Zhongli Wuyuan calmly took the golden token and looked at Elder Liang thoughtfully. He suddenly remembered that he had seen the young version of Liang Guanren in the large illusion in the forbidden sea area.

His temperament then was exactly the same as it is now.

Zhongli Wuyuan collected his thoughts, raised his hand and bowed respectfully, saying, "Thank you, Master."

"You're being polite." Elder Liang patted his shoulder and said with a smile. He had accepted another disciple, and only Uncle Yan was missing... Phew, Disciple Yan Chen had gathered eight members of the Fengyun team.

Elder Liang sighed inwardly. He had seen many talented people. Some were even more talented than Feng Xinglan and Yu Qiu, but few had the same steadfast character as them.

They not only have cohesion, but also support each other's progress.

Most importantly—

They have a good captain.

Elder Liang looked at the girl in red, his eyes narrowed slightly. This was the peerless genius that always impressed him!

And, for some reason, the more he interacted with Yun Zheng, the more familiar he felt. And that familiarity was... heartfelt submission, intimacy, admiration, and awe.

He felt this when he was in Zhongling Province.

Yun Zheng seemed to notice his gaze and tilted her head slightly to look at him in confusion, "What's wrong?"

Elder Liang quickly came back to his senses, a flattering smile appeared on his old face, and he said exaggeratedly: "Little Ancestor, you are so beautiful!"

"Master, can you give your mouth a rest for a quarter of an hour?"

Upon hearing this, Elder Liang sadly wiped away the non-existent tears from the corners of his eyes, as if he had suffered some great injustice and said, "Okay!"

Yun Zheng had no expression on her face: "..."

Finally, they all passed through the barrier formation and entered Guanren Mountain.

A few seconds after they entered, a green shadow quickly followed in and passed through the barrier formation without causing any ripples.

Elder Liang noticed something and looked back. Although he didn't see anything, he vaguely guessed who this person was. He was probably Qingfeng who had always been guarding the little ancestor.

I didn't expect Qingfeng to be so powerful.

If Qingfeng is so powerful, then wouldn’t his master, Emperor Rongshuo, be even more powerful?

A flash of inspiration came to Elder Liang's mind, and he frowned. There seemed to be a mysterious force called Shuo Palace on that advanced continent.

Could it be that the master of Shuo Palace is Emperor Rong Shuo?!

At this moment, Yun Zheng took in the scene in front of him. He saw a neat row of tall bamboo houses located on the right. Behind the bamboo houses in the distance was a waterfall with the sound of water continuing.

At first glance, the waterfall leans against the green hills, giving people a sense of tranquility.

On the left side is a large open space, which has been chopped into pieces and is in a mess, with many cracks in it.

Directly in front of us is a small hill, and at the foot of the hill are several small benches neatly arranged.

Behind the small hill is a large spiritual fruit forest. The large and plump golden fruits are tempting, but this fruit forest seems to be set up with a barrier formation.

Seeing Yun Zheng's gaze fixed on the orchard, Yu Qiu smiled helplessly and said, "Master won't let us pick any of the fruits. He said he wants to leave them for you and Qingqing."

Mo Jing suddenly rushed out from behind Yun Zheng and said in a dark voice, "Master is so biased..."

Elder Liang frowned at them, raised his hand and pointed at a plaque erected in a corner in front of him, and said unhappily: "Don't you see? These spiritual fruits can only be eaten by fairies."

Yun Zheng looked in the direction he pointed, and saw three words written on the small golden plaque: Fairy Fruit.

She smiled slightly and said, "Thank you so much, Master."

Elder Liang heard this and said with a smile, "From now on, I will plant a patch of 'Big Fairy Fruit' for you and Disciple Qingqing. You will definitely be able to eat as much as you want."

Yun Zheng and Nangong Qingqing: "..."

"What about us?" Mu Yin stared at Elder Liang with a resentful look in his eyes.

Elder Liang's smile faded, and he replied with a disdainful tone, "Alright, I'll plant two 'rough man fruit' trees for you in that corner over there later."

"Just two?"

“Three at most!”

Mo Jing shook his head silently and muttered softly, "Too stingy, really too stingy, unimaginably stingy..."

Elder Liang looked at Mo Jing, who was sitting on a small stool with his head down and constantly complaining about him. The corners of his mouth twitched violently.

Boy, do you think I can't hear you?

…

Yun Zheng's residence was set in one of the bamboo houses, adjacent to Nangong Qingqing and Mu Yin's bamboo houses.

Since there were still many vacant bamboo houses, Yun Zheng personally consulted with Elder Liang and decided to reserve one for Qingfeng to live in.

Elder Liang waved his hand and said with a cheerful smile, "No problem!"

The two chatted seriously for a while.

Suddenly, Yun Zheng took out a bottle of crystal clear liquid from the storage space, and placed it on the table with a slight "clang" sound.

Seeing this, Elder Liang's pupils shrank slightly. He first looked up at Yun Zheng, then lowered his eyes and stared at the bottle of liquid.

"This is..." His voice trembled with excitement.

"Master, this is the Floating Moon Holy Liquid."

Elder Liang suddenly looked up at her, "Did you really get it?!"

Yun Zheng nodded, then raised her hand and pushed the jade bottle in front of Elder Liang, a smile on her lips, "This can be considered a gift for becoming a disciple."

Elder Liang's expression changed, and he asked seriously, "Are you really going to give it to me? This thing is very valuable! Many things combined cannot compare to its value..."

"I know the value of this thing."

Yun Zheng continued, "I gave you the Floating Moon Holy Liquid not only because of my previous promise, but also because you have been so kind to me and my companions."

"Little Ancestor..."

Yun Zheng said, "Master, put it away and go save the person you want to save."

Elder Liang was stunned for a moment, his eyes slightly red. He raised his hand to pick up the jade bottle, and said with a slightly choked voice: "Then I, Liang Guanren, will not be so pretentious anymore."

After a pause, he lowered his eyes and said, "I may have to leave the sect for a while. If nothing unexpected happens, I will be back in two months."

"Although I, Liang Guanren, am not here, you can rely on my power, little ancestor, so don't let anyone bully you."

…

After Elder Liang took the Floating Moon Holy Liquid away, he left the Shen Ye Sect alone within a few hours. However, before leaving the Shen Ye Sect, he visited the Sect Master.

Elder Liang also confidently handed over the Fengyun members to Yun Zheng's care.

On the night after Elder Liang left, several people led by Yu Qiu sneaked into the spiritual fruit forest. Not only did they steal spiritual fruits to eat, but they also asked Yun Zheng to use these spiritual fruits to refine spiritual wine.

The golden fruit wine is ready and its aroma is everywhere.

They drank the wine again and chatted happily.

Nangong Qingqing took a sip of the spirit wine, looked up at Yun Zheng and asked, "Zheng Zheng, how do you plan to practice in the sect?"
