Holy City
At this moment, the spirit boat was extremely close to the Holy City, and the people on the spirit boat could feel that the spirit boat was rapidly descending.
Their gazes toward Lin Yu and Zhao Zhao were filled with envy. Being able to study under such talented geniuses would surely bring them a lot of support.
Who knows, in the future, when forming a team, they might take the initiative to invite this amazing genius.
Putting aside the thoughts of others, Ruan Qingyu never expected that the two cultivators she saved first were actually her fellow disciples.
Ruan Qingyu's smile immediately became more friendly. As the spirit boat slowly descended to the gate of Holy Realm City, the cultivators all walked out.
She followed beside the two and asked in a low voice, "Since you two are from the same sect, do you know where Daoist Qingchen of the Xuantian Sect is?"
Daoist Qingchen oversees the affairs of the Xuantian Sect in the Lesser Sacred Realm, and occasionally goes out to hunt demonic beasts. She originally intended to inquire with the disciple on duty, but Elder Jin intercepted her.
Meeting a fellow disciple now is the best thing ever.
When she asked about Daoist Qingchen, Lin Yu wasn't surprised, since Daoist Qingchen was a senior whom all the disciples admired.
“If nothing serious happens, Daoist Qingchen usually stays at the Xuantian Sect’s headquarters. You should be able to see him if you come back with us today.”
Compared to his time in the cultivation world, where he wasn't seen as often, he's become a regular sight in the Lesser Sacred Realm. After all, Sacred Realm City was built for war, and all its structures are designed for immediate combat.
Lin Yu praised Qingchen Daojun from top to bottom, and did not forget to recount Qingchen Daojun's recent impressive feats in hunting monster hordes, which were truly unforgettable.
"Daoist Qingchen is indeed formidable." Ruan Qingyu nodded with a smile, then changed the subject, "May I ask if I may go and pay my respects to Daoist Qingchen?"
Upon hearing Ruan Qingyu's question, Lin Yu couldn't help but look at Zhao Zhao, who had previously been an ordinary disciple. When it came to matters within the sect, Senior Sister Zhao Zhao was the one who knew more.
Sensing his junior sister's gaze, Zhao Zhao explained with a gentle smile, "If you wish to see Daoist Qingchen, there are naturally no requirements. Although new disciples often enter the Lesser Saint Realm, the number is not large. Daoist Qingchen is very kind to the disciples who can enter the Lesser Saint Realm."
Kind? Ruan Qingyu recalled the resources and greetings her master had given her several times. She wholeheartedly agreed with this assessment, but her master's appearance remained that of a young man, so describing him as kind was somewhat comical.
The crowd lined up and entered the Holy City. Ruan Qingyu followed behind Lin Yu and Zhao Zhao, and soon they arrived at the residence of the Xuan Tian Sect.
Hearing that she insisted on visiting Daoist Qingchen first, Lin Yu was worried and pulled Zhao Zhao along to follow her to the outside of Daoist Qingchen's palace.
Soon, a serving disciple came to inquire. Ruan Qingyu nodded slightly and took out her disciple token: "Please inform this senior brother that disciple Ruan Qingyu has come to pay respects to Master."
Master? Zhao Zhao, Lin Yu, and even the servant disciple who had routinely inquired were all stunned. The servant disciple quickly recovered and said, "Okay, I'll go and tell them right away."
Before the servants even entered the hall, a powerful voice boomed from within: "What kind of nonsense is it for a disciple to wait for personal instruction! Come in yourself!"
Ruan Qingyu pursed her lips, but couldn't help but smile.
"Yes, disciple will come in now." Without using telepathy, Ruan Qingyu spoke directly. She believed that her master could hear her no matter where he was.
Turning around, Ruan Qingyu looked at Zhao Zhao and Lin Yu and said with a smile, "Thank you both."
After speaking, she walked towards the hall. Her steps quickened unconsciously; she was filled with anticipation at the prospect of meeting her personal master.
During the construction of this grand hall, many large doors were deliberately added. At this moment, sunlight streamed in, and a young man with an unfathomable aura sat in the central seat.
Dressed in white, his sharp aura was so intense that it was impossible to look him in the eye. His indifferent gaze seemed to hold countless sharp swords.
When he looked at Ruan Qingyu, a hint of affection and a kindness that didn't match his appearance were revealed in his eyes.
"Not bad, he has the demeanor of my last disciple." Li Qingchen's lips twitched slightly. If Ruan Qingyu hadn't seen it clearly, she would have almost thought that her master had always been an ice block.
Compared to her own aloof demeanor, this master was truly indifferent. Silently mocking her master, Ruan Qingyu quickly bowed her head in respect.
The next moment, the other party reached out and helped him up: "No need for formalities. I originally thought that you would be thrown into the dense forest and would be stuck there for a long time. I didn't expect you to come out in just a few days. Not bad."
Thinking of how Ruan Qingyu had been thrown into the dense forest as soon as she entered the Lesser Saint Realm, Li Qingchen's eyes turned cold, and the table beside him instantly shattered into pieces.
Silently avoiding eye contact, Ruan Qingyu softened her voice and said, "Fortunately, the disciple has come out and gained quite a lot." As she spoke, she took out her token and waved it, revealing more than nine thousand points inside.
Li Qingchen glanced at her token and nodded slightly: "Not bad." As he spoke, he tapped his finger, and the score of over nine thousand points on it changed to three thousand nine thousand points.
Ruan Qingyu's hand holding the token trembled immediately: "Master, isn't this unreasonable?"
"Take it and use it. Consider it a gift for your entry into the Lesser Saint Realm," Li Qingchen said calmly, while tossing out a storage bag.
She skillfully took the storage bag and put the contents into her storage bracelet, which already contained more than a dozen such storage bags.
Instantly, the awkward atmosphere from seeing the real person vanished. Ruan Qingyu's face warmed, and she looked at Li Qingchen, saying, "Thank you for your care, Master. This disciple will certainly cultivate diligently!"
Seeing her obedient appearance, and then thinking of Mo Wen's old man image, his affection for Ruan Qingyu instantly far exceeded that for Mo Wen.
Mo Wen, far away at the Xuan Tian Sect, suddenly sneezed. He quickly took out the Qiankun Divination Tablet and calculated that there must be a reason for his sneezing!
"You've put your heart into it. You'll become my disciple, Daoist Qingchen. You don't have to be the most outstanding one, but your strength must be profound. If you have any questions about battles in the future, feel free to ask."
"Yes, Master." Ruan Qingyu smiled and said. At this moment, in front of Li Qingchen, she felt the feeling of being a junior for the first time in a long time.
After thinking for a moment, she still asked, "Master, I'm new here and I met a disciple on duty registering new disciples. I'd like to go to..."
Glancing at the increasingly obedient Ruan Qingyu, Li Qingchen said calmly, "I've already packed them up and sent them to the front-line teams to hunt down the outer monsters."
After a pause, Li Qingchen snorted coldly: "As for that Elder Jin, since we are both at the Mahayana stage, I would feel embarrassed to bully a junior. Of course, he would spar with me and then go back to his secluded cultivation."
To everyone's surprise, this was the result. Ruan Qingyu, unable to maintain her composed demeanor, couldn't help but laugh.
A moment later, Ruan Qingyu bowed solemnly to Li Qingchen and said, "Thank you for your care, Master!"
Unbeknownst to her, Li Qingchen only breathed a sigh of relief after seeing her completely relax. His own closed-door disciple had entered the Lesser Saint Realm and hadn't even come to him before being dealt with.
In Li Qingchen's eyes, this was a slap in the face, and he even wondered if his junior disciple would be angry when she returned. Now, seeing her so happy, Li Qingchen understood that she was satisfied with this solution.
"Go ahead. If you encounter something like this again in the future, just tell me." Li Qingchen's expression became more serious, and his gaze on Ruan Qingyu became more intense.
Sensing Li Qingchen's intentions, Ruan Qingyu smiled slightly and immediately replied, "Yes, I will follow Master's teachings!"
Upon exiting the main hall, Ruan Qingyu's token flashed, and soon a line of small characters appeared in mid-air. She looked closely and saw it was the information about the previously assigned teams.
Although I have already gone to the most dangerous area of the Lesser Sacred Realm, there must be places there suitable for cultivation and hunting magical beasts.
After a moment's hesitation, Ruan Qingyu quickly responded to the message on the token.
Half an hour later, Ruan Qingyu met her assigned team members at a small restaurant in Holy City.
The male cultivator at the front was thin, and his black robe made his already pale face appear even paler.
The three cultivators following behind the male cultivator were two male cultivators who looked similar, and a female cultivator dressed in a yellow robe.
Upon seeing a cultivator already seated at the agreed-upon spot, the group reacted with varying expressions. Some looked on in amazement, while others wore complex emotions.
Feeling the lingering stickiness on her body, Ruan Qingyu put down her teacup and looked straight back. She saw the leading male cultivator, whose previously gloomy face now wore a smile, turn around when he saw her looking at him.
"I had no idea that my team assigned me such a beautiful younger sister." The sinister male cultivator sat down at the table, and the three people traveling with him followed suit.
In an instant, the eyes of the four people opposite her all fell on her.
"Team 127 of the Yellow Army?" Ruan Qingyu looked at the sinister male cultivator with an unchanging expression, her voice calm.
Upon hearing the team's name, the sinister-looking male cultivator frowned and clenched his fist under the table.
“That’s right. My sister must be new here, otherwise she wouldn’t have been assigned to my team.” The sinister male cultivator looked Ruan Qingyu up and down, and found that he couldn’t see through her cultivation level for a moment. His face immediately stiffened.
He then said casually, "Today is the last day of the mission. Since you're here, I'll take you to see it."
Upon hearing this, the female cultivator who had been quietly observing from the side immediately chimed in, "We received news today that a newcomer was arriving, so our team rushed over right away."
Seeing that Ruan Qingyu remained silent, a hint of impatience flashed in the female cultivator's eyes: "We'll only know how to attack this demonic beast once we see it. Senior Brother Gao, why don't we set off now?"
Before anyone else could speak, Ruan Qingyu stood up and said, "I'm also very curious about what magical beasts look like. I haven't seen any since I arrived in the Little Holy Realm."
Upon hearing this, Gao Wenyuan forced a slightly warm smile onto his gloomy face and turned to grab Ruan Qingyu's wrist.
Ruan Qingyu, who was already on guard, immediately dodged away, her expression turning cold. Seeing her alertness, Gao Wenyuan's smile also faded.
"Then junior sister should keep a close eye on me." His tone had turned cold, completely unlike his previous gentleness.
The two men's subtle movements were noticed by the people behind them. The three male cultivators smiled knowingly, their lewd eyes flashing across their faces.
Wen Tingting's expression improved somewhat. She subtly stepped forward and squeezed Ruan Qingyu through the gap between the two. She hugged Wen Gaoyuan with her slender arms and said reproachfully, "Senior Brother Gao, you've seen the new junior sister and forgotten about me."
Someone threw themselves into his arms, and Wen Tingting's slender waist was embraced by Gao Wenyuan. He lowered his head and kissed the top of her head: "How could that be? I've always loved you. This newcomer is ignorant, and you're ignorant too?"
The four walked ahead on the left, with Ruan Qingyu following behind at a leisurely pace. From a distance, they didn't look like the same group at all.
Ruan Qingyu held the token at her waist in her hand; it flashed a few times before quickly quieting down.
