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

Chapter 371 I should express my gratitude
Shen Youqing looked up at the sky, which was just beginning to lighten with the first hint of dawn, and after a moment, he grinned. "I knew I could escape!"

Shen Quelin released her and looked down at Shen Youqing, who was as dirty as a tabby cat. His expression softened instantly.

"Yes, yes, yes, Shen Youqing is the best!" Shen Quelin reached out and helped her stand up.

Shen Youqing was dressed in tattered clothes and covered in black.

Several men turned their heads to look.

Chu Jianyan, who was standing nearby, went up and draped a cloak over Shen Youqing, covering her tattered dress.

Shen Youqing greeted Chu Yan with a big smile, "Thank you, Senior Sister Chu!"

"Congratulations." Chu Jianyan said as she tied the belt, and then helped Shen Youqing adjust his cloak.

After Shen Youqing wrapped himself in the large cloak, the men beside him turned around.

Jiang Chenying was the first to raise her hand in a gesture of congratulations, saying, "Congratulations on breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage."

Unexpectedly, the youngest member of their group, Shen Youqing, was the first to reach the Nascent Soul stage.

But it's not surprising, she's talented and hardworking.

Shen Youqing nodded in return, "You should call me senior sister now."

She had called him "senior brother" for most of her past life, so shouldn't Jiang Chenying also call her "senior sister"?
"..." Jiang Chenying glanced at Shen Youqing with a slightly speechless expression.

He deserves a beating.

Wait, he turned around and went to undergo tribulation to break through!

"Junior Sister?" Liang Shimu greeted her with a smile, his deep-set eyes crinkling with laughter. "Hello, Junior Sister."

Shen Youqing said helplessly, "Senior Brother is too wicked!"

Liang Shimu let out a breath, feeling much more relaxed. "It's good that nothing happened."

Shen Youqing, her little face covered in dirt, flashed a set of bright white teeth. "I guarantee she'll be as lively and energetic as ever!"

Everyone else offered their congratulations to Shen Youqing, and the atmosphere immediately became relaxed and cheerful.

The three elders, who were a little further away, looked at the energetic Shen Youqing and their gazes softened unconsciously.

Shen Youqing's energy and youthful vigor were like the rising sun.

He truly is the future of the cultivation world!
Elder Gongyi said slowly, "Those who survive a great calamity are sure to have good fortune in the future."

This little girl's future potential is immeasurable.

After they had finished talking, Shen Youqing looked at Elder Gongyi and said, "Elder Gongyi, please allow me to inform you that the Yue family is currently under attack, and I need to return to the Yue family."

"Go ahead," Elder Gongyi waved his hand. "You all go together."

Shall we go together?

Shen Youqing was taken aback.

"Zhongzhou City is in complete chaos, and demonic cultivators have taken the opportunity to infiltrate. We need to kill them," Shen Quelin succinctly explained the upcoming mission.

Shen Youqing nodded.

“I’m going back to the Qingyu Sect anyway, I’ll give you a ride to the Yue family on the way,” Zhang Youli said.

Yue family.

At the foot of the back mountain.

Those sects are currently attacking and fighting at the foot of the mountain, so they definitely can't enter through the main gate.

but……

Shen Quelin pointed to the foot of the hill not far away and asked Shen Youqing, "Can we really go in?"

Don't ask, the answer is that he has never even walked through the back mountain of the Shen family.

"Absolutely," Shen Youqing said confidently, her hands forming a hand seal.

Zhang Youli stood not far away, watching the group of people.

A moment later, an elderly woman with white hair emerged from the barrier, looked at the group, and finally looked at Shen Youqing, saying, "Why did you come to the back mountain? Hmm? You've reached the Nascent Soul stage?"

Shen Youqing nodded obediently, then bowed and greeted him.

"You're a really good girl," the old woman praised with a smile, her kindness like that of a neighborly grandmother.

Zhang Youli bowed and greeted him, then gave a brief explanation.

The old woman waved her hand, "Sect Leader Zhang, there's no need for such formalities. I'll take these little ones with me now."

Zhang Youli nodded.

The old woman waved her hand and led ten people into the barrier. Then, she casually sent them to Yue Hehua's side.

The ten people who had suddenly appeared stood blankly in the main hall.

The Yuehe siblings and elders in the main hall were all startled.

"Jinjin!" Before she could finish speaking, Shen Youqing was hugged tightly by Yue Shihao.

"Mother, Uncle, Elder..." Shen Youqing peeked out and called out to everyone in turn.

The other nine people raised their hands in a gesture of respect.

Yue Hehua waved her hand and then looked at Shen Youqing.

Looking at Shen Youqing's messy, unkempt hair, Yue Hehua felt both amused and relieved.

Anyway, it's good that you're back.

Yue Shihao released Shen Youqing to check if she was injured, only to find that her breathing was off.

"He's reached the Nascent Soul stage?"

Shen Youqing nodded.

The elders sitting on both sides brightened up.

He actually transcended the tribulation and reached the Nascent Soul stage?

good good!
"Aunt, let Jinjin go wash up and regulate her breathing first," Yue Xunzhu suggested gently.

Yue Shihao looked at Shen Youqing and lovingly touched her face. "Mother will come to see you later."

Shen Youqing nodded and then left.

As for Jiang Chenying and the others, they explained their purpose, but Yue Hehua did not ask them to go to the front gate to provide support. Instead, she told them to go and rest first.

Wanhuayuan.

After Shen You finished washing up, she heard from her maid that Xiao Youqi was waiting for her at the courtyard gate.

Xiao Youqi, who was brought in by a maid, met Shen Youqing in the side hall.

After she dismissed the maids, Xiao Youqi hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Xiao Er's condition is very bad."

The Mind-Bending Formation attacks the mind. His father had told him before that Xiao Er had already lost control and that if this continued, he would go berserk at any time.

Shen Youqing immediately understood Xiao Youqi's meaning, "You want me to go to the Xiao family?"

Xiao Youqi nodded.

“Young Master Xiao couldn’t possibly be unaware of the current situation,” Shen Youqing said frankly. “Jun Su has already declared that all sects and aristocratic families are in favor of peace talks. If I go to the Xiao family now, it would be tantamount to walking into a trap.”

"Yes."

Xiao Youqi spoke frankly.

His straightforward manner puzzled Shen Youqing.

Xiao Youqi said, "I think I should inform Miss Shen. As for whether you go or not, that's up to you."

Shen Youqing did not rush to give an answer.

Xiao Youqi didn't intend to wait here for an answer. Putting herself in Shen Youqing's shoes, it was only natural that she wouldn't go.

“Young Master Xiao is being a bit too hasty.” Shen Youqing stood up and waited for Xiao Youqi to look up before speaking slowly, “Shi Jue saved me once in a flash, so I should go and thank him.”

Xiao Youqi was stunned for a moment.

Seeing that Shen Youqing didn't seem to be joking, he said, "You know perfectly well that the Xiao family is very likely to kidnap you to negotiate peace with the Demon Lord."

"No." Shen Youqing only said two words, but did not intend to explain the reason.

"Let's go."

……

The Xiao family.

No sooner had Xiao Youqi and Shen Youqing arrived at the Xiao family than the head of the Xiao family appeared.

"Father."

"Master Xiao."

The head of the Xiao family waved his hand, then joked, "You actually dare to come alone at this critical juncture?"

Shen Youqing took out the Instant Stone Jade and handed it over, saying, "If it weren't for Patriarch Xiao's permission, Young Master Xiao wouldn't have lent me such a valuable item."

As I said before, the eight families are in cahoots, and they are not spineless.

The head of the Xiao family waved his hand, not taking back the Instant Stone Jade. He walked ahead and led the way, saying as he went, "Miss Shen is very clever."

Shen Youqing smiled politely and then handed the stone jade to Xiao Youqi.

Xiao Youqi shook his head slightly, "Keep it, after all, the Demon Lord won't give it up so easily."

Compared to Shen Youqing, he's incredibly safe. This kind of life-saving item should be left to Shen Youqing.

Shen Youqing choked with emotion, and finally put away the ephemeral stone.
