After disappearing for ten years, the junior sister made the entire sect kneel down to welcome her.

With the "thief" incident concluded, Luo Zhenhuan resumed his cultivation and study.

Yun Yao is really good to Luo, but he is extremely strict in teaching.

In the cultivation world, cultivators have four paths to choose from: medical cultivators who focus on alchemy, poison formulas, and healing techniques; artifact cultivators who focus on crafting magical artifacts and forging handy magical treasures for others; body cultivators who dedicate themselves to strengthening their physique and transforming themselves into human weapons; and magic cultivators who learn techniques for attacking and killing.

The boundaries between these four paths are not very clear. Cultivators have explored them to varying degrees, but each has their own focus and specialization.

For example, Yun Yao is skilled in weapon crafting and has exceptional medical expertise, but he is also a powerful magic cultivator.

However, in educating Luo Huanzhen, Yun Yao required Luo Huanzhen to learn medicine, weapons, techniques, and physical skills to perfection.

The two, one big and one small, sat under the big tree in front of the cabin.

A row of different-looking herbs were laid out in front of them.

Yun Yao said, "Zhenzhen, among these twenty-eight spiritual plants, find suitable herbs, use your spiritual power to blend and refine them, and make a basic healing pill."

Luo Huanzhen looked up, his face full of curiosity, and asked, "Don't you need a pill furnace to refine pills?"

The third senior brother, Zhao Qing, was a medical cultivator. His cave was filled with all kinds of alchemy furnaces, some large and some small, some simple and some with intricate patterns.

Upon hearing this, Yun Yao chuckled lightly: "No need, poor students just have too many stationery items."

Truly skilled medical practitioners can extract and blend herbs without relying on any external aids.

Luo Huanzhen slowly opened his eyes wide, his face full of admiration: "Master, you are so amazing!"

She used to think that she was also at the Tribulation Transcending stage, and Master Yun Yao was also at the Tribulation Transcending stage, so their levels should be about the same.

But after actually getting to know her, Luo really felt that she was far inferior to Master Yun Yao.

The things in her mind were thin and not substantial.

She is a sharp torrent, while Yun Yao is a vast ocean.

Yun Yao rubbed the little dumpling's head, "Zhenzhen is also very powerful, and she will be even more powerful than Master in the future."

It wasn't to comfort her.

This was a fact that Yun Yao was certain of.

After all, Luo Zhenhuan reached such heights without any guidance, and now that he can receive better instruction, he will surely go even further.

He was willing to be a stepping stone, allowing Luo Zhen to stand on his shoulders and climb higher and farther step by step.

"Let's begin."

"Okay~"

Following Yun Yao's reminders and guidance, Luo Huanzhen gathered a wisp of spiritual power at his fingertips and began to select spiritual plants for refining and harmonizing.

"Wow! It's out!"

"Master knew you were a genius! You succeeded on your first try. Now for the next one..."

"Your master will teach you medicine and magic. But he is not good at weapon crafting."

"The sect has elders specializing in weapon crafting, so Master doesn't need to worry. Zhenzhen can go to the sect's academy to learn."

"Zhenzhen needs a better teacher, at least one at the Tribulation Transcending stage. Master went out a few days ago and found a suitable weapon refiner for Zhenzhen. He will come to Xuantian Sect soon to teach Zhenzhen weapon refining."

"Master, Zhenzhen heard that the sect competition is about to be held..."

"Why are you suddenly bringing this up? Do you want to participate?"

"Yes! I want to make my master proud! I want to tell everyone that I am the most amazing little genius!"

"Alright, Master will register you via telepathy."

The sun was shining brightly, and the breeze was gentle.

Under the swaying shadows of the trees, the master and apprentice learned in a fun and engaging way.

It was afternoon.

Yun Yao taught Luo Zhen magic.

Luo Zhenhuan is currently at the Foundation Establishment stage. Yun Yao has instructed her to continue suppressing her cultivation level until it can no longer be suppressed before breaking through, and she must continue down this path from now on.

In the small, cold pool beside them, the Xuanlin Python blinked its big eyes as it watched the two practice, and occasionally it would crawl out and fight with Luo Huanzhen.

Yun Yao has quite a few spiritual plants in his spatial ring, not only his own, but also some that Luo Zhen Huan obtained in the Spirit Mountain Secret Realm. However, they are all very precious materials, and it is not worthwhile to use them for learning.

Yun Yao would take some time to leave Zhiyun Peak and go to the sect's medical practitioners to retrieve the spiritual plants and herbs needed for the next medical lesson.

Zhao Qing arrived at Zhiyun Peak at this time.

"Zhenzhen."

Luo Huanzhen turned his head and saw Zhao Qing. He pouted and said, "What, it's you?"

Zhao Qing asked with a gentle, knowing look on her face, "Are you cultivating?"

Luo Huanzhen wrinkled her little nose and asked impatiently, "Is there something you need?"

She's become exceptionally beautiful now, and even when she makes such an impolite expression, she still looks incredibly cute.

Zhao Qing's heart softened as well.

He stepped forward, approaching Luo Zhenhuan with a guilty expression, and went straight to the point: "Zhenzhen, I've come to apologize to you on behalf of Mingyue. You misunderstood her while you were reflecting on your actions at the Cliff of Repentance, which led to her being punished. Could you please beg your grandmaster to release Mingyue?"

This morning, he and several of his fellow students went to see Mingyue again.

She was not feeling well on the Cliff of Contemplation.

The second senior brother was truly heartless, offering no protection whatsoever to Mingyue. When the other disciples arrived, Mingyue was practically in tears.

His body was covered in mottled wounds, so bloody that it was heartbreaking to see.

Upon hearing Zhao Qing's words, Luo Huanzhen's face immediately turned cold.

She recalled the time when she was punished by Hengyangzi at the Cliff of Repentance, and how Zhao Qing, who was always soft-hearted, did not plead with Hengyangzi on her behalf.

She recalled the scene she had seen in the mirror in the secret realm.

Despite her soft heart, Zhao Qing still chose to attack her master, who had not made any mistakes.

But now, Zhao Qing has come to her, hoping she can plead with Master Yun Yao to release Su Mingyue.

Because he is soft-hearted and feels sorry for others.

Luo Huanzhen lowered his eyes, his long eyelashes trembling slightly. Although he had long known that his senior brothers treated him and Su Mingyue differently, he still felt a little sore in his throat.

Zhao Qing hadn't noticed the change in Luo Huanzhen's expression. He seemed immersed in Su Mingyue's pitiful situation, continuing with a face full of heartache and pity, "Mingyue really knows she was wrong. She was just... confused for a moment. She's been weak since childhood and has always been pampered. Staying on the Cliff of Repentance just couldn't take it. When we went there this morning and saw Mingyue like that, as her senior brother, I felt really bad... The sect competition is coming up soon. Punishing her on the Cliff of Repentance for so long, she'll definitely miss it. Zhenzhen, please help her, okay?"

Luo Huanzhen looked up, her delicate and adorable face tilted upwards, and asked expectantly, "Third Senior Brother, you're so good to your junior sister. When I was punished and sent to the Cliff of Repentance, did you plead with the Sect Master for me? Did you ever think of coming to the Cliff of Repentance to treat my injuries?"

Zhao Qing was taken aback, a hint of unease appearing on his face. "Back then... the situation was different then. You did make a mistake, and Master punished you for your own good. Besides, you have strong constitution, so spending a few months on the Cliff of Repentance is nothing."

It's nothing...

That's nothing.

Luo Zhen turned his head away, crossed his arms, and said coldly, "I can't help you, and Master Yun Yao doesn't listen to me."

Zhao Qing maintained her gentle expression, but her tone became urgent: "No, he won't. Your grandmaster dotes on you the most. As long as you ask, he will listen to you. If not, you can throw a tantrum and refuse to eat. In the end, he will definitely not be able to bear it and will give in to you."
