I saved the entire sect by playing idly by letting things fall apart.

Chu Ling had just finished speaking boastfully a second ago, and the next second she found herself surrounded by a group of people.

Mingxuan stared intently at her, his voice light and airy: "The Way of the Common People?"

"Really?"

Xue Yu murmured, "We haven't seen a second one yet."

They had only heard snippets of information from their predecessors, and it was said that very few people had truly mastered this path. So, there really was one in Penglai?

"My senior brother is from the Path of All Living Beings." Chu Ling raised an eyebrow at them slightly. "Our elders said so themselves."

Seeing their surprised looks, she smiled and felt a sense of pride. "If my senior brother hadn't chosen such a secluded place as Penglai, I think he would definitely be one of the top disciples of the Five Sects."

This is no exaggeration. The five sect leaders are generally at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, the same as her senior brother. Moreover, they are skilled in divination. If he hadn't become a disciple of Penglai, he would definitely have a place among the five sect leaders.

Those who live in seclusion will not easily reveal themselves, and the disciples of the five sects symbolize the future.

No matter how you look at it, the direct descendants of the five clans have more prestige.

"When will your senior brother return?" Zhou Xingyun glanced at her gently.

Clearly, they were very curious about this rare cultivator who shared the same path as Ye Qiao.

Chu Ling: "He should come to find you tomorrow." She was quite responsible, marking out the relatively harmless areas of Penglai Island and telling them where they could go and where they couldn't: "I'm not sure about the other places yet. I need to wait for my senior brother to come back and ask him. You can look around this area to see if there are any spiritual plants you need."

"There are five alchemists on your trip, right?"

Dan Xiu are quite easy to identify; those wearing green clothes are likely all Dan Xiu.

"There are seven." Ye Qiao tugged at Xue Yu, signaling him to come back to his senses.

"Oh." Chu Ling paused slightly, staring at the girl in front of her for a long while. After thinking of something, she uttered two dry words: "Dual cultivation?"

She had seen her wield a sword.

It was even that despicable Ye Qiao who cleaved her hiding place in two with a single sword strike; otherwise, Chu Ling could have observed her in secret for a longer period instead of rushing out to lead the way so early.

"That's one way to understand it." Ye Qiao often felt that she wasn't actually qualified as a pill cultivator.

When Chu Ling saw Ye Qiao nod in agreement, her lips twitched slightly, and she looked like she had seen a ghost.

Most alchemists are quiet and gentle; I never would have guessed that Ye Qiao would be such a rare dual cultivation genius.

"Can we still move around at night?" Mingxuan waved the blueprints in his hand. "It's said that the plants on Penglai Island become more aggressive at night."

Chu Ling nodded: "As long as you don't wander off, nothing serious will happen."

With the guarantee from the disciples of Penglai Island, everyone cheered and ran off like wild horses. In their eyes, gathering spiritual plants was more interesting than cultivation.

As long as the spiritual plants needed by alchemists are gathered in time, and alchemists can cultivate breakthrough pills, they can easily break through a small realm. Their foundation is solid, and with the proper use of pills, there will be no problem.

The group dispersed to find spiritual plants at the locations marked on the map. Spiritual plants were worthless in Penglai, but they were a paradise for alchemists. Xue Yu took Mu Chongxi with him to collect spiritual plants, while Ye Qiao followed behind Chu Ling, wanting to inquire about the senior brother of the Cang Sheng Dao that Chu Ling had mentioned.

She had only taken a few steps when she suddenly saw Xue Yu, who was supposed to be running to gather herbs, running over, followed by Mu Chongxi. The two of them, one in front and one behind, looked like they were being chased by something.

Chu Ling tilted her head, her gaze puzzled: "What's wrong with you guys now?"

She has now calmed down in the face of their endless stream of bizarre actions.

"I was being chased by spirit plants," Mu Chongxi answered honestly. He had been relentlessly attacked by the nearby spirit plants because he had gnawed on someone's medicinal herb field, leaving him feeling numb and itchy all over.

The boy in front of me had a handsome face, with red lips and white teeth, but his mind seemed a bit off.

Chu Ling found it somewhat unbelievable: "Why are you being chased by spirit plants?"

"Because he ate an entire patch of spiritual plants." Xue Yu had observed the spiritual plants beforehand and knew they all had beneficial effects, so they wouldn't cause harm. Therefore, he didn't stop Mu Chongxi.

Ye Qiao pondered, "But why is he nibbling at the medicinal herb field?"

"Because you can't take them with you. You should know that some spiritual plants in Penglai can't be taken away. Once they are picked, they will wither immediately and have no medicinal effect whatsoever." Xue Yu smiled slightly: "So this brilliant man came up with a unique solution. He devoured all the nearby medicinal fields in one go."

As long as he eats enough, it doesn't matter if he can't take it with him.

Upon hearing this sudden and unexpected act of ruthlessly devouring the medicinal herb field, Chu Ling was speechless.
