There are intelligent people here.
Of course, not everyone thinks so.
"These girls... why are they all so silly?"
In the corner, Shi Qingjun held an umbrella, her eyelashes trembling slightly.
Even she felt hopeless, watching the girls from Muyu Peak playing in the puddles, getting wet, and going crazy under the heavy rain.
Is this what the people of Qing Province call Fairy Mu Yu?
Clearly, itâs just a group of crazy girls.
She tilted her head, her ears slightly inclined to the right, causing the ruby pendant on her ear to sway gently.
"However..."
Shi Qingjun narrowed her eyes as she looked at the umbrella in Xu Changâanâs hand, marked with Li Zhibaiâs symbol.
"He no longer recklessly uses a Spiritual Barrier to shield from the rain?"
Did Li Zhibai tell him something?
Yes, Zhibai is quite intelligent, not as wooden as he appears.
Shi Qingjun thought that Li Zhibai must have guessed the key points, such as the rain being made by Xu Changâan, or that the Celestial Tribulation had nothing to do with her as the Sect Leader.
Should I go and talk to Liâer?
Shi Qingjun gazed at the Sword Hall and then slowly shook her head.
Itâs not a secret, so it doesnât matter if Li Zhibai knows.
Actually, Shi Qingjun had more important and pressing matters at the moment.
Just now, Yun Qianâs beauty had caused a sensation throughout Muyu Peak. Many women said they saw different images emanating from her, deeply attracted by the kind of beauty and the strange scenes that could disturb the Sea of Consciousness.
But soon, everyone believed that Yun Qianâs ability to stir their Spirit Platform and become beautiful was because Xu Changâan was by her side.
This otherworldly feeling did not come from the girl named Yun Qian but from her identity as "Xu Changâanâs wife," something created by the couple together.
After all, Xu Changâan could ignore the Inner Realm, causing "true harm" to the spirits of the girls here; they had already experienced the wonder of the young man, so it was no surprise now.
Therefore, at this moment, a peculiar rumor spread among the circle.
It seemed that becoming Xu Changâanâs wife could make oneâs temperament, aura, and natural energies become attractive like that of Miss Yunâs after being influenced by him?
Naturally, Shi Qingjun, always keeping an eye on Xu Changâan, also noticed this rumor.
Moreover, she thought this rumor was not baseless and quite sensible.
A wife of an Immortal Reincarnation, having taken his Primordial Yang since childhoodânaturally, Yun Qian would be nurtured and nourished by the Immortalâs aura.
Therefore, marrying him could indeed make one beautiful.
Of course, Shi Qingjun didnât care whether she could become beautiful or not; now, awakened by Xu Changâanâs longing for life, she started to grow flowers and sail boats, simply intrigued by this young couple.
Very interesting.
Watching the Muyu Peak girls furtively peeking in tension, also very interesting.
"Clap, clap."
Shi Qingjun lightly patted her own face, throwing aside the "pleasurable" mischief.
Li Zhibai saw more clearly than she did.
Evidently, gifting Xu Changâan the umbrella indicated that Li Zhibai discovered Xu Changâanâs uniqueness but still chose to involve himself in his affairs.
Li Zhibai... didnât mind getting entangled with the karma of the Immortal Reincarnation.
Understandably, this is very dangerous.
Li Zhibai seemed to be helping Xu Changâan, but with Xu Changâanâs uniqueness, what appeared to be help might actually not be and could hinder his Refining Heart.
No matter what the exiled immortals in those stories came down for, similar stories are frequently found in ancient texts.
Li Zhibai had read many books and naturally understood the troubles involved yet still chose to intervene.
"I am not her equal." Shi Qingjun sighed.
Li Zhibaiâs firm mindset, if placed in her own position, no matter what, she wouldnât be tempted by breakthroughs and encounter a Heart Demon, leading to a significant two-part reduction of her cultivation.
Such a self could no longer suppress the Demon Sect.
The chaos in Qing Province was foreseeable.
Only hope... that her severely weakened condition could be concealed under the cover of the Celestial Tribulation and delay being discovered by the Demon Sect for a little longer.
However, now the Demon Sect should be like a startled bird, after all, the recent White Jade Purple Thunder Celestial Tribulation was too terrifying.
"..."
At this moment, Xu Changâan and Yun Qian passed by Shi Qingjun arm in arm, Xu Changâan fully preoccupied with entertaining Li Zhibai and not noticing this Senior Sister Shi.
However, Yun Qian turned her head to look at her and then withdrew her gaze, disappearing down the path with Xu Changâan.
"Up close... this Miss Yun is truly beautiful." Shi Qingjun was somewhat moved by Yun Qianâs appearance but soon squinted her eyes, muttering, "Could it be... this Miss Yun is his tribulation for training?"
Oh well, whether itâs a tribulation or not, she couldnât figure it out.
Itâs all from books; who has really seen an exiled immortal, isnât it just imagination?
Thatâs another story.
The world is really getting stranger and stranger.
Exiled immortals only exist in legends; no one has seen them in reality.
Immortal-grade talent, on the other hand, is documented in detail, such as each generation of immortal-grade talents possessing the highest inspiration, photographic memory, extraordinary comprehension, achieving subtlety without cultivation, and protection by Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, etc., etc.
Blown out of proportion.
But in reality, anyway, Shi Qingjun had fought her way through the cultivation realm and had never seen immortal-grade talent.
In her time, no immortal-grade was born.
Now...
There is an exiled immortal.
An immortal-grade talent has also emerged.
"Zhuâer really has a knack for picking people." Shi Qingjun said, gazing at a tall and short figure approaching from afar, her eyes narrowing considerably.
At this moment, the rain continued to fall.
The downpour caused the babbling streams to overflow, creating crisscrossing small rivulets on the ground.
Liu Qingluo appeared on Muyu Peak under a simple oil-paper umbrella, while Gu Qiancheng walked beside her with a small red umbrella.
Liu Qingluo stepped her embroidered shoes over the fine rivulets on the ground, puzzled, asking Gu Qiancheng, "Why did my younger sister suddenly want to take a walk?"
"Hmm..."
Of course, Gu Qiancheng wouldnât tell Liu Qingluo that it was because Xu Changâan and Yun Qian had appeared.
If she told her, Sister Liu would behave like a startled little rabbit, running away as far as she could.
Gu Qiancheng thought she just wanted to see her "Mother in the Dream," without any bad intentions.
"Just taking a walk, sister. Since you will be living on Muyu Peak from now on, getting familiar with it... is always good," Gu Qiancheng explained.
"Hmm." Liu Qingluo nodded.
Gu Qiancheng, seeing Liu Qingluo not probing further, giggled and accelerated forward.
The bell on her body jingled, filled with happiness at the thought of meeting Yun Qian. Unable to help it, she twirled the small red umbrella in her hand, scattering rain around her with a pitter-patter.
Thus, the spun rainwater was sprayed upon Shi Qingjun at the roadside.
Shi Qingjun: "..."
"Oh!" Gu Qiancheng noticed her mistake and immediately walked over, offering a handkerchief apologetically, "Iâm sorry, sister, I didnât mean it."
Liu Qingluo also bowed slightly to Shi Qingjun.
"Itâs alright." Shi Qingjun shook her head, cast a glance at Liu Qingluo, and then shifted her gaze away.
Indeed...
She had only cultivated for less than half an hour and skipped past the Qi Refining Realm, directly becoming an Open Source.
With her precision, she could easily see Liu Qingluoâs Lower Elixir Field had already been opened, even filled with Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, and she didnât need meditation, constantly cultivating even when walking.
Remarkable.
"Hmm... Huh?" Gu Qiancheng suddenly noticed something and circled Shi Qingjun twice, like a little red mushroom.
She was very curious.
Because Shi Qingjun was very good-looking, and she had a gentle, soft temperament, very much matching Gu Qianchengâs definition of a mother.
If she hadnât already met the more beautiful Yun Qian, she would definitely stick to Shi Qingjun.
So, even more curious.
This beautiful sister, even if she werenât from Muyu Peak, having seen her once, she would certainly remember; how could it be that... she had no impression at all?
"Sister does look a bit unfamiliar." Gu Qiancheng quizzically circled her.
