As the relationship between Li Qingshan and the little fox grew closer, the latter grew more attached to the former by following him everywhere. When Li Qingshan was practicing katas, the little fox would do so too. When he went to clean the steles, she would follow him.
When he was fishing by the lake, she would throw pebbles into the water to disturb his progress. Stallh the løvil_Firl.let website on Google to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality. The little fox revealed her true nature, which she had been suppressing.
She was, in essence, a cute little girl.
During her 40 years in the Monster Refining Tower, she had witnessed too many horrors. As a result, she was introverted and loathed humans.
Now that Li Qingshan had comforted her with his gentleness, the little fox became more and more cheerful, and she slowly revealed her true nature.
Li Qingshan used to be alone. But now, he was surrounded by the little fox's laughter.
He also smiled more, thanks to her influence.
Time passed quickly. Li Qingshan's daily routine included practicing katas, cultivating, cleaning the steles, and comprehending new techniques.
He repeated this routine daily. As a result, his cultivation improved by leaps and bounds, and he reached the eighth sea in the Distant Shore Plane.
With his body as his vessel and his soul as the captain, he traversed the seas of the Distant Shore Plane. Overcoming obstacles, he pushed all the way to the eighth sea.
He was only one sea away from the Distant Shore.
Li Qingshan was not in a rush. Nevertheless, he would cross that sea sooner or later.
On Repentance Cliff, he spent his days comfortably.
The little fox also felt the same way. She gradually became more cheerful after spending time together with him. She wasn't as gloomy as before.
She would jump on him playfully every day.
She no longer showed her initial fury and indifference.
Li Qingshan was also happy to have made a little friend.
That day, Li Qingshan and the little fox were cultivating, and after cleaning some steles and comprehending techniques, they returned to the bamboo hut.
"You have been cultivating together with me for a while now. Your cultivation has improved very rapidly," said Li Qingshan, surprised as he looked at the agile figure of the little fox.
He had not observed the little fox for a while, and she had actually broken through the Body Refinement Plane and entered the Innate Plane. Although her pace was not as rapid as his, her progress was still speedy. Also, her pace was still increasing.
[I am a prodigy!]
The little fox wrote on the ground with her claws. She gave him a smug look.
Li Qingshan smiled and said, "Alright, I will wait for the day when you break through the shackles of the world."
The little fox looked at him incredulously. She wanted to ask him what the shackles of the world were.
However, he turned his gaze toward the entrance of Repentance Cliff.
A maiden he had been waiting for for a long time had arrived.
It was Little Nine.
After several months, she finally came.
Li Qingshan sensed the aura from her figure. She had already broken through the Grandmaster Plane and entered the Ascension Plane.
This rate was as he had calculated.
"Little Fox, my younger sister is here. Will you be meeting her?" Li Qingshan did not immediately rush to welcome Little Nine but instead asked Little Fox for her opinion.
She hated humans, so he had first to respect her wishes and did not immediately bring Little Nine over.
Little Fox was taken aback. She swiftly retreated and waved her hand at him, gesturing for him to see his sister.
She did not want to meet other people and hid in her little wooden house.
Li Qingshan smiled helplessly. Little Fox was very cheerful in his presence and laughed regularly. However, that was just toward him.
Little Fox still returned to her old self before strangers.
Li Qingshan had not met Little Nine for a few months.
He had a smile on his face as he put his hands behind his back. His slender figure stood on the bridge in front of the bamboo hut as he awaited Little Nine's arrival. "Brother!" called out Little Nine demurely as she dashed toward him and excitedly hugged his arm.
"Congratulations for breaking through the Grandmaster Plane and entering the Ascension Plane," said Li Qingshan gently as he caressed her head.
"My achievements are possible due to Brother's secret technique. After thoroughly refining my root bones with your technique, I managed to break through the Grandmaster Plane and enter the Ascension Plane," said Little Nine as she jumped up and down in joy.
In the eyes of others, she was an aloof genius. However, she was sweet and cute in front of Li Qingshan.
He said, "You can continue cultivating the Immortality Method. It will improve your root bones. So don't give up on it."
Little Nine nodded in agreement and replied, "I know. I have been practicing it diligently."
Then, she scanned the surroundings and asked curiously, "It has been a while since I last visited you. Is everything okay?"
"Everything is okay as long as you don't come to disturb me," Li Qingshan responded, his eyebrows raised. Both of them sat down in front of the bamboo hut.
"What? So much for me stealing the wine from Grandfather-master for you to taste. You actually said such hurtful things to me," Little Nine grumbled.

"Did you really steal it?" Li Qingshan looked at Little Nine, shocked.
He was just joking last time. He did not expect Little Nine to remember his words. Yet, she had brought him some wine this time.
Little Nine proudly took out dozens of jars of fine wine. "Take a look," she said. "These are all wines that are more than a century old. They were brewed from various precious ingredients and are absolute treasures. If I had not reached the Ascension Plane this time, Grandfather-master would not have allowed me to steal these."
Li Qingshan laughed out loud.
It seemed like instead of stealing, she merely took something that Grandfather-master acquiesced to without asking him directly.
However, this also showed that the Yuhua Sect viewed Little Nine highly and spared no effort to develop her.
Li Qingshan put the dozens of jars of fine wine away. He looked at Little Nine's happy expression and asked, "How has the Yuhua Sect been lately?"
Now, Little Nine was his only source of news from the outside world.
She had not come for months, so he was in the dark about what was happening out there.
Now that she had come, he had to ask.
Little Nine shook her head and sighed, "It has not been well. The Heavenly Path Sect joined forces with other sects and imposed strict sanctions on us, and they blocked off our supplies with various methods. So now, the Yuhua Sect is short on resources. The members are complaining, and everyone doubts Master's leadership."
Li Qingshan frowned and asked, "Are the sanctions from the Heavenly Path Sect that powerful?"
She replied, "Of course. The Heavenly Path Sect is the largest. As soon as they issued the sanctions, the smaller sects and the sects that followed their lead acted like thugs. They besieged the Yuhua Sect from all sides, not allowing any supplies to enter our territory."
"Even many of our Senior Brothers and Sisters who are experiencing the world have been injured. All the major sects have us in their sights."
"Master is trying his best to keep everything under control. However, I feel that things have been slowly going out of control recently. Some elders from the Yuhua Sect are impeaching him. They accused him of causing our sect to be sanctioned by the Heavenly Path Sect due to his iron will."
Little Nine grumbled angrily, "This group of b*stards are all spineless cowards. They give up quickly when faced with sanctions."
Li Qingshan fell deep into thought. He shook his head and said, "They are not surrendering because of the sanctions. They are doing so because the situation goes against their best interests."
He continued, "They place their interests above that of the Yuhua Sect. When the sect is harmed, they do not speak up. However, they will leap into action before anyone else when they are harmed. If it truly comes to fighting, they will be the first to open the gates and welcome the members of the Heavenly Path Sect. They will change course rather quickly."
"Brother, what should we do? Master Sect Leader is exhausted by this and feels helpless in this situation," asked Little Nine, concerned..
