Ji Yun sighed, realizing that being a villain was so enjoyable; he had entered the book in a dream, and it turned out that he was the villain.

Bad people are frightening, while good people are endearing. I used to want to be a good person, but now, sorry, I'm a member of the demonic path.

"I'm glad you're not angry, senior. Um... Yuexi wants to go into seclusion."

"Is the competition over? When you fought Lin Shengwen, did you immediately concede defeat as soon as you stepped onto the stage?"

"No, I had a duel with Senior Brother Lin, but Yuexi was no match for him and lost."

Ji Yun nodded; the plot had already deviated slightly, which was within his expectations.

"The most important thing in cultivation is cultivating the mind. How far you can go on the path of cultivation depends on your heart towards the Dao. A strong desire to win will only lead you to mediocrity. Maintain a firm heart that is devoted to the Dao!"

"Yuexi understands now. Senior truly lives up to his reputation as a Demonic Path Venerable. I have benefited greatly from his teachings!"

Yuexi's mental state had changed, and some Daoist energy had even appeared on her body.

Ji Yun was somewhat surprised that his nonsense could lead to enlightenment. However, he didn't disturb Yue Xi and let her meditate in peace.

Two hours later, Yuexi broke through three levels in a row, directly reaching the fifth level of the Golden Core stage.

Yuexi opened her eyes and sensed her own condition: "Thank you for your guidance, senior. Yuexi has directly broken through to the fifth level of the Golden Core stage."

Ji Yun feigned calmness: "Hmm, I rarely guide others in their cultivation. You're quite good. Once you've accumulated enough experience..."

Ji Yun suddenly stopped talking; he did it on purpose to scare the fairy.

really!

"Senior... what did you say next?" Yuexi became frightened and looked pitiful.

"nothing."

"Is Senior planning to fatten up Yuexi and then use her for something? I knew it, waaaaaah..."

Seeing the fairy crying in fear, Ji Yun slapped his thigh, trying to suppress his laughter.

"Ahem! Don't panic, I'm not that kind of person."

"Waaah... Everyone in the cultivation world knows what you've done, senior. You once secretly manipulated a righteous genius..."

"Stop!" Ji Yun interrupted her directly. That was what the Blood Fiend Venerable did, what did it have to do with him, Ji Yun?

"Senior, could you please spare Yuexi?"

"It's not impossible, as long as it makes me happy."

"Then how can I make my senior happy?"

Yuexi wiped away her tears. As long as she could be spared, she was willing to do her best to help this devil.

"Go out for a stroll. Cultivation isn't just about seclusion. Experiencing this world is much better than you foolishly shutting yourself away in seclusion."

"Okay, I'll listen to you, senior."

Yuexi walked straight out of the room, not knowing where she was going to go.

Unconsciously, she walked to the main peak square. There are five peaks, the largest and highest of which is the main peak. Disciples from each peak usually communicate here.

There were many Lingyun Sect disciples practicing their spells in the square. Some of them saw Yuexi coming and quickly greeted her.

"Senior Sister Yuexi, how do you think Junior Brother's swordsmanship is?"

A young cultivator immediately began to demonstrate a sword technique. They already knew that there was a rift between Yuexi and Lin Shengwen, and felt that their opportunity had come.

Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at the boy who wanted to show off in front of Yuexi, and they all teased him.

"Junior Brother Qing Le, this won't do. You're using too much force."

A fellow disciple with a spirit beast perched on his shoulder stepped forward and shouted, "Junior brother, your sword technique isn't right this time. You should practice more."

"......"

After finishing his swordplay routine, ignoring his fellow disciples, he asked, "What do you think, Senior Sister?"

"Not bad, junior brother, keep up the good work." Yuexi encouraged him and prepared to leave.

"Junior sister, don't go yet! Look, your senior brother's spirit beast has mutated recently..."

Yuexi ignored the beast-taming senior brother and prepared to leave.

The beast-taming senior brother shouted, "No, Junior Sister Yuexi, my Little Five can do a backflip!"

Upon hearing this, Ji Yun immediately became anxious: "Yuexi, don't go yet."

"Oh, okay, senior." Yuexi stopped and turned around.

When the senior brother who was a beast tamer saw Yuexi stop, he quickly said, "I just taught him a few days ago. Junior Sister Yuexi, take a look. My Xiao Wu is very smart."

"Okay, let me take a look." Yuexi forced a smile.

She wasn't really interested, but her senior seemed to want to see it. She really didn't understand what was so interesting about a backflip.

The senior brother who tamed beasts began to command the spirit beast: "Little Five, do a few backflips."

Then the spirit beast flipped over a few times, and what was most amazing was that the spirit beast was a spirit tortoise.

However, the spirit beast couldn't flip over in the last moment, and ended up upside down with its long head outstretched, calling for its master to save it.

"Ahem, my mistake." The Beast Taming Senior Brother gave an awkward smile and quickly went to help his spirit beast.

Everyone suppressed their laughter; there was nothing they could do, as this senior brother was the most powerful among them, and they dared not act recklessly.

Ji Yun was astonished: "That's it? You scared the hell out of me."

"Senior?" Yuexi asked in confusion.

"It's alright, let's go."

"..." Yuexi felt that her senior was a bit childish; even a backflip could pique his interest.

Li Wunian and a fairy next to him were coming out of their master's place when they saw Yuexi in the martial arts training square and hurried over.

"Junior Sister Yuexi!"

Upon hearing the sound, Yuexi looked up and then flew up as well.

"Senior Sister Wunian, Senior Sister Lanlan, are you getting ready to go out?"

Li Wunian smiled and said, "Yes, Senior Sister Lanlan is going to Tianxin City to sell some talismans in exchange for some spirit stones."

"Oh, I see."

Lan Lan extended her hand in invitation: "Junior Sister Yuexi, would you like to come along? I've refined quite a few talismans this time."

Yuexi knew that the talismans made by Senior Sister Lanlan were mostly sold outside, with less demand from fellow disciples, and it was difficult to set a price. Selling them at the market might yield more profit if there was an urgent need.

"This..." Yuexi hesitated, unsure if her senior would be willing.

"Go ahead, feel free to do whatever you want." Ji Yun saw through her thoughts.

Li Wunian held Yuexi's small hand: "Junior Sister Yuexi, come with us. Oh? You've reached the fifth level of the Golden Core stage?"

Li Wunian was astonished. She had caught up with him in a short time. How could his junior sister have made so many breakthroughs in such a short period of time!

Yuexi: "Hmm, I've had an epiphany."

The big devil is trying to fatten me up, but once I'm strong enough, I'll show him what cruelty is.

"Great, let's go to Tianxin City together." Li Wunian pulled Yuexi and Lanlan away.

Suddenly, Lin Shengwen emerged from seclusion and was also preparing to head to Tianxin City, where he happened to run into them.

“Oh, it’s Senior Brother Lin,” Lan Lan said.

Yuexi suppressed her smile, her expression becoming calm.

Lin Shengwen flew over and said with a smile, "Junior Sister Yuexi, Junior Sister Wunian, Junior Sister Lanlan, where are you all headed?"

“We’re going to Tianxin City,” Lan Lan replied.

"What a coincidence, I was also planning to go there, let's go together."

Li Wunian didn't think much of it. Yuexi didn't want to be with this Senior Brother Lin at all, but she had no choice but to remain silent and expressionless.
