Seeing Ci Gui descend from the sky, Yun Qingyi's eyes welled up with tears. After running for so long, her master finally knew she wasn't behind anymore.

Before Ci Gui could even dismount and stand still, Yun Qingyi grabbed his sleeve, afraid he would run away again.

"Master, I don't know how to fly on a sword..."

Ci Gui's lips twitched slightly, and he fell silent.

After a long pause, he finally spoke, "Is there any reason why you can't fly on a sword even though you're in the late stage of Foundation Establishment?"

Finally, he added, "Don't worry, you are now my disciple, and I will do my best to help you."

Now it was Yun Qingyi's turn to be silent. After a while, she whispered, "It seems to be... because I'm lazy."

After listening, Ci Gui summoned his longsword, picked up Yun Qingyi and placed her on it, then took her to the mountain he had chosen and flew away on his sword.

"We're here. Let go of my hand." Ci Gui looked at the hand that was tightly gripping her waist, her voice slightly helpless.

"Oh, okay, Master." Yun Qingyi hurriedly let go of her hand, feeling a little embarrassed. She had gotten used to holding Yun Qingrou's hand and hadn't changed it in time.

"This will be the mountain where you will live from now on. It doesn't have a name yet, so you can name it yourself. I've already asked two outer disciples to clean it up for you, and they will take care of your daily needs from now on," Ci Gui said earnestly, ignoring Yun Qingyi's embarrassment.

"Also, you have a senior brother named Ji Zhaoze who is currently training at the foot of the mountain. When he returns, you can ask him for advice if you have any questions while I am away."

After saying that, Ci Gui took out a storage ring.

"This is your apprenticeship gift. Take it carefully. Inside is a spirit sword, some spirit stones, and a jade pendant symbolizing your status. This storage ring can store living things, so please don't lose it like an ordinary ring. It will be very difficult for your master to find another one."

Yun Qingyi took the ring, her eyes shining. A storage ring that could hold living creatures—only a major sect like this would possess such a top-tier spiritual treasure.

"By the way, let's test your spiritual root. I didn't have time to test you in the main hall just now. Let me see how talented you are so I can choose a cultivation method and make a cultivation plan for you."

With a thought, Ci Gui produced a spirit-testing stone in his hand and gestured for Yun Qingyi to extend her hand.

Yun Qingyi obediently placed her hand on the stone, and instantly the stone emitted a dazzling purple light. The numbers that were faintly visible on it gradually became clearer over time.

Bone age thirteen, Lei, one hundred.

A fully-valued lightning spirit root?

Ci Gui was slightly startled. The mutated spirit was one in ten thousand, and this child's full potential was probably unmatched in the world. If he grew up, he could be the foremost prodigy of our time.

After putting away the spirit-testing stone, Ci Gui took out a jade slip from his storage ring and handed it to Yun Qingyi.

"This is the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Technique. It can strengthen your foundation and enhance the purity of the thunder element spiritual energy you absorb, allowing you to achieve twice the result with half the effort during cultivation. In addition, when the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Technique is fully mastered, you can summon nine heavenly thunderbolts with each spell. I obtained this technique from a certain secret realm, and now I'm giving it to you."

"You just gave it to her like that?" Yun Qingyi was a little touched: "Thank you, Master."

Although this master appears a bit aloof and indifferent on the surface, he is actually very kind-hearted.

Picking up the jade slip in her hand, Yun Qingyi suddenly remembered the Thunderclap Technique. The Thunderclap Technique could also summon heavenly thunder. She wondered which of the two was more powerful. One was a spell and the other was a cultivation technique. In terms of overall strength, the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Technique should be more powerful, since the Thunderclap Technique did not have the effect of strengthening the foundation and cultivating the vital energy.

"Well, if there's nothing else, I'll be taking my leave now."

“Um, Master…” Yun Qingyi called out to Ci Gui, who was about to step into the air, but hesitated to speak.

"Anything else?"

"Master, are you really not going to ask my name?"

The air seemed to freeze for a moment, and an awkward atmosphere spread.

Ci Gui broke the silence first: "What's your name?"

"My name is Yun Qingyi."

"Okay, Qingyi, then I'll be going now. I'll come and teach you how to practice sword control tomorrow morning."

"Take care, Master."

Watching Ci Gui's figure disappear in the blink of an eye, Yun Qingyi began to survey her mountain. The entire mountain was planted with her favorite peach blossoms. Looking into the distance, the clouds and mist swirled, and the peaks stretched endlessly. It was still a peaceful place.

It has to be said that the master she chose was exactly what she wanted, even though he had chosen him from the beginning.

The spiritual energy here is very rich. When she flew here, Ci Gui had already introduced the general terrain and facilities of Xuanmiao Sect to her in the sky. It is a bit far from the main hall that was used to receive guests, but it is closer to her senior brother whom she has not yet met, and it is also closer to Guimiao Peak where her master lives.

After admiring the beautiful scenery, Yun Qingyi walked towards the courtyard with pavilions and towers not far away.

There was a lotus pond in the courtyard. Yun Qingyi glanced at it and walked towards the pavilion in front of the corridor. After walking for a while, she saw two people ahead of her and they jogged towards her. They must be the two outer disciples that her master had mentioned.

The two disciples were dressed in outer sect disciple attire; one looked clever and lively, while the other appeared charming and cute.

"Disciple Xingyan, disciple Xingyu greets Martial Uncle."

Although I was mentally prepared, I still have to get used to the title of "uncle-master"...

She smiled gently at them and nodded slightly: "Hello, my name is Yun Qingyi."

"Uncle Yun, let us take you to see the resting place. It's decorated so beautifully!" Xingyan Xingyu saw that although this uncle had a cold demeanor, he was actually very gentle. She couldn't help but relax and happily introduced the courtyard's layout and the sect's various rules and regulations to Yun Qingyi.

"By the way, Uncle-Master, our peak doesn't have a name yet?" Xingyan blinked her big eyes and asked Yun Qingyi.

Yun Qingyi pondered for a moment: "This mountain is covered with peach blossoms. As the saying goes, 'The peach tree is young and tender, and its beauty is bright and beautiful.' Why not call it Peach Blossom Peak?"

"Why not call it Peach Blossom Peak?" Xingyu asked, puzzled.

"Peach Blossom Peak sounds nice."

I won't comment on Xingyan Xingyu, but since my uncle likes it, I don't care what he calls it.

……

After seeing Xingyan and Xingyu off, Yun Qingyi sat on a stool, took out the storage ring given to her by her master, imbued it with her divine sense, and then took out everything except the spirit stones.

Besides the jade pendant and spirit sword mentioned by the master, there was also a set of personal disciple robes and a booklet.

Yun Qingyi picked up the booklet, on which were written in bold characters: "Sect Rules".

Curious, she opened it, but the dense text made her dizzy. She decisively threw it aside, put on the jade pendant, and picked up the spirit sword on the table. The moment she picked it up, even though Yun Qingyi didn't know much about swords, she knew it was a good sword.

The sword hilt is engraved with the two characters "Lingji," so this sword must be called Lingji, Yun Qingyi thought.

A drop of blood was forced from his fingertip and dripped into the sword.

A connection immediately appeared in her consciousness. She guessed correctly; indeed, swords with names were never ordinary.

A sudden inspiration struck, and the idea proudly agreed with Yun Qingyi's thought.
