Little Platinum? Melatonin?
Shen Sui's eyes suddenly became strange, but she couldn't tell.
But Chen Sui quickly thought of something: "...So, Second Senior Brother, when you said earlier that the spirit beasts in the mountains might go berserk, were you trying to trick me?"
Shen Xinglan smiled and said, "Ah, how could I possibly lie to you? If you don't believe me, ask Senior Sister."
Chen Sui then looked at Xie Wanyu.
Xie Wanyu, who was tearing a roasted chicken, said calmly, "A few days ago, a disciple mistakenly entered Xuanqing Peak and stole a pheasant that a spirit beast had just caught. The spirit beast then held a grudge against him and kept chasing him around the sect."
Chen Sui: “…”
There is such a talented person in the sect, stealing the food of the spiritual beasts.
"So, even if Xiao Baijin is watching over us these days, he can't suppress the spirit beasts of our Xuanqing Peak." Shen Xinglan slowly took a bite of the roasted chicken leg he had just torn off.
As Chen Sui unwrapped the roasted chicken from its wrapping, he casually said, "But if a spirit beast has been restless for several days, it might be in heat."
Shen Xinglan and Xie Wanyu stopped what they were doing at the same time. They looked at each other, and then Xie Wanyu spoke first, saying in a deep voice, "I think she's right."
Shen Xinglan took a deep breath: "I understand."
Chen Sui, holding a chicken wing in her mouth, watched her senior sister and second brother's riddle-like conversation with a bewildered look: "What are you talking about? What do you know?"
At this time, Little Platinum quietly came to the side of Shen Sui, then obediently stayed close to Shen Sui, and whimpered softly at Shen Sui. The soft fur of Little Platinum made Shen Sui's heart beat fast.
Shen Sui then asked, "Big Sister, can I touch Little Platinum?"
Xie Wanyu was struggling with the roasted chicken. Upon hearing this, she glanced at Little Platinum and said, "Well, but you'd better feed it something."
When Xie Wanyu said this, Chen Sui understood. No wonder he was so obedient. It turned out that he wanted the roast chicken in her hand.
So Chen Sui generously tore off a roasted chicken leg and threw it to Xiao Baijin, imitating what Shen Xinglan had done before. Xiao Baijin immediately ate the roasted chicken leg thrown by Chen Sui, and then happily nudged Chen Sui's arm with its head.
Chen Sui was also very happy. The girl narrowed her eyes and stretched out her oil-free hand to touch the little platinum's fur.
Ah, Chen Sui thought obsessively, the tiger's fur is indeed very nice to touch, she also wants to contract a tiger spirit beast!
At this time, Shen Xinglan stood up and said, "Then Senior Sister, I will go back first."
Xie Wanyu nodded and then dropped two words.
"ASAP."
Shen Xinglan left in a hurry. Chen Sui asked Xie Wanyu curiously, "Sister, why did Senior Brother leave in such a hurry?"
"Alchemy." Xie Wanyu said concisely.
Chen Sui was surprised and asked: "But isn't Second Senior Brother a sword cultivator?" She still remembered that when she first met Shen Xinglan, Shen Xinglan was practicing sword cultivation.
Xie Wanyu: "...Our sect's disciples have always been multi-talented."
Chen Sui suddenly realized that the disciples of Xuantian Sect liked to have side jobs. No wonder Xuantian Sect gave out forty sets of disciple uniforms. It turned out that for the disciples of Xuantian Sect, wearing the uniforms of other sects was simply no pressure at all.
"Then what can Senior Sister do?" Chen Sui tilted his head and looked at Xie Wanyu.
Xie Wanyu looked away awkwardly: "I'm a swordsman. I only know the basics of the other things."
Chen Sui did not delve into the topic any further. She said enthusiastically, "Big Sister, since you are free now, why don't you teach me how to draw the Qi into my body?"
Xie Wanyu nodded.
"First, close your eyes and take a deep breath. Then, feel the breath in your abdomen. Don't be nervous. Try to eliminate all distracting thoughts in your mind. Then, guide this breath slowly into your internal organs and meridians."
This was the first time Xie Wanyu spoke such a long speech, and Chen Sui listened very carefully. Then, following what Xie Wanyu said, he began to try to draw the Qi into his body.
Soon, Shen Sui felt his whole body become lighter.
After a while, Chen Sui slowly exhaled a breath of foul air. She opened her eyes, and the most direct impact was the scene in front of her. Her field of vision not only became clearer, but also became wider. Her ears also heard a rustling sound from the bamboo forest not far away, which she had never heard before.
"Congratulations, you have reached the first level of Qi Refining." Xie Wanyu's eyes did not change at all.
Chen Sui: “???” So simple?!
As if seeing what Chen Sui was thinking, Xie Wanyu explained, "Given your talent, cultivation will definitely be smoother than others, but the further you go, the more difficult the barriers you will face."
Chen Sui understood. Doesn't this mean that it will be easy for her to go from the first level of Qi Refining to the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, but it will not be easy for her to go from the Great Perfection of Qi Refining to the first level of Foundation Establishment.
Chen Sui said solemnly, "I'd rather die."
Xie Wanyu: “?”
Chen Sui sighed: "Senior Sister, I followed what you just said and imagined my entire life as an immortal in my mind. The conclusion is that I feel that living is more painful than dying."
Xie Wanyu: “…”
She was sure that this new junior sister's thinking seemed to be a bit abnormal.
"Let me take you home first. It's not good to stay outside so late." Xie Wanyu said.
"Okay." Shen Sui agreed happily.
After arriving at Shen Sui's thatched cottage, Shen Sui waved to Xie Wanyu: "Good night, Senior Sister."
Xie Wanyu suddenly remembered something: "Oh, by the way, tomorrow's class starts at nine o'clock in the morning, and there is a teleportation array that Master drew behind the house."
Shen Sui said happily: "Thank you, Senior Sister."
She was still worried about how to get to class tomorrow. With her current level of Qi Refining, she probably wouldn't be able to reach the class even if she hiked from Xuanqing Peak for a day and a night.
Xie Wanyu nodded, turned around and left with Xiao Baijin. Chen Sui watched Xie Wanyu's figure disappear in the setting sun before entering his thatched hut.
The first thing she did was to take out the gift Xie Wanyu gave her from the mustard bracelet, which was a box made of thousand-year-old dragon green wood.
Shen Sui carefully placed the wooden box on the table, then rubbed her hands. She wondered what treasure her senior sister would give her.
Chen Sui opened the wooden box with great anticipation, and saw a green brush lying inside.
A green...brush?
Chen Sui was stunned. What did it mean that her senior sister gave her, the future sword cultivation genius, a brush?
Suddenly, Chen Sui had an idea and remembered what his senior sister said when they were having a friendly exchange of feelings.
"The disciples of our sect have always been multi-talented."
Chen Sui felt that she had figured it out. It seemed that this brush was her senior sister's way of testing her ability to become a qualified Xuantian Sect disciple!
