After listening to Gu Zhou Jian, Yue Guang nodded in satisfaction. Though they hadn’t had much interaction before, after hearing a summary of what had happened over the past two years and Gu Zhou Jian’s responses, she knew that he could potentially stand on equal footing with her in the future.
However, she was still curious why the two of them had co to the Kunlun Mountains. Jun Wu Xiao being able to go out for two years ant that now, no matter where he was, he could still cultivate, so there was no need to return. She asked:
"Why have you both co back here?"
"Earlier, I ntioned testing that weapon. It caused a lot of commotion, so I’m sure many people have figured out my identity by now. Humans now have satellites in space, so they can observe from above, and there are also many caras. But if I return to the Kunlun Mountains, they won’t bother because they know their limits." Jun Wu Xiao replied.
Hearing this, Yue Guang understood why he had co back. It turned out he returned to avoid being disturbed, otherwise, he would have stayed out longer.
However, she was intrigued by the so-called satellites and caras, so she asked:
"Are those things really that useful?"
Jun Wu Xiao nodded and replied:
"They are high above and can send images to people. Caras are similar but not as high as satellites. These things will be very useful for humans if monsters attack again. They can know the location and direction of the monsters to aid in evacuation."
Yue Guang nodded. On the battlefield, information was extrely important. Having such tools along with weapons with great destructive power ant that humans now had the ans to defend themselves.
The only question was how strong the monsters would be the next ti they appeared. If they were too powerful, cooperation with high-level cultivators would be necessary to combat them.
"I also ca back to tell you a thod to speed up cultivation after reaching the energy-gathering realm. I call it alchemy. Focus dark energy from nature into your palm as quickly as possible until you can’t hold it anymore, then channel it into your body. Doing this can double the speed of your cultivation." he continued.
Yue Guang also like the friends in the capital area, asked:
"How is this different from normal cultivation? Why can it double the speed?"
Jun Wu Xiao replied:
"I can’t say for sure, but based on my observations, it’s because the old thod has its limits. The alchemy thod doesn’t have that problem. Don’t ask exactly why, I don’t know. I just stumbled upon it by accident. And cultivators below the energy gathering realm can’t use this thod because they can’t sense dark energy yet."
Yue Guang nodded. She didn’t need to understand the reason too deeply. As long as the thod was effective, that was enough. Knowing more wouldn’t solve anything. She said:
"Then you go and tell the others about this. I’ll continue cultivating."
Jun Wu Xiao nodded and replied:
"Alright."
"Goodbye, sister." Gu Zhou Jian said, then left with Jun Wu Xiao.
He brought her along to introduce everyone to the new mber. They had t almost everyone, except for Chen Wo Lun.
Soon, they found him. Seeing his elder brother with a strange young girl, Chen Wo Lun felt curious and asked:
"Big brother, who is this little girl?"
Gu Zhou Jian, of course, knew the relationship between Chen Wo Lun and Jun Wu Xiao. She smiled and said:
"Ha ha, hello, little brother. I am his path companion."
Chen Wo Lun’s face turned dark upon hearing this. It felt really strange for a child to call him "little brother." He frowned at Jun Wu Xiao and asked:
"Big brother, is she serious?"
Jun Wu Xiao saw his incredulous expression then laughed:
"Ha ha ha, it’s exactly as you heard. She is indeed my path companion."
Hearing this, Chen Wo Lun was a bit shocked. He didn’t know where his brother had found a path companion. Moreover, she was so young she could be his great-grandchild. He asked:
"You... are you out of your mind? Why did you suddenly develop a liking for children?"
Gu Zhou Jian was displeased by this and scolded:
"Who are you calling a child? You’d better watch your words."
Being scolded by a body refinent realm early stage cultivator for the first ti left Chen Wo Lun temporarily stunned. He thought:
"Damn it, she’s got so guts. Even though I’m a food avoidance realm cultivator, the pinnacle of humanity right now, she dares to speak to like that."
But she was indeed his elder brother’s path companion, so he couldn’t hit her now. If he wanted to fight, he would have to wait until she was strong enough. Currently, she was too weak.
Moreover, if Jun Wu Xiao acknowledged her, it ant she truly had that status. He said:
"But I can’t call you big sister like Yue Guang because you’re much younger than ."
Gu Zhou Jian replied:
"Who said you have to call sister? Just address as an equal, like a friend."
Hearing this, Chen Wo Lun felt much more at ease. He laughed and said:
"Ha ha, that’s fine. If calling you as big sister..."
Gu Zhou Jian glared at him, causing him to change his words:
"If an old man like calls a young girl a big sister, it won’t be very good for you."
Only then was she satisfied and nodded, while Jun Wu Xiao thought, "Ha ha, she really is brave. But it’s good this way, too. Because if she were too timid, she wouldn’t fit in with this group of old n and won."
Considering their ages, everyone else in the group was born many years before Gu Zhou Jian’s grandfather. If they t soone overly formal, the conversations would feel very uncomfortable.
"Now, I’ll take her around to get familiar with the place and then find a spot for her to cultivate. You continue your secluded cultivating, we won’t bother you anymore." Jun Wu Xiao said.
Chen Wo Lun nodded and replied:
"Alright, I’ll be on my way then."
With that, they parted ways, each doing their own thing. Jun Wu Xiao took Gu Zhou Jian on a tour around the Kunlun Mountains to get her familiar with the terrain, then arranged a vacant area for her to cultivate.
