Senior sister and junior sister are a couple? I’ll break them up for you!

"Is it because the resources in Zhengdao Peak are not enough for you?"

Yan Ruoqi asked with a frosty face.

Jiang Ming blinked when he heard this and said weakly:

"It's enough, but it's different, Senior Sister! I earned all of this through my own hard work and sweat!"

Upon hearing this, Yan Ruoqi couldn't help but take a deep breath.

What a great effort and sweat.

If you succeed in completing the sect's mission, Yan Ruoqi might even praise you.

But you're begging like a fool at the foot of the mountain, talking to me about hard work and sweat?!

If it were someone else who was so hopeless, Yan Ruoqi would definitely not pay any attention to them.

But... the person in front of me is my junior fellow apprentice.

Plus, he had left a good impression on her during those few days he spent in the mountains.

It can be said that except for the fact that he doesn't like practicing, which gives her a headache, the junior brother is good in every way.

So Yan Ruoqi still patiently persuaded:

"Jiang Ming, you are very talented, otherwise you wouldn't have been chosen to compete for Dao Peak. However, it takes hard work to realize your talent. I hope you can calm down and practice well."

"You can use the resources of Zhengdao Peak freely. If they are not enough, you can tell me. I hope you will not waste your time on... begging, okay?"

Jiang Ming looked at his senior sister with a serious expression and touched his chin.

This was the first time that the senior sister had spoken to her at such length.

And... she doesn't seem as cold as she looks.

Could it be that he is the type who is cold on the outside but warm on the inside?

Senior sister was so sincere in her advice, Jiang Ming would not refuse her.

Anyway, he didn't plan to continue pretending to be a fool. The leeks were almost grown and could be harvested tomorrow.

So, Jiang Ming nodded and responded seriously:

"Senior sister is right. I will definitely practice hard!"

"Huh... I hope so."

Hearing this, Yan Ruoqi breathed a sigh of relief, and her frosty face relaxed a little.

This junior brother has only been in Zhengdao Peak for a short time, so it is normal that he cannot adapt to the pace of Zhengdao Peak.

After all, Zhengdao Peak is the most stressful peak in the entire sect, as it concerns the Dao dispute.

But seeing that Jiang Ming is so sincere, I believe he will change his ways and practice well in the future.

"Thank you for your advice, Senior Sister. Can I treat you to a meal to express my gratitude?"

Jiang Ming took the opportunity to invite him.

Shangfeng rarely communicates with his senior sister for such a long time these days.

It’s just right, you can take this opportunity to get more familiar with it.

After all, senior sister is his biggest backer... According to his plan, if anything happens tomorrow, he will have to rely on senior sister to settle it.

As I said: the world of cultivation is not about fighting and killing, but about human relationships and worldly wisdom!

"I won't eat. I need to walk up the Dao stairs a few times and strive to enter the realm of physical training with muffled thunder as soon as possible, so as not to delay my future cultivation."

Yan Ruoqi shook her head slightly, frowning slightly, looking a little distressed.

For some reason, I clearly felt that I could reach that state, but I couldn't reach it no matter how hard I tried, and I was stuck for a long time.

Maybe I haven't practiced enough.

Yan Ruoqi plans to cancel her one-hour break every day.

Speaking of which, just chatting with this junior brother has already delayed my practice time for more than ten minutes.

Oh! I hope this conversation will make him take his cultivation a little more seriously!

Hearing this, Jiang Ming glanced at Yan Ruoqi and said casually:

"That's because you've been training too hard, Senior Sister. Find some time to relax and everything will fall into place."

"nonsense."

Hearing this, Yan Ruoqi glared at Jiang Ming with her beautiful eyes:

"When it comes to physical training, only perseverance can lead to improvement. How can you slack off? Junior brother, put physical training on your agenda as soon as possible. Don't use this excuse to comfort yourself. Enter the realm of carrying thunder in your body as soon as possible. This is very important for your future practice."

"Ah."

Jiang Ming shrugged and didn't argue.

After all, the road you walk yourself will be the most memorable.

Anyway, with Senior Sister's talent, she will break through sooner or later.

Unless she keeps tensing up...it might be a little slower, but it's no big deal.

At the foot of the Zhengdao Peak there are fragments of the Dao obtained in the battle for the Dao.

The Dao essence it exudes will guide the disciples who practice it onto the right path in the dark.

This is also the reason why the battle for the Tao is taken seriously by all sects.

But I can provide a little help to Senior Sister later, and continue to build a good relationship with her...

Jiang Ming suddenly had a plan in mind.

However, Yan Ruoqi no longer wanted to waste so much time on this junior brother, otherwise he would not be able to complete today's training plan.

So she said hurriedly:

"Junior brother, I hope you won't waste your talent."

After saying this, she said no more and walked up the stairs. While it was still early, she could walk a few more times.

"Goodbye, senior sister."

Jiang Ming waved and said goodbye to his senior sister.

Seeing Yan Ruoqi's slim figure getting farther and farther away, Jiang Ming stood up and stretched.

The sky was already dark. He turned his head to look at the endless steps leading to the Dao. It seemed as if he had passed through all obstacles and saw a beautiful figure who was still practicing hard.

"What a diligent genius! You're either cultivating or on the path to cultivation. What could possibly have you so anxious? A battle for the Dao?"

Jiang Ming smiled and did not go up the stairs. Instead, he went around the stairs and came to the back of Zhengdao Peak.

There is a vertical ladder here that looks very simple. Except for the senior sister, no one else knows that the dignified disciples of Zhengdao Peak built a vertical ladder here just to be lazy.

Even the senior sister who knew the truth thought he was not doing his job properly and never took the bus.

If she had been here before, if she had some knowledge of formations, she would have discovered that there were nearly a hundred formations carved in this small vertical ladder... Although none of them were high-level formations, there were quite a few extremely difficult low-level formations.

Not to mention, all of it is squeezed into such a small vertical ladder.

……

"Hey, Senior Sister, are you coming up? Let's eat something together?"

Yan Ruoqi, who had just climbed the stairs, paused in her slightly rapid breathing when she heard this.

There is no need to guess, you know that this junior brother must have taken a shortcut and climbed up using the vertical ladder.

Looking at Jiang Ming who was stewing something in an iron pot in front of the house, Yan Ruoqi was a little disappointed.

She hadn't thought her words would completely turn this junior fellow back to the right path, but even if they were of some use...

"No need... I'll just take two fasting pills."

"But I saw some records in some books that eating some spiritual birds to supplement nutrition after physical training will have a better effect."

"and……"

Jiang Ming said mysteriously:

"I learned this method from a notebook of a great body cultivator. Senior Sister, are you sure you don't want to try it?"

"No."

Senior sister shook her head.

Her time for cultivation was very tight, and she had just wasted so much time persuading her junior fellow apprentice.

As for what Junior Brother was talking about, the Great Body Refining Power...

As soon as I heard it, I knew it was written by my junior.

Even if it was a note from a great body refiner, it would not be something that her junior brother, who was at the Qi Refining stage, could produce if he wanted to have any effect on her at the Golden Core stage.

But Jiang Ming was determined to treat his senior sister to a meal:

"Senior Sister! How about this? I'll make a bet with you. If this meal of mine doesn't work for you, I'll start practicing diligently with you from now on, climbing the Dao steps with you every morning!"

Hearing this, Yan Ruoqi raised her eyebrows.

The junior brother's confident look aroused her curiosity.

And...if my junior brother can really keep his promise, no matter whether it works or not, it seems like I won't lose anything anyway.

If it is useful, then that’s good, it will help her practice.

Even if it is useless, I can help my junior brother turn back.

She still has a few dozen minutes of rest time today, so she can use it to have a meal.

Then Yan Ruoqi nodded slightly:

"it is good."

……

"Hey hey, chicken soup is here!"

Jiang Ming filled a bowl of hot soup with a large chicken drumstick in it and placed it in front of his senior sister.

Yan Ruoqi picked up the bowl, opened her little mouth slightly, and was about to take a sip.

Although it was just out of the pot, for Yan Ruoqi, this temperature was naturally nothing.

She was in a hurry.

But he was stopped by Jiang Ming:

"Hey, Senior Sister, don't drink it yet. Don't be so anxious! There are some rules to follow when drinking my soup."

Hearing this, Yan Ruoqi paused while holding the bowl.

"???"

Is there something particular about drinking soup?!

Jiang Ming coughed twice and started to talk nonsense:

"Ahem, it's like this, Senior Sister."

"This soup of mine needs to be drunk by a person who has put aside all distractions and is physically relaxed in order to benefit from it."

Yan Ruoqi frowned:

"Really?"

She has cultivated to the Golden Core Stage and has seen a lot of things.

This is the first time I heard that one should be calm while eating.

"Yes, yes, since you are here, please listen to me."

Although he was anxious to practice, since his junior brother had said so, Yan Ruoqi had no choice but to do as he was told.

But she was still vaguely thinking about finishing her meal quickly so that she could practice, and she felt a little impatient.

Jiang Ming also noticed it and guided him aloud:

"Sister, take a deep breath. Come on, inhale~exhale~inhale~exhale~"

Jiang Ming's voice was very slow, and seemed to carry an inexplicable magic that made Yan Ruoqi involuntarily follow his rhythm and breathe.

"Okay, now take a small sip of soup, not too much."

Yan Ruoqi felt a little helpless. Why did she always feel that her junior brother was just playing?

But she still took a small sip obediently.

A rich fragrance burst out from her little mouth, causing Yan Ruoqi's beautiful eyes to widen slightly.

Rich but not greasy, fragrant but not overpowering.

Yan Ruoqi looked at the bowl in her hand in surprise. She really didn't expect that this ordinary-looking bowl of chicken soup could taste so good!

Seeing this, Jiang Ming smiled slightly and took the opportunity to coax him:

"Alright, Senior Sister, with delicious food in front of you, you need to relax and immerse yourself in this bowl of soup so that its effects can be fully realized."
