After conquering the Empress, I proved my Dao with the Heaven and Earth Spirit Furnace!

Yin Jiaojiao was slightly taken aback and asked in surprise, "Brother Qin, you saw everything just now?"

"Ah."

Qin Chuan smiled and nodded: "I've been here for a while now, and I wanted to see how you would handle it."

"You're doing very well; your cultivation has reached the third level of the Profound Realm. Your progress has been quite rapid."

Hearing Qin Chuan's words, Yin Jiaojiao blushed slightly and said shyly, "Brother Qin, please don't tease me. I know I'm not very talented..."

Before she could finish speaking, Qin Chuan interrupted, "What I said is true, you really have great talent."

To have reached this level in such a short time, one's future is truly limitless.

Seeing Qin Chuan's serious expression, Yin Jiaojiao looked up, a glimmer of hope in her eyes, "Really?"

Qin Chuan nodded and said seriously, "Really."

Hearing this, Yin Jiaojiao smiled happily, her eyes filled with longing for the future.

Seeing this, Qin Chuan sighed inwardly.

He understood that the other party wanted to cultivate as soon as possible and then go to the Hundred Flowers Sect to rescue his mother.

"correct."

Qin Chuan continued, "You still haven't told me why you can't say my name?"

Yin Jiaojiao hesitated for a moment, then said, "I'm worried that calling out Brother Qin's name will cause you trouble..."

Upon hearing this, Qin Chuan was taken aback, never expecting this to be the reason.

A warm feeling welled up inside me.

"Next time you encounter this situation, if my name is useful, you must mention it."

Qin Chuan said seriously, "I'm not afraid of trouble. If there is trouble, I will solve it!"

"Ah."

Yin Jiaojiao nodded vigorously, "I understand, Brother Qin!"

"That's good."

Immediately, Qin Chuan walked to the spot where the three people had been, picked up all their storage rings, and then returned to hand them to Yin Jiaojiao.

"These things are for you."

As he spoke, Qin Chuan handed over the storage ring.

Seeing this, Yin Jiaojiao quickly shook her head and said, "Brother Qin, I can't accept this. You should need these more."

Qin Chuan smiled and said, "These things are not very useful to me, but they are of great help to your current level."

There are also three contribution points inside, which you can exchange for suitable cultivation techniques and martial arts skills at the Cultivation Technique Pavilion.

"By the way, the old man guarding the cultivation technique pavilion is named Gu Lao. If you have any questions later, just tell him my name, and he will definitely help you."

“But…” Yin Jiaojiao still hesitated.

"Stop it."

Qin Chuan laughed and said, "Aren't you eager to improve your strength so you can save your mother?"

Yin Jiaojiao was taken aback, and said with a downcast expression, "Brother Qin, you know everything?"

Qin Chuan patted Yin Jiaojiao's head and comforted her, "It's okay. Instructor Guan said that your mother is not in any immediate danger."

And when I have the ability, I will definitely help you rescue your mother!

"really?"

Upon hearing Qin Chuan's words, Yin Jiaojiao's eyes reddened, and tears welled up in them.

"must!"

Qin Chuan nodded vigorously.

As Qin Zhantian's biological daughter, Yin Jiaojiao should help him out of gratitude for being raised.

"correct!"

As if he had just thought of something, Qin Chuan slapped his forehead and then took out a hairpin from his storage ring.

"I left the sect for a while before, and I thought I'd bring you some little trinkets."

This hairpin is called Daisy; it's a little gift for you.

Seeing the hairpin in Qin Chuan's hand, Yin Jiaojiao was stunned and fell silent.

"What? Don't like it?"

Seeing Yin Jiaojiao acting out of character, Qin Chuan quickly asked.

"No."

Yin Jiaojiao's eyes reddened slightly as she asked, moved, "Brother Qin, why are you so good to me?"

Hearing this, Qin Chuan was stunned for a moment. He couldn't very well say it was because of his relationship with Qin Zhantian.

After a moment of silence, Qin Chuan smiled and said, "The first time I met you, I felt a sense of closeness to you. I've always treated you like my own little sister, so of course I'll be nice to you."

"Just my younger sister..."

Upon hearing this, a fleeting look of melancholy crossed Yin Jiaojiao's eyes.

Unaware of this detail, Qin Chuan smiled and said, "Let's go back to Falling Leaf Peak."

"Mmm!" Yin Jiaojiao nodded vigorously, hiding her innermost thoughts.

Before long, the two returned directly to Fallen Leaf Peak.

Yin Jiaojiao claimed she wasn't feeling well and went back to her room first, while Qin Chuan went to Guan Yueyue's main hall.

"come in!"

Just as Qin Chuan was about to knock on the door, Guan Yueyue's voice came from inside.

"Crench!"

Pushing open the palace door, Qin Chuan approached Guan Yueyue and gave a slight bow, saying, "Instructor Guan."

Guan Yueyue nodded and looked at Qin Chuan, "Sit!"

Qin Chuan sat down in front of Guan Yueyue.

Guan Yueyue smiled and said, "Your injuries should be healed by now, right? As soon as Jiaojiao found out you were injured, she asked me for some medicine and rushed off to find you."

Jiaojiao, that girl…

Hearing Guan Yueyue's words, Qin Chuan smiled helplessly and finally understood why Yin Jiaojiao was there.

After a moment, Qin Chuan shook his head and said, "It's all over now."

Immediately, Qin Chuan gave a brief account of what had happened during this period.

After hearing Qin Chuan's words, Guan Yueyue's face was full of murderous intent, and she snorted coldly, "It seems that Lu Mingzhi has no desire to live, actually asking the Green Dragon Gang of Fire Flame City to attack you."

Qin Chuan smiled and said, "There's no need for Instructor Guan to intervene. Now that I'm back in the sect, I have plenty of time to play with him."

“Well, since you put it that way, then I’ll get involved in your affairs,” Guan Yueyue replied.

Qin Chuan nodded.

Seemingly remembering something, Guan Yueyue said in a deep voice, "The Cangyu Cave is about to open, so you'd better not run around during this time."

"And I've also heard something else: Ding Tao, who's ranked number one on the Heavenly Ranking, seems to have emerged from seclusion and is inquiring about you."

"Ding Tao..."

Qin Chuan narrowed his eyes and muttered to himself.

After a moment's thought, Qin Chuan asked, "Instructor Guan, is this Ding Tao very strong?"

Guan Yueyue thought for a moment, then said, "I don't know much about this person, but he is one of the few who can learn the Sword Peak Secret Technique."

The Sword Peak Secret Technique is extremely lethal, even capable of attacking opponents of higher levels, so you'd better be careful.

Hearing this, Qin Chuan nodded and said, "Okay, I understand."

Seeing that Qin Chuan had not yet left, Guan Yueyue frowned slightly and asked in confusion, "Is there something else?"

Qin Chuan scratched his head and smiled, "When I had some free time in Fire Flame City, I picked out a gift for you, my mentor."

As he spoke, he took out a light blue hairpin and handed it to Guan Yueyue.

"Okay, I understand. You can keep it." Guan Yueyue nodded slightly, her face expressionless.

Qin Chuan stood up, bowed, and just as he reached the door, he suddenly turned around and said, "Thank you, Instructor Guan, for taking care of Jiao Jiao these past few days. And was the person in the forest earlier also an instructor?"

After saying that, he turned and left.

"Such powerful divine sense! It actually detected me..."

Watching Qin Chuan's departing figure, Guan Yueyue's pupils shrank, and a look of shock appeared on her face.
