My Xiuxian painting style is not right

Chen Yu walked briskly down the mountain. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on his body, giving him a golden edge.

The mountain breeze brought bursts of floral fragrance, making him feel even happier.

Joining the Deacon Hall and meeting Lin Qingxue made him full of expectations for the future.

He hummed a little tune as he walked back to his cabin.

Pushing open the wooden door of the wooden house, Chen Yu walked in. The wooden house was not big, with only a bed, a table, and a shabby wooden cabinet.

He put the rag bag on the table and sat down on the bed.

"System, where is my reward?" Chen Yu asked impatiently in his heart.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the mission. The reward is a Marrow Cleansing Pill, which has been sent to the system backpack."

The system's voice sounded in his mind.

Chen Yu immediately opened the system backpack and saw a white pill lying quietly inside.

The pill exudes a faint fragrance, and it is obvious that it is not an ordinary item.

"What's the use of this marrow cleansing pill?" Chen Yu asked.

"The Marrow Cleansing Pill can remove impurities from the host's body and improve their cultivation aptitude."

The system explained.

"Oh, that sounds good." Chen Yu picked up the marrow cleansing pill and swallowed it in one gulp.

The pill melted in his mouth, transforming into a warm current that flowed through his body. Chen Yu felt warm all over, indescribably comfortable.

After a while, Chen Yu felt something being discharged from his body. It was sticky and emitted an unpleasant smell.

"What is this?" Chen Yu wrinkled his nose in disgust.

"These are impurities discharged from the host's body." The system explained.

Chen Yu hurried outside, fetched a bucket of water, and washed himself from head to toe.

After washing, Chen Yu felt refreshed and full of strength.

"This marrow cleansing pill is really effective!" Chen Yu said excitedly.

He returned to the cabin, sat cross-legged on the bed, and began to practice.

With the help of the Marrow Cleansing Pill, Chen Yu's cultivation speed was significantly accelerated.

He felt the true energy in his body becoming more and more abundant, and soon broke through to the fourth level of Qi Refining.

"Haha! I've reached the fourth level of Qi Refining!" Chen Yu jumped up excitedly.

He walked out of the cabin and prepared to report to the Deacon's Hall.

Just a few steps out of the wooden house, he saw a hot woman walking towards him.

The woman had long, wavy red hair and a fiery passion. She wore a tight red dress that perfectly showcased her curvaceous figure.

She held a red folding fan in her hand and waved it gently, adding a touch of charm to her appearance.

"Junior brother, you must be Chen Yu, right?" The woman walked up to Chen Yu and asked with a smile.

Chen Yu was stunned for a moment. He didn't know this woman.

"Who are you?" Chen Yu asked doubtfully.

"My name is Liu Ruyan, and I'm an outer disciple," the woman introduced herself. "I've heard of you a long time ago. The entrance exam, blindingly bright, is referring to you, right?"

Chen Yu smiled awkwardly, not expecting that his "deeds" had spread.

"What do you want to talk to me about?" Chen Yu asked.

"Can't I come to you if there's nothing wrong?" Liu Ruyan blinked, with a hint of teasing in her tone.

Chen Yu felt a little uncomfortable. It was the first time he was looked at like this by a woman.

"Well... I have something else to do, so I'll leave first." After saying that, Chen Yu turned around and left.

"Hey, don't go!" Liu Ruyan quickly caught up and stood in front of Chen Yu. "I'm very interested in you and want to be friends with you."

Chen Yu felt a little helpless. Liu Ruyan was too enthusiastic.

"I already have friends." Chen Yu said.

"Who is it?" Liu Ruyan asked curiously.

"Zhao Tiezhu." Chen Yu said.

"Zhao Tiezhu? That big, burly guy?" Liu Ruyan curled her lips. "How can he be considered a friend? He's just an acquaintance at best."

"Then...what about Lin Qingxue?" Chen Yu said again.

"Lin Qingxue? That icy beauty?" Liu Ruyan smiled. "She's not easy to approach. It's really not easy for you to become friends with her."

"We...we can be considered friends." Chen Yu said.

"Well, even if you're friends with them," Liu Ruyan said, "one more of me wouldn't be too much, right?"

Chen Yu was speechless. This Liu Ruyan was really outgoing.

"Well... I have something else to do and I really have to leave." After Chen Yu said this, he turned around and left again.

"Hey, don't go!" Liu Ruyan caught up again, "I haven't finished yet!"

Chen Yu stopped and looked at Liu Ruyan helplessly.

"What do you want to say?" Chen Yu asked.

"I like you!" Liu Ruyan said bluntly.

Chen Yu was stunned. He didn't expect Liu Ruyan to suddenly confess her feelings.

Chen Yu opened his mouth, but for a long time he was speechless. He had not expected Liu Ruyan to be so direct and so enthusiastic.

He was totally unprepared.

Liu Ruyan looked at Chen Yu's dazed expression and couldn't help laughing out loud.

"What? Are you scared by my enthusiasm?" She said, gently covering half of her face with a folding fan, revealing only a pair of smiling peach blossom eyes, which made her look even more charming and attractive.

Chen Yu came back to his senses, coughed twice, and said, "Um... Senior Sister Liu, you... are you kidding me?"

"Do I look like I'm joking?" Liu Ruyan put away her folding fan, walked up to Chen Yu, stretched out her slender jade fingers, and gently lifted Chen Yu's chin. "Junior brother, although you are not good-looking, I am very interested in you. What do you think? Would you consider me?"

Chen Yu quickly took a step back, avoiding Liu Ruyan's fingers. He felt his face getting hot, and his heartbeat quickened considerably.

"Senior Sister Liu, I...I..." Chen Yu stammered and couldn't speak.

"What do you mean?" Liu Ruyan pressed on. "Do you dislike me?"

"No... no..." Chen Yu quickly denied, "I just... I just..."

"Just what?" Liu Ruyan continued to ask.

"I'm just not ready yet." Chen Yu finally said a complete sentence.

"Not ready?" Liu Ruyan smiled. "It's okay. I can wait for you."

As she spoke, she took out a red jade pendant from her bosom and handed it to Chen Yu. "This is my communication jade pendant. Contact me when you have made up your mind."

Chen Yu looked at the jade pendant in Liu Ruyan's hand, hesitated for a moment, and finally took it.

"Then... I'll go first." After saying that, Chen Yu turned around and ran away like a frightened little rabbit.

Liu Ruyan looked at Chen Yu's fleeing back and couldn't help laughing out loud.

"What an interesting guy," she said to herself.

Chen Yu ran back to his cabin in one breath, closed the wooden door, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

He leaned against the door, touched his chest, and felt his heart beating fast.

"This Liu Ruyan is too enthusiastic." Chen Yu thought.

He took out the communication jade pendant that Liu Ruyan gave him and looked at it carefully.

The jade pendant is red all over and is carved with a blooming red lotus, which looks very delicate.

Chen Yu put away the jade pendant, then walked to the bed and sat down cross-legged.

He closed his eyes and tried to calm himself down.

After a while, Chen Yu opened his eyes and sighed.

"I didn't expect the world of cultivating immortals to be so complicated." He thought to himself.

He stood up, walked to the table, picked up the tattered bag, and took out a pack of instant noodles from it.

"Instant noodles are still the most reassuring." Chen Yu said to himself.

He boiled a pot of hot water, put the instant noodles in, and then added the seasoning packet.

Soon, the aroma of instant noodles filled the entire wooden house.

Chen Yu picked up the instant noodles and started eating them in big mouthfuls.

After eating the instant noodles, Chen Yu felt much better.

He cleared the dishes and lay down on the bed, ready to go to sleep.

"Let's report to the Deacon's Hall tomorrow." Chen Yu thought.

He closed his eyes and soon fell asleep.

The next morning, Chen Yu got up early, washed up, and went to the Deacon's Hall.

The Deacon's Hall was bustling with people coming and going.

Chen Yu found Elder Sun and reported to him.

"You're here." Elder Sun nodded when he saw Chen Yu. "From today on, you're a member of the Deacon Hall."

"Yes, Elder Sun." Chen Yu said respectfully.

"Your first task is..." Elder Sun paused, "Go to the medicinal fields in the back mountain and weed."

Chen Yu was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that his first task would be weeding again.

"The medicinal fields in the back mountain? Weeding again?" Chen Yu asked.

"That's right," Elder Sun said. "The weeds in the medicinal fields on the back mountain grow very fast and need to be cleaned frequently."

"Okay." Chen Yu agreed reluctantly.

He took the hoe and shovel handed to him by Elder Sun, turned around and left the Deacon Hall.

When he arrived at the medicinal field on the back mountain, Chen Yu saw Lin Qingxue standing on the ridge, looking into the distance.

"Senior Sister Lin." Chen Yu walked forward and greeted her.

Lin Qingxue turned around, saw Chen Yu, and nodded slightly.

"You're here." Lin Qingxue said.

"Yeah." Chen Yu responded.

"Your task is to clear the weeds in the medicinal field." Lin Qingxue said.

"I know." Chen Yu said.

"Let's start." Lin Qingxue said.

Chen Yu picked up the hoe and began to clear the weeds in the medicinal field.

Lin Qingxue stood aside and watched Chen Yu work quietly.

While working, Chen Yu secretly looked at Lin Qingxue.

Lin Qingxue is wearing a white dress today, which makes her look even more elegant and refined.

Chen Yu looked at Lin Qingxue and couldn't help feeling a little distracted.

"Cough cough." Chen Yu coughed twice to cover up his embarrassment.

Lin Qingxue turned her head, glanced at Chen Yu, and said nothing.

Chen Yu continued to work hard and didn't dare to look at Lin Qingxue again.
