At Wuzhuang Temple, in the open grounds of the Taoist monastery, the performances of Wu Tian and the little one were nothing short of stunning.
However, when Yin Fengxue, Liu Tianji, and Qin Yuhan stepped up, the cauldron didn’t even tremble. There was no reaction whatsoever.
They were all dejected. Qin Yuhan was no exception. Her husband and daughter are both so formidable? Am I the only one left out? How embarrassing is that?
"It’s okay." Wu Tian stepped forward, wrapped his arms around Qin Yuhan’s delicate body from behind, and spoke gently. "You don’t need to follow the path of Immortal Law. I have another way for you! Even if there is no path, I will carve one out for you!"
"Mhm." Hearing this, a sweet feeling blossomed in Qin Yuhan’s heart.
Liu Tianji and the others were caught completely off guard by this public display of affection.
As for the little one, she had experienced this sort of thing many times and was already immune. She stood indifferently to the side, grumbling inwardly. Go ahead, show off. One day you’ll realize that your favorite is still me, your daughter. Hmph!
At this moment, a sixteen-year-old Taoist walked over. Upon seeing him, Lan Qingfeng, Lv Mingyue, and the others immediately stood straight and called out respectfully, "Senior Brother!"
This was Lan Baiyun, the head senior disciple of Wuzhuang Temple. The three masters usually didn’t concern themselves with the temple’s daily operations, so Lan Baiyun managed all major and minor affairs. He was also responsible for teaching cultivation to Lv Mingyue, Lan Qingfeng, and the others.
Lv Mingyue and the others knew why Lan Baiyun had come, and they immediately turned to look at Wu Tian and the little one with complicated expressions.
Sure enough, Lan Baiyun approached them, his eyes filled with envy. Back in his day, his own aptitude was quite good, but only one master had truly valued him. Wu Tian and the little one were different; all three masters were vying for them, each wanting to personally teach them how to cultivate. How many people dreamed of such an opportunity?
"The two of you, please come with this humble Taoist. The three masters wish to see you," Lan Baiyun said politely.
Although he was the head senior disciple, he believed Wu Tian and the little one would surely become disciples of the three masters. And even though that would make them his juniors, like Lv Mingyue and the others, the masters would undoubtedly value them far beyond the ordinary. Even he, Lan Baiyun, had to be a little cautious.
Right now, Lan Qingfeng’s face was full of envy. Beside her, Lv Mingyue was consumed by envy, jealousy, and resentment. She couldn’t believe her moment of pride had been shattered so quickly and ruthlessly. Thinking of her earlier arrogance, Lv Mingyue was so embarrassed she wished she could find a hole to crawl into, feeling she could never show her face again.
"Wait here for me. I’ll be right back," Wu Tian said to Qin Yuhan and the others after picking up his daughter. He then followed Lan Baiyun.
Behind them, the eyes of the temple disciples followed, filled with envy.
Wu Tian and his daughter entered the most sacred room in the Taoist monastery, where the statues of The Three Pure Ones were enshrined.
On their prayer mats sat Monarch with the World, Monarch in Harmony with Heaven, and Lord with the Earth. As soon as Wu Tian and the little one entered, the three masters began to size them up. Wu Tian was handsome and refined, while the little one was adorable; their appearances alone surpassed countless others. They then observed that Wu Tian remained calm before them, while the little one, unlike other children who would be timid and restrained, was looking them over with curiosity. This made the three masters like the pair even more.
As they scrutinized Wu Tian, he was also assessing the three old Taoists.

A wave of disappointment washed over Wu Tian. I actually thought I might encounter a being like Zhen Yuanzi here. Alas, I got my hopes up.
