Ye Yan didn’t hesitate much.

Firstly, he expressed his gratitude to Elder Qing Teng for his kind offer. Then, turning towards Ji Suying, he declared:

“Senior Sister, I am willing to join Hidden Sword Peak!”

Ji Suying smiled warmly.

“Wonderful! From this day forward, you are now an Inner Sect disciple of Hidden Sword Peak.”

With that, she handed Ye Yan a waist token and a Storage Bag.

Inside the Storage Bag,

while not overly extravagant,

were abundant resources for Foundation Establishment cultivation,

practically inexhaustible.

Seeing the contents, Ye Yan couldn’t help but stare in astonishment.

Ji Suying chuckled.

“When you run out, just come directly to me. Hidden Sword Peak may lack many things, but when it comes to cultivation resources, we have more than enough!”

Ye Yan’s heart swelled with excitement.

“Many thanks, Senior Sister!”

Ji Suying nodded approvingly.

“Hmm, after this ceremony, return with me to Hidden Sword Peak!”

Ye Yan agreed with a nod.

Meanwhile, Elder Qing Teng’s expression turned sour, even harboring a hint of murderous intent as he glanced at Ye Yan. However, he concealed it well, managing only a regretful smile on the surface.

“Ah, such a promising talent, snatched away from us yet again!”

Suddenly, amidst their conversation,

the surrounding vegetation began to grow wildly.

A female disciple emerged from the secret realm.

With each step, rows of vibrant green plants sprouted beneath her feet.

“This, this is already a transformation to a highest-grade Spirit Root, and she hasn’t even reached Foundation Establishment yet!” Elder Qing Teng’s eyes gleamed with excitement.

“No way! This disciple belongs to Azure Bird Peak!” Qing Teng declared, turning towards Ji Suying.

Ji Suying smiled subtly. “Not so fast, Hidden Sword Peak claims her too!”

Elder Qing Teng shook his head. “Your Hidden Sword Peak primarily focuses on the sword path; this disciple would not be well-suited there! Besides, you already have an exceptional disciple.”

Ji Suying also shook her head. “Who wouldn’t want more outstanding disciples under their guidance?”

Seeing no point in further debate with Ji Suying, Elder Qing Teng addressed the female disciple directly. “I’m sure you’ve heard of Azure Bird Peak, where most cultivators specialize in Wood cultivation. Even our Peak Lord is a renowned Wood Cultivation expert. Young lady, trust me, there’s no place better suited for you than Azure Bird Peak.”

The female disciple nodded affirmatively.

“I am willing to join Azure Bird Peak!”

Elder Qing Teng laughed heartily.

“Hahaha, excellent choice! I assure you, choosing Azure Bird Peak will never lead to regret!”

To seal the deal, he promptly handed over an identity token and a Storage Bag.

The generosity of his offer was truly eye-catching.

A highest-grade wood-element Magic Treasure, matching attire, cultivation resources, and Spirit Stones – it all shimmered dazzlingly before their eyes.

Elder Qing Teng even cast a provocative glance towards Ji Suying.

Ji Suying merely smiled, unfazed by his display.

Instead, she turned her attention to Ye Yan. Seeing that he remained unperturbed as well, Ji Suying felt even more content.

Meanwhile, Liu Shunyi stood unnoticed amidst the crowd.

Realizing that no one paid him any attention, he couldn’t help but sigh with relief.

Naturally, at this moment, Liu Shunyi was simply enjoying the spectacle as a bystander.

“Tsk tsk, I’ve only seen such scenes in novels before; who knew it actually happens!”

As Liu Shunyi observed them handing out Storage Bags and even bestowing highest-grade Magic Treasures to the disciples, he felt genuinely envious.

Although currently wealthy beyond measure, he couldn’t help but recall his own past struggles.

“Damn, even dogs in the cultivation world would shake their heads at this!” Liu Shunyi muttered, watching Ye Yan and the female disciple exuding confidence.

He sighed, “Ah, they’re considered geniuses only if they make it through; cut down halfway, and all potential is lost.”

Liu Shunyi also noticed some disciples turning red-eyed, their gazes filled with murderous intent.

“How terrifying!” He shrank back, taking two more steps away.

Liu Shunyi tried to blend discreetly into the crowd while silently repeating to himself:

“I’m just a bystander, just a bystander.”

However, quite coincidentally, someone’s hand pressed down on his shoulder.

Liu Shunyi turned around and, lo and behold, it was none other than Ji Suying!

Quickly adjusting his tone, he bowed respectfully.
“Greetings, Senior Sister Ji!”

Ji Suying let out a cold laugh.
“Ah, impressive! Just one trip to the secret realm, and your cultivation base has already reached the Qi Refining Seventh Layer!”

Liu Shunyi hastily lowered his head.
“Just luck, pure luck!”

Ji Suying chuckled softly.
“Young man, come with me!”

Liu Shunyi scratched his head nervously.
“Senior Sister, I-I suddenly feel stomach pain!”

“Oh well, endure it then!” replied Ji Suying bluntly.

Liu Shunyi fell silent.

“Well? Are you coming or not? If not, I’ll have my own way of inviting you!” Ji Suying warned, her voice carrying a faint smile.

“Hold on, hold on, alright, I’m coming – right away!” Liu Shunyi quickly acquiesced.

With that, Liu Shunyi followed Ji Suying as they departed together.

Upon arrival at the secret realm, they had traveled together on the same flying boat.

Now, as they departed, they split into two factions.

During their time there, both Ji Suying and Elder Qing Teng had gathered some disciples under them. Consequently, each would return directly to their respective peaks with their new followers.

On the deck of the flying boat, Liu Shunyi felt extremely uneasy.

Ji Suying stood at the very front,

with Liu Shunyi positioned shoulder-to-shoulder beside her.

This proximity caused the surrounding disciples to look at him with confusion, bewilderment, and questioning gazes!

Some expressions even hinted that they wished harm upon him.

“Uh, Senior Sister, isn’t it inappropriate for me to stand so close to you?”

Ji Suying rolled her eyes.

“Do you realize that as a Third Rank Alchemist, you’re considered an Honorary Elder at Hidden Sword Peak!”

Liu Shunyi was taken aback.

“What? I had no idea!”

Ji Suying slowly crossed her arms.

“Well, now you know!” she declared.

After saying this, she glanced back at the disciples behind her, conveying a clear message – despite his low cultivation base, Liu Shunyi’s status as a Third Rank Alchemist made him someone they should respect and not offend.

The implication was clear.

She wanted to convey to those disciples that despite Liu Shunyi’s low cultivation base, his status as a Third Rank Alchemist made him their superior. If they wished to continue receiving Medicine Pills, they must not offend Liu Shunyi.

As expected, this statement left all the disciples stunned. Their gazes towards Liu Shunyi now held deep respect.

“Uh…” Liu Shunyi had never fully appreciated how esteemed a Third Rank Alchemist could be. This newfound understanding revealed just how limited his knowledge of the cultivation world truly was.

At that moment, Ji Suying whispered softly, “Tell me, what exactly happened?”

Liu Shunyi looked at her with confusion.

Ji Suying glanced towards Elder Qing Teng, who was gradually distancing himself, and asked again, “He didn’t attack you directly, did he? So, were your previous suspicions incorrect?”

Liu Shunyi shook his head. “No, because he teleported me to a terrifying secret realm where I nearly died!”

Instantly, Ji Suying comprehended the situation.

“I see, he must have been quite discreet about it. However, without any evidence, accusations can lead to unwarranted consequences – you should be cautious!”

With that, Ji Suying turned her attention back to Liu Shunyi.

“After reaching Foundation Establishment with the Primordial Bead, what additional abilities did you gain? Also, what makes the Imperishable Primordial Scripture so unique?”

Liu Shunyi was taken aback.

Ji Suying smiled warmly.

“I sensed that you don’t possess the Primordial Bead anymore; hence, I guessed.”
