Chapter 207 Law Enforcement Elder Guards the World (21)

Bai Tang waved her hand with a smile, and Prince Shen disappeared into the distance like a shooting star.

“So formidable!” Bai Tang is amazing, thought Zhong Jin, feeling proud. Glancing at Shen Zhuo beside him, he comforted, “Junior Brother, don’t be upset. Our Master is a very good person and also very formidable. This old guy is not a good person. Master said that Junior Bother is a once-in-a-millennium genius. Junior Brother will definitely become very powerful in the future, and then he can slap this guy’s face, just like Master does.”

Shen Zhuo’s eyes flickered with complexity as he glanced at Zhong Jin. In his previous life, he had despised him, but in this life, by some twist of fate, he became his Senior Brother, and yet he still spoke up for him.

This was the second time Bai Tang had said something like this. Shen Zhuo couldn’t shake the feeling that he had heard these words before.

A disciple quickly asked, “Master, how did we perform just now?”

Bai Tang was unafraid to praise, saying, “Deserves a chicken leg. Go back and train well, gain experience.”

Excited, the disciples mounted their swords and flew back, saying, “Yes, Master.”

As Bai Tang departed, standing atop Canglan, she lifted the restriction.

Shen Zhuo lowered his gaze and said, “Master seems to be deliberately concealing the fact that I am in the Divine Movement Sect.”

Bai Tang’s robes fluttered gently as she said, “Naturally, it’s better to keep hidden for now, lest it disrupt the harmony. The person I sent to inquire about your past has returned. Let’s wait until then. If he knows you’re my disciple, he probably wouldn’t want to sever ties with you no matter what. There’s nothing worth clinging to in that family. Once you’ve joined my Divine Movement Sect, you’re reborn.”

Shen Zhuo felt a bit bewildered. If the Divine Movement Sect were still the same as before, he wouldn’t have any doubts and would eagerly want to eliminate everything.

Zhong Jin said, “Master, Zhong Jin has no attachments. After my parents’ accident and their passing, I have no family left. Isn’t that considered severing worldly ties?”

Bai Tang nodded gently. After wandering around the Divine Movement Sect with them for a while, she led them back to Fanjing Peak.

Throughout the year, Bai Tang tended to the flowers on Fanjing Peak, ensuring a constant display of blooms in every season. At this moment, it was the peak season for the weeping crabapples, painting the landscape in shades of pink and white, a gentle beauty stretching as far as the eye could see.

Standing beneath the flowering trees, Bai Tang said, “A’Jin, A’Zhuo, it’s time to perform the ceremony to pay respects to your Master.”

Following the customs of the mortal realm, Zhong Jin performed the ceremony of paying respects to his Master, while Shen Zhuo, having never been taught, observed Zhong Jin’s movements with a sidelong glance and followed suit.

“Most of the things I, as your Master, have are too powerful for you to handle. After much thought, I’ve decided to give you a set of clothes that can change according to your age and size, and even adapt according to your desires. Ordinary magical instruments or spiritual treasures won’t harm you, but they can partially block spiritual damage,” Bai Tang explained.

The ceremony of paying respects to the Master was neither outstanding nor weak.

Bai Tang gave Zhong Jin a light blue set of clothes and Shen Zhuo a white one. She said intentionally, “A’Zhuo, since you are reborn, everything from the past cannot be pursued. I hope your future will be bright and clear. Go choose your own room. Starting tomorrow, both of you will attend theoretical and law enforcement introductory classes at Enlightened Mirror. A’Jin, after you return, spend an hour and a half reading in the study, while A’Zhuo will join other disciples at Easing Breeze Hall to listen to my lectures. After class, you will also spend an hour and a half in my study to read. For meals, go to the kitchen to learn cooking. Don’t waste anything. Do you understand?”

Raising his small hand, Zhong Jin said, “Master, shouldn’t we practice diligently? Spending an hour and a half reading every day seems like a waste of time.”

In fact, Shen Zhuo also felt that it was a waste of time. He longed for powerful strength to exact revenge. Reading books? No need.

Bai Tang replied sternly, “The path of cultivation is not to be rushed. While cultivation is important, what’s even more crucial is cultivating the heart. I want you both to read to enrich your inner selves and broaden your horizons. Don’t slack off, or I will punish you severely.”

The two obediently agreed and withdrew.
