the upper echelons of the base.General Zhou looked at the latest news compiled by his subordinates, his brows furrowed tightly. The temperature had dropped sharply. While supernatural beings were rel...Time flies, years pass quickly. In a blink of an eye, ten years have gone by. The ripples, who was ten years old, has grown up slowly in the Suxin Palace. Her heart, after ten years of conditioning by the Palace Master, has gradually healed. However, she still can't do anything too intense.

Although she was gifted in martial arts, she couldn't cultivate overly aggressive martial arts techniques. The Xu Nü Xuan Gong was very suitable for Lian Yi, and she had begun reciting the contents of the technique since she was young. When she started learning to read and write, she began cultivating the Xu Nü Xuan Gong.

Ripple has already unsealed half of the seal on her soul, so in terms of learning and understanding, she faces no obstacles, and sometimes even has a more precise understanding. Her cultivation of the Xu Nü Xuan Gong is also progressing rapidly, improving by leaps and bounds.

Also because of her physical reasons since childhood, she liked reading and copying books. She had copied all the manuals of exercises in the Su Nu Palace. As a former big shot in the cultivation world, Lian Yi's eyes were sharp. She could adjust the flaws in some exercises, and occasionally, when she was feeling inspired, she would also give pointers to the disciples in the palace on their cultivation.

The ripples became the unique existence of the Su Nü Gong, and also the tacitly acknowledged successor of the Su Nü Gong. This was a consensus reached by everyone, so the teachings towards Ripples were even more meticulous in their daily life.

Ripple knew that her body was not fully recovered yet, so she obediently followed the arrangements. She also offered some help to those who loved, cared for, and protected her.

The spiritual marrow hairpin that Empress Su Min wore in her hair was specially replaced by Lian Yi during her trip to the town below the mountain to buy birthday gifts for her master. She took advantage of this opportunity to swap it from the spatial dimension. On the eve of Su Min's 80th birthday, Lian Yi personally placed it in her hairstyle.

"Master, this is a birthday gift from your disciple. Be sure to wear it always, so you can always think of Lian Yi."

Ten-year-old Su Lianyi was as delicate and beautiful as a sculpture, incredibly pretty. Even wearing a plain white dress and looking a little pale, she couldn't hide her beauty.

“Good disciple, you have a kind heart. Master likes the gift very much. From now on, don't run down the mountain to play anymore. As long as your body recovers, that will be the best gift for your master.”

Su Min gently touched Lian Yi's bun hairstyle, and said with a smile.

"Disciple has taken note. Disciple's body will surely recover completely and in the future, I will definitely carry on the legacy of the Sù Nǚ Palace to its greatest glory."

The ripples understood and obeyed.

Essence is a treasure in the cultivation world, and even more so here. Su Minyi truly likes this plain jade hairpin that Lian Yi gave her, and she always wears it in her hair.

Whenever she runs her cultivation technique, the energy within her spirit marrow slowly permeates her body, gradually breaking through her cultivation bottleneck. As a result, she becomes increasingly radiant and youthful.

Susu keenly noticed this detail and privately asked Lianyi about it. Lianyi only said that she bought it from a stall at the market in town. It looked nice, and she happened to have enough silver to buy the hairpin. After haggling with the vendor for quite some time, she finally managed to get it.

The head of the Pure Palace asked the disciples who had been with Lian Yi that day, and their accounts matched those of the youngest disciple.

The headmistress of the Jade Palace thought this was just the stall owner being ignorant. After all, the other party was an ordinary person and had not learned martial arts, so naturally they couldn't perceive the hairpin's special use. It was also her apprentice's good fortune. So, she didn't ask about it again afterward, and the hairpin remained stuck in her hair bun.

Two years later, the Lord of the Pure Palace responded to the invitation from the former acquaintance, the leader of the God Gun Gate, to attend his son's wedding.

After the meeting between Su Gongzhu and Yu Menzhu, Yu Menzhu was greatly surprised. He exclaimed that Su Min's skills were successful, and she had mastered the art of staying young. Standing beside Su Gongzhu, he looked like a grandfather and grandson.

Although it might be an exaggeration, Su Minyi's maturity and elegance, coupled with the sense of vicissitudes she exudes over time, are evident to anyone who sees her. However, this doesn't stop people from flocking to Su Nü Palace to learn from her. After all, under the premise that immortality is unattainable, eternal youth is still a very appealing prospect.

Susu didn't expect that after staying out of the Jianghu for so long, attending a former acquaintance's son's wedding would unexpectedly bring fame to Su Nu Gong and a wave of people wanting to learn from her.

"Master, look, these disciples who have come here seeking guidance, should we accept them or not"

Su Lin asked in a low voice.

Sulin was usually the most composed person. Twelve years later, she handled most of the affairs at Su Nu Palace. Wang Zhenzhen, Su Yun, and Su Lan would help her share some burdens in her daily life. It was only because of the sudden influx of disciples who came to worship her as a teacher that she came to ask for guidance from her master.

Su Minyi, accompanied by her twelve-year-old daughter Lianyi, was in the midst of repairing a damaged martial arts scroll. Upon hearing Su Lin's words, she put down her pen and allowed Lianyi to rest for a while before speaking:

“Since people are willing to join, we shouldn't turn them away. However, we can't accept anyone and everyone. If some dishonest people infiltrate the Palace of Pure Maidenhood, it would bring disaster. We need to set some standards and choose those with good intentions.”

"Yes, disciple understands. I will prepare now."

For those who came seeking fame, have them reside in the vacant houses at the foot of the mountain first. Provide them with only three days' worth of provisions and observe how they conduct themselves. You should arrange for your disciples to secretly watch their words and deeds. This will also serve as a form of assessment.

"Yes, disciple understands."

Su Lin, having received the guidance, turned and left her master's study to prepare the necessary arrangements.

Liàn Yī was thoughtful, her brow furrowed.

"Ripples, what are you thinking about Your little face is all scrunched up."

The Sovereign of the Jade Palace smiled and asked. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Master, rumors in the martial arts world say that your cultivation method can grant eternal youth. Some may exaggerate, but it has also attracted so many disciples seeking to learn from you. I'm afraid some people might have ill intentions."

Ripple tilted her head and said very seriously.

"You are right. True martial artists all know that practicing martial arts not only strengthens the body but also effectively delays aging. The Xunyinfen Gong I practice is particularly effective in delaying aging compared to other methods. However, it's also because my master takes good care of herself both internally and externally, practicing diligently with a two-pronged approach."

"As my teacher, I have been practicing the Xuan Gong of the Pure Maiden for sixty years to achieve this effect. People with status and prestige in the martial world all know about it. Even if they steal my martial arts now, they still need to practice diligently and painstakingly to achieve this level. At most, they can just send their children here to learn from me."

The Palace Master of the Pure Palace didn't care about these rumors.

But ripples wasn't thinking that way. She paced around the study twice and then looked up and asked:

"Master, what if someone were to forcefully take your inner energy"

Upon hearing the ripples' query, Su Minyi paused her writing and replied:

Then it depends on their abilities. Although my surname is Su, I'm not a vegetarian.

Then ripples nodded, sat back down in her chair, and continued to deduce the martial arts techniques on the scroll.

Su Minyi glanced at Lian Ri, feeling a sense of admiration in her heart. Her young apprentice truly possessed a discerning mind, considering matters with such foresight.

Meanwhile, in the imperial palace, Princess Xiangyi gazed at the woman reflected in the mirror. The fine lines around her eyes, the drooping eyelids, and the clearly defined crow's feet all made her realize that she was no longer young.

"I'm old!"as allowed to take away after completing her last plane's mission."What is this"Su Min looked at the blood-red beads and asked directly.Liàn Yī didn't want to explain further, so she directly swallowe...
