I'm just lazing around cultivating in the world of Jade Dynasty.

"I see!"

Zeng Shushu raised an eyebrow, his eyes filled with a lewd expression as he looked at Li Qingan, before letting out a wicked laugh.

"Hey hey hey..."

"Don't worry, leave it to me. I guarantee your heroic deeds will be known throughout Qingyun!"

The two chatted for a few more minutes, discussing how to improve the two books!

Half an hour later, Zeng Shushu returned to Feng Hui Peak with great interest, ready to ponder it carefully.

In addition to his love of reading, he has recently developed a love of writing books.

Furthermore, he suddenly had the idea to write down Li Qing'an's deeds, hoping to ride on his friend's fame and achieve lasting fame.

Wouldn't that be wonderful? You know, even for his father, Zeng Shuchang, it would be extremely impossible to have his name passed down within the Qingyun Sect for a thousand years.

His own son has already surpassed him.

Zeng Shushu let out a 'hehe' laugh and rode away on the Xuanyuan Sword.

"It's already noon, time for lunch!"

Li Qingan glanced at the sky, stood up, and went to the kitchen of Tianzhen Peak.

These past few days, he has been cooking and waiting for Lu Xueqi at Tianzhen Peak at noon, and going to Dazhu Peak for dinner, which has been quite leisurely.

Trying to please both sides!

He can be considered a master of time management.

"Brother, you should avoid getting too close to Zeng Shushu!"

A moment later, Lu Xueqi arrived at the Tianzhen Peak kitchen on time.

"Crack, click, click!"

Li Qingan continued chopping vegetables at a leisurely pace, the sound echoing in the kitchen.

With Li Qingan's strength and swordsmanship, cutting vegetables is a piece of cake.

Li Qingan took the plate from Lu Xueqi and placed the shredded carrots on it.

"Xueqi, why do you say that?"

Lu Xueqi rolled up her sleeves, revealing her fair wrists, and assisted Li Qing'an, responding:

"I feel he's not a good person, and his personality is too erratic."

Lu Xueqi paused, placed the washed vegetables to Li Qing'an's right, and affirmed, "Even more lively than my brother!"

Li Qing'an was speechless. If you counted, he had only been to a brothel once, but Zeng Shushu had been there several times and seemed to be a bit more unconventional than him.

But would he dare say that?

"Really? I didn't see that coming!"

Li Qingan chuckled a few times and then chopped the vegetables beside him.

Lu Xueqi looked at Li Qingan, sensing that her brother was hiding something.

But she still explained.

"When my senior sisters came down the mountain, they also discovered that Zeng Shushu often went to Heyang City. He had no secluded cultivation manners as a cultivator and only knew how to have fun."

"So, brother, you didn't go down the mountain with him to play around in Heyang City, did you?"

Lu Xueqi dried the water stains on her hands with her vital energy, and stared straight at Li Qingan with her cold eyes, as if trying to see through him.

"Of course not. I'll go down the mountain with Xueqi! We can go to the mortal world then. I've heard that the Qixi Festival is quite nice."

Li Qingan calmly put firewood into the earthen stove.

"The Qixi Festival?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Xueqi's icy eyes revealed a hint of shyness, and she fell silent.

"Once you break through to the Upper Clarity Realm, how about we go travel around and have some fun?"

The flames crackled and popped in the stove, and the hot oil in the pot quickly boiled.

Li Qingan placed Sichuan peppercorns, chili flakes, and other seasonings on his right hand, and after they became fragrant, he added shredded pork... (The process of making Yu Xiang Rou Si (Fish-Fragrant Shredded Pork) is omitted here).

Lu Xueqi watched this familiar and peaceful scene from the side, and a smile unconsciously appeared on her face.

Lu Xueqi brushed a stray strand of hair behind her ear; to her, this was not a question.

She also longs to return to the small town where she grew up.

"Get your plates, it's time to eat!"

The kitchen was filled with the smell of cooking oil and smoke. To the other Qingyun disciples, he was an ethereal and handsome man, arguably the most handsome in Qingyun.

Li Qingan kept stirring the food in the pan with his right hand, and couldn't hide the smile on his face.

He could always let his guard down and show his truest self in front of Lu Xueqi.

Lu Xueqi always manages to shed her icy exterior when she's alone with Li Qingan.

After a while.

At the dining table outside the kitchen, wisps of steam rose from two dishes and a soup.

Li Qingan's face had a few bits of soot that he had 'accidentally' gotten on it.

"Xueqi, there's something dirty on my face, can you wipe it off for me?"

"Oh!"

Lu Xueqi had no doubt that as a cultivator, a mere stain could be easily removed with a single spell.

Or perhaps she knew, but she also enjoyed this kind of ordinary life, so she didn't say anything.

Lu Xueqi stepped forward, took out her handkerchief, and gently wiped the stains off Li Qingan's face.

Li Qingan looked at Lu Xueqi's face so close to his own, a smile playing on his lips, and kissed her fair cheek.

but.....

"Brother, be serious, we still need to eat!"

Lu Xueqi covered Li Qingan's mouth with her hand, saying helplessly.

But she didn't stop, carefully wiping the dirt off Li Qing'an's face.

"Xiao Xueqi is so nice!"

Li Qingan was not disappointed; on the contrary, he found it even more interesting.

Life as a couple needs surprises.

"Let's eat!"

Lu Xueqi put her hand down and put away the stained handkerchief.

Then, like a virtuous wife and loving mother, she went to the dining table, served Li Qing'an's rice, and then served herself.

"Xueqi, do you think it will take you a few more years to break through to the Shangqing Realm?"

Li Qingan sat down next to Lu Xueqi and asked.

"Originally, it would have taken about eight to nine years!"

Lu Xueqi paused for a moment, then continued, "But with the first volume of the Heavenly Book and the experience passed down by my brother, it will take at least one or two years, and at most five or six years!"

"It will take that long?" Li Qingan was somewhat surprised.

But then I realized something.

He originally broke through in the underwater formation, where his foundation and comprehension were sufficient, which is why he was able to break through quickly.

Breaking through from the Shangqing Realm to the Taiqing Realm requires even more time.

Li Qing'an felt that his foundation was now sufficient to break through to the Taiqing Realm, but if he wanted to advance to a higher level based on the Taiqing Realm, he still needed to accumulate more knowledge. Moreover, the "True Techniques of Array Dao" required foundation and the Heavenly Book as a foundation, and the system panel as a catalyst to trigger a mysterious reaction between the two, allowing him to further peek into the gate of immortality.

"That's fast enough, brother!" Lu Xueqi swallowed slowly before speaking.

"In all calculations, my cultivation speed is among the best in the thousand-year history of the Qingyun Sect. Apart from you, I am number one!"

Li Qingan nodded. He was also very confident in Lu Xueqi's aptitude. If Zhang Xiaofan wasn't the chosen one, and he hadn't cheated, then...

This era undoubtedly belongs to Lu Xueqi.

"Excellent, excellent! My little Xueqi truly has the potential to become an immortal!"

Lu Xueqi put down her chopsticks. If this talent could allow her and Li Qingan to pursue the path to immortality together.

She will surely make this celestial appearance a stepping stone to her own ascension to immortality.

Thinking of this, Lu Xueqi lost her appetite and dragged Li Qingan to the martial arts arena on Tianzhen Peak, asking Li Qingan to guide her in cultivation.

And so, Li Qingan guided Lu Xueqi in her cultivation, and also looked at the books Han Ben had brought from the mountain.

Time passes day by day.

Later, Tian Ling'er secretly came to Tianzhen Peak and noisily joined Li Qing'an's guidance team.

Until nine years later

...........

Chapter 157 Nine Years Later! Three years after three years, I'm about to become the Vice Sect Master of the Ghost King Sect!

The sun and moon revolve, the seasons change.

Nine years have passed in the blink of an eye.

It has been less than a year since the Heavenly Emperor's Treasury in the Western Death Swamp was revealed.

Perhaps out of concern for Dao Xuan's strength, most of the demonic sects have been keeping quiet and recuperating during this period.

But nine years is one-sixth of a mortal's lifespan, which is enough time for the Demonic Cult to cultivate new blood.

thus,

A minor skirmish began between the righteous and the demonic factions, and three young masters of great importance emerged from within the demonic sect.
