Fellow Daoist Entrusts His Child: Immortality Begins with Nurturing a Demoness

Chapter 87 The Impolite Outsider, A Critical Moment in the Situation (6500 words)

The following day, after refining a Soul Cleansing Crystal, Luo Fanchen slept soundly all night and finally recovered some of his energy.

He quickly washed up and casually called out to Qiuyun, but received no response. However, seeing the gradually thickening gloomy mist surrounding the soul banner, he knew that the girl would awaken within three days, just in time to avoid the opening of the seventh floor.

"Ming Ruoxue"

Luo Fanchen murmured, activated the mansion's restrictions, stepped out of the gate, and headed directly towards the inner ring.

The seventh floor was opened by Ming Ruoxue. During the ascent, he could not use any means related to the Soul Banner to avoid revealing anything.

"As for the True Essence of Wood, it can be attributed to my constitution."

Luo Fanchen frowned slightly. He had already thought of an explanation for the unusually strong Yi Wood True Essence.

He could even deliberately reveal a flaw, so that Ming Ruoxue would notice and take the initiative to help him find out his physical condition.

Cultivation physiques are precious, and he wouldn't dare to easily reveal them to other Daoist sects. But if it's a prodigy from the Luo Shen Pavilion who cultivates the Xuanzhang Inheritance and doesn't tolerate any nonsense, he can trust him.

Along the way, there were many people coming and going, including quite a few sect disciples dressed in brocade robes.

The robes with patterns of overturning clouds and rain, flying beasts and tigers, and falling rain and ice crystals are the inner sect uniforms of the Chongyun Sect, the Zodiac Tower, and the Tianshui Sect.

"It's not as amazing as I imagined."

Luo Fanchen paced around. There were many disciples from the sect, and the number of independent cultivators hawking their wares on the street was also significantly higher.

He stepped aside to make way, and the many sect disciples looked at him with indifferent eyes, their arrogance revealing a hint of disdain.

The disciples brushed past each other and headed straight for the inner ring. One of them, a boy of about fourteen or fifteen years old with a cultivation level of the seventh level of Qi Refining, seemed to sense Luo Fanchen's prying gaze. He snorted and used his shoulder to bump him aside.

"Humph!"

This person was dressed in the robes of an inner disciple of the Tianshui Sect, and had a solid foundation in cultivation. Luo Fanchen averted his gaze and gave an apologetic smile, seemingly to show weakness.

"Watch your eyes."

The young man had a resolute face and exuded righteousness. After staring at Luo Fanchen with an intimidating gaze for a moment, he turned and left.

“These out-of-town monks have no manners.”

Luo Fanchen clicked his tongue in amazement and recognized the other party's identity: Han Chong, an inner disciple of the Tianshui Sect, with dual spiritual roots of water and fire, ranked 30th on the Qingyun Ranking, and had reached the seventh level of Qi Refining at the age of fourteen.

This person has above-average spiritual root aptitude, but possesses a special constitution known as the Clear Water Body.

This person's ability to absorb water-attribute spiritual energy will increase by about 10%, and the power of water-attribute spells will also increase slightly, making them a popular candidate to advance to the Heavenly Battle rank in this year's Ascension Tournament.

"They can be considered Mo Xue's formidable rivals. It seems that the three sects are really serious this time."

Luo Fanchen frowned slightly. Han Chong was considered one of the most important figures among the disciples of the Tianshui Sect, and it seemed that his ascent to the tower would not be too smooth.

Chongyun, the Zodiac, Tianshui, and Houtu Pavilion—whose territory is that again?

Yes, Liu Xia, an outer disciple of the Luoshen Pavilion, is said to have failed to comprehend the Xuanzhang Inheritance Method and is practicing the Secondary Method instead.

Why did the outer sect members have a bad experience with Ming Ruoxue?

Luo Fanchen murmured, judging from the posture of these four sects, they probably didn't come with good intentions.

At the same time, in the innermost mansions managed by Xianshuiju and Qinghezong, disciples from the four sects were resting. In the most superior private room, Han Chong looked worried and paced back and forth.

"Junior brother, what's wrong? Something on your mind?"

Wearing the same inner disciple's robes and possessing a cultivation level of seven, Han Yuan pushed open the door and entered, smiling and teasing.

My junior brother is usually gentle and reserved, and acts with humility. It's strange that he would take the initiative to cause trouble for a Qi Refining rogue cultivator today.

"Senior brother, help me investigate someone."

"Who?"

"I had marked the rogue cultivator I bumped into today beforehand."

Han Chong's strong features furrowed slightly, indicating a hint of irritation.

"Hmm? His cultivation level is only at the sixth level of Qi Refining. He looks to be around thirty years old. He's just an ordinary rogue cultivator. What's the point of paying attention to him?"

"Senior brother, he is very strong, we must not let our guard down."

Han Chong frowned, hesitated for a moment, and then sighed softly, "This person suppressed my aura. Just being looked at by him made me feel scared. He must be the trump card that Fairy Ruoxue has hidden."

"Press you down?"

Han Yuan found it hard to believe. Junior Brother Han Chong was a rising star favored by the four major families. He had won the favor of the Luo and Gong families and was allowed to cultivate the secondary method inheritance [Heavenly Cloud Dividing Technique], which was one of the best among the superior techniques.

With the added blessing of the Pure Water Body, in terms of true essence alone, he is no less than an ordinary Taoist disciple.

Moreover, my junior brother cultivates a spirit of courage and perseverance, yet he was suppressed in just one exchange.

“If I don’t confront him, our true strength and weaknesses will be exposed.”

Han Chong sighed and said helplessly, "Report this to Lord Xia as soon as possible and try to win this person over, otherwise the trip to the Yimu Sect's secret realm will be difficult."

"It's that powerful?"

Han Yuan was speechless. The rogue cultivator's true essence was restrained and unremarkable. He really couldn't see anything special about it.

"Even my junior brother is no match for him?"

"I don't know, I can only get a general idea."

After Han Chong finished speaking, he added very seriously, "If we become enemies with this person in the future, our Tianshui Sect disciples can retreat immediately when they encounter him, which will not be considered desertion."

"How does it compare to Qingbei Xuan of the Qinghe Sect?"

"Qingbei Xuantu has a false reputation; this person is far superior to him."

After weighing the situation for a moment, Han Chong sighed softly, "I am no less pressured by him than Zhen Yuan."

Zhen Yuan? That genius from one of the four great families, almost predetermined to join the Daoist sect, the top-ranked Zhen Yuan on the Qingyun List?
Han Yuan was slightly taken aback, but without further hesitation, he bid farewell to his junior brother and immediately went to visit Lord Xia.

Meanwhile, Luo Fanchen went directly to Li Miaoyun's residence.

The mansion was quiet and empty, but recently, thanks to the assistance of the three sects and the influx of a large number of cultivators, the Jubao Pavilion had become very busy.

The stewards were almost never free. Li Miaoyun practically lived in Jubaoge, and Moxue was also taken there for personal guidance in her cultivation.

The mansion had a triple-layered, first-grade, high-level protective array. However, as the spiritual light swept over it, the barrier opened and closed on its own, welcoming him inside.

"It's much quieter here."

Luo Fanchen sniffed lightly. The second-tier spirit gathering array was truly a good thing; its spiritual energy was clearly purer than that of his mansion.

He wasn't in a hurry. He slowly walked towards the third floor. Li Miaoyun could naturally sense his presence through the protective array of the house. She would return to the mansion to see him as soon as she had time.

"Crash-"

Upon entering the third floor, Luo Fanchen was immediately surrounded by the sound of flowing water, and could faintly smell the dampness.

It has a sweet, refreshing taste with the aroma of apricots, mixed with the moisture of spring water, making it a truly delightful experience.

"Someone?"

Luo Fanchen was slightly puzzled, but unfortunately the mansion was protected by an array, making it difficult for him to perceive with his divine sense. So he simply stepped over the sandalwood screen, walked along the corridor, and prepared to enter the private reception room.

As I passed by, I was surprised to find a warm spring flowing beside me, seemingly blessed by a protective array.

Amidst the rising spiritual energy and rising mist, a graceful figure appeared and disappeared.

She had a slender and voluptuous figure, elegant hair, and long hair that flowed like a babbling brook over her graceful back, extending down her form-fitting gauze dress, which accentuated her full hips.

Her slender, long legs were smooth and shapely, her snow-white feet playfully splashing in the water, her long arches swaying in the gentle ripples, her slender, white toes round and full, adorned with vibrant crimson nail polish, all perfectly proportioned and beautiful.

"Gulu——"

Luo Fanchen, having cultivated diligently for twenty years, couldn't help but swallow.

The beautiful woman by the spring was startled awake by the sound. She turned around shyly and saw that she was dressed in a simple, elegant dress with a thin gauze drape. Her black hair cascaded down her back, and she gently nibbled at her lips with her pearly teeth. Her cheeks were flushed with a blush. She lowered her eyes and brows, exuding a natural charm that was breathtakingly beautiful.

"Mr. Lolo? What are you doing here?"

Li Miaoyun exclaimed in surprise, somewhat at a loss for words. Her slender, snow-white neck, adorned with a beauty mark, was flushed with pink, and her rounded earlobes were as tender as red fruits.

She withdrew her slender feet, her delicate toes hastily disappearing beneath her gauze skirt. The already thin skirt was soaked with water, clinging tightly to her fair skin, revealing the graceful curves of her thighs and the even lines of her nails on her lower abdomen.

"cough"

Luo Fanchen coughed, feeling embarrassed and wanting to avoid the situation, but then he immediately realized something was wrong.

Li Miaoyun is a Foundation Establishment cultivator; with just a slight thought, he can be sensed within a hundred feet. How could such negligence occur?

Okay, okay, so it's a honey trap, huh? I like beautiful women.

Luo Fanchen's eyes were mocking, but he looked at Li Miaoyun with great interest.

To be honest, she is indeed a mature and beautiful woman with a captivating, ethereal beauty.

If Mo Xue is still green and unripe, Qiu Yun is a perfectly sweet and crisp peach, and Li Miaoyun is a ripe and soft peach, with every bite filled with sweet juice and a lingering fragrance on the lips and tongue.

"Sir, please allow me to change my clothes."

Luo Fanchen's burning gaze swept over her, like fire, and Li Miaoyun's voice was timid and hesitant.

She lowered her eyes shyly, wishing she could disappear into a crack in the ground.

Although the previous crisis was just a misunderstanding, it strongly stimulated her sense of crisis, and she could not accept the risk of the adults being outmaneuvered.

However, in terms of wealth and background, she is indeed at a disadvantage among the pavilion masters. Even if she does her best to support the master, she has no advantage whatsoever. Only by leveraging her strengths can she further deepen her friendship with the master.

Her greatest advantage, of course, is her delicate and pretty appearance.

"Okay, I'll wait for you in the main hall."

Luo Fanchen nodded with amusement, continued to observe for a moment, then withdrew his gaze and left first.

Li Miaoyun felt as if she had been granted a pardon; her full, shapely breasts rose and fell incessantly, and her lace-trimmed bodice, made of thin gauze, was already crumpled from being pinched.

Her eyelashes trembled slightly as she finally breathed a sigh of relief, but she quickly cursed herself for being so weak.

"Damn it. I finally mustered up the courage, and I've already lost all face. And now I'm backing down at the last minute! Damn it!"

Li Miaoyun covered her face with her bare hands, stomping her feet in embarrassment.

Lord Luo is meticulous; how could he not see through her clumsy tactics?

This was an open scheme; she was gambling. Even if she couldn't shake the adult's resolve, she would still leave a beautiful impression on him.

Although things may not necessarily develop in that direction, getting to know each other better in the future will at least help to shorten the distance between us.

The adult was clearly somewhat tempted, but she backed out at the last minute due to her modesty and shame.

hateful!

"Li Miaoyun, isn't this the time you're so chaste?"

Li Miaoyun's pretty face flushed red. She had acted by force today, and now that the opportunity had been lost, she was afraid that there would be no chance or atmosphere for her to make a move again in the short term.

In the main hall, Luo Fanchen waited quietly for a while, then brewed himself a cup of Snow Crystal Pear tea and drank it by himself.

That's really good, Foundation Establishment cultivators are really impressive!
Luo Fanchen's slightly fluctuating emotions gradually calmed down. Foundation Establishment cultivators have already undergone a complete cleansing of their marrow and meridians, eliminating most of the impurities from their physical bodies. The various sensations are far superior to those of Qi Refining cultivators.

He was certainly tempted, but unfortunately he was powerless to do so. At this point, dual cultivation would only make him a vessel for cultivation.

The method of dual cultivation emphasizes the harmony of yin and yang. His cultivation level is far inferior to Li Miaoyun's. Even if he does not use the method of dual cultivation, during normal pleasure, his true essence and blood energy will be unconsciously absorbed by her, and it is difficult to control him.

He could squeeze it out two or three times and then he wouldn't need to build his foundation anymore. Besides, primordial yang is also very precious. Before he fully opened all the acupoints in his body at the ninth level of Qi Refining, the yang energy was not depleted, which was very beneficial for cultivating the Lesser Yang Wood Transformation Technique. Otherwise, with his current wealth, he could live in Chang Le Tower and enjoy himself to the fullest.

"I apologize for keeping you waiting, sir. I apologize for my rudeness."

After a while, Li Miaoyun arrived late.

Her fair face was flushed, her fox-like eyes were filled with spring, and her delicate lips were moist with fragrant saliva.

With her long, flowing black hair cascading down her back, a few damp strands of hair clung to her ears, captivating the eye. Her pristine white dress flowed down her beautiful back, revealing her graceful, peach-shaped hips. Every gesture she made exuded natural charm.

Good, good, you're amazing! Wait until I reach Foundation Establishment, then dare to wear it again in front of me!
Luo Fanchen's pupils trembled violently. His composure, already shaken by Qiu Yun, was finding it difficult to withstand.

"gentlemen?"

The sweet, refreshing scent of apricot blossoms lingered around his nose, and his moist breath brushed against his cheeks, causing Luo Fanchen to blush involuntarily.

My itchy face started to heat up against my will.

Li Miaoyun seemed to be deliberately getting very close. She squatted down, casually brushing her cheeks and temples with her delicate hand, revealing her rosy earlobes.

So close! He could smell the moist fragrance of her dark hair, and her faint body temperature was clearly conveyed to his cheek through her breath.

"Sir, your face is very red. Are you feeling unwell?"

"Ahem. The side effects of the cultivation technique are nothing to worry about."

Luo Fanchen cursed Li Miaoyun for pushing her luck. He conceded defeat and took a half step back, but the latter's eyes softened. She stepped forward and wrapped her two delicate hands around his palms, while her magnificent breasts almost pressed against his chest.

Hmm. You say it's arousing, yet you're also holding your tongue; you say it's not arousing, yet it's still incredibly alluring.

"Is it your eyes? Sir, you should take better care of your health."

Li Miaoyun also noticed that Luo Fanchen's mental state was not good. Usually, when she used her charm magic, the effect was minimal.

Today, she casually used her powers and was able to shake the master's resolve. She immediately calmed herself down and used her divine sense to carefully examine the master. During the process, her facial features unconsciously drew closer together, and when she came to her senses, her lips were almost touching the master's nose.

"Well--"

Li Miaoyun's pretty face visibly flushed red, and she hesitated, unsure whether to advance or retreat.

How embarrassing! Her seductive skills are utterly shameful!

"My lord, your energy has been depleted in a short period of time, resulting in your unstable mind and low spirits. I will have Yunmo fetch some Soul Cleansing Crystals later. After you refine them and rest for a night, you should be able to recover about 80% of your strength."

Li Miaoyun's voice was halting, and her lips almost brushed against the adult's nose several times as she opened and closed her mouth.

She was completely flustered, her fox-like eyes glazed over, and she stared blankly at the adult's increasingly fiery gaze, her lips moving as if she wanted to say something but couldn't, until...
"That's enough, don't push your luck."

Luo Fanchen gave a light snort, and Li Miaoyun's pretty face changed slightly. She immediately came to her senses and hurriedly tried to get up to apologize.

She cursed herself for being stupid. A Foundation Establishment cultivator, she was not even as good as a maid in Chang Le Lou. Her fussing and hesitating had backfired.

"Snapped--"

"Well"

Ripples spread across her soft, white buttocks. As Li Miaoyun arched her slender waist halfway, she felt a tingling, burning pain in her buttocks and couldn't help but cover her mouth and gasp in surprise.

Looking at Luo Fanchen, he seemed to have just come back to his senses, staring in confusion at his palms that still held a lingering fragrance.

Peach-shaped, with a plump and wonderfully meaty texture.
"Mr."

"Ahem, rude, you should be punished!"

Luo Fanchen coughed lightly, and after speaking, he couldn't help but chuckle.

After being punished for failing to reach the Foundation Establishment stage, he recovered.

"I accept the punishment."

Li Miaoyun lowered her pretty face as if trying to see the tips of her shoes, but what she saw was a deep and fair cleavage.

She hesitated, her shame and modesty burning within her, yet she was secretly delighted at having successfully built a closer relationship with the adult.

If the adults simply scolded them, that would be the worst outcome. It seems that the adults are undoubtedly swayed by their words.

She achieved her strategic goal by chance.

"When you ascend the tower tomorrow, tell me about the four pieces of information, and also about Liu Xia from the outer sect of Luoshen Pavilion. It seems she doesn't get along with Fairy Ruoxue?"

The moist, sweet scent of apricot lingered on Luo Fanchen's nose, and the soft, delicate touch of his lips seemed to still remain on the tip of his nose.

He deliberately changed the subject, and the romantic yet awkward atmosphere behind the screen finally dissipated somewhat.

Li Miaoyun breathed a sigh of relief, her delicate hands beneath her sleeves already damp with sweat.

"This time, all four sects are under Liu Xia's jurisdiction. She is in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage and cultivates the Ice Heart Technique, which is the inheritance of the superior Daoist scripture, Ice Heart Jade Pot Technique. She once had some misunderstandings with Sister Ruoxue."

Li Miaoyun spoke slowly, pouring herself a cup of spiritual tea and sipping it, the blush on her pretty face gradually fading.

"This woman possesses mid-grade dual spiritual roots and belongs to one of the subordinate clans of the Tuo family. She distinguished herself in the previous Ascension to Immortality Tournament thanks to her talent in spiritual plants, successfully gaining entry into the Luoshen Pavilion."

"His Dao heart was firm and he was quite talented, but unfortunately, he failed to comprehend the Xuanzhang inheritance several times afterward and was unable to advance to the inner sect for a long time."

Li Miaoyun sighed, seemingly sharing the same sentiment.

"Three years ago, during the final promotion competition, Liu Xia had a great chance of winning and advancing to the inner sect. Unfortunately, she ran into Sister Ruoxue and suffered a crushing defeat. Her Dao heart was damaged, and she never recovered."

"Even if there are grudges among the outer sect members, they wouldn't dare to provoke Fairy Ruoxue, would they?"

Luo Fanchen raised an eyebrow, his face showing doubt before he quickly answered his own question: "Is it the Tuo family?"

"He is unable to comprehend the Xuanzhang inheritance, his hope of advancing to the inner sect is slim, and he has also fallen out with Sister Ruoxue, which has led to suppression from the sect leader's direct lineage. If he wants to achieve the elixir, he can only rely on the main family, which naturally makes him at odds with Sister Ruoxue."

Li Miaoyun spoke slowly and deliberately, her fingertips unconsciously stroking the rim of the cup.

In Taoism, the primary condition for advancing to the inner disciple level is to establish a foundation, followed by the ability to comprehend a superior Taoist scripture or inherit a profound text.

Of course, only inner disciples who comprehend the profound teachings of the sect will have the opportunity to receive special training and compete for the top spot.

For example, Sister Xue is one of the strong contenders. If she can keep going and be the first to comprehend the inherited Daoist scriptures, she can advance to the chief position and formally attempt to resonate with the profound chapters and form a golden core.

Both she and Liu Xia were among those who failed to comprehend the profound teachings of the Xuanzhang lineage.

The Taoist Xuanzhang lineage is far less difficult to comprehend than the Xuanmen lineage, but it still requires extremely high comprehension and a certain amount of luck. Moreover, the Xuanzhang itself is said to be compatible with cultivators, so the actual attrition rate is not low.

At the same time, after comprehending the method of inheritance, one must undergo the Xuanzhang Resonance Ceremony itself, which is extremely costly. Even for a powerful sect like Taoism, the number of places available is limited.

"The Tuo family's inner disciple is currently fourth in the inner disciple rankings, while Sister Ruoxue is third."

"The ranking is finalized every five years. Only the top three can obtain the opportunity to resonate with the Mysterious Chapter. The chief can obtain a top-grade Core Formation spiritual item, which can increase the probability of Core Formation by 20% and the quality of Core Formation by 10%."

"Third, isn't he the strongest competitor?"

Luo Fanchen sighed softly. Someone as strong as Ming Ruoxue was only ranked third?

"Because Sister Ruoxue is young and has great potential, with her superior Water and Wood spiritual roots and the blessing of the Taiyin Jade Soul Body, her aptitude is outstanding, and her comprehension and cultivation progress by leaps and bounds."

"There are still more than two years left in the settlement. If Sister Xue can keep up her progress, she will definitely be able to catch up and take the top spot."

"I see."

Luo Fanchen nodded slightly. He was no longer a country bumpkin; following Li Miaoyun had broadened his horizons somewhat.

The Taiyin Jade Soul Body is no less powerful than the Immortal Body, but it has many limitations. It can draw the power of the moon into the body to cleanse the marrow and greatly improve mental strength and the efficiency of spiritual energy absorption.

In combat, cultivation progresses almost double, and when comprehending the law, one directly enters a state of sudden enlightenment, making rapid progress.

Unfortunately, this constitution can only be activated when the full moon shines its light, and only for a few days each month.

"Wouldn't it be very difficult for the Taiyin Jade Soul Body to comprehend the profound texts?"

Luo Fanchen murmured, "This body has another major side effect: before breaking through the primordial yin, my emotions are unpredictable."

After breaking through the Yin barrier, one will be weak and listless for a long time, with stagnant meridians, making cultivation impossible.

Generally lasting five to ten years, after which the physique will undergo a second sublimation, the mental turmoil can be resolved, and at the time of the waning moon, some of the divine effects of the physique can also be exerted. At this time, the divine effects of the Taiyin Jade Soul are no less than those of the immortal body.

Practicing the Supreme Way of Forgetting Emotions certainly cannot overcome the difficulty of calming the mind and body, and it also contradicts the principles of the method of forgetting emotions.
"If Sister Ruoxue is naturally cold and indifferent, and her Dao heart is firm and unbreakable, she can calm her mind, sever her worldly ties, and resonate with the profound chapters."

Li Miaoyun's pretty face was serious, and she said with great certainty.

Only by frequently interacting with and getting to know Sister Ruoxue can one recognize her unbreakable Dao heart. Sister Ruoxue's personality is perfectly suited to the Supreme Forgetfulness Luoshen Technique, and any distracting thoughts can be easily cut off.

"So, three of the top four inner sect members are from clans? If the Tuo family wants to get into the top three, they have to squeeze out Fairy Ruoxue?"

Luo Fanchen was not surprised. The four major families were weak in the Xuanzhang inheritance, but had a slight advantage in the inner and outer sects.

The five generations of true disciples of Luoshen Pavilion, as well as 70% of the elders who comprehend the profound chapters, are all from the direct lineage of the sect leader.

It is said that this round of competition for the top spot is the result of the four major families accumulating wealth over a century, and the spot was practically guaranteed for them.

Even though the sect leader's direct descendant was willing to step down and did not invest resources in the competition for the position, he was still squeezed out of a position by Ming Ruoxue.

"The patriarch of Sister Ruoxue's family is only at the late Foundation Establishment stage, and is actually a burden to her."

"The direct lineage, for the sake of maintaining the balance of factions within the sect, has no intention of interfering. The four major families, with the Tuo family at the head, naturally want to do everything they can to squeeze her out."

"It can't be squeezed out."

Luo Fanchen asserted, and Li Miaoyun nodded seriously in agreement, saying, "If Sister Ruoxue herself has the cultivation of the late Foundation Establishment stage, she can be considered invincible among her peers in Qingyuan Domain. The direct lineage would not tolerate internal strife that would result in the emergence of Core Formation cultivators."

"The four major families are completely powerless against Sister Ruoxue, and can only resort to underhanded tricks to disgust people in the smallest details."

Luo Fanchen sneered, saying that he alone had driven four powerful clans with thousands of years of history to the brink of despair.

This is the aura of the Taoist prodigies that makes them so admired.

"Aren't they afraid that Fairy Ruoxue will resonate with the profound chapter, achieve the Golden Core, and then settle scores later?"

"Once you have mastered the Forgetfulness Technique, all grudges between fellow disciples will naturally disappear, and even a Core Formation True Person is not allowed to attack a lower-level cultivator without authorization."

Li Miaoyun sighed softly and muttered, "Their family also has Golden Core elders. As long as they don't violate the sect rules, they can be fearless. It's a pity that they got off easy."

Luo Fanchen nodded slightly, finally understanding the key point.

It seems that Ming Ruoxue is still a reliable ally.

“Um, Mr. Luo, regarding the black market incident last time, I took it upon myself to ask Sister Ruoxue for a retainer's token for you.”

Li Miaoyun's voice was gentle. After she finished recounting what had happened, Luo Fanchen took a sip of tea and smiled in agreement.

"Although the Dharma Tower is difficult, reaching ten stories shouldn't be a problem. I must thank the Pavilion Master."

Ming Ruoxue has a bright future, profound cultivation, and the prospect of reaching the Golden Core stage, so he is naturally willing to cling to this powerful figure.

"I'm glad you don't blame me for acting on my own initiative, sir. With your strength, none of the four sects should be able to pose a threat to you."

Li Miaoyun smiled gently as she poured tea for Luo Fanchen and handed him a list that had been prepared beforehand.

"These are the elites from the four sects on the Azure Cloud Ranking. After they ascend the tower, the Yimu Secret Realm will also participate in the battle. If you have the time, you can take a look and you will be able to recognize them if you encounter them in the secret realm in the future."

After speaking, Li Miaoyun placed her hands on her lower abdomen, gracefully performed a curtsy, and respectfully withdrew.

"Sister Ruoxue will personally open the seventh floor tomorrow, so you can rest assured tonight. I will lead you up the floor tomorrow."

Luo Fanchen finished his cup of spiritual tea, watched Li Miaoyun leave, and casually glanced at the list.

With just a glance, he recognized a familiar face, and a playful look appeared in his eyes.

"Rude out-of-towners."
