Fairy, help me cultivate.

Noticing Chen Yao staring blankly at the underwear straps on the sword sheath, the woman frowned: "You like it? Then your senior uncle will go and get you a pair?"

Chen Yao waved his hand: "No need..."

The woman laughed and said, "I knew it. You spend every day with her, and you don't even share a pair of underwear? But then again, Yun Li is indeed stingy, not as generous as Ling Ning."

Chen Yao was taken aback. What? You even stole your master's underwear?

The woman untied the jade gourd from her waist and took a big gulp: "You still don't know who I am, do you? Remember me, my name is Xu Junyu, the number one sword cultivator of the Kuanglu Sect."

She raised her beautiful face high, her eyes slightly closed, waiting to hear Chen Yao's exclamation of utter astonishment.

However, Chen Yao did not react at all.

Chen Yao not only didn't react, but also felt a jolt in his body, his muscles tensing up.

He had certainly heard of Xu Junyu and knew that she was the number one sword cultivator in the sect. She had once single-handedly fought her way through the sixteenth level of the Demon Well, slaying ten great demons and returning alive. She was a formidable character who could stop the children of the Demon Sect from crying at night.

However, she wasn't his enemy, so he wasn't afraid of her, nor did he admire her.

Compared to these feats, what truly shocked Chen Yao was that this woman had a notorious reputation within the sect. Not only was she unkempt, but she also harassed and bullied female disciples everywhere. She loved to drink, and her behavior when drunk was extremely bad; once intoxicated, she would grab male disciples, beat them, and rob them. It was said that even many elders of the Kuanglu Sect had fallen victim to her cruelty.

Chen Yao glanced at Xu Junyu's flushed cheeks out of the corner of his eye, thinking that the guy was probably drunk...

Xu Junyu was also glancing at Chen Yao out of the corner of her eye, and she noticed that his face was ashen and his eyes were gazing blankly at the sea of ​​clouds, which made her feel a little strange.

To be noticed by Ling Ning, this kid is indeed extraordinary. How could anyone sitting next to me be as aloof as him?

Thinking it over, she reached into her bosom and rummaged through the surging waves for a long time before pulling out a silver metal block, which she then tossed to Chen Yao.

“My senior brother ate your chicken, this is compensation.”

Chen Yao grabbed it casually and found that the metal was actually soft, cool to the touch, and quite comfortable: "What is this?"

Xu Junyu took a big gulp of wine and said arrogantly, "It's just a high-grade sword embryo. That old ghost Ling Xuzi thought that by mining in the Snow Country for thirty years and finding ten-thousand-year-old snow essence iron, he could cultivate it into a sword embryo and surpass me. Heh, in the end, he was still beaten to a pulp by me. This sword embryo is yours!"

Although she didn't look at Chen Yao, her expression and tone conveyed a sense of "I'm awesome, aren't I?"

However, Chen Yao simply said "Oh" and calmly put the sword blank into his storage bag.

"..."

Xu Junyu's self-praising expression froze for a moment, and his eye twitched.

"May I have your name?

"Chen Yao".

Where did it come from?

"Where it came from".

"..."

Xu Junyu rolled her eyes, feeling stifled, thinking to herself, "What's wrong with this kid? He has a stronger aura than me."

As expected, male disciples who could be exceptionally recruited by Ling Ning into the sect should not be taken lightly.

"Do you like Yun Li? Do you want me to help you get her?" She decided to try a different strategy. Surely she could win over a mere Qi Refining cultivator?

???

Chen Yao glanced at Xu Junyu. "Is this something a senior master like you can say?"

Is she really a female hooligan?

"No need, I have great respect and affection for my senior sister."

"Isn't that even more exciting?" Xu Junyu glanced at Chen Yao, nudged him with his elbow, and his expression was... indescribable.

Chen Yao felt extremely uncomfortable, which made him appear even more aloof.

Actually, he wasn't aloof; he was just afraid to say too much, lest he anger the drunkard and get beaten up and robbed. If she discovered his identity as a spy for the Demonic Sect, that would be troublesome.

Xu Junyu felt the atmosphere between the two growing colder and colder. He sighed deeply and took a big gulp of wine: "The world is like a tide, and people are like water... I guess I'm still better suited to speaking with my sword."

Chen Yao perked up, secretly communicating with the ambushing spirit beasts. As soon as she made a move, he would use the spirit beasts as cover to rush towards Xiuxiu Peak.

The two remained silent for a moment.

Xu Junyu suddenly reached out and patted his shoulder, revealing a forced expression of teacherly dignity.

"You are a promising young man, very good! Your senior master was just testing you, but your resolve was firm. Not bad, not bad."

After saying that, she grabbed her sword and leaped into the sea of ​​clouds.

Chen Yao's lips twitched. She thought to herself that her expression just now looked exactly like she was trying to make amends for doing something stupid...

Just as he was about to call back the white jade monkey, the sea of ​​clouds in front of him suddenly churned.

Xu Junyu flew up again, but her clothes were torn in several places, her hair was even more disheveled, and one of her shoes was missing. Her fair and pinkish-white feet were pressed against the jade-like blue stone, showing a beauty that was like ice carvings and jade sculptures.

However, her drunken expression completely ruined the beauty of the scene.

"Uh... I took the wrong path and bumped into a rock..."

She turned around in a daze, transforming into a long rainbow and flying into the distance.

"One cannot drink while riding a sword, nor can one ride a sword while drinking..."

Chen Yao complained helplessly as a system upgrade appeared.

Three virtual cards appeared before my eyes.

He looked at the golden-red sea of ​​clouds in the west and realized that he and Xu Junyu had been sitting together for most of the day.

I chose the leftmost one.

[Congratulations, host! You have obtained the female cultivator's purple talent attribute - Wedding Dress (Spending a certain amount of time with a female cultivator will randomly grant you a certain amount of cultivation power for your own use) (Cultivation progress +50)]

[Congratulations, host, you have advanced to the third level of Qi Refining (30/500)]

???

This is just too incredible!

No wonder Xu Junyu always bullies female cultivators!

So that's what happened!

Chapter Six: Relieving Senior Sister Yunli's Fatigue

The white jade monkey was fine, and even greeted a sister.

Seeing Chen Yao sitting on the rock in a daze, and the big devil who had eaten the chicken was nowhere to be seen, it patted its chest, compared and talked with its sisters, and boasted about how powerful its master was.

Look, he chased away the big devil, but he wasn't satisfied, so he's sitting on a rock in a daze!

The other white jade monkey held its cheek (not really a cheek) in its tiny paw, its eyes showing a look of reverence.

"Let's go!"

Chen Yao had already spotted the two baby monkeys and got up to take them back to Xiuxiu Peak.

……

……

After using the Beast Taming Technique on another little monkey to establish a master-pet relationship, Chen Yao sent it to Yun Li's cave.

At first, Yun Li was unhappy, but as the little monkey served her tea and water at every turn, she enjoyed the sweetness and acquiesced.

Ten days have passed in the blink of an eye.

Yun Li had grown accustomed to the white jade monkey's service and to Chen Yao's presence.

That day, she emerged from the Blood Prison Illusion Mirror covered in blood, dragged her feet to the Spirit Pool to bathe, put on a loose gauze robe, slipped on a pair of green bamboo flip-flops given to her by Chen Yao, and slowly walked towards the pavilion.

Well, I have to say, my junior brother really knows how to enjoy himself. After fighting in the Blood Prison Illusion Mirror, wearing these slippers is definitely much more comfortable than sandals.

She smiled gently and went into the attic.

The attic was bright and clean, with many doodles drawn by Chen Yao when he was bored.

Yun Li looked at it slowly, her eyes twitching slightly.

Boring... How can someone who cultivates have time to be bored...

Thinking of how Chen Yao had broken through to the first level of Body Refinement out of sheer boredom, her already tired body felt even more exhausted now.

Tap tap, tap tap.

Wearing green bamboo flip-flops, Yun Li stepped onto the clean stairs and arrived at the third floor.

She walked straight into the balcony and slumped softly onto the small stool.

"Junior brother really knows how to enjoy himself..."

She felt like she was sinking into the stool, swaying lazily.

"Degenerate, so utterly degenerate..."

Despite her verbal criticism and warnings, Yun Li's body betrayed her—she didn't want to move a single toe.

Before she knew it, she had fallen asleep.

When I woke up again, the sky outside the balcony was filled with fiery clouds.

She was covered with a warm, white fox fur coat.

Its furry texture made her feel extremely safe and secure.

The entire Xiuxiu Peak was shrouded in twilight, and all was quiet except for the occasional bird calls from the distant forests.

The wind blew across the balcony, lifting up the papers inside the house, Sasha.

Yun Li was suddenly struck by a sense of peace; it had been over a hundred years since she began her cultivation on the mountain, and she had never felt so serene as she did today…

There was a crashing sound behind me.

She turned around blankly and found that Chen Yao was already sitting behind the table by the window, fiddling with the egg of the Three Purple Fire-Swallowing Python.

"So it turns out my junior brother isn't just idle all day."
