As a Father, I Just Want to Watch You Achieve Immortality Chapter 1564: Above Martial Saint Lies Martial Immortal, and I Tread on Thin Ice Because I Love Backstabbing

"Go after him!" Xi Xi’s small voice rang out, filled with more resolve than ever before!

"Their Sect Master was just slain! Since the Young Sect Master has to take charge now, let’s track him down and give him a beating!"

Xi Xi was brimming with a fierce fighting spirit.

"That is far too risky!"

Yun E shook her head firmly, her expression grave.

"The Heavenly Pill Divine Sect possesses power equal to our Qian Yuan. Even though the Imperial Court has diverted many of their elites, they are still a force to be reckoned with."

Zhou Peng chimed in immediately: "Sister Yun E is correct. We need to stay on track and reach the True Martial Divine Sect quickly to finish the mission Elder Li gave us..."

Yun E shifted her gaze from Zhou Peng to Xi Xi: "A Divine Sect is still a Divine Sect. Even with their leader dead, they still house numerous Martial Saints and Divine Fetuses. As one of the world's wealthiest sects, their total count of powerful cultivators might even exceed ours at Qian Yuan..."

"I am aware of your strength, Xi Xi. You took the top honors at both the Flat Peach Victory Meeting and the Chulong Victory Conference, but... at the end of the day, we are still children."

"We cannot overcome those adults."

As Yun E spoke these sincere words, Xi Xi had unknowingly wandered over to her side. She plucked the small rabbit from Yun E’s arms and balanced it on her head between her pigtails, her large eyes sparkling.

"Mm-hmm, Sister Yun E, you are so beautiful and so right!"

Little Fatty Zhou Peng felt slighted instantly. Did his advice carry no weight just because he wasn't as good-looking?

Turning to the silent Jin Taixui, Little Fatty Zhou Peng asked, "Old Jin, what’s your take?"

After a long pause, Jin Taixui replied, "I believe Xi Xi is right."

Fuming, Zhou Peng shoved three buns into his mouth at once to keep himself from shouting.

"If we must visit Guangling Dao City, we will just take a look. We must keep a low profile and avoid causing a scene. Our primary goal is still traveling the Tongyou Road to the True Martial Divine Sect to fulfill Elder Li’s request."

Yun E leaned down on her long legs, a playful grin appearing as she pinched Xi Xi’s cheek.

Xi Xi offered no protest.

She considered her options; with her current Cultivation, she didn't fear a Great Grandmaster. However, if a Martial Saint appeared...

She would likely have to flee as fast as she could.

Sighing, she realized that wandering the martial world was truly difficult.

Xi Xi let out a breath and then sprinted toward the outskirts of Guangling Dao City. Finding a tree, she dug a small pit, raised her hand to manifest a Thunder Chess Piece, and buried the white stone inside.

"This is a Thunder Chess Piece gifted by my father. With this... I, Li Nuanxi, am the greatest escape artist in existence!"

Xi Xi declared with a beaming smile.

"If danger comes, just get close to me, and I can teleport us all away."

Li Che, deeply invested in Xi Xi’s growth, had naturally gone to great lengths for her.

He had condensed the essence of the Dragon Elephant Vajra and the Chess Saint Dao Fruits into an image, embedding it within Xi Xi’s body.

This allowed Xi Xi to utilize the unique traits of those Dao Fruits.

She could now perform the Flying Thunder Chess Piece Teleportation, manifest the small chessboard between heaven and earth, use the Slumbering Dragon Elephant, and activate the Vajra Transformation.

Naturally, her power was not on the same level as the true Dao Fruit Power wielded by Li Che.

Only Xi Xi, acting as a sort of Dominator Avatar, could house Li Che’s Dao Fruit due to their blood bond.

No one else was capable of carrying such power.

Li Che had attempted this with Zhang Ya, but she couldn't sustain it; only Xi Xi was compatible.

"Let’s move!"

Once the Thunder Chess Piece was buried, Xi Xi packed the dirt down with her foot.

Then, she and her companions set off toward Guangling Dao City.

Dressed as wandering Jianghu Guests, the four children disappeared into the falling snow as they entered the city.

...

Guangling Dao City.

The Mountain Gate of the Heavenly Pill Divine Sect.

The Purple Gold Refining Pavilion.

"Clang clang clang——"

Within the sweltering heat of the Alchemy Pavilion, a massive pill furnace suddenly vibrated with a sharp, heavy ringing.

A figure in robes, sitting cross-legged before the furnace with messy hair, slowly pulled their eyes open.

A flash of crimson blood-light darted through their pupils.

"The scent of such high-quality human medicine..."

"The heavens are truly smiling upon me!"

...

Qian Yuan Divine Sect.

The Elder’s Court, Study.

Li Che opened his eyes slowly, the vision coming to an end.

"It is a relief that Yun E is with them. Without her, no one could control the wild Xi Xi... If left unchecked, that girl might actually try to invade the Divine Capital to slay the Emperor."

"She gives no thought to whether her Cultivation is actually high enough..."

Li Che shook his head slightly.

"So, they have arrived at Guangling Dao City?"

The news of the Heavenly Pill Divine Sect losing its leader—a top-tier Great God’s Sect Master—had already reached him, as Guangling Dao was right next to the Lingnan Circuit.

By leaving a fragment of his divine mind with them, he could constantly monitor the children's progress during their training.

Li Che then focused his mind.

He intended to use the Instant Enlightenment Feedback from his Dao Fruit to further his own strength.

However, a sudden thought struck him.

The [Emperor of Ten Thousand Demons] Dao Fruit in his chest seemed to be pulsing with a sense of indignation.

Recalling something, Li Che gave a soft smile, stood up, and took a lazy stretch.

"I nearly forgot about those four demon dragons..."

The Dragon God Clan, despite their name, were essentially members of the Demon Race.

The Dragon God Crown Prince and the three Dragon Sons could combine their skills to reach a power level equivalent to a Half-step Dragon God...

During the previous siege by the Imperial Court's army, they had caused significant trouble for the Qian Yuan Divine Sect.

Without Fang Hanshu’s sudden intervention, repelling the Imperial forces would have been incredibly difficult.

Furthermore, Li Che remembered the assassination of Xie Yun Shen, where a God Hunter Killer from the Hunting God Pavilion had intercepted Gu Qianchi, a Divine Tribulation Great Cultivator.

"The Great Elder... was actually a God Hunter Killer."

Li Che’s eyes narrowed slightly.

Even though Fang Hanshu had masked his presence, the Star Vortex Mask made his aura seem like that of an entirely different individual.
