Xiao Hei was very curious. According to reason, the news of Situ Yan's return should have been a big deal that would have caused a stir throughout Tian Gang Sect.
However, these past two days, Tian Gang Sect had remained calm and peaceful, as if nothing had happened at all. It was truly strange.
"Could it be that the Sect Master has left again?" Xiao Bai was taken aback. If the Sect Master had left just like that, it would be difficult for people to accept.
Bai Li Hongzhuang, with her deep and wise eyes, shook her head, her voice filled with certainty. "The Sect Master wouldn't immediately leave upon his return. It's just that he hasn't appeared in front of everyone."
"Perhaps the Sect Master is waiting for Emperor Beichen to return."
With the favor the Sect Master showed Emperor Beichen, it was unlikely that he would leave without meeting Emperor Beichen after learning about everything that had happened in Tian Gang Sect.
On the contrary, the Sect Master would probably not leave for a while.
"Master is right. I think the Sect Master must have successfully made a breakthrough this time. He appears to be around fifty years old, but his true age is definitely older," Xiao Bai continued.
Hearing this, a glimmer of light flashed in Bai Li Hongzhuang's eyes. When cultivators reach a certain age and make a breakthrough in their cultivation, their appearance would regain some of their youthfulness.
Especially for powerful figures like family heads and sect masters, their strength was incomparable to ordinary cultivators.
Similarly, their lifespan would be much longer than that of ordinary cultivators. They might look like they're fifty years old, but in reality, they could be sixty or seventy, or even older.
That was the allure of cultivation!
Many cultivators desperately pursued immortality through cultivation, and only when they reached such a realm could they truly comprehend the essence of life.
"If that's the case, it's really good news."
A captivating smile bloomed on Bai Li Hongzhuang's exquisite and enchanting face, making her already outstanding countenance even more irresistible.
When Emperor Beichen returned to the palace, he saw Bai Li Hongzhuang in such a state. His unparalleled handsome face revealed a trace of intoxicated admiration.
"My wife, you seem to be in a good mood."
Emperor Beichen appeared silently behind Bai Li Hongzhuang, his hands directly embracing her slender waist. The fragrance emanating from Bai Li Hongzhuang intoxicated him.
When Bai Li Hongzhuang noticed someone behind her, her spirit was initially tense. However, as soon as she smelled that familiar scent, her tense body relaxed, allowing Emperor Beichen to embrace her.
The smile at the corner of Bai Li Hongzhuang's lips widened. "Naturally, everyone has already arrived."
Emperor Beichen naturally understood what Bai Li Hongzhuang meant. He had already known that all the students from the special class had arrived when he saw Hei Mu.
"I came back a bit late. Did Han Xilin come to cause trouble again?"
Emperor Beichen's eyebrows furrowed slightly. When he heard Hei Ming's report, he learned about what had happened during his absence these past few days.
It seemed that it was indeed the right choice to let Hongzhuang cultivate in the stone chamber. Otherwise, it would have likely resulted in a direct confrontation.
He hadn't expected Han Xilin to be so unyielding. He had made his intentions clear, but she still went against his wishes.
Upon hearing Emperor Beichen's question, Bai Li Hongzhuang already understood that Emperor Beichen must have already known everything. She smiled and said, "Do you want to know my opinion?"
