Jiang Zeqi quickly drew a formation with the little fox spirit brush and threw it at Jiang Wenjing.
"Oh, you clever imitator, you talk as if you have a lot of face. You can usually dry your clothes instantly after getting wet, so why is your spiritual power depleted again today when you see Master?"
Jiang Zeqi put all his usual belongings into the storage ring that Yun Lian had just given him.
While drawing the array, he suddenly noticed a pile of men's robes in the corner of his storage ring, and his expression changed drastically.
"Jiang Wenjing, have you checked what's inside the storage ring?"
Seeing his solemn expression, Jiang Wenjing immediately used his divine sense to scan the storage ring.
"Nothing unusual."
Jiang Ze, his face dark, pulled a set of clothes out of his ring.
"truce!"
"These clothes aren't our size!"
The clothes are made of high-quality material, unlike those produced in Xiaoyao City.
Jiang Wenjing frowned when he saw the men's robes that suddenly appeared.
Jiang Zeqi examined the robe for a long time, then suddenly threw it on the ground and stomped on it several times.
She cried out, almost in tears, "Brother, Master must have other disciples outside. No wonder she didn't take either of us with her when she came down the mountain this time."
Jiang Wenjing frowned and picked up the clothes to compare with the sword Yun Lian had handed him.
His intuition told him that there must be a connection between the two.
"Don't cry. What if he's just a defeated opponent of Master, and the spoils of war that Master took after defeating him?"
Jiang Zeqi's nose even turned red from crying.
"How could that be? Brother, what if Master abandons us? She is highly skilled in martial arts and beautiful. If it weren't for raising us brothers all these years, she would probably have found a suitable partner long ago."
Do you think Master might…?
Jiang Wenjing's breathing became chaotic whenever she thought of her extremely gentle master reciprocating that gentleness to someone else.
With a dark expression, he tried to calm his breathing until his spiritual energy stopped surging before speaking: "No, no one is worthy of Master."

Yun Lian returned to her small bamboo house. The house was simply furnished, with a vase of vibrant peonies on the bamboo table, adding a touch of life to the room.
After using the Breakthrough Pill, one's cultivation level increases dramatically, but this is followed by a sharp drop in cultivation level.
Yun Lian's cultivation level has dropped from the mid-Foundation Establishment stage to the early-Foundation Establishment stage.
Yun Lian dripped blood onto the small black stone, and instantly the black shell on the stone fell off, revealing a seven-colored light.
In just a moment, Yun Lian felt warm all over, and even the true energy in her body was twice as powerful as usual.
Yun Lian felt a surge of heat in her chest and quickly sat down to practice the cultivation incantation.
A vast amount of spiritual energy surged into Yun Lian's body as if it were free.
Early Foundation Establishment, Middle Foundation Establishment, Late Foundation Establishment, Core Formation! Middle Golden Core!
He broke through five levels in one go!
By the time Yun Lian came to her senses, two days and one night had passed.
At this moment, Yun Lian could hear what the people in front of her were discussing, if she wanted to.
At this moment, Yun Lian can be described as having undergone a complete transformation.
Her skin was almost flawless, her hair was as black as ink, her red lips were luscious and beautiful, and her eyes were full of charm with every smile and frown.
Yun Lian smelled the stench emanating from her own body and rushed into the middle of the waterfall almost as fast as she could, letting the water wash over her.
Clean all the discharged impurities thoroughly.
When Yun Lian got ashore, she immediately saw her little apprentice squatting on the ground, looking at her expectantly.
The two brothers' eyes were filled with surprise and joy, and they shouted together.
"Congratulations on your breakthrough, Master!"
When Master Zuo broke through to the Golden Core stage, the terrifying pressure of the lightning tribulation could almost level the valley.
It also attracted many cultivators to watch from afar, but no one dared to get close.
They had all prepared Master Qi to withstand the tribulation of lightning, but to their utter surprise, the tribulation of lightning was all bark and no bite. When it came down from the sky, it was as thick as a river, but when it struck Master Qi, it was only as thin as a small snake.
The master didn't even blink, and the lightning snake entered his body.
The two were even more surprised to see that Yun Lian could fly without using a sword.
Master's cultivation seems to have become even more profound.
And every time they came up from under the waterfall, they had to climb stairs.
Yun Lian parted her red lips slightly, her voice as clear as if she were whispering in someone's ear.
"Tomorrow you two brothers will begin your seclusion, and I will protect you."
Jiang Wenjing and Jiang Zeqi became even more enthusiastic about cultivation at this time.
If they don't work harder, they won't even be qualified to stand before their master.
"yes!"
"I have acquired a new body tempering technique. You two brothers can try it out today."
The two looked at each other, their eyes filled with intense passion.
They felt that their master seemed different.
In the past, their master would only ask them to follow the rules and not stand out too much, and even went so far as to bring them to explore the secluded valley.
It was as if they were hiding from someone.
But after this trip down the mountain, Master's sharpness was fully revealed, as if he had become a completely different person.
They were full of confidence, as if they looked down on everyone except the two brothers.
"Thank you, Master!"
Time flies like an arrow, and a year has passed in the blink of an eye.
Time seemed to have been exceptionally kind to Yun Lian; apart from her face becoming more refined and her cultivation level becoming more profound, there were no other changes.
The wind whistled through the valley, but it didn't even stir the hem of her skirt.
In just one year, the two brothers grew up like bamboo shoots after a spring rain, both reaching a height of 1.9 meters.
It was as if two mountains stood before Yun Lian.
“That’s right. Zeqi has now reached the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, and Wen Jing has reached the late-Foundation Establishment stage. This sect selection is a foregone conclusion; you can enter whichever sect you want.”
During that year, Yun Lian spent most of her time in the Misty Forest, except when she was protecting them.
She caught most of the monsters below level six that were edible.
The defensive robe Jiang Wenjing is currently wearing is made from the hide of a level six demon beast, the Ink Shark, and can withstand three attacks from a Nascent Soul cultivator.
Jiang Zeqi's white jade hairpin was made from the spine of a level-six demon beast, the Thousand-Eyed Demon, and could bewitch a Nascent Soul cultivator for three seconds.
The remaining spine of the Thousand-Eyed Demon was crafted into a spirit sword named Thousand Eyes, which was Jiang Wenjing's original name sword.
Jiang Zeqi's outer robe was even more extraordinary; it was made of the skin of a winged evil spirit and could devour a cultivator's original spirit.
For two ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators, any one of these pieces of equipment, once exposed, would be fatal.
However, the Heaven-Covering Pill that Yun Lian fed to the two of them could withstand the prying eyes of those at the Nascent Soul stage, and almost no one could see through it.
On the mainland today, people with the Nascent Soul cultivation level can be counted on one hand.
Unfortunately, Yun Lian was also one of those people in that hand.
Throughout the year, Yun Lian, with her red whip and red robes, made almost every major sect aware of the powerful red-robed immortal.
The female protagonist's many adventures were almost all stolen by Yun Lian.
The two brothers possessed an unknown number of storage rings.
With their current wealth and power, they could easily establish their own sect.
As the brothers' cultivation improved, their admiration for Yun Lian deepened.
Jiang Zeqi clung to Yun Lian's leg, wailing pitifully.
"Master, I don't want to join a sect anymore. Let my senior brother join the Misty Sect to learn swordsmanship. How about I stay with you in the Hidden Valley?"
