Fairy, help me cultivate.

Jiang Bailian's voice came from among the feathers.

"Junior Brother Chen, back mountain, Kun direction, midnight, no waiting after midnight."

After transmitting the message, the purple bird took flight.

Chen Yao's brows relaxed and then tightened again.

Jiang Bailian's secretive communication indicates that the situation is very serious.

Who exactly is targeting me?

He suddenly remembered the person who had unknowingly entered his attic and left a message from the Demonic Sect.

Could it be him?

Did he know that he had killed the contact, so he wanted to get rid of me?

However, if this person is so powerful, wouldn't it be simpler to just reveal his identity as an undercover agent of the Demonic Sect and let the Soul Refining Peak arrest him?

The more Chen Yao thought about it, the more confused he became, and a sword hung over his heart once again.

He gazed at the Lushan Mountains, and after considering whether or not to establish his foundation there, he left to find a place to start a new life.

At least, I don't have to worry about being an undercover agent...

but……

He remembered Yuanhe's gentleness, Huibai's smile, and Yunli's care...

Whatever decision you make, let's find out what's going on from Jiang Bailian first!

It was nearly midnight.

Chen Yao landed far away in the valley behind the Danfang Second Branch, and then quickly climbed upwards.

Fortunately, he had successfully refined his body, so he was agile and quickly climbed to the southwest of the back mountain, which is the Kun direction.

A figure that almost blended into the shadows of the forest moved.

Chen Yao stopped what she was doing and observed him warily.

"Junior Brother Chen?"

It's Jiang Bailian.

Chen Yao slowly approached and realized that she hadn't actually noticed him; instead, she was shouting at a small tree swaying in the wind.

"..."

It wasn't until Chen Yao got closer that Jiang Bailian noticed him from the heat emanating from his body.

She blushed and smiled, "So Junior Brother Chen was here..."

"Senior Sister Jiang, what exactly happened? Can't they even produce a single Foundation Establishment Pill from the Pill Room?"

Chen Yao knew the matter was urgent, and that Jiang Bailian had taken a great risk by daring to meet with him privately, so he got straight to the point.

Jiang Bailian's expression turned serious upon hearing his question: "Junior Brother Chen, this matter is not because the Pill Refining Room intentionally opposes you, but rather it is an order from the Soul Refining Peak..."

Chen Yao quickly grasped the key point in her words: "Soul Refining Peak" and "opposing you," which meant that Soul Refining Peak was targeting him.

His heart tightened. Could it be that the powerful figure from the Demonic Sect was at Soul Refining Peak?

As soon as the thought crossed his mind, he instinctively wanted to tell Yun Li about it, but then he thought that if Yun Li asked him how he knew about the powerful figures in the Demonic Sect, he wouldn't be able to answer.

He himself is not clean, so how could he dare to reveal the background of this powerful figure from the Demonic Sect whom he has never even met?

This path is blocked.

“Senior Sister Jiang, since you know that Soul Refining Peak is targeting me, then it will be very difficult for me to obtain this Foundation Establishment Pill. I wonder if you have any left? I can exchange them with you…”

Before he could finish speaking, he heard a soft "whoosh" sound from the woods.

"Senior Sister Jiang, what are you doing here so late at night?"

Women's voices could be heard, and there was more than one.

Jiang Bailian panicked and pulled Chen Yao into the bushes.

"me……"

Unable to think of an excuse, she heard footsteps getting closer and closer. In a moment of inspiration, she unbuttoned her skirt and pulled it down, revealing her snow-white buttocks under the starlight.

Chen Yao had just been pulled down to lie face down in the grass, and one of her fair and tender buttocks popped out, reflecting the starlight and dazzlingly white.

A soft, gurgling sound arose.

A sliver of clear light shone from below her buttocks, slightly tinged with odor.

Chen Yao looked at the slightly parted buttocks, where clumps of dark, damp, and dewy hair grew at the bottom, looking somewhat messy.

Jiang Bailian's pretty face was already as red as charcoal, and she looked even more disheveled.

The footsteps in the woods seemed to stop when they heard her urinating.

A few giggles drifted over: "Why is Senior Sister Jiang still so shy... It's just a little pee, why do you need to avoid so many people and deliberately come to the back mountain..."

"I...I..." Jiang Bailian felt Chen Yao's gaze fixed on her buttocks and a certain glistening spot, as if it were on fire. "I ate too many fasting pills..."

As she spoke, Chen Yao saw the little wrinkle in front of her shrinking shyly.

A sudden "Oh!" came from the woods.

"I have a few Xiaqing Pills here, which are specially for regulating the stomach and intestines. Would you like to take some now, Senior Sister?"

"No...no...it smells awful..."

"We're like sisters, why bother with this..."

Jiang Bailian turned her flushed face back and gave Chen Yao a meaningful look with her unfocused gaze.

Chen Yao was stunned for a moment before realizing that the disciple probably suspected Jiang Bailian and wanted to get closer to test him.

Jiang Bailian's eyes clearly understood; to prevent her disciple from getting closer, she had to apologize...

Chen Yao looked at the slight opening of the buttocks, the small folds puffing out.

His heart tightened, and he covered his back.

"Uh~"

Jiang Bailian trembled all over and groaned.

Chen Yao puffed out his cheeks and let out a long "pfft" sound.

The female disciple indeed stopped in her tracks.

Jiang Bailian was so embarrassed she wanted to die.

Chen Yao subconsciously nodded slightly to express his apology.

Jiang Bailian wiggled her hips, trying to shake off his hand, but it only made it look like she was wiggling her hips affectionately...

"Senior sister, tonight everyone will be gathering moonflowers in the back mountain under the moonlight. I've sent a few junior sisters to keep watch around so you won't be disturbed. Senior sister, don't worry... don't worry about relieving yourself..."

The female disciple walked away.

Jiang Bailian was almost exhausted. After a moment of stunned silence, she bounced up as if her buttocks had been burned, and with a "smack," she pulled her skirt back up.

She turned around, her face flushed, her eyes glistening with tears: "Junior brother, you..."

Chen Yao squatted in the grass, not daring to get up. He raised his index finger, which had been slightly wrinkled, to his lips and whispered, "Senior Sister Jiang, they are still on the outer perimeter."

Jiang Bailian narrowed her eyes, guessing which finger Chen Yao had used to cover her lips, and blushed so much that she shuffled her feet on the ground: "Don't you find it smelly..."

Chen Yao paused for a moment before realizing what she meant. Looking at her fingers, she smiled sheepishly, "How could Senior Sister smell bad? Thank you for protecting me, Senior Sister..."

Jiang Bailian whispered, "Shut up some nonsense~"

She looked around and frowned, saying, "You probably won't be able to get out tonight."

Chen Yao then remembered what the female disciple had mentioned about everyone picking moonflowers: "Then what should we do?"

Jiang Bailian lowered her head and pondered, glancing at Chen Yao with a vacant look: "Our Foundation Establishment Pills have all been collected by our master and handed over to the Soul Refining Peak... However, I can help you refine them. Come with me."

As she spoke, she turned around shyly and swayed her hips as she walked into a crevice in the mountain: "Squeeze in from here, and after a hundred and twenty steps, you'll reach my alchemy room. That's where I came out just now. You go first, I'll take the main road."

Chen Yao glanced at Jiang Bailian, whose face was flushed, thought for a moment, and nodded, saying, "Okay."

Chapter Sixty-Eight: Oh no, Master is here!

Jiang Bailian's alchemy room was quiet and pleasant, with wisps of incense wafting through the air.

Several calligraphy works by Hui Bai were also hanging on the wall.

The inner room contained a white jade futon and a glass couch, while the outer room contained various alchemy furnaces, alchemical materials, and related spiritual artifacts.

Chen Yao, not having received permission, was too embarrassed to enter her inner boudoir and could only wait quietly in the outer room.

After a long while, the sound of high heels clicking echoed.

Jiang Bailian, having changed her clothes, opened the door and came in, then turned around and bolted the door shut.

She wore a fitted long white coat, her hair was tied in a bun, and the hem of the coat revealed two perfectly rounded calves, covered by white narrow-legged shorts that reached a few inches above her ankles.

Beneath the trouser legs were a pair of white stockings that revealed glimpses of her fair, pinkish-white skin.

Her beautiful feet, clad in stockings, were clad in a pair of slender, high-heeled silver sandals.

The sandals clicked and landed, and Jiang Bailian turned around.

Her pretty face was still a little flushed, her gaze unfocused as she looked at the ground, leaning against the door and window.

"Senior Sister Jiang..."

Chen Yao approached.

Jiang Bailian wore a short, double-breasted shirt with a thin belt fastened, revealing a bulging chest.

She pursed her lips before gesturing for Chen Yao to come to the large medicinal materials and artifacts.

Chen Yao looked at her in confusion. What was in front of him now was a boiler-like magical artifact that resembled a distillation device, with its opening flashing with an uncertain blue-purple light.

Jiang Bailian paused for a moment before speaking, "The materials for the Foundation Establishment Pill... are insufficient..."
