Volume 2: Chapter 122 - Asking Eldest Martial Sister (Chapter 9) Carefree

  "You're here..."

  When Shangguan Yaoyue opened the door, she was still a bit drowsy, but when she saw Lin Xi clearly, her face immediately lit up with surprise and joy, almost as if she would have rushed into his arms. However, being a young lady, she had some reserve and couldn't do such things. Nevertheless, the happiness on her face was evident. Lin Xi felt a surge of emotion in his heart. Whenever he was around, Shangguan Yaoyue was always lively and cheerful. She wasn't without worries, but she never let Lin Xi worry about them.

  This kind and considerate personality made Lin Xi feel at ease whenever they were together.

  However, at the same time, she was also clear-cut in her love and hatred. Thinking of the scene on the peak of Caizheng where Shangguan Yaoyue had scolded Long Bingyan for her sake and was subsequently blasted away by the Guardian Elder, Lin Xi felt a surge of guilt in her heart.

  "Yao Xue, how are you? Is your injury serious?" Lin Xi asked.

  "Hehe, nothing's wrong. When that thing was about to hurt me, I felt... you... and..."

  Shangguan Yaoyue realized her mistake and immediately laughed: "Hehe, anyway, it's nothing. Why are you still standing at the door? Come in and sit down quickly." Lin Xi nodded and followed Shangguan Yaoyue into the room.

  It was actually Lin Xi's first time entering Shangguan Yaoyue's room since he got to know her.

  This is a typical girl's boudoir, filled with the fragrance of orchids everywhere.

  "Yaoxue, can you get in touch with Qinglian Shijie? I have something to ask her." Lin Xi said directly after sitting down.

  He and Shangguan Yuxue have gone through the trials of the Gate of Trials together, and now they are extremely familiar with each other's life and death. There is no need for those twists and turns.

  "No problem. My senior sister gave me a token. When something happens, I can contact her."

  Shangguan Yaoyue nodded and quickly stood up, walking to the window and releasing a blue talisman left behind by Qinglian Shengnu. Afterwards, a rainbow light burst into the air and disappeared within the inner gate.

  Qinglian Holy Girl arrived much faster than expected, Lin Xi had not even finished drinking two mouthfuls of tea when a rainbow light landed in front of Shangguan Yaoyue's door and then walked in.

  "Lin, you're looking for me?"

  Qinglian Holy Girl stepped into the room, looking at her expression, as if she had been waiting for Lin Xi to find her, and was even more anxious than Lin Xi.

  "Yes, senior sister. There are some things that I hope to get your guidance on." Lin Wu said.

  The time when Qinglian Holy Girl entered the sect was much earlier than Lin Xi's. Moreover, her strength was also higher than Lin Xi's. If Lin Xi wanted to earn as many merit points as possible within three months and improve his cultivation to become an inner disciple, Qinglian Holy Girl would be a great person to ask.

  Her vision and insight in the Xian Dao world will be of great help to Lin Xi.

  Lin Xi had already experienced this.

  "What's going on, tell me. As long as I can help, I'll definitely help you."

  The Way of the Holy Lotus

  "Sister Master, I want to know. With my current strength, how can I quickly complete the sect's task, earn merit points, and improve my strength?" Lin Xi asked.

  "This one..."

  Qinglian Holy Girl frowned: "Below the third level of refining Qi, basically, there's nothing that can quickly earn merit points. I do know some special tasks, but with your current cultivation..."

  "Rank isn't the issue, the Deputy Sect Master has already agreed to it. Within three months, I can accept any sect task. Including tasks from the Immortal Dao realm, but on one condition - that I can handle it!" Lin Xi said immediately.

  "What? Not restricted by cultivation levels?"

  Qinglian Holy Girl was shocked: "What's going on?" The Xian Tao sects of the Big World set levels for each sect's tasks. A Xian Tao disciple of a certain level can only accept tasks of the same level. Even Qinglian Holy Girl couldn't accept tasks beyond her level.

  Of course, it was unwise to accept a task beyond one's level in the first place. Not everyone is like Lin Xi, possessing strength that far surpasses their boundary level.

  Qinglian Shengnu paused for a moment, then continued: "Actually, I've been wanting to ask you. On Caipan Peak, what really happened in the end? How did it come about that within three months, there would be no restrictions on accepting sect tasks?" Lin Xi hesitated for a moment before roughly recounting the events of that day on Caipan Peak.

  Some of these things were already known to Qinglian Shengnu and Shangguan Yaoyue, while others were not. They heard that the Vampire Queen Camilla was killed by the Guardian Elder for refusing to reveal secrets about Lin Xi. Both of them were shocked in their hearts and sighed endlessly.

  Both of them were women, and they could both feel the emotions in Camilla's heart towards Lin Xi at the moment of her death. Especially Yu Xue, who had tears streaming down her face when she heard the moving parts.

  Camilla and Camilla had been at odds with each other for a long time. However, when she heard that Camilla was killed by the Guardian Elder, Yu Xue felt both sympathy and admiration.

  As a woman, Camila undoubtedly won the respect of Shangguan Yuxue with her own actions.

  Some true disciples are even more powerful than the elders. Like the cultivation of the divine son, it is much stronger than that of the guardian elder!

  Once becoming a "true disciple," one not only has the right to know many sect secrets, but also gets priority access to some of the sect's resources and full support! Is the sect's true pillar!

  Some particularly powerful true disciples can even make the elder's face look at their faces!

  The deputy leader of the Shenyue Sect gave Lin Xi three months to reach the realm of Qixian. On the surface, it was a test, a huge grind. But from another perspective, it also proved that the deputy leader of the Shenyue Sect believed that Lin Xi had the potential to become a "true disciple", which made Qinglian Holy Girl envious!

  The Shen Ying Sect has tens of thousands of disciples, including all the registered ones. The Holy Sons and Holy Daughters have several thousand each, but the true transmission disciples are extremely rare, with only a few hundred names.

  Each one is noble and dignified, beyond the ordinary.

  For the holy sons and daughters in the sect, they are high above, like divine beings. The gap is so great that it cannot be measured by reason.

  "So it's actually good luck for me?"

  Lin Xi smiled wryly. He didn't know what to make of it either. If Qinglian Holy Maiden hadn't mentioned it, he wouldn't have known about the "three months" limit, and there was actually such a thing.

  "You can think of it that way."

  Qinglian Holy Girl nodded slightly.

  This answer seems absurd, but for those who are familiar with the internal affairs of the Shinto shrine, they will say it without hesitation.

  "But this is also too difficult! Three months from refining one layer of Qi to four layers. Ordinary people can't even achieve that in three years!"

  Shangguan Yaoyue worried and thought deeply.

  She thinks about the problem, always from Lin Xi's point of view, and is far less optimistic than Qinglian Shengnu.

  "Girl, you've said it yourself, he's just an ordinary person. The Xian Dao sect has never recruited ordinary people. To become a superior being, one must either be a great genius, or extremely persevering, or incredibly lucky. Not to mention others, Long Bingyan won't let him off easily. For his own sake, Lin Xi must quickly strengthen himself."

  Qinglian Holy Girl paused for a moment, then continued: "Long Bingyan is currently only handling matters within the rules of Shen Xiao Sect. She has always relied on her identity and hasn't taken action personally. It's all been done through subordinates or sect rules to deal with Lin Xi. But after this incident, Long Bingyan will undoubtedly take Lin Xi very seriously. When three months pass and Long Bingyan takes personal action, you'll know just how terrifying her true strength is. Believe me, Lin Xi, you absolutely won't want to face that kind of Long Bingyan!"
