Soon, Su Han tidied his clothes, picked up the mortal-grade refined steel longsword, and fastened it to his waist.
He opened the door.
He saw Tian Ling'er standing prettily at the doorway, dressed in a light green long dress, the hem gently fluttering with the morning breeze.
The sunlight shone on her face, making her eyes bright like stars, adding a touch of charming cuteness.
Her dark hair cascaded like a waterfall onto her shoulders, a few strands gently swaying in the breeze.
"Let's go."
Su Han looked at Tian Ling'er and said with a smile.
"Okay, let's hurry."
"Otherwise, if we're late, Mother will find out."
Tian Ling'er nodded quickly, her face showing the excited smile of a child secretly sneaking out to play behind their parents' backs.
Side by side, the two walked towards the Back Mountain.
At this moment, Su Han silently spoke to the system in his mind: "System, specify the entry to plunder from Tian Ling'er, Beast Mastery (Orange)!"
Previously, Su Han had been longing for the entry Beast Mastery (Orange).
It was just that back then, he didn't have the opportunity to plunder, so he had to temporarily put this idea aside.
But last night.
Because of his epiphany, Su Han's Taiji Profound Clarity Dao and Great Brahma Wisdom both broke through, granting him two chances to plunder entries.
Naturally, Su Han didn't hesitate and directly chose to plunder Tian Ling'er's Beast Mastery (Orange) entry.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully plundering the entry. Successfully plundered Tian Ling'er's entry: Beast Mastery (Orange)]
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully adding the entry. Obtained entry: Beast Mastery (Orange)]
Su Han looked at the system prompts and nodded with satisfaction.
"In the original work, Little Grey's strength should have ultimately reached the late Shangqing Realm or close to the peak of the Shangqing Realm."
"Now that I have an entry like Beast Mastery, which is beneficial for cultivating beasts, I wonder if it can help Little Grey break through to the Taiqing Realm?"
Although Su Han felt it was very difficult, after all, that was the Taiqing Realm, how could it be so easy to break through?
"But precisely because of this, there's a challenge, and it's interesting, isn't it?"
As he thought about it, Su Han suddenly thought of something else.
"It seems there are quite a few powerful Divine Beasts and Demonic Beasts in this world. Perhaps I don't necessarily have to limit my focus to Little Grey?"
"After all, the Beast Mastery entry doesn't only work on Little Grey."
"It applies to any beast!"
"Nine-tailed Celestial Fox Bai, should also be considered a beast, right?"
"If the Beast Mastery entry really works on Xiao Bai as well..."
Thinking of these things, Su Han couldn't help but feel a surge of anticipation.
Even if, taking a step back, the Beast Mastery entry doesn't work on demonic beasts that can transform into human form.
But Su Han was certain that it would work on Divine and Demonic Beasts like the Black Water Mysterious Snake, Yellow Bird, Candle Dragon, and Taotie , etc.
"If I can capture one of these and make it my pet, it will be a qualitative improvement to my strength!"
While Su Han was deep in thought, Tian Ling'er suddenly spoke to him.
"Su Han, Su Han, I heard that epiphanies bring great rewards. Is that true for you too?"
"Is that sword technique that can cut out a bright moon with one strike your reward?"
Su Han heard this, snapped back to attention, and smiled at Tian Ling'er.
"Yes, the rewards are indeed significant."
"For example, simply breaking through from Yuqing Realm - First Level to Yuqing Realm Second Layer, and obtaining a sword technique that is no weaker than the Qingyun Sect's Four Great Sword Arts."
"Huh?"
"Yuqing Realm Second Layer?"
"And a sword technique that is no weaker than the Qingyun Sect's Four Great Sword Arts?"
Tian Ling'er gasped in surprise upon hearing Su Han's words.
"Oh my goodness!"
"Those are the Qingyun Sect's Four Great Sword Arts..."
"You can actually create a powerful sword technique comparable to the Four Great Sword Arts!"
"And, you've already broken through to the Yuqing Realm Second Layer?"
Saying this, Tian Ling'er counted on her small fingers, one by one.
"I remember, how long did it take me to cultivate to the Yuqing Realm Second Layer?"
One month, two months, three months...
Soon, Tian Ling'er stopped counting and looked at Su Han with eyes full of envy and admiration.
"Su Han, Su Han, you're amazing!"
"I wish I could be as amazing as you."
"Then Daddy and Mother will definitely consider me the pride of our Da Zhu Peak, and they won't sigh anymore because our Da Zhu Peak disciples aren't living up to expectations."
"In the next Seven Peaks Tournament, I can also get a good ranking for Da Zhu Peak... I'm so envious."
Su Han smiled and ruffled Tian Ling'er's head.
"Even without my talent, you are your parents' pride, aren't you?"
"I can see that Shishu (Martial Uncle) and Shibo are very fond of you."
Hearing Su Han's words, Tian Ling'er couldn't help but tilt her head somewhat smugly.
"Of course, is there anyone who wouldn't like a cute little girl like me?"
After speaking, she pouted at Su Han with a hint of disdain.
"Hmph, you messed up my hair."
Saying this, she was about to use her hand to slap Su Han's big hand away.
Seeing this scene, Su Han smiled and directly moved his hand away.
Bang!
A crisp sound rang out.
Tian Ling'er didn't slap Su Han's big hand, but instead directly slapped her own little head.
"Wuwuwu~"
Although she didn't use much force, it didn't hurt much either.
But.
Tian Ling'er still pursed her small mouth, her eyes brimming with tears as she looked at Su Han, feeling wronged.
It seemed to say, how could you move your hand away? You should have let me slap it away.
Looking at Tian Ling'er's adorable appearance, Su Han couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Hmph, I'm not talking to you anymore. You're much more annoying than Xiao Fan."
"I take back what I said earlier about you not being annoying!"
After saying this, Tian Ling'er ignored Su Han and walked forward alone, feeling sulky.
However, Tian Ling'er was ultimately just a child.
Therefore, with just a few simple compliments from Su Han, such as calling her smart, beautiful, and cute.
Soon, she forgot about calling Su Han annoying and became 'the best friends in the world' with Su Han again.
The morning sun rose.
On the Back Mountain of Da Zhu Peak, Su Han and Tian Ling'er walked along the winding path, which was lined with lush bamboo forests on both sides, the emerald green bamboo standing tall and straight.
A gentle breeze blew, and the bamboo leaves rustled.
Even when there was no longer a path, Tian Ling'er still walked naturally in one direction.
It was clear that she had walked this path many times.
Along the way, Su Han had been using his No Sentient Being Aspect ability to sense if there was any trace of Little Grey and if there was any unusual spiritual energy anywhere.
And Tian Ling'er, like a cheerful little bird, chirped and chatted with Su Han, as if she had endless interesting stories to tell.
Sometimes she pointed at the flowers by the roadside, surprised by their beauty.
Other times she chased a colorful butterfly, her silver bell-like laughter echoing in the air.
Su Han listened quietly to her words, occasionally responding with a few sentences.
After an unknown amount of time, Tian Ling'er suddenly stopped and pointed at a tall mountain in the distance.
"Su Han."
"That's where the small waterfall is~"
