Upon seeing the Silver Bell Rope vanish, Chen Nan wasn't surprised, as his Phoenix Wing Mace could do the same.

"Yiyi, how do you feel?" Chen Nan asked.

A white light was swirling around Ye Yiyi's body. She slowly opened her eyes and pushed off the ground with her feet, leaping several meters high like an onion sprouting in dry land. Her right arm struck forward fiercely, and the Silver Bell Rope shot out instantly, the silver bell at its end jingling.

"Poof"

Remarkably, the length of the Silver Bell Rope could be freely adjusted.

What was originally more than a meter long extended over ten meters in an instant, its silver bell striking a large tree, shattering the trunk, and causing the massive tree, as thick as a barrel, to snap in two, with the upper half crashing to the ground.

Subsequently, Ye Yiyi flicked her hand to the side, maneuvering the Silver Bell Rope, which swept through the air like a blade slicing through iron.

The sound of breaking was incessant. Wherever the Silver Bell Rope passed, the tips of all the trees were severed in two, falling into the forest.

Ye Yiyi appeared as light as a swallow, her toes lightly tapping the ground. Her body flipped mid-air, and with a shake of her hand, the distant Silver Bell Rope coiled around a giant tree that required at least two people to embrace. With a forceful pull, the ground shook as the towering tree was uprooted.

Ye Yiyi continued her moves, attacking from afar, with the Silver Bell Rope extending up to a hundred meters. In close combat, it could be shortened to two or three meters, moving like a flickering cluster of white light, impenetrable and concealing her figure. Her speed was so fast that even Chen Nan was astounded.

Watching his junior sister perform these moves, each one was extremely ingenious, almost without any traceable flaws, and Chen Nan felt somewhat excited.

Despite her cultivation increasing while poisoned, Ye Yiyi faced many obstacles. But this time, she merged with the Silver Bell Rope, nurtured by the white Divine Light, restoring her weakened body to its former state. Her cultivation broke through several barriers, reaching a level comparable to Chen Nan's and stabilizing at the Thorough Earth Seventh Layer Heaven.

If it were in the past, Chen Nan would need Dragon Transformation to achieve Thorough Earth Seventh Layer Heaven power. However, after the chaotic battle at Qianyuan Holy Land, during those days of life-and-death struggle, his cultivation broke two layers, reaching Thorough Earth Seventh Layer Heaven.

With Dragon Transformation, he could reach Earth Penetrating Nine Heavens cultivation.

"Darling, let me test my moves with you." Chen Nan picked up the Phoenix Wing Mace and leapt toward his junior sister.

Being called "darling" by Chen Nan made Ye Yiyi slightly embarrassed, but she felt incredibly delighted. She swung the Silver Bell Rope to counter Chen Nan's moves, laughing, "Great, I haven't practiced for so long, I almost forgot how to strike."

The Silver Bell Rope danced like a White Silk Ribbon in her hand, accompanied by her white attire, she floated in the air like a fairy dancing across Nine Heavens, graceful and agile.

The two exchanged moves, each defending against the other.

Unlike ordinary battles, their moves were filled with tenderness and affection. Though they countered each other, they were in perfect harmony. At this moment, if confronted by enemies, they could join forces seamlessly, launching a swift attack on an adversary while defending each other's weaknesses.

The eighteen Tang Techniques performed by Chen Nan, combined with Ye Yiyi's Silver Bell Rope moves, seemed naturally complementary, covering the gaps in each other's techniques completely.

The silver bell and Chen Nan's Phoenix Wing Mace collided repeatedly, creating the sound of clashing, accompanied by the crisp and melodious bell sound.

Before long, a beam of white light suddenly surged, revealing Xuan Tianji standing between them: "This Silver Bell Rope and Phoenix Wing Mace combination, capable of both offense and defense, could confront thousands of soldiers. You two have a tacit understanding that has reached a significant level."

Chen Nan paused and asked, "And then?"

"What 'and then'? Without improving your realm, this is as far as it goes," Xuan Tianji glanced at them and, a bit annoyed, said, "It's late, don't practice anymore. I was just dozing off and got woken up by you two."

Chen Nan landed on the ground, saying, "I thought you had some pointers, but turns out it's all nonsense."

The old man glared, "You scoundrel, say another word and see what happens!"

Chen Nan shut his mouth obediently, then posed with the Phoenix Wing Mace and said, "By the way, old man, do you know this Phoenix Wing Mace?"

Xuan Tianji was silent for a moment before nodding.

Chen Nan quickly asked, "Who used this mace before? I feel it's far from simple on the surface."

"Who used it isn't important anymore; everything has become fleeting," Xuan Tianji sighed as he glanced at the sky, then reached out towards Chen Nan, saying, "It's done, hand it over."

Chen Nan was baffled, "Hand over what?"

"Don't feign ignorance with me, of course, it's the God Beating Whip," Xuan Tianji said, irritated.

Chen Nan immediately covered his storage ring, guarding against the old man, "Didn't Master Abstinence already give it to me? Why do you want it back? I'm not giving it, absolutely not, even if I'm beaten to death!"

"You have no choice but to give it, letting you hold onto such a treasure is simply a waste!" Xuan Tianji gestured, and the ring on Chen Nan's finger flashed a glow as it was forcibly opened, and the God Beating Whip was drawn out into his hand.

"Damn..."

Chen Nan was extremely reluctant, but there was no helping it, the old man was too powerful.

Xuan Tianji chuckled sinisterly, then looked at Chen Nan with seriousness and asked, "By the way, how is your senior sister?"

When the topic turned to his senior sister, Yafeng, Chen Nan's curiosity was piqued. He gazed at the old man with a mischievous grin, "Be honest, old man, are you really just master and disciple?"

Xuan Tianji glared, "Scoundrel, how dare you speak like that!"

Chen Nan grinned even more mischievously, seemingly sensing the old man's guilt, and teased, "You guys have something going on, don't you?"

"Watch your tongue!"

The old man's face indeed turned cold.

In front of Chen Nan, he had never been so solemn. After a moment, he said, "Never mention this again, or you'll not be my disciple!"

With that, the old man turned and left.

Chen Nan felt quite bewildered, as this kind of joke he often made in the past was met with laughter and banter. Yet, talking about the senior sister seemed to ignite the old man's fury unexpectedly.

While Chen Nan was musing, Ye Yiyi asked, "When did we have a senior sister?"

"We've always had one, in the Tao Realm, but the old man never mentioned it before," Chen Nan explained, his words accompanied by the holding of his junior sister's hand, breathing in the fresh air, as they strolled romantically at the mountaintop.

Ye Yiyi nodded, "I see."

The two talked while walking, and after a while, Chen Nan said, "I'm planning to visit Ninghai City tomorrow, would you like to join me?"
