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

You should know that outside, a single pill of these top-grade pills can cause a frenzy of fighting, and a bottle or two can even lead to life-or-death struggles.

The peak master of Lingqin gave him so many top-grade pills, yet his actions were far too casual.

"Patriarch Ming, besides the rare and precious materials for cultivation, could you also help me select some protective magical artifacts? Lan Cen and the others are going to participate in the sect ranking competition, and I hope they can stay safe. Also, they will be participating in the sect's top 100 challenge, so their strength needs to be improved as soon as possible. I hope you can put in some extra effort!"

Li Qingqing added a sentence at the right time.

The name Lan Cen was chosen simply in the hope that the Ming family head, as Lan Cen's uncle, would be more attentive.

Ming Nian naturally understood what Li Qingqing meant and quickly nodded, "Don't worry, Peak Master Lingqin, I'll go right away."

Previously, his impression of Li Qingqing was that she was young and capable and treated her disciples well, but now he truly felt that his nephew had found a good master, who was generous and magnanimous and devoted herself wholeheartedly to her disciples.

When he had something good, he would naturally think of his relatives and friends first, so after informing the people around him, he also notified the Lan family.

The Lan family is most eager for their children to improve their cultivation, and they have plenty of good things to offer. This time, with the internal purchase of spirit talismans and pills, they will definitely prepare more good things.

After leaving next year, Li Qingqing felt a little relieved.

Although Lan Cen's uncle has some ulterior motives, he is still a good person.

Although her soul is now much stronger and protected by the Tranquility Divine Rune, she is less likely to be disturbed by external noises, but she is still not used to the noisy and claustrophobic environment of the auction house.

Hopefully, Patriarch Ming will have better luck and find more good items to help Lan Cen and the others improve their cultivation.

If her apprentices become stronger, she can also advance further!

……

In the training room.

Yao Han was the first to make a breakthrough in his cultivation, which boosted the confidence of the others.

The second person to break through was Wen Yang, who absorbed the Illusionary Fire Crystal.

But no one expected that Lu Tingbai would suddenly vomit blood and faint just as he was breaking through to the next level.

When the others stopped cultivating and sent the person out, Li Qingqing was completely distraught.

Taking Lu Tingbai's pulse, feeding him medicine, and stabilizing his soul kept Li Qingqing extremely busy.

The Ming family head arrived immediately and brought over some spiritual herbs to nourish the dantian.

Lu Tingbai woke up several hours later.

"Are you feeling better?" Li Qingqing asked softly.

Lu Tingbai nodded, "I'm sorry to have worried Master."

"I'm glad you're alright. Were you too impatient when you broke through?" Li Qingqing asked.

Judging from his pulse, the spiritual energy in his body was somewhat turbulent, which caused him to vomit blood and faint.

Lu Tingbai's face paled again after hearing this, and he looked like he wanted to say something but couldn't.

Xia Nanfeng lowered his voice and whispered, "Sixth Junior Brother isn't an impatient person. I have a feeling he's been attacked."

Li Qingqing was taken aback and immediately looked at Lu Tingbai, "Really?"

There were only seven of them in the small training room, and there weren't many who could ignore the barriers of the training room and attack people from a distance.

She quickly came to a guess.

Lu Tingbai took a deep breath, then tapped the dual-space storage ring on his hand with his finger, and then left a message on the message board.

"Master, when I advanced to the mid-stage of the Spirit Division Realm, my spiritual energy became unstable and leaked out. I heard some inappropriate noises from the cultivation room next door. When I tried to withdraw my spiritual energy, I was suddenly attacked..."

Li Qingqing sensed something, glanced at the message board of the Strongest Master-Disciple System, and quickly realized something.

She also asked in the comments section: "Is the cultivation room next door where the Spirit Doctor Peak Master and Bai Xiangling are staying? Are they practicing dual cultivation?"

She asked directly, and Lu Tingbai felt slightly uncomfortable, but he still nodded.

Xia Nanfeng, Qiu Shaoze, and the others who saw the conversation stared wide-eyed in astonishment.

Li Qingqing's eyes darkened slightly. After thinking for a moment, she solemnly wrote on the message board, "In the future, no matter which of you notices the two of them behaving intimately, do not show contempt or surprise. Fu Changye is a vengeful person, and he has at least the cultivation level of the fourth or fifth stage of the Nascent Soul realm. When we are weak, we should avoid him."

It's not that she doesn't want to fight back, but she doesn't have the strength for the time being.

Although Fu Changye's cultivation level had dropped by two realms before, it is highly likely that he has recovered it after cultivating with Bai Xiangling.

Although she possessed the Nascent Soul Sword Qi, she estimated that one or two Nascent Soul Sword Qi wouldn't be enough to kill Fu Changye.

He was chosen by Bai Xiangling, a person favored by fate. He may possess some special magical treasure, which is why even the Pavilion Master of Yihai Pavilion is somewhat wary of him.

It seems the only way to teach Fu Changye a lesson is to assassinate Bai Xiangling.

As Li Qingqing's thoughts were in turmoil, a look of shock flashed across Lu Tingbai's eyes as he heard her thoughts.

Master is actually going to deal with the Spirit Doctor Peak Master for his sake?

His master is so good to him!

"You should rest first. Lan Cen, you stay and take care of him. Also, help me with the deal between you and your uncle. The rest of you come back to the cultivation room with me to continue cultivating," Li Qingqing instructed.

Lan Cen nodded, "Yes, Master."

Li Qingqing led the others back into the cultivation room, but instead of sitting there to cultivate, she took out a whip and lashed it against the wall of the cultivation room with a loud crack.

To outsiders, the walls appear perfectly intact, but the walls that separate the training rooms are actually completely shattered inside.

Afterwards, Li Qingqing put away her whip, sat down on the spot, took out the Flying Snow Zither, and began to play a calming melody.

The sound of the zither traveled out of the small cultivation room through the broken boundary wall, and began to silently affect the room next door.

The two people in the next room who were passionately practicing their love seemed to have been doused with a bucket of ice water. Their enthusiasm was abruptly extinguished, leaving only overwhelming shame and annoyance.

Li Qingqing seemed oblivious, and instructed her disciples, "Tranquility is the great path of cultivation. You must eliminate distracting thoughts and concentrate on your cultivation in order to achieve results."

"Yes, Master." Xia Nanfeng nodded in agreement and continued his cultivation.

The others quickly calmed themselves down and stopped wasting time.

After the calming music ended, Li Qingqing listened quietly to the sounds from next door, calculating Bai Xiangling's location.

Soon, she heard Bai Xiangling's inner complaints.

[Holy crap! He's impotent? He's actually impotent...]

Ugh... this is putting me in this awkward position. Am I supposed to take the initiative...?

Li Qingqing pinpointed Bai Xiangling's location and considered the possibility of using the Divine Transformation Sword Qi to pierce through Bai Xiangling.

As soon as she had the thought of killing, Bai Xiangling screamed.

[Ahhh... System, hurry, hurry, hurry... transfer the killing intent...]

Which bastard wants to kill me...?
