"It's too late...I should have issued the mission when my energy was at its first low..."

"This is my mistake. I just took you to this world. The data shows that this world is not very strong. In the Golden Core stage, you should be considered a little master."

"But in the battle we encountered that day, there were even more than a dozen people with Golden Immortal cultivation. This is obviously because my data is wrong. As a system, ensuring the life of the host is the first principle, isn't it?"

"No, doesn't the system force the host to perform tasks? You should do the same. As long as you don't leave, I can do anything."

"That's another system, you know, I'm different from them."

"...."

Xu Ran sat down on the ground weakly, his eyes dull.

"If love lasts for a long time, how can we live together day and night?"

"Xu Ran, I am a sect development system. I was originally supposed to help you become the leader of the strongest sect in the world.

Now there is no chance. I hope you can establish a small sect in the future to prove that I have been in this world. There is no need to compete for the first place in the world, just live well.

Remember, the apprentice must only accept seven, you know, I like the number seven."

This was the last thing the system said to Xu Ran. No matter how Xu Ran called after that, there was no response.

After Xu Ran disappeared from the system, he spent several years in a state of confusion.

It's like a man with a happy family and career who loses everything about himself in an instant. The confusion and emptiness can shatter a person's mind in an instant.

For such a long time, his cultivation has been unable to break through at the peak of the divine transformation stage. After all, his qualifications are not good.

He realized that without the help of the system, he might not be able to become an immortal for the rest of his life. Thinking of the last words of the system, he decided to establish a sect here, and the sect was called the System Sect.

And this mountain gate with spiritual veins cultivated by him and the system is called System Mountain.

Here, their only ideal is placed.

…………

After the system disappeared, he successively accepted six disciples over the years. Although each disciple had different personalities and preferences, they all had one thing in common, they were all cautious.

When they first get started, Xu Ran will teach them that the world of cultivation is dangerous.

When the system was still there, Xu Ran once asked it to make a picture stone of the scene he saw that day. Using it, he could directly pull people into an illusory world and experience the horrific scene of that day in person.

The system was originally created so that one day when I couldn't bear the loneliness and wanted to go out for a wander, I could relive the scene at that time. Now it is used as a teaching material for my apprentices.

The terrifying scenes perfectly reproduced by the photo stone, coupled with years of teaching, the apprentices have inherited his cautious character very well.

…………

The girl was discovered by Xu Ran in the morning. At that time, he was in retreat and suddenly wanted to move around on a whim.

Her appearance was unbelievable. The entire mountain range had been blocked by a large formation arranged by the system. The system said that even an immortal would not be able to easily break the formation.

But it was too strange for such a little girl with no cultivation to appear in front of Xu Ran so suddenly, and Xu Ran was at a loss for a moment.

The girl didn't seem to know how she suddenly appeared here. She was so embarrassed that she looked around, her thin body trembling slightly.

Xu Ran thought for a moment and decided to leave the girl.

Mind your own business.

Although it is cruel, it is also the reason why he has lived for so long.

Suddenly she breathed a sigh of relief, and when Xu Ran was about to turn around and leave, she smiled and ran towards him.

This smile is as if I have met you there...

Her smile is so pure that it seems to touch one's soul just by looking at it.

Xu Ran has been practicing for more than two thousand years, and the only time he couldn't control his emotions was when the system left. The system's departure made him feel like he was the only one left in this strange world, lonely and desperate.

Seeing the girl's smile, he couldn't help but feel an impulse in his heart. He wanted to protect this smile. He couldn't explain why this happened.

This feeling is like those who don’t have a sister. Suddenly one day, their parents bring a cute girl home and say that this is your sister.

Xu Ran was a sister-controller in his previous life, but unfortunately he never had a sister. He has always felt sorry for this, as life without a sister is unsatisfactory.

The appearance of the girl seems to be to make up for his regret. She seems to have an aura of weakness in her body, which makes people involuntarily develop a desire for protection.

The girl ran up to him, biting her lovely lower lip, staring at her big watery eyes, with some hesitation on her face, as if she wanted to say something, but didn't know how to say it.

Xu Ran knelt down, stretched out his hand, gently stroked her black and soft hair, and smiled softly: "What's your name?"

She thought for a while and replied with some uncertainty: "Qi?"

"Seven"? The system said that its favorite number was "seven", and said it hoped he would accept seven disciples, but it was just one short.

Xu Ran suddenly hesitated. After thousands of years, he no longer felt that he was a protagonist. This specific protagonist aura was still too outrageous in reality.

Suddenly, the powerful intuition in his divine transformation stage stimulated him like needle pricks.

Xu Ranruo glanced at the girl in front of him with emotion.

It's like it's fate.

He secretly checked the Dao Seal again and carefully checked it tens of thousands of times.

"It's a very nice name. You will be my last disciple from now on. Well, you happen to be the seventh disciple."

Xu Ran took the little girl's hand and walked towards the mountain gate.
