Chapter 139: The Thirty-Seventh All-Sect Gathering
"Young man, I take back my initial words."
Bai Xuanling sighed and said, "You are a talent. I believe you have solutions for many things. There is no need to ask me about everything."
Chu Xingchen nodded gently, then with a face that remained innocent, he said:
"Then regarding the pills, should I..."
"...How big of a spiritual field do you want?"
"Not too big. My sect has a back mountain..."
Bai Xuanling narrowed her eyes slightly upon hearing this.
Chu Xingchen looked at the expression opposite him and readily adapted, saying, "Just reclaiming a piece casually from over there is fine."
Bai Xuanling nodded gently.
In truth, she had secretly taken two more of this brat's pills after returning.
Unsurprisingly, every single one was extremely wicked.
solely in terms of pill refining techniques, this brat made no errors.
For this kind of thing, the fear is that an error occurs when there are no errors.
Where should one go to find the error then?
When taking the second pill, Bai Xuanling had specifically waited a while for the medicinal efficacy to kick in to see the situation.
The specific situation was that it was very bad; it was worse than being stabbed a few times by someone.
To be honest, Bai Xuanling felt that being able to refine this kind of thing was what made him truly amazing.
What normal person could refine this kind of pill?
As for asking Chu Xingchen for advice, forget it.
She was afraid of being led astray by him and unable to return. She still had to sell her own pills.
Later... she would tell him to refine a bit more for her to take back and feed a bottle to that retarded thing, the Sect Leader.
Sect Back Mountain.
Bai Xuanling looked calmly at the piece of land in front of her.
Spiritual plants were not large radishes; they could not grow just by digging a pit and burying them.
The most basic spiritual plants were not in this category; those things were indeed similar to planting radishes.
Watering them with sufficient spiritual energy would be about enough.
But spiritual plants of slightly higher quality had to be cultivated with care.
From the most basic soil materials, the spiritual energy content had to have a basic guarantee.
Different spiritual plants also had different attributes. Planting different spiritual plants required setting up different formation rituals according to the attributes of the spiritual plants.
In short, it was skilled work, and one had to have a certain understanding of spiritual plants.
The construction of the rituals this time was not done by Bai Xuanling.
Instead, Chu Xingchen did the work, while Bai Xuanling commanded with a lazy expression.
Although it would be faster for Bai Xuanling to work herself, if she always solved things personally, this brat would definitely come to her for everything.
She had to let this brat do it himself. It was a bit slower, but at least she had to let this brat understand.
She was not working for him.
Chu Xingchen was obeying Bai Xuanling's commands and working hard to arrange the rituals:
"Sister! You know so much."
Bai Xuanling had long been immune to this kind of small flattery; she did not lack people who flattered her.
She said in an indifferent tone: "Just passable. Unlike Little Lingyu, I have traveled all over the world. Although I am young, I indeed know quite a lot."
With a happy face, Chu Xingchen gently placed the Spirit Fire Jade given by Bai Xuanling into the formation eye. The surrounding spiritual energy began to slowly attach with a hint of heat.
No matter what one freeloaded, freeloading was always a good thing.
This thing was also quite expensive.
As expected of a Tribulation Transcending big shot; she was truly generous.
Chu Xingchen hurriedly nodded in agreement: "Indeed, a genius as young and knowledgeable as Sister is truly rare."
"Stop the flattery and work faster," Bai Xuanling grunted coldly. "If not for the sake of Little Lingyu, I wouldn't even look at this small sect of yours."
Chu Xingchen hurriedly nodded.
With Bai Xuanling's all-out support, the medicine field finally officially started.
He especially had to thank Senior Bai for fully supporting them with quite a few spiritual plant seeds.
Once these spiritual plants grew up, taking them to sell would also fetch a considerable price.
It was not that one had to refine pills.
It was truly thanks to the reward from the top ranker, Bai Xuanling.
The care of the spiritual field was temporarily handed over to Ning Qianqian. In the early stage when the seeds had not yet sprouted, no special care was needed.
Watering with spirit stone water would suffice.
Next, Chu Xingchen did not chase after Bai Xuanling to ask about everything.
It was mainly because he was afraid that too much would be as bad as too little.
Therefore, Bai Xuanling could finally enjoy some fun leisurely.
At the same time, she used her gaze to carefully size up this small sect.
The framework was loose, and the structure was unclear.
Rather than calling it a sect, it would be better to call it a home.
The backbone was entirely tied to Chu Xingchen.
If Chu Xingchen were gone one day, this small sect might completely fall apart.
These disciples would probably have to go their separate ways.
Solely in terms of a sect, this was inevitably unqualified.
A sect should not fall apart just because someone was missing.
This sect was still far from being a qualified sect and still had to undergo greater changes.
However... she, Bai Xuanling, did not dislike the current atmosphere.
Secondly, a sect did not necessarily have to be like a sect.
Everyone has their own aspirations. Only after stepping onto the Immortal Path would one understand that nothing is absolute, and nothing is correct.
Different paths can all lead to the final result.
Under the night sky.
Bai Xuanling lay lazily on the rocking chair, her gaze looking towards Chu Xingchen and the others who were holding some bonfire banquet nearby.
It was said that this was the sect's thirty-seventh all-sect gathering.
It sounded quite formal, but in reality, the number of people at the gathering could be counted on two hands.
This sect always used formal language to do things that made one not know whether to laugh or cry.
She could be considered to understand a little about this person, Chu Xingchen.
While being a talent, he indeed also had great charisma.
Otherwise, he could not have gathered these disciples, nor could he have made these disciples willing to stay in this small sect.
Li Yingling, her aptitude would be considered top-tier even in the Central Prefecture. The level of spiritual energy agitation during cultivation did not look like the early stage of the Golden Core Realm at all.
Li Xingtian, according to the returned news, was said to be an Evil Cultivator... but he seemed to value relationships and loyalty quite a bit.
However, compared to Li Xingtian, that cute and lovely Chen Baiqing looked more like an Evil Cultivator.
However, whether evil or not, it ultimately depended on the person.
How many people cultivated orthodox cultivation methods but did things that Evil Cultivators did.
Anyway, what Bai Xuanling cultivated was also an orthodox cultivation method in the eyes of the world.
Yet she did not consider herself a good person either.
For worldly matters, how could right and wrong be explained so clearly?
The remaining two... were just beginners. If one really had to talk about being interesting, that Cui Hao was quite interesting.
His temperament was quite similar to an old friend.
It was just a pity that the old friend died quite miserably.
"Sister, want a cup?"
Hearing the voice, Bai Xuanling looked sideways and saw Chu Xingchen holding a wine cup, looking at her with a face full of smiles.
"I generally drink Immortal Brews. Do you have the nerve to bring mortal wine to me?"
Bai Xuanling chuckled and waved her hand slightly; the wine cup in Chu Xingchen's hand flew into her hand.
With a gentle sip, mortal wine was indeed mortal wine; the difference from Immortal Brews was too great.
"Not bad, it has some flavor." Bai Xuanling sighed. "But if you are here to trouble me shamelessly again, this wine might not necessarily be entering my stomach."
"It is just that seeing Sister, you do not seem to like liveliness."
"I have seen too many lively scenes; now I prefer some peace and quiet."
"I always feel... the lively scenes Sister speaks of are not the same meaning as what I speak of."
"Mn? You are quite clever."
"Since Sister has come, then you are a guest. Wherever one goes, one must follow the principle of the guest following the host's convenience."
Bai Xuanling cast a glance over: "Your meaning?"
"Come on. The thirty-seventh all-sect gathering will not leave out anyone. Otherwise, Xie Lingyu might not necessarily let me off later."
Bai Xuanling drained the cup in one gulp, slowly stood up, and said:
"Do not blame me if I spoil the atmosphere."
"Rest assured, I will definitely blame my eldest disciple."
