Longevity Begins From Raising Disciples-Chapter 448 - 232: The Misty Relic and the Fox’s Identity

Chapter 448: Chapter 232: The Misty Relic and the Fox’s Identity

"Ding~"

The fluffy little white fox squatted on the ground, tilting its head, its glossy eyes wide open, staring at her without moving.

Bai Susu: "???"

What is this fox doing?

It was just feeling down because of the sacred land’s collapse, its tail drooping, so why is it suddenly energetic again?

Bai Susu felt puzzled by its gaze, sensing something off but unable to pinpoint what exactly.

She frowned even more, glancing over at Chen Ye, who was conversing with Zhiwei not far away.

This little creature should be his spirit pet...

The little white fox not only kept staring but also moved its little paws forward, finding a more comfortable position to continue staring.

In the simple world of the little fox, logic was straightforward.

The bad human had two little girls with him, but they were his own people.

But this golden-haired woman was different; she seemed fierce, always shouting at Chen Ye, and called herself "master."

Yet, Chen Ye had just wiped her sweat with Zhiwei’s handkerchief...

This was too complicated for the fox to understand.

So, squatting here and watching closely, maybe it could figure things out?

"Chen Ye!" Bai Susu finally couldn’t stand it any longer, her fair cheeks tinted with a hint of red in annoyance, "Control your spirit pet! It’s... it’s staring at me!"

"Xiaobai, don’t be rude."

Chen Ye, having just finished his discussion with Zhiwei, already had a rough plan in mind.

He walked over and helplessly picked up the little white fox by his leg, placing it in Zhiwei’s arms.

The little white fox let out a reluctant "chee" sound in protest for interrupting its big surveillance operation.

It just wanted to help Chen Ye screen people, what was wrong with that?

This golden-haired one clearly looked like a bad woman!

Taking care of her, why not take care of the little fox instead, at least it wouldn’t treat him like a servant...

Chen Ye ignored the little white fox’s temper, looking at Bai Susu with a serious expression: "True Inheritor Bai, things are worse than we thought."

Seeing his solemn expression, Bai Susu temporarily suppressed her displeasure, frowning: "What do you mean?"

"In that Tao Stele, there’s likely a Nascent Soul True Monarch’s residual soul. He initially failed to possess someone else... In short, he’s unconsciously trying to possess you now."

Chen Ye said word by word.

Even if it was a residual soul acting on instinct, it ultimately came from a Nascent Soul True Monarch!

Bai Susu’s pupils contracted sharply, a sense of despair unavoidably rising in her heart.

No matter how proud she was, she considered herself no match against a Nascent Soul True Monarch.

"Nascent Soul residual soul... It’s over... you, you’d better leave. If he truly possesses me, the consequences..."

The golden-haired girl murmured in a lost voice.

"Don’t talk doom and gloom before you’re dead!" Chen Ye shouted sternly, interrupting her wallowing, "It’s just an unconscious residual soul acting on instinct, not undefeatable! If you give up first, that’s truly the end!"

Bai Susu was snapped back to her senses by his shout, instinctively looking at Chen Ye, her heart a whirlwind of emotions.

This man, whom she had always looked down upon, was far calmer than her at this moment...

She quickly calmed down, muttering to herself:

"It turns out, the founder of the Songyang Sect never truly died, lurking here..."

"The demise of the Songyang Sect back then was precisely because the founder’s time was up, his body decayed with only the Nascent Soul remaining. Enemies took the opportunity to scheme, leading to the founder’s soul scattering, and even the sect’s ancestral land Dragon Sleep Mountain was almost leveled..."

This was also why the Lingyin Sect did not establish their sect on Dragon Sleep Mountain.

The current Dragon Sleep Mountain is less than a tenth of its former scale.

Chen Ye suddenly realized, thinking Dragon Sleep Mountain was probably smashed by Dandan Qingjun.

But hearing this, he couldn’t help but wonder: "What kind of method could possibly target a Nascent Soul?"

Upon hearing this, a trace of dread appeared on Bai Susu’s face: "That object is called the Mystical Pearl, it’s forgotten upon seeing, transcending cause and effect, especially restraining Divine Soul and Nascent Soul. How those people obtained it remains a mystery. Unfortunately, the Mystical Pearl can only be used once. If we had this treasure, this residual soul wouldn’t be a concern."

Chen Ye furrowed his brow: "Since it’s forgotten upon seeing, transcending cause and effect, where would we find this pearl?"

Bai Susu smiled bitterly: "There are countless mystical treasures in the world, awaiting those with great fortune to obtain them. As it stands now, the enemy’s plot wasn’t entirely successful back then... the Songyang Sect’s founder likely feigned death and hid here! Luckily, possession failed... otherwise, the world would have another calamity!"

As Bai Susu was explaining, Zhiwei suddenly froze beside them, a look of bewilderment crossing her black eyes.

"Mystical Pearl... forgotten upon seeing..." she murmured unconsciously.

"Zhiwei, what’s wrong?" Chen Ye noticed her strangeness.

Zhiwei silently reached into her Storage Bag, searching.

A moment later, she quietly placed a dull grayish-white pearl in her palm.

She held the pearl in her palm, somewhat unsure as she asked, "Master, Sister Susu... is this what you’re talking about?"

"This is..." Chen Ye was just about to take a closer look, but he felt his attention diverted as if by an invisible hand, with no desire to explore the pearl further.

But Bai Susu, upon seeing that pearl, gasped in amazement: "Mystical Pearl! It’s really the Mystical Pearl! How is it possible... how did it end up in your hands?!"

Even though the pearl makes one forget after looking at it, at least one forgets after looking away.

And in past years, there were those who had obtained the pearl and recorded its characteristics, so Bai Susu recognizing it wasn’t surprising.

"Zhiwei, when did you get this pearl?" Chen Ye was utterly confused. His two disciples were hardly ever away from him, so when did they come across such a rare treasure?

"Master, do you remember the Mist Forest in the Moon Rhinoceros Lake District? Back then, I and my junior sister were being chased, and we accidentally entered a Grotto Heaven and obtained this pearl. I was planning to present it to you, but... but I forgot afterwards."
