This is my first time playing the female lead, what's wrong with the tea and snacks?

“Young friends, we are from the Qingyuan Sect of the Haoyuan Realm. I am Cai Song, an elder of the Qingyuan Sect, and they are all disciples of my Qingyuan Sect.”

"Elder Gao Suxin is also an inner sect elder of the Qingyuan Sect."

"We are here to train our disciples. We saw the firelight tonight and passed by out of curiosity. We have no ill intentions. Please forgive us for disturbing you."

Li Cangyao's expression was unusually cold, as if he ignored the newly appeared crowd, and continued to remove fish bones from Su Yu.

Su Yu glanced at the Qingyuan Sect; their strength was obvious, and she didn't sense any hostility from them.

The two elders, along with a group of sect disciples, must have come for training.

This place is located in the western part of Fengpu Mountain, near the Northern Xuan Domain.

It seems that the Qingyuan Sect is a sect or force in the Northern Xuan Region.

The fact that two people are protecting a group of young disciples generally does not pose any threat.

He didn't seem to harbor much hostility, and said with a faint smile, "It's alright, we're both here to train as well."

The old woman, Gao Suxin, said kindly, "It's late tonight, and there are monsters lurking deep in the mountains. May we stay here for the night?"

"Rest assured, both of you. My Qingyuan Sect is a well-known righteous sect in the Haoyuan Realm and would never harbor any ill intentions."

"If it's really inconvenient, we can leave here."

Upon hearing this, Li Cangyao, who had remained silent the whole time, frowned.

He came here to spend some time alone with Qingyi; he didn't want to be disturbed by a bunch of third wheels.

So he decided to refuse directly.

Just as he was about to speak righteously, Su Yu spoke first.

"It's nothing, just a short break, I won't bother you," Su Yu's light voice came.

Ah? ?

Li Cangyao looked at Su Yu with a blank expression. He was about to retort, but when he saw the look Su Yu gave him, he immediately backed down.

Okay, it's just one night's stay. I can shake them off first thing tomorrow morning...

When Su Yu agreed, all the disciples of Qingyuan Sect were overjoyed and almost jumped up to cheer.

The man and woman they encountered in the mountains were so beautiful that they were astonished; they had never seen such beautiful people before.

Especially the woman in white, with her ethereal beauty and aloof charm, was truly unique in the mortal world.

Fortunately, they were the first to encounter them, so even if they encounter bad guys in the future, they can lend a helping hand and protect them.

Spending a night with someone of such beauty, without even looking back, is quite an experience.

After setting up camp at Qingyuan Sect, they naturally blended into the atmosphere.

After a brief encounter, Qingyuan Sect learned from Su Yu that the two were rogue cultivators.

They knew the other person was hiding something, but they didn't say much. After all, when traveling alone, it's best not to reveal one's true identity.

Judging from their appearance, demeanor, and unfathomable cultivation levels, they must be prodigies from powerful forces or scions of prominent families.

Su Yu also learned about the general situation of the Qingyuan Sect disciples from the other party.

The Qingyuan Sect is one of the three major orthodox sects in the Haoyuan Realm of the Northern Xuan Region, with an eight-thousand-year lineage.

Since the Qingyuan Sect's once-in-a-decade Gathering of Prodigies was in three months, two elders accompanied the prodigy disciples to train, complete sect missions, and earn merit points.

The main targets of this trial are disciples Tan Hongxiu and Xi Chenxi.

They were also the Qingyuan Sect disciples with the highest cultivation levels in this team, at the late stage and early stage of the King Realm.

One is the son of the sect leader, possessing the Thunder King Physique; the other is Qinglian, one of the Three Beauties of Qingyuan, a genius in talisman cultivation.

The Three Beauties of Qingyuan Sect are similar to the Jade Immortal Ranking of Zhanyue Sect.

Judging from Xi Chenxi's appearance and strength, she should at least be in the top five of the Jade Immortal Ranking.

"Fairy Qingyi, you are so beautiful. Even my two senior sisters from Qingyuan Sect are not as beautiful as you."

Sitting upright beside Su Yu, Xi Chenxi looked at him with bright, admiring eyes.

Su Yu chuckled. "You're very beautiful too; I'm afraid you have quite a few suitors in the Qingyuan Sect."

As he spoke, his gaze involuntarily fell upon Tan Hongxiu, who was secretly watching him from not far away.

Tan Hongxiu is the son of the sect leader, a person of noble status. The fact that he was able to condescend to go out for training with other disciples is probably because he was accompanying Xi Chenxi.

What a classic encounter! He'd seen plenty of these melodramatic scenarios before.

"I'm still a long way from perfect..."

Xi Chenxi adjusted her clothes somewhat shyly, her beautiful eyes drifting towards Li Cangyao beside Su Yu.

She leaned close to Su Yu's ear and whispered:

"Fairy Qingyi, are you and Fellow Daoist Li Cangyao a Daoist couple?"

Su Yu immediately shook her head in denial, "No, you guessed wrong, he and I are just friends."

"Just friends?" Xi Chenxi was taken aback.

Are they just friends? How dare they come to this desolate wilderness alone in the middle of the night?

Moreover, both of them, in terms of their demeanor and appearance, resembled a divine couple, easily making people think of them as a pair.

"So, did you just happen to meet along the way, or were you already acquainted?"

“We already knew each other. A while ago, due to special circumstances, he was worried I would be bored, so he brought me out to relax,” Su Yu replied.

"So that's it..."

Meanwhile, Tan Hongxiu's attention had been focused on Su Yu and the other person. He subtly released his spiritual energy and keenly heard their conversation, his eyes immediately lighting up.

He had assumed that the woman in white and Li Cangyao were Daoist partners, but she denied it.

Does that mean the other person has absolutely no interest in him?

Faced with such stunning beauty, he said it was impossible not to be moved.

Then, with a gentle smile and elegant demeanor, he looked at Su Yu and said:

“Miss Qingyi, Fengpu Mountain is located at the border. It is a vast mountain range with many demonic beasts, but it is also a place where all kinds of people mingle and there are countless dangers within.

"Rumor has it that there are several demonic beasts with one foot in the eighth rank lurking deep in the mountains. There are also rumors that dozens of Heavenly Venerables, or half-saint powerhouses, got lost in the western part of Fengpu Mountain and none of them escaped."

"This is not a good place to relax; we need to proceed with caution."

Su Yu simply smiled at Tan Hongxiu's well-intentioned reminder.

"Thank you for the reminder, Young Master Tan. We will take note."

Tan Hongxiu smiled and said, "Miss Qingyi, you naturally need to be careful outside of dangerous tribes, but ultimately, there is strength in numbers, and the fewer people there are, the greater the crisis you will encounter."

"Since we are both training at Fengpu Mountain, why don't we train together? That way, the risks we face will naturally be reduced."

"If the opportunity arises, we can split it equally. What do you think, Miss Qingyi?"

Tan Hongxiu went straight to the point, extending a team invitation to Su Yu, wanting to recruit her into his team.

You should know from the previous brief introduction that the other party already knows that you are the son of the Qingyuan Sect Master, that is, the young sect master.

The Qingyuan Sect is one of the top sects in the Haoyuan Realm, and its patriarch achieved the Saintly Dao Realm a hundred years ago.

With a Saintly Dao expert in charge, even if there is only one, apart from those super sects, this is still considered to be among the top tier of strength in the entire Northern Xuan Region.

Given his own status, even if Mu Qingyi has an extraordinary background, he would probably have to treat her with caution.
