Under Xiao Lingchen's persistent questioning, Jiang Luoxian eventually revealed the matter of the Saint Body of the Moon to him.

  Upon learning everything, Xiao Lingchen's brows furrowed deeply. He never imagined that his master had to endure so much in secret!

  Xiao Lingchen couldn't help but ask, "Master, is there no way to dissolve the Yin Cold Qi within your body?"

  Jiang Luoxian opened her mouth, hesitating to speak. The method to dissolve the Yin Cold Qi had long been recorded in her family's ancient texts. It required finding someone with a Pure Yang Sacred Body to engage in union, then using the Yin-Yang Creation Method to refine the Yin Cold Qi. Not only that, but without the erosion of the Yin Cold Qi, one's cultivation could advance further.

  However, for millions of years, there had been no news of the Pure Yang Sacred Body, and it was thought to be a physique that existed only in legends. Unexpectedly, she was fortunate enough to encounter Xiao Lingchen. This was one of the reasons Jiang Luoxian initially took Xiao Lingchen as her disciple, hoping to use his Pure Yang Sacred Body to dissolve her own Yin Cold Qi.

  Yet, faced with Xiao Lingchen's inquiry at this moment, Jiang Luoxian found herself unable to speak. On one hand, this matter was against ethics; she had impulsively accepted Xiao Lingchen as her disciple when they first met, forgetting that such relations were inappropriate between master and disciple. On the other hand, she worried that revealing the truth would make Xiao Lingchen feel used, leading to a rift in their relationship.

  Although they hadn't been master and disciple for long, Jiang Luoxian had imparted all her knowledge to Xiao Lingchen, already considering him as her own. Naturally, she didn't want any estrangement between them.

  For these reasons, Jiang Luoxian ultimately shook her head and said, "There's no way for now; I can only temporarily suppress it with your Pure Yang power."

  Her words weren't entirely false. Although Xiao Lingchen possessed the Pure Yang Sacred Body and had also cultivated the Yin-Yang Creation Method, his strength was still too weak. If they engaged in union now, the Yin Cold Qi would surely erupt completely. With Xiao Lingchen's current strength, he would be instantly consumed and annihilated by the Yin Cold Qi accumulated over tens of thousands of years.

  Therefore, Jiang Luoxian chose to temporarily conceal the method of dissolution. Even if she were to speak of it, it would be after Xiao Lingchen's cultivation realm had advanced to a level capable of withstanding the Yin Cold Qi.

  Xiao Lingchen, trusting Jiang Luoxian's words, nodded and said, "In that case, I will stay by Master's side from now on. Whenever the Yin Cold Qi in Master's body erupts, I will be there to suppress it for you."

  Jiang Luoxian nodded and said, "Chen, you are thoughtful. However, there's no need to trouble yourself. This time, your suppression of the Yin Cold Qi has been very effective; it won't erupt for at least three to five years."

  Xiao Lingchen replied, "That's good. In the meantime, I will also seek ways to dissolve the Yin Cold Qi for Master. One day, I will completely rid Master of the Yin Cold Qi, so you no longer have to suffer its torment!"

  Hearing this, Jiang Luoxian couldn't help but recall the method recorded in her family's ancient texts, her cheeks flushing slightly. "Your intention is appreciated, and I am very gratified. It's getting late; you should rest early."

  Xiao Lingchen nodded and then left Jiang Luoxian's room, leaving her and Qing Yu alone.

  Qing Yu couldn't help but ask, "Your Highness, why didn't you tell him the truth? Clearly, his Pure Yang Sacred Body can help you dissolve the Yin Cold Qi within you!"

  Jiang Luoxian glared at her and said, "His strength is still too weak. Do you think he can withstand the Yin Cold Qi that has accumulated in me for so many years?"

  Hearing this, Qing Yu quickly lowered her head to admit her mistake, "I didn't think it through. Please don't blame me, Your Highness."

  Jiang Luoxian shook her head and said, "I know you're eager to help me, but now is not the time. Don't mention this to Chen either; when the time comes, I will tell him myself."

  ...

  After leaving Jiang Luoxian's room, Xiao Lingchen didn't return to his own room. Instead, he headed straight to the sect's Library Pavilion, hoping to find a way to dissolve the Yin Cold Qi within his master.

  The Supreme Mystical Sect's Library Pavilion was vast, towering into the clouds. It housed over a hundred thousand volumes of various cultivation methods, divine powers, and texts. The Library Pavilion was divided into ten levels, with each ascending level containing more precious books, requiring higher disciple ranks to access.

  As the Sect Master's personal disciple, Xiao Lingchen had unrestricted access to all ten levels. Upon entering the Library Pavilion, he began meticulously perusing the books from the first level, one by one, volume by volume.

  He read with such absorption that he forgot about the woman waiting by the river at the foot of the Back Mountain. That woman was none other than Ning Huanhuan.

  At this moment, Ning Huanhuan was repeatedly using her Sound Transmission Talisman to inquire where Xiao Lingchen was and why he hadn't arrived. But for some reason, she never received a response from him, which infuriated her. She threw the Sound Transmission Talisman to the ground in anger.

  "Dead scoundrel, filthy scoundrel! He must be ignoring my messages on purpose! I'm so mad!!! I'll never speak to him again!!!"

  However, although Ning Huanhuan didn't wait for Xiao Lingchen, someone else arrived. This person had long hair cascading to her waist, skin as fair as snow, wearing a crescent-white embroidered silk dress that accentuated her slender yet voluptuous figure, exuding a gentle and enchanting aura like a celestial maiden. It was Senior Sister Yun Zhanyi.

  She emerged from the mountain path behind Ning Huanhuan and softly called out, "Junior Sister Ning, what are you doing here?"

  The sudden call startled Ning Huanhuan for a second, and she quickly turned her head. She immediately recognized the newcomer as her Senior Sister from Small Bamboo Peak, Yun Zhanyi.

  As the Senior Sister of Small Bamboo Peak, Yun Zhanyi took special care of her fellow disciples, especially Ning Huanhuan, whom she treated as her own sister due to her unfortunate background, even generously gifting her the invaluable Fourth Grade Spiritual Pill, the Three Primordial Pill.

  Ning Huanhuan nervously said, "Nothing, nothing at all! Senior Sister, what brings you here?"

  At this moment, Ning Huanhuan felt both nervous and relieved, grateful that Xiao Lingchen hadn't come to the meeting. Otherwise, wouldn't she have been caught red-handed?

  Yun Zhanyi sat down beside Ning Huanhuan and said, "I have something to ask you."

  Ning Huanhuan, puzzled, asked, "Senior Sister, what do you want to ask?"

  Yun Zhanyi said, "Junior Sister Ning, you've been in the sect for over six hundred years. How do you find Senior Sister's treatment of you?"

  Without hesitation, Ning Huanhuan replied, "Of course, it's been wonderful. Senior Sister is like a second parent to me. If it weren't for Senior Sister, I would have starved to death on the streets or been beaten to death long ago. In my heart, I've always regarded Senior Sister as my own sister. Senior Sister, feel free to ask whatever you want; I will tell you everything!"

  Yun Zhanyi felt gratified and continued, "It's alright. If my question makes you uncomfortable, you don't have to answer."

  Then, Yun Zhanyi asked the question that had been on her mind, "You know I've been stuck at the ninth level of the Dao Palace Realm for a long time, unable to break through. After coming out of seclusion this time, I was surprised to find that you had advanced from the ninth level of the Spirit Platform Realm to the sixth level of the Dao Palace Realm. Even I find this speed incredible. Moreover, your aura is solid, not at all like someone who used unconventional means to forcibly enhance their cultivation. So, I wanted to ask if you used any special method for cultivation. Could you share it with me?"
