Chapter 52: The Three Xiao practice sword, Tongtian summons

On the Three Immortals Island, immortal power surged.

The Three Xiao were practicing their tacit understanding.

In order to better coordinate the Nine-Bend Yellow River Array, the three were unfolding a lively and extraordinary sparring session.

Yun Xiao's temperament was dignified, her figure as light as a swallow, holding a snow-white sword in her hand.

"Second sister, Third sister, you must be careful. Eldest sister will not show mercy."

She said that, but she didn't really use her full strength, just feinted a move and attacked Qiong Xiao.

Qiong Xiao held a colored ribbon in her hand, and as she waved it, colorful light overflowed. She dodged sideways lightly, and at the same time, drew the soft sword from her waist and swung it to counterattack.

Yun Xiao's eyes showed approval: "Second sister's reaction is okay. Third sister, it's your turn."

After saying that, she swung the long sword in her hand.

Bi Xiao giggled, her figure flashed, avoiding Yun Xiao's attack, and she didn't forget to tease: "Eldest sister, this move of yours can't touch me!"

Her beautiful eyes shifted, and in an instant, she conjured an immortal sword overflowing with spiritual light, weaving it into blossoms of sword energy as she struck directly at Yun Xiao.

The three sisters went back and forth, magic spells and sword light intertwined, reflecting their flower-like smiles.

Yun Xiao's sword technique was like a breeze brushing her face, seemingly gentle but hiding mysteries.

Qiong Xiao's attack was fierce and swift, like a storm.

Bi Xiao was lively and changeable, making people unable to fathom.

Their sparring and bickering sounds echoed on the Three Immortals Island, startling the surrounding cranes to spread their wings and fly high, and the spiritual deer stopped to watch.

The immortal mist surged with their movements, like a gorgeous and colorful painting.

……

Gu Xiu lay on the reef by the sea, watching the Three Xiao's practice and fighting with great interest.

He took out the Water-Fire Gourd and looked at it: "If this gourd could hold some wine, it would be great. That way, I could drink wine while watching Master and the two martial aunts practice sword techniques, and be a carefree wine immortal."

Unfortunately, it was filled with Nine Heavens Profound Fire and Nine Nether Profound Water.

If he took a sip, he would probably have to experience the pleasure of ice and fire.

At this time.

Outside the island, a crisp voice came.

"Three martial aunts, Fire Spirit has come to visit."

Hearing that it was Mother Fire Spirit visiting the Three Xiao, Gu Xiu didn't pay much attention and continued to lie on the reef looking at the sea. He had been busy for the Investiture of the Gods, so he should take some time to rest and organize his thoughts on how to deal with the Chan Sect next.

"Junior brother, so you are here?"

While thinking, hearing the voice, Gu Xiu was startled, turned his head to look, and found it was Mother Fire Spirit.

Mother Fire Spirit was wearing a fire neon dress, the skirt fluttering with the wind, like a burning flame.

Her figure was graceful and standing tall. Because she practiced fire-type cultivation techniques, her skin revealed a faint blush, but this also added a bit of charming style to her.

Gu Xiu sat up and asked suspiciously: "Senior sister Fire Spirit, why are you here? Are you not here to find my Master and the two martial aunts?"

"Junior brother, I am here to find you."

"Find me?" Gu Xiu was full of surprise, his brows furrowed slightly, looking at Mother Fire Spirit in confusion: "Senior sister, why are you looking for me?"

"To be precise, it is the Grand-master looking for you, so my Master asked me to come and call you to go to Biyou Palace to meet the Grand-master."

Hearing this, the surprise on Gu Xiu's face became even stronger.

Why would Tongtian look for him for no reason?

"Grand-master is looking for me? Senior sister, do you know why?"

Mother Fire Spirit shook her head: "I don't know either. My Master just told me to call you to go quickly and not to delay."

Gu Xiu frowned and fell into deep thought, secretly guessing the reason why Tongtian was looking for him.

After a while, he stood up and said: "Since that's the case, let's go."

Mother Fire Spirit nodded, and the two turned into two streams of light and sped toward Biyou Palace.

Before long, the two arrived at Jinao Island.

Disciples came and went, and they saluted when they saw them.

"Junior brother, let's go."

Gu Xiu nodded and went to Biyou Palace with Mother Fire Spirit.

Biyou Palace was filled with immortal energy and purple energy, and many terrifying visions evolved above it.

Entering Biyou Palace.

He saw Tongtian Jiaozhu sitting on the futon in front, his expression indifferent.

"Disciple greets Grand-master."

Gu Xiu and Mother Fire Spirit saluted together.

Tongtian was looking at Gu Xiu from above.

He had always been unable to figure out why Nuwa was interested in Gu Xiu, a third-generation disciple.

Looking closely, he found that Gu Xiu not only had his cultivation jump thousands of miles, but behind him was a golden wheel of merit.

Tongtian's eyes were calm, but he thought to himself, not understanding where Gu Xiu got so much merit.

"No need to be so restrained. Fire Spirit, you go down first. I will talk to Gu Xiu alone."

"Yes, Grand-master." Mother Fire Spirit looked back at Gu Xiu, her eyes full of curiosity.

After Mother Fire Spirit went out, Tongtian smiled indifferently: "Find a futon and sit down."

"Thank you, Grand-master."

The futons in Biyou Palace were only for the Four Direct Disciples, the Seven Attendant Immortals, the Three Xiao, and Zhao Gongming, these important disciples could sit.

Tongtian usually gave them special training and taught them separately.

Gu Xiu didn't expect that he, a third-generation disciple, could also sit on a futon in Biyou Palace.

Seeing that Tongtian's mood seemed good, Gu Xiu didn't have anything to worry about. Even if it wasn't a good thing to look for him, it definitely wasn't a bad thing.

Tongtian's eyes were like torches, examining Gu Xiu, and he spoke slowly: "Gu Xiu, do you know why I called you here?"

Gu Xiu said respectfully: "Disciple is dull, please enlighten me, Grand-master."

Tongtian called Gu Xiu here just to observe him well.

Now that he roughly knew the reason why Nuwa valued Gu Xiu, he didn't know what to say for a while, so he had to say.

"Recently, I have observed that your cultivation progress is quite fast, which is very good. However, the Dao has no end, and you must not be arrogant and complacent. Only by maintaining humility and constantly pursuing can you have insights and gains on this long journey of the Dao."

"Disciple will keep it in mind."

Tongtian nodded with satisfaction: "Here is a Seven-Turn Golden Pill, I will bestow it upon you."

After saying that, he took out a small bottle and pushed it forward.

The bottle flew slowly toward Gu Xiu and fell into his hand.

Gu Xiu cupped his hands: "Thank you, Grand-master, for the pill. Disciple will definitely practice diligently."

Tongtian Jiaozhu said with satisfaction: "Go, practice diligently."

Gu Xiu was confused.

Called him here to give him a pill and let him go back?

Felt a bit inexplicable.

But having a Seven-Turn Golden Pill as travel expenses wasn't bad.

Coming out of Biyou Palace, he saw Mother Fire Spirit waiting at the door.

"Senior sister."

Seeing Gu Xiu come out, Mother Fire Spirit greeted him.

"Junior brother, you came out so fast? Did Grand-master have anything to do with you?"

Gu Xiu shook his head and told the truth; anyway, there was nothing to hide.

"Grand-master praised my recent cultivation progress and specially rewarded me with a Seven-Turn Golden Pill."

A flash of surprise flashed in Mother Fire Spirit's eyes, and then she smiled: "Junior brother is truly talented, to be so valued by Grand-master. This Seven-Turn Golden Pill is an extremely precious treasure. You must use it well and strive to take your strength to the next level."

Gu Xiu nodded, but he was confused again.

Was Tongtian, this Saint, so free?

There were so many Jie Sect disciples, and there were countless second-generation disciples on Jinao Island.

How could he, a grand-disciple, be valued by the Grand-master?

There was something fishy. ===== CHAPTER 53 =====
