Xie Jiuniang took the three of them around Zhengyang Peak.
Then let them pick a place to build a small courtyard and live in the inner gate.
The spiritual energy of the inner sect is indeed richer than that of the outer sect. At the same time, Xie Jiuniang stated that she would take 30% of the annual harvest as reward.
Among them, Qiao Shiyun came over and said that she wanted to apologize for her sister, and also gave this year's harvest to Xie Jiuniang.
Xie Jiuniang checked the contents of the storage bag and found that they were all spiritual fruits and spiritual plants.
Judging from the quantity, it is indeed about half of the harvest.
Qiao Shiyun didn't withhold the other part, thinking it was an apology for her sister's previous offense.
Xie Jiuniang accepted it with a smile, and then sent a transmission message to tell Chao Yan about the matter.
Chao Yan asked her to hold it by herself, saying that from now on, all the harvest from Zhengyang Peak would belong to her.
Next, Chao Yan informed her, "Disciple, I am planning to retreat as a master. If everything goes well, I will come out in three to five years. If you don't understand anything about cultivation, please ask your uncle Chaoruo. I have already said hello..."
The Yuanying monks will be in seclusion for at least a few years.
Xie Jiuniang didn't tell him that in fact, she also planned to retreat.
Last time I bought a batch of spiritual jade in Fangshi, which can be used to make jade talismans.
At this time, Xie Jiuniang returned to her cave and checked her parents' letters.
The content is basically to report that she is safe and ask her to take good care of herself.
A few days passed, during which Bai Mudan came to look for her once.
It was Lao He who brought Bai Ruiting the news that he agreed to her terms of repayment.
Xie Jiuniang immediately wrote a letter and put it together with a bottle of top-quality spiritual liquid into a wooden box, asking Bai Mudan to deliver it to Bai Ruiting and then to Lao He.
This time, Xie Jiuniang really went into seclusion.
…
Time flies by like a fleeting moment.
It has been four years in the blink of an eye.
Zhengyang Peak is lush, vibrant and well-kept.
It is the harvest season again, and the Lingguo Garden is full of fruits. There is almost no deserted place. Everything that can be grown is planted. All kinds of flowers and plants are planted in ordinary places, and Lingmi is also raised.
There are several disciples working very diligently.
Chaoyan's cultivation reached a higher level and reached the Nascent Soul Great Perfection.
The first thing I did when I came out of seclusion was to scan the entire Zhengyang Peak with my spiritual consciousness.
When I saw Zhengyang Peak, which was obviously different from four years ago, I was quite surprised.
The young apprentice has taken good care of Zhengyang Peak.
But soon, he was slapped in the face...
The reason was that there was no sign of the disciple, but the disciple's cave was closed, and a sign saying "retreat" was hung outside. I called a disciple to ask, and then I learned that the disciple had been in retreat for four years.
Chao Yan, "..."
Is this his front foot retreating, and her back foot following?
Looking at Xie Xu again, Chao Yan asked: "Are you from the Yuanxi family?"
"Yes, inner disciple Xie Xu is here to meet True Lord Chaoyan." Xie Xu had built the foundation three years ago and chose to go to the formation peak, but he still took care of Zhengyang Peak for Xie Jiuniang.
At the same time, several descendants of the Xie family also came, all of whom had already established foundations.
Several people chose to come to the main peak and came to help take care of Zhengyang Peak.
Chao Yan knew that they were disciples, so he was not surprised. He just nodded and left, thinking of going to the main peak to look for the sect master brother first, and then to pay a visit to his master Qian Sha.
Unexpectedly, when I went to the main peak, I not only saw Chaoruo, but also Qian Sha.
Chao Yan stepped forward and saluted, "Disciple pays homage to the master."
"Is it improved? Not bad." Qian Sha praised.
Chaoruo looked at Chao Yan for a few times, "Refined the Pure World Lotus?... Has the hidden danger been solved?"
"Thanks to my disciple this time."
Chao Yan answered with a smile, indicating that he recognized it.
Under the gazes of his master and senior brother, Chao Yan had a slight thought.
The shadow of a colorful Suzaku appeared, hovering proudly over Chao Yan. Its feathers were like fire and clouds, and the flames all over its body were shining and dazzling. Its eyes looked indifferently at the strongest Qian Sha on the first seat, with a faint pressure of the divine beast.
overflow.
Qian Sha laughed silently, "Little guy, only your soul is left, how dare you protest against me?"
"Master, haha, no, no."
Chao Yan quickly colluded with Suzaku, saying that everyone here is his own, "Little Suzaku, let my master check if there are any hidden dangers on you."
Suzaku tilted his head, looked at Qian Sha, and nodded after a moment.
Qian Sha used his Eye of Deception and carefully examined Suzaku's soul. "The demonic energy has disappeared and there is no problem."
"Thanks to the Pure World Lotus. Hey, I didn't think about the Pure World Lotus at first. I couldn't stand my disciple's filial piety, so I insisted on being filial to my master..." Chao Yan talked about his daily life in a casual tone.
This boastful tone was due to Qian Sha and Chao Ruo's good self-control.
Seeing that Chao Yan still wanted to show off, Qian Sha raised his hand and waved, and Chao Yan quickly blocked the blow.
Suzaku stopped playing with them and slipped back into Chao Yan's sea of consciousness.
When Chao Yan was young, he was also a famous figure. He majored in fire-based exercises. Later, he remained silent for hundreds of years and could not improve his cultivation. The main reason for this was that he contracted the soul of a sacred beast, the Suzaku.
I originally thought it was a great opportunity, but after the contract was successful, I realized that there was a pitfall in the great opportunity.
Suzaku's soul was contaminated with demonic energy, causing Chao Yan to almost become possessed, but Qian Sha took action in time to seal Suzaku.
Over the past few hundred years, Chao Yan has been consolidating the seal and helping Suzaku resist the evil energy, consuming countless resources.
No, just after the demonic energy was removed, Chao Yan did not need to practice any more, and his cultivation level jumped to Nascent Soul Dzogchen.
Qian Sha explained a few words and then left.
The two senior brothers were left behind, chatting and talking about Xie Jiuniang.
Chaoruo said: "I haven't seen your apprentice in the past few years. I heard that he is in seclusion."
"She is indeed in seclusion. She is just too diligent. She used to be in seclusion every day at the outer gate..." Chao Yan started to show off again as he spoke.
Hearing this, Chaoruo looked expressionless and wanted to drive people away, "Okay, okay, the Luyuan Secret Realm of the Northern Sword Sect is about to be opened. Do you want a spot?"
"I have an apprentice, of course I want one." Chao Yan didn't even think about speaking.
Chaoruo asked: "Didn't your apprentice retreat? He opened it in less than half a year."
"We have to find her out even though we are in seclusion. Luyuan Secret Realm only comes once every fifty years, so we can't miss it just because we are in seclusion."
The secret realm is equivalent to a place of opportunity. If you miss it once, you may miss the opportunity.
Luyuan Secret Realm is the same as Tianshui Secret Realm. They are secret realms controlled by large sects. Only monks with foundation establishment and below can enter.
The quota of Tianxu Sect was replaced with that of Jian Sect. The quota is very limited, only 500.
One quota can be obtained under the name of the transformed god, and the remaining quotas can only be selected from the combat power list. The allocation rules are the same as the quotas in the Skyfire Secret Realm.
Chao Yan didn't want Xie Jiuniang to miss it.
Otherwise, by the time the Luyuan Secret Realm is opened next time, Xie Jiuniang's talent may have already formed a pill.
