"No need to thank me, it's merely an ancient manuscript."

Fourth Elder furrowed his brows.

This person's temperament is ultimately inferior to Bai Li's.

A slight favor, and already expressing overwhelming gratitude, prostrating themselves fully...

However, a person who recognizes appreciation.

With this thought, she further advised:

"In ancient times, Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi was abundant, and Treasures of Heaven and Earth were everywhere. Cultivators valued the power of Cultivation Techniques, while neglecting their efficiency and difficulty. The Dry-Wet Mystical Light Sutra is a product of that era."

"It's very strong, undoubtedly. Yet its cultivation is extremely difficult, with immense consumption, far beyond ordinary techniques. This is why, though I possess it, it's always been stored away, never taught to sect disciples."

Chen Ye listened silently, actually perhaps more familiar with this technique than Fourth Elder.

Indeed, as Fourth Elder said, the Dry-Wet Mystical Light Sutra is a product of ancient times, naturally harder to cultivate than the current techniques, which have been improved by generations of cultivators.

In ancient times, it was easy to say, when the path of cultivation was just developing, and Treasures of Heaven and Earth were everywhere, even a random Spirit Flower placed in the current Yan Kingdom could cause havoc.

But now... after generations of cultivators madly extracting resources, today's Cultivation Realm no longer has so many resources for cultivators. Hence, Spirit Plant Cultivators, previously insignificant, gradually secured a place in the Cultivation Realm.

"But..."

Zhang Ruoxu shifted the topic,

"In all things, there are exceptions. You possess pseudo Five Elements Spiritual Roots, already the worst choice on the path of cultivation. Better to cultivate this Dry-Wet Mystical Light Sutra, perhaps a miracle might occur. You are also the supervisor of Lisong Valley, and presumably lack no cultivation resources..."

Uh...

The meaning from Fourth Elder is, since you're already as bad as pseudo Five Spiritual Roots, you might as well go further, and perhaps there's a chance for transformation.

Chen Ye secretly grumbled but knew that Fourth Elder spoke the truth, and meant well for him.

And Chen Ye has always been humble, immediately bowing and saying,

"Elder's kindness, disciple will never forget. Regardless of how rugged the road ahead may be, disciple will certainly strive with all might, and not disappoint the Elder's great expectations!"

"Just cultivate well."

Fourth Elder shook her head, not expecting a loose cultivator, already over middle age and still only at the Qi Cultivation Stage, to give any repayment in the future.

Actually, her gift had no special purpose, merely a casual reward.

Zhang Ruoxu said no more, she stepped out, her figure disappearing into the brilliant glow.

...

"Dry-Wet Mystical Light Sutra..."

After Fourth Elder left, Chen Ye sensed this profound cultivation technique in his mind.

He couldn't resist beginning to cultivate on the spot.

"Congratulations Brother Ye, for obtaining such an immortal fate."

Mao Qingzhu's voice came from beside him.

Although she was unaware of what kind of technique the Dry-Wet Mystical Light Sutra was, it was undoubtedly a high-class technique bestowed by a Golden Core True Man.

However,

She didn't expect Chen Ye to merely have Five Spiritual Roots!

He was able to reach his current position with Five Spiritual Roots, while also raising two disciples. It's unknown how much effort he has put in along the way.

Upon thinking of this,

Mao Qingzhu couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration.

"Perhaps... Sister Qingzhu spoke a lot of good words for me in front of Fourth Elder, right?"

Chen Ye said sincerely, though the Elder seemed indifferent, her actions showed a favorable impression of him.

He knew just a mere resemblance couldn't make a Golden Core True Man take a second look at him.

Unless someone had spoken well of him beforehand...

And since Mao Qingzhu was able to accompany Fourth Elder to Lisong Valley, their relationship must be good.

"Is... is that so?"

Mao Qingzhu was slightly stunned, not expecting Chen Ye to have guessed it.

Without pretending to hide it, she smiled lightly,

"I merely spoke the truth..."

After speaking, she realized a bit late that her words were somewhat inappropriate.

Didn't those words imply that Chen Ye's image in her mind is very good?

It seemed somewhat suggestive...

Chen Ye didn't think too much about it, just glanced at Mao Qingzhu who suddenly turned her head.

Feeling embarrassed?

Truly unlike her mother, Qing Jun is entirely a little troublemaker. If Qing Jun were here, she would say:

"Hmph! Master, what nonsense are you imagining? Qing Jun was just being polite to you, did you really take it seriously?"

Then she would stand with her little hands on her hips, squinting her eyes at him relentlessly.

Such a pesky little girl!

"Annoying Master!"

In a dark corner unknown to the two.

A little girl, soft and fair, wriggling like a silkworm pupa, biting her sleeve, glaring fiercely at her master.

Master is once again using sweet talk to deceive Aunt Mao!

Master is a big fool!

If he sweet-talked her, though it might make her angry... but she's just a little girl and helpless against her master, could only be deceived by him willingly.

But if he sweet-talks Aunt Mao and she gets mad, Master is doomed!

Stupid Master!

Ignoring such an innocent and adorable little girl, instead deceiving a woman who is already married!

Moreover... moreover... it's Aunt Mao!

What kind of sinister intentions does Master have, the little girl dared not even imagine.

"Shh..."

Zhiwei pressed a finger to her lips, hurriedly gesturing Qing Jun to be quieter.

Thanks to her Purity Glaze Body, the two girls weren't discovered by Chen Ye and the others. Since the Mist Forest ordeal, her physique further awakened, attuned to the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Power, with strong concealment abilities.

But this doesn't mean she can carry Qing Jun into invisibility!

However...

This physique, known as Purity Glaze Body, seems not bad either... this way, Master will never notice her gaze.
