Chapter 1060 - 18: Want to See You

True Monarch Hanshan soon came out to entertain the guests.

Tianmiao thought these two people were friends of his master, but unexpectedly, the man was his master’s nephew, and the gentle woman named Xu Xian was Bai Suzhen’s wife.

"This disciple of Uncle has great potential." Bai Suzhen said with her usual cold expression, showing no emotion, "Compared to that disciple named Yi Lan, one is in the sky, the other is underground."

"You could have left out the last part." True Monarch Hanshan said helplessly. His nephew was good in every way, except for his sharp tongue. If you’re going to praise someone, just praise them, there’s no need to disparage others. That arrogant nature hasn’t changed.

"Little radish, this is your meeting gift." Bai Suzhen looked at Tianmiao and took out a sword, initially intending to hand it to Tianmiao, but realizing that this sword was much taller than Tianmiao himself, he hesitated for a moment and handed the Treasure Sword to True Monarch Hanshan instead.

Xu Xian stifled a laugh on the side and also took out something, handing it to Tianmiao: "Little Tianmiao, this ribbon is a Magic Treasure I refined during my leisure time, for your self-defense. I’m currently learning to refine auspicious clouds; once I’ve mastered it, I’ll give you one – a pink auspicious cloud so you can fly on it yourself."

Tianmiao accepted the ribbon that Xu Xian handed over and bowed to Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen: "Thank you both for the gifts."

"Good girl." Xu Xian smiled. If he had another daughter, he would also want to raise her chubby and fair, how lovely she would be.

"Little Tianmiao, go play by yourself and study how to use the ribbon. I’ll keep this Treasure Sword for you for the time being." True Monarch Hanshan said to Tianmiao with a smile.

Tianmiao nodded, greeted Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen, and then left.

After Tianmiao went out, Xu Xian said: "Uncle, where did you find this child? She’s so adorable."

"Great potential." Bai Suzhen added.

Xu Xian glanced at Bai Suzhen; his husband was always taciturn, yet this was the first time he heard such straightforward praise, and it was already the second time. This demonstrates the child’s indeed astounding potential.

"Found in a valley, at that time she was cultivating by herself, hadn’t yet taken human form. This child is indeed very good, very good. Well-behaved and sensible." True Monarch Hanshan spoke of Tianmiao with only satisfaction, great satisfaction.

"Unlimited possibilities. You should take good care of her." Bai Suzhen said.

True Monarch Hanshan nodded, deeply agreeing.

"Uncle, has anything happened in the West recently?" Xu Xian asked.

"Tathagata came by last time, but I’m not clear on the specifics. Shouldn’t you know better?" True Monarch Hanshan asked. Xu Xian, being a drop of Tathagata’s heart’s blood and, in a sense, Tathagata’s daughter, if something were up, he should have informed her.

"No, he doesn’t tell me, he only said the time hasn’t come yet and that the heavenly secrets can’t be revealed." Xu Xian shrugged, helplessly.

"Since he said so, there’s no need to force it. When the time is right, all will become clear." True Monarch Hanshan replied calmly, "Your master came over a few days ago, and the Jade Emperor sought him out, perhaps it’s related to this matter. But nothing specific was mentioned."

"Erlang God?" Bai Suzhen frowned and snorted, "Did he complain about me? Calling me a wicked disciple?"

"You knew?" True Monarch Hanshan laughed.

"When does he visit you without badmouthing me?" Bai Suzhen snorted again, "Childish!"

Xu Xian stifled another laugh. His husband was also quite childish in his attitude towards Erlang God.

The three chatted for a while longer, then Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen prepared to leave.
