Xie Chang'an interrupted the master and disciple's charade, drawing Jiang Li's attention to himself.

"I have long heard of the beautiful scenery of the Beast Taming Sect, and I yearn to visit it. I wonder if my junior sister could be my guide?"

What does that mean? Does he want to visit the Beast Taming Sect?

Jiang Li looked at her master with a puzzled expression.

Mingxuan Zhenjun was speechless. Wasn't he just trying to create an opportunity to get close to him?

He nodded helplessly: "Alright, Lili, you take True Monarch Chonghua around."

Xie Chang'an said happily, "Thank you, True Lord!"

Jiang Li, puzzled, could only cup her hands and say, "True Lord, please—"

Xie Chang'an smiled and said, "Thank you for leading the way, Junior Sister."

He added, "My secular name is Xie, and my given name is Chang'an. My junior sister can call me Senior Brother Chang'an."

"Senior Brother Chang'an" is a substitute for "Brother Chang'an".

"Oh, then, Senior Brother Chang'an, please—"

Jiang Li was confused, but then she thought, "Fine, if he insists on being a generation younger, then I'll just go along with it."

Mingxuan Zhenjun watched the two figures disappear into the distance. One was tall and slender, the other petite and delicate; they were quite a perfect match.

He sighed and went to consult with the sect leader, Qingyuan Zhenjun, as well as his grandmaster and other elders of the sect about the matter.

Since this matter involves Jiang Li, the immaculate spirit, and that little green dragon, he had to treat it with utmost care.

If outsiders knew that a Foundation Establishment disciple possessed a young dragon spirit pet, it would undoubtedly attract countless covetous glances!

As True Lord Chonghua said, "To possess a treasure is a crime!"
