Chapter 107 Not Even Giving a Name With a sigh, Ruan Xing put away the jade token. I don’t know if this late bloomer of the peak master has any special hobbies. I have completed the foundation building at the age of seven and can probably be considered a genius. What is she collecting here? However, we have to deal with the enemy with our own strengths. When we go to Yaoguang Peak later, we can try to simulate it first. But now, she was more curious about the two islands floating above Xianyuan City. I also looked through a few books similar to local customs and local chronicles, but none of them mentioned the island in the sky. Is this some very obscure secret? After thinking for a while, Ruan Xing couldn't figure out anything, so she put the book down angrily and started to realize the final purpose of her visit to the library. When I read online novels in the past, there were always protagonists who discovered hidden information in the travel notes written by some monks, such as ancient caves or ruins, and thus successfully picked up the leak. Although considering her luck, it might just be wishful thinking, but people will not give up unless they try. Ruan Xing rubbed his hands and turned on the simulation. After finding a few seemingly relevant travelogues, she searched for possible ruins based on what was written in them. However, each time she found a place that was completely different from what was written in the book. Is it because time has passed too long and the world has changed? Or is it that the people who wrote the travel notes were just imagining and creating literature? If you don’t work hard to cultivate immortality, you will be sulking when you are old.
Why is this kind of useless book still placed here to corrupt the aspirations of young monks to seek the truth? After two unsuccessful simulations, Ruan Xing gritted her teeth and squeezed the book in her hand hard. With her strength, the book would have been deformed if not shattered. However, perhaps in order to preserve it for a long time, the book had undergone some special treatment and there was no sign of damage. After a while, Ruan Xing let go of his hand in frustration. She walked out of the library. It was brightly lit inside, but outside the moon was dim and the stars were sparse. People were coming and going on the street. For most cultivators, the boundary between day and night was no longer so clear. Anyway, foundation-building cultivators no longer needed to sleep, so what was the difference between day and night? Ruan Xing looked up at the sky. The gray sky was all connected, and there was no sign at all that there were two huge monsters floating in it. She suddenly became curious. Did other monks know about the existence of those two islands? Since the map is free and open to the public, other monks can also see it. Then why has no one else been curious, explored it, and left any information? In the two simulations just now, she chose all memories. In her memories, she almost flipped through all the books in the library, but there was not a single word about Tianxin Island and the Floating Island. It’s so mysterious, it must be something special. Next time when there’s a suitable opportunity, I can ask others about it in the simulation. However, she did not gain nothing from the two simulations just now. At least, when she chose to finish reading the travel notes and leave Xianyuan City, no one stopped her. In the subsequent decades of exploring various places, she rarely encountered any danger. This proves that the master of Yaoguang Peak has no ill will towards her, and is not even petty and has a good temper. She chose to leave Xianyuan City directly after receiving the message from the jade token. Any normal person would think that she looked down on Yaoguang Peak and didn't want to go there, so she chose to leave. The leader of Yaoguang Peak would probably think so too. But how could she, a Yuanying Zhenjun, be looked down upon by a mere Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator? How could she not be angry? When the True Lord gets angry, blood will flow for thousands of miles. Is that too much? But she really didn't react at all. She let Ruan Xing leave and wander around outside for decades without even thinking of teaching her a lesson. Ruan Xing's opinion of this True Lord whom he had never met changed a little. Perhaps the master assigned to her by the sect is really good, and she also has a talented senior brother named Qin Taihe who is wealthy and powerful. If she can establish a good relationship with him, maybe she won't have to bother that backer and can obtain the Jindan stage's skills. I wonder if the senior brother likes a well-behaved and sensible junior sister or a lively and cheerful junior sister? There was less than an hour left and it would be dawn. She couldn't fly a sword in the city, so she used the lightness talisman to rush over. The time should be just right. However, there is always a gap between reality and imagination. After Ruan Xing arrived at Yaoguang Peak, he was quickly received by other senior brothers and sisters. After some understanding, Ruan Xing finally understood what had happened.
Here in Zhongzhou, because of the system of one hundred and eighty peaks, in addition to direct disciples, there is also a title called registered disciples. Qin Taihe is the only direct disciple in the entire Yaoguang Peak, and all other disciples are registered disciples assigned by the sect. Ruan Xing suddenly felt a little disappointed... It turned out that she was just being too sentimental. The Lord of Yaoguang Peak might not even know that there was such a person as her. “Although we are only registered disciples, the resources we get are better than other inner disciples. Since we have enjoyed the benefits of Yaoguang Peak, we must also respect our master and serve him. Our master will also guide us when he has time.” An enthusiastic senior brother said to her seriously. "Yes, I understand. Thank you for your teachings, Senior Brother." Because the master of Yaoguang Peak has only been in office for less than forty years, except for Qin Taihe, most of the other registered disciples are in the late foundation building period, and there are a few in the early foundation building period. In terms of cultivation, Ruan Xing's level is relatively high among them. But since he was a newcomer after all, Ruan Xing was still very humble in front of these registered disciples. Seeing that this senior brother seemed easy to talk to, Ruan Xing then asked a few questions about where to collect his monthly salary and some basic information on Yaoguang Peak. Before she could finish her words, a silver-white figure leaped over her head. The wind it brought ruffled her hair and a cloud of dust was raised when it landed. Fortunately, she has a good temper, otherwise who could tolerate others stepping over her head? She suppressed the urge to take action, turned around and gave the newcomer a lovely smile, "Hello, Senior Brother." Qin Taihe sat on the white wolf and nodded proudly, "Ruan Xing, come with me to see the master." The senior brother who had been lowering his head next to her widened his eyes and looked at her in surprise when he heard her words. His eyes seemed to be saying, 'You are a registered disciple and it's your first day here. How can you deserve the Master to ask to see you?' So she wasn't being sentimental? Ruan Xing was a little amused, and coughed twice in embarrassment, "Okay, Senior Brother." Qin Taihe sat on the white wolf and led the way. Ruan Xing followed behind with his legs tucked. Seeing that there was no one around, Ruan Xing said to Qin Taihe with an admiring expression and sparkling eyes: "Brother, your monster is really majestic and extraordinary. It has the same extraordinary temperament as you. Can I also go up and feel it?" "No." Qintai He shook his head decisively, "Silver Wind only recognizes me, it won't agree to you riding it, just walk slowly, I'm not in a hurry." Is this a question of whether or not to rush? You want Master to wait for us? As expected, those who are favored are fearless. The other registered disciples are all terrified in front of the master. They are so moved that they want to cry when they are instructed and praised by the master. Qin Taihe actually asked the master to wait. It seems Qintai He doesn't buy it. Ruan Xing curled his lips imperceptibly. On the white jade corridor, a woman in green was standing there, looking down at the pool water below which was filled with white mist, as if she was thinking about something. The white wolf bent its front paws forward and lowered its body. Qintaihe jumped down, took two steps forward, folded his hands and saluted, saying, "Master." Ruan Xing quickly followed him and said, "Disciple Ruan Xing greets Master." "You don't have to call me Master, just call me Peak Master." The woman turned her head, her pretty face showing a slightly tired look. She swung her slender fingers slightly, and the bamboo leaves on Ruan Xing's temples flew into her hands. She picked up the bamboo leaf with a calm expression, held it in front of her eyes and looked at it for a moment, then gently shook it, and the bamboo leaf turned into fragments and flew away with the wind. When Ruan Xing saw this scene, how could he not know that the backer that Elder Wen was talking about was this person? I have to say that Yuanying Zhenjun is really amazing. He has never seen her, nor sent anyone to contact her, but he transferred her to his peak in less than half a day. But judging from the attitude of the peak master, their relationship doesn't seem to be that good. Ruan Xing hesitated and said, "But Elder Wen did not accept me as his disciple..."
"It's okay." The woman said calmly, "You are still my registered disciple of Yaoguang Peak." Ruan Xing said helplessly: "Yes, Peak Master." The woman nodded and looked at Qin Taihe. "An old friend asked me to look after her. If anything happens, let her come to you." "Yes, Master." Qin Taihe nodded in agreement. It seemed that she was called over to see her just to give her a few instructions. After she finished speaking, the woman turned her head and looked at the pool again. This meant that he was not going to pay any more attention to them. Qin Taihe skillfully pulled Ruan Xing out. Ruan Xing was a little confused. What exactly did the peak master mean? If Elder Wen had a good relationship with her, why didn't she accept him as her disciple? If their relationship was not good, why did she let Qintai He take care of herself after seeing Zhuye? Is there some unknown love, hate and vengeance involved? Hiss——I heard that old man is quite extravagant despite his age. However, she had read in the biography that the peak master was a late bloomer and broke through to the Nascent Soul stage when the Jindan stage was about to expire, so her actual age should be around five hundred years old, while Old Man Wen is still in the Jindan stage and has not yet exceeded five hundred years old. But this has nothing to do with Ruan Xing. As long as he is sure that the peak master has no ill will towards him and that he can use the peak master's help to improve himself, that will be enough. As for the status of master and disciple, she doesn't care about it. Thinking of this, Ruan Xing couldn't help but speak out, intending to make a few polite remarks to Qin Taihe first, "Brother Qin, you are young and promising and have already reached the Golden Core stage. You should be very famous in the sect, right? I am so lucky to have your care." "Haha, you're too kind. I don't think I'm famous enough." Qin Taihe stopped and smiled at her, "Otherwise, how come Junior Sister doesn't know that my surname is Qin Tai?" Goose... Ruan Xing was stunned for a moment, then laughed awkwardly: "Haha, Senior Brother, I'm still young, I'm uneducated, it's normal." "Qintai is a big family in Xizhou. I come from a Xizhou clan. From now on, don't forget that." The white wolf on the side had bent down again. After Qintai He sat on it, he looked down at Ruan Xing and said. Ruan Xing had an expression of having learned something. "Of course, Senior Brother Qintai taught me, and I will never forget it." Qin Taihe snorted, took Ruan Xing's sect jade token, added her contact information, and returned it to her, "If you have anything to say, come to me. If not, don't bother me." After saying that, he patted the white wolf, jumped up, and disappeared from Ruan Xing's sight in a few seconds. Ruan Xing put away his smile and stroked his sect's jade token. It seems that this senior brother is also very mysterious. Others may not know, but Ruan Xing had been to Xizhou many times in simulation, so she knew that in the current situation where it is difficult to obtain martial arts in the immortal cultivation world and it is not easy to change them, even clans in Xizhou that often intermarry with each other will not practice each other's family's martial arts. Why did Qin Taihe come to Zhongzhou and join the Xuanbing Sect? So, is he practicing the Tongxuan Sutra of the Xuanbing Sect, or his Qintai family's own martial arts? However, she really didn't know the surname Qintai. Every time she went to Xizhou, she chose skills or cultivation, and never chose memories. All the information about Xizhou came from the simplified text display of the simulator. The simulator could not tell her how many large clans there were in Xizhou, and what the surnames of these clans were. Eh? Wait. She had just been interrupted by Qin Taihe and had forgotten what she wanted to ask! The skills for the Jindan period! Forget it, everyone has left, I'll just ask in the simulation. Thanks to the kind-hearted senior brother he met at the beginning, Ruan Xing learned some of the established rules on Yaoguang Peak. No matter where you want to live, just find a place with beautiful scenery and build it yourself without destroying the topography of Yaoguang Peak. For a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage, this is not a difficult task. In the Small Five Elements Technique, the Five Elements of Earth and the Five Elements of Wood can both do it. If you are too lazy to learn these two techniques, you can also just take a sword and find a piece of stone to carve out a cave yourself. It’s just that if the technique is not good it won’t look good. Ruan Xing thought it was quite interesting. She used to love watching wilderness survival programs, and building a house was something that was easy to do.
Half an hour later, a rickety tree house hung on the cliff. It just so happened that her tent and bedding came in handy for the third time. After tidying up everything, she added a ban to the tree house, pasted a talisman to make it more solid, and finally put in a protective array. Ruan Xing looked at it with satisfaction. Why does it look a bit like a bird's nest? Never mind, just treat it as a new experience. I won’t be living here for long anyway! Ruan Xing has a deep understanding of herself. With her physique that will not cause trouble unless it causes trouble, it is very difficult for her to live stably in one place for more than three months. Lying in his own bird's nest, Ruan Xing stretched lazily. Now I can simulate with confidence. Where should I start? Thinking carefully about her interactions with Qin Taihe today, she felt that this man was quite divided. Before meeting the Peak Master, although he looked arrogant, he did not deliberately embarrass her, and his attitude when speaking was also very normal. Although he did not let her ride on his white wolf, he did not urge or dislike Ruan Xing for walking slowly. Instead, he told her not to rush and to walk slowly. After meeting the peak master, his attitude became a little bad, and he was not allowed to annoy him. Was it because she called him by the wrong name? I shouldn't be so stingy...
