Proving one's status starting with magical girls

When the silver-robed man brought Li Jiangqun to the place where the manor lord was, Yuan An had already prepared his explanation under the jade tree.

While his disciple was still a little dizzy from receiving too much information at the Yuan Mansion, he took advantage of the moment.

He first pretended to know this all along, then spoke to her seriously.

"If I'm not mistaken, the person who helped you today is a celestial official who descended to the mortal realm during the turmoil of my Yuan Palace."

"Master, what does this mean?" the girl asked, puzzled.

Yuan An sighed, seemingly looking melancholy.

"Although I am the master of a palace, I have always been used to being idle. Since the establishment of the Moonflower Palace, I have never really managed anything."

"For thousands of years, our Yuanfu has been spreading the teachings and opening its doors to all, initially only thinking of inheriting the path of Qingxuan."

"Little did I know that this would sow the seeds of disaster."

The white-haired immortal turned around and stood with his hands behind his back, so that Li Jiangqun could only see the faint scar on his handsome profile.

"Skirt, tell me, what did you see when you first arrived here?"

The girl's mesmerized gaze at Yuan An's profile was disrupted by these words, and she quickly replied.

"When I first came to the Yuan residence, I was confused and didn't look closely." She paused for a moment before adding to the sentence.

"However, from what I've seen, it seems that the Yuan residence was somewhat damaged at the time? And Uncle-Master Xuan'an and the others are nowhere to be seen..."

The white-haired immortal sighed.

"Do you know why you didn't see them then, but are different today?"

"I don't know," the girl replied honestly.

Yuan An paused for a moment, then spoke in a deep voice.

"That's because when you entered the Yuan family, the family had just experienced a major upheaval!"

"misfortune?"

"Indeed, it is the scourge of internal strife!"

Upon hearing the words "internal strife," Li Jiangqun was stunned.

Before she could react, Yuan An continued coldly.

"At that time, I was preparing to go to the outer heavens to seek the Dao, so I ordered the Yuan Palace to remain in seclusion for a thousand years."

"But I never expected that after I left, the people in the prefecture not only did not get along, but instead began to scheme against each other."

"When I returned from beyond the heavens, I discovered that my Yuan Palace was nothing but ruins!"

"And this internal strife is laughable. It was just that a few Jielin Immortals from Danxuan Jielin Court decided to test me after I had not returned for a long time."

"They persuaded several celestial generals within the manor, causing a great upheaval! If it weren't for your uncle Xuan'an's timely suppression, who knows how long this turmoil would have continued!"

"They fought their way from the Yuan Palace to beyond the heavens, and by the time I returned, the vast Yuan Palace was completely empty!"

"Until today."

This series of carefully crafted words left the girl completely bewildered. After a long while, she finally spoke with unease.

"So, who was the person who helped me before?"

"That's right, he must have been a celestial official who, seeing the original master return, dared not go back to his residence and thus had no choice but to descend to the mortal realm!"

"The sword technique she taught you is the sixth-grade Taiyin Sword Manual of my Yuan Mansion, the 'White Moon Jade Morning Illuminating Lin Sword Scripture'."

"There aren't many immortal officials who cultivate this sword scripture to begin with, and given her connection to Danxuan Jielinting, who participated in the internal strife, it can only be her!"

"The Immortal of the Primordial Mysterious Moon – Li Yuanqing!"

"If she hadn't gotten involved in the internal strife, you'd probably still have to call her 'Master Aunt' by now!"

Yuan An had long harbored the idea of ​​portraying this incarnation as a traitor.

On the one hand, as the head of a prefecture, he couldn't be unaware of Li Yuanqing's existence in front of Li Jiangqun.

On the other hand, besides protecting Li Jiangqun's safety from the shadows, he also had other things to do after creating this avatar.

However, these things cannot involve him, lest they affect his positive impression of me.

Thus, Li Yuanqing, the traitor of the Yuan government, made his grand entrance!

When Li Jiangqun learned that it was actually a traitor from the Yuan family who had come to her rescue, she gasped in shock.

She quickly shook her head, her ponytail swaying like a rattle drum.

"Then, Master, I won't ask about this sword manual!"

"No, you should ask!" Yuan An turned to look at her and said in a deep voice.

"How can someone who is morally corrupt abandon their spiritual practice?"

"This 'White Moon Jade Morning Illuminating Sword Scripture' is originally the sword manual of my Yuan Clan. Are we to stop cultivating it because of her alone? Absurd!"

"Besides, didn't you already use the sword moves according to the sword manual that day?"

"Being able to use sword techniques means you have the aptitude for sword cultivation, disciple. I suspect you've already mastered the sword aura!"

In Yuan An's memory, sword cultivation was divided into four realms, regardless of cultivation level, from lowest to highest:

Sword light, sword energy, sword essence, sword intent.

Once you've mastered the sword's aura, you've entered the realm of sword cultivation; once you've mastered the sword's intent, you can be respectfully called a sword immortal.

Li Jiangqun, who had been receiving intensive training in the cultivation world from Yuan An, naturally knew these things as well.

She recalled her previous attempts on her way home.

At that moment, she held the ivy and felt the mystery within her body, then gently stroked the sword with two fingers.

She didn't use any golden light technique or magic, but as she traced the blade of Xue Li's sword with her two fingers, a layer of pale white sword light gradually covered it.

The sword light was as thin as a cicada's wing, almost transparent, yet it seemed to contain unimaginable sharpness.

Li Jiangqun merely swung her sword tentatively, and a cement utility pole as thick as a person's embrace by the roadside crashed down, the cut perfectly smooth, and the wires crackling and popping all over the ground.

The lights that were still on in several houses not far away went out in an instant, and the screams could be faintly heard coming from that direction.

"Holy crap! The power's out! Has the Archangel attacked?!"

"Oh my god, there's a monster! Run!"

"Call the hotline immediately for a solution!"

Li Jiangqun: ...

It seems like I've gotten into trouble.

However, the mysterious technique she used with her sword just now must have been the sword aura that Master mentioned.

Recalling this point, Li Jiangqun nodded decisively.

"Master, I have mastered the sword aura."

Yuan An should have been happy to hear this.

But at this moment he was somewhat silent.

"The skirt has indeed been transformed into a sword's edge..."

"That means there are sword dao attainments in this world as well. But sword dao attainments are originally obtained through emptiness, so where did these sword dao attainments come from in this world?"

"And then there's the Purple Qi, the Killing Qi... Could it be that I didn't actually transmigrate at all? But the various sensations I've experienced since transmigrating don't seem faked..."

Various questions swirled in Yuan An's mind, but just like his inexplicable transmigration to this world, some mysteries were destined to remain unsolved for a while.

So he had no choice but to put these questions aside and focus on the present.

He extended a finger and touched the girl's smooth forehead, and immediately profound sword scriptures flowed into her mind.

The "White Moon Jade Morning Illuminates the Sword Scripture" is undoubtedly a sixth-grade sword scripture. In terms of grade, only the seventh-grade "Taiyin Breathing and Qi Cultivation Technique" can slightly surpass it.

The remaining techniques, such as the "Secret Instructions of the Moonlit Chronicles" and the "Book of Glazed Heart Techniques," are only at the sixth rank.

However, the latter is a cultivation technique, while the former is a sword manual. In fact, practicing them together will not only not conflict, but will also be of great benefit.
