Jiang Xiaorou the Tsundere
The night went by quickly and without anything happening. Since each of them just recently made a breakthrough in their cultivation, none of them advanced a stage either.
And after a quick breakfast, the trio started another day.
"Young Master, how do the Purification Stages work?" Xiao'er suddenly asked, "I know they are Small Success, Great Success, Perfection, Purification, and Compression, but how do I further temper my organs? They feel perfect enough."
"Nothing in this world is perfect, Xiao'er," Xue Bai replied, "If they were perfect, you'd be immortal. As for your question, I don't know what works for the Organ Tempering realm, but I do know what works for the other realms. So even if you feel like you can't continue to temper it, just keep going. There are always a few impurities deep within everything."
Xue Bai wanted to give his maid a straight answer, but he really couldn't. He had no experience with the Organ Tempering realm.
In the game, cultivation was automatic All Xue Bai had to do in 'Children of the Plane' was to kill demonic beasts or other cultivators, then press a button, and he'd advance a stage without any repercussions or worry about an unstable foundation.
The only thing that required actual effort were the Heavenly Tribulations that he eventually had to face. But Xue Bai wouldn't encounter a Heavenly Tribulation until he reached the Mortality Shedding realm, making that knowledge useless for a long time.
Yue Zifeng was also not on the mountain currently, so Xue Bai couldn't tell Xiao'er to go to his peak.
Xiao'er also realized that she was asking the wrong person for her question and didn't ask anything else before standing up and going to leave the room.
There was a small library on the peak, so hopefully, she could find something to help her there.
"Ah! I remembered." Xue Bai suddenly said, "First Senior Sister also cultivates the Purification Stages. Xiao'er, you can go to her."
Jiang Xiaorou was, for a long time, the only disciple of Yue Zifeng, a Spirit Awakening realm powerhouse from the Central Continent.
And Yue Zifeng also came from a prestigious background, even in the Central Continent.
So how could Jiang Xiaorou's cultivation only be in the Dharma Idol realm at 22?
It was obvious she was cultivating the Purification Stages as well. If not, she could easily be in the Law Engraving realm at her age.
"But First Senior Sister seems really… cold, Young Master." Xiao'er couldn't help but ask, "What if she tells me no and gets a bad impression of me? I'd rather go to the library than get on First Senior Sister's bad side."
Xue Bai only laughed, "Xiao'er, don't worry. First Senior Sister is just like Second Senior Sister. Neither of them can speak their true thoughts. It's just that First Senior Sister hides her thoughts in a different way."
Jiang Xiaorou was an iceberg beauty indeed, but she was different from most other people with the same personality. Rather than having complete indifference to the world around her, she genuinely cared for the people around her.
It was just that she struggled to portray her emotions well. It was mainly the fact that her village was wiped out by bandits, with her being the only survivor, that made her numb and extremely socially inept.
After all, not everyone had the will of Zhu Que, who could step out of that shadow in less than a month.
So to sum her up, Xue Bai just thought of her as a textbook tsundere in his mind.
Sadly he couldn't really say that phrase in the Baishen Plane, as Xiao'er would think he had hit his head again.
Hearing his words, Xiao'er looked indecisive for a few minutes but eventually took on a determined expression.
"Young Master, if she hates me because of this, then it's your fault," Xiao'er said. Then, following her words, she left the peak in search of their First Senior Sister.
Now in the dining room, only he and Zhu Que were left. However, they also both went their separate ways, each planning to do their own thing.
Since Zhu Que's path of cultivation was slightly different, she didn't need any help from Xue Bai. Thankfully she had the inheritance of the Azure Dragon God, making it simple for her to advance. Coupled with her Heaven-grade bloodline and her peak Earth-grade Martial Veins, she was destined to have no bottlenecks, unlike Xiao'er.
So after cleaning up the breakfast they just had, Zhu Que disappeared, planning to do whatever she normally did.
Xue Bai was curious and wanted to follow her, but on second thought, he held back.
Everyone deserved to have their own secrets, especially when they didn't harm anyone.
She most likely didn't want anyone to see what the Azure Dragon God gave to her, and she deserved her privacy.
Xue Bai would've done the same and is actually doing the same. So after looking at Zhu Que one more time before she left his vision, Xue Bai went to the library they had on the peak.
Ever since he looked at the map that was on Wu Tianyu, Xue Bai had yet to stop thinking about it.
Whatever area that was on it looked so familiar to him, but he couldn't place a finger on it.
Hopefully, the library had an extensive map of the Southern Continent and would be able to help Xue Bai find where the map was and what it was hiding.
–
"Senior Sister Jiang, it's Xiao'er!" Xiao'er yelled out as she reached Jiang Xiaorou's peak.
The iceberg beauty always had a seal on her peak, preventing anyone from entering without her permission.
So now Xiao'er was at the top of her stairs, hoping that Jiang Xiaorou could somehow monitor the outside world and let her in. If not, her goal would have failed before she even started it.
However, Xiao'er, once she put her mind to something, was persistent, so instead of going back to Xue Bai's peak, she stayed on the steps and waited for Jiang Xiaorou to notice her presence.
Going back home without the information she needed would only cause her to lose another day of cultivation, which to her was something horrible.
Once she got used to cultivating and starting to enjoy seeing her strength increase daily, losing that was like taking a piece of flesh from her.
Thankfully Jiang Xiaorou didn't take very much time, and within the hour, she floated out from her peak and looked down on Xiao'er from above.
"Why are you here, Junior Sister?" Jiang Xiaorou asked indifferently from above in her usual cold tone.
Xiao'er, excited that Jiang Xiaorou appeared, quickly stated why she was there before her Senior Sister left.
"Why are you cultivating the Purification Stages?" Jiang Xiaorou asked with a raised eyebrow, "Did Junior Brother not tell you how daunting they are? They delay your cultivation speed by a huge margin, and the effects they give aren't visible to people like you."
"Young Master told me to cultivate them anyway," Xiao'er said uncertainly. She wasn't sure why Xue Bai wanted her to cultivate the Purification Stages either, but since Xue Bai would never harm her, she obeyed with much thought.
"Cultivation requires one to have their own will." Jiang Xiaorou said with a frown, "Junior Brother is your Senior Brother, not Young Master. Those worldly bindings will eventually cut off your future cultivation path."
Jiang Xiaorou thought her words to be a helpful wake-up call to Xiao'er, but those were only her thoughts. Instantly after hearing those words, the face of Xiao'er grew a rare frown.
"First Senior Sister, while I do respect you and Master, I will not have anyone disrespecting Young Master and me!" And with a snort, Xiao'er turned to leave.
"Ah?" Jiang Xiaorou was stunned. How could someone as socially inept as she tell how close the relationship between Xue Bai and Xiao'er was?
Jiang Xiaorou had thought that Xiao'er only called Xue Bai Young Master because of a slave seal or something similar, not willingly.
"Junior Sister, don't be too hasty!" Jiang Xiaorou felt like crawling into a hole, "Ignore my previous words. I misjudged your relationship."
Jiang Xiarou quickly apologized, but toward the end, her face grew a small blush. This was the first time she had apologized for something ever since she joined the Soaring Sword Sect, and it was toward an Organ Tempering realm junior sister.
But Xiao'er didn't care. This cold woman insulted Young Master! No tip she could give her would make her forget.
"Junior Sister, don't be too hasty!" Jiang Xiaorou flew down and stopped Xiao'er by standing in front of her. But by now, her face had lost most of the indifference and was now truly red from her embarrassment.
"Hmph!" Xiao'er snorted in response. However, she did stop. Jiang Xiaorou was much stronger than her, and she already looked so apologetic. If Xiao'er continued to ignore her, she would only be rude.
"Come onto my peak. I'll help you with the Organ Tempering realm's Purification Stages." Jiang Xiaorou said and waved a hand, guiding Xiao'er to her peak.
Hearing the words she was waiting for, Xiao'er put away her anger.
"Then I'll be in your care First Senior Sister!" Xiao'er nodded and followed Jiang Xiaorou.
"Junior Sister, however, before we enter my peak, if you tell anyone what happened just now or what you see on my peak, I can guarantee you won't have a peaceful time at this sect." Jiang Xiaorou said quickly, returning to her previous self.
Sadly her previous appearance was already ingrained into the mind of Xiao'er. So even if she hid it as well as she did, XIao'er would never forget.
Whether only Xiao'er stayed, the only person who did know, was yet to be known.
Xiao'er did tell Xue Bai everything. So Jiang Xiaorou could only hope her threat worked as she led the girl to her peak, planning to help her with her cultivation as a Senior Sister should.
–
"It's over there?" Xue Bai muttered with anger in his tone.
When he first found the treasure map, Xue Bai had thought his luck was starting to take a turn.
Every time he looted a man or dead body, there was never anything useful for him, and even when there was, they either had a fine print or were only slightly useful.
So when he found the treasure map Xue Bai finally thought he could find something extremely good and make up for all the lost opportunities.
After all, even if the treasure was in some forbidden area that required great strength to enter, Xue Bai was fine. He was the personal disciple of a Spirit Awakening realm powerhouse and the son of two.
How dangerous could the forbidden land be if it was still on the Southern Continent?
But after he finally figured out where the map led to, his face couldn't help but cringe.
"This is the Monarch's Tomb, dammit!"
