Chapter 6: Your Elder Martial Sister Is Your Elder Martial Sister! (1)
This is peace!
Sitting by the window of the spacious guest room and observing the endless flow of pedestrians on the street, Bai Lian’s lips curved into a joyful smile.
She thought Hening City was a good place. Everyone was working hard to live.
A man downstairs told stories, while a family behind the wall sang a beautiful song. Men farmed, women wove, and upstairs, two people discussed sword techniques. The sounds of card games, street vendors hawking Refined Qi Pills, and general chatter filled the air.
While sipping tea by the window, Bai Lian realized: though the joys and sorrows of people are not interconnected, joy can sometimes be contagious. She thought to herself that everyone had a bright future ahead.
No wonder Heluo’s national strength had been rising in recent years. Bai Lian thought of the Duxian Sect. When would the Duxian Sect become just as vigorous?
—
“Elder Martial Sister!”
Bai Lian had just finished her cup of green tea when the two younger martial sisters approached her.
After finding a place to stay, their next plan was to explore the city. Once familiar with the area, they would head to the Chuncao Pavilion to obtain the incomplete ancient elixir’s prescription.
Bai Lian’s gaze fell on the jade rabbit.
“Haw.”
The jade rabbit, lying on the bed, suddenly perked up its rolled ears, which wagged from side to side.
No.
Boring.
With Xiao Jinse on her left and Su Youwei on her right, the jade rabbit found the idea of going out too boring!
“Then you can rest here. We’ll be back soon,” Bai Lian said, rising to her feet.
She wasn’t genuinely interested in shopping; she usually spent her time cultivating when others explored.
The sunlight in Hening City was warm, and wherever there was noise, Bai Lian was there.
Along the way, she watched monkey street shows, caught thieves, and mediated family disputes. By the time she neared the Chuncao Pavilion, she had triggered four tasks.
“Reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles—this old saying is true,” she mused.
“No wonder cultivators like to descend the mountain for training. They really do grow stronger!”
Her smile brightened. She had grown stronger herself!

Xiao Jinse looked at Bai Lian with adoring eyes.
To her, Martial Sister Bai Lian’s smile was brighter than the warm spring sun. It was the first time she’d seen someone smile so genuinely after performing good deeds.
This was what a Natural Saint should be!
Before meeting Martial Sister Bai Lian, Xiao Jinse had only heard the world praise her virtuousness. But after being brought back to the Duxian Sect by her, experiencing her care day and night, she realized that Bai Lian truly treated all her disciples well.
Today, however, Xiao Jinse finally understood why Bai Lian was named a “Saint.”
It wasn’t just about strength. Bai Lian was simply that rare kind of person.
When fishermen sighed over their inability to catch fish, Bai Lian offered new ways for them to earn money. When couples quarreled, she patiently mediated, revealing that their issues were mere misunderstandings.
While these acts weren’t monumental, they stood out. Among the bustling crowds, only Bai Lian was willing to step forward, making her kindness as precious as gold.
Bai Lian’s reputation as a Natural Saint was built through her own hands.
From afar, she looked like a fairy, yet up close, one could see she was deeply connected to the world of mortals.

Xiao Jinse recalled the recent announcement by the Yuantong Sect.
The sect commended a deacon who had driven a villain off a flying boat for insulting Bai Lian. The announcement praised the deacon’s timely intervention:
“It’s not advisable to be jealous of good people! We, the Yuantong Sect, are determined to draw a clear line from such villains!”
The announcement concluded:
“If everyone did good deeds, would this world still be a sea of suffering? Would heaven only exist in legend?”
Xiao Jinse glanced at Bai Lian. A single sentence flashed through her mind:
The world is colorful, but I am pure white!
—
In contrast, Su Youwei had simpler thoughts.
She didn’t need grand realizations. As long as Bai Lian didn’t dislike her, she was content to be Bai Lian’s sword—ready to strike wherever Bai Lian directed.
Her own comfort didn’t matter. What mattered was Bai Lian’s happiness.
After all, her inner demon had taken the shape of Bai Lian!
“Don’t dawdle. Hurry and follow me,” Bai Lian called out, already stepping into the Chuncao Pavilion.
“Coming, Elder Martial Sister!” Xiao Jinse replied.
She turned briefly to look at Su Youwei.
This is a strong rival, she thought. But no one should dare mock Martial Sister Bai Lian. If outsiders tried to harm her, Xiao Jinse would cut them down!
—
The grass was so green!
Bai Lian, bored as she waited for the Chuncao Pavilion disciples to bring the ancient elixir prescription, glanced at the pavilion’s signs. Her eyes wandered further.
Since the news of the ancient elixir repair spread, the Chuncao Pavilion had become a bustling place. Everywhere she looked, there were people.
This liveliness was what Bai Lian felt at that moment.
