Zeng Jing got up and planned to boil water for his Senior Sister and the Sect Master and to make breakfast early in the morning.

He hadn’t forgotten that all these were his job. He treated the chores as the right and proper way to pay tuition while learning kung fu from them.

However, as soon as he went out, he realized that Bai Yan had already woken up and was drawing water from the well in the courtyard.

Zeng Jing looked around the courtyard and realized that the ground had already been swept. “Eh? Senior Sister, why did you get up so early to snatch my work?”

Bai Yan smiled and said, “Yesterday, you successfully reached the Foundation Establishment realm and entered the Qi Refinement realm. Then, you’re no longer an outer sect disciple but an inner sect disciple. Inner sect disciples don’t have to work. They just need to cultivate desperately. Therefore, I’ll do the work for you.”

“Eh?” Zeng Jing said, “Isn’t Senior Sister also an inner sect disciple?”

“I…” Bai Yan shook her head self-deprecatingly. “My aptitude is poor, and it’s impossible for me to step into the Immortal Dao in this life. Cultivating is useless. It’s better for me to help Junior Brother save some time to cultivate and achieve the Great Dao? Wouldn’t that be wonderful? ”

Zeng Jing felt a little sorry for her after listening to what she said. This beautiful senior sister was really too kind and selfless. If it were someone else who was more selfish, it wouldn’t matter if he could obtain the Great Dao or not, that person won’t do anything that he or she shouldn’t do. Who cares if there’s a flood outside? Don’t come and disturb me.

Zeng Jing walked forward and snatched the bucket from Bai Yan’s hand. “Senior Sister, let me do this. I don’t think doing some housework will affect my cultivation. I’m the last disciple to enter the sect. There’s nothing wrong with me doing these things.”

Bai Yan’s beautiful eyes locked onto his face with gentleness. “Junior Brother, you’re really a considerate person.”

Zeng Jing fetched water, boiled it, and began to make breakfast.

Bai Yan followed closely behind and asked, “How was your cultivation last night?”

Zeng Jing smiled. “Look!” He waved his palm forward. Sparks flew in the air with a whoosh.

Fiery Palm!” Bai Yan praised, “Not bad. Junior Brother’s cultivation speed is quite fast.”

Zeng Jing chuckled. “So-so. Third in the world.”

“Tsk!” The voice of the Loli Sect Master suddenly sounded in the distance. “What a slow advancement. Only someone as gentle as Senior Sister Bai would praise you for this speed. If the Master was still alive, he would definitely scold you until you bleed. The Blazing Sun Flame Refinement Art is famous for its quick success. The earlier you cultivate, the faster your advancement. It’s very suitable for beginners to learn. After an entire night of cultivation, you can’t even create a full flame when you strike. How dare you claim to be the third in the world?”

Zeng Jing did not reply to that.

This was very awkward. “Senior Sister, don’t praise me for nothing. Be honest, am I really very slow?” He asked Bai Yan in a low voice.

Bai Yan was caught between laughter and tears. She replied in a low voice, “I’m not lying to you. You’re advancing quite fast, really! Much faster than me.”

Zeng Jing did not reply to that.

Is it really good to use you as a reference? Didn’t you claim that your aptitude is poor and you won’t be able to glimpse into the Immortal Dao in this lifetime? You’re already giving up on yourself! What’s the use of my cultivation speed being faster than yours? Wouldn’t I become similar to the Sect Master of the Handsome Sect?

There was no joy in that.

Bai Yan said, “Junior Brother, don’t be depressed. I’ll set up a Spirit Gathering Formation for you later. You should be able to improve quickly if you cultivate in the formation.”

Bai Yan had told him about the Spirit Gathering Formation. At most, a pile of Dharma treasures that could gather spiritual energy would form an array formation. Cultivators could cultivate in the center and achieve twice the results with half the effort.

This was the benefit of being a disciple of a large sect. Itinerant cultivators did not receive such treatment.

Zeng Jing couldn’t help but ask, “Senior Sister, why don’t you set up a Spirit Gathering Formation to help you cultivate? Perhaps it can also increase your cultivation speed and help you attain the Heavenly Dao.”

Bai Yan smiled bitterly and shook his head. “Heavenly treasures and spirit gathering artifacts are rare. Limited resources have to be used on those who need them the most. It’s useless for people like me. Even if I have the Spirit Gathering Formation, I won’t be able to achieve anything.”

Zeng Jing did not reply to that.

After the two of them finished their chores together, Bai Yan led him to the back of the mountain. They found a dense forest and used the Sword Control Techniques to cut down a few trees and clear a clearing. Then, he shaved the fallen tree trunks into wooden sticks and made a row of square shelving.

He arranged these shelves in the direction of the Nine Palaces, Eight Trigrams and Five Elements and placed a meditation cushion in the middle.

Zeng Jing understood at a glance. “It’s a wood-attribute Spirit Gathering Formation. Wood produces fire. It’s very effective if I were to cultivate within it.”

“That’s right!” Bai Yan said, “The problem now is that these shelves need some Dharma artifact that can gather spiritual energy or heavenly treasures, and they have to be wood-attribute.”

She flew towards the medicinal garden on her sword and returned after a while. She was holding a ginseng in her hand and placed it on a shelf. They had found the ginseng on the way when they went to look for the Mind-Clearing Grass last time. At that time, the valley was filled with the water-attribute spiritual energy of the Mystic Ice Bear Demon. Water produces wood, so all the herbs in the valley grew healthily. This ginseng even grew into a spiritual herb with dense wood-attribute spiritual energy.

Bai Yan said a little awkwardly, “We only have this one heavenly treasure that can be used to gather spiritual energy. It’s far from enough.”

Zeng Jing said, “Then what should we do? Go out and dig for more medicine again?”

Bai Yan shook her head and sighed. “A ginseng that has turned into a spiritual herb and has the effect of gathering spiritual energy isn’t something that can be dug up just because you want them. The best way to get it is to buy it or borrow it from another sect. The Wolong Manor has always been close to our Sword Sect. Let’s go to the Wolong Manor. Coincidentally, we also need to set up a water-attribute Spirit Gathering Formation for our junior sister to cultivate her wood-attribute cultivation technique faster.”

Zeng Jing frowned slightly when he heard this. A bad feeling rose in his heart. ‘Kind Senior Sister, I’m afraid you don’t know much about human relationships, do you? A close sect in the past doesn’t mean that they will be close under such circumstances.’

The world is your friend when you are in the limelight. How many would be left when you are in trouble? Zeng Jing thought to himself without voicing it out.

Perhaps he had been too petty for his own good? Perhaps the people of Wolong Manor were not so snobbish?

Anyway, don’t ever expect too much of others but don’t think too badly of the whole world. You won’t know until it happens.

There were only three people left in the Shu Mountain Immortal Sword Sect now. Therefore, once something happened, the three of them had to act together. Otherwise, it would not be safe for anyone to be alone.

Two hours later, Bai Yan and the Loli Sect Master, flew on their flying swords again. Zeng Jing rode on one of Bai Yan’s flying swords just like what. The three of them turned into three sword lights and flew towards the Wolong Manor.

Zeng Jing looked at the long water-attribute spiritual energy tail of the flying sword under her feet. It was silver-white and very beautiful. She was extremely envious. “Senior Sister, when are you going to teach me the Sword Control Technique?”

Bai Yan said, “At the very least, you have to wait until your Fiery Palm can produce a long stream of flames. Otherwise, how can you fly when you can’t even drag the tail of the Sword Control Technique?”

“Well… that’s true…”
