32: Chapter 32 Understanding Cause and Effect
As the sky outside the window gradually turned the color of a fish's belly and dawn approached, Su Xuan softly bid farewell to Cao Yang and carefully slipped out of the room.
In truth, she wasn't afraid of her Revered Master or Senior Sisters discovering her special relationship with Cao Yang. In fact, she didn't intend to hide this relationship.
However, this was the Xingyun Sect after all, not her own Sect. If they were to see her coming out of her Junior Brother's room, it would be absolutely mortifying! How could she face them in the future?
Cao Yang poured some spirit tea to moisten his throat and thought, "System, check my panel."

Not bad, their favorability has significantly improved.
What surprised Cao Yang was that his Third Senior Sister, Hua Xinyu, who was usually so hands-on and boisterous around him, actually had the lowest favorability. Conversely, his Fourth Senior Sister, Fu Xiaoya, who rarely spoke to him, had reached the level of "Liking" him.
Tsk tsk, a woman's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea; it's the same everywhere!
Luckily I have the System, otherwise this would be difficult.
"Hong Yi, Hong Er," Cao Yang called out to the air.
In the next instant, Hong Yi and the others appeared before Cao Yang.
"Alright, Hong Si, go to Lushui Village where I used to live. Set up a Formation there to protect the village, and then give this ring to the Village Head. Come back once you're done. Go," Cao Yang handed a ring to Hong Si and transmitted the village's location to her.
"Yes, Revered Master. This servant guarantees the task will be completed," Hong Si replied before vanishing on the spot.
Inside the ring were a large number of Cultivation Techniques and cultivation resources, including an Immortal Rank Cultivation Technique and some precious longevity Medicinal Pills.
These were treasures Cao Yang had obtained from other places or exchanged from the System space. He now planned to give them to the villagers of Lushui Village.
Cao Yang thought to himself, "I hope these things can help them increase their strength and allow them to lead better lives."
He felt he had done a good deed, which could be considered settling a piece of Karma for his original body.
In this world, everyone has their own destiny and karmic relationships. Cao Yang believed that as long as he continued to work hard, he could change his destiny and create a better future.
Cao Yang continued, "Also, when no one else is around, you don't need to hide in the Void Realm. Just stay by my side." He felt that letting these three beautiful maidens stay hidden in the Void Realm was a waste, and he also hoped to spend more time with them.
Hearing Cao Yang's words, the three maidens replied in unison, "Yes, Revered Master." Their voices were clear and pleasant, like heavenly music. Then, they emerged from the Void Realm and stood beside Cao Yang.
At this moment, Hong Yi seemed to realize something. She gracefully walked behind Cao Yang, reached out her fair, jade-like hands, and began to gently massage his shoulders. Her technique was skillful and gentle, making him feel incredibly comfortable.
Seeing Hong Yi's actions, Hong Er was not to be outdone. She immediately ran to Cao Yang's other side and mimicked Hong Yi, massaging his shoulders. The two of them coordinated their movements perfectly, as if they were one.
Meanwhile, Hong San sensibly picked up the teapot and filled Cao Yang's cup with steaming spirit tea. Her gaze was focused and serious, as if she were completing an important mission.
Cao Yang felt the massage from the two maidens and the service from Hong San, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart.
He realized that these maidens were not only beautiful and moving but also possessed intelligence and kind hearts. In this strange world, having such a group of people by his side was undoubtedly a form of happiness.
Cao Yang took a comfortable sip of tea and said to the three maidens with a smile, "Sisters, there's no need for such formalities in the future. Just be casual. I'm easy to get along with and don't have many rules. Come, you all sit down too and have a drink together."
Hearing Cao Yang's words, the three maidens' expressions visibly relaxed. After glancing at each other, they cautiously sat down on the chairs to the side.
Recalling Cao Yang's terrifying voice in that mysterious space earlier, they still felt a lingering fear.
However, as the conversation deepened, the atmosphere gradually became relaxed and pleasant. Cao Yang and the three maidens began to chat about various topics.
Through his interaction with them, Cao Yang learned that they only remembered he was their Revered Master, but had no memory of anything else.
This case of amnesia struck Cao Yang as a bit strange, but he didn't press them further, choosing instead to respect their current state.
During the conversation, Cao Yang's relaxed and humorous way of speaking allowed the three maidens to completely unwind, both physically and mentally.
Their originally tense nerves gradually relaxed, and natural, happy smiles appeared on their faces.
Suddenly, Cao Yang smiled and said to the three maidens, "Sisters, from now on, just call me Young Master. You don't need to call me Revered Master; I'm not used to hearing it."
Hong Er giggled and was the first to reply, "Yes, Young Master, I'll do whatever you say."
Then, Hong Yi and Hong San also hurriedly chimed in, "Yes, Young Master, we're the same. We'll all listen to the Young Master."
Soon, Hong Si also returned. As a Peak Golden Immortal, the task Cao Yang gave her could actually be completed in three minutes.
But she spent a bit more time in order to do it perfectly.
"Hong Si, is it finished? Sit down and have some tea first, then tell me about the specific situation in Lushui Village," Cao Yang said, looking at the suddenly appearing Hong Si.
"Yes, Revered Master," Hong Si replied.
"Fourth Sister, call him Young Master from now on," Hong Yi corrected from the side.
"Young Master, it's like this: nothing happened in the village you were in. It's the same as before you left. The Village Head asked me to tell you not to worry; everything in the village is fine. Just focus on your cultivation and take good care of yourself out there." Hong Si sat down, took a sip of tea, and began to explain in detail.
Hong Si continued, "Young Master, also, I only gave the Village Head Cultivation Techniques at the Soul Transformation Realm and below, along with cultivation resources and longevity Medicinal Pills. For the rest, I took the liberty of establishing a Legacy Hall in the village and placed everything else inside it. I told the Village Head that any children with a Spiritual Root in the future can enter to receive the Legacy, and I gave the only key to the hall to the Village Head."
"I acted on my own authority, please punish me, Young Master," Hong Si said, looking at Cao Yang.
"Hong Si, you did very well. It was my lack of consideration. Although I had you set up a Formation, wealth can stir people's hearts, so there was still a risk," Cao Yang said, giving Hong Si a reassuring look.
At that moment, the Eldest Senior Sister's voice came from outside the room, calling Cao Yang to attend the Exchange Meeting.
