Chapter 114: Sisters Reunion

Sisters Reunion

In the Langhuan Zhou Tian, there is no such thing as a heavenly tribulation for cultivators to achieve Foundation Establishment or Golden Core. Even if they break the core to form an infant, it depends on their own techniques, and many pass the Nascent Soul pass silently. After all, in this universe, cultivators have already experienced countless difficulties and obstacles in their daily lives, and there is no achievement of the upper realm by closing the door to practice. If there is another tribulation, it seems that the way of heaven is too harsh. Therefore, like Ruan Ci, those who achieve Foundation Establishment in Zixu Heaven, outsiders have no way of knowing, that is, the sect has its own secret method to explore the progress of disciples' cultivation. Ruan Ci came out of Zixu Heaven and sent He Tong to ask at Zhonglv Peak. Sure enough, she learned that Ruan Rong had come here to register a few months ago. After Foundation Establishment, she was officially accepted into the sect by the Sect Master and became an inner disciple of the Seven Star Small Abode.

When Ruan Ci was accepted into the sect by True Person Wang, Zixu Heaven also opened a few tables of banquets, and many Grotto-Heavens in the sect gave face and sent people to congratulate, but the congratulatory gifts were collected by True Person Wang. Ruan Ci asked Seeing Tianlu, and Seeing Tianlu said, "The Seven Star Small Abode didn't have such a layout. They have many disciples in that line. If they open a banquet for one, the Sect Master will inevitably be edited as greedy."

They were sitting on Zhuiyue Cliff talking at this time, Ruan Ci was bolder, and thought in her heart, "This doesn't mean that Master opening a banquet is to collect gifts, very greedy..."

But after thinking about it, she didn't say it, frowned and said, "Cousin is a sword envoy after all, how can she be ordinary? Maybe there are other concerns. Forget it, He Tong, you go to the Seven Star Small Abode to send a post, saying that the disciples from South Zhuzhou will gather at Zhuiyue Cliff within the month, and ask if Cousin has time and can go out."

He Tong promised, hurriedly went, and came back, "Ruan Niangzi replied that she can gather, and asked the little one many questions."

Although the sisters entered the sect together, they didn't recognize each other when they met thirty years ago, and didn't say a word, didn't dare to look at each other. Thirty years later, they can finally communicate with each other. This is also because both sides are making progress in cultivation. As long as one person's pace is slow, the meeting is still far away. Ruan Ci's heart was surging, and she forced a smile, "What did Cousin ask? Nothing more than whether I am good."

He Tong lowered his head and said, "Exactly, Ruan Niangzi asked if the master was favored in the Zixu Heaven sect, if the daily practice was smooth, and many others, nothing more than this meaning."

The feeling of pitying the sister, which can be felt, Ruan Ci's nose was sore, and she said to Wang Wang Panpan, "Rong Jie has also experienced many things, and is much more realistic than before."

Before she finished speaking, she almost shed tears, and hurriedly endured it. She didn't want to be peeped at by others in the Shangqing Sect about the relationship between her and Ruan Rong. After all, she was tied to the Donghua Sword. If she was not careful, she would have to cause right and wrong.

Since Ruan Rong was coming, Ruan Ci naturally tried her best to arrange the banquet. Although she hoped that her sister would know that everything was fine in the sect, she didn't dare to be too extravagant. She pondered these things for days, and soon it was the day of the appointment. Lin Xianen brought seven or eight senior brothers and sisters, walked into Zhuiyue Cliff, introduced each other, and communicated their names. These disciples were all from South Zhuzhou, and their defense against real names was very loose. Their style was very different from the outside of the Shangqing Sect.

In the past, there were more than ten disciples who entered the sect from South Zhuzhou, but in these thirty years, five or six were inevitably damaged. Everyone talked about tea and leisure, and said one by one. One was attacked in the wild forest of Zijing Mountain and was chewed by the raised spiritual beast on the spot. The others were all looking for Foundation Establishment external medicine, and they didn't come back after going out. Once the life incense left in the sect was extinguished, it was life gone.

There are dangerous places outside the grotto-dwelling of Zijing Mountain. This is what everyone knew early on. That disciple was so bold and reckless, and was chewed by the spiritual beast without anyone coming out. Death is death. The others are not lacking in those who are valued by upper-level cultivators. Once they open their meridians, they will be accepted into the inner sect, but they are also very high-spirited, only willing to earn Foundation Establishment external medicine with their own skills, but are unwilling to accept the gifts of teachers, or the servants to lead the line, and the gifts of the nine countries' forces.

Ruan Ci couldn't help but sigh, "Central Continent is not a place like our South Zhuzhou. Without Foundation Establishment cultivation, it is really impossible to mention going out. It is extremely dangerous to go out and practice after Foundation Establishment. Those few are still arrogant."

Everyone agreed deeply, Lin Xianen sighed, "Sister is also very careful on weekdays. I heard from my maid that the caravans trading in the nine countries rarely have cultivators below Foundation Establishment, so I know that below Foundation Establishment, it is really difficult to walk outside, so I have advised, but there is no notice outside for this kind of thing. They don't believe it, and there is no way."

She had succeeded in Foundation Establishment for several years, built an eight-layer high platform, and spent a lot of time widening the Jade Pool, which was not a waste of effort. Changyao Baoguang Heaven took great care of her, just waiting for Zhou Zhou Yanqing to leave seclusion and officially accept her into the sect. Among the disciples in South Zhuzhou, her achievements were only second to the two Ruan sisters. The other seven or eight cultivators, some were Qi Refining round, just waiting for the opportunity of external medicine, some were after Foundation Establishment, cast into the door of the Nascent Soul True Person who had no foundation, and two or three, although Foundation Establishment, but not valued, were ready to serve as managers in the outer sect. This is also the final destination of many disciples of the Shangqing Sect.

Outer sect disciples actually have many achievements in Golden Core, and even fight for Nascent Soul. On the surface, the difference between the two sides is not that obvious, but only those like Ruan Ci who are accepted as inner disciples by Grotto-Heaven True Persons and serve by their side know the difference. In the Hengze Heaven trip, outer sect disciples were not even qualified to participate. The gap in knowledge has determined the end of the Dao path of both sides. But having said that, if outer sect disciples are careful, it is not hopeless to be safe for a lifetime. Whether it is to enjoy hundreds of years of leisure or to pursue the ethereal upper realm depends on personal interests.

Just looking at it now, the gap between inner and outer sects is not that obvious, so the sense of loss of these people is not very strong, but they are very enthusiastic about clinging to Ruan Ci. Ruan Ci is also very polite to them, and naturally won't say anything boring. Seeing a junior brother named Chu who only lacked one external medicine for Foundation Establishment and was still raising spiritual jade, and was short of more than a thousand, she took out a Qiankun bag and handed it over, smiling, "Wait for Junior Brother to succeed in Foundation Establishment, then come back to return it to me. Zijing Mountain is not far from a Green Jade Bright Hall. I went there to practice and got more than three thousand spiritual jade. Junior Brother go once, and it will be enough."

She also said, "I want to collect interest. Nine out and ten return, Junior Brother don't forget."

Everyone laughed, "What kind of interest is this? Ci Senior Sister, come with nine out and twenty return!"

Between talking and laughing, they were secretly envious of Ruan Ci's generosity. Only most of them had just reached Foundation Establishment and were still stabilizing their realm, and they had to handle the sect's errands first, so they were very tight on hand. Even if they wanted to go out to kill monsters and take treasures, they couldn't.

A group of people were talking lively, He Tong stepped in and said, "Ruan Niangzi is here!"

Ruan Ci ah-ed, got up to greet her out of the door, and everyone followed behind. Only then did she see a white cloud slowly falling in front of the courtyard door on the horizon. With a creak, the courtyard door opened lightly, and Ruan Rong stepped in with a smile, her face containing precious light, wearing a green skirt, with a country-toppling color and a city-toppling appearance. When they were in Song Guo, the Ruan family often said that the two women were equal in appearance. Now thirty years later, Ruan Ci was still like a bean-card, often revealing greenness, rarely showing daughter's charm, but Ruan Rong had grown into an apricot-eyed, peach-cheeked, charming and agile girl.

Everyone saw it and was stunned. They couldn't help but cross Ruan Ci and greet Ruan Rong. The attitude had to be much more enthusiastic than when they first entered the sect. After all, they didn't know Ruan Rong's identity, or didn't know the weight of the Donghua Sword. Even if they didn't say these, Ruan Rong worshipped under the Seven Star Small Abode, and her future was undoubtedly the best of everyone, even Ruan Ci had to retreat to a house.

Ruan Ci stood in the local area, looking at the smile on her sister's face, her heart was already shaking. If it weren't for several experiences, her temper would have been much more stable, and she would have jumped into her sister's arms long ago. At this time, after several times of patience, she finally suppressed her feelings, looked left and right, and saw that only Lin Xianen was standing behind her, couldn't help but smile slightly, and said to Lin Xianen, "Lin Sister, why don't you come forward?"

Lin Xianen smiled, "I am not familiar with Big Ruan Senior Sister, I am very shy, whoever I get to know first, I get to know."

She didn't see shyness when she walked around Zhuiyue Cliff and Changyao Baoguang Heaven before. The two smiled at each other, Ruan Ci said, "It doesn't matter, Rong Jie is the Sect Master's disciple, her status is naturally noble, let's go to greet her too."

Carrying Lin Xianen, she walked up, caught Ruan Rong, and knelt down to salute, but it was the old Song Guo etiquette. "Thirty years have not seen, Sister is safe?"

Ruan Rong was very kind to her, stepped forward and hurriedly helped her up, also a big sister's spirit, "Still safe, Sister, have you practiced well in these decades? In the past, I asked Master to entrust you under the Zixu Heaven sect. I was also thinking about it in my heart, just afraid that you would be naughty and offend the teacher, which would make me not know how to face Master."

Everyone knew that Ruan Ci worshipped under Zixu Heaven, which was actually the sword envoy's support, and couldn't help but sigh at Ruan Ci's good luck. Worshipping under Zixu Heaven, cultivation progress was faster than Ruan Rong. Some people with a little knowledge whispered, saying that those who reach Foundation Establishment fast may not be good, and so on.

Ruan Ci was a little embarrassed and said in a low voice, "Not very naughty."

Her face was slightly red, how could everyone not know the bottom? They were all laughing and joking. While talking, they returned to the room, sat down as guests and hosts, and opened the banquet. Ruan Rong couldn't help but ask about Ruan Ci's cultivation, and she was also a big sister, which made people admire her even more, and increased the intention of clinging.

A meal was eaten happily, and everyone said goodbye one after another. Ruan Ci didn't keep them much, just said to Lin Xianen, "Lin Senior Sister, you come to find me tomorrow, I have something to tell you."

Lin Xianen was about to go out to practice, and also had many things to ask Ruan Ci. Hearing this, she smiled knowingly. Ruan Ci sent everyone to the courtyard, watched the escape lights fly away, returned to the room, and then threw herself on Ruan Rong, asking, "Rong Jie, have you suffered?"

Ruan Rong was recognized as a sword envoy in South Zhuzhou at that time, and many Nascent Soul great powers took action to fight for it. She was a mortal who had not opened her meridians, but she kept secrets for Ruan Ci in the battle of Nascent Soul, and was willing to be a substitute. How can the bitterness be described in a word? In the same sect, but could not meet Ruan Ci, she was the sword envoy in everyone's eyes. How could there be fewer trials and temptations in these years? Ruan Ci was free and easy, only found trouble by Chi Pengpeng, and knew the rest of the movements in the sect, all of which were borne by Ruan Rong.

At this time, they reunited after a long separation, but Ruan Rong didn't mention a word, hugged her sister tightly, and asked with choked sobs, "Where is my sister? My sister has suffered."

She was not asking at all, the meaning was actually very affirmative. Think about Ruan Rong, a substitute, who had so many setbacks, Ruan Ci, as the main envoy, how could she have fewer trials?

Ruan Ci wanted to say that she was smooth and didn't suffer much, but thought of the pain of refining Donghua at that time, the tempering of Dao foundation in the Treasure Cloud Sea, and the endless worries and hesitation in her heart when she occasionally calculated the future, she couldn't say this. Ruan Rong looked at her face, her eyes turned red, hugged Ruan Ci tightly, and cried, "My sister has suffered!"

Ruan Ci couldn't help but cry loudly, thinking of herself, and feeling sorry for her sister who could have been out of the game, but finally entered the game because of her, and didn't know how much bitterness she had eaten. The two sisters hugged and cried, Ruan Ci said intermittently while crying, "Rong Jie, I don't feel bitter if you don't cry, I feel uncomfortable if you cry."

This is also the truth. She didn't feel how difficult she was, and often felt that she was luckier than others. At this time, Ruan Ci finally knew that some times she felt pain when someone felt sorry for her. It was just that there was a Ruan Rong like this, who didn't care about her cultivation progress at all, only cared about whether she suffered, so she knew how lonely she was originally.

I don't know why, she thought of True Person Wang again, secretly saying, "If Master knew I cried, he would definitely ridicule and belittle me."

She forced herself to stop her tears, handed the handkerchief to Ruan Rong, and Ruan Rong cried enough, gradually stopped her tears, but felt a little embarrassed. At this time, she had completely grown into an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl, slightly shy, just like a clear lotus after rain, beautiful. She took a cup of spiritual tea, ate a few mouthfuls, wiped her eyes, and said, "The South Zhuzhou disciples just now, except for Lin Xianen who followed you, are all unbearable to support. You must keep it in your heart."

But she had the taste of a big sister again, just not as deliberate as before. Ruan Ci couldn't help but smile, nodded and said, "I know, Rong Jie, I am not a fool. Didn't Second Aunt often fear that I would be smarter than you in the past, and that I would cover your limelight?"

Mentioning Second Aunt, her heart was slightly sad again, and the two sisters met, and they all saw what they were thinking: at this time, they were in this fairy palace, calling the wind and rain, flying across the void, the past of Song Guo in South Zhuzhou was naturally less and less remembered, just like a dream. But these old people, if even they don't remember them, who else remembers? Even the last trace is not there.

But, the fairy road is long, the past is still warm, three hundred years later, three thousand years later? How long can the painful past that connects the three Ruan children be remembered? If even the origin is lost, the world is vast, where is the destination?

Ruan Rong sighed slightly, held Ruan Ci's little hand tightly, and whispered, "No matter what, you and I are sisters, and there is also Qian Ge, the three of us have long-lasting friendship, take care of each other, the blood relationship will never fade."

Actually, the blood relationship between Ruan Qian and Ruan Rong and Ruan Ci is already very light, and it is out of the five clothes with Ruan Ci early, but Ruan Ci knows Ruan Rong's meaning, couldn't help but smile, "That bag of sweet jade, Sister still keeps it?"

Ruan Rong took out a brocade bag from her arms, twisted a piece of spiritual jade, and sent it to Ruan Ci's mouth. Ruan Ci licked it with her tongue, and the sweet taste melted, still the taste of the year.
