Chapter 432 Purple and Blue Three Peaks

Master Tu Yang is a Nascent Soul cultivator with a dignified appearance and extraordinary bearing, followed by a group of Golden Core disciples. When he said this, all the disciples immediately looked at Ning Daoran.

There are many admirers of Zhang Ningxin among the disciples, and many of them are jealous.

Senior Sister Ning Xin had been gone for half a year, and now she had just returned with this person. Could it be that they were a Taoist partner during their travels? How could this be possible? Many disciples had already placed their hands on the hilts of their swords, and their auras were tense.

"I am Master Qiushui."

Ning Daoran said calmly: "He is a casual cultivator traveling around Qinzhou..."

"Exactly."

Zhang Ningxin stepped forward, blocking half of Ning Daoran's figure, and said respectfully: "Master, I encountered some troubles during my trip this time, so I was delayed for a long time. Not long ago, on the way back to the sect, I was chased by a third-level late-stage monster. Fortunately, Daoist Fellow Qiushui helped me and I escaped."

She pursed her red lips and said, "Fellow Daoist Qiushui is a casual cultivator who is unfamiliar with Qinzhou, so I brought him back to the sect. I hope Master will understand."

"oh?"

Zhenjun Tu Yang's eyes became extremely vague. He swept across Ning Daoran and confirmed that he was indeed a casual cultivator in the middle stage of the Golden Core Realm, practicing the wood and water attributes. He smiled calmly and said, "I see. Thank you, young friend Qiu Shui, for your help. Since you are Ning Xin's benefactor, you are a guest of our Qianyuan Sect. I should do my best to be a good host."

"Thank you, senior. You are so polite!"

Ning Daoran said: "Fairy Ning Xin's cultivation is very good. Although she may not be able to kill a third-level monster, she is on par with it. I just followed the situation and helped the fairy sneak attack the monster. It was not a life-saving favor."

"I see."

Master Tu Yang's eyes lit up and he said with a smile, "However, you must go up the mountain anyway to taste the unique wine brewed by our Qianyuan Sect."

"good."

Ning Daoran clasped his fists and said, "In that case, I will be disrespectful to refuse!"

A group of Qianyuan Sect disciples also looked relieved. Since this person was not Senior Sister Ning Xin's Taoist partner, it didn't matter. Judging from his ordinary appearance, Senior Sister would definitely not be attracted to him.

…

night.

In a small pavilion on a mountain peak of Qianyuan Sect, Master Tu Yang hosted a banquet for Ning Daoran. However, Master Tu Yang was the deputy sect leader and was busy with many affairs. He only stayed for less than half an hour before leaving. Only Zhang Ningxin and an elder Lin were left with him.

Elder Lin is in the late Jindan stage and has profound foundation, but he has not been able to break through to the Yuanying stage due to lack of life span, and his life span is almost over.

"My dear Qiushui."

Elder Lin narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Since this is your first time in Qinzhou, you may not be familiar with everything here. If you have some free time, you can let Ning Xin take you around. There are nine peaks in Qianyuan Sect, and there are dozens of outer peaks outside the nine peaks. In addition, there are markets where mortals and immortal cultivators gather. You can go there and take a look."

"Um!"

Zhang Ningxin nodded heavily and said with a smile: "Fellow Daoist Ning, you can tell me where you want to go."

"Thank you, fairy."

Ning Daoran clasped his fists and smiled.

"My dear Qiushui."

Elder Lin continued, "Since you, Mr. Qiushui, have just arrived here and have no place to stay, I do have a suggestion."

"Oh? Elder Lin, you can speak frankly."

"There are nine peaks in my Qianyuan Sect, and each peak has a peak master and two guardians guarding it. If you are willing... Nanyang Peak is currently lacking a right guardian. With Qiu Shui's cultivation and his friendship with Ning Xin, I am willing to recommend you to the Sect Master to serve as the right guardian of Nanyang Peak."

He narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Once you become the right protector of Qianyuan Sect, you will have to pay thousands of spirit stones every year. In addition, you will have a cave of at least third-grade quality. You can also select two female disciples from the outer sect to serve as servants in the cave. You can settle down in Qianyuan Sect and slowly seek the great way. What do you think?"

"Join Qianyuan Sect?"

Ning Daoran's heart trembled, and he frowned and said, "Elder Lin, it's not that I don't want to join Qianyuan Sect, it's just that... although I am a casual cultivator, I actually have a master. My master has been in seclusion for many years and his life and death are unknown. If he is still alive, it would be disrespectful to the master if I join Qianyuan Sect. I hope Elder Lin will forgive me. It's not that I am willing, but I can't."

"I see……"

Elder Lin stroked his beard gently and said, "In that case, I will not force you. What are your plans next, young friend? Where are you going?"

"Fellow Daoist Ning is leaving?"

Zhang Ningxin frowned slightly, with a complicated look in her beautiful eyes, and said, "Is it okay if we don't leave?"

Ning Daoran almost blurted out, "If I don't leave, will you support me?" Fortunately, he suppressed this impulse with his strong willpower and just frowned and said, "I haven't decided where to go next."

“I see…”

Zhang Ningxin showed a hint of joy and said, "If you don't want to join Qianyuan Sect, I have a suggestion."

"Oh? Fairy Ning Xin, please speak!"

"There are three connected peaks in the northern outer mountains of our Qianyuan Sect, named the Purple and Green Peaks. They are Zixia Peak, Qingxia Peak, and Luoxia Peak. There is a third-level middle-grade cave on the top of each of these three peaks, and spiritual fields and lakes have been opened up on the mountainside. Currently, among the three peaks, only Luoxia Peak is still ownerless."

She bit her red lips and said, "If you are willing, you can rent Luoxia Peak and practice there. You don't have to wander around anymore."

Ning Daoran's mind brightened up. This was a good idea.

However, as a foreigner who had just arrived, he did not know whether Qianyuan Sect was willing to rent a mountain to him. After all, many sects had various harsh conditions for renting mountains.

For a moment, he looked embarrassed.

Zhang Ningxin looked straight at him with her beautiful eyes, and seemed to see Ning Daoran's dilemma. She gritted her teeth and said, "The annual rent of Luoxia Peak is about one thousand spirit stones. If the rent starts from ten years, it will be ten thousand spirit stones. If Brother Ning Dao is short of spirit stones, Ningxin has some surplus spirit stones here, you can use them first."

“…”

Ning Daoran was speechless.

Zhang Ningxin seemed to be very enthusiastic towards him. Could it be because he saved her life? "Whatever."

Ning Daoran said, "I am willing to pay 10,000 spirit stones to rent Luoxia Peak for ten years, but I don't know where to sign the contract. I also don't know where Luoxia Peak is located."

"No problem."

Elder Lin patted his storage bag, took out a stack of contracts, picked out one of them, and said, "I have always been in charge of leasing the outer peaks. If you, young friend Qiu Shui, want to lease Luoxia Peak, it is just a matter of a word from me. Are you sure you want to lease this mountain?"

"Ning wants to take a look first, is that possible?"

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

"Can."

Elder Lin stood up and said with a smile, "Ning Xin, will you accompany me to visit the Purple and Green Three Peaks?"

"good!"

Zhang Ningxin had a smile on her face.

…

The three of them rode on their light of escape and left Qianyuan Sect, flying about twenty miles towards the north, when they saw peaks with rich spiritual energy appearing in the forest. Among them, there were three peaks standing adjacent to each other. The spiritual energy was extremely rich, and they were of the third-grade, mid-quality variety. They were the peaks with the highest concentration of spiritual veins in the surrounding area.

"My friend."

Elder Lin raised his hand and pointed, smiling, "The mountain on the left is Zixia Peak, the one in the middle is Qingxia Peak, and the one on the right is Luoxia Peak that you are about to rent. There is a cave on the top of Luoxia Peak, and there are dozens of acres of spiritual fields on the mountainside. They are currently rented out to some spiritual farmers. If you rent the mountain, the annual rent from those spiritual farmers will be directly paid to you."

"good."

Ning Daoran flew into Luoxia Peak, stretched out his hand and flicked it, directly dissolving an extremely thin restriction. He landed in front of the cave, took a look at the cave restriction, and said with a smile: "Can Ning enter the cave to take a look?"

"Can."

Elder Lin took out a cave jade talisman from his storage bag. After unlocking it, the cave restriction immediately dissipated.

Ning Daoran stepped into the cave, which was a different world inside. Although it was far inferior to the caves he lived in on Liuhua Island and Nantian Palace, it was still pretty good. There was no need to be too luxurious on the road to cultivating immortals, an ordinary life would be enough.

What's more, this cave is actually unusual, and ordinary Jindan cultivators may not be able to afford to rent it.

"Fellow Daoist, how is it?"

Zhang Ningxin followed beside and asked with a smile.

“It’s OK.”

Ning Daoran took a deep breath and said, "Elder Lin, I will pay ten years' rent first and stay here for ten years."

As he said that, he took out his storage bag and took out ten thousand spirit stones.

"Can."

Elder Lin immediately made a mark on the contract document, and then handed it and the matching cave jade talisman, formation jade talisman, etc. to Ning Daoran, saying: "From today on, fellow Qiu Shui is the master of Luoxia Peak. Everything in this peak is under the control of fellow Qiu Shui. In addition, there are two cultivators living in Zixia Peak and Qingxia Peak. In your spare time, fellow Qiu Shui can interact with them more. For independent cultivators, such interactions are beneficial and harmless."

"I understand. Thank you, Elder!"

So, Ning Daoran moved into Luoxia Peak and became the master of this peak.

Elder Lin then left. After Zhang Ningxin lingered for a long time, he said that he would come to visit often in the future, and then returned to Qianyuan Sect.

…

Ning Daoran took a deep breath and it was time to decorate the new home.

He rearranged hundreds of prohibitions for the cave and set up a third-order intermediate-grade White Feather Flowing Sound Formation to guard the cave. Then he and Dabenlu, Xiaobai and others moved things out from the Lingpu Cave and rearranged the cave. Soon, the cave took on a new look and already had a bit of a homely feel.

Thus, the news that a middle-stage Jindan cultivator named Qiu Shui Zhenren had settled in Luoxia Peak quickly spread among the three Ziqing peaks.

In the evening, a very pleasant female voice came from outside——

"Fellow Daoist Qiushui, I, Liu Ruyan, the head of Qingxia Peak, have come to visit you specially!"
