After rebirth, the eldest sister voluntarily abdicated and gave way to the wise.

Chapter 395 And your favorite Kou Dan flower

Hong Yun's eyes wavered for a moment, then slowly calmed down. She took the initiative to walk over to Shui Lian'er, bent down, and pinched her tender little face. Her tone was quite sad: "As expected, you are a grown-up bird, already thinking about how to fly away. Alas, no one has pity on me, a lonely and beautiful woman."

“…” Everyone turned their eyes away silently.

Shui Lian'er's heart softened for a second when she saw her pitiful appearance, but the joy of being able to leave the sect soon overwhelmed the slightest feeling of guilt.

She firmly pushed away Hong Yun's hand that was pinching her cheek, straightened her back, and held her head high, demonstrating her determination: "I'm the future heir of Feixia Peak. How can I be a coward hiding in the sect? Mother, no matter whether you threaten me or talk me into submission today, I won't go back with you. I want to go down the mountain, I want to see the outside world, I want to take a step forward on the great road, and no one can stop me!"

Hong Yun looked at her fingertips and lowered her eyes to look at her: "Have you made up your mind and are you unwilling to change?"

Shui Lian'er nodded vigorously.

Hong Yun stood up straight, nodded, a hint of relief flashed across her eyes, but soon her eyes became extremely cold.

Shui Lian'er thought her mother had finally agreed to let her go down the mountain. Just as she was about to cheer happily, a bright red light hit her neck.

Jiang Liqian reacted the fastest, summoning the Zhenlingzhu and blocking Shui Lian'er in front of her.

Qin Beiyao also moved at the same time, pulling Shui Lian'er over and holding her tightly in his arms.

The attack of a cultivator at the peak of the Spirit Transformation Realm could not be blocked by a small golden elixir. Hong Yun had already restrained 99% of her strength just to knock Shui Lian'er unconscious, but Jiang Liqian was still beaten back repeatedly, and the spiritual power in his dantian surged violently in an instant.

Fortunately, Xu Youan rushed over in time and helped her stabilize the spiritual power in her body, so that she did not get seriously injured before leaving the sect.

But Master Hongyun was clearly angry. She looked at Jiang Liqian coldly and said in a cold voice, "Get out of the way."

Jiang Liqian pursed her lips, but still stood firmly in front of Shui Lian'er.

"Godmother, please forgive Li Qian's rudeness."

Master Hongyun laughed in anger: "Jiang Liqian, is this how you respect your elders?"

Jiang Liqian bowed her head, neither servile nor overbearing, wanting to plead for Shui Lian'er, to try and argue again: "Godmother, it's common for disciples of a sect to leave the sect for training. Even though Godmother is extremely reluctant to let you go, simply 'forcing' you to stay won't control a heart as strong as the mountains and seas, right? The way of heaven begins with the way of man, and the way of man begins with practice and experience. This time out of the sect for training, you will definitely reach a higher level."

"Then you also know that I raised her with the utmost care, providing her with the best food, clothing, and other necessities. No one in Feixia Mountain dared to look badly upon my daughter. In Tiangan Sect, she could walk around freely. No matter what disaster came her way, I would cover it for her. From childhood to adulthood, she has never suffered the slightest hardship. Even when it came to her cultivation, I never criticized her too much. That's why she has such an innocent personality."

Hong Yun turned her face away and retorted harshly.

"What's the world like outside? Cruelty, bloodshed, slaughter, and endless strife. Can a flower, raised with so much care and love, withstand the harsh winds and frosts of the outside world?

"I'm a mother. Can you understand how I feel? What would I do if something happened to my only daughter?"

Jiang Liqian was speechless after being refuted.

She had to admit that once she left the sect, life and death were like dancing on the edge of a knife. Even the most powerful people who had hidden themselves from the world of cultivation could not guarantee that they would not die outside.

Shui Lian'er is a treasure that Master Hongyun holds in her hands and protects. She has never experienced the ultimate love a mother has for her daughter, but she can understand it.

She was in no position to persuade a mother to put her daughter in danger.

Shui Lian'er saw that Jiang Liqian had also fallen silent, and she became anxious and shouted loudly: "Mother, you..."

"I will protect her safety!" Qin Beiyao suddenly spoke, breaking the confrontation between Jiang Liqian and Master Hongyun.

He looked at Master Hongyun's surprised eyes and swore a great oath to his inner demon with great resolve: "God is above me. I, Qin Beiyao, will protect Shui Lian'er with my own life. Unless I die, I will never let her suffer the slightest harm."

Every word is powerful.

The air was silent for a moment, and everyone turned to look at him, some surprised, some shocked, some puzzled, some understood. Shui Lian'er, who was held in his arms, was so moved that her eyes turned red.

The oath to the inner demon is related to the path to immortality. No one dares to make such a big oath casually. Shui Lian'er never thought that Qin Beiyao would be so determined to her.

If she had known he would do this, she would never have allowed it!

"Bei Yao, are you crazy? Take back your oath, take it back now!" Shui Lian'er was so anxious that she was about to cry.

Qin Beiyao let her beat his chest, his ink-black eyes fixed on her appearance, and suddenly he smiled.

"Sister Tianxian, how can I take back a vow I've made? Please don't embarrass me, okay? And I'm willing, absolutely willing."

Shui Lian'er felt as if her heart was no longer her own. All the blood in her body was rushing to her face. Her body felt light, as if floating in the clouds, or drifting in the sea with huge waves, and she was about to be drowned.

Is this... what the storybook says - "Having met a gentleman, how can I not be happy?"

"Beiyao..."

Master Hong Yun really didn't expect Qin Beiyao to make a great oath. She pursed her lips and looked at the two of them. She inexplicably felt like a villain stepmother who wanted to break up lovers.

She couldn't help but hold her forehead and laugh at herself. Was she that vicious?

Jiang Liqian saw that Master Hongyun's expression relaxed, and she quickly added, "Godmother, don't worry. After leaving the sect, I won't let my sister leave my side. Once the Tianling meeting is over, I will let them come back."

Xu Youan also said: "Senior Sister and I will watch her together, don't worry."

When it comes to doting on one's daughter, Master Hongyun can definitely be ranked first. She really feels sorry for Shui Lian'er. Now that she is so determined to leave the sect, and has friends protecting her... well, a bird always has to fly out of the cage to see the vast world.

"Well," she sighed, her expression relaxing. Then she looked at her fingernails with great distress. She had taken good care of them, and they were almost worn out.

"Just go out, and just come back safely." She threw a purse in Shui Lian'er's direction and left without looking back to take care of her nails. "Sister, remember to pay for them with spirit stones. Don't be stingy. Use them freely. There's enough."

Seeing Hongyun leaving, Shuilian'er chased after her, putting her hands to her mouth and shouting, "Don't worry, mother. When I come back, I will bring you the most beautiful dresses and jewelry, as well as your favorite nail polish flowers."
