Chen Qingshuang hurriedly returned to the small courtyard where she lived.
She currently lives in the outer courtyard of the Sword Sect, living with thousands of outer disciples.
Fortunately, the small courtyard is relatively quiet, has a large area, and the spiritual energy is pure and rich, so there are no problems in life or practice.
With a hint of exhaustion on her resolute face, she opened a low-level formation to protect the small courtyard, and returned to her familiar environment, immediately feeling a little more relaxed.
During the day just now, she stayed in the cave where an alchemy-forming uncle lived, processing a large amount of talisman-making materials for him.
During this period, I was using my spiritual consciousness all the time, which was very draining on my mind and I felt faintly dizzy.
She looked normal, she had long been used to this situation.
Although the Chen family is not a small family, it has had its glorious moments, but after the birth of the Yuan Ying Ancestor, it has become worse with each passing generation, and now there is only one True Formation Pill Master in the family.
Therefore, placed in a behemoth like Tianjian Sect, it is nothing at all.
Chen Qingshuang knew in her heart that it was not easy for her family. In order for her to rapidly improve her strength in the Dongxuan Sword Sect, the family had devoted all its efforts and spent a lot of resources and treasures on her.
But compared with those real children of aristocratic families, those resources can only be regarded as superficial and of limited use.
She took a deep breath and her eyes became firm again.
Her talent is not as good as those unique geniuses, and her background is not as good as those sword masters, descendants of elders or children of aristocratic families in the Sword Sect, but she believes that as long as she has a persevering heart to seek truth, she will be able to make up for these gaps.
Chen Qingshuang took out a black pill from the storage bag and swallowed it.
The pills had an indescribable weird taste, which made her frown.
After a long while, she activated her spiritual power, and several drops of a fishy, unpleasant-smelling gray-black liquid dripped from her fingertips.
"The poison left by the evil spirits in the body has almost been eliminated."
She cast a purification talisman to remove the few drops of light black liquid.
The last time she went out to explore the secret realm, she accidentally contracted a trace of evil poison. With the help of the sect, she survived, but there was still some poison left in her body, which was extremely difficult to get rid of.
You can only slowly return to normal by taking a detoxifying elixir like the one just mentioned.
"Junior sister Chen, I'm here to visit you."
Just when she was about to practice, a soft voice came from outside the small courtyard.
Before she could get up to greet her, the owner of the voice had already barged in with a familiar face.
A woman with picturesque features and green hair flowing down like a waterfall walked towards her.
"Senior Sister Zhong."
Chen Qingshuang bowed respectfully.
The woman's name is Zhongli, the daughter of a Nascent Soul elder from the Sword Sect. She is about the same age as her, but she has already reached the stage of perfect foundation building and is expected to form a pill.
"Junior sister went to deal with the materials for making talismans again today?"
Zhong Li leaned close to Chen Qingshuang's shoulder, seeming to be sniffing her scent, his eyes as gentle as water.
"Yes."
Chen Qingshuang moved half a step away without leaving any trace.
"I have told you, junior sister, that I want you to move to my cave. The spiritual energy there is purer and richer, the speed of cultivation can be improved a lot, and we can also take care of each other."
Zhongli said with a chuckle.
"Thank you, Senior Sister Zhong, for your kindness. It's just that I'm used to living here, and I'm afraid of causing a lot of inconvenience to Senior Sister."
Chen Qingshuang shook her head.
Even though Zhong Li tried to persuade her again and again, she still stood firm in her inner thoughts.
Zhongli did not stay long, said goodbye to her and left.
Chen Qingshuang watched her leave, her heart as calm as water.
The senior sister in front of me seemed to have some unexplainable strange feelings towards her, and she was usually extremely close to her.
Under this situation, as long as she shows the slightest sign, she is very likely to get a lot of resources from the daughter of the Nascent Soul Lord. However, Chen Qingshuang is unwilling to go against her true thoughts, and just regards the other party's intimacy as a friendship.
"Excuse me, is this where Master Chen Qingshuang lives?"
When she was about to go back to the courtyard, a gentle voice suddenly came to her ears.
Looking around, she saw a young man wearing a navy blue robe looking at her with a smile.
The young man has a handsome face, eyes like paint, extraordinary bearing, and a deep aura. It is Lu Xuan who came here after getting information about the disciples of the Chen family from Mo Yuanfeng.
"Junior Chen Qingshuang, I have met my uncle."
Chen Qingshuang's heart trembled. She didn't know why the alchemy master uncle in front of her came here, so she quickly said hello.
"You don't have to be so polite, Senior Nephew Chen. I'm Lu Xuan. I'm currently staying at Huazhen Jianfeng. I came here this time to see you for something."
Lu Xuan smiled and nodded.
"It turns out to be Senior Uncle Lu. I wonder why Uncle Senior wants to see me?"
Chen Qingshuang invited Lu Xuan into the courtyard and asked curiously.
"By chance, I have some connection with Master Chen Xiaobai's uncle of the Chen family, which has benefited me a lot in my spiritual practice."
"I came here this time to find the descendants of my great-uncle and see if I could repay him a favor, but I got my wish."
Lu Xuan said half-truthfully.
"Grandpa?"
Chen Qingshuang was stunned for a moment, looking dubious.
"That's right, even though we are two or three thousand years apart from my great uncle, we still have some intersections with him."
Lu Xuan smiled and casually asked in advance about the living habits, cultivation experience, etc. of the Chen family's Yuanying True Lord.
These were all obtained from his obsession with the sword, and they could not be adulterated. Naturally, he quickly gained Chen Qingshuang's trust.
She carries the hopes of the Chen family, so she naturally has a deep understanding of the grandpa who is in the Nascent Soul realm. There are some things that even ordinary members of the Chen family cannot know.
And Lu Xuan, a stranger, could clearly say it, and it was natural for him to verify that what he said was true.
"Master Chen's nephew, I accidentally obtained a treasure left by Master Chen Xiaobai's uncle, which helped me a lot in my cultivation path."
"Now I can barely be considered successful in my practice, and I am lucky enough to find you, my nephew, so I will naturally have something to repay."
Lu Xuan said, taking out a few things from the storage bag and sending them to Chen Qingshuang.
"There are three fourth-grade sword talismans here, which can release powerful sword energy in an instant. This may be used to turn the situation around when you go out to explore the secret realm."
"Two fourth-grade dust-cleansing pills can remove evil smells from the body and avoid being invaded and polluted by demons and evil spirits."
"There are also three thunderstorm lotus seeds. After taking them, they have a certain tempering effect on the physical body. At the same time, they have a good auxiliary effect on practicing thunder-type supernatural powers and secret arts."
The three sword talismans were full of sword intent, and there were countless subtle sword energy swimming on the surface. The two dust-cleansing pills were surrounded by clear spiritual energy, and the three silver-white lotus seeds were faintly filled with subtle lightning arcs.
"This... is too expensive."
Chen Qingshuang tried her best to remove her eyes from these treasures, lowered her head and said.
The treasures that Lu Xuan took out were extremely precious to her, so much so that she was embarrassed to accept them.
"It's okay, this is what you deserve, nephew, and it can be regarded as a little care for the descendants of Master Chen's uncle."
