Junior Sister is too competitive, she drastically alters the Joyful Union Sect.

Chapter 138 Giving Pills

When Shen Youqing heard that he would be playing a best-of-three series against Shen Qiuluo, he immediately frowned.

Seeing the disgust and resistance on Shen Youqing's face, Shen Quelin, who was standing next to her, raised his hand and patted her back, silently soothing her emotions.

After Meng Qinian finished speaking, Shen Youqing raised his hand and asked, "Elder Meng, what if I can break through to the Golden Core stage within half a year?"

“Then let’s compete in a way that’s above the Golden Core stage.” After Meng Qinian finished speaking, he said sternly, “Perhaps you really have the talent and opportunity, but breaking through too quickly will lead to an unstable foundation. Don’t joke around with your path of cultivation.”

Shen Youqing responded, her lowered eyelids concealing the color in her eyes.

With her talent and resources, breaking through to the Golden Core stage within six months is entirely within her reach.

In short, as long as there is even a sliver of hope of breaking through to the Golden Core stage, she will give it her all.

“The next three months will be spent on training outside. Since Shen Youqing and Shen Qiu are not yet at the Golden Core stage, they are not capable of training alone, so they need someone to accompany them,” Meng Qinian said.

"The decision will be made by drawing lots." Meng Qinian raised his hand and waved, and a bamboo tube appeared before him.

Yue Xunzhu bowed to Meng Qinian and said in a gentle and elegant tone, "Elder Meng, I only wish to accompany Jinjin on her training. Could you please separate the two of them?"

Yue Xunzhu's words drew unanimous agreement from the disciples of the Hehuan Sect and Lingxiao Sect.

Let them train with Shen Qiuluo, or better yet, let them not train together!

Feeling humiliated, Shen Qiulu clenched her hands tightly, her eyes dark and brooding.

She will remember this humiliation!

Seeing this, Meng Qinian could only divide the bamboo tubes into two: one for Shen Youqing and one for Shen Qiuluo.

Upholding the bond of fellow disciples, Jiang Chenying and the other four went to draw lots first, but Xie Changyan only drew a bamboo stick from Shen Youqing's bamboo tube.

Seeing this, Elder Meng did not say anything.

Xie Changyan must have his reasons for doing this.

Seeing Xie Changyan's actions, Shen Qiuluo's already extremely bad mental state almost collapsed. She turned her head to look at Shen Youqing, her eyes filled with jealousy and resentment.

It must have been that slut Shen Youqing who said something to my second senior brother!
Shen Youqing rolled his eyes in return.

He can't beat them in a fight, and he can't win an argument with them; he's just a clown!

"Elder Meng." Jiang Chenying's cold voice rang out as he handed Meng Qinian a bamboo slip engraved with Shen Youqing's name.

Elder Meng took the bamboo stick and then calmly and authoritatively said, "Shen Youqing, you will go on this training trip with Jiang Chenying."

???

Shen Quelin and the others suddenly looked at Jiang Chenying.

No, they didn't draw lots!
If this weren't the Azure Jade Sect, they would suspect there might be something fishy going on!
"I'm a little worried about you." Shen Quelin looked at Shen Youqing seriously and said in a low voice, "Should I ask Elder Meng if we can find someone else?"

Shen Youqing waved his hand, "It's okay, it makes no difference to me."

As long as it's not one of those cunning young masters from powerful families who are more scheming than lotus roots, it doesn't matter who it is.

"His luck is really good." Lin Youran said with some envy, then hugged Shen Youqing's arm, "Sigh~ My dream of training with my junior sister is shattered again."

Shen Youqing smiled at Lin Youran.

"Third Senior Sister, there will be opportunities in the future," Shen Youqing said with a smile.

Since Shen Youqing has already been drawn by Jiang Chenying, only Shen Qiuluo remains.

Liang Shimu and his group surrounded Shen Youqing, expressing their regrets, showing no intention of drawing lots.

Disciples from the Five Elements Sect and the Azure Dragon Sword Sect went to draw lots one after another.

Finally, it was Lu Ye from the Five Elements Sect who drew the card.

After the draw, Meng Qinian gave them some brief instructions and then gave them at most three days to rest. After three days, they had to go down the mountain to train, no matter what. After Meng Qinian left, Shen Youqing was called back by Jiang Chenying.

"Is there any training ground you'd like to go to?" A cold, emotionless voice rang out.

Looking at Jiang Chenying, who seemed to be sculpted from ice, Shen Youqing thought seriously for a moment, and finally shook his head, "No."

"Let me know if you have any ideas," Jiang Chenying said before leaving.

Shen Youqing turned to look at Shen Quelin and Yue Xunzhu, clearly wanting them to help her choose.

“If you really want to form your core, then go to the Crimson Feather Mountains for training,” Yue Xunzhu said gently. “The Nine Dreams Forest and the Sunny Rain Swamp are also good options; these are all good places for training.”

"Thank you, brother!" Shen Youqing said, then prepared to go back and pack his things.

Shen Quelin reached out and pulled Shen Youqing over, his narrow eyes full of cunning. "Wait!"

Shen Youqing looked at Shen Quelin, who was trying to do something bad, with a puzzled expression.

Shen Quelin glanced around, then pulled Shen Youqing back into the courtyard for a private conversation.

After the conversation ended, Shen Youqing silently gave Shen Quelin a thumbs up.

When Xiao Ke and the others came in, they saw the brother and sister laughing happily.

"Youqing," Xiao Ke called out. When Shen Youqing turned his head to look at him, he said, "I have something to tell you."

Looking at the serious and clear-headed man, Shen Youqing had no doubts.

Once inside, Xiao Ke closed the door and handed over a beautiful storage ring.

Under Shen Youqing's surprised and reluctant gaze, Xiao Ke's clear voice spoke slowly and deliberately, "The Yue family's 'Ten Thousand Life Technique' is domineering. When you are tempering your body, using only the Marrow Cleansing Pill and the Foundation Strengthening Pill is too simplistic. I have refined some pills according to your situation. The detailed instructions for taking the pills are all marked in the instructions."

Shen Youqing couldn't find a reason to refuse, so she reached out and took the storage ring.

Playing with the storage ring in her hand, Shen Youqing's eyes, slightly lowered, held a complex expression.

To be honest, she didn't know much about Xiao Ke.

She had only heard about Xiao Ke's alchemy skills from her third senior sister. According to her third senior sister, Xiao Ke's alchemy skills... were not very good.

Seeing the complicated and conflicted look on Shen Youqing's face, Xiao Ke said, "Ask whatever you want."

"Your alchemy skills..." Shen Youqing paused, then said, "Senior brother, I'm not doubting you, I'm just curious."

Xiao Ke nodded knowingly.

"There's more to the story about the cauldron exploding during the Five Sects Assembly while refining the Grade Three Heart-Clearing Pill. I'll tell you when I get back." Xiao Ke's fingers, hanging by his side, curled slightly, as if he was trying to control himself.

Shen Youqing responded, "Then it seems that Senior Brother's alchemy skills are not bad?"

“You could say that.” Xiao Ke reached out, grabbed Shen Youqing’s arm, and pulled him into his arms.

"..." Shen Youqing's lips twitched slightly. "Is it appropriate?"

We're talking about serious business!
"What's inappropriate?" Xiao Ke tightened his arms around him. "We might not see each other for the next three months, and I can't even hug you?"

He knew that Shen Youqing wanted to take this opportunity to train and break through to the Golden Core stage, so he couldn't hold him back.

He needs to take this opportunity to hone his skills and improve his weak practical experience.

Shen Youqing raised his hand and pulled Xiao Ke's arm away, saying seriously, "Take advantage of this time to accumulate more practical experience. Don't slack off on physical training. I will check when you come back."

Xiao Ke responded, but he didn't reach out to hug Shen Youqing again. Instead, he opened the door and let her go back to pack her things.

The most important thing right now is to become stronger. It's not just Shen Youqing who needs to become stronger; he also needs to become stronger.

The future is long, and they will have plenty of time.
