Chapter 633 Between Master and Disciple
Yunxi calmly took a sip of the spiritual tea brewed by Hanlian, and then said:

"Hanlian, if you have something urgent to attend to, you can take care of it first. I'll wait for you."

After crushing the communication talisman, Han Lian sighed, her handsome eyebrows furrowing in a frown, and said nonchalantly:

"Ranxi, you are a friend I can entrust my life to. I won't hide it from you anymore. The message talisman just now was sent by my master. She knows you have come to the Extreme Cold Sect and wants me to help her ask you for a breakthrough potion."

Yunxi put down her cup and said casually:
"Have your master send over the collected spiritual plants, and I'll help her refine them right now. The Haoran Sect has already said that as long as we gather all the spiritual plants needed to refine the potion, we'll help refine it if we send it to the Haoran Sect. It doesn't matter if one or two are missing. The more cultivators who can break through to the Nascent Soul stage, the better."

Yunxi knew very well that she couldn't be too petty about such important matters. Without binding all the cultivators of the Weiyu Realm together, the crisis brought about by the evil god's body could not be completely resolved.

If more cultivators are not given hope, and evil cultivators take advantage of the situation to bewitch some hopeless cultivation families or those with many members, then it would truly be a loss. Therefore, after the Haoran Sect released the news, it really reassured many high-level cultivators and also improved Yunxi's reputation.

Han Lian smiled awkwardly after hearing this, took out over a hundred jade boxes from her storage bracelet, and pushed them in front of Yun Xi, saying:
"These are the spiritual plants I've collected. If there are any missing, I'll trouble Ranxi to provide them first. I'll pay with spirit stones."

Yunxi immediately understood. Han Xiao was taking advantage of Han Lian, her disciple, and had even included her in her scheme. If Han Lian had shamelessly made a request, it would have been difficult for her, as a friend, to refuse. This was a plan to get something for nothing.

"Ranxi, I know this matter has indeed put you in a difficult position, but she is, after all, my master. Now that my cultivation has fallen back to the Nascent Soul stage, she is somewhat..."

She shook her head and stopped talking; the master and disciple had finally developed a rift.

Yunxi could understand Hanlian's difficulties. In the cultivation world, the master-disciple relationship was even more reliable and binding than kinship. However, Hanxiao was obviously no match for Yuling. Her master truly raised her like a daughter and never thought of asking her for anything. Even the gene enhancement potion was something she forced on Yuling.

So after seeing the relationship between Han Lian and Han Xiao, she could only shake her head helplessly, then waved her sleeve to collect the spiritual plants that Han Lian had prepared, and placed a bottle of ordinary gene enhancement potion in front of Han Lian, saying:

"This is a breakthrough potion I made when I was practicing. It has a very obvious side effect. Although it can help the user forcibly break through to the next level, it will take many times longer to cultivate if they want to advance to the next level afterward."

"If your master can wait, you can tell her that you haven't collected a complete set of spirit plants for refining, so you need to use your connections to purchase them from me. I can't say when I'll collect all the spirit plants and then refine them for her, but I can guarantee that the newly refined breakthrough potion will have no side effects."

Han Lian's mouth gaped open when she heard Yun Xi's words, as if a new door had been opened for her.

Yunxi simply smiled, picked up her teacup, took a sip, and remained completely unmoved.

Treat others the way you want to be treated. Even if you are in a superior position in a relationship, you should still show basic respect. Relationships between people are reciprocal. No one is always in a superior position; there will always be times when someone comes from behind and surpasses them.

Hanlian's personality dictates that she will not be willing to be exploited indefinitely. This is a great opportunity; it's up to her to decide what to do.

Han Lian lowered her eyes and pondered for a while before looking up, reaching out to firmly grasp the bottle of medicine in her hand and saying:

"Since Master is in such a hurry to break through, as her disciple, I will do my best to fulfill her wish. I will use spirit stones to make up for the lack of spiritual plants. Thank you for your trouble!"

Hanlian spoke very seriously this time, as if she had made up her mind.

"There's no need for thanks between us. Whether it's you, Xun Kun, or Yun Chen, I will do my best to help you as long as you ask."

The path of cultivation is arduous and fraught with thorns. It's my fortune to have two or three close friends to accompany me. I hope that one day we can stand together at the pinnacle of this world, and look back without regrets.” Han Lian said, her eyes shining brightly.
"Yes, that day will definitely come."

The next day, Yunxi left the Northern Region, while Hanlian delivered a breakthrough potion to Hanxiao and put the sign of seclusion back on, continuing to recover her cultivation.

Han Yan sat casually in the chair, took a sip of the spiritual wine from his gourd, and said to Han Ying beside him:
"Tsk tsk tsk! Han Xiao has really squeezed Han Lian dry. I don't know if being her disciple is a blessing or a curse. If I had a disciple like that, I would definitely treat her well."

Even Han Ying, who usually has a good temper, frowned. She also disapproved of Han Xiao's actions. No matter what, they are master and disciple, and one should not exploit a disciple like this.

"Alright, I'll talk to her after she comes out of seclusion. There are some things we shouldn't go too far with."

"Hehe, that depends on whether Han Xiao listens. I advise you not to waste your breath. You should use that time to improve your cultivation. Ran Xi has already emerged from seclusion, and the implementation of the ascension plan should not be far off. Let's work harder!"

"Senior brother is more driven than me, so you should go into seclusion too! I'll just let things take their course. If I can't break through to the Nascent Soul stage, I'll stay behind at the sect so you won't have any worries."

Han Ying has a good mindset. Even though she knows she can't break through, she cultivates at her own pace. As long as her Dao heart is stable, she will eventually break through.

Yunmen Temple in the Eastern Region

When Yunxi appeared in front of Yunmen Temple, she smelled the scent of sandalwood. The entire Yunmen Temple was built against the mountain, disappearing into the clouds from bottom to top. The red walls and gray tiles exuded solemnity and were very magnificent.

This was her first time visiting the Buddhist retreat grounds, so she lingered for a while to observe. She then saw a short, bald boy emerge from the vermilion gate, whose bone age she estimated to be about six years old.

"Amitabha! Female benefactor, have you come to visit an old friend?"

"Yes, I have come to see Buddha Yunchen."

The young monk had only recently begun to cultivate his inner energy, so he naturally couldn't discern Yun Xi's cultivation level. However, someone who could refer to himself as "this one" must have at least reached the Nascent Soul stage. Therefore, he kept a straight face and said:
“Senior, Grandmaster Yun Chen is in seclusion and cannot receive guests at the moment. However, Grandmaster Yun Yi can entertain you. Please come in.”

After saying that, he respectfully made a gesture of invitation.

Yunxi did not refuse and followed the little one into Yunmen Temple.

"Amitabha! Fellow Daoist Ranxi, how have you been?"

Yun Yi greeted Yun Xi with a smile.

"Thanks to the master, I recently emerged from seclusion. I'm here to see old friends and relax. I'll be returning to my sect afterward, but unfortunately, Yun Chen is in seclusion."

“Amitabha! You are an honored guest of Yunmen Temple. This humble monk will certainly treat you well on behalf of Yun Chen. If Fellow Daoist Ran Xi does not mind, you may stay at Yunmen for a few days. The Buddhist temple is a pure place and can help you eliminate distracting thoughts and stabilize your Dao heart.”
