#27 - Chapter 27 My Senior Sister Has the Appearance of an Emperor

On Mount Xiaoyao.

Xiao Bai sat by the Bitter Sea, filled with frustration, trying to cultivate the Xuan Huang Art.

Yet, he consistently failed to grasp its essence.

Could there be something wrong with this Xuan Huang Art?

I, this Emperor, am blessed with unparalleled talent, how could I struggle to comprehend it?

It must be a problem with the Xuan Huang Art; otherwise, with my talent, I would have understood it instantly.

But that shouldn't be; if there were an issue with the Xuan Huang Art, how did Senior Sister comprehend it?

Forget it, I should just go ask Senior Sister.

Clutching the Xuan Huang Art, Xiao Bai stood up and trotted towards Peach Mountain.

On Mount Xiaoyao, he dared not cultivate the Joyful Demon Codex.

Cultivating the Joyful Demon Codex created a significant disturbance, making it easy for enemies to detect.

Previously, when he still had a Foundation Establishment cultivation base, he could conceal it somewhat.

But now, it was impossible.

Without cultivation, once he practiced the Joyful Demon Codex, the released demonic energy would be noticed.

On Peach Mountain.

Lin Yaoyao, who had just finished bathing, heard Xiao Bai's voice.

"Senior Sister, Senior Sister."

Lin Yaoyao turned her head and saw Xiao Bai trotting over with the Xuan Huang Art in his arms, looking like he was about to fly…

Thud!

He fell…

A face-plant on flat ground.

Lin Yaoyao covered her forehead with one hand, unable to bear to watch.

Xiao Bai thought fiercely, if his cultivation hadn't been destroyed, how could he have fallen?

Damn Master, just you wait!

Lin Yaoyao walked over and helped Xiao Bai up.

"Are you alright?"

"I'm fine, Senior Sister," Xiao Bai said with a smile, brushing the dust off his body.

This fall was nothing to him.

Although he had regressed to a child, he was once a Demon Emperor, with an incredibly strong body.

Even without cultivation, his physical body was still there.

"What did you come to me for?" Lin Yaoyao asked.

Xiao Bai held out the Xuan Huang Art with both hands and said to his Senior Sister, "Senior Sister, I can't learn this technique."

Lin Yaoyao frowned upon hearing this: "You can't learn it?"

This technique is very simple; anyone can cultivate it…

Well… except for Master, he's just a loafer.

But you've already reached Foundation Establishment, shouldn't you have already cultivated a technique?

That doesn't make sense!

Lin Yaoyao saw the earnest look on Xiao Bai's face, confirmed that he really couldn't learn it, and said:

"This Xuan Huang Art is very simple."

Simple?

This Emperor has spent several hours trying to comprehend it and still hasn't succeeded; how can it be simple?

It's even a bit stronger than the demonic arts I cultivated.

"Then Senior Sister, how many days did it take you to comprehend it?" Xiao Bai asked curiously.

This Emperor spent several hours without comprehending it; Senior Sister, it must have taken you at least three days, right?

"How many days to comprehend it?" Lin Yaoyao was stunned upon hearing this, who are you looking down on?

"Senior Sister comprehended seven layers in one night," Lin Yaoyao said casually, adding, "Isn't cultivating this Xuan Huang Art something anyone with hands can do?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Bai put his little hands behind his back and wiped away sweat.

"Seven layers in one night, Senior Sister, you're not lying to me, are you?" Xiao Bai asked, looking up.

"Heh."

Lin Yaoyao chuckled and demonstrated the Xuan Huang Art.

Xiao Bai watched Senior Sister's demonstration of the Xuan Huang Art and believed her.

Seven layers in one night, Senior Sister's talent is so high.

I, this Emperor, once hailed as the number one person in the Demonic Sect, am actually not as talented as Senior Sister.

Xiao Bai carefully looked at Lin Yaoyao and noticed dragon and phoenix shadows flashing when she circulated the Xuan Huang Art.

Although Lin Yaoyao hid it very well, Xiao Bai still saw it.

Hiss!

Dragon and Phoenix bring prosperity, seven layers in one night.

Could it be…

My Senior Sister has the bearing of a Great Emperor!

Thinking of this, Xiao Bai widened his eyes.

When he looked closely at Lin Yaoyao, he noticed a special aura about her.

Imperial might!

An aura that can only be cultivated by those who have been in high positions for many years.

Senior Sister really has the bearing of a Great Emperor; at such a young age, she has cultivated Imperial might; following her in the future, maybe…

No, this Emperor is the number one person in the Demonic Path, how can I remain beneath someone for long?

I am merely lying in wait, slowly recovering my strength.

Once my strength recovers, I will settle the score with Master.

Moreover, I will make Senior Sister my maidservant.

Xiao Bai shook his head and woke up.

Lin Yaoyao saw Xiao Bai spacing out and tapped him on the head.

"No spacing out during Senior Sister's teachings!" Lin Yaoyao said unhappily.

"Yes, yes, yes, I understand, Senior Sister," Xiao Bai nodded.

Senior Sister has the bearing of a Great Emperor; following her in cultivation, my cultivation speed will also increase by leaps and bounds.

By then, this Emperor will be able to grow faster.

Thinking of this, Xiao Bai listened obediently as Senior Sister explained the technique to him.

Lin Yaoyao cleared her throat, her red lips slightly parted, and said softly, "Junior Brother, the Xuan Huang Art emphasizes the transformation of Xuan and Huang, guiding the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into the body, opening up the dantian, and storing spiritual energy."

"Among these, the most difficult is how to circulate the changes of the Zhou Tian…"

Lin Yaoyao explained very carefully.

After an incense stick's worth of time, she had clearly explained the technique.

Xiao Bai listened very carefully, and after Lin Yaoyao finished speaking, he understood the general idea.

The Xuan Huang Art is different from the demonic arts he cultivated; he was trying to cultivate the Xuan Huang Art in the same way he cultivated demonic arts, so he couldn't comprehend it for a long time.

But if he changed his way of thinking, he could comprehend it in a short amount of time.

Lin Yaoyao's explanation was like opening up his mind, letting him know the direction of cultivation.

Xiao Bai is a Demon Emperor, his talent is definitely not bad, and he understood after listening only once.

Lin Yaoyao saw that Xiao Bai had already entered a state of comprehension and felt a myriad of emotions.

Alas, Junior Brother Xiao Bai's talent is even better than Master's.

Master, ah Master, if you had half of Xiao Bai's effort, you might have already reached Foundation Establishment by now.

Lin Yaoyao sighed softly in her heart.

Forget it, if Master doesn't work hard, then he doesn't work hard; when this Emperor grows up in the future, I will take you on the path to immortality.

After thinking this, Lin Yaoyao returned to her room to cultivate.

She doesn't dare to cultivate outside now.

She either cultivates in the pond or in the thatched cottage, never outside.

Otherwise, it's easy to make people overthink.

When cultivating, she carries the Purple Phoenix Spirit with her, that thing is too easy to make people think crookedly.

…

Below the Star River Sect.

Ye Kong went to the small town and bought a dozen sets of children's clothes.

Just as he was about to take out money, he was embarrassed.

He had no money.

"Immortal, these clothes you're taking are all made of the finest ice silk; I'm not ripping you off, just fifty taels of silver."

The shop owner walked in front of Ye Kong and said.

Ye Kong looked at his empty pockets and said with an awkward smile, "That, uh, shop owner, I didn't bring any money; could you wait a moment? I'll go to the Star River Sect to ask my Senior Brother for money and then come down to pay?"

"Immortal, since you didn't bring any money, then you can put the clothes here; you can go get the money and then come back to pay; it's the same thing," the shop owner said.

Ye Kong thought about it, and that made sense.

Just as he was about to put down the clothes, Chen Changqing walked in.

"Uncle Ye Kong, long time no see," Chen Changqing said in a sarcastic tone.

"Nephew Changqing, did you bring money?" Ye Kong turned his head and asked.

Chen Changqing's face darkened upon hearing the words "Nephew", but he still replied:

"I did."

Even if I brought it, I wouldn't lend it to you; what can you do to me?

"Well, then please help me pay, Nephew Changqing; you can just ask the Sect Leader for it later," Ye Kong said to him.

"Heh, Uncle Ye Kong, why should I pay for your clothes?" Chen Changqing said coldly.

"You can pay for me first, and I'll have the Sect Leader give it to you later," Ye Kong explained.

"What if I don't give it?"

"I'll give it."

A woman with a veil walked in, took out fifty taels of silver, and handed it to the shop owner.

"Uncle," the woman called out.

"You are?" Ye Kong asked in confusion.

"Wanhuafeng's Hua Zisu Qingwan greets Uncle!" Su Qingwan saluted.

"Oh, aah, Niece, thank you," Ye Kong said in thanks, took the clothes, and left.

Su Qingwan looked at Ye Kong's departing figure, a gleam in her eyes.

Finally spoke to Uncle Ye Kong, although it was only one sentence.
