Chapter 161: Go home
Chapter 161: Go home
Yong Ji nodded in satisfaction. Although the task of guarding was assigned by his master, if Mi Xiaojing didn\'t even utter a word of thanks, he wouldn\'t feel pleased.
"You can go back and rest first, then you can start alchemy. Regardless of success or failure, you have to give it a try."
Mi Xiaojing agreed. Accompanied by Yong Ji, the two walked out of the sect\'s main hall together. Yong Ji escorted Mi Xiaojing to the entrance of Gathering Spring Courtyard before saying, "During this period, I will stay with you. Arrange a room for me in the courtyard."
Mi Xiaojing was taken aback, then agreed, "Alright." Who wouldn\'t want a free bodyguard?
Just then, Zhang Ke came out, holding a bamboo basket in his hand. Seeing Mi Xiaojing, his hand trembled involuntarily, and the basket fell to the ground. He said, "You\'re back?" His voice trembled. The past half year had been extremely tormenting. Under his restraint, everyone had been staying at home, not daring to go anywhere.
Zhang Ke\'s voice was loud, immediately alarming Mu Xiaoyin. She screamed and ran out of her room, "Ah, junior brother is back!"
This voice was even louder, directly alarming the few little ones practicing in the backyard. Luo Bo, Wei Fu, Mao Tou, and Da Zhu immediately ran out and surrounded Mi Xiaojing.
Suddenly, Mu Xiaoyin saw Yong Ji and immediately fell silent.
"Brother Xiao Mi, where have you been? You\'ve been gone for so long!"
"Yeah, yeah, we thought you didn\'t want us anymore!"
Amidst the clamor, Mi Xiaojing couldn\'t help but laugh, "It\'s okay, it\'s okay, I was just in seclusion. I\'m out now, right? How is everyone\'s cultivation going?"
Luo Bo said, "Everyone has made great progress, but we\'re running out of elixirs!"
Zhang Ke added, "They\'ve been very diligent in their cultivation, spending most of their time in the backyard. The rest of the time, they\'re practicing combat or learning other skills. I\'ve been keeping an eye on them."
Mao Tou raised his hand, "I\'ve made progress too, I\'ve made progress too!"
Mi Xiaojing patted his little head and laughed, "Good, I know, keep up the good work!"
Encouraged, Mao Tou\'s face turned red with excitement, and he grinned happily. This home was supported by Mi Xiaojing. The children trusted and admired him immensely. A word of praise from him could make them happy for several days.
"Everyone is doing well and working hard in their cultivation. Don\'t slack off. Cultivation is a matter of perseverance, you must persist every day."
Seeing everyone looking at him eagerly, Mi Xiaojing encouraged them again.
"This is Senior Yong Ji, everyone come and greet him!"
Zhang Ke and the others stepped forward to pay their respects. Yong Ji didn\'t put on any airs, he nodded and said, "Good." Then he turned to Mi Xiaojing, "Just arrange a room for me, no need to go to any trouble."
Mi Xiaojing immediately asked Zhang Ke to arrange it, "Arrange a room for senior, don\'t worry about anything else."
Zhang Ke said, "Alright, senior, please follow me." He led Yong Ji away. The Gathering Spring Courtyard was large to begin with, and after the original servants and guards left, many rooms were vacated.
After a while, Zhang Ke came back and said, "It\'s arranged."
Mu Xiaoyin whispered, "Why is he staying here with us?"
Mi Xiaojing was puzzled, "What\'s wrong?"
Mu Xiaoyin said, "He\'s an elder of the Sword Heart Hall, he holds a very high position in the sect. Moreover, he\'s the disciple of Elder Yu, and it\'s said that his combat power is extremely strong, his cultivation level is much higher than that of Old Chen."
Mi Xiaojing knew that Yong Ji\'s cultivation level was high, but he didn\'t know about his position in the sect. He didn\'t expect him to have such an impressive identity.
The Sword Heart Hall held a very high position in the Sword Heart Sect, it was the number one hall of the sect. The cultivators in it were all capable fighters, all of them outstanding in combat.
The Sword Heart Sect\'s external battles were all coordinated by the Sword Heart Hall. For example, when they destroyed the Western Evolutionary Sect, it was the Sword Heart Hall that served as the main force, sending out two Foundation Establishment early-stage experts, along with a group of cultivators, to cleanly wipe out the small Evolutionary Sect like the Western Evolutionary Sect.
However, Mi Xiaojing was not aware of all this.
No wonder Mu Xiaoyin was somewhat fearful of Yong Ji. In the Sword Heart Sect, there was no one who wasn\'t afraid of the Sword Heart Hall.
Mu Xiaoyin said, "He\'s one of the core disciples being cultivated by the sect for the next generation."
Mi Xiaojing nodded, but he didn\'t take it to heart. As long as it wasn\'t detrimental to him or his family, he couldn\'t be bothered. Moreover, it was clear that Yong Ji was here to protect him.
He had a hunch that the sect might have guessed Chen Shouyi\'s intentions, otherwise they wouldn\'t have sent an elder from the Sword Heart Hall to protect him.
Mi Xiaojing laughed, "Senior sister, let\'s not worry about this. We\'ll just carry on as usual. Elder Yong won\'t interfere with us."
Mu Xiaoyin was shocked. She didn\'t know why the sect valued Mi Xiaojing so much. It was the first time she had heard of a Foundation Establishment cultivator being followed by a Foundation Establishment elder. It was quite frightening.With everything at home in order, Mi Xiaojing finally relaxed. He didn\'t know when it started, but he had come to consider Zhang Ke and these children as his own family. Perhaps because he had no family or parents since childhood, Mi Xiaojing yearned for familial affection. With these younger brothers and Mu Xiaoyin as his senior sister, he found solace. Seeing them brought him immense peace and joy.
This state of mind was the best for those pursuing Evolutionary Immortality. Unlike Cultivators, who were engaged in fierce competition and battles, those on the path of Evolutionary Immortality needed a tranquil environment and a peaceful state of mind for effective cultivation.
Mu Xiaoyin was a prime example. Ever since she started her journey towards Evolutionary Immortality, she had become noticeably gentler. She used to be restless, running around all the time, but now she spent most of her time in her room, diligently cultivating. Her cultivation level was advancing rapidly, earning her Zhang Ke\'s admiration.
After staying at the Gathering Spring Villa for two days, Mi Xiaojing and Wang Weijun were constantly discussing, mainly about the possibility of refining the Divine Pill.
The biggest problem in refining the Divine Pill was Mi Xiaojing\'s cultivation level. His cultivation level was not high enough, and there were several hurdles he couldn\'t overcome. The first was the control of earth fire, and the second was the Condensing Elixir and collecting the elixir, especially the Condensing Elixir. With his current cultivation level, it was simply an insurmountable threshold, far too distant.
The opportunity to condense the elixir was a sudden moment in the process of alchemy, and it was difficult for others to take over. If this hurdle couldn\'t be overcome, everything else was in vain.
After discussing for two days, they still couldn\'t find a solution. Wang Weijun was also helpless. If Mi Xiaojing\'s strength was sufficient, he could solve it somehow. But now, even he was at a loss.
In the end, Mi Xiaojing figured it out. He said, "Even if we can\'t refine it, it doesn\'t matter. As long as we can convince the head elder of our sect that I will eventually be able to refine the Divine Pill one day, that\'s enough." To be continued.
