Chapter 1075: Chapter 317: I’ll Help You Keep the Secret! It’s Li Xiao’an’s! (Part 2)

Cultivators at the Nascent Soul Stage possess a second divine soul, allowing them to sense the strength of another’s divine soul and thereby roughly determine their cultivation level.

The bald-headed man’s heart skipped a beat when Yuchi did something unexpected. Damn, could he really be a cultivator at the Nascent Soul Stage? Why would an old dog at the Nascent Soul Stage bother with a little girl like this? This is just absurd.

In truth, Yuchi was extremely anxious, but regardless of the circumstances, he had to take away this disciple today. Even if he never came back to the State Capital again, he must take this disciple. A disciple with Ninth-Grade Talent is a rare opportunity! Li Xiao’an must become the seventeenth junior sister of the sect!

Li Xiao’an’s mind was swirling with the words "Nascent Soul." She gazed in disbelief at the man beside her. Was this man really a cultivator at the Nascent Soul Stage? Could his cultivation have actually reached such an unimaginable level? Such a cultivation level was beyond her wildest dreams!

Previously, she thought that being able to reach the Foundation Establishment Stage would already be a perfect life!

Yuchi: I’m just a tiny bit away from Nascent Soul.

Looking again at the bald-headed person who was currently intimidated by him, Yuchi sighed:

"I see your cultivation is only at the Spirit Storage Stage. Little baldy, it’s already a difficult achievement for someone with a Seventh-Grade talent to reach the Spirit Storage Stage."

"So I advise you not to ask questions that don’t need asking."

"The waters in the State Capital run deep, and you can’t possibly handle it."

Bald Head: "..."

Could this man really see through my cultivation with a glance, and even see through my talent?!

Only my master knows about my talent! Could it be that this guy actually has some connection with my sect?! Maybe he’s one of my senior members? Otherwise, he must truly be some old monster at the Nascent Soul Stage! This... this only explains it!

But why would he seek out such a little girl at this moment? Is it just that his tastes are peculiar, liking this sort of skinny bamboo stick?

The bald-headed man quickly darted his eyes about and then said:

"Senior, I was just joking with you earlier. I wouldn’t dare to recklessly ask for your name, hoping you won’t mind your junior’s transgression!"

Yuchi smirked coldly, pinching Li Xiao’an’s cheek with one hand as he said indifferently, "Don’t joke with strangers in the future. It was me this time, and I don’t want to stir up a storm in the State Capital. Otherwise, if it were others, I really don’t know how they would have reacted to your behavior. Also, as your senior, I advise you that the State Capital is currently not peaceful. Some cultivators from the Sixth State may have already arrived here."

Saying this, a Illusion Seed appeared in Yuchi’s hand. "I believe there’s no need for me to say more."

This guy’s acting is top-notch, I give it a full score...

Yuchi’s heart trembled violently this time; it was mere bluffing by borrowing the tiger’s might. There was no choice, it was nerve-wracking, but after all, he had only just begun taking in disciples—only two or three years at that. Another ten or twenty years, and he wouldn’t be so timid.

He almost encountered a "plot kill" this time, narrowly surviving a disaster, temporarily enduring a close call. Otherwise, things would get troublesome.

The State Capital is indeed too much for him to handle; his cultivation is still too low. His current level is fine in Jiangzhou City and Canglan City, but any higher, and it’s not enough. So he relies even more on his disciples’ help. Li Xiao’an, little sister, you can’t escape.

The bald-headed man was now utterly convinced—truly convinced—that the other party could have an Illusion Seed. Such a thing isn’t something just anyone can have. Seeing his cultivation at the Nascent Soul stage on top of this makes it evidence, since only a Nascent Soul stage cultivator would dare venture to other states.

So, did he go to the Fifth State and learn about matters in the Sixth State?

Amazing!

Truly hidden depths, recalling what was just said, he felt deeply concerned and hastily kowtowed to Yuchi: "Thank you, Senior, for your enlightening teaching!"

Yuchi’s expression became slightly more indifferent:

"No need for that, you’re all young, and I was the same in my youth. Seeing something disagreeable, I’d just come right over, but now I’m past that age; I’ve restrained the edge, and this way your soul can last longer."

"Reflect well on this, and don’t take the world too simply; maintaining a humble heart at all times is best."

The bald-headed man nodded heavily. The other party knows about divine souls; impressive. He only heard about it recently from the Qi family. Previously, he didn’t know such a thing existed. So indeed, seniors are seniors; they can endure without hitting him under such circumstances.

If I reach the Divinity Transformation Realm, I’d beat your bald head into a pulp...

The bald-headed man said, "Senior, would you have time to visit our sect? If you come, we’ll certainly treat you well! You like... aren’t you fond of this type? We have similar individuals in our sect. We... we can accommodate!"

Yuchi: "???"
