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

Chapter 325 is just a minor issue.
at the same time.

Yiming Mountain.

After losing her innate sword bone, Shen Qiuluo actually benefited from the misfortune.

Because she could feel herself becoming more and more integrated with the Mysterious Maiden Diagram.

"Dong dong dong."

Shen Qiulu quickly finished her meditation, got up, and went to open the door.

Upon opening the door and seeing Zhang Youli standing outside, Shen Qiulu bowed respectfully and said, "Disciple greets Master."

Shen Qiulu was not surprised by Zhang Youli's arrival.

He must have come to ask how he and Qiaoyu got back.

Qiaoyu is an unreliable person, and besides, she really doesn't know how she got back.

Zhang Youli waved his hand, "How are your injuries?"

Shen Qiuluo's expression darkened considerably, but his tone remained respectful. "This disciple had his innate sword bone extracted. Although the pain has subsided, my cultivation has also dropped significantly, and... I'm afraid this disciple will no longer be able to become a sword cultivator."

"As long as you're willing to endure hardship, you can become a sword cultivator regardless of whether you have innate sword bones," Zhang Youli comforted him, then asked, "How did you and Qiaoyu get back?"

Shen Qiulu raised her hand in invitation, gesturing for Zhang Youli to move inside to speak.

Unsuspecting, Zhang Youli stepped over the threshold and went inside.

As the soundproof barrier rose, Shen Qiuluo took out a box and handed it over.

Zhang Youli took the box, opened it, and narrowed his eyes after seeing what was inside.

"Master, this disciple dares not deceive you." Shen Qiulu knelt on the ground with a 'plop'. "It was the Demon King Xi who rescued me and Qiaoyu!"

Zhao Lingxi?
Why did he save Shen Qiuluo and Qiaoyu?
Also, what's the deal with this half of naturally formed sword bone?
Shen Qiulu presented a letter with both hands, "This disciple is not quite sure what his identity is, but the Demon King Xi only said to give the letter and the box to Master."

Zhang Youli reached out and took the envelope, but did not rush to open it.

He slowly stroked the box, his eyes deep and his tone authoritative, "Do you know that the box contains a naturally born sword bone?"

Shen Qiuluo suddenly looked up, her eyes filled with shock and astonishment.

It seems she was completely unaware of this beforehand.

"This is half of your innate sword bone." Zhang Youli gestured for Shen Qiuluo to stop kneeling, then placed the box on the table for her to see.

Looking at the half-section of the naturally formed, white sword bone, Shen Qiuluo's eyes suddenly reddened.

“I also have the other half of your innate sword bone in my hands,” Zhang Youli said directly. “I will go back and ask the physician later to see if there is any way to put your innate sword bone back in place.”

Shen Qiulu's face went blank for a moment, as if she was overjoyed.

Zhang Youli gave Shen Qiuluo some time to calm down before asking, "Does the Demon King Xi have any message for you to convey?"

Shen Qiulu bowed and said, "The Demon King Xi said that what he wanted to say was all in the letter. Oh, and he also said that extracting the disciples' innate sword bones was a last resort."

Zhang Youli responded.

"Get some rest." After saying that, Zhang Youli took the box and the letter and left.

Shen Qiulu obediently escorted the person to the door, and once Zhang Youli's figure was out of sight, her eyes instantly darkened.

Zhao Lingxi was his junior brother who had been missing for many years!

Zhang Youli's attitude is far too calm!
I have no idea what that little bitch Shen Youqing said to Zhang Youli.

Thinking of this, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in Shen Qiuluo's eyes.

It would be best if Shen Youqing spoke ill of Zhao Lingxi in front of Zhang Youli, then their plan would be more than half successful!

After leaving Shen Qiuluo's residence, Zhang Youli returned to his own.

The envelope was unfolded, and familiar handwriting came into view.

—Dear senior, I hope this letter is well…

This letter, spanning several pages, detailed Zhao Lingxi's whereabouts over the years, why he fell into demonic possession, how he painstakingly climbed to become the Demon King, and how he cherished the teachings of the Qingyu Sect and never forgot them.

At the end of the letter, he mentioned his plans for the future. He hoped that Zhang Youli could trust him, and he wanted to join forces with Zhang Youli to destroy the cultivation world.

However, in the last few lines, Zhao Lingxi seemed to casually mention Shen Youqing's intimate behavior with the Demon Lord, hoping Zhang Youli would pay more attention. Zhang Youli placed the several large pages filled with writing on the table beside him.

Zhang Youli's inner thoughts were complex and chaotic.

He was disappointed and angry after learning from Shen Youqing that Zhao Lingxi had fallen into demonic possession.

This letter now seems to indicate that Zhao Lingxi's descent into demonic possession is to infiltrate the cultivation world as an undercover agent.

Should he believe it or not?
……

Yue family.

Knowing that Shen Youqing was injured, the group did not stay at Wanhua Courtyard for too long.

After seeing off this group of trusted disciples, Shen Youqing prepared to go to the back mountain.

Shen Quelin, who had nothing to do, went with her, ostensibly to escort her.

Upon reaching the back mountain area, Shen Quelin stopped outside the barrier, while Shen Youqing crossed the barrier and walked inside.

Under the evergreen tree.

Several ancestors were already waiting for Shen Youqing there.

"Come, come, let this old woman see how badly you're hurt," an elderly woman with white hair said with concern.

Before Shen Youqing could even bow and greet her, she was dragged away by several elders for an examination.

"The injury is quite serious." The old woman cupped Shen Youqing's cheeks in her warm hands and kneaded them. "You've lost weight."

"Don't worry, it's just a small problem." Another old woman patted Shen Youqing on the head. "We'll go back and get the medicine later. Come back in three days."

"I remember you're a little glutton and love to eat. These are some snacks I made myself. Take them home and enjoy them."

"Take this magical artifact for self-defense!"

"Take this! This! This! Take them all! You are the future of our Yue family!"

……

In less than half an hour, Shen Youqing came out from the back mountain.

Seeing Shen Youqing with at least one storage bag hanging from each of his ten fingers, Shen Quelin asked in surprise, "Did you go rob someone?"

Shen Youqing shouldn't be so heartless as to rob the Yue family's ancestor, right?

"..." Shen Youqing glared at him, then raised his hand to wipe the fine sweat from his forehead. "Our ancestors were just too hospitable!"

She was once worried that her ancestors had emptied out all their treasured possessions!

Seeing that Shen Youqing's hair was almost overflowing with magical ornaments, Shen Quelin was genuinely happy for her, "She is indeed very enthusiastic."

"Speaking of which, do our ancestors have a solution?" Shen Quelin's eyes revealed a hint of nervousness.

Shen Youqing shook her head, the hairpins and tassels in her hair jingling. "The ancestors told me to come back in three days."

Shen Quelin breathed a sigh of relief.

Any way will do!
However, looking at Shen Youqing, who resembled a hair accessory display stand, he couldn't help but chuckle.

It wasn't exactly ugly, but it was really funny.

"Shut up!" Shen Youqing said irritably. "So what if you have a few too many hairpins in your hair?"

She could feel her head getting heavy.

The love of our ancestors is a bit overwhelming.

"It's not that there's too much, it's that there's almost no room left!" Shen Quelin laughed as he ran away. "Shen Youqing, you're like one of those people who suddenly became rich and want to wear their entire fortune on their person!"

A cheerful and lighthearted laugh drifted through the air.

"Stop right there!" Shen Youqing roared with all his might, "I'm going to beat you into a pig's head today!"

"impossible!"

The brother and sister chased each other all the way to the entrance of Wanhua Courtyard.
