After her senior sister was reborn, she actually became a powerful and arrogant protagonist?!

"Wait a minute, Fellow Daoist Chu!"

Just as Chu Luobai turned to leave, Xu Xing, who had been standing silently to the side, spoke up.

"Just now we were only thinking about showing Fellow Daoist Chu the best things left behind by the Drunken Sword Immortal, but we forgot that there are many other things as well."

"Why don't you wait a little longer, Fellow Daoist Chu, so that the three of us can discuss this for a while, and then we will bring all the items to you?"

The usual excuse of stalling for time.

Chu Luobai had simply lost patience.

"Since I have been entrusted by Senior Sword Immortal, I will only take what I need."

"If we were to ask the three seniors to bring out all their possessions, people would probably say that the disciples of my Qingyun Sword Sect are abusing their power."

After saying that, Chu Luobai turned and walked towards the depths of the back mountain, with Zhao Jingren and Qiu Lin following closely behind her.

The expressions on the faces of all three changed.

The back mountain is where the Spirit Spring of the Flowing Shadow Sword Sect is located!

We can't let Chu Luobai just get away with this!

"Fellow Daoist Chu!"

Lou Jiming had barely opened his mouth when he heard a whooshing sound.

That was the sound of a longsword being drawn from its sheath.

The gleaming blade was less than an inch from Lou Jiming's throat.

Tick.

Large beads of cold sweat slid down Lou Jiming's forehead.

Even though they were both at the Dao Integration Realm, he couldn't even see Zhao Jingren's sword movements clearly!

The terrifying gap in combat power between them made Lou Jiming's heart tighten.

"Elder, I don't have the same patience as my senior sister."

Zhao Jingren's voice was icy, and the murderous intent in his eyes was undisguised.

An overwhelming pressure, carrying an astonishing killing intent, swept over them. In an instant, the three elders of the Flowing Shadow Sword Sect felt the pressure increase exponentially.

After a long silence, Chu Luobai finally spoke.

"Elders, I will leave after taking my things, so there is no need to worry too much."

"Junior Brother Zhao, put your sword away. Don't frighten the three elders. The Qingyun Sword Sect's motto has always been to treat people with kindness."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Jingren raised an eyebrow, glanced coldly at the three of them, and then slowly sheathed his longsword.

Watching the three figures disappear into the distance, Lou Jiming and the others could only stand there and let them go deep into the back mountain.

Two young cultivators at the Dao Integration Realm, plus the backing of the Azure Cloud Sword Sect...

"So be it, it's not something a small sect like ours can keep."

.................................................. ......................

Meanwhile, deep in the back mountains.

Guided by the gourd, Chu Luobai traversed the winding mountain path and arrived at a spring emitting steam.

Nan Yue, who had just finished bathing, looked up and saw Chu Luobai, a hint of surprise appearing on her fair face.

"Senior Chu, how did you come to this place?"

"Master! Master! This is it!"

"I can sense that the source of this spring water is exactly the same as that of the Seven Returns Spring!"

The gourd shouted excitedly in Chu Luobai's sea of ​​consciousness.

"Okay, okay, I'll get it in right away."

Chu Luobai reassured her from within her sea of ​​consciousness.

He immediately looked up at Nan Yue.

Even though only one night had passed, Nan Yue seemed to have become even more beautiful.

It was a kind of cool beauty with a strangely alluring quality.

Zhao Jingren frowned as he looked at Nan Yue's face, his expression hesitant as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.

But in the end, he chose to remain silent and turned his head away.

"I came here to pick up some things, which is also the reason I came to the Flowing Shadow Sword Sect. But why are you here so early in the morning?"

Chu Luobai's gaze first fell on Nan Yue, and then shifted to the hot spring.

"One of the rewards I received from the sect competition was a chance to bathe in this Marrow Cleansing Spring."

"As Senior Chu also knows, the higher a person's talent, the stronger their combat power. This Marrow Cleansing Spring can improve a cultivator's aptitude, and I didn't want to waste any of it, so I came here early this morning."

Having experienced yesterday, Nan Yue now holds Chu Luobai in exceptional respect.

They didn't hold back at all when talking about things.

"The Marrow Cleansing Spring can improve a cultivator's physique. Your Flowing Shadow Sword Sect has such a wonderful thing, yet you're still in such a sorry state..."

Throughout the entire Qingzhou Realm, and even across the entire continent, anything that can improve a cultivator's physique is an extremely precious treasure sought after by everyone.

If a sect has such a thing, it can rely on it to continuously recruit disciples.

While it may not become a massive sect like the Qingyun Sword Sect, it can certainly become a mid-tier sect.

Chu Luobai couldn't help but frown when he recalled the miserable state of the Flowing Shadow Sword Sect, that ninth-rate sect.

How much of what the Drunken Sword Immortal left behind was actually embezzled by those three old men?

"Senior Chu, are you looking for something? I'm quite familiar with this area, so perhaps I can be of help."

Nan Yue blinked, her face showing an expression of anticipation that she could be of help.

Chu Luobai lowered her eyes, staring blankly at the misty water.

Those old fogies clearly know the benefits of this spring, yet they still fail to revitalize their sect.

What good can a dilapidated sect do by guarding it?

Unless there is something in this sect that is worth their patience.

If there's anything more useful in this sect than this spring water...

Thinking of this, Chu Luobai looked up at Nan Yue opposite him.

"I asked you before if you were willing to join the Azure Cloud Sword Sect. Have you thought it through now?"

Nan Yue blinked, somewhat confused.

But when Nan Yue saw Chu Luobai's serious expression, she knew things were not simple.

"If possible, I would like to join the Qingyun Sword Sect."

Compared to this cold and aloof sect, where even those stronger than their senior brothers are not recognized.

Nan Yue preferred to follow Chu Luobai into the Qingyun Sword Sect.

"That's good. Then I don't need to hide it anymore."

Chu Luobai raised his hand, and the special spiritual power originating from the blessed land enveloped the entire hot spring.

The ground shook.

That spring water was actually forcibly separated from the ground.

The originally solid hot spring gradually condensed and eventually entered Chu Luobai's body like a puff of mist.

"this..."

Nan Yue's pupils trembled slightly as she watched this scene.

It is said that the higher a cultivator's cultivation level, the closer their connection with heaven and earth.

But Nan Yue never expected that Chu Luobai would be able to use these natural resources for his own benefit...

"Senior Chu is truly amazing..."

She couldn't help but sigh.

The moment the spiritual spring entered his body, Chu Luobai could clearly feel that there were astonishing changes within the Sword Lake Blessed Land.

The heavens and earth trembled, and countless mountains emerged again from the previously chaotic area.

Subsequently, countless green trees quickly grew and covered the mountains.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the mountains continued to gather, and countless spirit beasts familiar to cultivators appeared out of thin air in the forest.

"This is... an area suitable for spirit beasts to live in."

As Hulu gazed at the newly appeared area, he murmured unconsciously.

Meanwhile, the stone tablet hidden beneath the Seven Returns Spring also quietly underwent a change.

【Heavenly Cave - Seven Returning Springs】
