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

Ye Mingyang and his two companions watched with glee as the Qingyun Sect fought amongst themselves.

A second-tier sect is just a second-tier sect; they don't even bother with internal strife. This Qu Xin, she thinks she's so powerful, relying on her mother's position in the Enforcer Association to openly challenge the authority of their Lingyun Sect, running off to some lousy second-tier sect. Of course, what good can a mother who's just a mount raise!

As for Zhong Lingxin, they were somewhat interested. Should they subdue her or become her friends? This was something worth considering.

Qu Xin was so angry with Zhong Lingxin that she trembled.

She already harbored resentment towards Hua Qinglian, and now she had lost face in front of Hua Qinglian.

In an instant, blood rushed to her head, and without thinking, she swung her hand, the Poison Dragon Whip aimed at Zhong Lingxin's face.

Hai Yuan, who was on stage, saw everything clearly and crushed Qu Xin with a single blow: "Internal strife is forbidden!"

He knew perfectly well what was going on. Despite Qu Xin's arrogant attitude, in the Qingyun Sect, Venerable Qingyang was the pillar of stability, far more powerful than her master, Yun Miaomiao.

As for the Qu family that Qu Xin boasts about every day, he knows very well that it is just a second-rate sect of Lingyun Sect, and it only got to this level by relying on her mother as a mount.

Zhong Lingxin was originally planning to slap Qu Xin a few more times, to make her relive the beautiful memories of the past.

Seeing that Senior Brother Haiyuan, who was leading the team, had made a move, she didn't bother with anything else. She glanced coldly at Qu Xin, who was being pressed to the ground, then turned and walked to the other side, keeping a distance from Qu Xin.

Seeing that there was no more excitement to watch, Ye Mingyang and his companions lost interest in standing on the high platform and enjoying the admiration. They said a few words, the gist of which was that as fellow cultivators from the Immortal Spirit Continent, they should help each other in the secret realm, and that the Lingyun Sect would take them to search for treasures in the secret realm, etc.

The Qingyun Sect disciples listening below the stage also lost interest in listening to the lecture. They simply clapped twice, too lazy to even shout a slogan, and adjourned the meeting.

Only Qu Xin, filled with anger and resentment, trembled all over. After returning to her temporary cave in a daze, she remembered that there seemed to be a disciple of her Qu family who was going to enter the secret realm. How could she have forgotten to ask him to help deal with Zhong Lingxin and Hua Qinglian?

Right now, having lost so much face, she didn't have the nerve to go to the Lingyun Sect's headquarters to find that Qu family disciple. She was furious, vaguely remembering that the Qu family disciple was seven or eight years older than her, named Qu Zhihao. That damned Qu Zhihao! He came to the Tianyuan Secret Realm, knew she was here, yet he didn't come to see her, causing her to lose so much face.

Actually, she really wronged Qu Zhihao.

As one of the five major sects, Lingyun Sect arrived the latest. After arriving, they were constantly contacted by various official bodies, leaving him no opportunity to meet Qu Xin alone.

By the time he arrived to see Qu Xin, it was already too late; Qu Xin had already lost face outside the gates of the Tianyuan Secret Realm.

Qu Xin ignored his explanation and just threw a tantrum.

Qu Zhihao stood in front of Qu Xin, listening silently as she scolded him.

He was just a disciple from a collateral branch of the Qu family. Before coming to the secret realm, the clan leader specifically came to find him and asked him to protect Qu Xin's safety after entering the secret realm.

He felt a deep sadness, yet he was powerless to resist.

Even though he knew Qu Xin was no good, he still had to protect her.

Finally, Qu Xin had gone mad enough. She looked coldly at Qu Zhihao and gave an order: "Qu Zhihao, once you enter the secret realm, you must find a way to make Hua Qinglian lose her virginity to you. Then, I will ask the clan leader to arrange for you to marry that slut Hua Qinglian as your Daoist partner."

And Zhong Lingxin, after I've finished my business, you'll ruin her reputation too. Then I'll have my master step in and force her to become your concubine!

Damn it, damn it!

"Those two bitches, I won't let either of them get away with it, not a single one!"

Qu Zhihao was shocked. He had only heard Zhong Lingxin's name today and didn't know what kind of person she was, but he knew Hua Qinglian. She was the closed-door disciple of the Silent Extinction Mahayana sect of their Lingyun Sect, and was extremely favored by the Mahayana sect leader and his disciples. How dare he, an outer disciple, scheme against the disciple of a Mahayana Venerable!

He was so frightened that he shook his hands wildly: "No, no, Miss, this is impossible! I, how could I do such a thing? That Venerable Nirvana, he, he will kill me!"

Qu Xin said coldly, "Are you saying I can't kill you?"

Qu Zhihao was terrified and broke out in a cold sweat. Qu Xin could kill him, and he dared not resist. Neither the collateral branches of the Qu family, nor even the illegitimate sons and daughters of the main family, dared to resist.

Seeing that Qu Zhihao dared not speak, Qu Xin said again, "Don't forget, your whole family is in the Qu family. As long as the matter is settled, I will ask the clan leader to increase your allowance tenfold."

Qu Zhihao stammered, "But I... but I might not be able to beat Hua Qinglian..."

Qu Xin said impatiently, "That's why I asked you to come up with a solution. I just asked her to submit to you, not to kill her! Don't tell me you've never done such a thing before."

Qu Zhihao wanted to say that he hadn't done it, but when he looked up and saw Qu Xin's cold eyes, he swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

Qu Xin sneered. In her previous life, Qu Zhihao had ruined several female disciples of the Lingyun Sect with the Hehuan Pill.

Qu Zhihao thought for a moment and asked Qu Xin, "I don't know Zhong Lingxin."

Qu Xin waved her hand, conjuring up Zhong Lingxin's appearance: "Look, it's her! You little bitch, she's in my team this time when we enter the secret realm. Once my team is assembled, I'll let you know to come and destroy her. Although her spiritual root isn't very good, she has the same fire spiritual root as you, so feel free to drain her resources, haha, it would be best to drain her to death, no, no, leave her with her worthless life, and when you're done playing with her, sell her to the lowest-class brothel."

Qu Zhihao quietly lowered his head. This Zhong Lingxin was really not good-looking; too ordinary, barely deserving the description of pretty. It was really strange. Which cultivator didn't have a fair complexion, red lips, bright eyes, and white teeth? Yet her skin was dark and yellow, her hair was dry and yellow, and she was wearing a loose-fitting blue Daoist robe, making it impossible to even discern her figure. Only her eyes were dark and bright, giving her a bit of spirit.

It's no wonder that Zhong Lingxin was like this. Before leaving the sect, she specially picked a few pieces of ebony and added them to her usual medicinal bath, turning herself into someone with dark yellow skin and dry yellow hair.

Therefore, she proudly told her master that as a junior disciple of a second-tier sect, the less attention she attracted, the better. Let the disciples of the major sects handle the glamorous, dazzling, and eye-catching matters.

She prioritized safety and simply worked discreetly.

Once again, Venerable Qingyang was amused by his disciple's unusual words and actions.

Moreover, he quickly accepted his apprentice's words and actions.

There's nothing wrong with being careful.

He prepared ample resources for Xiaoxin'er; other masters must also prepare ample resources for their disciples.

The less attention his little secrets attract, the better.
