"Ou Yifei, if I don't kill you sisters, I, Chen Nan, vow not to live as a human!"

In the woods at the border between Ningjiang City and Ninghai, Chen Nan stood up from the ground holding the barely breathing Ye Yiyi, his eyes filled with flames of hatred.

At this moment, Su Qingqing and Huo Xinya had rushed over.

Ye Yiyi had already fallen unconscious, her eyes tightly shut, though she was still breathing. Chen Nan glanced at the four of them and said, "Go home, don't go out unnecessarily. I need to take Yiyi to find my master, that's her only hope."

As he spoke, tears couldn't stop rolling down his face, dripping onto his junior sister's clothes.

"Sister."

Huo Xinya was also crying, tears streaming down her face.

Holding his junior sister, Chen Nan turned to leave, but at that moment, a streak of white light rapidly approached from afar. Xuan Tianji, with his flowing white beard, appeared before them, a folding fan lightly waving in his hand.

"Master, please save..."

"No need to say more."

Xuan Tianji waved his hand, then formed a Dharma Seal with his hands, imprinting it into Ye Yiyi's body.

Chen Nan quickly asked, "How is she? How long before she wakes up?"

Xuan Tianji turned to look at him, shook his head, and said, "It's too late. I can only keep her from dying but can't wake her."

"How can that be? Your cultivation is so high, you could even revive the dead. How can you not save her?" Chen Nan, emotionally charged, grabbed Xuan Tianji's clothes, shaking them a few times, roaring, "Isn't there a secret technique to trade a life for a life? Use it now, take my life for hers!"

"Nonsense!"

Xuan Tianji swung his sleeve and flung Chen Nan away.

"With unparalleled cultivation, you once resisted the invasion of the Heavenly People Clan on a deserted island, refining even stars from beyond the skies. With such divine skills, I refuse to believe you can't save her! Or do you simply not want to?" Chen Nan's eyes, blurred with tears, shouted, "She is your disciple too. Why are you so heartless, why!?"

Xuan Tianji stared at Chen Nan, and after a moment, said, "Have you vented enough? If so, shut up. I have placed a Soul Suppressing Seal on her, ensuring her safety for seven days. To save her, you must find the Life Source and bring back the Water of Life within seven days. Otherwise, after time passes, no one can save her."

Chen Nan urgently asked, "Where is this Life Source?"

Xuan Tianji turned his head, looking at Liu Tiantian, and said, "Her hometown."

Everyone turned their gaze towards Liu Tiantian.

Even Liu Tiantian herself was utterly confused, scratching her head, and asked, "Weird grandpa, you must have made a mistake. My parents are merchants and know nothing about cultivation. How could our family be related to this Life Source?"

"Your current parents are indeed merchants, but I'm referring to your true biological parents," Xuan Tianji said.

Liu Tiantian puffed her cheeks in annoyance, "Weird grandpa, why are you speaking nonsense? They are my biological parents!"

"Whether they are or aren't, you'll know once you ask. As soon as you inquire, they'll tell you where your real parents are, and you can accompany Chen Nan to your hometown to retrieve the Water of Life," Xuan Tianji said.

Liu Tiantian scratched her head, still somewhat disbelieving.

Chen Nan, on the other hand, didn't doubt it; after all, since Liu Tiantian started cultivating, she had mostly been breaking through one Heavenly Realm layer a day, and now she has the power of the Second Level of Taoist Cultivation.

With such terrifying cultivation speed, she is definitely not ordinary.

Chen Nan looked at the old man and asked, "So do you know where her hometown is?"

Xuan Tianji nodded, "I do."

"Since you know, why ask me to go through so much trouble? With your cultivation, getting the Water of Life should be effortless, right?" Chen Nan was a bit annoyed; he always felt the old man didn't really care about his junior sister, having turned her away as a child, and now...

Thinking about these things made Chen Nan feel bitter, wishing he could take on all the suffering his junior sister had endured.

Xuan Tianji shook his head, "The Life Source is the origin of all life, one of the most mysterious places in the world. No matter how high my cultivation, I can't obtain the water."

"If even you can't get it, then isn't there even less hope for me?" Chen Nan said.

"No, you can obtain it." Xuan Tianji waved his hand, placing Ye Yiyi into the space he had created, and said, "Once you've found the Water of Life, come to Tianlun Mountain to find me."

As he finished speaking, his figure vanished from the spot.

Chen Nan didn't understand what the old man meant. If even he couldn't get it, how could there be hope for him?

However, whether there was hope or not, even if it cost his life, he would strive with everything he had.

"Girls, Xinya, Mimi, go home first. While I'm not around, don't go out at night." After instructing the three, Chen Nan looked at Liu Tiantian and said, "Tiantian, take me to your home."

Liu Tiantian wisely nodded, "I'll listen to cousin."

Chen Nan grabbed Liu Tiantian and flew into the sky, heading eastward. Liu Tiantian said, "My parents are in Ningjiang City. Cousin, you fly faster than Qingqing does."

Chen Nan nodded and said, "With your talent, you'll be able to fly too one day."

"Do you think what that weird grandpa, your master, said is true? How could it be that I'm not born to my parents?" Liu Tiantian muttered.

Chen Nan patted her head, saying, "It's probably true. We'll find out when we ask."

"I hope it's both false and true, because if it's true, then we can find the Water of Life and save Sister Ye. She is such a good person; she got hurt saving us."

Saying this, Liu Tiantian couldn't help but cry.

The pain in Chen Nan's heart was a thousand times greater than hers; every mention of his junior sister felt like a knife piercing his heart.

That silly girl never thought of herself!

"Tiantian, where exactly are your parents?" Chen Nan changed the subject, drying his tears with Inner Strength.

Liu Tiantian said, "Across from Sister Yixuan's company. My father and Qingqing's dad are good friends, so I've known her since childhood."

Before long, Chen Nan landed in an uninhabited area.

With Liu Tiantian, the company's young lady, there was no need for notifications upon entering the building. They went directly upstairs to her father's office.

In the office, Liu Xin, Liu Tiantian's father, had a somewhat surprised expression.

The reason for his astonishment was naturally because of the young man Chen Nan. Could it be that this little girl had a boyfriend?

However, when Liu Tiantian, under Chen Nan's persuasion, indirectly asked about her origins, Liu Xin's expression turned serious. He looked at his daughter and defensively pointed to Chen Nan, saying, "Tiantian, who did you hear this from? And who exactly is he?"
