At sunset.

Chen Qingshuang hurried back to the courtyard where she lived.

She currently lives in the outer courtyard of the Sword Sect, living with thousands of outer disciples.

Fortunately, the courtyard is relatively quiet, not small in size, and has pure and rich spiritual energy, so there will be no problem either in life or in practice.

There was a hint of fatigue on her resolute face. She opened a low-level formation that protected the courtyard and returned to her familiar environment. She immediately felt a little more relaxed.

Just the past day, she had been staying in the cave where a Jindan uncle was staying, processing a large amount of talisman-making materials for him.

During this period, I was using my spiritual consciousness all the time, which caused great mental depletion and a slight feeling of dizziness.

She looked calm and was already used to this situation.

Although the Chen family is not a small family and has had its glorious moments, after the sudden appearance of the Nascent Soul ancestor, each generation has been weaker than the previous one, and now there is only one Jindan Zhenren in the family.

Therefore, compared to a behemoth like the Tianjian Sect, it is nothing at all.

Chen Qingshuang was well aware of her family's difficulties. In order to allow her to rapidly improve her strength in the Dongxuan Sword Sect, the family had put all their efforts and spent a large amount of resources and treasures on her.

But compared with those real children of aristocratic families, those resources are just superficial and have limited effect.

She took a deep breath and her eyes became firm again.

Her talent could not compare to those rare geniuses, and her family background was not as good as those of the sword masters, descendants of elders or children of aristocratic families in the Sword Sect, but she believed that as long as she had an unyielding heart to seek the truth, she would be able to make up for these gaps.

Chen Qingshuang took out a black pill from the storage bag and swallowed it.

The pill had an indescribable strange taste that made her frown.

After a while, she circulated her spiritual power, and a few drops of a faint gray-black liquid with a fishy and unpleasant smell dripped from her fingertips.

"The strange poison that the evil spirit left in the body has been almost eliminated."

She cast a purification talisman to remove the few drops of light black liquid.

The last time she went out to explore the secret realm, she accidentally got infected with a trace of evil poison. With the help of the sect, she survived, but some of the poison still remained in her body, which was extremely difficult to get rid of.

The only way to recover to normal is by taking detoxifying pills like the one just given.

"Junior Sister Chen, I'm here to visit you."

Just when she was about to practice, a soft voice came from outside the courtyard.

Before she could stand up to greet him, the owner of the voice came in familiarly.

A woman with picturesque features and long black hair cascading down like a waterfall walked towards her slowly.

"Senior Sister Zhong."

Chen Qingshuang bowed respectfully.

The woman's name was Zhongli, the daughter of a Nascent Soul elder of the Sword Sect. She was the same age as her, but had already entered the perfect stage of foundation building and had a chance of forming a pill.

"Junior sister, are you dealing with talisman-making materials again today?"

Zhongli moved closer to Chen Qingshuang's shoulder, as if sniffing the scent on her body, his eyes as gentle as water.

"Yes."

Chen Qingshuang moved half a step away without leaving a trace.

"I have already told you, Junior Sister, that you should move to my cave. The spiritual energy there is purer and richer. The speed of cultivation will be greatly improved, and we can also take care of each other."

Zhongli said with a chuckle.

"Thank you for your kindness, Senior Sister Zhong. I'm just used to living here, and I'm afraid I'll cause you a lot of inconvenience."

Chen Qingshuang shook his head.

Even though Zhongli tried to persuade her again and again, she remained firm in her inner thoughts.

Zhongli did not stay for long, and said goodbye to her and left. Chen Qingshuang watched her leave, her heart as calm as water.

The senior sister in front of her seemed to have some inexplicable feelings for her and was unusually close to her on a daily basis.

In this situation, as long as she showed the slightest sign of showing it, she would be able to obtain a large amount of resources from the daughter of the Yuanying Zhenjun. However, Chen Qingshuang was unwilling to go against her true thoughts and only regarded the other party's intimacy as friendship between fellow disciples.

"Excuse me, is this where Junior-Martial Nephew Chen Qingshuang lives?"

Just as she was about to go back to the courtyard, she suddenly heard a gentle voice in her ears.

Following the sound, she saw a young man in a navy blue robe looking at her with a smile.

The young man had a handsome face, eyes like lacquer, extraordinary bearing and a deep aura. It was Lu Xuan who rushed here after hearing the information about the Chen family disciples from Mo Yuanfeng.

"Junior Chen Qingshuang, greetings to Uncle Master."

Chen Qingshuang's heart trembled. He didn't know why this Jindan master uncle came before him, so he hurriedly greeted him.

"Nephew Chen, there is no need to be so polite. My name is Lu Xuan. I am currently staying at Huanzhen Sword Peak. I came here to talk to you about something."

Lu Xuan smiled and nodded.

"It turns out to be Uncle Lu. I wonder why Uncle Lu wants to see me?"

Chen Qingshuang invited Lu Xuan into the courtyard and asked curiously.

"By chance, I have some affinity with Uncle Master Chen Xiaobai of the Chen family, which has greatly benefited me in my cultivation."

"I came here this time to find the descendants of my great-grandmaster, to see if I can repay you a little and fulfill a wish in my heart."

Lu Xuan said half-truthfully.

"Great grandpa?"

Chen Qingshuang was stunned, looking half-believing and half-doubting.

"That's right. Although my time is two or three thousand years away from that of my uncle-master, I still have some interactions with him."

Lu Xuan smiled and casually told him about the living habits, cultivation experience, etc. of Chen family's Yuanying Zhenjun.

These were all obtained from his obsession with the sword spirit, and there was no falsehood, so naturally he quickly gained Chen Qingshuang's trust.

The Chen family's hopes are pinned on her, so naturally she has a deep understanding of her great-grandfather who is in the Nascent Soul stage. There are some things that even ordinary members of the Chen family cannot possibly know.

And the fact that Lu Xuan, a stranger, could speak so clearly naturally verified that what he said was true.

"Nephew Chen, I accidentally obtained a treasure left by Uncle Chen Xiaobai, which helped me a lot in my cultivation."

"Now that I have achieved success in my cultivation, and I am fortunate to have found you, my nephew, I naturally have to give you something in return."

As Lu Xuan spoke, he took out a few things from his storage bag and placed them in front of Chen Qingshuang.

"Here are three fourth-grade sword talismans that can release powerful sword energy in an instant. They may be able to turn the situation around when we go out to explore the secret realm."

"Two fourth-grade Dust-Cleansing Pills can remove the evil aura in the body and prevent it from being attacked and contaminated by demons and evil spirits."

"In addition, there are three thunderstorm lotus seeds. After taking them, they have a certain tempering effect on the body. At the same time, they have a good auxiliary effect on practicing thunder-related magical skills and secret arts."

There were three sword talismans, with sword intent surging and countless tiny sword qi flowing on the surface; two Dust-Cleansing Pills, with clear and spiritual air lingering around them; and three silver-white lotus seeds, with tiny arcs of lightning faintly jumping around them.

"This... is too expensive."

Chen Qingshuang tried hard to take his eyes off these treasures and said with his head down.

The treasures that Lu Xuan took out were so precious to her that she was embarrassed to accept them.

"It's okay. This is what you deserve, nephew. It can also be regarded as Uncle Chen taking care of his descendants."

Lu Xuan said with a smile.
