Saying that, Jiang Qingge also took out two newly purchased Communication Jade Tokens and handed one to Jiang Lingyue.

Jiang Lingyue curiously took it.

A moment later, after exchanging contact methods with Jiang Qingge, Jiang Lingyue's eyes twinkled slightly, and she turned to Lu Ye beside her and said.

"Brother-in-law, why don't we add each other too?"

Lu Ye said calmly, "No need."

"Just add her, she only knows a few people." Jiang Qingge advised from the side.

"Exactly, brother-in-law, you're so heartless. You weren't like this before." Jiang Lingyue winked at Lu Ye, stretched out her hand, and said, "Quick, take out your Communication Jade Token."

Lu Ye, a bit helpless, took out his Jade Token and tossed it to Jiang Lingyue.

"Silly brother-in-law, I'll often bother you in the future!"

...

A moment later, the carriage slowly drove away from the Jiang Family's gate.

Jiang Lingyue poked her head out and said, "Sister and brother-in-law, when you have time, you must come to see me!"

Watching the carriage gradually disappear, Jiang Qingge sighed and said, "Sigh, now that Lingyue has gone to Wuxiang Mountain, I suddenly feel a bit empty."

Hearing this, Lu Ye shook his head; he could understand this situation.

Having a sister who has accompanied you at home for nearly twenty years suddenly leave, with no fixed time of return — it might be half a year before she visits again.

Jiang Qingge was now considered a "stay-at-home" in the family.

"You can cultivate now as well. Once you reach the Postnatal Realm, going to Wuxiang Mountain will only take a day or two, and it'll be even faster at the Innate Realm." Lu Ye said blandly.

"It's not that easy. I feel my aptitude is just average." Jiang Qingge said with some distress, "I don't think I have much hope of reaching the Innate Realm."

Lu Ye smiled but didn't speak.

If she couldn't reach the Innate Realm later, then no one in the Northern Territory or Xuanzhou should be able to reach this realm.

...

In the following days, Jiang Qingge indeed immersed herself in cultivation.

On the third day, she generated Inner Qi...

"Lu Ye, I've reached the Second Layer of Condensing Origin!"

On the ninth day...

"Lu Ye... I think I've reached the Third Layer of Condensing Origin? Isn't my cultivation speed a bit off?"

In the room, Jiang Qingge was not pleased but rather concerned.

In less than ten days, she had broken through two realms, reaching the Third Layer of Condensing Origin.

This speed obviously didn't match her own estimate of "average aptitude."

Jiang Qingge was not afraid of slow cultivation but was afraid that she might be prematurely exhausting her potential, which would explain the abnormal progress.

"Don't worry, you're doing fine; just continue cultivating," Lu Ye said.

She was gradually breaking the seal; to be precise, Jiang Qingge was gradually "reclaiming" everything she once had.

Not to mention just this reclamation, even if the speed of advancement was even faster, it was within Lu Ye's expectations.

Hearing Lu Ye say that, Jiang Qingge felt a bit assured and continued her diligent cultivation.

Lu Ye, meanwhile, left the Jiang Mansion, planning to find Tian Qing, as there was a bit over a month left before the Eastern Territory gathering.

He planned to help Tian Qing in the meantime to enhance his inherited Celestial Spirit Sword Technique.

Since Lu Ye's Sword Dao reached a higher level, he could see the shortcomings in most low-tier sword techniques.

He would correct them with his understanding to elevate their power.

When Lu Ye arrived, Tian Qing was playing with a little girl a few years old, looking like an old man enjoying family bliss.

Seeing Lu Ye, he got up and said with a smile, "Young Master Lu, you've come?"

"I had some free time and came to visit," Lu Ye said, "How's your practice of the Celestial Spirit Sword Technique going?"

Upon hearing this, Tian Qing immediately understood that Young Master Lu had specifically come to guide him on his sword technique!

Whether it was the stunning sword on Yinmang Mountain or the previous spectacle on Yunlan River,

these were enough to showcase Young Master Lu's fearsome Sword Dao prowess in the Northern Territory!

For such a person to personally come to guide him made Tian Qing feel both flattered and surprised.

Moments later, the two had already darted out of Cloud Leaf City.

Because the city's confines were too small, any movement would easily draw attention, so it was more convenient outside the city.

In a clearing within a dense forest.

"Show me the Celestial Spirit Sword Technique you've mastered so far." Lu Ye said with his hands behind his back.

At once, Tian Qing earnestly began demonstrating one sword technique after another. He even felt that it was almost like facing his master back then.

When Tian Qing finished demonstrating the Celestial Spirit Sword Technique, Lu Ye immediately said, "Watch my sword techniques closely."

Tian Qing's old eyes widened bigger than eggs, fearing he might miss even the slightest detail.

When the sword light of the Celestial Spirit Sword Technique flickered again within the forest clearing, countless trees and plants around were cut neatly by the sharp Sword Qi!

This scene did not appear at all when Tian Qing used the Celestial Spirit Sword Technique just now!

"This is the gap brought by the Sword Dao Realm..." Tian Qing remarked, somewhat moved.

He could tell that Lu Ye had suppressed his power to the Innate Realm Third Layer to match his level.

Yet, the Celestial Spirit Sword Technique still displayed a different power.

The next second, Tian Qing's pupils suddenly contracted as Young Master Lu... changed his sword technique!

Is this a new understanding of the Celestial Spirit Sword Technique?!

...

"Young Master Lu, you... you've improved the Celestial Spirit Sword Technique?!"

When Lu Ye finished demonstrating the sword technique, Tian Qing's lips trembled slightly.

"I never expected, in my lifetime, to witness the Celestial Spirit Sword Technique reaching a higher level!"

Tian Qing felt that after Lu Ye's improvements, the Celestial Spirit Sword Technique might even ascend a rank!

This thought brought some regret to Tian Qing's heart. If the Tian Family Patriarch back then, as the main branch, hadn't focused on family power struggles, the Tian Family should be flourishing now.

Unfortunately, the Tian Family seems to be tangled with some people that are neither human nor ghost, from the Evil Dao.

No wonder Tian Xiong suddenly broke through to the Innate Realm.

Shaking his head, Tian Qing decided not to think too much about it. Since he had publicly declared his exit from the Tian Family, whatever direction the family's leaders took wasn't within his power to prevent.

He just hoped they wouldn't provoke him or get in Young Master Lu's way!

...

After teaching the Celestial Spirit Sword Technique to Tian Qing, Lu Ye let him leave first and looked at the seemingly empty forest, saying, "Stop hiding, why are you following me again."

Within moments, a figure emerged from somewhere, surprised, "Your perception is so extraordinary; I was very careful in concealing my aura."

The one who emerged was none other than the famous Youluo Sect Leader, a top Martial Arts Grandmaster Ninth Layer expert in the Northern Territory.

Suddenly, Lu Ye's eyes shifted as he said, "Since you're so bored, why not come along with me to do something?"

Youluo curiously asked, "What is it?"
