A ten-thousand-fold return, and I, in my old age, will become a lapdog.

Chapter 2 Junior Sister Dugu Ling

On the outer terrace of the sect's secret chamber in the back mountain, Xu Xiao handed over a small porcelain bottle with a kind smile.

Upon seeing this, Dugu Ling frowned slightly and said, "Senior brother, this was specially left by Master for you to prolong your life."

"Senior brother, let's not give up on ourselves. After taking the Longevity Pill, you will have another fifty years of life. In a while, I will find you a beautiful wife, and you can live a peaceful and comfortable life in the sect."

Dugu Ling looked at Xu Xiao, who was old and frail with white hair, and sighed in her heart.

Looking back, my senior brother was incredibly handsome in his youth, and I almost lost my composure and fell for him.

I never imagined that after a thousand years, my senior brother would have... grown so old...

Sigh, thinking about this, Dugu Ling still felt a little sad.

My senior, such a handsome guy, has also reached the end of his life...

Seeing this, Xu Xiao put the Longevity Pill back into his spatial storage.

Sure enough, sending things randomly is unreasonable, and the system won't recognize it.

Looking at Dugu Ling's delicate and beautiful face, he sighed and laughed, "Junior sister, I'm already so old, why would I want to find a wife... Isn't that just ruining other people's young girls?"

Dugu Ling comforted him with a smile, "So what if you're old? Senior Brother was so handsome before, and even though you're older now, you still have some of the charm you had back then."

"Moreover, you are my senior brother, the sect leader of the Misty Sect, and also the disciple of the Supreme Elder. The young ladies of those great families are eager to marry you and form a bond with my Misty Sect!"

"Don't worry, senior brother. Your parents took me in back in the village. I won't let them die out."

Xu Xiao smiled and nodded.

Although Dugu Ling was exceptionally talented and became the sect leader, he never forgot the kindness his family had shown him back then.

She is a good girl who knows how to be grateful.

"Come on, senior brother, I'll take you back to the outer mountain," Dugu Ling said with a smile.

Piaomiao Peak has two peaks, namely the outer mountain and the inner mountain.

The inner mountain is relatively small, but it is an important place within the sect, where all the inner sect elders and disciples reside.

The outer mountain is larger and is where the outer sect elders and disciples reside.

A month ago, Xu Xiao failed his tribulation, his cultivation level dropped back to the first level of Foundation Establishment, and he lost the ability to fly on a sword.

Therefore, the rugged terrain of the inner mountain was no longer suitable for him to live in, so he simply moved to a secluded place in the outer mountain to retire.

Dugu Ling had already summoned her flying sword, which floated in front of her. She jumped up first and said, "Senior brother, come on up quickly."

Xu Xiao blinked.

His frail body moved forward with small, shuffling steps. Having lost his cane, he now walked with a limp.

"Well... junior sister... I'm too old, I can't jump up like that anymore..."

Arriving at the flying sword, which was floating at waist height, he had no way to jump onto it.

Although he was at the first level of Foundation Establishment, he still possessed magical power within him.

But I'm too old and can't muster the strength anymore!

"Sigh... Senior brother, let me help you."

Seeing this, Dugu Ling felt a pang of sadness. "Senior brother, it's so pitiful to grow old..."

She came down and hugged Xu Xiao, and then the two of them landed on the flying sword together.

On the flying sword, Xu Xiao, unable to stand steadily, moved his arms.

"Senior brother, don't move!"

Dugu Ling pulled Xu Xiao's hand down to her waist, saying, "Just grab my waist."

Xu Xiao smiled awkwardly and said, "Yes... Junior Sister, I'm getting old, and my hands and feet are a bit out of control. I'm sorry."

He sighed inwardly.

When the two were young, although they didn't take the final step, they did everything else they were supposed to do.

Just like a sweet young couple.

Unexpectedly, on their wedding night, Ji Xue arrived just in time and saved Dugu Ling ahead of schedule.

Xu Xiao was furious.

The thought of this made Xu Xiao feel a tightness in his chest, lamenting the unfairness of life.

My beautiful wife is gone just like that...

The two flew on their swords, taking in the beautiful scenery of the mountains inside and outside Misty Peak below.

Surrounded by clouds and mist, towering mountains and steep ridges.

Misty Peak is located in the eastern part of Panlong Continent, near the Ten Thousand Mountains, and is the oldest cultivation sect in the area.

"Senior brother, don't stand so close..."

Although Dugu Ling felt somewhat uncomfortable, she did not resist.

In her entire life, she only had a good relationship with her senior brother.

She hadn't even held hands with any other men; she actually still liked her senior brother.

Of course, it was the younger senior.

Now that her senior brother is older, she is no longer as impulsive as she used to be.

Xu Xiao stood behind Dugu Ling, holding her tightly, his heart pounding with fear. "Junior sister... slow down... I'm too old for this kind of shock!"

Although Dugu Ling's flying sword flew steadily, the place was too high, and even the elderly Xu Xiao was somewhat afraid of heights.

Since his failure in the tribulation and his fall to the first level of Foundation Establishment, his appearance has aged terribly.

Now, even some age-related diseases are emerging.

Fortunately, he doesn't have Alzheimer's disease, otherwise the system would have come for nothing.

The flying sword landed on a mountainside somewhere outside the mountains, at a secluded house and courtyard, which is Xu Xiao's current residence.

There is a road connecting to the outer main hall, which is quite convenient for him in his old age.

Dugu Ling picked Xu Xiao up and looked at him, who was still somewhat shaken. She felt a pang of sadness.

"Senior brother... don't worry, I'll find a good girl to take care of you for the last fifty years."

Dugu Ling stepped forward and hugged her former lover, her senior brother.

The other person's skin was old and withered, but she didn't care; this was her family.

Xu Xiao sighed, "Junior sister, you go ahead and manage the sect well. I can manage on my own."

"Now that you are the master of a sect, you must strengthen your resolve. Birth, old age, sickness, and death are just ordinary things."

Dugu Ling released Xu Xiao, took a deep breath, and nodded.

"Senior brother, here are one hundred high-grade spirit stones. Keep them; they should be enough for your expenses for the next fifty years."

Dugu Ling took out a small bag from her bosom and handed it to Xu Xiao, saying, "I will let you know as soon as I find a good girl."

"Senior brother, just wait for my good news!"

Xu Xiao took the bulging bag from the other party, and his expression immediately lit up.

Okay, this is another way to return the system's initial investment!

"Junior sister, thank you very much."

There was no refusal; this was exactly what he needed right now.

When he becomes successful in the future, he will naturally repay the other party a thousandfold or ten thousandfold.

"Senior brother, there are still many important matters in the sect that I need to attend to, so I won't stay any longer."

"Senior brother, take care!"

After saying that, Dugu Ling, with a complicated look in her eyes, flew away from the mountainside on her sword.

The outer disciples who were climbing the mountain nearby looked at Dugu Ling soaring into the air with awe in their eyes.

"It's Sect Leader Dugu! I know! The Sect Leader must have come to visit Elder Xu!"
