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

Chapter 56 Junior Sister, Help Me

The weight of the sandbags on Liang Shimu and Xiao Ke's arms was the same as the weight of the sandbags on their legs.

With two sandbags tied to his arms, his arms instantly felt as heavy as lead, making it impossible to lift them, let alone untie the knots with one hand.

"What are you laughing at?" Liang Shimu glared at Lin Youran and said irritably, "Aren't you going to help? Do you really want your junior sister to run more than ten laps by herself?"

This is unbelievable! Junior Sister's strength is simply... Is this what body cultivation is all about?
"I have no strength." Having regained her senses, Lin Youran didn't even have the strength to lift her hand. Seeing Liang Shimu's disdainful look, she immediately bristled, "I'm an alchemist! Not a body cultivator!"

Do they think they have strength when they don't?
She doesn't even want to move a finger right now.

The three of them turned to look at Qi Bumian beside them, and then decisively gave up asking for help.

They sat on the ground, slumped over in despair.

Shen Youqing ran at a steady pace. She wasn't running very fast, but she was able to maintain that speed, and even increased her speed appropriately in the last two or three laps.

After finishing the last lap, Qi Bumian said, "That's enough. Go and adjust your breathing."

Shen Youqing responded, wiped the sweat from her face haphazardly, walked half a circle to catch her breath, and then sat down to rest.

Looking at Shen Youqing, who was covered in sweat and had a flushed face, Lin Youran gave her an admiring look.

Shen Youqing sat down to rest for a while, then took off the sandbags from his legs and placed them aside before sitting cross-legged to regulate his breathing.

After circulating the cultivation technique for one cycle, Shen Youqing could feel that the meridians in his body had been widened a little, and the spiritual energy circulating in his body had increased considerably.

"Junior sister, help me." His voice was even lower and hoarse after strenuous exercise.

Xiao Ke sat lazily on the ground with no manners whatsoever. A few strands of his hair, soaked with sweat, clung to his forehead, making him look somewhat disheveled yet alluring.

Shen Youqing pushed himself up from the ground and walked to Xiao Ke, reaching out to untie the knots.

Xiao Ke lowered his eyes to look at Shen Youqing in front of him, his nostrils filled with the rich scent of camellias emanating from her.

After the body-strengthening exercise, the camellia fragrance emanating from her body was even stronger than before, so strong that it was almost intoxicating.

Xiao Ke's eyes gradually darkened, his gaze fixed intently on Shen Youqing's serious expression.

Liang Shimu, who was standing to the side, couldn't bear to watch any longer. He turned his head away and silently cursed him as a pervert.

"Senior brother is really useless, making you run so many laps." The guilty and uneasy voice was somewhat low.

Shen Youqing looked up and saw Xiao Ke's guilty and remorseful expression. Without thinking, she said, "I don't think so. I think Senior Brother is very capable. Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses. What Senior Brother is not good at is exactly what I am good at. It's nothing for me to help Senior Brother."

After saying that, Shen Youqing turned to Liang Shimu and Lin Youran and said, "Senior Brother and Third Senior Sister, don't overthink it, you are both very capable!"

Lin Youran gave Shen Youqing a gentle smile, then glanced at Xiao Ke with disdain.

"Junior Sister saved our lives today," Liang Shimu said with a smile. "We have no way to repay this life-saving grace, so we can only find a spirit beast for Junior Sister to repay her."

"No need, no need, I have a Snow Crystal Purple-Eyed Cat," Shen Youqing hurriedly said. "Spirit beasts are so expensive, this is just running a few laps, it's fine!"

Something's wrong!
If he had run those ten or so laps, he would have collapsed long ago.

Shen Youqing quickly untied a few knots and took the sandbag.

His arm instantly felt lighter, and Xiao Ke looked at Shen Youqing with a slightly apologetic gaze, "Could you please lend me a hand, Junior Sister?"

Shen Youqing stood up and extended his hand decisively.

Xiao Ke raised his hand and grasped that beautiful, slender jade hand, his fingers curling to envelop her soft hand.

When Xiao Ke's palm touched Shen Youqing's, Shen's hand trembled slightly.

So hot.

Now that they were holding hands, the scorching heat from Xiao Ke's palm was transmitted even more directly, and the intense heat made her palm go numb.

Shen Youqing pulled Xiao Ke up with a slight effort. The man, suddenly pulled up, lost his balance and fell straight forward.

Shen Youqing quickly reached out to support Xiao Ke, and asked anxiously, "Senior brother, are you alright?"

"Sorry, I lost my balance," Xiao Ke said softly, sounding somewhat embarrassed.

Shen Youqing didn't think anything of it, but looked at him with concern.

Liang Shimu and Lin Youran sat quietly watching Xiao Ke's performance.

How come I never knew that my fifth junior brother had so many thoughts?

However, with Fifth Junior Brother's clumsy little tricks, only the naive Junior Sister would fall for it, right?
Xiao Ke paused for a moment, and only after he seemed to have recovered did he slowly release Shen Youqing's jade hand.

Shen Youqing unconsciously curled her fingers; the burning heat seemed to linger, its presence overwhelming.

"Junior Sister~" Lin Youran's gentle voice rang out. She looked at Shen Youqing with a pitiful expression, pleading coquettishly, "Please help your senior sister~"

“Okay!” Shen Youqing turned around and strode towards Lin Youran.

Xiao Ke walked step by step toward Liang Shimu and took the initiative to speak, "Senior Brother, let me help you."

“…Heh.” Liang Shimu chuckled, his eyes and brows filled with disdain.

So what if she just doesn't want her junior sister to come? That little bit of thinking is blatantly obvious in his face!
However, he still had to curse Xiao Ke as a dog of a man.

After removing the sandbags, Shen Youqing gently and carefully helped Lin Youran up.

"It's a pity I'm not a talisman master, so I can't help my junior sister," Lin Youran said with some self-reproach.

Shen Youqing smiled, his eyes crinkling with a mischievous glint in his eyes.

"Don't worry, Third Senior Sister, I'll finish drawing it in a bit!" Seeing that Lin Youran was alright, Shen Youqing strode to the table and continued drawing the turtle talisman.

Lin Youran dragged her heavy body over, and the first thing she saw was Chi Guyuan's expression of wanting to say something but cursing, followed by those bastard talismans.

"..." Lin Youran glanced at Chi Guyuan's expression again, and then burst into laughter.

Chi Guyuan glanced sideways at Lin Youran, who was laughing hysterically, and said coldly, "Fellow Daoist Lin, perhaps you need to understand some of the rules of my sect."

Lin Youran suppressed her smile, looked at the aloof and rigid Chi Guyuan, waved her hand, and casually asked, "What rules could your Qingyu Sect possibly have?"

When Shen Youqing heard this, he couldn't help but look up at Lin Youran. Seeing her disdainful look, he couldn't help but shudder.

"No loud noises, no booming laughter." Chi Guyuan glanced at Lin Youran, who was standing awkwardly with one hand on the table. "No awkward standing."

Three in a row, and every single one was correct.

"..." Lin Youran was so angry that she laughed immediately.

"Why beat around the bush? Just tell me to die!" Lin Youran retorted immediately. "I suppose I won't break your rules after I pass away!"

Chi Guyuan looked at Lin Youran calmly, his indifferent tone revealing neither joy nor anger, "Fellow Daoist Lin, every sect has its own rules."

Liang Shimu and Xiao Ke walked over and saw Lin Youran looking angry.

Xiao Ke spoke coldly, "Third Senior Sister, look there."

Lin Youran looked in the direction Xiao Ke was pointing.

On a large rock, lines of rules were drawn with cinnabar.

At first glance, there seem to be a lot, but upon closer inspection, everything goes dark.

Shen Youqing glanced at it and then quickly looked away.

This is so bad that looking at it any longer would make me go blind. I should just focus on drawing the talisman!
