Chapter 1445: You even skipped the process?
I don't know how to describe it, but the feeling Bai Xian'er gets from being with Ye Zhangqing and them is something she's never had before.
Even the Medicine King Pavilion was, to Bai Xian'er, merely a transition, without a trace of belonging, like staying at an inn.
If you don't want to stay, you just leave, and there's no feeling of home.
That's also why Bai Xian'er felt no hesitation at all when leaving the Medicine King Pavilion, and certainly no reluctance.
After hearing Bai Xian'er's account, Ye Zhangqing nodded.
"So the person you're talking about is your sister, right?"
"Yes."
Bai Xian'er didn't hide it, and gave a slight nod.
She and her sister were both born in the Demon Realm, and her sister's parents were sworn brothers-in-arms with Bai Xian'er's parents.
But shortly after her sister was born, the two died at the hands of the demon clan, over merely a trivial matter.
However, such things were commonplace back then.
Afterwards, the parents took the sister in to raise her by their side, and later had Bai Xian'er.
"Then which assassin organization?"
Ye Zhangqing asked again, and Bai Xian'er fell silent for a moment before replying in a hoarse voice.
"Yongye."
"Yongye?"
"Yes, it's one of the strongest forces in the Zhu Tian Wan Jie, the largest assassin organization, with influence spread throughout the Zhu Tian Wan Jie."
"Moreover, it's said that within Yongye there exists an Ancestor Realm."
When Yongye is mentioned, Bai Xian'er's eyes fill with solemnity and dread; clearly, she feels fear at those two words.
Just hearing this, Ye Zhangqing found it puzzling and asked curiously.
"If that's the case, can Yongye give up hunting you?"
Yongye is so strong; according to Bai Xian'er, there is an Ancestor Realm within Yongye, although she has never seen it.
Moreover, the number of Emperor Sovereigns within Yongye has long reached an extraordinarily terrifying amount.
Put it this way, Yongye has many branches across the Zhu Tian Wan Jie, and the person in charge of each branch cultivates at the Emperor Sovereign Realm, with none below that level.
Such a colossal entity, and moreover an assassin organization, would it let a traitor go?
Even though Bai Xian'er now has Emperor Sovereign cultivation, for such a massive force as Yongye, it seems she wouldn't need to be wary.
Regarding that, Bai Xian'er shook her head.
"I've thought about that point too, but there's no answer, and I don't know why Yongye would cease hunting me."
"At first I thought it was because I hid well, or because of my cultivation, but neither was correct."
As an assassin organization, if Yongye sets its mind on finding someone, it can surely find them.
Therefore, Yongye giving up hunting Bai Xian'er is indeed strange.
But Bai Xian'er herself doesn't know either; she only knows that after she broke through to the Emperor Sovereign Realm, Yongye's assassins never appeared again.
Upon learning these things, Ye Zhangqing laughed.
"Never mind, it's all in the past; haven't you also started a new life now?"
"That's what you said."
Hearing that, Bai Xian'er glanced at Ye Zhangqing in surprise, then broke into a smile.
"By the way, how confident are you about meeting your sister this time?"
"None."
Bai Xian'er replied honestly, her sister is different from her; back then, her sister was one of the most outstanding among their group.
She was greatly favored by the teacher who instructed them at the time, and her loyalty to Yongye could be said to be absolute.
Or perhaps she was deeply brainwashed; when Bai Xian'er defected, her sister even personally moved to hunt her down.
She angrily questioned why she would betray Yongye, for if Yongye hadn't saved them, they would have died long ago in the Wújìn Xīnghǎi.
No matter how Bai Xian'er explained or what she said, her sister simply wouldn't believe her.
In the end, if her sister hadn't been reluctant to strike, Bai Xian'er would likely be dead.
She still remembers what her sister said back then.
"Xian'er, this time I let you go, but our sisterly bond ends here; if we meet again, I won't hold back."
So whether she can convince her sister, Bai Xian'er has no confidence, and can only try.
Or perhaps she pins her hopes on Ye Zhangqing, maybe there's a slight chance.
After all, Ye Zhangqing's cooking skill, in Bai Xian'er's view, can sometimes be a real killer weapon.
Isn't it also because of this that she chose to join? At the beginning it was just that, a very simple purpose.
Upon hearing Bai Xian'er's answer, Ye Zhangqing nodded, and could only take things step by step.
Just as Bai Xian'er's words fell, suddenly Ye Zhangqing's body shuddered, his aura surged instantly, and within a few breaths he broke through to the Great Saint Realm, Great Accomplishment.

Watching Ye Zhangqing suddenly break through with no sign at all, Bai Xian'er was stunned.
She had never seen Ye Zhangqing break through before; at this moment, her whole face was shocked, her eyes widened round, and her mouth gaped open.
She stood dazed for a while before muttering a sentence.
You... what are you doing?
Ye Zhangqing, however, smiled helplessly.
"Sorry, I broke through by accident."
Huh???
His breakthrough is different from others'; with enough good reviews he can break through directly, there's no bottleneck.
But Bai Xian'er couldn't accept it for a moment—who breaks through like that?
She considered herself well-informed, having traveled the Zhu Tian Wan Jie these years, visiting many places and meeting many people.
She had also encountered many top prodigies of the younger generation, and her own talent back then was outstanding.
Otherwise, Yongye wouldn't have cultivated her; it's not exactly a benevolent place.
But after living so many years, even with her Emperor Sovereign Realm perspective, she had never seen such an absurd thing.
Just a second ago you were still talking, and the next second, with a bang, you broke through directly?
The key is, Ye Zhangqing's cultivation isn't low; if it were something like the Heavenly Human Realm, Bai Xian'er might accept it more easily.
But damn it, Ye Zhangqing is currently at the Great Saint Realm; the Great Saint Realm, placed in some smaller worlds, would already be considered a top expert.
At this level of cultivation realm, can you just say you'll break through and do it?
Even if you're a top prodigy, you'd normally need to retreat and make some preparations, right? Now you've skipped the process entirely, just saying you break through and you do.
Staring blankly at Ye Zhangqing, that just now truly shattered Bai Xian'er's cognition—can a breakthrough really be played like this?
Can you not be so childish about it.
"You... you used to be like this too?"
