Chapter 1: Who is whose scenery!

  Ye Xuan was completely unmoved and asked faintly, "In our Hundred Flowers Pond, how many excellent female disciples currently have the hope of breaking through to the Solid Yuan Realm?"

  Yan Changlao didn't know what Ye Xuantong was getting at, but he still spoke the truth: "There are about three who have a great hope of breaking through to the Solid Origin Realm. There are roughly eleven or twelve who have some hope of breaking through to the Solid Origin Realm. However, I have too little Black Lotus Pond Ink Dan, and those few thousand blocks of Ink Dan are not something I dare use lightly!"

  Breaking through to the solid yuan boundary, where is it so easy?

  Although among the female disciples of our own Hundred Flowers Pond, three have great hopes to break through to the Yuanyuan Realm, but this great hope is also difficult to guarantee a stable entry into the Yuanyuan Realm. Moreover, the ink dan of Hundred Flowers Pond is scarce and cannot be given as external assistance. If one person among the three can successfully break through, it would already be a lucky event.

  "Three people?"

  Ye Xuan's eyebrows rose slightly, he knew this number was already quite good.

  "Which three disciples?" Ye Xuan asked.

  Yan Changlao turned around and looked at the group of female cultivators behind him, saying: "Mo Shui, Qing Yan, Yuan Ling!"

  The three people she called out were naturally the three female cultivators in the Hundred Flowers Pond who had the most hope of breaking through to the Solid Yuan Realm.

  The next moment, three red-robed female disciples walked out of the crowd.

  "Nice to meet you, Master Chi!"

  These three young ladies were all elegant and beautiful, with cultivation that had reached the highest level of flying sky rank. At this moment, they walked out from the crowd, each giving Ye Xuan a respectful bow.

  "I'll give you five hundred ink dan as an aid to help you break through to the Solid Origin Realm!" Ye Xuan's eyes turned towards the three female cultivators.

  "What?!"

  "Five hundred!"

  The three female monks stiffened their bodies.

  Five hundred

  What?

  This is a sky-high price for them, an absolutely impossible price that can't appear in front of their eyes. When they heard about the five hundred ink dan, they still had some doubts!

  Why are they reluctant to break through? Because external assistance is insufficient, and they dare not try easily.

  "Master Chi, are you telling the truth?" Mo Shui asked with some disbelief.

  Ye Xuan smiled and said, "Would I deceive you?"

  "Many... thank you, Master Chi!" Ink joy flashed across her face, a smile appeared on her pretty face, and she quickly bowed her head in thanks.

  "Master of the Pond...!"

  At this moment, Yan Changlao bowed and said: "Master Chi, this matter is not trivial, it must be carefully considered. Mo Shui, Qingyan, and Yuanling are the three people who have a great hope of breaking through to the solid yuan boundary, but it's not stable yet. Using 500 ink dan as an auxiliary is actually a bit excessive. The ink dan in my Hundred Flowers Pool library is not abundant, so every time I use it, I must be careful and cautious!

  Five hundred grains.

  Three people, 1,500 grains, how can they be taken out so casually?

  Mo Shui and the other two heard this, and their expressions couldn't help but reveal some disappointment.

  They also thought, where is such a good thing.

  Five hundred, how could they possibly take out the Hundred Flowers Pond so easily? If it were that easy to take out, they would have tried to break through long ago.

  "Are you thinking long-term?" Ye Xuan said: "Some things can be considered from a long-term perspective, while others cannot. Moreover, when did I ever say that we would use the ink dan from the Hundred Flowers Pond?"

  Yexuan also burst out laughing at this.

  He didn't say to use the ink from the Baihua Pond Library.

  "This... doesn't use the ink dan from the Baihua Pond storage, which one's ink dan is it?"

  Several elders were stunned.

  Ye Xuan smiled and said with a laugh: "Don't worry, elders!"

  "Xiao Chui!"

  "Xiao Chui is here!"

  Xiao Xiao stood beside Ye Xuan, as his assistant, she naturally had to stand by his side at all times. At this moment, hearing Ye Xuan's shout, she smiled and responded.

  "I'll take out 3,000 of these 10,000 Ink Dan, to help the three of you try and break through to the Solid Origin Realm. Apart from this, if any female disciple has hopes of breaking through to the Solid Origin Realm in the future, I'll also give them an Ink Dan to aid them. This matter is handed over to you, here are 3,000 Ink Dan!" As Ye Xuan spoke, he patted his storage bag and took out 1,500 Ink Dan that he had prepared beforehand, handing them all over to Xiao Chui.

  Having said this, he stood with his hands behind his back and walked away from the General's Mansion step by step.

  Only those female disciples and elders who were left standing there with their eyes wide open, looking at each other in dismay, still echoing Ye Xuan's words in their ears.

  "A... ten thousand ink dan?"

  ……

  Ye Xuan knew that cultivating a solid foundation was no easy task. Ten thousand ink dan were neither too many nor too few!

  He took out three thousand ink dan, enough to cultivate two female disciples in the early stages of Guyuan. He was already content with that. After all, not every disciple is exceptionally gifted; otherwise, wouldn't there be Guyuan-stage cultivators everywhere?

  Obviously not.

  He was so anxious to cultivate the disciples of Baifengchi for some other reasons.

  He had a bad premonition.

  Ever since his name appeared on the Emperor Jade List, this bad premonition was born imperceptibly.

  He is worried about one thing.

  Worried that the Emperor Jade List would be seen by Qing Yin Sect, once the Emperor Jade List was discovered by Qing Yin Sect, Qing Yin Sect would definitely see everything about himself on the Emperor Jade List.

  No matter whether he is the master of the Hundred Flowers Pond or where he is now, and his own achievements will be known to Qing Yin Zong.

  Lu Yin was probably already aware that he had learned the Lu Yin Sword Technique.

  Jiang Yin's creation of the High Ming Sword Intent is enough to drive Qing Yin Sect mad.

  Lu Yingzong's strength made him very worried.

  If Qing Yin Sect is worried about fighting against Bai Hua Chi and other sects taking advantage of the situation, then it's understandable. But if in Qing Yin Sect's eyes, their swordsmanship is worth taking this risk, then Bai Hua Chi has fallen into a dangerous situation.

  It's worth noting that although Qing Yin Sect isn't considered a major sect, it also has masters of the Qi Hai realm holding down the fort.

  How can one not worry?

  Ye Xuan walked out of the General's Mansion and stood in his own courtyard with his hands behind his back, gazing into the distance.

  "I hope, Qing Yin Zong didn't discover me at the Hundred Flowers Pond!" Ye Xuan sighed, he had originally used Yun Jing Zong as a stepping stone, but hadn't expected that this move would actually get him listed on the Emperor Jade Board.

  Plan

  After all, it's impossible to keep up with change.

  "Master of the Pond!"

  Just then, Xiao Xiao arrived at Ye Xuan's courtyard.

  "Has it been instructed?" Ye Xuan looked at Xiao Qiu and smiled.

  "I've already given the 1,500 Ink Dan to the Three Ink Sages! I just don't know if they can successfully break through. If even one of them can break through smoothly, that would be great." Xiao Qi's eyes curved into a smile, like a crescent moon.

  Ye Xuan nodded and immediately furrowed his brow, saying: "Since the matter has been instructed, I will also go into seclusion!"

  "Is Master Qi's junior brother going to make a breakthrough in the middle of the Foundational Stage?" asked Xiao Chui, her beautiful eyes blinking.

  "Right!" Ye Xuan said: "I have now reached the early stage, although it is not enough to break through the solid yuan middle stage, but with this fluorescent pill in hand, I also have a lot of confidence to enter the solid yuan middle stage!"

  "I'll just mention it to Mo Shui and the others, and have them delay their trip to Bai Hua Lake for a few more days!" Xiao Chui was considerate of others, as soon as he heard Ye Xuan was going into seclusion, he thought of Mo Shui and the other three.

  "Good!"

  Ye Xuan glanced at Xiao Qiu.

  Xiao Xiao is a virtuous and elegant woman, considerate and meticulous. When you are tired, with her by your side, you will feel that someone has silently taken on many burdens for you.

  When he came to, he always saw Xiao Lian's shadow.

  Also heard those words of concern, and the wind fruit porridge delivered in front of one's eyes.

  His grandfather once said that in this world, if there is a person who is usually very quiet and doesn't often say much. But when you need it, she will stand in front of you in time, when you may encounter danger, she will worry, and when you are hurt, she will feel heartache.

  That kind of woman is a woman worth cherishing for a man.

  And obviously——

  Xiao Xiao is this kind of woman!

  ……

  Half a day later, on the Hundred Flowers Lake, a man's figure fell into the Hundred Flowers Lake.

  It's Ye Xuan.

  At this time, it was already dusk, Ye Xuan took a deep breath and rushed into the Hundred Flowers Lake, diving to the bottom of the lake.

  "Water you waiting for!"

  He took out the water-avoiding bead and Ye Xuan opened up the formation that led into the spiritual vein.

  Rumble.

  The great array opened, and a waterway was born. Ye Xuan followed the waterway and entered the deepest part of the spiritual vein.

  He didn't stop until he reached the deepest part of the spiritual vein, where Ye Xuan finally came to a halt.

  "Senior, let me go in!" Ye Xuan shouted.

  As soon as the words fell, a powerful pulling force was born, as if a pair of devilish hands grasped Ye Xuan. At the same time, on the wall, a swirling vortex emerged, and Ye Xuan's body suddenly crashed into this vortex. In an instant, he disappeared into the spiritual vein.
