For most of the Black Star Sect disciples, it was like the seven stars constellation that pointed to the location. Even if they were thousands of miles away, they could still locate the Black Star Sect by looking for this pumice stone in the sky.

However, few people knew that there was actually a palace on this stone, called "Black Star Palace."

This was actually one of Si Xuanji\'s thousands of dwellings.

Because it was built too high, the air was thin, and the sky above the palace was always densely covered with stars, so even at midday, it was pitch black.

At this time, the \'girl\' was lying on her side before a chessboard, barefoot and with her eyes tightly closed, waiting for Qi Baishi, who was sitting opposite her, to finish counting the number of moves on the chessboard.

After lifting the last white piece, Qi Baishi said with a slight hint of regret, "Matriarch, I\'ve made a draw with you again."

"Mm-hmm."

Qi Baishi tidied up and put away the chessboard, then said, "Matriarch, do you know about the Seven Slayers Sect matter?"

"Well, I have read the notes sent by Mr. Lei. Is there anything else you want to say?"

Qi Baishi stroked his beard and nodded. "I think this matter is suspicious."

"..."

"When Elder Lei went to the Fort of Secrets, he found a map of the Black Star

Sect\'s magical defense in the storeroom. However, when he brought Ku Jiuchong back for questioning, he said he didn\'t know about it and still hadn\'t admitted that he had spied about our sect\'s defenses..."

"So?"

Qi Baishi cupped his hands. "I suspect that a third party wanted to use the Black Star Sect to destroy the Seven Slayers."

"Hmm." Si Xuanji nodded, "Who do you suspect?"

"I dare not guess at random. The Seven Slayers Sect has made countless enemies over the past thousand years. In addition, this matter also involves the Magical Poison Sect, so there are simply too many people with motives. But after all..."

"Then, how about sending this old fellow Lei to the border of the Western Region to guard the wall for thirty or fifty years?"

"?" Qi Baishi was stunned, unable to follow her thoughts.

"The Great Elder of the Black Star Sect was used as a weapon by someone else. He doesn\'t feel embarrassed, but I feel embarrassed for him." Si Xuanji sighed softly. "Besides, that old fellow should retreat for a while. He likes to fart when he has nothing to do, and I was woken up by him several times from my naps. I was very annoyed. It will be a lot quieter after sending him away."

After hearing this, Qi Baishi understood what Si Xuanji meant:

---I don\'t want to get involved with the Seven Slayers Sect. If you want to investigate further, that\'s up to you. Anyway, don\'t bother me with this matter in the future, otherwise I will send Lei Wanjun to guard the wall for thirty to fifty years.---

"..."

Qi Baishi didn\'t say any more, fearing that if he did, she would really send Lei Wanjun to guard the border wall.

After a pause, he changed the topic. "By the way, Young Miss has passed the sect selection. Matriarch, aren\'t you going to visit her?"

"Didn\'t I visit five years ago?" Si Xuanji opened her yin and yang eyes and said lazily, "She annoys me when I go too often."

Qi Baishi was speechless, but somehow, he could understand.

Si Xuanji\'s lifespan was almost endless. To her, five or six years was the same as a few days for an ordinary person.

"Matriarch, maybe five years is just a fleeting time for you, but for Young Miss, it is really five seasons. In fact, Young Miss has been looking forward to your visit..."

"I know."

"Then, why do you...?"

Si Xuanji sighed. "I went to see her, but we just had a chat at best. Not only is it not good for her, but it will also make her overly dependent on me. If she stays in my arms all the time, that girl will never grow up."

"..."

"Look how that girl is now, if it wasn\'t for you elders spoiling her so much, would she be like this?"

"As a matter of fact, Miss Xiao has always been very diligent..."

"Yunluo is a lot more diligent than other kids, but..." Si Xuanji paused for a while. "There is still a long way to go."

"..."

Si Xuanji looked at Qi Baishi\'s face, sighed softly, and explained. "Mr. Qi, you should understand. The path to immortality is not about the comforts of a family. Whether it\'s me, you, or the sect elders, we all came out of the sea of ​​blood before. I can protect her for a while, but it is impossible to protect her all her life."

"..."

"Besides, she is my only daughter. If I were not the head of the Black Star Sect but an ordinary, insignificant cultivator, there would be no need to be so harsh on her. However, tens of thousands of people are watching me in this Four Realms Heavenly Domain, and those who watch me must be watching her too. I don\'t want my only daughter to die for nothing..."

Qi Baishi nodded speechlessly.

"Poor families have difficulties, and upper-class families also have their difficulties..."

"So, she\'s about to start the Foundation Building, right?"

"Well, she started in the past few months." Qi Baishi thought for a while and continued, "In theory, after entering the Foundation Building stage, she needs to travel in the mountains. Young Miss usually travels alone, so I thought it would be best to find her a companion. What do you think, Matriarch?"

Si Xuanji nodded. "Yes, that\'s fine."

"In that case... do you have someone in mind?"

Si Xuanji smiled.

She had actually thought of a candidate long ago. She was just waiting for Qi Baishi to ask about this matter, and then she would smoothly bring Ye Anping to the forefront.

But she couldn\'t say it directly because it would give others the feeling that she has \'appointed\' Ye Anping.

"What do you think?"

"How about Chen Chen, the chief disciple of the Heavenly Cloud Peak?"

Si Xuanji shook her head and said, "No, it is best to find someone who has nothing to do with the sect. This person should have a good personality, be organized and clear-minded, and preferably be around the same age as Yunluo. As for the cultivation level and spiritual roots, they don\'t matter."

Qi Baishi nodded. He actually wanted to recommend the Young Master of the Hundred Lotus Sect from the beginning, but he couldn\'t give the impression that he had \'appointed\' him, lest Si Xuanji thinks he had ulterior motives.

Thus, he pretended to think for a while before saying, "In that case, how about the Young Master of the Hundred Lotus Sect? He seems to be of a comparable age to Young Miss, has an ascetic cultivation background, is quick-witted, and quite a good person."

?

Si Xuanji was taken aback, how come Mr. Qi thought of Ye Anping as the second candidate? She was all set to provide some more guidance...

After hesitating shortly, Si Xuanji pretended not to know Ye Anping and asked, "I\'ve never heard of him, but since you recommended him, does that mean you\'re satisfied with him?"

"That\'s true... I didn\'t notice him at first, but..." Qi Baishi stroked his beard and said, "In the written test for this selection, one person got full marks from me."

"Oh?"

"That girl\'s name is Pei Lianxue, and she entered the sect as the companion of Taixu\'s disciple. She is the younger sister of the Young Master of the Hundred Lotus Sect, and the answer to the Dao Shin was given to her by him, so I inquired about it... That kid seems to have opened a shop in the town market. I heard he doesn\'t want to rely on his parents but wants to be self-reliant. That can also give a glimpse of the kid\'s character... Also, that Pei Lianxue girl has a pretty good personality, and I guess he should be the same... The only thing is that his spiritual root is a bit weak, with dual spiritual roots of water and wood."

He actually got his sister to obtain a perfect score from Mr. Qi?

Truly worthy of being the person I have my eyes on... Si Xuanji waved her hand, pretending to be indifferent. "Since you think so, let him try it. If it doesn\'t work, just send him away."

"Alright." Qi Baishi agreed.

"Incidentally, I was thinking of handing over the spirit stone vein in Dragon Cloud Valley to the Hundred Lotus Sect to take care of it. In a while, I will write a note and you will ask Yunluo to send it to the Hundred Lotus Sect. That way, they can get accommodated with each other first."

"I have no objection."
