"Thank you for what?"

"Thank you for taking care of me. I should have been the one taking care of you."

"Didn't you also take care of me when I was injured?"

"I…that's different."

“Nothing is different.”

Chen Yin divided the deer and roasted it beside the fire, saying calmly, "I am very grateful to Senior Sister for saving me."

"But I owe you a favor, so I'll return it. That's all."

Shen Shuanglian hugged her knees somewhat dejectedly.

"No other reason?"

"What other reasons do you want to hear, Senior Sister? I can make them up now."

Hearing this, Shen Shuanglian pouted unhappily.

"Are you good at making up nice things to make girls happy?"

"Of course. How can you flirt with girls when you're out and about without some skills?"

"But I've never heard you coax me." Shen Shuanglian stared into his eyes, "Is it because I'm not considered a girl?"

"If you want to hear it, I can tell you now. But before that--"

Chen Yin handed her a chiseled stone bowl containing a bowl of medicinal soup.

"Drink the medicine first."

Shen Shuanglian looked at the medicine, and for the first time a hint of fear appeared on her pretty face, and her little head shrank slightly.

"Is this medicine... bitter?"

"All medicines are bitter."

"Can I not drink?"

"No." Chen Yin stretched out his hand towards her motionlessly.

Shen Shuanglian struggled for a long time, but finally took the stone bowl, gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and drank it all in one gulp.

The next moment, her little face wrinkled into a ball, and she couldn't help sticking out her tongue, looking like she wanted to cry but had no tears.

"This...this is too bitter." Her voice seemed to become soft and even a little like she was acting coquettish.

Chen Yin looked at her distressed expression with some amusement.

"I'm done."

"Yeah. Very obedient."

"It's your turn." She stared at Chen Yin.

"what?"

"Say nice things to me, so that I don't feel so bitter. Don't go back on your words."

Chen Yin looked at Shen Shuanglian who suddenly acted like a child throwing a tantrum, and couldn't help but teasing, "I do know a folk remedy that can cure bitterness in the mouth."

"what?"

"Find someone to kiss. Share half of the pain with him."

Shen Shuanglian was so embarrassed that she couldn't speak.

Chen Yin burst into laughter. This senior sister was even cuter than he had imagined. Unlike Xiang'er, who was gentle and easily blushed and shy, the senior sister was usually cold as ice, but once she talked about shy topics, she would be so shy that she couldn't speak and wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into. This was also very interesting.

It makes people want to bully her more and more.

The joke was almost over, and Chen Yin was just about to coax this cold-outside-and-shitty senior sister when a deafening tiger roar suddenly came from outside the cave.

Shen Shuanglian's expression suddenly changed and she struggled to stand up.

"This aura... Purple Bearded Thunder Mane Tiger!"

"Be careful, an adult purple-bearded thunder-mane tiger is at least at the upper Qing realm. Hide quickly."

As she spoke, she staggered, drew her sword, and tried to walk towards the door.

Chen Yin looked at the demon pill in the pot awkwardly.

……broken.

I guess the parents are going to come and find trouble for their child.

37. Don’t be afraid of what I am about to say…

Outside the cave, a gigantic purple-haired tiger let out a roar that shook the sky, scaring away all the birds and beasts in the forest and causing the rocks to tremble.

Shen Shuanglian's face was slightly pale, but her eyes quickly calmed down. She protected Chen Yin behind her with one hand and bit her lip slightly.

"I'll hold him back. You run to the other side of the mountain. Don't look back."

Chen Yin looked at the huge purple-haired tiger with some embarrassment. He was too embarrassed to tell Shen Shuanglian that he was the one who caused the trouble, so he could only say, "Senior Sister is so badly injured, don't try to be brave."

"You are! Stop trying to be so stubborn!"

Shen Shuanglian's tone was unusually serious: "This adult purple-bearded thunder-maned tiger is definitely at the Upper Clarity Realm. Your Upper Cloud Realm cultivation base can't even withstand the aftermath."

"Don't worry about me, I still have a life-saving hand--"

"Of course I know that Senior Sister has ways to save her life." Chen Yin laughed.

"To become the top genius in the world, who wouldn't have some hidden treasures? But..."

"...Me too." He turned his gaze to the huge purple tiger.

Shen Shuanglian was stunned for a moment.

The figure of Chen Yin was reflected in the purple tiger's eyes. It roared suddenly, crushed the rocks with one foot, and rushed towards Chen Yin with a tremendous force.

Chen Yin stared at it with a calm look in his eyes. The Changming sword in his hand floated up and he whispered:

"I have no intention of taking your child's life. Nor do I intend to kill you."

"If you don't leave, you'll die."

His tone was extremely calm.

But the purple-haired tiger seemed to sense some kind of life-and-death crisis. All its hair stood on end, its body arched, and it braked abruptly three meters away from Chen Yin.

And just where it stopped, a bottomless sword mark stretched across.

The purple-bearded thunder-maned tiger was stunned. Shen Shuanglian was also stunned.

She didn't even see when Chen Yin drew his sword.

But the sword mark actually appeared before his eyes.

It's like dividing the entire ravine into two.

The purple-bearded thunder-mane tiger seemed to swallow with lingering fear, and its body shrank back with a whimper. Its two bright eyes stared at Chen Yin vigilantly.

Shen Shuanglian also looked at him blankly.

Chen Yin just sighed helplessly, his face still looking lazy and casual, and said softly:

"As a spiritual beast, you live in an environment where the weak are the prey of the strong. I am already merciful enough to spare your lives. Moreover, this place is full of spiritual energy, and the loss of your cultivation will be recovered in a few years. Why should you lose your life because of pettiness?"

"I'll give you one more chance. If you don't leave, I don't mind giving my friend some more tonic."

The purple-bearded thunder-mane tiger paced back and forth twice, letting out a low roar from its throat. It stared at Chen Yin for a long time before it let out an unwilling howl and turned its head away quickly.

Chen Yin then breathed a sigh of relief and turned his head to look at Shen Shuanglian somewhat awkwardly.

"Um... Senior Sister. Let's discuss something."

"Just pretend you didn't see what happened just now, okay?"

Shen Shuanglian didn't say anything, her clear eyes still fixed on him.

Chen Yin scratched his head. It seemed that this matter was really impossible to fool around.

"That sword." Unexpectedly, Shen Shuanglian was the first to speak, "Does it have a name?"

"……I have no idea."

Chen Yin thought about it and realized that he really didn't know the names of these three swords. Perhaps the person who created these three swords was also a lazy person like himself and was too lazy to even come up with a name.

"I don't know what to call it, so let's call it 'The First Sword'." Chen Yin nodded with satisfaction.

Shen Shuanglian: “…”

Chen Yin asked curiously, "Isn't it nice to listen to?"

"……as long as you are happy."

Shen Shuanglian put away the sword, walked to the sword mark, and gently stroked it.

As a fellow swordsman, she could clearly feel that there was a mysterious aura wafting from the sword mark.

It was hard to describe that feeling, but it inexplicably made Shen Shuanglian feel at home.

"Could this be... the Dao rhyme that Master mentioned?" Shen Shuanglian said hesitantly.

"Daoyun? What is that?"

Seeing Chen Yin standing aside with a confused look on his face, Shen Shuanglian looked surprised: "You used the sword yourself, don't you know it yourself?"

Chen Yin shook his head.

"For cultivators to cultivate immortality, all they want is to cultivate the Dao and realize the Dao. The Dao exists in heaven and earth. If one can sense the existence of the Dao, then one has already entered the realm of Shangqing."

“Therefore, the cultivators in the Upper Purity Realm can use the Great Dao as a template to communicate with heaven and earth and use the power of heaven and earth for their own benefit.”

"But at this point, it's just borrowing. The so-called great way is not something you can realize on your own."

"If you truly realize the Great Dao, then every move you make will reflect the Great Dao. To go against you is the same as going against the Great Dao. Therefore, a person who has realized the Great Dao will absolutely crush a person who has not, no matter how close their strengths are. This is the difference at a fundamental level."

"But do you know?" Shen Shuanglian shook her head again, "Even many of the Supreme Immortals in the Great Purity Realm have not fully realized the Great Dao."

"Even if one can barely let a trace of Taoism flow through his moves, the power will already be extraordinary."

Chen Yin then nodded thoughtfully.

"As expected of you, you are the senior sister. You know it so clearly."

Shen Shuanglian lowered his eyes slightly: "Master... that is, the sect master, is still stuck at the threshold of fully realizing the great Dao. Therefore, his cultivation level has always been the middle stage of the Taiqing Realm, and he has never been able to take the last step and attain the Dao and ascend to immortality."

Chen Yin immediately joked: "So what you mean is that I can now fight with your master?"

"I don't know..." Shen Shuanglian looked a little confused. She seemed curious about the sword, but didn't want to ask too much about Chen Yin's privacy.

Chen Yin saw what this girl who was not good at hiding her thoughts was thinking, and did not hide it from her, and took the initiative to say:

"I found this sword move by chance in a secret place. There is no unique skill, just this ordinary sword move. You will become more powerful after practicing it for a long time."

Shen Shuanglian looked at him suspiciously: "Have you been practicing for a long time? How long have you been practicing?"

Chen Yin stopped talking.

How long? I can't remember.

One or two days? Tens of millions of years?

In a space without the concept of time, I just kept repeating the action of swinging the sword. I practiced until my consciousness became blurred.

They were not released until they had mastered the skill.

"In short, it will take a long time." Finally, Chen Yin just smiled bitterly.

Shen Shuanglian was tactful enough not to ask any more questions.

"But, Senior Sister, I still want to know."

Chen Yin approached Shen Shuanglian out of curiosity again and asked in a frivolous tone, "If I hadn't used that sword just now, would Senior Sister have planned to stay and buy time for me?"

"It turns out that Senior Sister cares so much about my safety."

"Don't talk nonsense."

Shen Shuanglian looked slightly embarrassed: "I am the sect's senior sister, and I should protect the disciples within the sect."

"Yes yes yes~"
