Stealing the female lead's favor turns her from a heartthrob to a universally disliked figure.

An hour later, Wen Yang discovered that Bai Xiangling had indeed lost weight again, this time her waist was even thinner.

But they soon discovered that Bai Xiangling, who was skilled with words, had instigated several Lingjian Peak disciples to go off the spirit boat to spar and fight to the death.

When others were injured, she rushed over to offer comfort and medical treatment.

Then, the group noticed that when they saw Bai Xiangling again, her once robust limbs had become slender.

"Oh my god, she's practically a witch!" Qiu Shaoze stomped his feet in anger.

Wen Yang gritted his teeth lightly, "Just don't bring trouble to our Lingqin Peak!"

"Even if this kind of woman becomes more beautiful, she'll still be a femme fatale," Lan Cen said calmly.

He didn't think Bai Xiangling was beautiful.

Come to think of it, he still thinks their master is more attractive, and just looking at her makes him want to smile at her.

[My master's hands are so soft; they must be as soft as her heart.]

As Lan Cen felt a pang of emotion, Xia Nanfeng and Qiu Shaoze simultaneously patted him heavily on the shoulder.

"Fourth Junior Brother, don't think about things you shouldn't," Yao Han warned first.

Lan Cen coughed lightly, "I was just telling the truth. Shizun is still Shizun, don't overthink it."

As soon as he finished speaking, they saw their master, dressed in a flowing and exquisite white shirt, red skirt, and Xuanling robe, step down from the spirit boat.

Lan Cen felt her breathing become lighter.

The master was slender and had a quiet temperament. She was beautiful but unaware of it. Usually, she had a plain face and a calm demeanor. But now, this red dress made her look radiant, and she truly had the ultimate beauty of snow-capped mountains with flowers blooming in abundance.

Their master is truly a beauty!

Wen Yang felt like he couldn't walk anymore.

How come this person who is so beautiful and pleasing to my eye is my master and not my junior sister?

Xia Nanfeng, Qiu Shaoze, and Yao Han were stunned for a moment before they came to their senses.

"Master!"

"Yes. They're all here!" Li Qingqing handed a bottle of pills to Yao Han.

Yao Han was stunned for a moment, "Master, what is this?"

"Those who wanted to refine the Nine-Turn Muscle Regeneration Pill lacked both the ability and the medicinal materials, so they couldn't succeed. I refined a Three-Turn Crimson Pattern Muscle Regeneration Pill, but I don't know its effects yet. You'll have to make do with it for now."

When Li Qingqing spoke, her tone was one of frustration and her words of regret.

What she didn't say was that, because she was dissatisfied with the results of the alchemy, she was distracted and didn't notice that the hem of her previous clothes had been scorched by the earth fire, which is why she changed into this Xuanling robe.

Yao Han was moved once again.

His master is so good to him!

They spared no effort in treating his leg!

As long as he recovers, he will definitely cultivate diligently and not let his master regret accepting him as a disciple!

He poured out a muscle-regenerating pill with three concentric red patterns around it and immediately swallowed it.

The others watched him quietly, wondering about the effects of the elixir.

A moment later, Yao Han suddenly touched his leg. "Master, my leg seems a little itchy."

"Let me see." Qiu Shaoze lifted his shirt, revealing his legs.

Yao Han's fractured leg bones have mostly healed, and from the outside, he looks almost like an ordinary person.

But if you lift his leg, you'll know that it's weak.

Xia Nanfeng even poked it with his finger, "Is it itchy bones, or itchy meridians?"

Yao Han said somewhat uncertainly, "It seems a little itchy."

"Then the pills must be having some effect. As long as you can tolerate it, keep taking them. I'll write down a list and put it in the shared resource warehouse later. If you enter the Divine Ruins, find all the medicinal herbs on the list and put them in the shared space. I'll need them later," Li Qingqing reminded her.

“Yes, Master.” Xia Nanfeng nodded.

From now on, they will not keep the medicinal herbs themselves, but leave them all for their master.

"Some hemostatic pills were also included; please take them as you wish."

After Li Qingqing finished speaking, she went to the other peak masters to guard the place where the gate to the Divine Ruins was opened.

Not long after she left, Yao Han felt as if thousands of ants were biting her legs, causing both pain and itching, making her extremely uncomfortable.

Looking at his sweat-drenched appearance, Qiu Shaoze couldn't help but feel worried. "Should we ask someone from Lingyi Peak to take a look at you?"

"No...no need. I can feel my meridians repairing and growing at the same time."

Yao Han was in a lot of pain, but she was happy inside.

"Why don't you try taking another repair pill? Let's do it both ways," Lan Cen suggested.

"Okay." Yao Han thought it was feasible, so he swallowed another top-grade repair pill.

About half an hour later, Yao Han discovered that he could actually move two of his toes.

After a while, he found that the itching and pain in his legs had disappeared, and he could move all ten toes again.

After the effects of the medicine had worn off, he took one Three-Turn Muscle Regeneration Pill and one Top-Grade Repairing Pill.

On the other side, Li Qingqing chatted with Elder Wu for a few minutes, and after learning that the gate to the Divine Ruins might not open for some time, she wandered around.

Many people came to the Northern Continent Ice Sea, including people from various sects, as well as some prominent families and independent cultivators from the Nine Continents of Hualing.

Li Qingqing was keeping an eye on those independent cultivators, hoping to find a lucky disciple.

However, she didn't see anyone suitable or appealing until night fell.

As night deepened, the Master of the Spirit Chef Peak lit a large fire to warm himself amidst the thick ice sea.

He felt cold while on the spirit boat, so he came down.

It was only then that Li Qingqing realized that the icy sea was much colder at night than during the day, especially near the Gate of the Divine Ruins.

Fortunately, her Xuanling Robe could resist the cold air of the icy sea, so she didn't feel unbearably cold.

"Uncle-Master, why don't you have some wine to warm yourself up?" Li Qingqing whispered.

The Master of the Spirit Chef Peak shook his head, "That good wine froze in no time after being taken out, which is too wasteful of my wine."

"Then I'll play you a tune!" Li Qingqing took out a cushion, sat down, and took out her accordion.

The Spirit Chef Peak Master was taken aback. "Playing music? Aren't you cold?"

Li Qingqing smiled slightly, "Isn't there a 'Divine Song of Light' in the Nine Volumes of Huayin? This song can dispel the coldness in one's heart."

The Spirit Chef Peak Master laughed heartily, "Only someone like you would use the Nine Scrolls of Huayin like this. But go ahead and play, I'm really cold."

Li Qingqing set up her zither, her fingers lightly touching the strings, and a series of ethereal notes began to flow gently in the air above the icy sea.

She played with ease, the music touching the heart, as if one were listening to the sea, and gradually felt as if one were lying on the beach bathed in sunlight, feeling both comfortable and at ease.

The Spirit Chef Peak Master, who had just been freezing cold, suddenly felt refreshed and relaxed.

Elder Wu stopped chatting with the peak master of Lingjian Peak and sat down as well.

Then came the others, the Nine Spirits Sect disciples who had previously been below the Spirit Boat.

Fu Changye also glanced at Li Qingqing, his eyes filled with surprise and astonishment.

The Divine Comedy of Light is not easy to play; even Yunyan couldn't play it well.

Or rather, a person whose heart is not pure enough cannot play the Divine Song of Light well.

How did she do it?
