112: Chapter 112: Little White, you're disturbing my Dao Heart!

"Sister Die Zhang, I'm fine."

The girl named Li Yao said in a voice as thin as a thread, a forced smile barely squeezing onto her Face.

Die Zhang's brow furrowed. She quickly extended her single arm to support the young girl.

"Your Face looks like this, how could you possibly be fine!" Die Zhang said, her Face rare with anger.

Li Yao lowered her head.

Die Zhang looked toward the white-haired old man again.

Senior Li Hong sighed and finally told the story.

It turned out that in the last great battle with the Wilderness Demon Clan, Li Yao had been ambushed by a hidden Golden Core Stage demon Sword Cultivator.

A Natal Flying Sword with immense killing power had pierced through several Qi mansions in the girl's body on the spot!

If it hadn't been for a nearby Golden Core Stage Sword Cultivator who stepped in to save her in time, Li Yao might have died right then!

Even so, the Sword Qi of that Golden Core Stage demon Sword Cultivator remained in Li Yao's body's acupoints, damaging her Physical Body and Divine Soul!

This was one of the reasons why Sword Cultivators were known as one of the four most troublesome ghosts on the mountain!

As a Golden Core Stage Sword Cultivator, Senior Li Hong naturally didn't dare to treat Li Yao rashly, fearing it might have the opposite effect.

That was why he was in such a hurry to sell this courtyard; he wanted to buy some Heaven And Earth Treasures to nourish his daughter's body.

Meanwhile, Die Zhang sent a voice transmission to Yang Simu, explaining that Li Yao wasn't Senior Li Hong's biological daughter, but the daughter of a close friend of his.

However, not long ago, that friend had died on the battlefield south of the Great Wall of Sword Qi.

Senior Li Hong had always treated Li Yao as his own.

Die Zhang said with some indignation, "Senior Li Hong, why didn't you tell me about A-Yao's situation?"

"Miss Die Zhang, you've helped A-Yao too much over the years, and I know it's not easy for you to run the grocery store alone..." Senior Li Hong said helplessly.

At that moment, Xiao Bai suddenly sent a voice transmission to Yang Simu:

"Young Master, this matter isn't actually that troublesome."

"When I served as a Water God of the Dali Dynasty, I had an item that could help this girl nourish her soul and strengthen her Physical Body."

"Furthermore, from the moment I saw this girl, I've felt that there is some karmic connection between her and me."

"If the Young Master doesn't mind, I hope to take her as my Disciple."

Hearing these words from Xiao Bai, Yang Simu couldn't help but be slightly surprised.

After all, she was already a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator and was likely to soon reach the Upper Five Realms; taking a Disciple was not something to be done lightly.

Yang Simu turned to look at Xiao Bai and asked seriously, "Are you sure?"

Xiao Bai nodded.

Seeing this, Yang Simu understood.

Thus, he looked at Senior Li Hong and Li Yao, and said in a solemn voice:

"Senior, although there was a slight misunderstanding between us back on the wall of the Great Wall of Sword Qi, I don't blame you."

"Li Yao's current situation isn't something that a few Grain Rain Coins can solve."

Senior Li Hong looked at Yang Simu upon hearing this, his expression one of grief and indignation:

"I told you, I will not sell this courtyard to you!"

"For the sake of Miss Die Zhang, I won't hold it against you this time!"

"Get out!"

Die Zhang looked anxious and was about to speak when Yang Simu beat her to it:

"Senior, this maidservant beside me can treat Li Yao."

Upon hearing this, the several people in front of him were stunned simultaneously.

"Yang Simu, is what you're saying true?" Die Zhang asked in pleasant surprise.

Yang Simu nodded. "Xiao Bai was once a Water God who possessed a golden statue, and now she is about to step into the Upper Five Realms. Treating an injury left by a Golden Core Stage demon Sword Cultivator is naturally not difficult."

Senior Li Hong's expression was first one of excitement, but then his Face changed drastically.

He raised his hand and pointed at Xiao Bai, shouting angrily:

"Kid, I don't believe your nonsense!"

"That day on the wall of the Great Wall of Sword Qi, I felt the Aura of the Yao Race coming from her!"

Hearing the words 'Yao Race,' Li Yao's pretty Face turned even paler.

Because her father had been killed by the Yao Race, and her current injury was also caused by the Yao Race!

Yang Simu sighed and explained patiently:

"Senior, I said it last time; we come from Eastern Baoping Continent and have no connection to the Wilderness Demon Clan."

"Furthermore, even if we take a step back and say Xiao Bai is of the Yao Race."

"Compared to treating A-Yao, which is more important?"

Hearing this, Senior Li Hong's expression shifted uncertainly, his heart filled with extreme conflict.

Seeing this, Die Zhang took the opportunity to persuade him: "Senior Li Hong, treating A-Yao is what matters!"

"As for the identities of Yang Simu and the others, you don't need to doubt them."

"A few days ago, they joined forces on the southern battlefield to kill a Nascent Soul Stage Wilderness Demon Clan Sword Cultivator!"

"What?!" Senior Li Hong suddenly cried out, his Face full of shock.

Die Zhang continued, "You weren't on that battlefield at the time, so you might not know that the person who used a dragon-slaying stone to exchange for the demon Sword Cultivator's Natal Flying Sword was also Yang Simu!"

Senior Li Hong was stunned again, his Face full of disbelief.

He had indeed heard Sword Cultivators mention this, but since he had only just managed to collect two Natal Flying Swords from Golden Core Stage demon Sword Cultivators, he hadn't gone over and naturally hadn't seen Yang Simu and the others.

At this moment, Xiao Bai took a step forward and said with certainty:

"Senior, please rest assured, I will definitely be able to cure Miss A-Yao."

"However, I hope she can become my Disciple; I will certainly do my best to teach her!"

At this moment, Xiao Bai was no longer the maidservant serving tea and water by Yang Simu's side, but a genuine Nascent Soul Stage Earth Immortal!

That Aura could not be faked!

Xiao Bai originally didn't need to use the title "Senior," she was simply following her Young Master's way of addressing him.

In the end, Senior Li Hong agreed to Xiao Bai's request.

In his view, nothing was more important than his daughter's life and her Great Dao!

A moment later, Xiao Bai took out a small, solid ball of azure-blue water from her body.

It was actually the water fortune essence condensed by a River God!

This thing could no longer be described as merely precious.

If placed in any mountain Sect, they would fight to the death for it!

Seeing this scene, Senior Li Hong finally felt completely at ease.

This ball of water fortune essence merged into Li Yao's delicate body, and the girl immediately fell into a deep sleep.

Xiao Bai explained that Li Yao would wake up tomorrow, and at that time, she could begin her cultivation with her.

Afterward, everyone left the courtyard and spent eight Grain Rain Coins to buy another, slightly larger courtyard.

Then Yang Simu instructed Tan Xue and Xiao Qing to buy new bedding, furniture, and the like.

At night, three bright moons hung high in the sky.

Yang Simu discovered that practicing Night Practice in the Wilderness World was indeed more effective than in the Haoran World!

Perhaps this was because of the two extra moons?

"If I were to Cultivate directly in the Moon Palace, wouldn't it be twice the result with half the effort?" he thought with some anticipation.

Just then, Yang Simu heard a knock at the door.

"Young Master, your servant has some points of confusion regarding the Eighteen Stops of Sword Qi and would like to ask for the Young Master's guidance," Xiao Bai said in a soft, gentle voice.

After Yang Simu answered, Xiao Bai's delicate and graceful figure walked into the room.

Tonight, Xiao Bai had actually specially changed into a "battle robe."

Its style was somewhat like a cheongsam, but more ethereal, perfectly highlighting the woman's curvaceous figure.

Yang Simu swallowed hard and thought to himself, "Xiao Bai, you are disturbing my Dao Heart!"

"Um... this chapter makes up for yesterday's; I'll try to update as much as possible."
