“Where am I?” When Lily opened her eyes again, she found that she was not on the bed but standing on a tall mountain.

The mountain towered into the clouds, and when she looked around, she saw that it was full of green trees and looked lush. Lily closed her eyes and took a deep breath of the mountain air, feeling extremely fresh.

At this moment, Lily suddenly heard someone shouting behind her, “Lily.”

This voice pulled Lily into reality. Lily did not know why she had suddenly appeared here. She looked in the direction of the voice and saw a white-haired old grandpa looking at her with a smile on his face.

Lily verified carefully. From her memory of the portrait in the ancestral hall earlier in the day, she discovered that it was the Old Ancestor of the Nicholas family.

“Old Ancestor!” Lily shouted.

“Lily is the most obedient.” Looking at Lily’s innocent expression, Romo could not help but smile.

“Old Ancestor, are you not dead yet? Otherwise, how is it possible that I can see you?” Lily asked curiously.

“Strictly speaking, I’m dead.” Romo did not know whether to laugh or cry when Lily asked this question.

“Then how is it possible that I can see you? Are you a ghost? Grandpa told me that people become ghosts after they die,” said Lily.

“You can think of it this way. People turn into ghosts after they die. Your grandfather is right.” Romo did not know how to explain this to the seven-year-old.

“Then are my parents watching me like you do, but why haven’t I seen them? Have they forgotten about me?” At the mention of her parents, Lily’s expression instantly became extremely sorrowful.

“No, it’s not like that. Not everyone has my ability. Your parents’ souls have already gone to another world. You can’t see them, but they can see you,” Romo explained quickly. “If you’re happy now, your parents will also be very happy in the other world.”

“Really?” In fact, her grandfather had often told her this before, and Lily had always been skeptical. But now that the Old Ancestor had also said this to her, Lily really believed him without a doubt.

“Of course, so Lily must study magical power and swordsmanship well and strive to become a great Sword Immortal as soon as possible. This way, your parents will be very happy.” Although Romo knew that there would be nothing left after a person died, he could not bear to see Lily so sad. Sometimes, it

was fine to tell a little white lie to a child.

“Alright, don’t worry, Old Ancestor. I’ll definitely study hard. But why am I seeing you today?” Upon hearing this, Lily nodded her head fiercely.

“Icame here today to teach you something,” Romo said as he stroked Lily’s hair.

Lily had long forgotten why she was here. She was already immersed in the excitement of seeing the Old Ancestor. Romo suddenly realized that Lily’s aptitude had increased again in the past few days.

Romo only knew that her aptitude was not bad, but he had not expected her to advance so quickly. It could be said that Lily was a rare genius.

At this moment, in the Nicholas palace, Xi Bolai had felt the same feeling. He quickly closed his eyes to sense carefully, and found that Lily’s aptitude had increased so rapidly that it had even surpassed that of the child who was fated with him.

Xi Bolai was deeply skeptical of himself. Could he have misjudged?

Lily had to be a talented and intelligent genius. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for her to learn magical power overnight from a zero background. This was the most reasonable explanation that Xi Bolai could think of.

Xi Bolai had wanted to get more information, so he closed his eyes again. He wanted to calculate Lily’s future development, but no matter how hard he tried, he could not figure it out. He did not know what had gone wrong.

Ever since he had entered the Nicholas family, the Heaven Prediction Spell which he was proud of had not been effective at all. Xi Bolai had begun to doubt his spell.

No matter what method Xi Bolai used, he could not understand the mystery behind it. Living in the Nicholas family palace was the most frustrating period of Xi Bolai’s life.

In fact, half of the reason why Lily was able to get to the novice level overnight was because of her talent and learning ability. The other half was because Romo had used a Hundredfold Cultivation Speed Talisman on her. Coupled with the 20% from the family clan’s formation, it was equivalent to a

cultivation speed of 120%.

One night was equivalent to 60 days of normal cultivation.

‘When Lily opened her eyes again, she found herself back in the bed of the Nicholas family. She looked up and saw the familiar ceiling again.

She sat up from the bed and carefully recalled the dream last night. She seemed to have seen the Old Ancestor. He had even said a lot to her. Then, she quickly revised the incantation from yesterday and felt the energy circulating in her body. She found it very amazing.

“Thave been initiated. I have been initiated.” Lily quickly jumped off the bed, ready to share the news with her grandfather.

Lily had just told her grandfather the news. “Look, Grandpa, I have been initiated. I can already feel the energy in my body.”

“Good Lily, Lily is amazing. Grandpa had told you that you would definitely become successful in the future.” Aaron was really happy for Lily, who had improved so quickly.

Then, after breakfast, the two of them came to the ancestral hall to pay respects to their Old Ancestor. When they entered the ancestral hall, they saw Norton, Zoro, and the others.

“Greetings, Family Head Grandpa. Greetings, Second Grandpa,” Lily quickly greeted politely.

Norton touched Lily’s head and suddenly sensed that she had already reached level-1 of the Physical Body Realm. He could not help but be a little surprised and let out a sigh. “Oh?”

Although Norton was a little surprised, it only took him a second to digest the news completely. “Go and offer incense quickly,” Norton then said.

Xi Bolai, who was not far away, watched all of this in disbelief. The corners of his mouth twitched. “Why is this family so strange? They have cultivated so quickly overnight, so why are they not surprised at all? It’s as if this should simply happen, and they all seem to be used to it.”

Xi Bolai was probably the most shocked person in the entire palace.

“Treally don’t understand this family. However, in this case, I’ll have to stay here for a while longer.” The longer he stayed here, the more Xi Bolai could sense the mystery of this family. He had nothing to do anyway, so he decided to stay here for a while longer as he intended to find out the secrets of this

family..
