I tricked you into thinking you had the makings of an emperor, but you actually did it?

The next day, Xu Lingyue made a discovery.

"What a despicable guy!"

Xu Lingyue stood on a hill on Tongtian Peak, below which was a secluded house belonging to an inner disciple.

At this time, the place was bustling with visitors, some of whom even brought generous gifts.

The courtyard is Shen Ming's residence. After yesterday's commotion, the Xuan Tian Sect is spreading rumors about this monstrous genius.

Naturally, many disciples wanted to befriend him, and some even wanted to follow him.

To outsiders, it was a foregone conclusion that Shen Ming would become a true disciple, and when he lived in the cave, he would inevitably need to have a disciple by his side.

These people enjoy treatment no less than that of true disciples.

"I have wandered for half my life, and I only regret that I have not met the wise one. If you do not despise me, I am willing to become your godfather." Therefore, the inner disciples all wanted to befriend him in advance.

Among these people, Xu Lingyue recognized one of the women.

Liu Qianqian!

She has fair skin and a beautiful face, with almond-shaped eyes, a voluptuous figure, and a cascade of jet-black hair.

Xu Lingyue and Liu Qianqian are the two prodigies of Xuantian and have a close relationship.

At this moment, Liu Qianqian was coming out of Shen Ming's residence, looking smug.

Xu Lingyue was so anxious that she stomped her feet. She was the only one who knew the truth.

Shen Ming can never become a true disciple; you're all wasting your time!

Xu Lingyue grew up in the Xuantian Sect and considered it her home.

Seeing someone swindling and cheating at home is naturally intolerable.

She made up her mind, and with a leap, she floated down like a kite.

"It's Senior Sister Xu!"

The disciples who had gathered were shocked to see Xu Lingyue.

Xu Lingyue was beautiful and no less so than Liu Qianqian. She was also the daughter of the Transmission Elder, a person of noble status, and yet she also came here.

Liu Qianqian, who hadn't gone far, was quite surprised to see her best friend.

She always thought that Xu Lingyue hated romantic love and considered it a waste of time.

Liu Qianqian was annoyed that the attack had to happen at this particular moment, right in front of her.

Soon, Liu Qianqian straightened her chest, and a fighting spirit emerged in her eyes.

Let's have a competition then, who's afraid of who!

Xu Lingyue was completely unaware of what outsiders were thinking. She knocked on Shen Ming's door, and after receiving a response, she pushed the door open and entered.

“Junior Brother Shen, I am Xu Lingyue, and the Transmission Elder is my father,” Xu Lingyue said.

"So it's Senior Sister Xu." Shen Ming stood under a tree in the courtyard.

Xu Lingyue was a few years older than him and had the cultivation level of the second stage of the Innate Realm. According to the rules of the Xuantian Sect, he should address her as Senior Sister.

“Are those people outside so annoying that I have to drive them away?” Xu Lingyue asked.

"No need, guests are always welcome," Shen Ming said with a smile.

He enjoyed making friends, especially when he first arrived at the Xuantian Sect.

She's quite the actor!

Xu Lingyue was convinced that he just wanted to be admired by others in order to gain benefits from it.

Born into a first-class family, they naturally had no shortage of money; their only purpose was to take advantage of someone's body.

Xu Lingyue said with a smile, "I saw Liu Qianqian looking very happy when she went out just now. What good news did she tell Junior Brother Shen?"

"You mean Senior Sister Liu? She said there's a Falling Star Cliff on Xuantian Spirit Mountain where you can see a magnificent meteor shower, and she invited me to watch it with her," Shen Ming said.

Falling Star Cliff!

Xu Lingyue frowned slightly; that was a sacred dating spot for Xuan Tian Sect disciples.

Qianqian is so shameless!

However, it's all her father's fault for boasting about his innate holy body and supreme Dao embryo. Coupled with Shen Ming's excellent appearance and temperament, it's no wonder that Liu Qianqian was anxious.

“Junior Brother Shen, you have an innate sacred body and a supreme Dao embryo, so you should focus your mind on cultivation.”

Xu Lingyue subtly offered a few words of advice.

My father is the Transmission Elder, and I know exactly what's going on with your talent. Don't even think about causing trouble for the female disciples of our sect.

Shen Yue felt a chill run down her spine, realizing that the other party was the daughter of the Transmission Elder.

This is to... motivate myself to cultivate myself!

He was somewhat surprised, as he had only been at the Xuantian Sect for two days and hadn't even officially started cultivating yet.

On second thought, I realized that I have exceptional talent, so it's normal for me to be valued.

Seeing the change in Shen Ming's expression, Xu Lingyue smiled with satisfaction, believing that her reprimand had worked.

"Then I won't bother you, junior brother..."

"Senior sister, please wait a moment. May I ask you about the three realms of the innate realm?"

Shen Ming called her over. Since his senior sister had come to encourage him, she shouldn't mind giving him some pointers.

Xu Lingyue stopped in her tracks, her beautiful eyes trembling slightly.

This is the right counterattack!

Xu Lingyue realized that this young master of the Jiang family had quite a temper.

“Alright, then I will explain the three realms of innate nature in detail over the next few days.”

Not to be outdone, Xu Lingyue decided to sacrifice herself to appease Shen Ming and completely dispel his evil intentions.

"Thank you very much, Senior Sister," Shen Ming said sincerely.

Although the master leads you through the door, the practice depends on yourself.

But without someone to explain it, it's time-consuming and laborious.

The Xuantian Sect holds a lecture every month to answer the inner disciples' questions about cultivation.

With Senior Sister Xu Lingyue's help, we can save a lot of time.

Xu Lingyue, having nothing else to do today, sat down at the stone table.

"The three realms of innate nature are, in order, the Mysterious Pass, the Divine Treasury, and the Primordial Palace. These three realms are further divided into the early stage, the middle stage, and the late stage."

The Mysterious Pass Realm, as the name suggests, is the process of opening up the nine mysterious passes within the body through one's original true energy.

Divine Court Realm: Nine mysterious gates lead to the Divine Treasury, which contains five treasuries, namely metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, which are also the five internal organs of the human body.

After the entrance hall and the spirit court, one enters the primordial palace, where true qi is transformed into true essence.

Xu Lingyue explained the three realms of the Innate Realm one by one, while concentrating intently, preparing for Shen Ming's attack.

She certainly didn't believe that Shen Ming was genuinely seeking advice, but rather that he wanted to use this as a pretext for a counterattack.

For example, ask her questions she can't answer.

Shen Ming comes from a first-class family, so it's normal for him to have such insight.

She was overthinking it; Shen Ming's knowledge of martial arts only applied to the Body Tempering Realm.

Upon reaching the third realm of the Innate Realm, there wasn't much information left in my memory.

He seized the opportunity and asked all the questions that had been bothering him.

Is this a test?

Xu Lingyue was somewhat surprised. These questions were neither tricky nor difficult, which puzzled her.

She didn't want this young master of the Jiang family to look down on her, so she answered every question, no matter how small.

There are still more good people than bad in the world.

Seeing his senior sister patiently explaining things to him and even helping him to apply what he learned to other situations, Shen Ming was impressed by the atmosphere among the disciples of the Xuantian Sect.

With such unity and friendship among the disciples, it's no wonder they became one of the top ten sects in the Northern Region.

As dusk fell, Xu Lingyue left the courtyard, a strange feeling lingering in her heart.

It's unclear whether Shen Ming is pretending to be stupid or genuinely stupid.

There were disciples waiting outside the door, and when they saw Xu Lingyue come out, they all showed knowing smiles.

Xu Lingyue, still innocent and unaware of romantic feelings, couldn't decipher the meaning behind those gazes.

"Shen Mingchu is new here and needs to focus on his cultivation. He should not be disturbed in the future." Xu Lingyue did not forget her original intention.

The disciples looked at each other, thinking that they had never seen Xu Lingyue with such a domineering side.

You didn't want us to come because you were afraid of disturbing you and that junior brother Shen inside, right?

The disciples thought it to themselves and agreed verbally.

Xu Lingyue nodded in satisfaction, this way Shen Ming would have no chance to deceive the sect disciples.
