Even if Long Xuanyuan was unwilling to become Dao companions with Lan Jiujiu, he could still protect her until she had the ability to protect herself.
Thinking of Lan Jiujiu, Lan Xiao looked at Long Xuanyuan with even more gentleness. She looked at Lan Xiaoxiao who was standing beside Long Xuanyuan and said, "Xiaoxiao, call your sister over."
Hearing that Lan Xiao wanted Lan Jiujiu to come over, Lan Xiaoxiao's exceptionally happy face instantly turned cold. She thought of how Lan Xiao doted on Lan Jiujiu and even used his own cultivation to cover up Lan Jiujiu's Spirit Root.
On the other hand, even though she had tried to please Lan Xiao, Lan Xiao was still indifferent to her. If she was like this, then how difficult would the life of the original owner who didn't know how to please Lan Xiao be?
Lan Xiaoxiao, who was overthinking things, became even more indifferent to Lan Xiao's father-daughter relationship. It was even worse than diluted milk.
It was purely Lan Xiaoxiao's imagination to say that Lan Xiao ignored the original owner.
The cultivation world was a world where the strong were respected. As long as one had the strength, no matter how old one was, one could be respected. Lan Xiao's neglect of Lan Xiaoxiao was extremely normal in the cultivation world.
On the other hand, people tended to be more concerned about the weak children.
Although Lan Xiaoxiao had Fire and Earth Dual Spirit Roots, which was slightly worse than Lan Jiujiu's single Spirit Root, Lan Xiao wished more than once that Lan Jiujiu had Dual Spirit Roots like Lan Xiaoxiao.
Although Lan Jiujiu only had a single Water Spirit Root, she was born to be a cauldron. If she met someone with bad intentions, she would suffer.
Lan Jiujiu was the child of Lan Xiao and his deceased wife, so Lan Xiao naturally cherished her very much. And because Lan Xiao knew that his cultivation couldn't improve anymore and knew that he didn't have much lifespan left, he used his cultivation to cover up Lan Jiujiu's Spirit Root. It was clearly a scene of mother-daughter filial piety, but Lan Xiaoxiao thought it was biased.
Looking at people with biased eyes, it was inevitable that one's thoughts would be biased. This was what Lan Xiaoxiao was like.
Although she was unwilling, Lan Xiaoxiao still obediently went to call Jiujiu.
A moment later, Lan Jiujiu appeared in the main hall.
When Lan Jiujiu saw Lan Xiao, she bowed obediently. "Greetings, father."
"Get up." Lan Xiao's expression softened when she saw Lan Jiujiu. She said softly, "Have you used the elixir that I sent over yesterday?"
Lan Jiujiu nodded obediently. "Daughter has used it. Thank you, Father."
Hearing that Lan Xiao gave Lan Jiujiu an elixir but didn't give it to her, Lan Xiaoxiao's resentment increased. She looked at how Lan Xiao was looking at Lan Jiujiu lovingly, and her heart ached. She thought of how her parents favored her younger brother when she was still alive.
Later on, after she stopped going on blind dates, her mother had said more than once, "If you can't get married, how can your brother get married?"
Younger brother, younger brother, they were all younger brothers. They were clearly the children of their parents, but their parents only had one younger brother in their eyes.
Lan Xiao's face gradually overlapped with her parents' faces. Lan Xiaoxiao clenched her fists. After a moment, she lowered her eyes and thought to herself, "Since you don't have me in your heart, then don't even think about getting any benefits from me in the future."
After Lan Xiao reminded Lan Jiujiu a few words, she pointed to Long Xuanyuan and said, "This is the new disciple I took in yesterday, Long Xuanyuan. Xuanyuan, greet your two senior sisters."
Long Xuanyuan called them senior sisters in an exceptionally obedient manner, then stood at the side with his hands down.
Lan Xiao called Lan Jiujiu and Lan Xiaoxiao over today to introduce Long Xuanyuan to them. Now that they knew each other, she smiled and said, "Xuanyuan, if you have anything you don't understand in the future, you can ask Jiujiu."
Long Xuanyuan nodded and agreed. Lan Jiujiu said obediently, "Junior brother, if you don't understand anything, just come and find me."
Seeing that his eldest daughter was so sensible, Lan Xiao's heart ached even more. Looking at his youngest daughter, who had a gloomy expression and was thinking about something, Lan Xiao couldn't help but sigh and then waved her hand, "You can all leave."
Lan Jiujiu and Lan Xiaoxiao left quietly.
Walking out of the hall, Lan Jiujiu looked at Lan Xiaoxiao's ugly expression and asked with concern, "Sister, are you feeling unwell? Why do you look so pale?"
Lan Xiaoxiao turned her head and looked at Lan Jiujiu with a complicated expression. She smiled and said, "I'm fine, but sister is sick. Why do you need to eat pills all of a sudden?"
Hearing Lan Xiaoxiao's question, Lan Jiujiu was instantly speechless. The pills that Lan Xiao gave her were not for her illness, but for her to increase her cultivation. It was just that those pills were extremely rare. Because of her physique, she gave them to her first.
However, if she said this directly, it would inevitably make people feel that Lan Xiao was biased towards her. Secondly, only Lan Xiao knew that Lan Jiujiu had a Water Spirit Root Furnace Physique. Lan Xiaoxiao was still young. If she knew, it would inevitably leak out. Therefore, Lan Xiao and Lan Jiujiu hid it from Lan Xiaoxiao. Hearing Lan Xiaoxiao's question, Lan Jiujiu nodded her head and admitted that she was not in good health.
Lan Jiujiu thought that she was doing it for Lan Xiaoxiao's good. However, she did not know that Lan Xiaoxiao had already changed her mind. Her answer made Lan Xiaoxiao even more dissatisfied, and her temperament became even colder.
Lan Xiaoxiao looked deeply at Lan Jiujiu and found an excuse to leave. Lan Jiujiu did not think too much about it because of Lan Xiao's instructions. She just returned to her courtyard and worked hard to cultivate.
She was born with a Water Spirit Root and a Furnace Physique. Although she had Lan Xiao's protection in the Ling Tian Sect, Lan Xiao could not protect her forever, and she could not stay in the Ling Tian Sect forever.
Cultivating the Dao and cultivating the heart. When one's cultivation increased, one would definitely have to go out and experience the world. During the experience, Lan Xiao naturally could not be by her side. Therefore, only when her cultivation increased and she stood at the highest point, could she protect herself.
Becoming stronger was for the sake of a better life.
After Lan Xiaoxiao and Lan Jiujiu left, Lan Xiao taught Long Xuanyuan his cultivation method.
The mutated Thunder Spiritual Root was the most special one among all the Spiritual Roots. Thunder could eliminate evil spirits, so it was the most lethal one among all the Spiritual Roots. Moreover, because people with the Thunder Spiritual Root were especially close to thunder and lightning, the Thunder Tribulation that others feared was actually a great tonic for people with the Thunder Spiritual Root. Therefore, the cultivation method of the Thunder Spiritual Root was also different from other Spiritual Roots.
Lan Xiao also happened to have the mutated Lightning Spirit Root. This was also the reason why he was still able to take Long Xuanyuan under his wing after so many elders fought over him.
Lan Xiao gave Long Xuanyuan a jade tablet with the cultivation method of the Lightning Spirit Root written on it. Then, he began to teach Long Xuanyuan how to draw Qi into his body.
Long Xuanyuan already had a strong spiritual energy, so he was able to draw the Qi out of his body very quickly. Almost in an instant, he felt a stream of Qi flow through his meridians into his dantian, circulating in his body and growing bit by bit.
Feeling the restlessness of the Lightning Element in the main hall, Lan Xiao looked at the dense Lightning Element surrounding Long Xuanyuan with even more satisfaction.
