The first time He Jingjing visited the "Qingxin" bar, she was captivated by the atmosphere and food. That same day, she and Wen Ziqing flirted in public, humiliating Zhou Yuanyuan. This only solidified He Jingjing's impression of the bar. Whenever Yun Shang called to invite her out, He Jingjing would run away faster than anyone else.
However, today it was not Yun Shang who made an appointment with He Jingjing, but He Jingjing who came to Yun Shang herself.
He Jingjing had a few bottles of medicinal pills to sell, but unfortunately she had no connections. Thinking that Yun Shang might need her "fragrant" and "high-end" elixirs, she came to her.
"It's not mine. I'm just working for the boss." Yun Shang chatted with He Jingjing with a smile. Yun Shang was trying to establish a relationship with He Jingjing because she was impressed by Wen Ziqing's ability. When He Jingjing first came to the bar, she came with Wen Ziqing. Wen Ziqing was in a state of mental instability at the time, and his aura was not well controlled, which is how Yun Shang discovered his identity as a cultivator.
The various strongholds of the Loose Cultivator Alliance in the secular world are not only responsible for making money and collecting various cultivation materials, but also have a more important task: to attract more high-level cultivators to join the Loose Cultivator Alliance.
Yun Shang has always been on good terms with He Jingjing, and she wants to win over Wen Ziqing through He Jingjing.
Yunchang tried several times to invite Wen Ziqing to the bar for a detailed discussion through He Jingjing, but He Jingjing never did it once.
Yunchang is giving up on He Jingjing and looking for other solutions.
Today, He Jingjing came to the door and said that she had some elixirs to sell.
Yun Shang was overjoyed. Pills! The Lord had always emphasized that no matter what kind of pills, as long as someone was willing to give, the Cultivation Alliance would take as many as they could. Most of the elixirs in the cultivation world came from the Yushan Sect. After falling out with the Yushan Sect, the biggest problem facing the Loose Cultivator Alliance was a lack of available pills.
He Jingjing stole these bottles of pills from the main hall of the Yushan Sect's Xiaoyao Peak.
Somehow, He Jingjing discovered she had a special connection to the sect leader, Liu Jingyu. Whenever she tried to understand what Liu Jingyu was doing, fragments of it would appear in her mind. Unaware that a vestige of Ling Xiaotian's spirit resided within her, He Jingjing believed it was a special ability.
Through her special intuition for "Liu Jingyu," He Jingjing discovered many of his secrets, including how he used the female cultivators as cauldrons for his cultivation. Watching them transform from beauty to cadaver in just a few days, He Jingjing became terrified and begged Wen Ziqing to help her escape.
After arriving in Kyoto, He Jingjing thought she was safe. Unexpectedly, He Shumin had died early, and the He family was torn apart. No one wanted to care for He Jingjing, an "orphan." He Jingjing was penniless, so she wanted to trade the pills for some money.
When He Jingjing "stole" the elixirs, she had her own thoughts. She had personally seen Liu Jingyu use these elixirs on female cultivators, and even if the female cultivators who had consumed the elixirs were consumed to death by Liu Jingyu, they remained devoted to him.
There were three bottles of pills, each containing three pills. He Jingjing kept one of each and sold the others to the "Qingxin" bar.
After explaining to Yun Shang how to use the elixir, He Jingjing received a passbook with 60,000 yuan in it and left happily.
He Jingjing was very happy. This was the first time in her two lives that she had made money! With this money, she believed that her future life would get better and better.
Yun Shang was also delighted. She had almost misjudged He Jingjing. Although her abilities were limited, she knew a great deal. As long as she reported this to the Lord, it wouldn't be long before she, Yun Shang, became a numbered figure in the Loose Cultivator Alliance.
Let’s not talk about Yun Shang and He Jingjing’s respective plans, let’s talk about Chen Sanjiang first.
In a few breaths, Chen Sanjiang arrived at the foot of Jiyun Mountain. Looking at the towering green mountains before him, Chen Sanjiang took a deep breath. What a great place! It really is a great place. Even the richness of the spiritual energy in the air is not much different from that of the Langyuan Secret Realm.
Chen Sanjiang was sure that this was still the secular world, but he had never been here and didn't know what kind of world it was.
"Excuse me, Master, are you here to join us?" Chen Sanjiang didn't express his feelings for long before he was interrupted by the voice of a Taoist boy.
"Mingxin?" Chen Sanjiang was surprised. Mingxin was also a disciple of the Yushan Sect, and they were from the same sect. However, Chen Sanjiang was an inner sect disciple, while Mingxin was a clerk, the son of Lingyun Taoist Priest Lin Muchen.
"Uncle Chen? That's great! The Lord will surely be delighted to see you." Mingxin was also surprised. Why would an inner disciple of the Yushan Sect join the Loose Cultivator Alliance? Was there some hidden agenda involved?
"My lord, are you... Senior Brother Lin Muchen?" Seeing Mingxin, Chen Sanjiang had a bold guess in his mind.
"You'll know when you see Uncle Chen." This time, Mingxin didn't dare to say anything more and just said it vaguely.
When Mingxin brought Chen Sanjiang to the headquarters of the Loose Cultivator Alliance, Chen Sanjiang couldn't help but get excited when he saw Lin Muchen, who was still handsome and elegant.
"Brother Lin, is it really you? This is so wonderful!" Chen Sanjiang was so excited that tears came to his eyes. These past few years, Chen Sanjiang had been miserable! Helping others ended up in trouble. After finally recovering from his injuries and returning to the sect, he found that the sect had completely changed. Although Chen Sanjiang had never thought of "repaying a favor," Liu Jingyu treating him, his benefactor, as an enemy was something Chen Sanjiang could not tolerate.
"Wuwuwu... Senior Brother Lin, if I had known you were the leader of the Loose Cultivator Alliance, Sanjiang would have joined us long ago." Chen Sanjiang cried uncontrollably, for himself and for Lin Muchen. Rumors had long circulated within the sect that after Taoist Lingyun went into seclusion, Lin Muchen would be the next leader of the Yushan Sect. Lin Muchen was fair and just, rewarding merit and punishing fault. Chen Sanjiang was an honest and hardworking man. If Lin Muchen had been the leader, Chen Sanjiang felt he would not be in such a miserable state.
"Junior Brother Chen, please take a seat. It's hard to put this into words!" Lin Muchen sighed upon seeing Chen Sanjiang. Lin Muchen had never imagined he would one day leave the Yushan Sect. Initially, he had been directly ordered by the sect's elder, Daoyan Zhenjun, to take the pseudonym Lin Xiao and become the leader of the Loose Cultivator Alliance.
True Lord Daoyan's actions were a subtle move designed to unify the Yushan Sect's cultivation world. The elders of the Council of Elders had already agreed that Lin Muchen would succeed Taoist Lingyun as the new head of the Yushan Sect.
Unfortunately, Lin Muchen had just taken over the Loose Cultivator Alliance and before he had time to tell Taoist Lingyun about this matter, Taoist Lingyun got into trouble.
After Taoist Ling Yun "went astray", he issued an order to become the leader, appointing Liu Jingyu as the successor. Lin Muchen knew that there must be another reason behind Taoist Ling Yun's "going astray".
