### Chapter 593: “Bai Feng, no, Lord Bai Feng, Brother Bai Feng, spare me!”
“How strange.”
Bai Feng stared at Luo Qianqian’s ‘check-up’ report, scratching his head. According to her, she was a split personality of the Hundred Faced Saintess, but judging from the tests, Luo Qianqian was a complete, independent individual. In other words, she was a whole person.
“Teacher, what’s wrong with me?” Luo Qianqian asked nervously from the side.
“You’re very healthy, almost unhealthily so.”
Luo Qianqian: “?”
Bai Feng, ignoring her bewildered expression, mulled over his thoughts.
One thing was for sure: Luo Qianqian wasn’t a split personality or a puppet, but a complete person, and she bore no markings of Qian Mian. In that regard, the Demon Woman had succeeded.
Moreover, Luo Qianqian only had memories from before she was sold to the Demon Path, which is why she was sent to the Heavenly Sword Sect to cultivate.
And most importantly—the Demon Woman had bestowed the name Luo Qianqian upon her, meaning she had relinquished that identity.
‘This means Luo Qianqian and the Demon Woman could be considered two different individuals, right?’
Bai Feng went deep into thought. Strictly speaking, Luo Qianqian was the Demon Woman, but her case was quite special. She was no longer a split personality, but a complete individual—like the childhood version of Luo Qianqian had time-traveled to the present.
Also, the Demon Woman had been severing ties with Luo Qianqian; for instance, she abandoned the name ‘Luo Qianqian,’ turning her into a complete person and completely cutting off their connection. Even her d*ath might have had something to do with Luo Qianqian.
Remembering the Demon Woman’s last words about her experiences and grievances, perhaps Luo Qianqian still carried her innermost wishes.
And the Demon Woman had nearly succeeded. If he hadn’t received intel from the Incarnation of the Tao about the Demon Woman’s missing memories and discovered Luo Qianqian’s peculiarity, no one would have realized that the latter was a split personality of the former.
‘This Demon Woman is quite the thinker.’
Bai Feng rubbed his forehead. In this situation, he certainly wouldn’t treat Luo Qianqian like a mere extension of the Demon Woman; after all, Luo Qianqian had been severed from her.
“Teacher?”
He looked down at the slightly confused and tense Luo Qianqian. After a while, he sighed—clearly, the Demon Woman knew him well enough to realize he wouldn’t just get rid of Luo Qianqian or kick her out, which was probably why she sent Luo Qianqian to the Heavenly Sword Sect and had her join the Array Peak.
‘Consider this payment for all the times you’ve helped me.’
Bai Feng reached out and ruffled Luo Qianqian’s little head, not planning to erase the Demon Woman’s wish.
“Alright, just be yourself from now on.”
“You’re not kicking me out?” Luo Qianqian asked instinctively.
“Why would I?”
“Because I am…”
Bai Feng ruffled her head again: “You are Luo Qianqian, a disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect’s Array Peak, my student.”
Luo Qianqian looked up slightly, her face showing a hint of surprise, then a smile blossomed, and she nodded vigorously: “Yes, Teacher!”
“Um, Teacher…” she clasped her hands together, poking her index fingers at each other while secretly looking at Bai Feng, “Can I learn from Sister Shui Xi Yu? I want to make an array that can change the world.”
Bai Feng chuckled, giving her head another gentle rub: “That’s quite difficult, so you better be mentally prepared.”
“Mm!” Luo Qianqian nodded, “Thank you, Teacher!”
Watching her cheerful expression, Bai Feng sighed internally—if the Demon Woman hadn’t been sold to the Demon Path by her fixated cult parents, maybe she would have been just like Luo Qianqian?

Inside the Secret Realm.
A mosquito perched on a tree branch, its size like a fist. With a black and white patterned body splashed with streaks of red, its swollen abdomen hinted at freshly consumed bl**d, showing it had just gorged itself.
Suddenly, the mosquito seemed to sense something and shot up from the branch with a buzzing whir, darting hundreds of meters away in the blink of an eye. But alas, its speed was no match for lightning.
In a flash, a thunderclap rolled through, and the gigantic, terrifying mosquito was instantly charred black, falling silently to the ground.
The next second, the dead mosquito suddenly ignited, burning until nothing but ashes remained.
“Zuo Qiu, well done.”
Bai Feng stepped out from under the tree, currently tidying up the layout left by the immortal. As the Incarnation of the Tao had mentioned earlier, the remaining traps were just minor ones, easily handled.
For instance, this time it was a mosquito that had swallowed a drop of immortal bl**d; after some effort in tracking it down, a few zaps by Zuo Qiu had finished the job.
Zuo Qiu quickly walked over and leaned her head in closer.
“…”
Bai Feng rubbed her head, but she seemed a bit unsatisfied, inching her face closer, so he used his other hand to ruffle her little face, causing the tail she had (how did that even get there?) to whip back and forth excitedly.
“Master, it feels like we haven’t gone for a walk together in ages,” she said, gazing up at Bai Feng with bright eyes.
“Tonight we’ll go for a walk.” Bai Feng realized Zuo Qiu’s knack for this was never going to change.
“Thank you, Master!” Her tone instantly grew more excited, her tail flicking even faster. “I’ll be sure to wear the collar and leash.”

“…Let’s head back first.”
Bai Feng ruffled her head once more before turning to leave, and Zuo Qiu hurried to keep up.
Ever since he dealt with the Immortal Corpse and Qian Mian, he no longer felt rushed to increase his cultivation, and life had become somewhat leisurely.
If there were any remaining issues, it was the Child of Destiny, whose breakthrough to the Merging Stage caused quite a stir. Luckily, not many were causing trouble.
After all, the Eastern Continent was thoroughly cleaned up by Shui Xi Yu, the Southern Region had faced a considerable loss in battles between the alliance and the big demons due to Ling Feng and Lin Yan, and the Western Region had certainly been through enough turmoil with the Demon Path and the Immortal Corps. The Central Continent had a holy place… no, more accurately, the Holy Son of Tai Chu—if any Child of Destiny dared to cause trouble, the Holy Son would be at their doorstep within three days.
As for the Northern Region…
With the Heavenly Sword Sect around, not many Children of Destiny had the guts to stir up trouble. Plus, Bai Feng had reached an agreement with the Incarnation of the Tao; his grudge value had been cleared, but correspondingly, if an evil Child of Destiny with no regard for life appeared, he’d have to figure out a way to eliminate them.
【Ding, a nearby Child of Destiny was defeated by another Child of Destiny, fostering resentment and turning to the dark side. They are currently capturing innocent cultivators and mortals for training. The direction is marked for you, go forth, fishy Bai Feng beast.】
Bai Feng: “…”
You really want a spanking, don’t you?
Moments later.
“Why aren’t you going after the Child of Destiny and instead coming to find me?” the Incarnation of the Tao said, looking a bit panicked as Bai Feng strolled over.
“Don’t worry, I sent Zuo Qiu ahead with the ring, along with Yu Mo and Chu Chu for backup. I can just teach you a lesson en route!”
“I was wrong, I won’t do it again.”
“So, do you know what to call me now?”
Bai Feng pinned the Incarnation of the Tao down, his hand hovering over her behind.
“Bai Feng, no, Lord Bai Feng, Brother Bai Feng, spare me!” she cried out, struggling.
He looked at this once-pure Incarnation of the Tao, dismissing a scoff: “Heh, didn’t you say pretty much the same thing last time?”
“Then… Bai Feng Daddy?”
Bai Feng: “…?”
Wait, how shameless can an Incarnation of the Tao get? It felt like this Incarnation was getting more and more free-spirited!
