Chapter 95: Finished, another sister added

What?Liu Qingxian actually intended to accept the bet!She probably didn't know what cultivation level Cao Zhen had, did she?

Liu Wenchen's expression also subtly changed. He whispered, "Qingxian, don't fall for it." How could a mere new disciple dare to flirt with the Sect Master's daughter? It was clearly instigation from the Grand Elder, a move to challenge the Sect Master's Peak.

However, Liu Qingxian was full of confidence in Jiang Fan. She lowered her voice and said, "Father, this is our chance to turn things around. The Grand Elder is proud of this seventh-grade spiritual root. So, we will decisively defeat him in the very area he is most proud of." With that, she looked at Cao Zhen again. "I'm asking you, what happens if you lose?"

Cao Zhen smiled and said, "Senior Sister Liu, you probably don't know me yet." He slowly released his spiritual energy. Its purity greatly astonished the elders present.

"Foundation Establishment Fourth Layer!""As expected of a seventh-grade spiritual root; to have such cultivation at such a young age!""He's completely on par with Liu Qingxian back then!" Even Li Qingfeng showed a hint of envy. "If Xu Youran had the background of the Cao family, I believe she wouldn't be worse than him."

"What a pity."Liu Wenchen was slightly surprised. He felt even more strongly that Liu Qingxian was bringing shame upon herself. Not only were they a whole realm apart, but could Jiang Fan's background compare to the Cao family's? The cultivation technique Cao Zhen practiced was far more advanced than Jiang Fan's.

The outcome of their sparring match in half a month was obvious. Yet, Liu Qingxian showed a playful expression: "Which layer have you reached in the Dragon Ascension Path?"

Cao Zhen, not without a hint of boastfulness, proudly said, "The twelfth layer. Only beneath that peerless prodigy." Upon hearing this, the elders present all showed expressions of astonishment. They had long heard of the peerless prodigy who reached the thirteenth layer. Such a person would undoubtedly become a towering figure in the future. They hadn't expected Cao Zhen to be second only to that individual.

A barely perceptible sneer crossed Liu Qingxian's lips. She said, "That's quite impressive. So, answer my question then: what happens if you lose?"

Cao Zhen frowned. He was getting a little angry. He had already displayed such impressive strength, and Liu Qingxian still thought he would lose? And to a good-for-nothing with no spiritual root at that! He scoffed lightly, "If I lose, I will withdraw from Reincarnation Peak and become a disciple of the Sect Master's Peak."

Liu Wenchen's eyes lit up, but then the light immediately faded. He greatly valued this seventh-grade spiritual root, but unfortunately, Jiang Fan didn't have the ability to win.

Liu Qingxian smiled slightly. "Alright! I look forward to you leaving Reincarnation Peak!"

Jiang Fan looked bewildered. He raised a hand. "Uh, Senior Sister, shouldn't you ask for my opinion first? Whether to bet or not, shouldn't they have consulted him, the person involved? He had inexplicably provoked the Grand Elder's disciple. Wouldn't this cause trouble for him later?"

Liu Qingxian, smiling, came up to him and whispered in his ear, "Did you think Senior Sister's body was for free viewing?"

Jiang Fan's face turned red. He muttered, "I didn't see anything, okay?" The mist in the spiritual pool was so thick, he only saw a vague silhouette.

Liu Qingxian noticed Jiang Fan's face was completely red and couldn't help but blink. "No way, you're actually blushing?"

Jiang Fan couldn't stand her. He moved away and said, "I agree then! And don't ever mention the spiritual pool again."

Liu Qingxian covered her mouth and chuckled, finding Jiang Fan increasingly amusing. It seemed he was still just a simple boy. Unable to resist, she revealed the truth, no longer teasing him: "Having you participate in the sparring match is for your own good! Traditionally, after new disciples pay respects to the Ancestral Master, one outstanding new disciple is chosen. The Azure Cloud Sect grants a reward: entry into the Scripture Pavilion to select a cultivation technique."

What? There's such a benefit? He had always wanted to switch to a higher-grade sword technique but hadn't had the opportunity. Jiang Fan smiled. "Alright! I accept the challenge!"

Cao Zhen watched the two of them so intimately, a flicker of jealous flame dancing in his eyes. He looked down at Jiang Fan from a distance and said, "In half a month, we'll compete. I hope you don't lose too quickly!" He secretly vowed to severely teach Jiang Fan a lesson in front of Liu Qingxian! He wanted Liu Qingxian to witness with her own eyes the person she favored so much being brutally beaten by him like a dead dog!

Soon after, the elders and disciples gradually dispersed. Jiang Fan bid farewell to Xu Youran and Chen Siling and accompanied Liu Wenchen to the Sect Master's Peak. Xu Youran watched Jiang Fan leave, her gaze sweeping over Liu Qingxian's graceful purple figure. She sighed helplessly: "Siling, you're about to have another sister."

Chen Siling didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She had also noticed it and said, "This daughter of the Sect Master does seem very interested in Jiang Fan."

Xu Youran rubbed her temples. "What kind of taste do you two have? Why are you all drawn to Jiang Fan? I truly don't understand what's so great about him." She loved Jiang Fan because of their ten years together and his tender affection for her. But why did Chen Siling suddenly fall for Jiang Fan? And even willingly become a junior wife? Well, let's assume Chen Siling and the Chen family reluctantly agreed due to their desperate situation at the time. But how could the dignified daughter of the Azure Cloud Sect Master also be attracted to Jiang Fan, who already had two wives? This left her completely baffled. In response, Chen Siling could only give a wry smile. In her opinion, it wasn't Liu Qingxian lowering herself at all. Instead, she had unintentionally found a powerful backer.

Sect Master's Peak.Liu Wenchen returned in a displeased mood. "Jiang Fan, since you have become a disciple under my wing, from now on, you must focus solely on martial arts. Cultivate on the peak when you have nothing else to do, try not to go out, and absolutely do not spread remarks detrimental to this peak, understand?"

Jiang Fan was completely bewildered. Even if he wanted to spread unfavorable remarks, he would need to know some gossip first. Having just arrived, where would he hear gossip? Although he found this admonition baffling, he still listened very humbly. "Yes, Master!"

Liu Wenchen was fairly satisfied with his attitude and casually took out some items for him. "These are your resources for this month: one bottle of Low-Grade Foundation Establishment Pills and one hundred spirit stones. This is the key to your cultivation dwelling. Also, starting tomorrow, you will be responsible for collecting honey."

Upon hearing the previous instructions, Liu Qingxian remained calm. But learning that Jiang Fan was to collect honey, Liu Qingxian said discontentedly, "Father! Jiang Fan just arrived, and you're already making him collect honey? Those Wolf Head Bees are very fierce; they sting anyone they see, and the pain is excruciating! He has no experience at all, and you're sending him? This is retaliation!"

Wolf Head Bees? Jiang Fan had read about them in the 'Immortal Medical Codex'; they were a valuable spiritual bee. The honey they produced contained unique spiritual energy and was a rare delicacy that even high-level cultivators seldom had the chance to taste. However, as Liu Qingxian said, collecting honey from Wolf Head Bees was quite dangerous. Without experience, one would be stung all over, crying out in pain. Fortunately, the medical text mentioned a type of medicine that could easily handle Wolf Head Bees.

Liu Wenchen said with a stern face, "Every disciple on this peak has duties, and Jiang Fan is no exception. Not only must he collect honey, but he must also ensure he collects one jin within three days. If it's not enough, he will be punished. Understand? Jiang Fan?"

Liu Qingxian was still prepared to argue for Jiang Fan.

"Senior Sister, I'll be fine," Jiang Fan said. "I guarantee I'll complete Master's orders."

Liu Wenchen nodded. "After you finish collecting, your Senior Disciple Brother will grade your task. Don't end up in last place and become a laughingstock among the other Senior Disciples." Every disciple had their own duties, and upon completion, the head disciple would grade them. This was also a form of competition among the disciples of this peak.

Jiang Fan's eyes flickered slightly. "What if I get a high score?"

Liu Wenchen couldn't help but laugh in exasperation. He just arrived and already wanted to surpass the other Senior Disciples? "If you rank in the top three, you'll get half of the honey you collected."

Half? Jiang Fan was secretly delighted. He said, "Yes, Master!"
