Time Travel: The Heroine Has Arrived!

Gu Shengyin had stayed on Xuan Ke’s Lingyun Peak for a good while until all the injuries inside and out had healed completely before Xuan Ke allowed her to leave.

She took the time to visit Lingxiao Peak and presented the Tai Sui she had obtained to her Master.

Venerable Ling Xiao merely shook his head, “My Sword Dao has reached its limits, and the only vitality left is to break through once more; otherwise, it’s just a struggle to breathe for a few hundred more years.”@@novelbin@@

Gu Shengyin felt a sourness in her heart, but she revealed a smile, “With Master’s mastery of Sword Dao, you are bound to make a breakthrough.”

Venerable Ling Xiao looked gently at his only disciple, “The only thing I worry about is you, but I have already asked your elder brother, and he will take good care of you.”

His words already made the worst plans.

Since coming back from Lingxiao Peak, Gu Shengyin had been downhearted.

Xuan Ke knew she was worried about her Master Uncles’ situation.

“Life and death are dictated by fate; since your Master Uncle has accepted it, why should you cling stubbornly to it? As a Sword Cultivator, one must have the resolve to face everything directly.”

Gu Shengyin understood this principle, but while she could accept it logically, emotionally she couldn’t adapt so quickly; after all, since her arrival in this world, Ling Xiao had been both a teacher and family, accompanying and teaching her for ten years.

Seeing this, Xuan Ke knew that besides the disciple herself coming to terms with it, no one else could help.

Xuan Ke suggested that Gu Shengyin should start teaching at the Astrolabe Sword Sect.

With her status as a Sword Emperor, teaching disciples who were merely at Sword Guest Rank would certainly be more than sufficient.

Xuan Ke merely wanted Gu Shengyin to find something to distract her attention; having spoken to the Sect Master of the Galactic, his request was naturally granted.

When Bai Xinya returned to her own little courtyard, she just overheard several Outer Sect Disciples living in the same yard talking.

“Is it said that she is a Sword Emperor?”

“… and by seniority, she’s our Great Ancestor Master!”

“…” The female disciples stopped talking as soon as Bai Xinya entered, no longer speaking.

The atmosphere became somewhat awkward.

Bai Xinya, facing overt isolation, felt unbearably aggrieved; pain gripped her heart, and tears were about to spill out.

“Hey – don’t you cry!” one of the sharp-tempered female disciples blurted out, “If those of the Inner Sect see you later, they’ll definitely think we bullied you again, and we small Outer Sect Disciples can’t bear such accusations.”

Being choked off like that, Bai Xinya forced back the tears that were about to fall.

Seeing that no one was paying her any attention, she could only silently walk back to her own room.

“Tch! Who is she playing the delicate flower for all day long?” the previously speaking woman scorned.

Another female disciple chimed in, “Those brothers, isn’t that the type they like?”

They complained to each other for a while.

Among Sword Cultivators, females were rare, and those who chose to become Sword Cultivators were all individuals with a firm mind; naturally, they did not favor Bai Xinya’s tearful demeanor.

Moreover, they were not initially like this towards Bai Xinya.

But gradually, they realized that whenever they talked about certain topics in the yard, within a day, everybody in the Outer Sect would know about it.

Once they knew it was Bai Xinya’s doing, they were all immensely disgusted.

When they confronted Bai Xinya, she would still look at them with “pure and flawless” wide eyes, “Nothing is not fit to be spoken to others, and you sisters didn’t talk about any indecent topics…”

Their yard had simply become the joke of the Outer Sect.
