Goddess Rescue System

Looking at this woman who was looking at him with such a dark expression he couldn't but sigh.

Well.. she was really angry this time

that he started his cultivation without even telling her,

It was clear that if he didn't give her a good enough explanation, she'd probably stay mad for a while.

That might be the extent of what she could do, but…

Even with her calm demeanor, he could see the anxiety lurking in her beautiful blue eyes.

She was truly worried that he might hurt himself or ruin his future by rushing into cultivation recklessly.

In the span of just two years taking care of him she had grown really attached to him and didn't want to see him destroy his future.

Looking at the concern in her eyes he couldn't help but feel a bit warm.

He was not an emotionless person however, his heart, tempered by countless experiences, was rarely moved by fleeting emotions.

Yet, the genuine care in her eyes stirred a faint warmth within him—a rare feeling in his long, lonely existence.

No way, there were not many people he knew who cared about him.

Almost all of them were obsessed with his face and the rest of them with his power.

The few who had loved him for who he truly was… were all lost to him.

Quite a sad existence.

Now finding one who actually treated him as a family.

He did not want to make her sad.

"It's not that I didn't want to tell my sister but an old man came here just a few days after you went away and told me that I have a very rare Special Physique and if I wanted to be his disciple.

I obviously declined and he didn't insist but then he gave me a cultivation technique saying that I looked pleasing to his eyes so, he'll teach me how to cultivate.

I didn't know what to do; he looked very powerful and I also wanted to surprise my sister and become powerful enough to protect you."

He said some nonsense without blinking his eyes and his childish tone sounded so innocent and pure filled with sincerity that anyone would think that such a pure soul would not lie;

At least the woman in front of him seemed to believe his explanation.

Or did she?

Anyway, the cold expression on her face was no longer there.

He already knew he'd have to explain how his cultivation progressed so rapidly, as well as the origins of his cultivation technique.

After all, Sister Qing had been with him since he came to the sect and she was quite protective of him not wanting him to do something reckless that would harm his cultivation path.

So, at that time when he started his cultivation he had already thought of a reason.

Although it seemed cliche but people believed in such reasons as there were many powerful hidden experts in this world and plenty of them could come to this place unnoticed and if he really had some Special Physique then his Cultivation talent and future would be far greater than the most cultivators, so considering all these reasons, it wasn't odd for him to want him as a disciple...

As for the cultivation technique, he didn't think much; after all, looking at his cultivation base of Eighth Stage qi refining (After cultivating for a few days his cultivation increased) anyone could guess that he was cultivating a powerful cultivation technique,

Although the excuse that the other party gave such a precious cultivation technique to him just because he was good-looking and seemed pleasing to the eye sounded far-fetched it wasn't unbelievable either after all, who can guess the mind of a powerful cultivator?

Everyone has a different disposition.

Some are so righteous that they wouldn't harm a fly or step on an ant.

Others, however, might kill someone simply because they found them ugly or just for amusement.

So, it was still a valid excuse that some powerful hidden old man taught him how to cultivate giving him an otherworldly cultivation technique.

Hearing him although she believed him she still wanted to check,

After all,

The world is ruthless, and one can never fully trust the motives of a stranger.

To be sure, it was without any harm, she asked him to cultivate in front of her, and he obliged.

Sitting cross-legged, he activated the Chaos Devouring Technique, rapidly absorbing qi from the surroundings at an alarming rate.

Looking at the speed at which the surrounding qi was disappearing she was stunned and almost couldn't believe her eyes.

"What Kind of Cultivation Technique is this" She Muttered.

Even she couldn't guess the level of this cultivation technique and she was a Peak Divine Void Realm cultivator which was only below Supreme Saint Realm.

This had to be at least a Saint Grade or even an Emperor Grade technique.

For someone to give away such a precious technique without any reason, just how powerful must they be?

At first, she suspected it might be someone from the Sacred Ling Clan.

Unlike the sect elders who only knew that little Tian had a mysterious background and didn't know anything more than that, she knew that he belonged to a prestigious clan like the Sacred Ling Clan Furthermore he was the only child of the clan's head.

A powerhouse like the Ling Clan, with even Supreme Saint cultivators in their ranks—who are the strongest in the world now that Emperors haven't been seen in years—could easily send someone to this sect undetected.

However, she quickly dismissed that idea.

She knew the Ling Clan's strict rule: children, no matter how important, are sent away at a young age to survive on their own, without any aid from the clan.

Even for the patriarch's son, breaking this rule would lead to severe consequences.

Being from a Sacred Clan herself, she understood the unyielding value of such rules.

Not even the clan head would dare provide resources or assistance in defiance of them.

So, it couldn't be someone from the Ling Clan.

Perhaps it was a hidden expert from another Sacred Clan, a major sect, or even an unknown power.

And that leads to questions and worries.

What were his motives?

Did he simply give away such a precious technique because he found Tian'er pleasing to the eye?

No way?

She was very well aware of how destructive the little boy's face was; she was one of the victims.

So considering all these she wouldn't be surprised that even men were attracted to him...

Maybe an old perverted guy!!!

Huh!!

Then this cultivation technique might've...

Although for now, it looked safe, who knows for sure?

Thinking that an old powerful expert was eying her cute little brother, Han Qing'er's eyes turned cold.

Even though she had just known him for two months, he had become the most important person in her life and she would not allow anyone to harm him.

'It seems, I have to contact the Ling Clan's head,'

Since she couldn't find the problems with this technique she had to ask others.

Although the Ling Clan prohibits its members from contacting the clan while in training, this was an avoidable situation.

Rules are dead, people are alive.

He was far too important.

Looking at the little guy concentrating on his cultivation, her eyes turned soft.

'It seems his cultivation talent is quite monstrous.'

After all, he could even comprehend such a powerful technique.

Afterwards, she asked him how that person looked, to which he answered a bit vaguely, although he felt that she was too pressed on this matter.

But what could he say? Giving vague answers would feel dismissive, and lying was a slippery slope—one lie leads to countless more.

He didn't want to deceive someone who was genuinely concerned about him.

Explaining the system was out of the question; he wasn't that trusting of someone, who did not know him.

She liked the naive cute Ling Tian but he was no longer one and could not act like one.

So, he chose to sidestep the topic, subtly signalling that he wasn't ready to explain while also reassuring her that it wasn't something dangerous.

He was not planning to hide his changes, anyway.

It wouldn't take long for her to find out that he wasn't the same naive little guy, who used to call her, Sister Qing with an innocent smile.

He was a reincarnated person, who had lived for countless years.

Maybe by then, she would be wary and even afraid of him,

Maybe she might stop coming here to this place to accompany his lonely self and distance herself from him.

Who knows?

Although the thought made him somewhat uncomfortable,

But he would rather let her know everything now when they were not so close even if it were result in something he didn't want, rather than deceive her with something he wasn't.

Listening to his words, knowing that he was hiding something from her, she felt a bit uncomfortable but didn't ask further.

After checking that he was fine, she just chatted with him for a while, while staring at his good-looking face and those beautiful eyes that suddenly felt so strange.

The boy didn't explain, didn't pout, and just smiled wryly when she didn't take advantage of him as she usually did.

It was already night, it seemed like time passed a bit too fast.

"Sister Qing, What's your name!"

He asked her full name as she didn't tell her full name and only told him to call her "Sister Qing" since he first met her.

Nor did he ever ask so he was curious.

"Sister's name is Han Qing'er but you will still call me Sister Qing, Right?"

"Hm," She asked him though by her tone it didn't seem like she was even asking so he nodded his head Of course, he'll call her Sister Qing.

She told him to not be hasty in his cultivation and also to tell her before breaking through the foundation realm which he agreed,

After that, she went back to her place not before pinching his face and kissing his cheek again.

Despite his several attempts, he couldn't stop her as she let out a victorious smile and left.

She didn't want to think too much...

It's fine just the way it is.
