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

Chapter 8 Don't torture yourself like this.

Xiao Ke sensed a hint of pride in Shen Youqing's serious expression.

Her manner seemed to say, "I take naps, but I don't practice all the time, so I'm not considered diligent!"

She has a serious and earnest demeanor, but she's just so cute.

"Hmm," Xiao Ke responded slowly, "diligent."

Shen Youqing stood up abruptly, her serious expression revealing her coldness. She said earnestly, "Fifth Senior Brother, you're wrong. My cultivation can't be considered diligent."

Xiao Ke gazed at Shen Youqing's upright and serious demeanor, a fleeting smile like scattered starlight in his eyes.

"Third Senior Sister is here." Xiao Ke changed the subject.

Shen Youqing's attention was diverted, and he turned to look.

Lin Youran's arrival was ill-intentioned; her gentle, watery smile seemed to conceal a knife.

"Fifth Junior Brother," Lin Youran smiled slightly, "I think we need to have a good talk."

She realized something was wrong shortly after she ran out.

To ensure the safety of its disciples, the Hehuan Sect generally does not allow non-disciples to enter. How could that person possibly have gotten in?

however!
Just as she breathed a sigh of relief and was about to go back to settle accounts with Xiao Ke, that man actually showed up!
She didn't even need to ask to know that it was Xiao Ke who did this!

Sure enough, you can't believe a single word a man says!

"Third Senior Sister, just tell me if that fellow Daoist has arrived or not." A clear and indifferent voice rang out.

Seeing Xiao Ke's self-righteous face, Lin Youran was so angry that she laughed.

How dare he say that?

"Junior Sister, you should go back to your room first. The following scene is not suitable for children to watch!" Lin Youran smiled at Shen Youqing.

Shen Youqing exclaimed "Huh?" and then retorted, "Third Senior Sister, I'm eighteen now, not a child anymore."

"Be good," Lin Youran said gently.

Xiao Ke said to Shen Youqing in a calm voice, "Go inside and rest for a while."

Third Senior Sister is the most vengeful. If we don't let her take revenge on the spot, we'll have to live in constant fear for the rest of our lives.

Although he wasn't afraid, now that there was another person, he was worried that his third senior sister might hold a grudge and implicate Shen Youqing.

Let's let Third Senior Sister vent her anger a little.

Shen Youqing let out a soft "Aww" and obediently turned around and went back into the house.

After a fairly amicable exchange, Lin Youran was a little less angry.

"Junior Sister, come out quickly~"

Upon hearing this, Shen Youqing opened the door and came out of the house.

"How are you adapting to the sect?" Lin Youran asked gently, like a caring older sister next door.

Shen Youqing thought for a moment and answered seriously, "I'm very used to it!"

Lin Youran looked at Shen Youqing with a gentle smile, then exclaimed in surprise, "You've already reached the eighth level of Qi Refining? I saw you yesterday that you were only at the seventh level of Qi Refining. Junior Sister, you're really amazing!"

Shen Youqing said shyly, "Third Senior Sister, you flatter me."

"This is a gift from your senior sister." Lin Youran took out a storage bag and handed it over. "I only know how to refine pills, I don't have any other skills, so please don't look down on me!"

He only knows how to refine pills; he has no other skills.

Shen Youqing looked at Lin Youran with a hesitant expression.

How precious are alchemists!
"Her alchemy skills are indeed mediocre." Xiao Ke's cold voice rang out. Seeing Shen Youqing looking over, he said, "These words were spoken by Venerable Lin, the one known as the number one alchemist of our time."

Lin Youran gave a soft snort.

Men are such disgusting creatures!

"Are you really that good?" Lin Youran smiled gently. "During the Five Sects Tournament a few years ago, you even managed to explode the cauldron while refining a Grade 3 Heart-Clearing Pill. Although my alchemy skills are just average, compared to you, I can be considered a genius."

Under Shen Youqing's somewhat surprised gaze, Xiao Ke was left speechless, like someone swallowing a bitter pill. The explosion of the cauldron was indeed a fact, but there was more to the story.

Having turned the tide, Lin Youran pulled Shen Youqing's hand.

"Junior Sister, your hands are so beautiful!" Lin Youran said, then groped her a couple of times.

Her long, slender, fair fingers were well-proportioned, her nails were pink, and her palms were slightly fleshy and soft.

If you take care of your nails and get them done, they'll look even prettier!
Xiao Ke walked up, reached out and grabbed Shen Youqing's arm, pulling him aside.

Lin Youran narrowed her eyes as she looked at the man who was separating her from her junior sister.

Something is wrong!
Xiao Ke is acting very strangely!

Lin Youran walked around to the side, her gaze lingering on Xiao Ke and Shen Youqing with an ambiguous expression.

Xiao Ke raised his arm to shield Shen Youqing behind him.

Shen Youqing gazed at the tall, slender figure in front of him, lost in thought.

"Junior Sister, what do you think of Fifth Junior Brother?" Lin Youran's gentle voice pulled Shen Youqing out of her thoughts.

Shen Youqing peeked out and looked at Lin Youran, then began to think seriously.

Xiao Ke remained indifferent, but Lin Youran always felt that he was secretly nervous.

"I think Fifth Senior Brother is a really nice person," Shen Youqing said with a smile.

Is the flute carving good?
Lin Youran raised an eyebrow.

really!

Under Xiao Ke's subtly wary gaze, Lin Youran smiled and said, "Junior Sister, you don't know this, but your Fifth Senior Brother is notoriously cold-blooded and ruthless."

Shen Youqing blinked.

Anyway, Fifth Senior Brother doesn't seem to have any ill intentions towards her for the time being. As for what Fifth Senior Brother is really like, he seems to be a very good person. As for other aspects, it's been too short to know much, so I won't comment.

"Alright, alright, I won't say anything more." Under Xiao Ke's cold and threatening gaze, Lin Youran shrugged.

Xiao Ke glanced sideways at Shen Youqing behind him, his mind racing with a thousand thoughts.

"Oh, by the way, has Junior Sister finished her cultivation?" Lin Youran asked, then added enthusiastically, "I'll take Junior Sister to play!"

"I still need to train my body," Shen Youqing said, his face full of regret.

Body tempering is not something that can be done overnight, and the current intensity of her body tempering can be increased a little more.

In any case, you must reach the Great Perfection of Qi Refining before going to the Qi Xu Secret Realm!

"Body tempering?" Lin Youran was stunned for a moment, her tone revealing an absurdity, "Junior Sister, you want to become a body cultivator?"

Shen Youqing shook his head.

Lin Youran immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

She didn't want to see her pretty junior sister turn into a big, burly guy!
"You still want to train your body?" Xiao Ke turned to look at Shen Youqing, his eyes clearly expressing the sentiment that 'you're not working hard enough'.

Shen Youqing nodded, then seriously refuted Xiao Ke, "Fifth Senior Brother, I really am not diligent. Today, I didn't even spend an hour training my body."

Lin Youran: ?

Looking at Lin Youran's shocked expression, Xiao Ke spoke slowly, "She got up at Chenshi (7-9 AM), cultivated for almost an hour, and then cultivated for another quarter of an hour at Wushi (11:30 AM)..."

Lin Youran waved her hand, interrupting Xiao Ke.

"Junior Sister, how come you are so diligent?" Lin Youran walked up and took Shen Youqing's hand, asking with concern, "Your cultivation in less than a day is equivalent to my cultivation in seven days."

Shen Youqing responded with an "Ah?"

Is this really hard work?
"Junior Sister," Lin Youran looked at Shen Youqing with concern, "If you're unhappy about anything, tell us. If you have any difficulties or grudges, tell us too. We'll help you. Don't torture yourself like this!"

Shen Youqing: ...

Not really.
