The shopkeeper was a middle-aged woman who greeted Qing Xuanzi and Rong Jiaojiao with a warm smile when they entered.
"Welcome to Immortal Garment Pavilion. Senior, what would you like to see?" the shopkeeper asked Qing Xuanzi warmly.
Qing Xuanzi nodded slightly: "I would like to choose a few fairy clothes for my disciple. I wonder if there are any styles that would suit her?"
The shopkeeper nodded, walked to a clothes rack, took out a few dresses and handed them to Qing Xuanzi: "These fairy clothes are all the best in our shop, made of superior materials, and are suitable for you to wear while cultivating, young friend."
Rong Jiaojiao took the fairy clothes, her eyes glued to them.
She whispered to Qing Xuanzi, "Master, I like this pink dress."
Qing Xuanzi looked at the fairy robe, which was embroidered with several pink lotus flowers, making it look exceptionally fresh and lovely.
He smiled slightly: "Okay, this one will do. Also, pick out a few more in other colors so Jiaobao can wear them in rotation."
Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper took out several more immortal robes of different colors and said, "These immortal robes are all of the same style, and the materials and workmanship are the same. I guarantee that you will be satisfied, young friend."
Qing Xuanzi took the fairy robe and let Rong Jiaojiao choose.
Rong Jiaojiao chose a light purple and turquoise dress, then looked at Qing Xuanzi expectantly.
Qing Xuanzi smiled and asked the shopkeeper, "How much are these three items?"
Although these dresses are called fairy robes, they are just ordinary mulberry silk made from silkworms from the fairy mountain. Apart from making female cultivators look ethereal, they have no other use. They are not as good as ordinary magic robes, which at least have some defensive capabilities.
The female shopkeeper replied, "Although these are all ordinary fairy robes, they are all embroidered with some small dust-removing arrays using spirit silkworm silk, so three pieces will cost ten spirit pearls."
Although it was quite expensive, Qing Xuanzi took out a spirit pearl and handed it to the shopkeeper: "Please check if it's enough."
The shopkeeper took the spirit pearl and smiled slightly: "That's enough. Thank you for your patronage, senior."
Qing Xuanzi handed a fairy robe to Rong Jiaojiao and said, "Jiaobao, go change into this now, and then we'll go back to our camp."
The female shopkeeper noticed they had returned from outside and offered to help them enthusiastically.
After changing Rong Jiaojiao's clothes, he also braided two cute little braids for her and tied them with two pink ribbons, making her look exceptionally adorable.
Rong Jiaojiao looked at herself in the mirror from left to right, beaming with joy: "Master, isn't Jiaobao pretty?"
Qing Xuanzi smiled slightly: "It looks beautiful. My darling looks just like a little fairy in her fairy clothes."
Upon hearing this, Rong Jiaojiao's eyes curved into crescent moons, and she happily twirled around the store a few times, her skirt swaying gently with her movements, making her appear exceptionally graceful.
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Young friend, wearing this fairy robe, you truly live up to your name, beautiful and charming."
Qing Xuanzi carefully put away the fairy robes and led Rong Jiaojiao out of the Fairy Robe Pavilion.
Wearing her new fairy clothes, Rong Jiaojiao looked exceptionally radiant. When she was happy, her words were sweet: "Master, I love these fairy clothes so much, thank you, Master."
Qing Xuanzi smiled and patted her head: "I'm glad you like it. We'll come back to buy more beautiful fairy clothes in the future."
"Thank you, Master. You are the best master in the world."
Qing Xuanzi was pleased by his praise and laughed, "You have such a sweet tongue. Come on, Master will take you home."
Qing Xuanzi led Rong Jiaojiao through the bustling crowd and headed towards the Xuanqing Sect's headquarters.
The Xuanqing Gate's headquarters is located on the east side of the market. It is an ancient and elegant building surrounded by various exotic flowers and plants, which emit a faint fragrance.
Qing Xuanzi led Rong Jiaojiao into the Xuanqing Sect's residence. Several disciples were busy inside, and when they saw someone enter, they all looked at Qing Xuanzi and the others.
Most of the disciples who come here are older disciples who are not highly qualified but have voluntarily chosen to stay here.
Upon seeing Qing Xuanzi, he recognized him and immediately stepped forward to pay his respects, saying, "Greetings, Grandmaster!"
The Xuanqing Sect has always followed the ancient etiquette in its address system. Those who are one level higher in cultivation are called "Shishu" (Master Uncle), and those who are two or more levels higher are called "Shizu" (Grandmaster). Therefore, those with lower cultivation levels are all called "Qingxuanzi Shizu" (Grandmaster Qingxuanzi).
Qing Xuanzi nodded slightly in response: "I need to return to my sect. I wonder if the teleportation array is still usable?"
Previously, teleportation arrays could be used to teleport anyone with spirit stones, but later, as spiritual energy gradually dried up, various sects had to modify their arrays.
Based on the teleportation array, a spirit-attracting array and a spirit-storing array were added, allowing the array to absorb and store spiritual energy from the air for use as energy for short-distance teleportation.
The senior disciple replied, "No one has used the teleportation array today. The array has sufficient energy, so our master can use it."
Qing Xuanzi nodded and led Rong Jiaojiao to the area where the teleportation array was located. It was a spacious room with a small teleportation array in the center.
Two disciples responsible for managing the teleportation array stood around it. When they saw Qing Xuanzi approaching, they stepped forward to greet him, saying, "Greetings, Grandmaster!"
Qing Xuanzi nodded slightly and asked, "Is the teleportation array usable now?"
One of the disciples replied, "Grandmaster, the teleportation array has sufficient spiritual energy and can be activated at any time."
Qing Xuanzi nodded and led Rong Jiaojiao into the center of the teleportation array.
The ground of the teleportation array was covered with complex runes, which shimmered faintly under the nourishment of spiritual energy.
Qing Xuanzi took out a token from his sleeve and placed it on the activation position of the teleportation array.
The teleportation array began to absorb the accumulated spiritual energy, and the runes began to flicker, the light growing brighter and brighter.
"Grandmaster, please stand firm, the teleportation array is about to be activated," the disciple in charge of managing the teleportation array shouted a reminder.
Qing Xuanzi nodded to the disciple, and with a flash of dazzling light, they instantly disappeared from the spot.
When the light faded, Qing Xuanzi and Rong Jiaojiao had already arrived at Xuanqing Sect.
Qing Xuanzi carried Rong Jiaojiao out of the teleportation array. The surrounding disciples saw them and stepped forward to greet them, saying, "Greetings, Grandmaster!"
Qing Xuanzi nodded slightly and led Rong Jiaojiao out of the teleportation hall. What they saw was a valley surrounded by mountains, shrouded in clouds and mist, and filled with a rich spiritual energy.
A clear stream flows through the middle of the valley, its waters gurgling and making a pleasant sound.
A light mist hangs in the valley, giving it a dreamlike and ethereal feel.
In the distance, a magnificent palace stands at the end of the valley, its roof covered with glazed tiles, making it look exceptionally grand.
The palace was surrounded by many houses and pavilions, which were shrouded in rings of clouds and mist, making it seem like a fairyland.
The architectural style is simple and elegant, with upturned eaves and carved beams and painted rafters, every detail revealing an ancient and mysterious atmosphere.
Above the main gate of the palace hangs a huge plaque with the three golden characters “Xuanqing Gate” written on it, giving it a solemn and dignified appearance.
Qing Xuanzi led Rong Jiaojiao along the path in the valley. The path was lined with all kinds of exotic flowers and plants, which bloomed with brilliant colors and exuded a rich fragrance.
