344: Chapter 344 Bai Suzhen, she's fallen in love!

Rumors in the outside world claimed that the Sacred Lord of the Boundless consistently cultivated in seclusion, ignoring worldly affairs.

In reality, however, it was because the Heaven-Swallowing White Python bloodline within her body had reached a bottleneck.

She was forced to wander through the mortal world.

Searching for that ethereal, fleeting opportunity to cross the river and transform into a dragon.

Her younger sister, Xiao Qing, who loved wearing a cyan gauze dress and was charming and spirited, was a great demon of the Integration Realm.

She was also the high-and-mighty Saintess of the Cangmang Sacred Land, second in status only to the founder, Bai Suzhen.

She possessed a rare bloodline.

She was the most prestigious Saintess of a great sect in the entire Linghe Realm, specializing in the Dao of Divination and deducing heavenly secrets.

With these two great demons at the peak of the cultivation world's pyramid teaching him meticulously, combined with Su Chen's own powerful adult intellect and the half-Ancient True Dragon bloodline in his body,

Little Su Chen's path of cultivation was simply unstoppable, like crushing dry weeds and smashing rotten wood.

Under Bai Suzhen's guidance, he began his cultivation path at the age of two.

One day, when he was six years old,

after Su Chen let out a dragon roar,

his cultivation actually bypassed Foundation Establishment entirely, shattering the core to form a nascent soul in one fell swoop.

He made a forceful breakthrough to the Golden Core Realm.

A six-year-old Golden Core cultivator.

If this were known to the outside world, it would definitely cause ancient sacred grounds to fight over him; he was a legend of a generation sufficient to shock the entire cultivation history of the Linghe Realm.

Little Su Chen did not fail Bai Suzhen's high expectations.

And he was raised entirely by these two sisters from start to finish.

Spending days and nights together, the affection between the three had long since become too deep to be measured by words.

To Su Chen, his elder sister Bai Suzhen was an inviolable figure, like the pure white moonlight in the sky.

Despite her immense cultivation power, she happened to have a gentle, intellectual, and all-encompassing personality.

When teaching him cultivation, she would be extremely strict, tolerating not even the slightest sloppiness.

But at all other times outside of cultivation, she poured all her maternal instincts and indulgence into this child.

Like a mother, like a sister, and also like a teacher.

What made Su Chen feel somewhat helpless was,

because the half-True Dragon bloodline in his body was too violent,

during the cultivation process, the half of his bloodline that belonged to humans was easily unable to suppress it.

Under these circumstances, to avoid falling into cultivation deviation, he needed the pure origin of a high-ranking great demon to neutralize and suppress it.

Therefore, even as Su Chen slowly grew up, from a toddling child to a handsome boy, and then to a youth nearly 1.7 meters tall (due to the Dragon bloodline, he developed early),

Bai Suzhen did not care at all about the conventional boundaries between men and women.

She always insisted on personally feeding him the spiritual milk that contained her own pure origin.

Using her most fundamental essence, she nourished him as he grew strong and sturdy.

Meanwhile, Xiao Qing completely played the role of the rebellious 'younger aunt'.

Her nature was inherently straightforward and casual, fearing nothing in heaven or on earth.

Although she didn't care at all about Su Chen's cultivation progress and even frequently dozed off nearby,

taking Su Chen to cause trouble in the mountain forests, plucking the whiskers of thousand-year-old spirit beasts, and stealing spiritual herbs from other grotto-heavens,

were the things she was most enthusiastic about.

Every time they got into trouble, the two of them—one big and one small—would always be caught red-handed by Bai Suzhen.

Then, both would hang their heads and obediently receive a lecture while kneeling in front of the grotto-heaven.

Unfortunately, these quiet and warm times were destined not to last too long.

One morning, this peaceful daily routine was broken by a seed that quietly sprouted from the soil.

That year, Su Chen was eight years old.

Due to possessing the domineering True Dragon bloodline, plus the day and night nourishment of spiritual milk from Bai Suzhen regardless of the cost,

eight-year-old Su Chen had already begun to develop prematurely.

His stature had grown much taller, exceeding 1.75 meters.

His shoulders were broad, and the childishness had already faded from between his brows.

He faintly revealed a glimpse of his appearance from the actual High Martial World.

The morning light was faint.

As usual, after Su Chen finished consuming Bai Suzhen's warm and sweet spiritual milk,

with a face full of satisfaction and comfort, he fell into a deep sleep.

Bai Suzhen sat by the bedside, gently wiping away the glistening moisture from the corner of his mouth.

She habitually looked down along his sleeping face, intending to tuck in the corner of the quilt for him.

However, the moment her gaze swept past, Bai Suzhen's hand suddenly froze in mid-air.

She clearly saw that beneath the quilt, within Su Chen's thin layer of pants,

a massive 'little tent' had actually been pitched high up.

Although Bai Suzhen was an old virgin, as a thousand-year-old great demon, she was someone who could easily describe the physiological structures of all living beings.

That was definitely not a scale an eight-year-old child should have.

That was an instinctive symbol belonging to a mature male and vitality.

Thinking of this, she was a bit dazed.

Recalling how she had just completely defenselessly pressed his head against her (chest) just now...

Perhaps this brat was because of this reason that...

Amidst her wild thoughts,

two touches of moving rosy clouds instantly flew onto Bai Suzhen's exquisitely beautiful and cold face.

Even her crystalline earlobes became burning hot.

She had lived for ten thousand years and was used to seeing the world change.

But at this moment, her heartbeat became as frantic as a startled fawn.

"This little fellow..."

Bai Suzhen lightly bit her red lips with her pearly teeth, her gaze somewhat evasive, yet she couldn't help but steal a glance out of the corner of her eye.

"When did he... already become so masculine..."

As a thousand-year-old great demon, her Dao heart was naturally stable.

Although her status was noble and her cultivation profound, with countless pursuers,

Bai Suzhen had never had the thought of finding a partner.

It wasn't that she looked down on them.

On one hand, her identity as a member of the Demon Race was not well known in the Linghe Realm.

Even many cultivators in the Sacred Ground she founded herself were unaware of it.

Without knowing someone's true background, Bai Suzhen naturally had no desire to sleep in the same bed with such a person.

On the other hand, because her status was too noble, her range of choices for a partner was actually quite small.

Either their bloodline wasn't worthy of her, or they didn't understand her well enough to share their hearts...

Therefore, in the absence of a suitable partner, she had always felt that living together with Xiao Qing seemed quite good.

But now...

Su Chen, this child she had raised by herself,

perfectly met all the criteria.

For a moment,

a strange and throbbing emotion she had never felt before

quietly rippled across the lake of her heart, which had been silent for ten thousand years in this Peak Tribulation Transcendence great demon.

At this time, Xiao Qing, who was walking into the grotto-heaven carrying freshly picked spiritual fruits, happened to take in this entire scene.

Xiao Qing's footsteps suddenly halted; she looked at Su Chen, who had pitched a tent in his sleep, and then at her sister, whose face was full of bashfulness and whose eyes were hazy.

In those bright eyes that were proficient in deduction, she instantly understood.

She keenly perceived that in the way her sister looked at Su Chen, there was already something that absolutely shouldn't be there.

It was no longer simple master-disciple affection or a senior's love for a junior.

But rather the gaze of a woman looking at a man!
