"Let's go out for a walk. It's so boring staying on the mountain every day." Jiang Lingyue tilted her head and looked up at Lu Ye.

Lu Ye naturally had no objection to this.

At Lu Ye's current speed, even if Jiang Lingyue wanted to go to the Eastern Territory for fun...

Taking her there would only take less than half a day.

Several hours later...

Lu Ye indeed took Jiang Lingyue to all the places she wanted to go in the Northern Territory.

"Brother-in-law, you're so fast!"

Jiang Lingyue exclaimed in surprise at this.

Lu Ye: “…”

"Some things shouldn't be said carelessly," Lu Ye coughed and said.

Soon, Jiang Lingyue realized that her words were indeed somewhat ambiguous.

Especially in terms of their relationship.

Immediately, Jiang Lingyue's cheeks also turned slightly red.

Another hour later, in a city called Shangchuan City.

Jiang Lingyue, overwhelmed by the burden, fell into a deep sleep.

Before falling asleep, Jiang Lingyue had only one thought in her mind...

It seems I really need someone to help me; I'm no match for this bad guy.

We can't beat them... we simply can't beat them!

Looking at Jiang Lingyue, who was fast asleep, Lu Ye shook his head slightly.

Perhaps because they hadn't seen each other for a while, Jiang Lingyue's longing for her had become extremely intense, which is why she launched a reckless attack just now.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have gotten tired so quickly later on.

Immediately, Lu Ye began cultivating in the inn room, which was equipped with a defensive shield and a soundproof barrier.

Since he didn't intend to draw spiritual energy from the outside world, but instead to digest the source crystals and the spiritual herbs in his hands, Lu Ye didn't have any requirements for the source energy of heaven and earth in the vicinity.

Two hours later.

As Lu Ye further advanced his cultivation from the late stage of the ninth level to the Grandmaster of the Earth Realm, another dozen or so Origin Crystals disappeared.

"After advancing, the effect of three to five source crystals has become negligible."

Shaking his head, Lu Ye took out ten more source crystals, holding five in each hand to absorb them.

After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Jiang Lingyue, who had been sleeping, gradually began to wake up.

When Jiang Lingyue opened her eyes and didn't see Lu Ye beside her, she was immediately startled.

Fortunately, when I turned my head, I saw a figure sitting cross-legged in the living room.

As Jiang Lingyue watched Lu Ye cultivate, who seemed to exude a unique aura, she became somewhat mesmerized.

Having already noticed that Jiang Lingyue had woken up, Lu Ye chose to stop his practice after completing one cycle of internal energy circulation.

Seeing Jiang Lingyue's fascination, Lu Ye smiled faintly and said, "What are you looking at so intently?"

"Look at you, brother-in-law," Jiang Lingyue said casually as she got out of bed.

With a slight shift in her eyes, Jiang Lingyue, still sitting there, pointed to herself and asked, "Brother-in-law, am I... a little stronger than before?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Ye was both amused and exasperated. He hadn't expected that this girl would still remember this matter.

"Strong, it's very strong now."

A moment later, Jiang Lingyue, who had finished dressing, jumped down, nuzzled Lu Ye, and said, "Alright, brother-in-law, you can go ahead and get busy. I know you're busy."

They're already Grandmasters in the Mortal Realm, so they must have a lot to do every day.

Although Jiang Lingyue was a little reluctant, she decided to let Lu Ye go and attend to his own business.

During this time, Jiang Lingyue heard a lot of news about Chen Beixuan.

Nowadays, besides genuine news, many people are also spreading rumors and false information about Chen Beixuan.

After all, he was undoubtedly the number one expert in the Northern Territory, and he was the one who had previously destroyed the Five Poisons Sect and killed its leader.

A casual remark can quickly spark a conversation with those around you.

While thinking, Lu Ye said.

“You are an alchemist, and I happen to have some things here that you should be able to use.”

Immediately, Lu Ye waved his hand... In the blink of an eye, many first-, second-, and third-tier spiritual herbs and plants, as well as a small number of fourth-tier ones, appeared on the table, emitting a faint medicinal fragrance.

These low-grade spiritual herbs and plants were collected by Lu Ye beforehand.

He was once teased by Fairy Chiyun, who said he wouldn't even spare a mosquito's leg.

"Wow, so many!"

Jiang Lingyue was stunned when she saw this.

After a two-second silence, he couldn't help but ask Lu Ye.

"Brother-in-law, you wouldn't have... stolen someone's herb garden, would you?!"

Otherwise, Jiang Lingyue couldn't imagine how she could have collected so much on her own.

"What are you talking about? Do you think I'm that kind of person?" Lu Ye said, tapping Jiang Lingyue's head.

Covering her head, Jiang Lingyue quickly shook her head with a grin.

"No, no, my brother-in-law would never do such a thing! I know he always wins people over with virtue."

"I originally found some low-grade spiritual herbs specifically so you could practice with them."

"I didn't expect you to be so talented. You've advanced to the third rank in such a short time. You won't need these first and second rank skills anymore."

Lu Ye said.

“It is useful. Many pills require auxiliary ingredients, and among these auxiliary ingredients, there are quite a few low-grade spiritual herbs and plants,” Jiang Lingyue explained.

"That's fine then. You can keep all of these. If you come across them again, I'll collect them for you," Lu Ye said, pointing to the spiritual herbs on the table.

"We're all family, thank you so much, brother-in-law!"

Jiang Lingyue did not refuse, and instead hugged Lu Ye and kissed him.

...

A moment later, Jiang Lingyue reluctantly left the small town called Shangchuan.

Of course, she was traveling very slowly; it was still at least a thousand or two miles to Wuxiang Mountain.

So, it was still Lu Ye who took her back to Wuxiang Mountain.

An hour later, even though Lu Ye was not moving fast, he still approached the vicinity of Wuxiang Mountain again.

Lu Ye originally intended to send her to the small town at the foot of the mountain, and then let Jiang Lingyue come up the mountain on her own.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Lingyue insisted on being escorted to the mountain gate.

"Good brother-in-law, please take me up the mountain, please..."

Clinging to Lu Ye's back, Jiang Lingyue whispered pitifully in his ear.

"Good brother-in-law, good brother-in-law...you're the best! Please? Just give it to me once."

Seeing that Jiang Lingyue was unwilling to give up several times, Lu Ye sighed helplessly and said, "Alright, I'll escort you to the mountain gate."

In the blink of an eye, Lu Ye and Jiang Lingyue flew to the gate of Wuxiang Mountain.

Under the shocked gaze of the two disciples guarding the mountain gate.

Senior Sister Jiang Lingyue, who is now unparalleled in the sect and has a great reputation, jumped off a man's back...?!

Then, something even more terrifying happened to the two gatekeepers...

Jiang Lingyue had a faint blush on her cheeks and a big smile on her face.

Then, right there in front of everyone, she kissed the man!

Moreover, judging from his actions, it was actually the man who was somewhat unwilling, but in the end he did not dodge.

Looking at Jiang Lingyue kissing him right in front of the sect disciples and those coming and going nearby, Lu Ye revealed an expression that suggested he had expected this.

He had already guessed it.

Jiang Lingyue insisted that he escort her to the mountain gate; she must have something in mind.

Now it seems...that's indeed the case.

Looking at Jiang Lingyue approaching with a pitiful look in her eyes, Lu Ye ultimately did not dodge.

At the same time, many disciples who were going in and out of the mountain gate were petrified on the spot, as if they had seen a ghost.

"Senior Sister Jiang, what's going on...?"

"Hiss... Those senior brothers from the Wuxiang Sect are going crazy!" (End of Chapter)
