The Red Dust Palace.
The golden sun is shining brightly, illuminating all directions. It is already noon.
Zhou Chen's thick and long eyelashes trembled slightly, and he opened his lazy and sleepy eyes.
The first thing that catches your eye is a sea of snow, like the great snow-capped mountains of the Himalayas, with ravines crisscrossing and bottomless.
Raising her head slightly, Yu Youwei wrapped her white and tender arms around the back of Zhou Chen's head, looking at him lovingly.
A pair of beautiful eyes, black and bright like gems, have a mysterious and fascinating charm that seems eternal.
"Sir, you are awake. I will help you get up."
Yu Youwei opened her red lips and uttered a pleasant and soft voice, clear and sweet, and was about to get up to help Zhou Chen change his clothes.
"No hurry, eat first!"
Zhou Chen smiled slightly and glanced away.
The white arc and two bright red spots that came into his eyes made him dizzy.
"Sir."
Yu Youwei held Zhou Chen's white and tender arms tightly around the back of his head.
Zhou Chen suddenly felt suffocated and couldn't breathe.
That's the smell of facial cleanser.
I don’t know how long it was, but there was a knock on the door.
"Master, Senior Sister Changhen is here and said she has a mission for you!"
Zhao Shirong's calm voice came.
"Got it. Treat Senior Sister well. I'll be there soon!"
Zhou Chen ate his milk breakfast with relish and got up.
Yu Youwei helped Zhou Chen change his clothes.
At this moment, her eyes were a little dazed, her pretty face was flushed with beads of sweat, and a few strands of hair were stuck to her face. Compared with her usual tranquility, she looked three points more charming and enchanting.
After a simple wash, Zhou Chen came to the hall. Qin Hongyu, Zhao Shirong and others were there, and Li Changhen sat quietly beside them sipping tea.
"Master sister, what brings you here? You are such a rare guest!"
Zhou Chen walked in and said enthusiastically.
"What else could it be?"
Li Changhen glanced at Zhou Chen and knew that this guy had just climbed up from the woman, and sneered:
"Of course it's Junior Brother's Spring Breeze!"
"Who has offended Senior Sister? I'll help Senior Sister beat him up."
Zhou Chen sat next to Li Changhen and smiled.
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Li Changhen glared at Zhou Chen and casually threw him a transfer order: "The headmaster wants you to guard the Hexian gold mine for two months!"
"Why are you suddenly asking me to guard the gold mine?"
Zhou Chen was a little confused. According to what he knew, people like him generally didn't have any missions, and their biggest mission was to practice.
"What do you think?"
Li Changhen rolled his eyes at Zhou Chen in annoyance: "You performed well at the True Transmission Ceremony, and you made an appearance and caught the attention of the Sect Leader. But look at what you have been doing recently. It's obvious that the Sect Leader thinks you are too idle, so he wants to find something for you to do."
"Senior Sister, this is really unfair. I have been practicing hard, okay?"
Zhou Chen looked aggrieved and cried.
"Work hard on your cultivation?"
Li Changhen was amused. He didn't expect that there would be such a shameless person in the world.
"You are practicing in a gentle place?"
"Sister, you don't know this. There are three thousand great ways, but they all lead to the same destination. Whether it's the martial arts or the immortal path, cultivating the body is important, but cultivating the mind is more important."
"I am cultivating my mind in this worldly world, cultivating my body and mind."
"To practice Taoism, one must first enter the Tao, then practice Taoism, and then realize Taoism. Otherwise, how could I have comprehended the power of the arrow so quickly and mastered the moon-flying skill?"
Li Changhen frowned and thought, it seemed to make sense, but he felt something was wrong...
And Zhou Chen, who entered the Tao, practiced the Tao, and realized the Tao...
Is his Tao right? Is it the Tao they practice? "Anyway, the transfer order has been issued. We can't ask the headmaster to take it back. It's not easy for the master to plead for you. Besides, if you are asked to guard the gold mine for two months, it's just to change your place and stay for two months!"
"I don't know whether what you said is true or not. I will tell Master about your words, but no matter what, strength will speak for itself in the end!"
"Where there are people, there are conflicts. Qingyun Sect is such a big sect, so the competition is fierce. There are many people who want your place as a true disciple."
"The Hexian gold mine is guarded by Elder Jin. You are just going there for the formalities. This is a reminder from the headmaster, a small punishment for you."
"You're on your own!"
"Thank you, Senior Sister. I understand!"
Seeing Li Changhen getting up to leave, Zhou Chen hurried to see him off. He knew that Li Changhen was tough on the outside but soft on the inside and was still nice to him.
But there was nothing he could do.
If he doesn't work hard, how can his cultivation speed be improved? But the harder he works, the more others think he is wasting his time.
It's so difficult! Zhou Chen shook his head, but didn't care. Anyway, as long as he defeated those inner disciples who wanted to challenge him in a year, he would be able to suppress all the voices.
If he has no strength and is defeated by the inner disciples, then he is just lustful, decadent, unambitious, and a hopeless case.
But if he has the ability to defeat those who challenge him, then he will be a romantic and unrestrained idol envied by countless people.
"Brother Chen, have you been punished by the Sect Master?"
Qin Hongyu was a little worried, because the head of the sect was a very important figure to her.
"Don't worry, it's nothing!"
Zhou Chen smiled and rubbed Qin Hongyu's head:
"Although my current performance does not give the master a good impression, as long as I have enough strength, the master will not mind."
"Just like before the True Transmission Ceremony, the Sect Master definitely had a bad impression of me, but when I demonstrated my archery prowess at the True Transmission Ceremony, the Sect Master looked at me differently. Otherwise, he wouldn't have paid so much attention to me."
Zhou Chen did not mean to blame Qing Yuyao. The other party had asked Shi Qingxuan to remind him before, and now he was just asked to guard the He County gold mine for two months, which was not a punishment.
It was obviously all for his own good.
It’s just that his cultivation is special and hard to explain.
We can only speak with strength in the future.
"The transfer order requires me to report to the Hexian Gold Mine within three days. This time I will be gone for two months. I will take Shi Rong with me. You should practice well at home!"
Zhou Chen gave all the pills he didn't need to Qin Hongyu, Li Qingxia and others, and then spent a crazy day with them.
In the afternoon.
Zhou Chen looked at Li Qingxia, Gu Qiu Shui and Yu Youwei who were lying on the bed with their arms and legs spread out, then looked at Qin Hongyu who was sleeping with him in her arms, and quietly got up.
"Young Master!"
Zhao Shirong had already packed his luggage and was waiting for Zhou Chen.
In fact, they don’t need to pack much, as they all have storage bags. Valuable things are usually placed in the storage bags and carried with them.
"Let's go!"
Zhou Chen and Zhao Shirong rode a dragon horse down the Shenjian Peak and left Qingyun Sect.
[Romance Points +1]
[Romance Points +1]
Holding Zhao Shirong while riding a horse can also gain a lot of romantic points.
The time on the road is not wasted.
“I’m trying so hard!”
Zhou Chen was almost moved by himself.
"Shi Rong, go to the inn and rest for a night. We will set off for He County tomorrow morning."
Arriving at Qingyun City, Zhou Chen gave instructions.
"Okay, sir!"
Zhao Shirong didn't ask any more questions. She had already guessed that Zhou Chen was going to look for Fairy Tianxiang from Tianxian Tower.
Zhao Shirong entered the inn and Zhou Chen went to Tianxian Tower.
"This little guy is really romantic!"
A beautiful woman who had followed Zhou Chen all the way from Shenjian Peak looked at Zhou Chen entering Tianxian Tower from afar with a charming smile on her lips.
