"Senior brother, the senior sisters have all gone to train. Do you have anything to do while you stay on the mountain?" Xu Na walked up to Ye Liang and asked timidly.

Ye Liang smiled and said, "I don't have anything to do today. I'll just stay on the mountain and guard the sect. Today, some people from the Haoqi Sect might come to visit the sect. We have a grudge against the Haoqi Sect, so they might not be here with good intentions. Therefore, I'll be waiting for them. We can't let them come and cause trouble, and tear down our sect."

"Then I'll stay with my senior brother!" Junior Sister Xu Na said quietly and gently.

Ye Liang said, “Alright. It’s just the two of us at the mountain gate now, so it’s quieter. You can focus on practicing your beginner’s cultivation method. Once you open your meridians, I’ll arrange for my senior sister to guide you. Just like Junior Sister Wen Shi, once you open your meridians, you can quickly grow to the peak of the Qi Refining Realm and then prepare for Foundation Establishment.”

"Thank you, senior brother. I will definitely work hard and won't let you down," Xu Na said earnestly.

Ye Liang glanced at the girl, who was even younger than his senior sister and had a slender build, and said with a firm look in his eyes, "Senior brother believes in you. Don't put too much pressure on yourself. If there's anything you don't understand, feel free to ask your senior sister, okay?"

"Understood." Ye Liang's instructions immediately warmed Xu Na's heart. Even though there was no one else at the mountain gate at the moment, she, a girl, felt no fear or unease being alone with her senior brother.

She still felt at ease and trusted her senior brother.

Even though you're accompanying your senior brother, you don't need to follow him closely.

Knowing that her senior brother was inside the mountain gate was enough for Xu Na to focus on practicing her sect's internal cultivation techniques.

Ye Liang would sometimes be at the mountain gate, sometimes at the construction site, and sometimes he would come over to check on her progress in her self-study of immortal cultivation. The two of them were together like this, so they weren't lonely.

Ye Liang had some free time today and also received letters from Lin Yan and Lu Ruoshui.

Lin Yan sent a message asking Ye Liang what he was doing and if he was with a beautiful woman.

As expected of the young lady of the evil sect, she dares to ask such a bold question directly.

Ye Liang dared to answer. Holding the letter, he showed her his surroundings and said, "Where are the beauties? There's only a little bear."

Lin Yan immediately burst into laughter at this answer.

She laughed for a while before happily telling Ye Liang that she had achieved Core Formation.

It went very smoothly, smoother than ever before.

She had achieved Core Formation and seemed very excited, telling Ye Liang many things from the past. Previously, in order to repair the Yellow Spring Umbrella, she had used her own strength to feed it, which was why she hadn't been able to form her Core.

Now that Brother Ye has repaired the Yellow Spring Umbrella, she is now receiving its support in return. It has guided her a great deal in terms of cultivation level through a very mysterious method, as if her mother is watching over her. She even said that this is her secret, a secret that she has never told anyone before.

Ye Liang didn't find it strange at all.

If he can have the help of a god-level account, then it's not surprising that Lin Yan has the help of the Yellow Spring Umbrella, a treasure of her sect.

Besides, Ye Liang also knew about the connection between Lu Ruoshui, the successor of the Daoist sect, and her successor sword, so Ye Liang naturally found it easy to accept this.

Ye Liang could only sense that Lin Yan truly considered him a friend, and was willing to share such an important secret with him.

Ye Liang smiled and said, "Lin Yan, you've reached the Core Formation stage. My senior sister has also reached the Core Formation stage, and I've given them all gifts. Today, I'll give you a gift too."

"Brother Ye, why are you being so polite with me? No need for gifts, just say congratulations." Lin Yan said happily, pleased by Ye Liang's words.

"It's already been sent. You'll receive it shortly." Ye Liang had already sent a gift to Lin Yan using the Golden Dragon Dart.

"What is it?" Lin Yan asked anxiously as soon as the gift arrived.

Ye Liang smiled and said, "You'll find out soon enough."

"Still keeping it a secret? Okay then, I'll wait a bit." Lin Yan smiled and replied to Ye Liang.

Less than two minutes later, Lin Yan received the gift sent by Ye Liang through the Golden Dragon Dart.

"Brother Ye, you gave me a flying treasure?" Lin Yan said with great joy in the message, with the flying treasure summoned by the flying treasure jade tablet already parked beside her.

A pair of huge, emerald-green wings.

It is a natural wonder, made entirely of jade.

Ye Liang smiled and said, "Seeing that you like wearing green clothes, I took the liberty of gifting you this Azure Winged Flying Treasure. Although it's a single-person flying treasure, it's a rare winged flying treasure. I don't know if you like it. If you don't, tell me and I'll get you another one."

"I love it! I love it! Thank you, Brother Ye. No need to change it! It's exactly what I like!" Lin Yan said excitedly, her words almost stammering.

"I'm glad you like it. Then I'm relieved." Ye Liang smiled, genuinely relieved.

Lin Yan said, "Brother Ye, I really don't know what to give you in return. Wait for me! I'll go look in the sect's treasury!"

Seeing Lin Yan rushing off to find him a treasure as a return gift, Ye Liang immediately stopped her with a smile, saying, "Your words are enough, no need to trouble yourself. You know your brother Ye doesn't lack anything. Seeing you happy is the best gift for me."

"Brother Ye!" Ye Liang's words sounded like a sympathetic remark, making even the young lady of the evil sect, who was considered a vixen by others, feel as if she had been flirted with by Ye Liang. Her stunningly beautiful face immediately flushed slightly.

But our young master, without realizing it, said something that sounded like a love confession. After all, he's a man who's been with countless women, so many things he says feel natural to him. Of course, you have to understand, the women listening to him now are different. They're not the beauties from the real world who can be kept, but rather these classic young women who are still girls. So, naturally, his words have a different effect on them.

"What's wrong?" Ye Liang asked with a smile, somewhat puzzled as to why Lin Yan had suddenly become shy.

Lin Yan, being a bewitching woman from the evil sect, still possessed a good heart. She quickly calmed down and smiled sweetly at Ye Liang, concealing her shyness as she said, "It's nothing, Brother Ye, I'm just too happy. Brother Ye, I'm going to take my flying mount to show my father right now, to embarrass him and let him know that he, the leader of the evil sect, hasn't even given me a decent gift after his daughter has reached the Core Formation stage. I'll use Brother Ye's gift to give him a good embarrassment."

"Be careful your dad doesn't get upset." Ye Liang said half-jokingly to Lin Yan, then ended their conversation at the appropriate time.

After ending his call with Lin Yan, Ye Liang also thought of Lu Ruoshui, the successor of the Daoist Tianming Sect. She had already reached the Golden Core Realm and was even more capable of controlling flying treasures. So, without showing favoritism, he forgot to give her a flying treasure as well.

"Ruoshui, you're a Golden Core Realm expert now, you can't be without a flying mount by your side. Brother Ye is also giving you a flying mount, I hope you like it and accept it, don't refuse!"

Ye Liang smiled and sent another Golden Dragon Dart letter to Lu Ruoshui, along with a new flying treasure.
