"Then, he must have wished for a life with three wives and four concubines, surrounded by beautiful women, right? You men always think about these things!"
Zhen Xian pouted, her bright eyes fixed on Lin Qiubai's profile.
"Not at all..."
Seeing that the Little Girl couldn't guess his intentions at all, Lin Qiubai smiled mysteriously. Then his expression changed, his face filled with sorrow and indignation, and even his tone turned mournful.
As if he were a handsome man who had reincarnated for nine lifetimes: "That handsome man cried out to the heavens: In this world, where there are men, there are women; where there are women, there are men. Yin and Yang must be in harmony!
This is the principle of Yin and Yang in heaven and earth. I, Zhao Ritian, am talented and virtuous, having done good deeds for nine lifetimes, yet I have been lonely for nine lifetimes, harboring a hidden ailment I dare not speak of!
Heaven plays tricks on me; what could be worse than this? Where is justice? Where is humanity? Where is the way of heaven? Where is natural law?"
Lin Qiubai's words rose and fell dramatically, causing a hint of sympathy to appear on the beautiful face of the Little Girl.
Indeed, why has such a talented and virtuous handsome man been lonely for nine lifetimes? It's truly pitiful...
"And so the angry handsome man who had reincarnated for nine lifetimes shouted to the heavens before dying: If Yin and Yang cannot be harmonized, what use is heaven? What will another reincarnation change?
In this world, everyone can play music together in harmony, but only I have been unable to rise for nine lifetimes!
Heaven is blind; what can be tolerated when this is unbearable!
I, Zhao Ritian... if I die in this lifetime, even if my soul disperses, my little bird shall point straight to the heavens, standing tall for ten thousand years! To quell my resentment of being unable to rise for nine lifetimes!
Cough cough... this is the tale of a man who died with his bird facing the sky..."
Lin Qiubai shamelessly concluded his lengthy speech.
As soon as he finished speaking, Little Girl suddenly blushed, her cheeks and even the nape of her snow-white neck turning crimson…
Her shy appearance was quite amusing.
“Pah pah pah! You scoundrel! Scoundrel! Scoundrel!”
Lin Qiubai did not dodge or avoid her, wearing a sly smile as he allowed the bashful Little Girl to punch his shoulder repeatedly…
A tingling sensation spread from his shoulder.
Lin Qiubai felt a rush of excitement and couldn’t help but gently wrap his arms around Zhen Xian. The petite figure of Little Girl trembled slightly, biting her red lips, timid and shy, not daring to meet Lin Qiubai’s gaze.
The two walked side by side, taking slow steps.
After a while.
Little Girl suddenly lifted her small face: “I’ll take you to a place. I used to go there often when I was little; it’s really special.”
Lin Qiubai nodded and followed Zhen Xian to the Sect Back Mountain’s Open Valley.
This Mountain Valley was quite expansive.
Surrounded by towering mountains, in the center of the Mountain Valley, spiritual energy lingered, revealing a staircase made of one hundred and eight steps of white jade.
Lin Qiubai was quite astonished.
Because the White Jade Steps had no visible support but rose in a marvelous manner, piercing through the clouds like a floating pavilion, exuding an extraordinary aura.
"Is there really someone there?"
The Little Girl stood at the edge of the Mountain Valley, frowning as she looked towards the White Jade Steps, where three figures stood below.
The three were unfamiliar.
From their attire, it was clear they were not members of the Beast Taming Sect.
Lin Qiubai's gaze also fell upon the three individuals.
The leader among them was the Elegant Robed Youth standing in the center.
The young man had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, around the same age as Lin Qiubai, dressed in a purple robe adorned with golden phoenix patterns, which accentuated his noble demeanor.
On either side of the young man stood two Guards at the peak of the Creation Realm.
The three noticed Lin Qiubai and Zhen Xian's arrival and slightly turned their heads, but their expressions remained cold.
"Let's go; we can come back later..."
The Little Girl gently tugged at Lin Qiubai's sleeve, frightened by the presence of the three.
"Don't be afraid; it's safe to stay behind me... You wanted to show me the White Jade Steps, right?"
The Little Girl nodded, obediently hiding her small hand in Lin Qiubai's warm palm. In that moment, her heart felt as if it were soaked in honey, sweet and blissful, making her forget all about fear.
"I used to play around the White Jade Steps a lot when I was little.
The White Jade Steps are very special; they have existed for countless years within the Beast Taming Sect, yet no one has ever climbed to the second level. Talented individuals from other states have tried as well, but they all met with failure and left in disgrace."
Zhen Xian walked while introducing Lin Qiubai.
"I had a dream when I was young. It was to sit on the last step of the White Jade Steps and watch a sunrise..."
Zhen Xian showed a look of longing.
Three figures standing below the White Jade Steps sneered.
This girl is really foolish.
For so many years, no one has ever climbed to the second level of the Stairs!
Even standing firm on the first level of the Stairs is extremely difficult.
This girl actually dares to boast about wanting to sit at the top and watch the sunrise, not afraid of being struck dumb by the wind.
After being mocked, Zhen Xian's innocent smile faded, and she stopped speaking, carefully hiding behind Lin Qiubai.
Lin Qiubai rubbed her head but looked unfriendly at the three figures.
"Don't be afraid, my Azure Wing Thundercloud Leopard is coming. We'll sit on it to watch the show."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Azure Wing Thundercloud Leopard rushed in from the entrance of Mountain Valley like a bolt of lightning, arriving in front of Lin Qiubai in an instant.
The three people’s expressions froze.
When did the Beast Taming Sect manage to tame a Beast King at the peak of the Creation Realm!?
And it's a young boy who looks incredibly youthful!
The Guard beside the Royal Youth became tense, vital energy circulating throughout his body, beads of sweat forming on his forehead, ready to respond to any sudden changes.
A peak Beast King from the Creation Realm; even if the two of them joined forces, they would have to pay an extremely heavy price to win.
"Please, go ahead. We are just here to watch."
Upon hearing this, the Royal Youth's expression darkened. Song Ming had a high ranking among the princes in terms of strength, and he had a good chance of competing for the throne in the future! When had he ever been subjected to such humiliation?
If it were an ordinary Sect disciple, he would have violently driven them away without hesitation.
But Lin Qiubai was different; he wore the attire of a Sect Master and had a peak Beast King from the Creation Realm by his side! That Beast King was so powerful that even the Guards on either side did not dare to act recklessly.
"What’s wrong? Please, go ahead. My Little Girl and I are just here to watch."
Lin Qiubai's tone carried a hint of mockery. The ridicule they had directed at Zhen Xian was now being returned in full force, even intensified.
"Hmph! I will remember you..."
Song Ming was quite annoyed, flicking his sleeves and choosing to ignore Lin Qiubai as he shifted his gaze to the Stairs above.
Seeing Song Ming endure this humiliation, Lin Qiubai couldn't help but laugh.
Not far away, Song Ming shot an even more furious glare at Lin Qiubai.
He deeply regretted why he had provoked this petty individual.
Was it just a bit of mockery directed at that girl? How could he end up being mocked in return! Truly infuriating!
Taking a deep breath, Song Ming gathered his scattered thoughts and focused intently on the White Jade Steps, murmuring softly, "I must try to see if these White Jade Steps are truly as difficult as legend has it!"
After saying that, Song Ming gritted his teeth and resolutely took a step forward.
With that step, his heart sank into the Abyss.
The Stairs were filled with an endless pressure, squeezing his body from all sides, causing his muscles to start aching, and his Vital Energy was suppressed to the point where it could not circulate.
In shock, Song Ming immediately stepped back.
He covered his chest and gasped for breath.
"Has no one ever been able to climb the second level of the White Jade Steps?"
Lin Qiubai was filled with doubts. This White Jade Steps in the Beast Taming Sect had no use at all? It was completely just a decoration?
"Yes, it is said that for over a thousand years, no one in the entire Xian Sheng Dynasty has figured out the purpose of the White Jade Steps. Moreover, it is extremely heavy and cannot be moved. So it has remained here for a long time, with few people paying attention to it."
Zhen Xian answered seriously.
"There must be some incredible secret hidden within it; I will also give it a try."
With that, Lin Qiubai strode towards the White Jade Steps...
