Chen Xiao was blocked by Xi Yunting's back and couldn't see the person outside the door. But based on just a few words, he guessed that the person was Xi Yunting's senior brother, Liu Shaoguang, who was in charge of the finances of Zhongxuan Sect.

His heart was beating fast, but he tried to calm down, walked around Xi Yunting gently, and greeted Liu Shaoguang politely.

"Chen Xiao pays respect to Master Liu."

Liu Shaoguang glanced at Chen Xiao, and the hidden exploration and scrutiny were so deep that Chen Xiao didn't even notice.

After just a moment, Liu Shaoguang nodded calmly: "Brother Chen is indeed handsome and handsome, no wonder my junior brother caught his eye."

As he said this, he glanced at Xi Yunting.

Chen Xiao was deceived by his performance, and still stood there stupidly, letting the senior brother criticize him, fearing that his performance would not be good and would bring discredit to Xi Yunting.

But he didn't know that his glance made Xi Yunting feel embarrassed and annoyed. Liu Shaoguang was teasing him for being fascinated by beauty!

Xi Yunting's chest heaved, he felt suffocated with anger, and he glared at his disrespectful senior brother to warn him that if he dared to talk nonsense again, he would be a traitor!

Liu Shaoguang coughed lightly, put on a friendly face, and said soothingly: "It's been a hard journey, Brother Chen, I shouldn't have come to disturb your rest at this time, I'm really in a hurry, please don't blame me."

Chen Xiao greeted him politely and said, "Master Liu, you are too kind. There is no blame. I am only grateful for your concern for me."

Seeing that his junior brother was still angry, Liu Shaoguang lowered his posture again, hoping to ask for his understanding, and said, "It's strange to call you Immortal Master, just call me Senior Brother. With your relationship with Yun Ting, just follow his way of addressing me."

Liu Shaoguang pointed out the relationship between them directly and in a kind manner, which made Chen Xiao, who had been worried, feel relieved.

After all, he was thin-skinned, and his face turned slightly red. He couldn't hide his embarrassment and a little surprise, and he called out "Senior Brother" obediently.

This made Liu Shaoguang, who originally had no feelings for him and only maintained a superficial attitude, actually feel some affection for him, and he changed his way of addressing him to call him by his name.

At least he is well-behaved, docile and not annoying.

People with good looks are naturally easy to gain favor, and Liu Shaoguang is very clear about this truth.

The first impression was not bad. As long as there were no major problems and he could get along harmoniously with his junior brother, as a senior brother, there was nothing to complain about.

Thinking about these things rationally and almost coldly, Liu Shaoguang chatted with Chen Xiao with a smile.

He was unaware that Liu Shaoguang had exposed all his main interpersonal relationships with just a few words, and he was particularly careful to sell out all the background of the newly established Dongyu Sect.

But Chen Xiao was still thinking with tears of gratitude that it was great that the first person he met after coming here was someone as easy to get along with as Liu Shaoguang.

Xi Yunting, who was standing beside him, had a subtle expression. He didn't know whether he should be angry with his senior brother, or laugh at Xiaodi's confused and cute look.

Liu Shaoguang was like a fox who had successfully stolen a chicken. His eyes narrowed with laughter. Only silly children are lovable.

After accepting the gift from Chen Xiao and stuffing a storage bag into his hand, he left with satisfaction.

Chen Xiao happily saw him off to the door and welcomed him to visit next time.

After Liu Shaoguang disappeared, Chen Xiao turned around and found Xi Yunting's strange expression that seemed to be both angry and smiling.

"What's wrong?" Chen Xiao's heart was suddenly in suspense.

Xi Yunting pondered for a while, but no words could express his complicated thoughts clearly. Every time at this time, he hated his poor speaking skills.

Finally, he could only sigh, hugged Chen Xiao into his arms, and said to him solemnly: "When I'm not around, stay away from Senior Brother. It's best to avoid him when you see him!"

Chen Xiao was extremely puzzled, "Why? Your senior brother is a very nice person." This silly kid is even giving out nice guys cards.

Xi Yunting looked at him worriedly and said, "Big Brother is too thoughtful. If you can't see through his intentions, you will suffer losses."

Chen Xiao was half-believing and half-doubting. He casually opened the storage bag and took a look. He was so surprised that he shouted, "Oh my god! There are so many spirit stones!!"

Chen Xiao was frightened by Liu Shaoguang's generosity. Only after Xi Yunting emphasized it again and again did Chen Xiao raise Liu Shaoguang's danger level a little.

The fact that he did not succumb to the charm of the golden thigh was a result of his strong self-control.

After being ridiculed by Liu Shaoguang, Xi Yunting decided to go out for a walk and hunt some prey for Chen Xiao for dinner that day.

Chen Xiao had long heard of the rich resources of the back mountain, especially the tea trees that produced rock tea, and was eager to try and see them for himself.

The back of Youkun Mountain is out of the safety zone of Chongxuan Sect. From here, wild animals begin to increase. Hares, pheasants, wild boars, foxes and wolves can be seen everywhere. In the deeper part, there are brown bears, mountain leopards, tigers and other fierce beasts.

When disciples of the Chongxuan Sect reach the high-level stage, that is, the body refining stage, they can enter Youkun Mountain for training.

With Chen Xiao's current skills, it is no problem for him to get in and out of here.

However, the place Xi Yunting was going to was a bit dangerous for those below the Foundation Establishment Stage, which made this area sparsely populated and very primitive.

Except for spring, the wind in Chongxuan Sect is particularly strong, and it is even worse in the back mountain. The whistling sound is so sharp that it gives people a headache.

Chen Xiao and Xi Yunting held hands and walked against the wind, approaching the steep and dangerous cliff.

The rocks here have been badly weathered. I don't know if it's because the wind is too strong, but the rocks on this cliff are very sharp, like rugged reefs washed by waves.

Chen Xiao covered his hair that was messed up by the wind, and felt that the scene in front of him was very rare. It could be said that the wind here was fierce, but there was a strong spiritual energy rushing up from the ground, causing the plants on this cliff to grow particularly vibrantly.

Some agile mountain goats, regardless of danger, climbed to a height of a hundred meters just to have a bite of the delicious magical grass.

The stone steps are so narrow that one foot can't even stand on them, but the mountain goats walk on them as if they were walking on flat ground, as if they were in their own back garden, feeling comfortable and relaxed.

The fierce winds and dangerous terrain make it rare for large carnivores to set foot here, and only a few brave and powerful golden eagles are their natural enemies.

These mountain goats were all fat and strong. Xi Yunting flew over and caught one that was just one year old. The meat of this kind was the most tender.

Xi Yunting returned, held Chen Xiao's hand again, and said to him: "The meat of this mountain goat is the most delicious. There is no need to cook it. Just cut the most tender part and dip it in salt and eat it directly. It will be delicious."

Chen Xiao was so excited about what he said that he took the mountain goat and put it directly into the storage box to keep it fresh.

"Brother, have you eaten it?" he asked curiously.

Xi Yunting seemed to be reminiscing. He nodded and said, "The first time I came to Youkun Mountain for training, I walked a little further alone and found this place. It was also during that time that I hunted argali for food and realized how good it tasted."

Chen Xiao saw the thoughtful look in his eyes and didn't ask him why he was alone. He just felt pity in his heart.

He smiled and followed the topic, saying, "This is really something I am looking forward to. Big brother, take me to see the tea trees. After we see the tea trees, we will go back."

Xi Yunting did not doubt him and flew deeper with Chen Xiao. After turning two corners, there was another large cliff in front of them. The angle of this cliff was gentler than the one we saw just now. Although it was also very steep, it was not that dangerous.

On the large protruding rocks, huge tea trees grow in the cracks, and they look like they are hundreds of years old.

It was autumn, and the fully grown tea leaves were thick, with lush green surfaces that seemed to be dripping with oil.

"What a big tea tree!" Chen Xiao said in amazement. "There was no tree where the mountain goat stayed before, but I didn't expect there would be a tea tree not far away."

Xi Yunting said: "This is because the location here is buffered by two canyons in the middle, so the wind is not so strong, and these tea trees can grow into timber."

Chen Xiao felt it. Although the wind here was also strong, it was much milder than that at the Rock Sheep Cliff. The evidence was that the weathering degree of the rocks here was less than that there. The soil blown from the leeward part of the rocks could provide nutrients for the growth of tea trees.

At this time, Xi Yunting let him go, flew above a tea tree, and with delicate operations and true energy, picked twenty kilograms of intact tea leaves.

Facing Chen Xiao's puzzled gaze, Xi Yunting controlled the leaves to gather into a ball and carefully put them into the storage bag.

He said: "Tea can be divided into spring tea, summer tea and autumn tea. I have never made autumn tea before, and I don't know how different it is from spring tea?"

Chen Xiao had long been curious about his magical skill of frying tea with bare hands. Now that Xi Yunting was willing to show it to him, of course he fully agreed.

"Autumn tea must taste delicious too!"

The two of them returned to the Zhenwo Building happily. Xi Yunting cut the meat of the ibex himself and shared the tenderest part with Chen Xiao.

Originally Chen Xiao thought that Xiao Ba had not seen the light of day for a long time, so it was time to let it out for some fresh air. However, considering that this place was so close to the back mountain and there were wild animals active not far from the True Self Building, he gave up the idea for safety reasons.

Soul beasts are not immortal. Xiao Ba is so important. If he is eaten by a wolf or a leopard, he will have no place to cry.

Twenty kilograms of tea leaves were processed very quickly. In less than half a day, Xi Yunting completed the procedures of frying, kneading and drying the tea leaves.

Xi Yunting filled an empty tea box with tea, thinking that even though it was not spring tea, the master would be satisfied with his intention, right?

He rubbed the back of his neck and sighed. He was actually infected by Chen Xiao's nervousness. You know, he was originally a person who was calm and unmoved, and would not be easily affected by external things.

"Are you ready?" Chen Xiao frowned and looked up at the sky outside. The sun was already at noon.

It is also after the immortal cultivators reach the Nascent Soul stage that they begin to practice fasting. Otherwise, if you visit them at this time, you will be criticized.

"Okay." Xi Yunting put away the tea box.

The two left the Zhenwo Building and flew towards the hall where Taisu Zhenren was.

When they arrived at the place, the disciples who had known they were coming came to greet them.

After greeting Xi Yunting, the other party whispered, "Uncle Master Xi, our Grandmaster is in seclusion and cannot see guests for the time being."

Xi Yunting was stunned and asked, "How long has Master been in seclusion?"

The disciple lowered his head and said, "It has been more than a month."

Xi Yunting's eyes moved slightly, and he nodded slowly: "I understand. If the master tells you to go, tell him that the man I married is back and wants to see him."

The disciple raised his head, lowered his eyes and agreed: "I understand, and I will report the truth to the master."

Xi Yunting didn't say anything else, but handed the spiritual incense and the newly made autumn tea prepared by Chen Xiao to the disciple.

Turning around, he whispered to Chen Xiao, "Let's go. Master is in retreat, so we won't be able to see him this time."

At this time, Chen Xiao didn't notice anything. He just felt relieved that the exam was about to be postponed.

But it was not until they left the hall together that he realized something was wrong.

The wind was not strong, but Xi Yunting took the initiative to hold his hand, and held it so tightly that it hurt him a little.
