Chapter 384: Sisterly Bond, Deep as the Sea
Chapter 384: Sisterly Bond, Deep as the Sea
"When the Glacier Tyrantess wakes up, remember to tell her that I've reached the Purple Mansion!" Qi Yuan announced in the Divine Flower Society's group chat before exiting the conversation.
As he walked through the Divine Light Sect, all cultivators, be it disciples or elders, showed reverence upon seeing Qi Yuan.
It was evident that Qi Yuan had become a legendary figure within the sect.
"Is that the senior brother?"
"I heard he's even stronger than Kang Fulu!"
"Didn't Kang Fulu make it onto the Eastern Soil's Pride Chart?" some disciples exclaimed.
Forget the Eastern Soil's Pride Chart, even the Grand Business Pride Chart was an unattainable existence for them.
"What's the Eastern Soil's Pride Chart? Senior Brother Qi Yuan made it onto the... Grand Business Pride Chart!"
"Huh? What's that chart?"
"Hehe, you don't know? My cousin's brother told me he saw with his own eyes that Senior Brother Qi Yuan made it onto the mysterious Grand Business Pride Chart!"
"I don't believe it. It's just a rumor. Kang Fulu is the first pride of the Divine Light Sect. He dares to... peep at female disciples bathing!"
"Senior Brother Qi Yuan does! He dares to steal the intimate clothing of beautiful female elders!"
These people started arguing for no apparent reason.
Seeing this, Qi Yuan sighed, "Hey, I've never stolen any female elder's intimate clothing. Please don't spread rumors!"
"Senior Brother!" The disciples quickly bowed in greeting.
The female disciple who had spoken up for Qi Yuan earlier proudly said, "Senior Brother Qi Yuan didn't steal the elder's clothing. The beautiful elder sent it to him herself at night!"
She felt proud of her wit, ensuring she didn't portray Senior Brother Qi Yuan as a thief.
"Oh..."
Qi Yuan was at a loss for words.
Such a thing... seemed to have actually happened.
But that was when he was refining the Five Elements Energy, causing some chaotic madness in the Divine Light Sect.
It shouldn't be taken seriously.
"You, after three years, have made some progress. Now that you're an official disciple, stop spreading rumors! Official disciples represent the face of the Divine Light Sect."
Qi Yuan glanced at this fan and casually spoke before his figure disappeared.
Hearing this, the woman's eyes lit up with joy, "Senior Brother Qi Yuan... actually remembers me!"
Back then, she was a miscellaneous disciple at the Divine Herb Peak, specifically tasked with reception. When Senior Brother Qi Yuan sought medicine at the peak, she received him and recommended he seek Elder Xuan Chong.
Later, Senior Brother Qi Yuan even pointed out issues with her cultivation, which she resolved, leading to her advancement as an official disciple.
...
Upon returning to the Seven-Colored Peak, Qi Yuan was in a good mood.
Having reached the Purple Mansion, his prestige and status naturally improved.
He couldn't bear to see that there were still houses in the Divine Light Sect more impressive than his own.
Elder Ku Mu Zhenjun, having received Qi Yuan's design plans, was already arranging for construction to build a small cottage for Qi Yuan.
"With a small cottage, I'll be worthy of my status.
My wives can move in, and they won't have to worry about not having their own bedrooms!"
Qi Yuan's thoughts.
Of course, there was also his daughter, Qi Jian Jun, who ran around aimlessly every day and fished randomly.
Nowadays, Qi Jian Jun didn't even know where she was running off to.
As for Shen Wushen, she was likely still in the Upper Realm, and according to the timing, she would descend again soon to pass on divine arts to Qi Yuan.
Thinking of Shen Wushen, Qi Yuan's gaze naturally drifted towards the palace atop the Seven-Colored Peak, as well as the ancient giant Qichun tree.
"Shen Wushen once said that the letter would take three years to reach Jin Li, and it's already been two and a half years..."
In half a year, Jin Li would receive his letter.
Qi Yuan's heart stirred with a faint ripple of emotion.
He recalled the petite figure of Moon Maiden by the July Lake and the female emperor Jin Li, whom he had never met.
"Senior Brother, run!"
Just then, a hurried voice called out, and Jiang Ling Su, dressed warmly, quickly flew to Qi Yuan's side, tightly embracing his arm.
Jiang Ling Su's voice snapped Qi Yuan out of his reverie.
"What's the rush? Is the sky falling or something?" he asked.
By now, Qi Yuan had become the legendary Purple Mansion cultivator, naturally exuding composure and remaining calm even in the face of impending disaster.
"My father is coming!" Jiang Ling Su exclaimed.
Qi Yuan's mind immediately flashed to the image of that enthusiastic uncle.
Back then, on the Solitary Boat, that uncle was very warm and friendly.
For his grand plan, Qi Yuan "tricked" everyone into coming to the Divine Flower Society to transmit cultivation methods, personally telling stories as the Origin Venerable.
He portrayed himself as someone of lowly status, looked down upon by his senior brother, and treated with disdain.
Then, he uploaded cultivation methods to the Divine Flower Society, exchanging them for powerful techniques, attracting countless admirers, including the cold and reserved senior sister who conveyed her feelings through her eyes, and the well-endowed junior sister who sneaked into his room at midnight.
At that moment, Jing Ruohua took the Origin Venerable's story seriously and personally guided Qi Yuan based on her own experiences, choosing the busty junior sister.
As for the busty junior sister's father not agreeing?
Jing Ruohua took matters into her own hands and got the junior sister pregnant, leaving her father with no choice but to accept the situation.
Sharing his experiences with the younger generation and satisfying his desire to teach was a very enjoyable experience.
But... when the busty junior sister's father turned out to be himself, Jing Ruohua couldn't keep up the act any longer.
Neglecting his businesses, he moved into the Grand Merchant City.
Upon hearing that Qi Yuan had awakened, he immediately rushed over.
Qi Yuan, upon learning that it was Jing Ruohua, also felt a bit unsettled: "I really need to run away, otherwise... it would be too embarrassing!"
Qi Yuan, being socially anxious, dared not meet Jing Ruohua again.
When they met, it was incredibly awkward.
"Run!" Qi Yuan, thinking of Jiang Ling Su, transformed into a shadow and disappeared.
Outside the Seven-Colored Peak, Jing Ruohua, dressed in a green robe, watched the streak of light in the sky and couldn't help but curse, "You little brat, why are you running!"
He wished he could slash at it with his sword.
But his daughter was still there!
"You little brat, and you even got me banned from the Divine Flower Society. You have no respect for your elders!"
Jing Ruohua was indignant.
He had originally planned to spread rumors on the Divine Flower Society's forum, but as soon as he cursed the Origin Venerable, he was banned.
"Sigh, what a miscalculation. I originally wanted to pass on the dragon slaying technique to that kid, but who knew I was the dragon!"
Helan Continent, located north of the Eastern Soil, was of average ranking among the thirteen continents.
At this moment, on a pavilion, a man in a crimson robe leaned against the railing, his gaze occasionally sweeping over the passing cultivators below, his eyes filled with contemplation.
Beside him, Jiang Ling Su held a messaging talisman and seemed to be chatting noisily with someone. From the situation, it seemed like she was complaining.
After an unknown amount of time had passed, Qi Yuan stretched lazily, "I've been too diligent and hardworking."
Since arriving at Helan Continent, Qi Yuan had been using his eyes to 'spy' on the cultivators of the world.
All cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage and above had an imprint within their bodies.
His eyes would receive a piece of information each time he looked at the imprint of a person.
Therefore, he 'spied' on the imprints within everyone's bodies in the world, all for the purpose of finding a way to remove and seal these imprints.
"It's good that I'm watching from a distance, otherwise, if I were on the subway, wouldn't I be exposed online?"
Qi Yuan felt fortunate to live in an era without subways.
Otherwise, with such intense surveillance, he would surely be caught and labeled as a peeping Tom.
Qi Yuan was not a peeping Tom; although he spied, he only looked at the imprints and never anything else.
During these days, after observing so many imprints, his harvest was not significant.
However, he did have some ideas and backup plans.
"Senior Brother, how is it going?" Jiang Ling Su asked when she saw that her senior brother had finished his observation.
In fact, she was currently feeling very frustrated and was waiting for Qi Yuan to finish his task.
In a 169 book bar, she saw a version without any mistakes!
Although she didn't know what her senior brother was doing, she was willing to be a listener.
"Regarding the sealed imprints, I have two plans.
The first plan is to use my Primordial Talent, reciting the Great Forgetfulness Sutra to the imprints daily, making them forget their toxicity.
The second plan is a bit cruel. It involves killing everyone with the imprints, and when people die, the imprints will naturally disappear.
Finally, I can establish a netherworld and let them resurrect there. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"
Jiang Ling Su was stunned for a moment and said seriously, "Senior Brother, these... plans, did you come up with them? They don't seem like something your brain would come up with!"
"Cough, cough, I, the Origin Venerable, never plagiarize!" Qi Yuan argued, but then he said, "These two plans carry significant risks. With the slightest mistake, sigh."
"Senior Brother, are you still observing?" Jiang Ling Su asked eagerly.
"No more observing. I've observed all the cultivators in Helan Continent. Time for a break." Qi Yuan's observation wasn't limited to just the cultivators wandering in the city.
He had spied on all the cultivators in the Foundation Establishment stage and above throughout Helan Continent.
"Senior Brother, you're really good at boasting, even better than Qiong Yun Ting!" Jiang Ling Su rolled her eyes at Qi Yuan.
Even if Senior Brother had advanced to the Purple Mansion stage, it would be impossible for him to observe all the cultivators in Helan Continent with just a glance.
"What is your sister boasting about now?" Qi Yuan asked with a smile.
After arriving at Helan Continent for a few days, the artist went out.
Therefore, Qi Yuan stayed at the Jiang Clan's property in Helan Continent.
One of Jiang Ling Su's "sisters" learned of her arrival and kept inviting Jiang Ling Su to play, constantly boasting about finding a powerful Dao companion.
At first, Qiong Yun Ting looked at Qi Yuan with glowing eyes, and her heart fluttered as she regarded him as her beloved.
However, upon learning that Qi Yuan hailed from a small country, so insignificant that even the Purple Mansion was unaware of its existence, Qiong Yun Ting's glowing eyes turned to disdain.
She sought out Jiang Ling Su, constantly boasting about her fiance.
"What a sham of a sister!" Jiang Ling Su exclaimed angrily, "Her fiance has secluded himself for cultivation and entered the Divine Embryo Realm."
"Aren't you sisters?" Qi Yuan asked in surprise, "Weren't you getting along well before?"
Qi Yuan recalled the previous meeting between Jiang Ling Su and Qiong Yun Ting.
Qiong Yun Ting praised Jiang Ling Su for her hearty appetite and envied her figure, while Jiang Ling Su complimented Qiong Yun Ting on her cuteness and fair skin.
The two seemed to be getting along harmoniously, showering each other with praise.
"Harmonious? Humph, she's nothing but a green tea btch!" Jiang Ling Su muttered indignantly.
The term 'green tea' was something Jiang Ling Su had learned from Qi Yuan.
"Is that so?" Qi Yuan didn't think much of it.
After all, thinking too much would only cause a headache.
Just then, a soft and alluring voice interrupted them, and a woman in an imperial gown approached, "Sister Ling Su, I knew I'd find you here.
Oh, this burgundy dress suits you so well.
You're a bit youthful now, but when you grow up and mature, you'll look even more beautiful!"
Jiang Ling Su smiled warmly, but her smile belied the message she was sending to Qi Yuan.
"She's saying I'll look good when I grow up, but she's actually implying I don't look good now, and I'm trying too hard to act mature!"
As she sent the message, Jiang Ling Su whispered, "I can't compete with my sister; even at this age, she's still so adorable.
This dress is just average, and I don't think my sister will ever wear it. If she did, it would be like a child wearing an adult's coat, confusing the front and back!
I envy my sister; she can buy dresses without worrying about size.
After slaying some Tribulation Cultivators, she can even wear their cultivation robes!"
Qiong Yun Ting's smile momentarily froze, then she laughed, "Although my background is not as impressive as my sister's, I'm lucky to have found a good husband.
I can't even look at those Tribulation Cultivators' robes anymore.
Alas, this is a dilemma; I miss the days when I was poor. After slaying a Tribulation Cultivator, I'd find dozens of Spirit Stones in their Storage Pouch, and it would make me so happy.
But I can't do that anymore.
So, I envy you, sister; you can casually kill Tribulation Cultivators, rummage through their Storage Pouches, and be happy for days.
Alas, having money sometimes takes away many simple joys."
Qiong Yun Ting spoke with a touch of vanity.
Jiang Ling Su rolled her eyes internally.
She was essentially calling her and her senior brother poor.
However, Jiang Ling Su maintained a kind smile on her face, organizing her thoughts for a rebuttal.
At that moment, Qi Yuan spoke up, "I love killing Tribulation Cultivators; they are my enemies, my white moonlight!
As the ancients said, 'Time flows like a river, day and night.' I want my enemies to die endlessly, day and night, and leave all their accumulated wealth to me.
I'm so broke; I can't even afford to buy a piece of land."
Qiong Yun Ting was slightly taken aback by Qi Yuan's words.
She didn't understand much of what he said.
But what she did understand left her feeling disdainful.
People from small places have limited exposure.
And they are broke.
"How much do you need, Qi Yuan? My husband's family is in Cloud Heaven City, and they are somewhat wealthy. It's no problem to take out tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of Spirit Stones.
Considering our years of friendship, lending you some Spirit Stones is no issue."
"Really?" Qi Yuan's face lit up with joy.
He was indeed in need of money.
He needed money to buy land in the Netherworld and to buy stars.
"Perfect! My husband is hosting a Divine Embryo Banquet, and you two can just prepare some gifts and say some nice words. I'll put in a good word with my husband, and you'll surely get enough Spirit Stones.
With our years of friendship, I wouldn't deceive you!"
"Our sisterly bond is as deep as the ocean!" Qi Yuan said happily, "Since we have free time, we might as well attend the Divine Embryo Banquet and borrow some money."
Seeing Qi Yuan's expression, Qiong Yun Ting felt even more smug.
Later, she and her husband would play good cop and bad cop, casually offering a few thousand Spirit Stones as a token.
"For this Divine Embryo Banquet, you must attend, Sister. Many important figures from Helan Continent will be there.
Your family's business in Helan Continent is facing some trouble, and you were almost expelled. If you know some powerful cultivators, perhaps they can help resolve your family's problems!"
