I'm in the world of cultivation, and I get a system for becoming a wealthy urban tycoon?

The night breeze swept across the lake and through the reeds, gradually fading the stench of blood.

Wang Li stood not far away, still not recovered from the dazzling battle that had just taken place.

She looked at the motionless snake carcass on the ground, then at Jiang Shiqing's bright and beautiful, composed face, opened her mouth, but couldn't utter a single word.

Good heavens...

This Fairy Jiang is just too powerful, isn't she?

With only a mid-stage Qi Refining cultivation level, killing a Qi Refining Perfection Azure Scale Serpent is as easy as slicing melons and chopping vegetables?!

too strong!

That water shield, that giant blue hand, and that powerful magic weapon—they're simply invincible!

Because Qingyue Lake is a body of water with a wide variety of waterborne monsters, many disciples from major sects come here to hunt waterborne monsters, collect monster materials, and refine waterborne magical artifacts.

Wang Li had lived in Qingyue Lake Market for many years and had seen quite a few disciples from major sects.

She had even met disciples of the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect.

However, even those Qi Refining stage disciples of the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect are far inferior to this Fairy Jiang in front of them!

To possess such combat power at the mid-stage of Qi Refining is simply unheard of and unseen!

Wang Li felt that her worldview had been shattered.

While Wang Li was stunned into silence, Jiang Shiqing had already recovered from missing her young master.

She glanced down at the three snake corpses on the ground, pondered for a moment, and then put the corpses into her storage bag one by one.

Although she doesn't need the money for these materials right now, she still has to take them back and show them to the young master.

She completed the young master's task very seriously!

After collecting the corpse of the Jade Scale Serpent, Jiang Shiqing turned around and walked back to Wang Li's side.

Her gaze inadvertently swept over the Wind Control Talisman in Wang Li's hand, which had not yet been put away, but her expression remained unchanged.

She had spent so much time in Taibai Market and had seen quite a few independent cultivators.

When faced with danger, prioritizing survival is perfectly normal.

The two were not related and were only temporary employees, so Jiang Shiqing naturally had no grudges.

She smiled slightly, took out a small spirit stone bag from her storage bag, which contained one hundred low-grade spirit stones, and handed it to Wang Li.

"Fellow Daoist Wang, this is your reward: one hundred low-grade spirit stones. Count them yourself."

Wang Li then suddenly came to her senses.

Looking at the spirit stone bag, she felt a surge of joy, and her face, which was roughened by the lake winds over the years, flushed with excitement.

He earned a hundred low-grade spirit stones simply by leading the way!

This is more than she earned in a whole year!

She quickly accepted it with both hands, her palms trembling slightly with excitement, and her voice quivering, "Thank you, Fairy Jiang! Thank you, Fairy Jiang!"

Jiang Shiqing chuckled softly, her tone gentle: "Fellow Daoist Wang, there's no need to be so polite. Let's go back to the market."

It was already late, and Jiang Shiqing planned to rest in the market for the night before returning to her sect the next day.

Wang Li nodded repeatedly, following closely beside her.

After taking a few steps, Wang Li finally couldn't resist turning her head to look at Jiang Shiqing, a warm and ingratiating smile on her face, and cautiously asked, "Jiang Fairy's strength is truly astonishing... Are you a disciple of the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect?"

Jiang Shiqing was not surprised by Wang Li's change in attitude.

Her smile was as bright and dignified as ever, and she casually said, "I guess I'd call myself a disciple of the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect."

Is it...?

Wang Li was somewhat puzzled.

If you're a disciple, you're a disciple; if you're not, you're not...

Why would you say it counts?

But she wisely refrained from asking further questions.

With a look of awe in her eyes, she exclaimed, "To possess such strength at the mid-stage of Qi Refining, one is probably unique within the entire Golden Rainbow Sword Sect... no, within Qin Prefecture, isn't that the only one?"

Is it unique in Qin Prefecture?

Jiang Shiqing was both amused and exasperated.

She shook her head and chuckled, "Fellow Daoist Wang, you flatter me. My strength is far, far inferior to my young master's."

Upon hearing Jiang Shiqing's words, Wang Li was stunned. She stared at Jiang Shiqing in astonishment, her mind buzzing.

"Young master?"

She wondered if she had misunderstood.

How could someone as outstanding as Jiang Shiqing have servants?

She was actually someone's maid or subordinate?

Wang Li looked at Jiang Shiqing with some suspicion and asked tentatively, "Jiang... Fairy Jiang... what does your young master mean?"

Jiang Shiqing glanced at Wang Li with some confusion, seemingly not understanding why she was so surprised.

Her tone was natural, with an undisguised pride: "Young master is indeed young master. I am his personal maid."

As she spoke, she slightly raised her chin, the moonlight falling on her bright face, her watery eyes filled with pride.

Not just anyone is qualified to be the personal maid of such an ethereal being as our young master.

I was just lucky!

Wang Li: "????"

She was filled with questions.

Fairy Jiang is actually someone else's personal maid?!

And judging from her tone, she seemed quite proud?!

Are you kidding me??

A prodigy with such combat power at the mid-stage of Qi Refining is actually proud to be someone else's personal maid?!

Who is this young master?!

In Wang Li's opinion, someone like Jiang Shiqing must have an extremely high-quality spiritual root, right?

Moreover, the cultivation techniques and spells they practice should all be of the Earth rank!

To be able to learn a level-one cultivation technique during the Qi Refining stage certainly indicates the support of a powerful force behind one's back, but one's own aptitude and comprehension must also be top-notch.

Such a genius and prodigy, even a direct disciple of the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect, probably wouldn't be qualified to have her as a personal maid.

Wang Li swallowed hard, unable to resist asking with a hint of curiosity, "Who exactly is this 'young master' that Fairy Jiang spoke of?"

Jiang Shiqing glanced at her and smiled slightly: "Not many people know my young master's identity."

Wang Li felt a chill run down her spine and immediately stopped asking questions.

Clearly, what Fairy Jiang meant by that was to tell her not to ask any more questions.

The two walked one after the other along the lakeside path towards Qingyue Lake Market.

The moonlight was bright and clear, and the lake surface rippled gently.

The reeds along the way rustled in the night wind, and occasionally a waterbird would peek out from the reeds, glance at the two of them, and then retreat back inside.

In the distance, there were scattered fishing lights on the lake, indicating that it was a hermit monk fishing in the lake at night.

Wang Li was initially worried, fearing she might encounter a Jie Xiu.

But after seeing Jiang Shiqing's fighting prowess, she wasn't too worried.

Unless they encounter a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator, they will not be in any danger.

No wonder Fairy Jiang was so relaxed just now; it turns out she has powerful backing.

Just as Wang Li was pondering to herself...

boom!!

From the depths of the night, a violent roar suddenly resounded.

In the deep night, silver light and blood-red light intertwined and collided, exploding into a dazzling flame above the distant lake, before quickly dissipating.

A few breaths later, the light shone again.

Then, flashes of light appeared intermittently, followed by a series of booming sounds that shook the lake surface, creating fine ripples.

Seeing this, Wang Li was terrified, her whole body went cold, and she quickly looked at Jiang Shiqing, her voice trembling: "Fairy Jiang, this...this fluctuation, it's probably a battle between powerful figures in the Foundation Establishment stage, let's leave quickly! Lest we get dragged in."

Jiang Shiqing nodded slightly.

Although she had Wang Shiyi and others secretly protecting her and was not afraid of danger, she did not want to get involved in other people's karma for no reason.

Just as Jiang Shiqing was about to leave, a slight vibration suddenly came from her sea of ​​consciousness.

Jiang Shiqing paused slightly, then took out the sect token of the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect from her storage bag.

Jiang Shiqing infused a wisp of spiritual energy into the token, and immediately a message for help appeared in her mind.

"East of Qingyue Lake, my junior sister has encountered an evil cultivator and is no match for him. She desperately needs the help of her fellow disciples! Those at the Foundation Establishment stage or above, please come! Liu Yaoyao will surely repay you handsomely!"

Jiang Shiqing looked up in surprise at the shimmering light in the distance.

East of Qingyue Lake, isn't this the area?

Is this Liu Yaoyao a disciple of the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect?

Is someone encountering heretical practitioners and crying for help?

If the cultivators were complete strangers, Jiang Shiqing wouldn't bother with them.

But after all, he is a disciple of the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect...

Moreover, he had three protectors, Wang Shiyi, Wang Shisan, and Wang Shiwu, by his side. It was somewhat unreasonable for him to stand idly by when he could help.

After all, Elder Mo Qianyun had treated her well, and the young master was a direct disciple of the sect.

She shouldn't have ignored her fellow disciples in trouble.

Thinking of this, Jiang Shiqing looked at Wang Li and said, "Fellow Daoist Wang, the ones fighting are disciples of the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect. I want to go and take a look."

Wang Li: "????"

She stared blankly at Jiang Shiqing, completely bewildered.

No...girl.

Are you serious?!

That was a battle between Foundation Establishment stage experts!

Although I admit that your strength is indeed ridiculously high.

But directly interfering in the battles of Foundation Establishment stage cultivators seems a bit excessive, doesn't it?

Are you really that fearless?

Of course, Wang Li dared not say any of these words aloud.

She swallowed hard, carefully choosing her words, and advised in an extremely tactful manner, "But...but Fairy Jiang, that's a battle between Foundation Establishment cultivators! Wouldn't it be too dangerous for you to go?"

Jiang Shiqing simply smiled slightly and did not answer.

She whispered, "Eleven."

The next moment, to Wang Li's utter astonishment, a cluster of crimson flames suddenly ignited beside Jiang Shiqing.

Amidst the silent flickering of the firelight, a middle-aged female cultivator with an ordinary face, dressed in a simple blue robe, slowly emerged.

This female cultivator was of medium height and had unremarkable features; she was the kind of woman whose appearance would be easily lost in a crowd.

But as she stood there quietly, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth spontaneously converged on her like rivers flowing into the sea.

The ripples on the lake's surface were all suppressed into a mirror-like calm the moment she appeared.

She stood there, as if she were the center of this world.

The seemingly terrifying middle-aged female cultivator faced the beautiful and charming Jiang Shiqing and respectfully bowed, saying, "I am here."

Wang Liren was completely numb.

Wait... who is this senior?

This incredibly exaggerated entrance, along with the terrifying, suffocating pressure...

A Golden Core cultivator?

Why is a Golden Core cultivator so respectful to Fairy Jiang?!

Just who is this Fairy Jiang?!

Isn't she someone else's personal maid?

With that kind of status and position... you're going to be someone else's personal maid?!

And you're still proud of it?!

Wang Li couldn't understand it at all, but she was deeply shocked at that moment.
