The autumn night was a little cool.

Ning Tao clasped his hands behind his head and lay on the old man's recliner, looking up at the vast galaxy blankly.

Occasionally, a few fallen leaves break away from the branches and fall swayingly under the caress of the autumn wind.

At this time, a girl with a curvy figure, Mr. Hong's granddaughter, Xinhe, came over holding a thin blanket in her hands.

When he came to Ning Tao, he said softly: "Ning Tao, the autumn night is a bit cold, and it's easy to catch a cold."

He said and handed over the thin blanket in his hand.

Upon seeing this, Ning Tao reached out and took the thin blanket in his hand, smiled warmly at the girl, and covered himself with the thin blanket.

Then he continued to look up at the vast galaxy, as if there was something more attractive than the beautiful girl in front of him.

The girl stood aside, as if she had long been accustomed to Ning Tao's behavior.

He pulled a chair over and sat next to Ning Tao, looking up at the dazzling Milky Way.

After a while, he bit his lip and mustered up the courage to speak to break the deadlock.

"Ning Tao, is there really a Cowherd and a Weaver Girl in this galaxy?"

After hearing this, Ning Tao turned his head and glanced at the girl next to him, seeing her somewhat embarrassed expression, and couldn't help but smile.

"Maybe there is, maybe there isn't, I don't know." 1

The girl heard Ning Tao's answer. Although it didn't have any substantive content, it was better than the awkward appearance just now. 1

In this way, the two of them chatted about each other.

After a while, the girl couldn't help but ask in order to find a topic and understand the doubts in her heart.

"Ning Tao, where is your master? Why can you cultivate to the level of the innate realm at such a young age? I think you must be very powerful!"

Upon hearing this, Ning Tao turned to look at the girl calmly, and looked into the girl's eyes for a moment while trying to remain calm.

Until the young girl Xinhe said awkwardly: "I'm sorry, I know some hidden sects can't mention their own inheritance, and I didn't mean to do it. Don't be angry!"

Seeing Ning Tao's appearance, the girl thought she had asked something she shouldn't have asked, so she couldn't help but apologize.

Ning Tao couldn't help but smile after hearing this: "I'm not young, I'm older than your grandfather!" 1

The girl was a little happy when she heard this, thinking that Ning Tao was joking with her, so she couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle.

"Don't be kidding me. How can you be older than my grandpa like you? My grandpa just passed his seventieth birthday."

Ning Tao smiled and asked.

"Then look how old I am."

Hearing this, Xinhe raised her head and pointed at her chin. She raised her head and thought cutely for a moment. He smiled at Ning Tao and said.

"You must be no more than thirty!"

As he spoke, he waited expectantly for Ning Tao to speak, like a child waiting for praise from his parents.

Ning Tao smiled when he saw this, and thought that he had enough red luan tents on his body. A hundred years later, this girl would be nothing more than a handful of withered bones. It was better to put an end to her thoughts as soon as possible.

He couldn't help but said calmly.

"I am almost over 200 years old now. If calculated based on my life span, I should still be a teenager."

The girl didn't believe it and said, "If you are over two hundred years old now, according to what you said, you can live to be two thousand years old." But she was still very happy, because Ning Tao today seems to be much better than the idiot he used to be.

Seeing that the girl didn't believe it, Ning Tao shook his head lightly and smiled.

"Have you ever heard of the saying, 'Wander the North Sea in the morning and the sky is blue at dusk, and eat in the morning with the dew and clouds in the clouds'?"

The girl heard this and said doubtfully: "Of course I have heard of it, but doesn't this describe an immortal?"

Ning Tao continued to laugh after hearing this.

"If I said that I am the immortal you call me, would you believe it?"

The girl pursed her lips and shook her head when she heard this. She said angrily, "I don't believe it. You must be lying to me. Why would an immortal ask Grandpa to learn boxing?"

Ning Tao heard this and explained: "Immortal is just what you call me. We are just immortal cultivators. Becoming an immortal is our goal."

When the girl heard this, she actually had a guess in her mind, but at least she still didn't want to believe it.

Ning Tao smiled and asked, "Do you want to fly in the sky?"

When the girl heard this, she thought Ning Tao was still joking. Before she could speak, she saw Ning Tao reaching out and grabbing her wrist, and she couldn't help but blush a little.

Then he was very surprised to find that his body was out of control and slowly flew into the sky.

Coupled with the long skirt she specially put on today, she accompanied Ning Tao towards the full moon, looking as graceful as a flying fairy.

After a while, I was high in the sky. I looked at my feet. I closed my eyes nervously and didn't dare to look. My whole body was trembling.

When Ning Tao saw this, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Miss Xinhe, don't be afraid, I will protect you and you won't fall."

When the girl heard the words, her closed eyelashes fluttered slightly, and she slowly opened her eyes. After a while, her nervousness dissipated, and she was very happy. She looked at the thousands of lights and the vast Milky Way at her feet with a fresh look on her face.

At this time, Ning Tao waved his hand and released a pure white kitten, which made the girl very happy.

The kitten was held in the arms of the girl, and it opened its eyes in a daze. Seeing the scene in front of it, it couldn't help but become energetic, and its cunning eyes moved around, secretly thinking.

This master of my own is really powerful. In such a short time, he once again captured a beautiful girl, who was even more powerful than himself.

Thinking of this, I can't help but shake my head and sigh to myself that the master is the master, and I can't catch up with him even if I flatter him.

Then I felt a little happy, thinking that the other spiritual beasts under the master would never be as close as me and the master, and they would never know as many of his secrets.

Ning Tao saw this and knocked the white tiger on the head.

"I'm thinking about something, and I haven't returned to my true form yet."

Upon hearing this, the white tiger immediately broke away from the girl's arms, and with a flash of brilliance in the sky, he transformed into a giant tiger with four hurricanes under his feet. He roared majestically towards the moon, and lay down in front of Ning Tao and the girl out of thin air.

When Ning Tao saw this, he lifted Xin He up to Bai Hu's back with his magic power, waited for the two of them to get up, and with a low roar, he led the two of them towards the east.

The girl nervously lay on the back of the white tiger, looking at Ning Tao who was sitting cross-legged with his back to her, taking out a tea cup and drinking by herself, a glimmer of hope could not help but shine in her eyes, and she asked.

"Ning Tao, can I become the same person as you?"

When Ning Tao heard this, he stopped turning his back to the girl, and after a moment, he spoke.

"cannot!"

The light in the girl's eyes dimmed instantly when she heard this, and she continued to ask with the last glimmer of hope.

"Is it because I'm not qualified?"

After hearing this, Ning Tao drank the tea in the cup and explained.

"Yes and no?"

The girl heard this and continued to ask.

Ning Tao couldn't help but explain the theory of spiritual roots to the girl, just like when he first heard about it.

After a while, the girl asked again unwillingly.

"Is it really impossible to become an immortal cultivator without spiritual roots?"

Ning Tao shook his head when he heard this.

When the girl received Ning Tao's affirmative answer, the light in her eyes completely disappeared, and the scene couldn't help but feel a little awkward.

After Bai Hu heard the conversation between the two, he couldn't help but slow down.
