Having cultivated myself into an immortal, all I want to do is raise female disciples.

Because she clearly saw that the young man in front of her did not have a storage ring in his hand.

All ten fingers were clean, without even a trace of having worn a ring.

But how can someone without a storage ring take things out of thin air?

Could it be that my "old man" really is a ghost?

"What's wrong? Why are you staring at me all of a sudden?" Yun Ping smiled faintly, glancing at Ren Yao, whose eyes were filled with shock, and teased, "What's wrong, you've taken a fancy to me?"

The girl's face flushed red. Inexperienced in such matters, she couldn't bear such words, and a blush immediately rose to her ears.

She lowered her head, like an ostrich trying to bury itself, and her rebuttal was barely audible: "I didn't... I didn't..."

—This girl really can't stand being teased...

Seeing Ren Yao's incredible reaction, Yun Ping smiled, picked up his teacup, took a small sip, leaned back in his chair with a sense of ease, and crossed his legs.

He had no intention of continuing to tease the girl; flirting was fine as long as it was just a little playful.

So, he unusually straightened his expression and asked in a deep voice, "So, what exactly happened between your Senior Sister Li and Qin Guang?"

Although he had a slight idea, Yunping still wanted to confirm it.

When faced with Yunping's question, Ren Yao was taken aback, seemingly still caught up in the previous topic.

After pausing for several seconds, and waiting for the blush to fade a little, she stammered, her eyes darting around, "This... well..."

"Don't worry, it's just you and me here. What you say will only be known to me."

"Well……"

Ren Yao hesitated for a few seconds, but finally couldn't hold back and nodded.

"Senior Brother Qin Guang has been in love with Senior Sister Li for a long time, no... it can't be called in love, it can only be said that he has wanted her for a long time."

"want to?"

"Hmm." Ren Yao nodded her little head. When she brought up this topic, her tone became a little strange: "Senior Brother Qin Guang actually already has a cultivation partner, and more than one at that."

Yunping took a sip of tea, seemingly amused, then propped his cheek up with his right hand, his deadpan eyes suddenly brightening: "Quite interesting, continue—"

"Senior Brother Qin Guang... how should I put it... I just feel that Senior Brother Qin Guang's swordsmanship is very powerful and his cultivation talent is also very high, but he is always very... very obsessed with women. Counting the junior sister before, Senior Brother Qin Guang already has four dual cultivation partners."

"Wow! Four girls! This kid has good stamina."

Upon hearing this, Ren Yao's face flushed even more. She hurriedly took a few steps away to distance herself from the old rogue, and continued, "But Senior Brother Qin Guang was still not satisfied, so... so he wanted to make Senior Sister Li his dual cultivation partner as well."

"Senior Sister Li has no interest in Senior Brother Qin Guang, but in half a month, there will be the sect competition. This competition will determine the chief disciple, who will be the next sect leader of Ranshan Sect. The chief disciple can also make a request to the sect leader."

"Senior Brother Qin Guang... probably wants to use the title of chief disciple to get the sect leader to personally arrange a marriage between the two of them during the chief disciple competition in half a month."

It turned out to be the case.

Such people do exist.

He is particularly obsessed with women and fantasizes about one day opening a huge harem with three thousand concubines to choose from, three in one night, three hundred and sixty-five days a year, and no two women the same.

This wasn't the first time the old rogue had encountered someone like this. He had even met a cultivator who specialized in dual cultivation, who forcibly broke through the Saint realm using dual cultivation methods, relying solely on his own indestructible silver spear to reach the Saint realm.

That kid has truly had countless women under his control, managing to go from the bed of a lowly cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage to the bed of a powerful expert in the Void Transformation stage. Such an experience is truly unique in the world.

Therefore, when he learned of Qin Guang's interests, he didn't show much surprise.

However, even the old rogue could see that if Qin Guang were to actually fight Li Junxiao, the outcome would be self-evident.

Li Junxiao will undoubtedly be defeated.

In other words, the moment she lost, she was powerless to stop Qin Guang from ascending to the top position.

For her, this loss meant a lifetime of regret.

"Oh no!"

Just as Yunping was about to say something, Ren Yao suddenly exclaimed and then ran out the door in a loud voice.

Then, as if forgetting something, she turned back to Yunping and said, "I... I still have to hand in the Demon Purification request, and then I have to return books to the library... I have a lot to do, so... so please stay here for now and don't leave, okay..."

"Row."

Yunping nodded and agreed to Ren Yao's request.

He could roughly guess what the girl was thinking—she probably felt that her casual movement within the mountain gate as an outsider would cause unnecessary misunderstandings, since not everyone could explain it away.

"I'll be going now, I'll come see you later!"

After saying that, Ren Yao hurriedly disappeared from Yun Ping's sight.

Watching Ren Yao's departing figure, Yun Ping couldn't help but chuckle, thinking to himself that this girl was somewhat similar to his own black-haired daughter—both were a bit dim-witted.

However, unlike Zhang Ruoxue, Ren Yao has a softer personality, while Ruoxue... is completely a grumpy older brother, no, a grumpy older sister.

Looking up at the bright sun in the sky, Yun Ping stretched, got up from his chair, and walked lazily into the sunlight-drenched outdoor area, yawning.

next second.

He tilted his head slightly, took a half step back with his right foot, and turned his body slightly to the side.

call out--

A dark shadow swept past my cheek, less than half a centimeter away, instantly stirring up a swift and fierce gust of wind.

Yunping squinted at the black object that was diagonally embedded in the grass, and couldn't help but twitch his lips.

Iron...shovel?

Someone actually used this thing to ambush him?

Just then, a surge of spiritual energy came from behind him, and a swift figure rushed over.

"Who dares to trespass on the Ren family manor?!"

……

at the same time.

Ren Yao, who was walking on her way to submit the commission, suddenly stopped, her face turning extremely ugly.

"It's over... it's over..."

She was so shocked that she dropped the magical artifact she was using to purify the demon.

She remembered.

"I think I forgot to tell Mr. Yun about Uncle Ding! Oh no!"

She quickly picked up the magical artifact and turned to run wildly towards her own manor.

Ren Yao is feeling terrible right now; she actually forgot something so important!

Uncle Ding doesn't recognize anyone. No matter who it is, if they barge in without saying hello, they'll definitely be smashed into the ground by Uncle Ding's shovel!

Mr. Yun, you must hold on, don't get buried by Uncle Ding!

5. You are my dear uncle.

When Ren Yao returned to the manor, only one figure stood on the vast open space, on the lush grass.

Wearing a light blue long robe, the young man casually carried a dark black iron shovel and stood under the scorching sun, yawning as if he were very idle.

Seemingly sensing Ren Yao's return, the young man named Yun Ping turned to the side and curiously glanced at the girl whose face showed anxiety.

"Oh, you're back so soon? You've taken care of the request and returning the books?"

"Not...not yet."

Ren Yao shook her head and looked around, but couldn't see her Uncle Ding, so she quickly went over to him.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you before, there's another person in our manor."

"There's another one?" Yunping asked, carrying a shovel, his expression somewhat strange. "Is it a short, stout old man with a goatee, a hunched back, and an injured leg?"

"Huh?! Mr. Yun, how did you know...?"

The young man nodded knowingly, let out a long sigh, and then put down the shovel on his shoulder and shoveled it into the ground.

This action unsurprisingly caught Ren Yao's attention. She tilted her head in confusion, still wondering how Yun Ping knew what Ding Bo looked like.

Yunping provided a perfect explanation through his actions.

"As for how I know..."

The old rogue stepped onto the shovel, and several mysterious and unpredictable spells suddenly appeared in the ground directly in front of him.

It was a spell that Ren Yao had never seen before. In terms of form, it did not belong to any spell she was familiar with. It seemed to be completely made up, but it had its own rules.

She stared blankly at the ground beneath Yunping's feet. A few seconds later, a surge of spiritual energy suddenly erupted from within the earth, causing the lawn to crack and a large amount of soil mixed with weeds to fly out.

boom!

After a violent tremor, the initial crack burst open like a volcanic eruption, and what emerged from it was—

A human head.

To be precise, it's an old man's head.

"Cough cough..."

The old man, with a goatee and slightly aged features, coughed violently, but what came out of his mouth was not anything else but dark brown ash and weeds.

"Uncle Ding?!"

Ren Yao stood there dumbfounded, rubbing her eyes several times before she could believe that what was happening before her eyes was not a dream.

She walked around almost halfway around Uncle Ding's head, then half-squatted down, reached out and touched Uncle Ding's already bald head, and asked with a look of surprise and doubt, "Uncle Ding, what are you doing in the soil?"

Faced with this question, Ding Bo replied with a serious expression, "If I said I was planning to plant myself, would you believe me, Miss?"

Ren Yao thought for a few seconds, then nodded.

"Uncle Ding is so knowledgeable about spiritual plants, he should be able to grow them himself, right?"

"It would be a miracle if they could do that."

The old rogue ruthlessly shattered Miss Ren Yao's ignorant illusions.

Yunping helplessly spread his hands and said with a wry smile, "He suddenly appeared and attacked me, so I fought back a little, and then it turned out like this."
