April Witchcraft

  Opening his eyes again, Feng Xi had already returned to the summit of Xuan Yu Peak.

  Even if she thought her face was as thick as the city wall, just thinking that she had just teased her nominal father - Shan Luoyue, Feng Lixi still couldn't hold up her face, and instantly felt that her dignity had fallen to the ground...

  Alas, it's indeed one misstep leads to eternal regret!

  Just when Xi was extremely depressed in the wind, someone pushed open the tightly closed door.

  Feng Li Xi immediately held her breath, deeply afraid that the one who came in was her nominal father. After experiencing such a thing, she really didn't know how to deal with such a young and handsome father for the time being!

  A girl in a light green dress walked in with a bowl of hot congee, and Fengli finally felt slightly relieved.

  "Miss, you've finally woken up?" The young girl said softly, "Young Master Luo Yue specially instructed me, servant Green, to take good care of you!"

  Nodded, took over the hot porridge, and drank a mouthful contentedly in the wind, saying, "Where's my dad?"

  "Luoyue Gongzi he..."

  Seeing the green girl wanting to speak but stopping, a faint doubt arose in the wind.

  Suddenly thinking of Shan Luo Yue's identity, Feng Ri Xi couldn't help but sigh. If her guess was correct...

  "Is my dad now at my ancestors' - Su Yu Zhen Jun's place?!"

  "It's... Master Palm told you to wake up and go find him at Taigu Peak!" Green nodded.

  "What the heck! Why didn't you say so earlier?" He glared at Qing'er fiercely, and Fengri Xi couldn't care less about filling his own belly, immediately got out of bed and rushed towards Taigu Peak.

  Just as he ran out of the door, Xi suddenly realized that he had no idea how to get to Taigu Peak, so he reluctantly turned back and pulled Lu'er along with him.

  After a long and arduous journey through wind and rain, climbing mountains and crossing rivers, it wasn't until they finally reached the top of Taigu Peak that half a day had already passed.

  Sitting on the ground with a thud, Feng Li couldn't help but curse, "Damn it, isn't it just cultivating immortality? Why must you hide in the deep mountains and old forests? Don't you know that great concealment is hiding in plain sight, while small concealment is hiding in the woods?"

  Obviously, some Xi who is currently ranting has forgotten that she herself created the spiritual land of Ling Xiao Sect in such a broken place! As the saying goes, "self-inflicted evil, cannot be saved!"

  Although the mountain peak is indeed higher and the road is indeed longer, if her cultivation is above the 5th layer of Qi Refining, she can ride her sword and naturally doesn't need to waste time walking.

  Thinking of this, Fengri Xi couldn't help but want to slap herself to death. This single Ninth Spirit was truly a waste of a good innate talent, and it was really infuriating that she had been deceived by such a useless thing.

  Alas, after sighing several times in a row, Fengli Xi finally stood up shakily and continued walking towards the Taigu Temple.

  With the divine sense of Su Yu's true monarch covering the entire Taigu Peak, as soon as Feng Li Xi arrived, the grand gate of Taigu Hall automatically opened...

  He tidied up his somewhat disheveled clothes and followed the inner door disciples into the inner hall.

  Compared with the serene and peaceful atmosphere outside, the interior of Tai Gu Temple is solemn.

  Two people sat on the grand hall, sitting in the middle, a man wearing a white Taoist robe was probably Shan Jiu Ling's ancestor, the current leader of the Ling Xiao Sect, Su Yu Zhen Jun. He had a clear and handsome face, but his eyes were sharp, looking no more than thirty years old, yet his actual age had already exceeded one thousand years. Indeed, the cultivation world had produced an exceptionally talented and youthful prodigy.

  Sitting on the right side of Su Yu was unexpectedly someone he had met before - Xiū Wǔ Zhēn Rén ---- Xiū Wǔ. He was still wearing a pale purple Taoist robe, with an outstanding demeanor and a calm expression. Facing Feng Li's inquiring gaze, he remained composed and unruffled, as if unaware.

  When it comes to the Cloudy Peak's Dance of the Celestial Rain, I'm afraid everyone in the Ling Xiao Sect knows about it. Perhaps someone may not know who the leader of the Ling Xiao Sect is, but it's impossible for anyone not to know that Yu Yunfeng, the master of the Cloudy Peak, is a true celestial being. People recognize him not because he is one of the eight peak masters with the highest cultivation in the Ling Xiao Sect, nor because he has an extraordinary and elegant appearance that shines like the sun and moon, but because he is the most talented, youngest, and most likely to reach the Return to Void realm in a short period of time among all the cultivators in the sect.

  If we talk about the cultivation realm of the eight major peak masters, except for Yu Yunfeng, who is still a Golden Elixir True Person, the other seven major peak masters, including Shan Jiu Ling's late mother, have all reached the Nascent Soul stage or above. However, if they were to truly engage in a battle, it's likely that even the seven major peak masters wouldn't have absolute confidence in defeating Yu Yunfeng. Legend has it that at the Immortal Sect's competition thirty years ago, when Yu Yunfeng had just formed his Golden Elixir, he fought against True Lord Yuan, who was at the mid-Nascent Soul stage, and ended up with a draw. From then on, Yu Yunfeng's name shook the entire cultivation world.

  Two noble figures sat on the dais, while Xue Lianyue knelt below.

  At this point, Fengri Xi had already guessed a few things in his heart. He was afraid that Shan Luo Yue was summoned to the Taigu Hall this time to be blamed.

  "Dad... why are you kneeling there? Get up quickly!" For a moment, Feng Li Xi forgot the awkwardness of their last meeting and walked to Shan Luo Yue's side, pulling on his sleeve.

  "Ling'er... don't mind your father, go to your old grandmother's place!" Shaking her head, Shan Luoyue doted on and patted her daughter's head, softly comforting her.

  Although his daughter's behavior had frightened him the last time they met, she was still young and didn't understand anything, so he couldn't bear to blame her.

  "Ling'er, come here! Your father has done something wrong, and kneeling as punishment is the most normal thing to do!" said Su Yu Zhen Jun calmly.

  It's as expected, Su Yu is indeed going to punish Luo Yue for the incident where she was teased by the female cultivators.

  The victim is to be punished, which sounds unreasonable. However, Fengli Xi naturally knows why Su Yu wants to shift the blame to Shan Luoyue. It's because Shan Luoyue was originally a demon cultivator from the Huan Yan Sect, the largest sect of demon cultivation. Fifty years ago, he met and fell in love with Lin Fenggui, the only daughter of Su Yu Zhenjun, the leader of the Ling Xiang Sect. Shan Luoyue voluntarily left the Huan Yan Sect for Lin Fenggui and came to the Ling Xiang Sect. Initially, Su Yu Zhenjun strongly disapproved of their marriage, but eventually he was moved by their true love and acknowledged their union.

  Often written about are the true-hearted lovers who, after going through thick and thin, finally become a couple and live happily ever after like immortals. But this is not realistic at all. At least, Single Jiulian's parents were not that lucky. Even though they were in the Ling Xiao Sect, Single Luoyue's identity was always looked down upon by the Ling Xiao Sect cultivators. Originally, because of Lin Fenggui, no one dared to do anything to Single Luoyue. But after Lin Fenggui died, and Single Luoyue was not protected by Su Yu True Lord, some petty people began to bully Single Luoyue.

  Those few female cultivators last time were probably just relying on Shan Luo Yue's awkward situation to 'muddy the waters and fish'.

  Wanting to say something more, but seeing Su Yu's not-so-good complexion, Feng Li Xi could only sniff his nose, pout his mouth, glance at Shan Luo Yue who was still kneeling on the ground, and then glance at Su Yu Zhen Jun, decisively and quickly pretending to be frightened, he jumped into his arms before Su Yu got angry.

  "Ling'er, stop being naughty! Go down quickly! Don't let your Dance Master uncle see you and laugh!" Su Yu pretended to be angry, but unknowingly softened her tone, so much so that it didn't have any intimidating power at all.

  Shaking her head, Fengli Xi burrowed deeper into Su Yu's arms, refusing to let go.

  Feeling the small body in her arms trembling non-stop, she thought it was her own cold attitude that scared her. Su Yu's criticism that was about to be spat out was immediately swallowed back, and she asked softly, "Ling'er don't be afraid! What's wrong?"

  "Grandfather, please don't blame Father, okay?" Feng Li Xi wiped her nose and looked up with tears in her eyes, "It's those bad sisters who bullied Father, but Father didn't do anything wrong, why should he be punished?"

  "Ling'er, you're still young and don't understand! Don't interfere in this matter!" Su Yu coldly glanced at Shan Luo Yue who was still kneeling upright.

  "Ancestor, Ling'er has grown up! She can already distinguish right from wrong! It's clear that those sisters are in the wrong, why must Father be blamed? Is it because Ancestor still holds a grudge against Father's past identity?"

  "Ling'er..."

  "It's always like that! As the saying goes, those who achieve great things should not be bound by trivial matters. Whether it's cultivating truth or cultivating evil, the ultimate goal is to attain enlightenment and ascend. Just because the methods of cultivation are different, can't we just put aside our prejudices? I don't believe that all cultivators of truth are good people, and all cultivators of evil are bad people!

  Pouting, Fengli Xi continued in a pitiful tone, "Just like those sisters who bullied Father, although they were cultivators of truth, they were bad people. And Father, although he was once a cultivator of evil, had a pure heart and did not want to take lives. If Father had just executed those female cultivators on the spot back then, naturally no one would have sought revenge. This matter will definitely be brought before Old Ancestor, with one side being his own son-in-law and granddaughter, and the other side being the troublemakers who forced him to make a decision. It's precisely this kind of awkward situation that Father least wants to see!

  What choice will Old Ancestor make when the time comes?"

  "...". Hearing Fengri's words, Su Yu was momentarily unable to come up with a rebuttal.

  Was it really his fault? Was he too obsessed with what was right and wrong?

  Search one's own heart, Shan Luoyue has been low-key since coming to Ling Xiao Sect, doing things cautiously, never provoking right or wrong, perhaps they were indeed too harsh on Shan Luoyue!

  "Lying on Su Yu's shoulder, the wind whispered softly, 'Old Ancestor, Ling'er has already lost her mother's love, now she only has Old Ancestor and Father left, Ling'er doesn't want to see either of you get hurt again!'"

  The soft and gentle voice in the wind reached the ears of Shan Luo Yue and Su Yu, both of whom were shocked. Faced with Shan Jiu Ling's good wishes, how could they bear to refuse?

  "Alright! Luoyue, get up!" Yu Yu let out a soft sigh and waved her hand in compromise.

  "Yes! Master!" Shan Luoyue stood up and said respectfully.

  "Laozu has already forgiven your father's punishment, shouldn't Ling'er be happy now!" Su Yu patted Feng Rixi's little head and asked with a smile.

  "Hmm! Thanks, old ancestor!" Fengli Xi was excited and gave Su Yu a passionate kiss.

  The three people present were all stunned. Only Wǔ Yún Zhēn Rén was calm and collected from the beginning to now, not saying a word, with an air of being completely uninvolved.
