Jiang Qiulan sat quietly beside the desk, but her entire body was sharp and finally revealed what made Qingzhou's most profitable sword.

  Shen Yi withdrew her gaze without a word, reached out and took over the small wine jug, and patted open the mud seal.

  He faintly sipped a mouthful of medicinal liquor.

  Cheating brothers is no problem, anyway, it won't be less meat...

  If she really had the confidence to despise everything, how could she possibly wear this long dress.

  That's the price of being expected too much, when all eyes in Qingzhou are on her as a hope, she is like being placed on a high fire frame, every admiring gaze is like adding a bundle of dry firewood to the flames.

  Shen Yi didn't say anything to comfort him, they were just colleagues, the other person had helped him a lot, if it was something else that needed help, he wouldn't refuse, but they hadn't gotten familiar enough to open their hearts to each other.

  Moreover, compared with other people in Qingzhou, he only believed in the knife in his hand.

  The house fell silent.

  “……”

  Jiang Qiulan stared at the young man's face, his beautiful eyes flickering uncertainly.

  A moment later, the intense sharpness on her body slowly dissipated.

  Like a fairy in a painting suddenly stepped into the mortal world, losing some of her icy elegance and gaining a hint of reality.

  She needs to maintain a posture of being in control at all times in front of others, but in front of Shen Yi, the other party can always see through her true emotions at a glance.

  Jiang Qiulan raised the wine jug and then drank it all in one gulp, the amber-colored wine flowing from the corner of her lips down to her white neck, wetting her collar.

  She closed her eyes, and her thick eyelashes trembled slightly: "It's about to break through, I'm a bit anxious."

  The girl doesn't need others' response, she just wants someone to pour her heart out to, and the young man who is also used to silence is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate.

  "But when I put on this outfit, all those years of training seem to have become a joke."

  "I'll kill it."

  Jiang Qiulan opened her eyes again, and the pitch-black pupils no longer had a slightly deliberate sharpness, but were extremely calm, yet radiating a cold killing intent.

  It may be an illusion, but the quiet room suddenly echoed with a faintly discernible cracking sound. Listening carefully, it wasn't a sound, but rather a fluctuation of breath.

  Shen Yi put down the wine jug and looked over with some speechlessness: "......"

  Cultivation is a very serious matter, requiring a lot of life to build up the boundary. Can't you just do it like this, casually saying a few words and stirring up some noise?

  "Thank you."

  Jiang Qiu Lan calmed her mind and retracted her murderous intent, casting a warm gaze at the young man.

  She took another step closer to the Hunyuan Sect Master.

  "It's all the same, you can just leave the wooden stake here." Shen Yi said casually.

  Unexpectedly, Jiang Qiu Lan shook her head seriously: "It's different."

  The innate talent she had always been proud of was crushed for the first time, and she really felt a little stimulated.

  Moreover, the other party's calm and carefree attitude towards life, as if nothing matters to them, also made Jiang Qiu Lan feel envious.

  It's precisely for this reason that she will return to this courtyard tonight.

  "You should now be at the Condensed Dan Realm, with your intelligence, you might have crossed the three checkpoints much faster than me." Jiang Qiulang said with some emotion.

  Bury the Tao seed, nurture the Tao embryo, condense the Tao infant. Wait until the Tao infant has accumulated enough foundation, thoroughly shatter the internal elixir, and become a master of the Primordial Chaos sect.

  "How long will it take for those who are not clever?" Shen Yi suddenly felt a sense of unease.

  "Don't worry about this." Jiang Qiulan softly consoled, every martial artist when first entering the Huadan stage, more or less had some tension, and the other party probably still didn't know how astonishing his innate talent was.

  "I'll ask for someone else." Shen Yi withdrew her gaze.

  "Not brilliant..." Jiang Qiulang hesitated for a moment, as if feeling somewhat rude, and said with a hint of apology: "For example, someone like General Chen, who was about two hundred years old when he buried his divine seed and entered the fetal dan period, until he broke through the second barrier last time at Qingfeng Mountain... Moreover, he is on the path of martial arts, with a whole city's worth of incense, completely lacking in resources."

  It's clear that Chen Qiankun is already her limit.

  The other party is taking the shortcut of the dark spirit, which is much simpler than the mixed yuan way.

  But after more than 600 years, the yin god still can't wake up and can only barely borrow some of its abilities.

  “……”

  Shen Yi glanced at the Xuan armor on his body, and it was indeed quite convenient.

  The small Linjiang County actually has two mediocre Demon-Suppressing Generals, it's really not easy.

  Fortunately, however, in the face of the vast and mysterious forces that govern the lifespan of demons, a few hundred years is actually not that many.

  After mastering Tian Dan Xie, Shen Yi had a good understanding of Bao Dan period, and the difficulties were only three.

  First and foremost, there is a need for sufficient resources. For example, if one wants to nourish their body with Qi and blood, they must seek out various precious medicines to ingest, then refine them into the power of Qi and blood, and finally infuse it into the inner elixir. This process is extremely slow and requires an astronomical amount of precious medicine.

  But Shen Yi actually already had an idea about this problem.

  He plans to use the easiest-to-obtain demonic energy to feed, with the help of the Tianyao Outer Dan's devouring technique, he can instantly store the demonic energy in his body, without having to refine it again himself, and directly feed it to the inner dan, which is equivalent to saving a step.

  The second difficulty is that after accumulating enough, how to condense these things into a kind of Tao. The third one is that after condensing, you still need to infuse the divine thought into it.

  The latter two are likely to be the reasons for General Chen's slow progress.

  But for Shen Yi, all of this can be solved with the demon's lifespan, now the only problem is that there isn't enough demon dan in hand.

  It's time to return to Qingzhou after getting the treasure.

  Just then, a figure hastily ran in from outside the courtyard.

  Jiang Chengyun rushed into the courtyard and looked towards the two figures sitting opposite each other inside the house.

  His face gradually turned strange: "You..."

  No wonder I couldn't find anyone for half a day, it turned out that in the end only I went to the banquet?

  Jiang Chengyun didn't blame them, he just felt that... this time things seemed to have gotten a bit out of hand.

  He slightly turned his body, revealing a slender young man wearing a dark green shirt behind him.

  Jiang Shizi walked up to the house and his gaze swept over the two people before looking at the empty wine jug on the table.

  Shen Yi, clad in a dark armor, and Jiang Qiu Lan, dressed in a black cheongsam, the two of them didn't need to say a word, just sitting there quietly, gave people an extremely harmonious feeling.

  "Miss Jiang." Jinjiang Shizi's voice broke through this calm atmosphere.

  Jiang Qiulan turned around and looked back.

  She didn't intend to have any more involvement with the Ji Wang Fu, but after all, she had already missed an appointment, so she calmly stood up and slightly nodded her chin: "I've already asked someone to apologize to the Wang Fei on my behalf, I still have urgent matters to attend to in Qingzhou, I really don't have the heart for anything else, please trouble Jinjiang Shizi to apologize to the Wang Fei again, forgive me, Autumn Lian, for being rude."

  She had merely agreed to come and help the young master with his martial arts, which did not include drinking or eating.

  However, after yesterday's meeting, it is clear that the young master's mind is not on martial arts at all, and she naturally has no reason to stay longer.
