Oh no, I accidentally cultivated three spiritual roots and became an empress!

She is now a minor cultivator at the tenth level of Qi Refining.

Actually, she believes she could be even more demanding and improve even faster.

Xuan Yuan, who was watching from outside the Four Seasons Formation, happily took out his wine gourd and took a big gulp.

Xiaoxin'er is too clever; she discovered the secret of the Four Seasons Formation so quickly and knows that it can also be used for body tempering.

If only I knew it could also temper one's divine sense.

But it doesn't matter, Xiaoxin'er's Phoenix Zither technique can also temper her divine sense.

Xuan Yuan thought to himself with delight, "Qing Yang has a really good eye; he took in such a talented disciple right away."

At this moment, Venerable Qingyang had already entered the top floor of the Law Enforcement Association building and was cornering Feng Yu in his office, punching Feng Yu in the head repeatedly.

This was the third time Feng Yu had been beaten by Qingyang Venerable Saint. The first two times were a thousand years ago, so long ago that he had almost forgotten how hard Qingyang Venerable Saint's fists were.

Qingyang Venerable Saint threw punch after punch, only focusing on pounding down, never explaining why he was hitting, nor allowing President Feng Yu to inquire about the reason for being beaten.

Feng Yu tried to get up several times, but his spiritual power was sealed by Qingyang Venerable Saint, so he could only desperately dodge Qingyang Venerable Saint's fists.

He bitterly recalled when he had offended the Venerable Qingyang once again in the past thousand years.

He thought and thought, but he still couldn't come up with a solution.

He had been traumatized by Qingyang Venerable Saint twice before, and honestly, he hadn't dared to provoke Qingyang Venerable Saint in the past thousand years.

Others were unaware of Qingyang Venerable Saint's strength and only regarded him as a Tribulation Transcending cultivator from a second-rate sect.

He knew that when he was still in the Mahayana stage, Venerable Qingyang had killed a Transcendental cultivator. This freak just liked to keep a low profile; his cultivation level couldn't be classified by rank at all.

Finally, Venerable Qingyang stopped, shook his wrist, stood up, kicked Feng Yu, and shouted, "Get up!"

Feng Yu struggled to his feet and found that he could now circulate his spiritual energy.

He dared not use his spiritual power to fight against Qingyang Venerable Saint, and only cursed in grief and anger: "Lu Zichen, don't think I'm afraid of you. If you don't give me an explanation today, my Law Enforcement Association's defensive array is not to be trifled with. I will risk my life to activate the array and kill you."

Qingyang Venerable Saint glanced at him coldly: "Keep your mount in check. I can ignore children playing house. But if your mount dares to interfere, I'll wipe you out too."

Feng Yu blushed.

Even though he's a womanizer, he still has some sense of shame, okay?

Upon hearing the children playing house, he immediately thought of his only descendant, Qu Xin, who had followed Qu Yao into the Qu family.

He couldn't help but slump his shoulders. Qu Yao clung to him tightly, caring for him the most.

He hadn't paid much attention to Qu Yao at first, but what could he do when Qu Yao had given birth to his only child?

He only had one child, so of course he wanted to give her the best.

Sigh, Qu Yao, and the Qu family, have benefited a lot over the years because of Qu Xin. Qu Yao followed him into the Law Enforcer Association, and the Qu family has become a family of moderate size in the Lingyun Sect.

He also knew how much Qu Yao and the Qu family spoiled Qu Xin.

He had always thought that with his status as Feng Yu, the president of the Law Enforcer Association, and the backing of the number one family in the Immortal Spirit Continent, it was fine to spoil his only daughter a little.

However, he was afraid of that bastard Lu Zichen, who was ruthless and cold-blooded, yet remained calm and collected on the surface, and would seize any opportunity to give him a good beating.

Seeing that Feng Yu understood, Qingyang Venerable Saint stopped talking, and with a flash, he left the Law Enforcer Association building and walked into the city streets.

Given his quiet nature, it's not easy for him to come out, so he should bring back some good things for his young apprentice.

It must be said that his little apprentice has suffered quite a bit these past few years, wearing only a few disciple robes that he changes from one to another, and not having many nice dharma robes.

Xuan Yuan even bought several robes for his little apprentice. As the master, he never bought a single nice robe for his apprentice.

The headquarters of the Law Enforcers Association, the Alchemists Association, the Weapon Refiners Association, as well as the headquarters of the Talisman and Array Masters, the Loose Cultivator Alliance, and the Chamber of Commerce are all located in Qingling City.

This gave Qingling City a transcendent status in the Immortal Spirit Continent, making it the largest and most prosperous cultivation city on the Immortal Spirit Continent, and it was not under the jurisdiction of any sect.

Several major associations frequently hold various events in Qingling City, such as competitions in the Four Arts, exchange meetings on various resources organized by the Chamber of Commerce, black markets, and large-scale auctions...

Qingyang Venerable Saint entered the largest auction house in Qingling City and took out a ninth-grade defensive array.

Whenever he needed spirit stones, he would sell a defensive array, for which his apprentices utterly despised him.

The master and disciple even had a discussion about this.

His view is that cultivators should focus on cultivation, and all other resources are secondary.

His disciple's viewpoint was: first, agree with his own perspective, then launch into a long, rambling explanation of the need to acquire more resources, to be more perceptive and astute—in short, to build his own power. The purpose of all this, he claimed, was for the sake of spiritual cultivation, euphemistically calling it "sharpening the knife before cutting."

I'm very happy that my apprentice accepted my point of view, and he accepted my apprentice's point of view.

But as he took out an array plate to auction, the image of his disciple excitedly gesturing with his hands as he held up a large pile of spirit stones flashed before his eyes.

Alas, he was a poor cultivator, so poor that he made a living by selling array plates.

My apprentice is in such a sorry state now, he can't even afford to sell a formation plate.

Perhaps he could help his apprentice with something, like opening a shop.

Qingyang Venerable Saint, who had sold an array plate to his disciple to buy resources, returned to his Qingyang Cave with a bunch of magic robes and magic treasures that his disciple could use. He was greeted by Xuan Yuan's delighted face.

He was a little puzzled.

He remembered that when he left the sect, Xuan Yuan was left behind to guard the house, which lengthened his already long dragon face.

Why are you all smiles now?

Xuan Yuan had long forgotten his anger from before. He pulled Qingyang Venerable Saint to the front of the Four Seasons Formation and looked at Zhong Lingxin, who was being tortured in the formation: "Zi Chen, you have good eyes. Look, Xiaoxin'er has already learned that the Four Seasons Formation can refine the body, and she is practicing it with great enthusiasm."

After watching for a while, Venerable Qingyang shook his head: "Xiaoxin'er hasn't discovered that the Four Seasons Formation has the function of tempering the body. She just got tougher from being thrown around in the formation so much that she wanted to be even tougher. It was just a lucky accident."

Xuan Yuan felt a pang of frustration; in fact, he felt the same way.

After a long while, he said, "Why don't you just tell her that the Four Seasons Array can temper the body?"

Qingyang Venerable Saint shook his head: "She's fine as she is. The Four Seasons Array can temper the body, but there's no specific method for it. Let her temper herself however she can. Prepare some more spiritual medicine for her body tempering and have her take several medicinal baths."
