Junior Sister is too competitive, she drastically alters the Joyful Union Sect.

Chapter 478 Finale
Seeing Yue Xunzhu's much more serious expression, Shen Youqing's heart skipped a beat.

"Did you know that a long time ago, there was an evil technique that could steal the spiritual roots of others and use them for one's own purposes?"

Shen Youqing nodded, a hint of hesitation on his face.

Is seizing someone else's spiritual root the only way?

"This kind of evil magic originated from the Yue family," Yue Xunzhu said as she walked.

Shen Youqing paused in his steps.

“This technique is not an evil one.” Yue Xunzhu raised her hand and patted Shen Youqing’s head. “For cultivators, it is common for their spiritual roots to be damaged. Even if their spiritual roots are dug out, they can be repaired.”

Shen Youqing grabbed Yue Xunzhu's sleeve, his eyes gleaming.

Yue Xunzhu looked troubled, and her tone softened slightly, "The prerequisite for repair is having a spiritual root."

How can one repair themselves if they lack spiritual roots?

Make bricks without straw.

Shen Youqing's initial expectations vanished.

Second Senior Sister's spiritual root was crushed by that damned demonic cultivator!

"Besides that, there's another requirement: this spiritual root must be her own." Yue Xunzhu patted Shen Youqing's shoulder and said, "Jinjin, if Lin Jinyao's spiritual root is still there, the Yue family can try to help her repair it, but..."

"..." Shen Youqing looked up at the azure sky.

How can this result be worthy of my second senior sister?!
After the brother and sister strolled around, Yue Xunzhu was called away by the elder.

With nothing much to do, Shen Youqing stayed at Wanhua Courtyard for a few days, eating and sleeping.

-

Acacia sect.

When Shen Youqing returned to the sect, Shen Wuye was already in the Hehuan Sect.

Nowadays, there are only two girls in the new generation who are her direct disciples: one named Guihua and the other named Piaoxiang.

"Uncle Master!"

The two girls, who had received the news early, were waiting outside the Green Pool. When they saw Shen Youqing arrive, they were overjoyed. If it weren't for Shen Youqing's status, they would definitely have rushed over to him.

Shen Youqing walked up and patted their heads, then led them inside.

The pool was teeming with life.

The two little girls followed behind Shen Youqing, chattering about things within the sect.

Suddenly, the chattering sounds in his ears disappeared, and Shen Youqing turned around to see two little girls with honest faces.

A gaze, undisguised and intense, fell upon him.

Shen Youqing looked over and saw Xiao Ke standing at the kitchen door with his sleeves rolled up, holding a kitchen knife in his hand.

"Senior brother."

The two young girls, Guihua and Piaoxiang, bowed respectfully and said, "Uncle-Master."

Xiao Ke turned and walked towards the kitchen.

"We won't disturb you two senior uncles any longer." After saying that, Guihua tugged at Piaoxiang's sleeve and hurriedly left.

Shen Youqing turned around and looked at their light and cheerful figures, a touch of gentleness appearing in her eyes.

Turning her gaze away, Shen Youqing walked to the kitchen doorway and leaned against it, looking at the man who was chopping vegetables with his head down. "Senior brother."

"Hmm," Xiao Ke responded without looking up.

Shen Youqing said slowly, "The Yue family doesn't have any solutions, so I'd like to try the Chaos Pearl."

Previously, she was able to give Shen Qiuluo a portion of the Chaos Pearl's power in a way that made it indistinguishable from the real thing. Now, she should also be able to use the Chaos Pearl's power to help her second senior sister embark on the path of cultivation again!
Xiao Ke looked up.

"I want to dedicate a portion of my power to create a spiritual root and place it within Second Senior Sister's body." Shen Youqing looked at Xiao Ke earnestly. "Second Senior Sister's cultivation will disappear along with the spiritual root. I want to keep Second Senior Sister alive."

Xiao Ke looked at Shen Youqing and said, "Qingqing, they won't agree."

"Act first, report later."

Xiao Ke put down the kitchen knife in his hand. "Have you ever considered that the power of the Chaos Pearl within Second Senior Sister might bring her danger?"

This is like letting a three-year-old child carry a divine sword and wander down the street.

"I will guide my second senior sister in cultivation."

Xiao Ke was silent for a moment, then finally said, "I support you."

Second Senior Sister is over three hundred years old. After suddenly losing her cultivation, her lifespan will be no more than a hundred years. She is only able to live now thanks to elixirs.

If there were no other way, Qingqing wouldn't have done this.

"After we finish eating, we'll go find Second Senior Sister."

Xiao Ke picked up a kitchen knife and started chopping vegetables. "When you come back, the food might not be ready yet."

"Then I'll go." Shen Youqing waved his hand. "I'll be back for dinner as soon as I'm done."

Xiao Ke responded. Shen Youqing, on the other hand, acted immediately.

Lin Jinyao, who was being held down by Lin Youran to sunbathe, had a calm expression. Her condition was neither good nor bad, but the energy in her eyes was gone.

Looking at Lin Jinyao, whose hair was half silver, Shen Youqing walked up to her and flicked his finger.

The turquoise spiritual energy carried her into a dream.

"Little junior sister?"

Lin Youran looked at Shen Youqing, puzzled.

Shen Youqing smiled mysteriously, then raised his hand and made a hand seal.

When the Chaos Pearl appeared, Lin Youran immediately guessed what it was trying to do.

Shen Youqing moved very quickly.

"Junior Sister, you..."

Seeing Lin Youran's eyes welling up with tears, Shen Youqing walked over and put her arm around her shoulder. "Third Senior Sister, it won't look good if you cry~"

Lin Youran looked at her, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"I'm going back to eat. I'll bring her over after Second Senior Sister wakes up," Shen Youqing said seriously. "She needs to reach Foundation Establishment today!"

???

After watching Shen Youqing leave, Lin Youran turned to look at the sleeping Lin Jinyao, feeling both sympathy and overwhelming joy.

Bishui Pond.

As soon as Lin Jinyao saw Shen Youqing, he strode forward and was about to kneel down, "Junior Sister, you have saved my life..."

"Second Senior Sister, you mustn't do that! It will shorten your lifespan!" Shen Youqing was so frightened that she jumped up to help her.

The scene became chaotic.

Xiao Ke held his teacup and watched calmly.

Lin Youran relaxed her brows and eyes, smiling gently and happily.

Yang Yousheng sat to one side eating, watching the lively scene with tenderness in his eyes.

Everything has settled down. They are all still here and doing well, and that's enough.

Liang Shimu brought over the six-tailed white fox and saw Lin Jinyao being forced to cultivate by Shen Youqing. He asked her what had happened and found out.

"Fine! You lot are increasingly disrespecting me, your senior brother! I was the last to know about such a big thing!"

Shen Youqing held the little fox with an innocent expression.

Lin Youran said seriously, "Who told Senior Brother to be so busy!"

"That's no excuse for not telling you, Junior Sister! How did you learn bad habits from Third Junior Sister!"

Shen Wuye walked slowly to the side, watching the two siblings bicker.

"Oh, right." After looking around for a while, Shen Wuye said, "I saw Wen Shiyue and Gu Xingluan when I came here."

Lin Youran stopped arguing and turned around to look at them. "Aren't they busy with the Five Elements Sect?"

“I know that,” Liang Shimu said. “Sect Leader Wang felt sorry for Wen Shiyue and sent her to the Hehuan Sect to be raised in a free-range manner.”

Lin Youran blinked.

Is this right?
"They've arrived," Xiao Ke's indifferent voice rang out.

As the barrier was lifted, Gu Xingluan and Wen Shiyue soon came into view.

Lin Youran warmly went up to greet her.

Gu Xingluan and Wen Shiyue were genuinely happy for Lin Jinyao when they learned that she had recovered.

While cultivating, Lin Jinyao tried to join their conversation.

After being lectured by Lin Youran, she obediently immersed herself in cultivation.

Liang Shimu walked into the pavilion and sat down. Looking at his junior brothers and sisters, his deep and dignified eyes softened. "Next year will be the Five Sects Conference again. My sect only has two disciples. Master is so worried that he wishes we could take their place."

Thinking of his unreliable master and the other sect leaders, Yang Yousheng shook his head and said, "The other four sects don't have many direct disciples either, so they might just need us to step up."

"By the way, Youqing," Shen Wuye suddenly spoke up, saying as Shen Youqing looked over, "Young Master has dealt with Yiyao."

Before Shen Youqing could even think, Liang Shimu's complaining voice rang out again, "You guys have no idea how busy I am, the mission hall is practically bursting at the seams! You guys shouldn't slack off, especially Fifth Junior Brother..."

……

A pleasant breeze blows by, and their story continues.

That concludes the main text!
【bow】

Thank you for following along, my darlings!
I considered whether to write a side story, and what kind of side story to write, but in the end I decided not to.

Your past life was too bitter, this life is just right!
