Immortality and cultivation: Heaven rewards diligence, and success is inevitable.

After packing their luggage, everyone hurriedly arrived at the courtyard.

Outside the courtyard gate, a Qi Refining Stage 3 cultivator was reprimanding a Qi Refining Stage 2 cultivator.

"Junior Brother Chen, it's not that your senior brother doesn't want to help you, it's just that you're too stupid and don't know how to be flexible. So what if you've cultivated to the second level of Qi Refining? You'll only be a woodcutter for the rest of your life."

The speaker was a senior handyman, and the person he was reprimanding was Chen Tao, who had worked with Jiang Shi in the woodshed years ago, chopping and carrying firewood.

Over the years, he has cultivated to the second level of Qi Refining.

However, due to his poor aptitude and dullness, and the time he spent chopping wood, he had no chance to break through to the middle level of the Qi Refining stage no matter how much he cultivated.

"Senior brother..." Chen Tao stammered, unable to speak. Back in Ding Academy, he was assigned the worst job because of this.

He has now broken through to the second level of Qi Refining, but he is still chopping wood.

Just then, Lin Yanyi arrived at the entrance of the courtyard with her people.

The senior servant only glanced at Lin Yanyi and Jiang Shi before immediately kneeling down and greeting them with utmost respect and trepidation.

"Xu An, a senior handyman, greets Senior Sister Lin and this senior brother."

Xu An, a seasoned handyman, had cultivated in the courtyard for many years and naturally knew Lin Yanyi.

Actually, Xu An was also here when Jiang Shi was cultivating in the courtyard, but Jiang Shi's appearance has changed, so he naturally couldn't recognize him.

Even if he couldn't recognize the other party, Xu An dared not be negligent in the slightest because of the aura of the late stage of Qi Refining.

Lin Yanyi nodded and entered the main courtyard of the mixed courtyard with Jiang Shi.

With so many people, all the senior servants in the courtyard came out, and when they saw Lin Yanyi, they all respectfully greeted her.

As the daughter of Steward Lin and an outer disciple of the Qingyun Sect, Lin Yanyi's reputation in the courtyard was no less than that of Steward Lin.

Lin Yanyi arranged for the senior servants in Courtyard A to move to Courtyard B, so that the Liu family could live in Courtyard A.

Lin Feiyu is not in the courtyard now, and no one knows where he went.

Lin Yanyi moved into Lin Feiyu's courtyard.

Jiang Shi chose the house he had lived in before.

Lin Yanyi entered the training room and finally couldn't hold back any longer, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

With Jiang Shi's help, her injuries had improved a lot, but they were not fully healed yet.

After two days of travel, her injuries have worsened.

Lin Yanyi endured the pain and sat cross-legged on the ground.

But instead of recovering from her injuries, she was thinking about what had happened the night before.

The conflict between Jiang Shi and her father, Lin Feiyu, has escalated to the point of no return.

Jiang Shi's murderous gaze was deeply imprinted in her mind.

Her father had done many wrong things, but she couldn't bear to see him die.

That's why, although she appeared to be standing with Jiang Shi yesterday, she didn't actually put in any effort.

Instead, it ultimately helped Lin Feiyu escape.

Lin Yanyi was filled with mixed feelings. She wanted to stop her father and didn't want to see him make any more mistakes, but she also didn't want to see him die.

On the other side, Jiang Shi sat on the bed, also thinking about what happened last night.

"Lin Yanyi is Lin Feiyu's daughter after all. If I want to kill him in the future, I will need to avoid Lin Yanyi," Jiang Shi thought to himself.

Lin Feiyu and Jiang Shi were already locked in a life-or-death struggle, and if given the chance, Jiang Shi would definitely not let it go.

His scheme will certainly be detrimental to Jiang Shi.

With this in mind, Jiang Shi began to diligently cultivate the "Hundred Illusions and Thousand Faces Technique".

Only this technique can allow Jiang Shi to find a way out in this critical moment.

He needs time.

Jiang Shi was diligently cultivating, while the outside world had undergone earth-shattering changes.

The market town for independent cultivators has been occupied by the three major sects.

They temporarily built a mansion to serve as an outpost for exploring the Misty Mansion.

The Lu family sent a total of five Foundation Establishment stage cultivators this time, led by Lu Chuanxing, the head of the outer sect affairs hall of the Qingyun Sect.

Lu Chuanxing is a mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator, leading four early-Foundation Establishment cultivators.

"Junior Brother Lu, it's been so long, have you missed me?" A shy voice came from the side.

Upon hearing this, Lu Chuanxing's face darkened immediately. If it weren't for the important matter he needed to discuss, he probably would have left immediately.

The one speaking was Chen Sisi from Biluo Valley. Her round body crushed the ground with every step she took.

Upon seeing this scene, Lu Chuanxing's expression changed, and he felt very wary.

"This fat woman can't control herself, so her skills have obviously improved again. It seems I'll have to prepare some methods to deal with her in the future," Lu Chuanxing thought to himself.

You should know that every Foundation Establishment stage cultivator, if they don't want to get fat, simply can't get fat.

The Foundation Building Period is also known as the Grain Abstinence Period.

The physique of Chen Sisi from Biluo Valley clearly indicates that she has mastered a body-refining technique.

Moreover, he had even cultivated to the point of mastery!

"Congratulations, Senior Sister Chen! Your cultivation has improved significantly and your power has increased greatly."

The person from Lingxu Sect was also an old acquaintance. Ouyang Yu walked over with a paper fan in his hand.

"Junior Brother Ouyang, you really know how to talk. Why don't you sit with your senior sister tonight? Your senior sister will help you improve your cultivation." Chen Sisi revealed a ferocious smile. Her face was so fat that her features were no longer visible.

"Senior Sister Chen, don't worry, I brought you a gift today." Ouyang Yu clapped her hands gently.

A Foundation Establishment cultivator outside dragged another cultivator inside.

"A ninth-level Qi Refining cultivator, I really like this gift. I can have it as dessert tonight." Chen Sisi threw out a thin rope, tied the cultivator up tightly, and dragged him over.

A Foundation Establishment cultivator behind Chen Sisi dragged the bound cultivator from the ground and brought him into Chen Sisi's room.

The monk seemed to know the tragedy that was about to happen to him. He twisted and struggled frantically on the ground, but it was all in vain, and he could not break free from his restraints at all.

"Senior Sister Chen, you must protect Junior Brother when we explore the Misty Mansion later," Ouyang Yu said to Chen Sisi with a carefree smile.

"Of course, don't worry. Senior sister has already mastered the 'Wood Devouring Divine Technique.' With me here, you'll be safe and sound," Chen Sisi assured Ouyang Yu.

Lu Chuanxing felt disgusted by the scene, but he also greatly admired Ouyang Yu.

"What a fine Ouyang Yu! He usually calls himself the Young Master of the Wind, but today he's groveling before this fat woman, Chen Sisi." Lu Chuanxing was very disgusted by this behavior.

Ouyang Yu, however, was thinking to himself:

"That Misty Mansion is fraught with danger. One Foundation Establishment cultivator has died and two others are injured. No one can guarantee that we will be safe. Let Chen Sisi act as a human shield and scout ahead."

This is why Ouyang Yu, a refined young man, had to try to please Chen Sisi, a fat woman.

Of course, Chen Sisi understood Ouyang Yu's thoughts, but she didn't care. She believed in her "Devouring Wood Divine Technique".
