After my Daoist partners broke off their engagement, they pledged their loyalty to me!

"Have I asked for your name yet, teacher?"

"Jiang Wei, where's your junior brother? What's your name?"

"Jiang Lin, Jiang as in river, Lin as in descending."

Jiang Wei nodded, her face beaming with a smile: "I thought you shared the same surname as me, but it turns out it's just a matter of pronunciation. From now on, I'll call you Junior Brother Jiang."

Jiang Lin and Jiang Wei introduced themselves to each other.

Jiang Lin then realized that Jiang Wei was about to break through to the first-level alchemist, but the family's financial support for her had basically run out.

She had to get some discarded pills from the Alchemy Peak to exchange for money so that she could continue to buy the medicinal materials needed for alchemy and further consolidate her experience to break through to the first level of alchemist.

What a strong and beautiful senior sister! Jiang Lin decided to try to get along with her more often in the future and support her wholeheartedly!

"Senior Sister Jiang, let me use this to make a deal with you."

As he spoke, Jiang Lin took out a small bag from his pocket, which contained five low-grade spirit stones.

Jiang Wei opened the door a crack and saw that there were actually five spirit stones inside. Her rosy lips parted slightly in surprise.

"No, no, Junior Brother Jiang, you need to cultivate too."

The conversation just now revealed to Jiang Wei that Jiang Lin was a menial disciple of the Weapon Refining Peak, which showed how important these spirit stones were to him!

"Senior Sister Jiang, I don't know if I can pass the bottom-ranking elimination system for menial disciples. These spirit stones are more important to you."

Spirit stones? Jiang Lin has more than he can use right now.

Five spirit stones are all I need to test Senior Sister Jiang Wei and see if there's any chance of yin and yang harmony!

Jiang Lin wanted both Senior Sister Jiang Wei herself and the 20 points of chaotic energy shining brightly above her head!

Jiang Wei herself does need spirit stones.

If she can break through her spiritual power cultivation sooner, it will be easier for her to break through to the first-level alchemist.

For the menial disciples, cultivation resources consist of silver notes that can be used to purchase waste spirit stones and waste spirit pills.

As for the outer disciples...

The most important cultivation resource is the spirit stones distributed each month.

Jiang Wei's feelings were somewhat complicated. So many outer disciples who were pursuing her hesitated when it came to using spirit stones for cultivation.

After all, even with silver notes, you might not be able to buy spirit stones.

If they lend the spirit stones to Jiang Wei, they won't have any resources left for cultivation, as they only have ten spirit stones a month.

Jiang Lin, a junior disciple and a menial servant, was willing to offer spirit stones, which were of even greater value, for the transaction.

Soon, Jiang Wei began to imagine that Jiang Lin felt he was going to be eliminated at the bottom and was giving up.

"All right!"

Jiang Wei nodded vigorously, biting her red lips as if she had made up her mind. She looked at Jiang Lin and said, "Then... Junior Brother Jiang Lin, consider this a favor I owe you. Is there anything I can do to help you?"

Jiang Lin: ?

Is it really that easy to win over women in this fantasy world?

But then I thought about it again and it made sense. In a world where people kill and die so easily, loyalty and friendship would be all the more precious.

Jiang Lin didn't care whether Jiang Wei was imagining things or not.

Now that the test has been completed, he will not hold back and seize every opportunity to strengthen himself!

So he quickly clasped his hands and said, "I really do have something I'd like to ask Senior Sister Jiang for help with. Once you're done with your work, you can come to the servant's cave at Mine No. 6 on Refining Peak to find me."

"Okay! Don't worry, Junior Brother Jiang, I'll come find you as soon as I've finished dealing with things at the Alchemy Peak!" Jiang Wei felt less burdened knowing she could help Jiang Lin.

Jiang Wei asked Jiang Lin to pick out some more useless spirit pills from her stall, saying that she was getting a great deal and was giving Jiang Lin extra useless spirit pills.

Anyway, there are plenty of these useless spirit pills on the Alchemy Peak.

Jiang Lin didn't stand on ceremony.

If these discarded spirit pills were synthesized into good spirit pills by the Chaos Furnace, they would all be beneficial to the cultivation of the Qi Gathering Realm.

Increase blood and energy, increase strength...

Jiang Lin took some of everything.

Fearing that they might not be able to find the servants' quarters in Mine No. 6, Jiang Wei offered to escort Jiang Lin back to the Refining Peak.

This made Jiang Lin even more overjoyed.

Senior Sister Jiang Wei...she's beautiful inside and out!

Jiang Lin was originally trying to figure out how to deal with Zhou Peng, who was waiting for him to return to the Refining Peak, but now he had a protective charm.

Zhou Peng was the team leader, but the team leader was also a menial disciple.

If a servant disciple attacks an outer disciple without sufficient reason, it is a violation of the rules.

soon.

Jiang Lin, who had a bumper harvest, was accompanied by Jiang Wei.

They returned to the Refining Peak.

At the crossroads leading back to the Refining Peak, Zhou Peng, who was waiting there, grew increasingly impatient. He cursed under his breath, "Damn it, where has that piece of trash Jiang Lin been for so long!"

"Break a few more of his ribs later!"

If his cousin hadn't arranged for him to teach Jiang Lin a lesson, he would have been enjoying a good drink in the servants' quarters by now.

"Damn it, we still have to pay Cheng Qi and Wan Kun! We're losing money hand over fist!"

Thinking of this, Zhou Peng laughed in exasperation at his own overconfidence.

To deal with a new handyman disciple who had only been there for a short time, he went to the trouble of finding two other captains.

Who knew Jiang Lin would be so tactless, leaving the Weapon Refining Peak so long ago and still not returning.

He couldn't possibly make the other two captains wait with him.

As a result, his payment allowed the two of them to get something for free.

Just then, Zhou Peng noticed a figure approaching from a distance. He looked closely and realized it was Jiang Linyao.

Zhou Peng grinned maliciously, cracking his neck as he blocked Jiang Lin's path: "Jiang Lin! I've been looking for you everywhere!"

"The number of spirit stones you handed in at the mine is a bit off. The steward asked me to check with you. Come with me!"

This is the only way back to the Refining Peak.

Zhou Peng isn't stupid.

They knew they needed to find a reasonable excuse to take Jiang Lin away from here.

Jiang Lin did not resist or question.

Zhou Peng had no suspicions.

In his view.

Jiang Lin had no right to resist or question. Since he obediently came with him, he might as well break one less rib later!

After leaving that intersection, Zhou Peng led Jiang Lin into a secluded mountain forest at the foot of the weapon-refining peak, a place rarely visited by people.

Wait until no one is around.

Zhou Peng turned around and slapped Jiang Lin, unaware that a beautiful female cultivator had appeared beside Jiang Lin.

Zhou Peng's heart skipped a beat. Did Jiang Lin really have an accomplice?

Jiang Wei frowned slightly and glared at Zhou Peng.

When she arrived, Jiang Lin said that the mine captain would deliberately cause trouble for him later. She followed behind and saw that it was indeed the case.

If the number of spirit stones in the mine is incorrect, the steward will find out at the time. Why would a menial team leader come looking for it afterward?

Seeing Zhou Peng slap her without saying a word, Jiang Wei was certain that Zhou Peng was indeed deliberately picking a fight with Jiang Lin.

She took advantage of Jiang Lin, who was so handsome, while Zhou Peng looked fierce and had a scar on his face.

Do I even need to consider whether or not to help?

Without saying a word, Jiang Wei activated her spiritual power at the fourth level of the Qi Gathering Realm, and a white light emanated from her slender hands.

It activated the mortal-level intermediate martial art she had learned, the White Jade Hand!

The White Jade Hand is a martial art that all outer disciples on Alchemy Peak practice, and it is needed when refining pills.

It can also be used against enemies.

Jiang Wei's main profession is alchemist, and she has never used the White Jade Hand in a fight before. Zhou Peng became the first person to experience the power of her White Jade Hand.

"Bang!"

With a snap, under Zhou Peng's furious expression, his arm was broken by Jiang Wei's delicate hand. Then, that slender hand landed on his chest, and subsequently blasted his burly body back more than ten meters.
