Everyone present lowered their heads in shame.

Jiang Liqian felt even more guilty. This time, it was because of her that her senior brothers and sisters angered Jiang Yueming, and now they had to be punished as well...

"Master, it's me..."

Zhongdao raised his hand to interrupt her. "You've been very obedient. If it weren't for those three bastards leading you, you wouldn't have suffered this. There's no need to make excuses for them."

"But it was indeed me..."

"You are all brothers and sisters, so why differentiate between you and me? Naturally, you will be punished together, make mistakes together, and get into trouble together." Zhongdao smiled and patted his big belly. He didn't seem to be really angry.

Jiang Liqian felt slightly relieved.

"However," Zhongdao's voice really deepened this time, carrying a hint of worry, "Qian'er, An'er, your outstanding talents are a good thing, but you are still too young, and many people will be jealous. If you achieve such a high level of cultivation so quickly, I'm afraid it will be a disaster."

As he spoke, he took out two button-like objects he had prepared long ago from the mustard seed space and placed them in their hands. "These are buttons made of Thousand Marrow Stone. You can pin them on your collar or sleeves as decoration. They can block others from observing your cultivation. As long as the buttons don't fall off or get damaged, no one below the Nascent Soul stage will be able to see your cultivation. Keep them."

Jiang Liqian didn't expect that her master would say that, and she even specially found Thousand Marrow Stones for them. Thousand Marrow Stones are very rare, so they are very expensive and are not usually seen at auctions.

and……

The more outstanding the disciple, the more proud the teacher, isn't it? Looking across the entire cultivation world, who wouldn't want to show off their talented disciple? Who wouldn't want such a disciple to bring glory to their school?

In her previous life, she was forced to fast and was thrown into the snow for three days and three nights. Her hands were so frozen that she couldn't even lift the sword, but she still had to wave it over and over again, memorizing all kinds of sword moves. She experienced life and death adventures time and time again, and made breakthroughs time and time again, all just for that one sentence - worthy of being the disciple of the Immortal Master Qingzhi, worthy of being the first disciple of the Qiankun Sect.

The more outstanding she is, the more respectful everyone will be to the Qiankun Sect.

The more powerful she is, the more the disciples in the sect trust her.

She stood high enough to provide shelter for everyone in the Qiankun Sect.

No one would think she was wrong, and no one would teach her that it was wrong.

No one would ask her to hide her cultivation and just be an ordinary disciple.

"Master, aren't you happy that I have made some progress in my cultivation? I can bring honor to you and prevent others from looking down on us at Zhenfeng..." she asked tentatively.

Upon hearing this, Chongdao gave her a slap on the face.

"What are you thinking? Does your master need you to support him? Do you think your master is called 'the first cultivator of the cultivation array' for nothing?"

Jiang Liqian was stunned, staring at Zhongdao blankly, unable to speak for a long time.

Yeah, what on earth did she think she was? Her master was already a renowned figure in the cultivation world, so why should she force herself to be even better and better to earn his respect?

He himself is enough to be respected by everyone.

She is not responsible for the entire sect now, nor does she need to look after her fellow junior brothers and sisters. She is just an ordinary, plain four-year-old child.

[Ding! The backlash value of the young master's inner demon has decreased by 1%. The current backlash value is 52%.]

Jiang Liqian suddenly felt that her neck, which had been held tightly, finally got a breath.

Holding the button in her hand, she smiled sincerely and earnestly at Master Chongdao.

"Disciple, thank you, Master."

Xu Youan silently watched the smile on her face, and unconsciously curved his eyebrows. He also imitated her and said to Master Zhongdao with gratitude: "Disciple thanks Master."

However, Luo Qing'an, who was sitting opposite the two of them, laughed out loud as he looked at Master Zhongdao who seemed a little at a loss.

"This is incredible! Not only has our Zhenfeng got a stern and upright junior sister, but they've also got a righteous and upright junior brother. If these two were to become a couple, they'd be like an old couple rejuvenated!"

Master Chongdao also smiled helplessly.

It's just the master giving something to his own disciple, there's no need for such a formal thank you.

Besides, it’s not a very valuable treasure.

Jiang Liqian also knew that her personality was too dull and boring, but she had become accustomed to dealing with things this way. Even though she was just a child now, her true soul was already twenty-seven years old. Her words and deeds represented the entire Qiankun Sect, so how could she dare to make any mistakes?

Even if she wanted to change now, she couldn't develop the lively personality of a child in a short time.

She rubbed the button given to her by her master vigorously, her face flushed, and she didn't know how to respond to the teasing of her third senior sister.

It was Xu Youan who spoke up: "Senior Sister, can you help me pin this on my collar?"

Jiang Liqian nodded hurriedly and reached out to help him button up his shirt.

This button is made in the shape of a small maple leaf, very thin. At first glance, it looks like a scroll with a ray of light shining through it, which is very beautiful.

Because it was pinned on her collar, Jiang Liqian was very close to him, and he could always smell the faint scent of pine snow on her body, almost imperceptibly.

It is very cool and light, but it has a kind of unrestrained and unruly spirit that looks down on the world and would rather break than bend.

Xu Youan knew.

This is the aura that belongs to a sword, a swordsman who holds a sword.

Even if this sword has fallen into the quagmire, even if this sword has fallen into the abyss, even if this sword has been stepped on by everyone she protects.

The sword is blunt and broken, and the sword light is gone.

She is still the best sword that everyone in the world is eager to obtain.

The fragrance faded away, and his gaze slowly withdrew from her, but the irregular beating of his heart still told him how much he missed this moment.

This moment of closeness.

"Thank you, Senior Sister." He lowered his eyes, no longer daring to look into her eyes.

He would scare her.

She must not see the madness in his eyes.

"By the way, Third Senior Sister, is Xiao Jintao still with you? We were away for three days, and it was alone... a dog. Can it take care of itself? Is it hungry?" Jiang Liqian suddenly remembered something and asked Luo Qing'an.

Luo Qing'an reassured her and got up to go to a side room. Soon a furry little creature came out of the side room and rushed into Jiang Liqian's arms with a howling sound.

It kept scratching with its two little paws, opened its little mouth, and bit her sleeve, refusing to let go.

[You damned woman, you still remember to come back?!]

"Do you know how long I've been waiting for you here? You finally came back, and you forgot about me! You forgot about me!"

[If I didn't want to take advantage of your luck so I could return to my clan in style, I wouldn't be treating you, a damned woman, with such a kind face!]
