Fairy, help me practice

　Is that the Ten Thousand Year Cold Essence Sword Embryo that can only be refined in the late Nascent Soul stage?

　These treasures are rare treasures that can be used to refine top-grade elixirs!

　Her eyes rolled around and she clenched and unclenched her hands.

　Yun Li glanced at her and said with a bit of pride, "Junior Sister Jiang, please forgive me for making fun of you. My junior brother finally got all these useless things, but he wants to show them off to everyone he meets. Why don't you put them away quickly? Don't be embarrassed."

　She glanced at Chen Yao, but her eyes were full of smiles.

　Chen Yao put them away with a smile: "How about it, Senior Sister? Can these things be made into a sword?"

　Yun Li nodded: "Of course you can. However, I'm afraid those swindling rubbish in the market won't work. You have to find a skilled weapon refiner."

　Chen Yao was stunned.

　With the jury trial approaching, where can I find a highly skilled weapon refiner?

　"Uh... that..."

　Jiang Bailian raised his hand timidly: "I know a skilled weapon refiner, but he is my uncle."

　Yun Li pondered for a moment, then her eyes lit up: "Junior Sister Jiang, are you talking about the Venerable Lianjiang Jiang Wuyin?"

　Jiang Bailian nodded embarrassedly: "It's my uncle."

　Yun Li explained to Chen Yao, "Junior Sister Jiang comes from the Jiang family, Jiujiang's premier immortal cultivation clan. Her uncle, Venerable Lianjiang, is arguably one of the best weapon refiners in the South China Sea. He's been incredibly talented since childhood. At the age of 360, he transformed all nine of Jiujiang County's major rivers into a powerful offensive and defensive formation, solidifying the Jiang family's status and earning him the title of Venerable Lianjiang."

　As she spoke, she looked at Jiang Bailian and said, "Junior Sister Jiang, are you sure that Venerable Lian Jiang will refine the sword for you?"

　Jiang Bailian looked at Chen Yao and nodded: "OK."

　With such good material, the old man was begging for him to refine it!

　Thinking about it, she added, "However, my uncle has a strange temper... and his tastes are somewhat special. I'm afraid that the immortal sword he refines won't meet my junior brother's expectations."

　Chen Yao waved his hands repeatedly: "Such a master, no matter what form he becomes, I like him!"

　You are already so tall, why do you need a bicycle?

　Jiang Bailian smiled sweetly: "In that case, I happen to be going back to my family tomorrow, and you can come with me."

　"tomorrow?"

　Yun Li frowned and looked at Chen Yao with some reluctance.

　She immediately became alert. Ever since she came back from Bibotan, she seemed to have become more and more dependent on her junior brother... This was not only unhelpful to her cultivation, but also hindered her junior brother's experience.

　Thinking of this, she nodded quickly: "Tomorrow is tomorrow. Junior Brother, on the way, ask Senior Sister Jiang more questions about the Dao of Alchemy. Don't waste such a good opportunity."

　Chen Yao nodded: "Thank you for your help, Senior Sister Jiang."

　Jiang Bailian quickly waved his hands: "No trouble, no trouble."

　She couldn't help but laugh.

　After the old man has toyed with these treasures, there will definitely be some materials left, which will be more than enough for refining pills!

　Oh, I'm so smart!

　So, after agreeing on the departure time for the next day, Jiang Bailian stood up and said goodbye.

　Yun Li waited for her to leave, lifted up the Taoist robe wrapped around her plump body, and glanced at Chen Yao.

　"This girl might have bad intentions towards you. Protect yourself on the road and don't let her take advantage of you!"

Chapter 97 Jiang's Weird Attitude

　The next morning, Chen Yao flew to Jiujiang with Jiang Bailian.

　With Jiang Bailian's flying speed, he was bound to crash into things along the way.

　Chen Yao tried his best to catch up, but he was terrified.

　But the advantage is that their speed is indeed much faster than ordinary flying, and they can cover a distance of nearly ten thousand miles in a short time.

　"The Jiujiang River is right below."

　Jiang Bailian was still wearing a white shirt and white pants, white stockings inside the pants, and silver high-heeled sandals, with her heels and toes perfectly showing off her pinkness.

　She waved her sleeves and motioned Chen Yao to look down.

　Chen Yao looked down and found that the land was vast. Nine rivers as long as dragons and as smooth as satin were winding and protecting the lush land. In the sunlight, the rivers looked like they were forged from gold and were extremely dazzling.

　“What a great place.”

　He sighed unconsciously.

　Jiang Bailian smiled and said, "However, Xiaoyao, you are not allowed to mention these nine rivers or the formation in front of your uncle."

　Chen Yao was stunned for a moment: "Why?"

　Jiang Bailian just shook his head without further explanation: "Just remember it."

　As they were talking, the two of them arrived at the middle section of the Qingming River.

　"The Jiang family's residence is below. Junior Brother Chen, please come in."

　Jiang Bailian pressed down the bow of the flying boat and crashed straight down.

　Amidst the loud bang, there was thunderous cheering from below.

　Chen Yao was stunned for a moment, not knowing what was going on, and quickly flew down.

　Jiang Bailian's flying boat crashed into a huge round target, hitting the bull's eye.

　She herself had been helped out of the rubble by the female cultivators in her family.

　It turned out that the Jiang family members had received the news that she would be back and had been waiting here for a long time.

　"Xiao Lianlian, you haven't been home for more than ten years! You've become even more beautiful!"

　"Lian'er's accuracy has improved a lot! Look, he hit the bull's eye..."

　"Have you ever been appointed the head of the alchemy room? Have you ever found someone you like who is a good match for you?"

　……

　A group of Jiang family members, including aunts and uncles, surrounded Jiang Bailian and made a lot of noise.

　On the periphery are some men, young and old.

　It seems that Jiang Bailian is also a very popular figure in the clan.

　However, these Jiang clan members clearly saw Chen Yao drop his flying sword, but no one came up to greet him or say hello.

　Fortunately, Jiang Bailian broke free from the siege of the gossips and came to Chen Yao.

　"Dear elders, brothers and sisters, this person is called Chen Yao, a junior fellow apprentice of Han Yufeng of the sect, and has a life-or-death relationship with Bai Lian."

　Chen Yao didn't expect her to say the word "life" and smiled at her.

　Jiang Bailian also smiled back on his dazed face.

　Chen Yao glanced around and could clearly feel the discomfort and slight hostility on the faces of the Jiang family members.

　How is this going?

　Don’t the Jiang clan members like to see Jiang Bailian having a close relationship with men outside the clan?

　At this time, a gorgeously dressed female cultivator came up, looked Chen Yao up and down, and curled her lips.

　"Hey, judging by the way he's dressed and his figure, he seems quite capable... Bro, can you refine weapons?"

　Chen Yao shook his head.

　"Then can you make puppets?"

　Chen Yao still shook his head.

　Jiang Bailian refused to give in: "Aunt! Why are you questioning a guest like this? He has a high talent for alchemy."

　The female cultivator looked at Chen Yao again and sneered, "No matter how high he is, can he be higher than our Bai Lian? So, young man, are you willing to leave the sect and marry into our Jiang family?"

　Chen Yao was a little annoyed: "I just want to see Venerable Lian Jiang for something, I have no other intentions, and I am not here for a blind date."

　The female cultivator chuckled and looked at him again with her eyes rolled up: "I believe you should have this self-awareness!"

　After saying that, she walked away with her hips shaking.

　Jiang Bailian bit her lip and apologized to Chen Yao: "Junior Brother Chen, I'm sorry, my family..."

　Chen Yao waved his hand: "I need help from others. Besides, Senior Sister is a beautiful lady, and it is only natural that her family is so worried about her."

　Jiang Bailian nodded, blushing and lowering her head, she whispered, "I can make the decision on marriage myself..."

　"What?" Chen Yao didn't hear clearly.

　Jiang Bailian raised his head and smiled at him: "It's nothing."

　"Bai Lian, why don't you invite the guests down?"

　In the crowd, an old man with gray hair but neatly combed in fine clothes stepped out and bowed to Chen Yao.

　"There is a loss and a welcome from afar."

　His expression was also very cold.

　Chen Yao thought that the Jiang family was quite powerful, and wondered if Ling Ning would receive the same treatment if she came.

　"Bai Lian, why don't you go and pay respects to the clan leader? I will entertain the guests."

　The old man scolded Jiang Bailian and gestured for Chen Yao to go to the other side.

　Jiang Bailian nodded to him: "I have paid my respects to my great-grandfather and now I am here to see you."

　Chen Yao followed the old man to a small courtyard.

　"The Jiang family has a small territory but a large population, so we are neglectful."

　The old man assigned a few servants and was about to leave.

　"Senior, I wonder when I can pay a visit to Venerable Lian Jiang?"

　Chen Yao asked.

　The old man frowned and replied indifferently, "Wuyin has been in seclusion recently, so I can't say for sure."

　After saying this, he left.

　Chen Yao was quite upset, but after all he needed help from someone, so he had no choice but to tap the table with his index finger while waiting for Jiang Bailian to come over before making any plans.

　Night soon fell, and the evening breeze blew in through the window, bringing with it the sounds of a noisy party in the mansion.

　Chen Yao felt like he was forgotten in a corner. He became impatient and stood up and walked out the door.

　Unexpectedly, several servants blocked the door.

　"What do you mean?"

　Chen Yao raised his eyebrows.

　The servants said with a forced smile: "Sir, our yard is big, it's better not to go out, be careful not to get lost..."

　Chen Yao recalled Jiang's strange attitude and felt that something was increasingly wrong.

　He glanced at the servants, who stared back at him without fear.

　He smiled and nodded: "That makes sense."

　He stretched out his hand, controlled the spiritual energy, and caught several flying insects, silently reciting the spell to transform the insects into Gu.

　The flying insects turned into a few wisps of black and purple smoke in the palm of his hand.

　Chen Yao reached out and patted the shoulders of several servants.

　Purple-black smoke penetrated their bodies.

　The servants didn't know what was going on, and asked Chen Yao to go back to his room with a forced smile.

　"The guest should follow the host's wishes. Young master, please don't act on your own... Ouch!"

　The servant said nothing and was slapped by Chen Yao, falling to the ground.

　"Who do you think you are to boss me around?"

　The servants immediately started to make a lot of noise, surrounded Chen Yao, and took out communication tools from their arms.

　But just as they were about to activate the magic weapon, they all trembled and fell to the ground.
