Bai Hua Sect

As he listened, Wang Li just stood in place.

Seeing the Saint's expression, it doesn't seem like she's upset or anything like that, more like a sense of relief.

'Good Good, Its safe.'

Bai Hua Fairy waved her hand as the Earth Sword flew from Wang Li's hand towards the ten thousand flower throne.

Then she proceeded to use Lock Seals to hide the entire flower fountain together with her throne from sight, making Wang Li unable to see it but he knew what she was doing.

She lightly strokes the sword, softly said: "You're so strong that with you alone, he's able to win against most enemies, how could he grow that way?"

A deep as mountain voice was heard from the sword: "I will seal my full strength away, as he increases his cultivation, I will unlock a bit more each time, only until he reaches Ascension will he unlock all of my power"

Bai Hua Fairy said: "Then there's no problem"

"Take care" she said

"You take care as well. Also, the events of that time, it wasn't your fault" the deep voice said.

Bai Hua Fairy wanted to, but couldn't laugh, only replied: "The sect is already not here anymore, go, go create a new history"

The sword floated on the air, after the hilt lightly rest on Bai Hua Fairy for a bit, it slowly floated away.

Bai Hua Fairy swung her hand, releasing the Lock Seals.

The Earth sword quickly flew back into Wang Li's hands.

"This sword's power is too vast, so in order to prevent others from greed, I've put Lock Seals on it" Bai Hua Fairy said to Wang Li.

Then as if she suddenly remembered something, she added: "Qi training realm can use a strike up to 30,000 tons"

"Thank you Saint" Wang Li nodded as he thanked her not minding the seal in the slightest.

He also understands really well, knowing that Bai Hua Fairy's action is for his own good.

If a weapon is too strong, the sword cultivator will become reliant on it, making their skills harder to improve.

Not to mention, a single strike having 30,000 tons' worth of strength is already very strong, it could be considered top-notch within the ranks of qi training realm weapons.

Bai Hua Fairy looked a bit at the youth, then at the sword in his hand, suddenly she thought of something.

Opening her jade-white hands, she made a hand seal.

Outside Bai Hua capital city, inside a certain rice field, a pig disappeared.

At the forked road, the white goose standing on the green rock that was still shouting loudly: "None of you rush, line up, next person"

Suddenly, the white goose disappeared, making every cultivator who was waiting went into an uproar.

Bai Hua Fairy's hand seals didn't change, as her spirit energy continued to flow.

On the river, inside a new wooden boat, the old ferryman disappeared.

Bai Hua Fairy continued.

Inside Bai Hua Palace, a female maid disappeared.

She closed her eyes, as a second later, numerous scenes were being shown in front of her sight.

"How clever, just like myself back then" she muttered.

That year she was only 18, after stealing her senior brother's Spirit talisman, she snuck into the Secret Library and learned all 3 of the sect's strongest scriptures.

As the elders wanted to punish her, she quoted the sect's constitution ——whoever can master all three of the sect's Secret Arts is to become a candidate for the next generation's sect master, someone not to be humiliated.

When the elders didn't believe her, she used all three of them one after another.

Back then, all the elders' faces were especially interesting.

Remembering old memory, Bai Hua Fairy's slightly downed mood improved.

Seeing Wang Li's performance on the way, Bai Hua Fairy was even more pleased.

Wang Li of course knows what she's doing, but his face remains unchanged, stood silently waiting for her decision.

That's right, Bai Hua Fairy had a certain Divine Skill.

One As Ten Million.

Within the ranks of Divine Skills, this one was also particularly high-rate.

No matter who it is, once they set foot into Bai Hua Immortal country, every person they meet on the way, every animal, any and all of them could be Bai Hua Fairy's clones.

A bird in the sky, a normal citizen on the streets, a servant in an official's estate, the bellboy and owner of an inn, even deep underground, in an ancient ruin, as long as it's still in Bai Hua Immortal country, even a hibernating snake or an ant that's crawling on the ground could be her.

Almost every single creature is her clone.

In the past life, after she used all her strength to take on and push back the whole demon army, with a look of regret, her body went into a Space crack as she left the world to reincarnate.

As she left, the whole of Bai Hua country also disappeared, and the only ones left were the cultivators.

It was then that everyone understood, inside Bai Hua Immortal country, the only ones that weren't her clones were her disciples.

No one knows just why Bai Hua Fairy did what she did, since she was already at peak Sainted realm, many cultivators suspected that she did it in order to find out the secret of breaking through Sainted realm. Wang Li also doesn't know why she did this as it was never mentioned in the novel.

Because of that, within all the cultivators who go here to attempt a Bai Hua list, if they show even the smallest of actions that Bai Hua Fairy doesn't like, they'll be found out immediately.

And this is also the reason why Bai Hua Fairy take in very few disciples.

"Right now I have a very important question that I want to ask you" Bai Hua Fairy spoke.

Wang Li answered: "Please go ahead and ask, your Eminence"

Bai Hua Fairy looked at Wang Li from above, her face shows no emotion, and asked: "Are there any other people in your family? Why did you join the army?"

As soon as Bai Hua Fairy finished asking, she had already secretly used a hand seal in her sleeves.

No lies can ever fool her.

Wang Li didn't think that she would ask this, but within a single second of thinking, he had already abandoned the choice of lying.

One of Bai Hua Fairy's clones herself said that he can't fool her with lies.

A Saint will always have a way that you can't imagine to find out the truth.

Wang Li thought for a bit, then cleverly answered: "This humble one's parents died in an accident immediately after giving birth, so I could only struggle alone to grow up. Although I had foster parents taking care of me that wasn't the case for others around me. In this chaotic age of war against the demons, I joined the army only wanting to learn a thing or two, get a bit stronger so that I can survive."

What he's saying here contained his life on both worlds, at the same time conveyed his life very clearly.

Although Wang Li has parents, they aren't his biological parents. They were friends of his biological parents who took him as their own son. This was something that his foster parents told him when he turned 12. Although surprised, Wang Li did not mind in the slightest. In his previous life he was an orphan who was abandoned by the orphanage at the age of 6 for reasons he never got to know so he was happy that someone looked after him with love in this life.

Bai Hua Fairy looked at him, the spirit energy wave she received from her hand seal also didn't show any falsehood.

He was able to say it so simply, but all of it was the truth.

No one knows, that Bai Hua Fairy herself was also an orphan.

After she became a Saint, she had hidden away both her background and past experiences, so that no one can ever check on it and find her weakness.

Bai Hua Fairy's expression relaxes, even her eyes held a bit more closeness than before.

"If it's as you said, then you're an orphan" she purposefully asked "This Saint is curious, how does it feel to struggle to survive, alone?"

Wang Li was a bit confused, not knowing why the Saint would ask this, but he still answered seriously.

This time, he doesn't even need to think too much before answering.

Recalling all the times of bitterness and struggle in his previous life, Wang Li naturally replied: "To be alone in this world, the upside is that I never have to worry about someone else being sad and mourn my death"

Bai Hua Fairy didn't comment on it, only asked: "The downside?"

Wang Li smiled and answered: "There are 2 downsides, one is the no matter if I'm eating, fighting, or cultivating, I'll always be outnumbered"

"Two is when seeing someone else's joyful birthday with friends, I can't help but feel the need to avoid it"

Wang Li didn't like celebrating birthdays but his foster parents would celebrate it all the time so he would force himself for them. Luckily there are only 2 birthdays in a year he has to attend as his parents both have birthdays on the same day.

This simple answer, as Bai Hua Fairy heard it, she couldn't help but grab the handles on her throne.

Five deep finger marks, as sharp as a knife was carved into the white flower-shaped Immortal Jade.

What Wang Li spoke about, she herself had also experience hadn't she?

Brilliant talent, a beauty like no other, after her sect was destroyed, left without a place to call home, while drifting in the world she had to constantly hide herself, her whole life of struggles, blood and tears couldn't possibly be any less than that Wang Li had been through.

Bai Hua Fairy's emotions fluttered, as she began to seriously evaluate the youth standing before her.

On the youth was a slight foul smell, a bit of thinking and you'd know it had come from a demon.

This type of stench must have been in order to chase away other demons.

Bai Hua Fairy herself has also been through mountains of corpses and blood, so this type of stench doesn't bother her. In fact, it made her realize the youth standing here definitely wasn't simple.

Looking closer, the youth still had scars on his body that resemble claws of demon beasts and some scars came from a blade, most probably a cultivator.

Myself all those years ago was also like this wasn't I?

Furthermore, this youth has taken my old sect's heirloom sword.

The Earth sword's sword spirit could be called my companion for half a lifetime, he had been through the toughest of times with me, am I so cruel as to just let it go and not care anymore?

Bai Hua Fairy lightly closed her eyes, then opened them, softly asking: "Would you agree to join my Bai Hua Sect?"

Wang Li's heart jumped.

This question, is the aspiration and life-long dream of numerous cultivators.

Wang Li couldn't believe this at all.

This is Bai Hua Sect!

Wang Li calmed the intense emotions in his heart, just barely, and seriously answered: "I would be honored to"

Once he's said that, there's no going back anymore.

He would now be tied to Bai Hua Sect from now on but he doesn't regret it one bit.

Wang Li's situation was also a series of coincidences.

If It wasn't because everything was happening similar to Gu Qing Shan's situation he might not have been asked to join the sect.

If it wasn't because his Kendojutsu Style: Water Flow Severance had caught Bai Hua Fairy's eyes for talent, so that she would let him choose a sword as a replacement, he wouldn't have the chance to pick the Earth sword.

It was because of all his experiences, together with all the correct answers that he had given to Bai Hua Fairy questions before, that had led to her giving thought to this.

These series of events, if even one of them was missing, then Bai Hua Fairy wouldn't have thought about inviting him.

Without all these prerequisites, even if Wang Li had gained cultivation as a Great Sword Saint, he wouldn't even have caught Bai Hua Fairy's glance.

Strong people that are weaker than the Saints are as numerous as the stars in the sky, and the Saints who stands on top of all cultivators would not look down to see them so easily.

"That's good"

Bai Hua Fairy's face was still covered with a thin veil, but the joy in her voice at the moment, even Wang Li could feel it.

"Your bow, its name is Night Rain isn't it?" she suddenly asked.

This unexpected question stumped Wang Li for a bit before he was able to reply.

In the scroll he did indeed used the Night Rain he borrowed from a friend.

Bai Hua Fairy's question is like a puzzle, making people unsure of what to say.

He could only reply: "Yes it is"

Bai Hua Fairy suddenly laughed to herself, in her eyes was a sense of understanding.

"That bow belonged to Heaven's Limit Saintess Ning Yue Xi correct? That's fine, as this Saint's disciple, she is certainly a fit for you"

Yes, Wang Li's friend is indeed Heaven's Limit Saintess Ning Yue Xi. She just started cultivating a year before him and should be at Early Foundation Establishment realm. They had met on the battlefield where they became close friends. She was crowned that title for her talent. She has yet to be betrayed by her senior brother so she doesn't hate sword cultivators yet.

"..." Wang Li couldn't say anything to that.

Bai Hua Fairy was now laughing lightly, showing a completely different side to her.

'It seems that she's fully accepted me as her disciple, that's why she's this relaxed', Wang Li thought to himself in relief.

The world outside all say that Bai Hua Fairy is committed to cultivation, and is immersed in researching spells, not caring a bit about mortal matters.

But who would believe that her true self is actually really mischievous.

"You're my 2th disciple, I'll have to think for a bit about what title to give you"

Bai Hua Fairy then said

"What title would be good then?"

Seeing that Bai Hua Fairy was still thinking deeply about a matter that didn't matter, Wang Li was in a bit of a rush.

Wang Li spoke softly: "Sain —–no, Shifu, mother is still waiting for you to save her"

As she was called Shifu, Bai Hua Fairy's attitude was completely different from before.

She nodded: "Teacher forgot about that for a bit, I should go save her indeed"

Then Bai Hua Fairy clasped her hands together, creating a hand sign and spoke in a low voice: "Divine Skill, Flesh Incarnation"

'What is she doing? Isn't mother in the country?'

Two other Bai Hua Fairy appeared from her body and landed in the palace.

"I'll go save her"

One of the Bai Hua Fairy said that, swung her sleeves and disappeared.

After that, another Bai Hua Fairy said: "Someone from Humanity is still supplying that demon spider, I'll go deal with him."

The two of them made different hand signs and disappeared from the palace at the same time.

Sitting on the ten thousand flowers throne, Bai Hua Fairy suddenly spoke: "Come to think of it, it has been quite a long time since I've fought demon's beasts"

"Secret Arts, Bai Hua Mirror"

As she waved her hands nonchalantly, the whole palace disappeared around them.

Wang Li noticed the scenery around him was that of the wild, quickly retreating backwards.

And then, the retreating scenery slowed down.

This sight must've come from to the first Bai Hua Fairy incarnation that left.

Within just a few dozen seconds, she has already reached the frontline.

A few miles away, a demon beast stood, a few demon beasts emitting a powerful aura was also standing near it.

In that small patch of land, a few demons and beasts were encircling a few cultivators, using the wheel tactic.

They're using the attrition method to gradually whittle down the cultivators below.

Wang Li concentrated his sight on them, and saw his parents among them.

'Mother!!! Father!!!'

'Is this how they died in the original without my intervention?'

Suddenly, he felt fortunate to have come to attempt the sword list in a timely manner.

"A great cultivator from the humans is approaching, attack quickly!!"

As soon as they heard that order, all the demons increased their attack.

Father coughed up blood, but still did his best to operate a formation plate.

Mother swung her Blade, numerous shining lights were seen on the Blade.

"A last strike, let's see how many I can take with me" said Mother.

"Ahaha, good! Then let us compare once, just who killed more demons" Father also laughed loudly and said.

Inside Bai Hua Palace.

"Oh no! We're a little late!" Wang Li couldn't help but exclaimed.

Bai Hua Fairy's incarnation is still a few miles away from Father and Mother, yet the demon beast army was also using their strongest attacks.

Some of the demon beasts were even choosing to use sacrificial methods to activate the strongest spells available to themselves.

Against attacks so throng, the two of them definitely have no chance of escape.

"Don't fret"

On her throne, Bai Hua Fairy was using one hand to hold up her face and said lazily.

As her inner sight swept through a few ten thousand miles, all the demon beasts' spells were scanned and thoroughly remembered, fully explored of their secrets.

At the same time.

Bai Hua Fairy's incarnation stopped in place, shouted with a low voice: "Divine Skill, Sleeves of Holding"

The incarnation swept her long sleeves along the wind, then retrieved it in one motion.

A few miles from there, suddenly all the lights from Father's defensive formation shut down at once.

Father's face changed: "The formation lost its effect, what happened!?"

Then immediately after, he and Mother were tightly bound by something, unable to use even the littlest bit of spirit energy or move a finger.

An irresistible force pulled the two defenseless people through the distance of miles all at once, into Bai Hua Fairy's incarnation's right sleeve.

A second later, the numerous attacks hit where Father and Mother were standing before, blowing everything up into a giant crater.
