Family Cultivation: I Become a Mirror

Chapter 463 376 Separation Fire Spear_3

Yang Xiao'er's talent was not very high, and her appearance was ordinary. She usually remained unnoticed, and during their few encounters, she always spoke with eager charm. Li Xizhi had been in seclusion, cultivating, and thus had really had little contact with her.

Li Xizhi's tone seemed unfamiliar, yet the girl did not show any disappointment. She remained enthusiastic and said with a smile,

"Senior Brother is often in seclusion; it is rare for Xiao'er to see you."

Li Xizhi nodded slightly, and Yang Xiao'er continued,

"Recently, there has been much unrest outside our sect. Have you heard of the 'Eastern Fire Cave Heaven'?"

"'Eastern Fire Cave Heaven'?"

Li Xizhi raised his eyebrows in surprise and asked,

"I have indeed heard some, about a Foundation Establishment Cultivator 'Separation Fire Spear' Chu Yi? Is there truth to his deeds?"

Yang Xiao'er nodded lightly and answered,

"Chu Yi, as a loose cultivator, has stirred up great trouble for Yu Fu, truly a remarkable talent! My father says this person is quite peculiar and should not be provoked; he must have a great destiny."

Li Xizhi nodded, stealthily contemplating writing a letter to remind his family, as Yang Xiao'er added,

"Back when the immortal sect from Wei Country fled south, one branch established the Dongli Sect, and the 'Eastern Fire Cave Heaven' is also well-known. Now it has finally revealed itself, disturbing the cultivators of Wu and Yue."

"The Three Sects and Seven Doors have already taken action to lock down the Cave Heaven, waiting to break the formation and enter… Only Chu Yi has managed to enter in advance relying on a secret technique…"

Li Xizhi sat quietly on a bluestone, listening to Yang Xiao'er's incessant narration of news she had heard. After a long while, Yang Xiao'er asked,

"I wonder how many spots Qing Sui Peak has been allotted?"

Li Xizhi pondered for a moment and answered,

"It must be just the two of us."

"Good…"

Yang Xiao'er nodded, a look of resolute determination appearing on her face as she stared straight at him.

Yang Xiao'er's features were not that attractive, but she had dressed up as best she could, managing to look somewhat delicate. She looked up at him uncertainly, her voice shy as she said,

"Senior Brother comes from a family of Sword Immortals, handsome and talented. Xiao'er feels unworthy to be your match, and although I have harbored thoughts… I do not wish to waste time in vain."

Li Xizhi was caught off guard by her words, and Yang Xiao'er continued quietly,

"Xiao'er has been on Qing Sui Peak for two years… Senior Brother, you have never really looked at me… With Xiao'er's mediocre talent and no charming beauty, if Senior Brother has intentions, we could support each other for the rest of our lives, but if not, Xiao'er will ask her father for a separation."

Li Xizhi had never expected the usually enthusiastic girl to say such things, and he stared at her dumbfounded for a moment before replying in a deep voice,

"Xizhi is not such a person. Since we have shared the wedding wine, we are husband and wife in this life, with no second thoughts. These past two years, it was just about stabilizing my cultivation level…"

He said, blushing with a bashful smile,

"Secondly, I also feared that you might think… I was too frivolous."

Yang Xiao'er had been bracing for him to decline gracefully but was taken aback by such a response. As she saw his earnest expression, she stepped forward and gave him a peck on the cheek.

Then, excitedly, she pulled out from her storage bag a white vestment robe adorned with mysterious patterns, and spoke,

"This is a feather robe I asked my clan for, it can save your life in critical moments, please Senior Brother..."

"How could I accept this…"

Li Xizhi's face went slightly red, still not recovered from his surprise. He was at a loss for words as he looked at the snow-white robe, whispering,

"Is this a medium-grade Qi Cultivation robe?!"

Such robes and armor were rare; the entire Li family had only one set of Jade Armor at the Fetal Breathing Level, which had been treasured and given to Li Qinghong…

Now, with such a precious vestment in hand, Li Xizhi felt as if he was holding two large piles of spirit stones:

'Two hundred spirit stones enough? Three hundred?'

Yang Xiao'er stuffed the feather robe into his hands, and said with a smile,

"This is part of my dowry given by my father…"

"You…"

Li Xizhi stared at the joy brimming in her eyes, feeling a tightness in his chest.

'She offers me her innocent enthusiasm and heartfelt devotion…'
