"Refining power" and "binding power," a dual assault.
In the blink of an eye, the remaining flesh of "Long Liulin" was completely refined.
A generation's "Nascent Soul Ancestor" was reduced to just a "Nascent Soul."
He still wanted to make a final, desperate struggle.
However, it was all in vain!
Goddess Su let out a soft hum.
She unleashed several more profound mystic arts.
The "refining power" and "binding power" jointly suppressed, crushing all resistance from "Long Liulin's Nascent Soul."
Simultaneously, one of "Long Liulin's Nascent Soul's" arms was refined.
The "Jade Pot Pill Furnace" trembled slightly.
The furnace opened.
Myriad rays of auspicious light emanated, and a rich fragrance filled the air.
These rays contained the purest "Origin Power," which merged into the bodies of the injured "Sword Renters" led by Li Xiaoyao.
Li Xiaoyao, who had fallen unconscious, soon awoke. His injuries were largely healed.
This was only natural.
The "Origin Power" of a "Nascent Soul Cultivator" to heal a group of "Golden Core Cultivators" was more than extravagant; it was exceedingly so.
"Long Liulin's Nascent Soul" was in immense pain, yet dared not act out. It weakly curled up in a corner of the "Jade Pot Pill Furnace." In its current state, it bore no resemblance to a "Nascent Soul Ancestor"; it was like a pitiful, bullied "young bride."
Terrifying indeed!
The "Born Great Female Lead" was truly terrifying!
"A Certain Senior" also trembled.
His current state of mind was similar to "Long Liulin's Nascent Soul"; he wished to find a corner to curl up in.
The "Born Great Female Lead" was too fearsome!
He couldn't afford to offend her!
Unfortunately, Goddess Su did not notice "A Certain Senior's" emotions. Instead, she was very interested in him.
"Senior, how did you transmit sound to me? This isn't a flying sword message, nor is it telepathic communication. It's not any known method of sound transmission; your voice appeared directly in my mind. How magical!"
Goddess Su, with her immense power and mysterious background, knew many secrets and ancient mysteries!
There was little in this mortal realm that Goddess Su did not understand.
To receive her affirmation, "A Certain Senior" couldn't help but feel a flicker of pride.
However, as a seasoned master of pretense, "A Certain Senior" would never reveal his true feelings.
He smiled faintly and casually replied.
"It's just a small technique, utilizing the power of destiny... hardly worth mentioning!"
"A Certain Senior" spoke nonchalantly.
As if the "destiny network" was merely a trivial trick, something not worthy of serious consideration.
Furthermore, he deliberately spoke vaguely, without even mentioning the "destiny network," leaving ample room for Goddess Su to "imagine."
This display of pretense was a masterful performance, reaching heavenly heights.
As expected, Goddess Mu Xue's beautiful eyes sparkled with admiration, her heart filled with respect and adoration for "A Certain Senior."
"Senior, you are indeed unfathomable, a model for us to forever look up to and learn from!"
Erk...
"A Certain Senior's" mouth twitched.
He truly hadn't expected that the "aloof and incomparable" Goddess Su would also engage in "flattery"!
ヽ(￣▽￣)ﾉ
But he had to admit, "flattery" spoken by a goddess had an inherent "beauty filter"; it was not disgusting or greasy, but rather brought joy and boundless happiness!
Heh, heh heh...
In this exchange between "A Certain Senior" and Goddess Su, "A Certain Senior" emerged victorious with his heavenly pretense skills.
Goddess Su's respect and adoration for "A Certain Senior" grew even stronger.
"Senior, I've decided. From now on, I will follow you and cultivate by your side, listening to your teachings..."
Su Muxue suddenly spoke, her words startling the heavens, revealing her intention.
"A Certain Senior"
( ( ( ；꒪ ꈊ ꒪；) ) )
He was scared to death!
He was genuinely close to wetting himself from fear!
The pressure Goddess Su exerted on "A Certain Senior" was simply too immense, a mountain of stress!
Every time he interacted with Goddess Su, her radiant, innate "Born Great Female Lead" aura left "A Certain Senior" breathless.
If not for "A Certain Senior's" perfected pretense skills, he would have been exposed long ago in front of Goddess Su.
Given Goddess Su's proud nature, once she discovered that "A Certain Senior" was utterly useless except for his pretense, and not the omnipotent, all-powerful "Super Senior" she imagined,
"A Certain Senior" couldn't help but tremble and hug himself tightly.
He would die!
He would be beaten to death by Goddess Su!
Especially this time, "A Certain Senior" had personally witnessed Goddess Su effortlessly and easily dispatch a supremely powerful "Nascent Soul Ancestor."
"A Certain Senior" felt even more guilty.
Cherish life, stay away from Goddess Su!
"A Certain Senior" couldn't help but shriek.
"No, you can't come find me!"
Goddess Su frowned.
"Senior, you..."
The Senior's reaction today was very strange. His panicked response was like that of a frightened child, completely lacking the usual air of lofty detachment, unapproachable wisdom, and profound mystery.
What was going on?
Damn it!
It's over!
"A Certain Senior" slapped himself mentally, repeating in his heart.
"Snap out of it, absolutely do not reveal yourself!"
As a professional Level 8 pretender, "A Certain Senior" quickly regained his composure, his tone shifting back to the "wise elder" mode.
Majestic.
Calm.
Effortless.
"I was too attached!"
"A Certain Senior" continued his pretense.
"One thought arises, and all realms come into being. One thought perishes, and all realms vanish! Alas!"
Honestly, "A Certain Senior" had no idea what these two sentences meant.
As a "heavy novel enthusiast," "A Certain Senior" had encountered these lines in Xianxia novels before.
He felt these two sentences had an exceptionally high "pretentious value," as high as two stories.
Such "pretentious" words, he had to remember them.
Today, "A Certain Senior" didn't know what else to say to Su Muxue, so he temporarily used these two "pretense quotes" to fill the gap.
Since I've said these words, it's up to you to understand them!
"The supreme realm of pretense" is to win without using any moves!
As expected, Goddess Su was completely hoodwinked.
She remained silent for a long time, then finally spoke slowly.
"Senior, I understand!"
Erk...
"A Certain Senior" was very curious.
What exactly did you understand? Let me understand too!
At this moment, Goddess Su spoke again.
"Senior, what should I do now?"
What to do? Just don't come find me, go wherever you please!
Of course, as a senior with "pretentious value," "A Certain Senior" would certainly not speak like this; he had to have "pretentious value"!
So he racked his brains again.
In this situation, what "pretense quote" should he use?
Alas! I wish I had read more books when I had the chance!
