Chapter 77: Eye ribbon-4
Swoosh~
As she set the teacup down, a gentle breeze rustled her hair, as if whispering to her.
Xiao Ling'r leaned against the rail, her eyes tracing the stars above.
The vastness of the sky served as a reminder of the endless possibilities that lay before her, and the limits that have been placed upon her.
Truly, one can't touch the sky sitting on Earth.
Her thoughts flitted back to her father, the Sect Master of the Heaven Fall Sect.
Her father's protective nature seemed more like a cage than a shield. Over the years, she had felt the weight of his expectations, the pressure to conform to his vision for her future.
Xiao Ling'r had often felt like a butterfly in a cocoon, awaiting the chance to break free and spread her wings.
The memory of their last conversation lingered in her mind, telling her to stay within the boundaries he had drawn, to remain loyal to the ways of the Heaven Fall Sect.
But his words had fallen on deaf ears.
Bai Lung's words had stirred something deep within her, fueling a desire for rebellion against her father's control.
Her fingers tightened around the rail, the cool stone biting into her skin
Her father had squandered her abilities, keeping her hidden away from others, as if her talents were a secret to be guarded.
It was only with Bai Lung's offer that she had finally glimpsed her own potential: to rise above the constraints of her father, to forge her own path, and leave an indelible mark upon the cultivation world.l
Not to mention, her father has already handed her to Bai Lung, so, it's only right if she listens to her man.

Meanwhile,
Bai Lung was looking at a strange ominous egg covered with a thick dark aura.
It was a reward given by the system during these days, and surprisingly this egg is the egg that can hatch into Primordial Void Dragon, with the power of primordial void.
A primordial descendent.
However, this egg needs some true Qi to hatch and a huge amount of it.
Swish!
Bai Lung's palm began to glow with red energy as he began to feed his Qi covered in dragon aura to the egg.
It might take another week before the egg finally hatches but Bai Lung wasn't in a rush.
The dark aura swirling around the egg seemed to grow denser as Bai Lung poured more and more of his qi into it.
He carefully controlled the flow of energy, infusing it with dragon essence as he fed it to the egg.
As the egg absorbed the energy, it began to tremble slightly, responding to the influx of power.
Bai Lung watched the egg closely, his eyes glinting with excitement.

The next morning,
"Beta Fang," the Sect Master's low voice echoed through the meeting hall, where Beta Fang had requested a meeting with Sect Master.
The sect master was still a little angry and annoyed at the moment as the rebellious elders were still unknown, sitting in the house ready to burn it at any moment.
"What news do you bring?" The Sect Master added, eyes dimming down.
With a cunning and creepy smile, Beta Fang relayed the deeds of Mu Chen's provocative words after leaving the Sect Master's wife's room.
The Sect Master's eyes flashed with a mix of disbelief and anger, when he heard this, his veins almost popping up.
Last night was fun, you have too much stamina, I will visit you again tonight, don't tell the sect master about our affair!
Beta Fang repeated Mu Chen's alleged words with a few made-up words.
The Sect Master's face darkened, his shaken-heart state momentarily forgotten in the face of this revelation.

Beta Fang, being a minor side villain, was a magnet when it came to attracting the protagonist and Mu Chen was just another fat sheep, ready to be played at the hands of Bai Lung.
Beta Fang and Mu Chen had a past together where Beta Fang had eloped with Mu Chen's gold digger fianceè, of course, it happened outside the sect and that bitch left Beta Fang for someone else.
However, there was still chaos in their heart, Mu Chen fully prepared to shred Beta Fang into pieces.
Mu Chen was an inner disciple and most recently after the death of Ling Fei, he has been shining more, making some good cultivation breakthroughs.
Not to mention, he has already reached alchemy master at decimal age, which is a powerful feat.
[ Decimal = From age 50 to 200 ]

"Good! Good! Very good! That bitch dares to sleep with someone else, what's more, I was planning on promoting Mu Chen to the core disciple," The Sect Master said angrily.
He wasn't unaware of Mu Chen, who is a prodigy in his sect, and recently became an alchemy master.
With the title of alchemy master, even the sect master can't disrespect him however, how can he stay silent when the other party sleeps with his concubine?
Outrageous! Mu Chen is courting death, a fool who is yet to know the difference between heaven and earth.
The so-called Sect Master's Concubine was a pitiful girl whom he had taken pity seeing her beauty.
Even though she was beautiful, She lacked cultivation Talent and this woman was none other than Saintess's birth mother.
Meanwhile,
Seeing the anger in the Sect master's face, Beta Fang smirked as he began to add fuel to the fire even more.
"Sect Master, let me tell you a personal thing, I have seen Mu Chen use Devilish arts before, I highly believe, he used some kind of enchanting technique on Sect Mistress and turned her into his puppet, I also highly believe... Not to mention, Mu Chen and Ling Fei had a good connection,"
"Of course, you can choose to ignore my words but I feel Mu Chen is using some enchanting taboo method to puppet everyone," Beta Fang added.
Obviously, most things coming out of his mouth were fabricated lies but he believed it was enough to turn the tables in his favor.
Beta Fang wanted to use this tactic to kill Mu Chen silently through the hands of the Sect Master, however, his insight was lacking as he didn't know the concept of the chosen son of heaven.

A/N: I know the sect master is supposed to be thousands of years old monster but I try to keep his character natural, if you think he should be more smart and cunning, comment it.
