A public notice was posted seeking a wife, and a female saint from the Immortal Sect was found.

Chen Yi realized that Li Changqing wanted him to become an outer disciple of the Eastern Divine Sect because she was completely considering his situation, without taking into account her own.

When this woman considers things for him, she doesn't let her own situation influence her decisions; she clearly doesn't intend to bind him with her circumstances.

It wasn't for nothing that I went to the outer sect of the Eastern Divine Sect to become a spy for her sake; it was a worthwhile job as a spy.

In addition, Li Changqing's words made a lot of sense. Once you embark on this path, there's no turning back; you can only move upward step by step.

If you can't live a peaceful life, then you have no choice but to fight for everything that can improve your status and strength.

"I understand," Chen Yi said.

Li Changqing nodded: "It's good that you understand. That's just how things are. Many times, you can't help but fight even if you don't want to. Chen Yi, you need to work harder and be more cautious in the future."

Chen Yi smirked and shamelessly grabbed Li Changqing's hand again, saying, "With you considering my needs, I feel confident about everything. By the way, I just said I wanted to have ten or eight kids with you. What do you think? If you think ten or eight is too many, then five or six is ​​fine too."

Li Changqing: ……

After we finished discussing the important matters, this guy started acting like a scoundrel again. Having ten or eight children is too many, but is having five or six not too many?

No, this isn't about how many children you have.

She had a headache and felt dizzy from Chen Yi's words.

"Practice the Wind Condensation Technique diligently, don't miss any opportunities, and don't let other things distract you," Li Changqing said earnestly, withdrawing his hand.

Then, she stood up and went back to her room, her steps quicker than usual, as if she were fleeing in a panic.

"So thin-skinned?" Chen Yi was secretly delighted.

He suddenly realized that as long as he was bold enough, Li Changqing would be just like a naive young girl, easily flustered and confused by his advances.

Indeed, no matter what era you live in, if you want to live a good life, you still have to be a little shameless.

After thinking for a while about how he should flirt with Li Changqing more, Chen Yi returned to his room.

He sat cross-legged on the bed and took out the booklet that Zheng Shaoyang had given him. It contained the method for cultivating the Wind Condensation Technique.

With just one glance, the technique appeared on the system panel.

【Wind Condensation Technique: 0/2000】

…………

Qingshi Mountain, inside an underground karst cave.

Li Hong and Liu Can sat facing each other, their expressions complex.

Beside the two, pipes converged dozens of spiritual springs and stalactites, the spiritual essence within the converged stalactites being extremely abundant.

It's clearly not far from the condensation of the earth vein spirit pupa.

In the past, the two would have been most concerned about the spiritual milk beside them, but today, both of them had gloomy faces and could not find peace of mind.

"Is it possible that Chen Yi gave Zheng Zhenren a pill formula that is far more precious than the improved versions of the Foundation Condensation Pill and the Soul Protection Pill, which is why Zheng Zhenren is looking at him differently?" Liu Can finally couldn't help but ask.

Never before had he felt life so bleak, and that he could barely endure this wretched existence.

Even now, he still feels like he's dreaming. How did he end up becoming Chen Yi's subordinate?

Li Hong's eyes were extremely cold. He snorted and showed no respect to Liu Can, saying, "Does what you said still matter? No matter why Master Zheng values ​​Chen Yi, it doesn't change the fact that Chen Yi is already an outer sect steward."

"It's not just the outer sect stewards; the techniques bestowed by Master Zheng, and the promised outer sect disciple positions—each of these is an opportunity that could allow Chen Yi to soar to great heights."

"To put it bluntly, let alone you, even I would have to be very polite to Chen Yi from now on."

Liu Can was unwilling to accept it, but was he really willing to?

No one was willing to accept it, but no matter how unwilling they were, they couldn't change anything.

Upon hearing Li Hong's words, Liu Can's eyes instantly turned cold. He glanced at Li Hong and couldn't hold back any longer, his tone filled with obvious anger: "I said long ago that I wanted to destroy the Chen family, but you said you weren't in a hurry, and that the Chen family was just an ant that could be crushed at any time."

"And now? You, Li Hong, are in the late Foundation Establishment stage, so why don't you go and trample on him? How come you're saying you have to be polite to Chen Yi from now on?"

"If you had listened to me earlier, you wouldn't be in this situation today. Mr. Li, no matter what mistakes you made, it's all your fault in the end."

He could no longer suppress the resentment in his heart. He originally had a chance to avoid this situation, but now he had ended up like this, all because of Li Hong.

That damned bastard deserves to die sooner, just like Zhao Dezhi.

Li Hong chuckled twice, then looked up at Liu Can and said, "You're being a bit presumptuous. You're not under my jurisdiction, but I'm an outer sect steward. You'd better think carefully about how you should speak to me. Besides, given the current situation, if Chen Yi insists on targeting you, only I can put in a good word for you."

He is stronger than Liu Can in terms of ability and has a higher status. Now, facing this situation, instead of putting in more effort to please him, Liu Can dares to make such arrogant remarks, which shows that he really doesn't understand his situation.

Even if he had made a mistake before, Liu Can shouldn't have brought it up again. To bring it up again would be disrespectful to him as a steward.

"Fine, fine, we're all in the same boat, now you're using your status to pressure me?" Liu Can was filled with rage and almost wanted to flip the table.

However, no matter how angry he was, his life was still more important. He gritted his teeth, and when he spoke again, he looked ashamed. He clasped his hands in a fist and bowed, saying, "Brother Li, I was wrong just now. Please don't take it to heart."

Li Hong chuckled and said, "Not bad, as expected of a deputy sect leader, you see the situation clearly. I won't waste my breath on you. I can speak well of you in front of Master Zheng, and even risk angering him to try to transfer you to my command. That way, you won't have to fear Chen Yi's retaliation at any time."

Liu Can's eyes lit up, and he almost knelt down before Li Hong, saying excitedly, "Brother Li is so kind and righteous, Liu Can thanks you in advance."

Li Hong scoffed inwardly, thinking Liu Can was being foolish. He stopped hiding his intentions and said, "I can spare your life, but you should give me something in return. Once the Earth Vein Spirit Chrysalis condenses, I'll get five, and you can take only one. How about that?"

The more Earth Vein Spirit Pupae the better, of course. Such spiritual treasures of heaven and earth, if used properly, can have effects far beyond just helping him break through to the Golden Core stage quickly.

To put it bluntly, the Earth Vein Spirit Cocoon's function was so great that he could take this opportunity to ruthlessly exploit Liu Can.

Liu Can was stunned. He had thought Li Hong was genuinely trying to help him, but little did he know that this was what was waiting for him. This damned old beast was far too greedy.

"What, you're not willing?" Li Hong frowned.

Liu Canxin's heart turned completely cold. He glanced at Li Hong and thought, "If you're so ruthless as to take advantage of my misfortune, then don't blame me for going all out."

He did have a grudge against Chen Yi, but he didn't mind using everything he knew to exchange for a chance to pledge allegiance and live.

In other words, if pushed too far, he could become Chen Yi's loyal henchman.

To survive, and to vent his anger at Li Hong's coercion, he would do anything.
