I started by controlling his master, and the protagonist begged me to slow down my kicking.

This bag was checked.

In the sacred land of Yaochi, Ye Chen will engage in a fierce battle with the Taiyin Saintess of the Yin-Yang Sect. He will temporarily break through the defenses of the Elder within the Ring to defeat her, winning her heart and seizing the "Illusionary Talisman."

[Illusion Talisman: Can ignore cultivation level and simulate a spell below the Heavenly level. Limited to one use per day.]

Cheng Ran raised an eyebrow.

He said, "How did we suddenly get involved with the Yaochi Holy Land?"

It turns out it was Ye Chen's fortuitous encounter...

That's not surprising.

In fantasy novels, the term "Jade Pool Holy Land" is always mentioned.

Without much thought, any smart reader will know that the protagonist is about to start showing off.

Whether it's a hero rescuing a damsel in distress or breaking a record...

In the end, the result is that he can win the hearts of a bunch of girls!

But to be honest.

Cheng Ran didn't actually care whether Ye Chen could win the beauty's heart.

The key point is that intelligence indicates Ye Chen will achieve a breakthrough during this trip!

This is not in his best interest.

After all, he achieved his current strength by plundering Ye Chen.

If Ye Chen truly breaks through and regains his talent, it will definitely affect my plundering...

This idiot might even come back and slap himself in the face!

"no way......"

"Ye Chen, I really didn't mean to steal your life."

"But even if I have to refuse tomorrow, I will force Master to take me to the Jade Pool Holy Land."

Cheng Ran pondered to himself.

However, there is still some time before tomorrow morning.

He doesn't intend to be idle either.

Cheng Ran got up and took the Divine Sword of Fate from the sword rack beside the bed.

While his master was still asleep, he decided to take the opportunity to practice his sword technique in the courtyard outside the palace for a while.

I've experienced the sword-training methods of the reformers.

This time, returning to the traditional approach is not out of the question.

Thinking this way.

Cheng Ran left the palace.

And at this time.

Gong Yueli, who was on the embroidered couch, slowly opened her eyes.

She pricked up her ears and listened carefully to the footsteps.

Only after Cheng Ran's footsteps completely disappeared into the corridor did she let out a long sigh and slowly rise to her feet.

"That wicked disciple is finally gone."

She didn't want to pretend to be asleep either.

But there was nothing they could do.

If that wicked disciple finds out she's still awake...

I definitely deserve another beating!

Thinking this, Gong Yueli couldn't help but recall the scene from just now.

Cheng Ran held her hand, forcing her to keep shouting...

"Pooh!"

"What are you thinking about!"

Gong Yueli felt that she was becoming more and more improper.

It's unbelievable that I would recall something like this.

She quickly recited the mantra for calming her mind to calm herself down.

"I have suffered such humiliation only for the sake of my swordsmanship training..."

After muttering something to herself, Gong Yueli checked her spiritual platform as usual.

The result was just as she had predicted!

Her cultivation level has improved again, bringing her closer to the origin of swordsmanship.

Moreover, this might be the reason why the debate was more intense than before.

This time, her cultivation level improved by more than she had in the two previous sword duels at Biluo Palace combined!

"Why."

"A hundred years of diligent sword training, can it really not compare to a fleeting moment of romantic love?"

Thinking of this, Gong Yueli couldn't help but sigh.

She uncovered the bedding, returned to the dressing table to fix her hair and makeup, and then went to the window.

She stared at the figure outside the window, who was comprehending a sword technique, for a long time, and then murmured:

"What a wicked disciple."

Then, he closed his eyes.

His figure disappeared into the palace.

......

......

The next day, early morning.

Cheng Ran finished his cultivation.

can only say.

Reformists > Traditionalists

After a night of reflection, he only grasped the basics.

If it could be converted into proficiency, my sword technique proficiency would probably have increased by about 10 points.

It's nowhere near as good as dual cultivation!

Master still smells the best!

But no matter what, it was still a way to kill time for an evening.

"Let's go find our master first and talk about the Jade Pool Holy Land."

Cheng Ran immediately set off.

He wandered around the palace but didn't see Gong Yueli.

Then they went to the main hall of Biluo Palace and found that their master had already taken his seat in the main seat of the palace.

Besides the master, a group of women were also standing in the hall.

The women were dressed in scarlet Taoist robes, and each of them wore a light veil over their faces.

It looks very ethereal.

They could be easily identified by the stamps on their robes.

They came from the sacred land of Yaochi.

but.

These women are beautiful, but each one stands out on her own.

It's only at the level of 80.

Compared to the perfect master, senior sister, and palace master.

It's still far inferior.

This is probably the difference between a minor internet celebrity and a top female star.

Do you really think anyone can be on the list of most beautiful women?

Most of the women listened quietly to the others, while only a few at the head were discussing matters with their master.

"Sword Immortal Gong, we will escort you to the Holy Land today for discussions."

Thank you for your trouble.

"How fortunate it is for a sword immortal to grace our Jade Pool with his presence!"

Standard commercial hype.

Of course, Cheng Ran knew that at this time, as an inner disciple, he shouldn't disturb them.

So he simply stood quietly in a corner of the hall.

He was plotting how to trick his beloved master into taking him along.

While pondering.

Cheng Ran suddenly heard a gentle, smiling voice:

"Is this Cheng Ran, Senior Brother Cheng?"

Cheng Ran turned his head upon hearing this.

Then he saw a smiling woman walking lightly to his side.

Judging by appearances, it seems that B's sharp edge is already showing.

The value is too low to be worth considering... Cheng Ran silently labeled it in his mind.

However, he found it somewhat strange.

Why does this woman in front of me know my name?

and also.

Who are you sending it to?

Cheng Ran raised an eyebrow and asked:

"Who are you?"

"Su Chan'er, an inner disciple of the Jade Pool Holy Land."

The woman bowed slightly, her manners impeccable, her gaze softly falling on Cheng Ran's face:

"Senior Brother Cheng is probably wondering why Chan'er recognizes you, right?"

Cheng Ran nodded.

Su Chan'er covered her face and smiled charmingly:

"In fact, Chan'er had already heard of your reputation in the Yaochi Holy Land."

"It is said that he is exceptionally handsome, devastatingly so."

"However, it seems today..."

At this point, Su Chan'er's pretty face flushed with girlish shyness:

"Senior Brother Cheng is several times more handsome than Chan'er imagined."

Am I that famous?

Are they all so handsome they've gone to the Jade Pool Holy Land?

Although the woman's praise made him feel very good and gave him a lot of emotional value.

However, Cheng Ran maintained a scientifically skeptical attitude towards the woman's claims.

If a complete stranger praises you for no apparent reason.

There's probably some hidden story behind it.

Therefore, Cheng Ran's expression remained unchanged, and he simply replied:

"Junior Sister Su, you flatter me. May I ask what guidance you may offer?"

Upon hearing this, Su Chan'er took half a step forward, lowering her voice slightly:

"I dare not offer any guidance. It is only because I admire Senior Brother Cheng's demeanor that I have this humble request."

"I wonder if Senior Brother Cheng would be willing to listen?"

Cheng Ran vaguely felt that something was off about the rhythm.

But I still went along with her words:

"Please speak."

Su Chan'er smiled gently, looked at Cheng Ran, and said in a soft but earnest tone, word by word:

"Senior Brother Cheng, would you be willing to become Chan'er's Daoist partner?"
