Chapter 35: Let’s Collect the Draft First
In a small town belonging to the Qinglian Sect.
At this moment, a beggar was lying on the ground, his face completely pale.
He seemed to be cursed recently.
Not only was he weak all over…
But he also felt a strange agitation inside, almost like he wanted to throw up.
Especially when he saw pills, he felt like hurling.
“What’s wrong with me?”
Shi Changxin was somewhat confused.
Why did he feel so nauseated by pills?
Especially after catching a whiff of their scent…
He felt even more queasy.
At that moment, a small snake slowly slithered to Shi Changxin’s feet.
The little snake raised its head and spoke.
“Shi Changxin, after the Skyfire Secret Realm opens, that disciple named Liu Shunyi will also go there. Seize the opportunity!”
Glancing at the little snake, Shi Changxin nodded.
“Remember, you must retrieve the Blood Puppet Master’s storage bag, and it must be returned intact!”
Shi Changxin nodded again.
The snake looked at him with some confusion.
“What’s wrong with you?”
Shi Changxin shook his head.
“I don’t really know; I just feel a bit weak… and I get nauseous at the sight of pills!”
The little snake: “…”
“Alright, remember to seize the opportunity. As for the other elders of Qinglian Sect, you needn’t worry; Qingteng will create opportunities for you.”
Shi Changxin nodded.
The little snake twisted its body and then left.
Shi Changxin helplessly leaned against the wall.
The feelings of discomfort and agitation surged again.
“Damn it, what’s going on with me?”
Shi Changxin was extremely irritable.
He planned to go out for a walk.
But suddenly…
He spotted someone.
“Liu Shunyi!”
Shi Changxin’s eyes lit up.
Just as he was about to approach, he noticed Ji Suying next to Liu Shunyi.
He quickly ducked away.
“Damn it, how could she be with Liu Shunyi? One an Inner Disciple and the other an Outer Disciple! How could these two even walk together?!”
Shi Changxin’s expression turned sour.
However, his gaze never left Liu Shunyi.
At the same time, he quickly sent a message to his superiors.
……
……
Liu Shunyi felt a bit helpless too.
He originally wanted to focus on Foundation Establishment.
After all, he had the technique, the Foundation Establishment items, and the Foundation Establishment pills.
He had everything he needed.
But Ji Suying, for some unknown reason, insisted on dragging him out shopping.
“Senior Sister, you have everything at Qinglian Sect, why do you need to come down the mountain to buy these things, and they are all mundane items!”
Liu Shunyi asked with disbelief.
Ji Suying smiled.
“Although we are high-level practitioners, we should distance ourselves from the mundane, but if we don’t venture into the mundane, how can we transcend it?”
“I grew up on the mountain; everything I’ve seen and heard has been about cultivation. I’ve never set foot in the mundane world, and that’s a flaw for me!”
Liu Shunyi nodded.
What Ji Suying said made a lot of sense.
It was rare to find a practitioner as clear-minded as her.
No wonder Ji Suying was an Inner Disciple.
But Liu Shunyi still didn’t understand.
“But why do I have to accompany you?”
Ji Suying shot him an annoyed glance.
“There are many disciples who want to accompany me; I chose you, so be happy about it! Why are you acting like you’re so important? What’s the matter, do you have a death wish?”
As she said this, Ji Suying raised her sword hilt, pretending to smack Liu Shunyi on the head.
Liu Shunyi quickly begged for mercy.
“Senior Sister, I was wrong! Please don’t hit me!”
Ji Suying snorted.
But she didn’t actually hit him.
Then the two continued shopping.
Ji Suying occasionally picked up hair ornaments, comparing them to her hair, and asked Liu Shunyi if they looked good.
“Look good, look good!”
“What about this one?”
“Look good, look good!”
“And this one?”
“Look good, look good!”
Ji Suying was getting annoyed.
“You didn’t even look!”
“Ah? I did! Really!”
Ji Suying shot him a glare.
“Then tell me, what looks good about them?”
Liu Shunyi scratched his head.
“Senior Sister, you look like a celestial being, so anything you wear looks good!”
Ji Suying felt a bit deflated.
“Alright, this street isn’t really interesting.”
Liu Shunyi quickly asked, “So, shall we head back?”
Ji Suying rolled her eyes.
“Shunyi!”
“Huh?”
Ji Suying said with a slightly serious tone, “Actually, I didn’t come down just to shop today!”
Liu Shunyi’s expression grew tense.
“What is it, Senior Sister?”
Ji Suying didn’t respond.
Instead, she headed towards a large courtyard in the town.
Once inside the courtyard, a bunch of servants bowed.
Ji Suying waved her hand.
Finally, she led Liu Shunyi to the main hall of the courtyard.
“Have a seat!”
Ji Suying said.
Liu Shunyi nodded and casually sat on the side.
Meanwhile, Ji Suying took a sip of tea before speaking.
“Shunyi, do you know that the cultivation world might not be peaceful in the future?”
Liu Shunyi shook his head. “No idea!”
Ji Suying nearly choked on her tea.
After putting the cup down, she continued. “That’s normal, but let me tell you first: there may be some turmoil in the cultivation world in the future. On a grand scale, we should be ready for the world; on a smaller scale, we need to protect our own sect, right?”

Liu Shunyi scratched his head.
“Senior Sister, what kind of upheaval are you talking about?”
Ji Suying shook her head. “I don’t know!”
Liu Shunyi: “…”
“Wait a second…”
Liu Shunyi couldn’t take it anymore.
“Senior Sister, why don’t we wrap up your draft first? Just cut to the chase and tell me what you want me to do!”
Ji Suying cleared her throat.
Then she put away her draft.
“It’s like this: in the upcoming chaos, someone will need to end this great disaster. But right now, we urgently need a Golden Core Pill to break through to the Golden Core stage. So, Junior Brother, for the sect and for the world, can I ask you to help refine one pill?”
Liu Shunyi looked at Ji Suying in disbelief.
“Senior Sister, if you have such a request next time, you can just say it directly. No need for this roundabout way. But right now, my strength isn’t enough to refine a fourth-grade pill. Maybe I can give it a shot once I reach Foundation Establishment!”
“Alright!”
Seeing Liu Shunyi agree, Ji Suying felt relieved.
“However, I didn’t bring you out just for this.”
“Do you know why I didn’t let you break through to Foundation Establishment?”
Liu Shunyi was genuinely confused this time.
Ji Suying sighed.
“In order to enter the Foundation Establishment stage, you need a Foundation Establishment ground. The better the foundation ground, the higher the success rate, and the more solid the foundation!”
“While the sect’s Foundation Establishment Spirit Pool is good, it can’t compare to the innate Foundation Establishment ground in the secret realms.”
“This time in the Skyfire Secret Realm, there’s a Nine Spirit Dao Platform. Establishing a foundation there may allow you to transform your root once more; for you, that’s the best place to establish your foundation!”
Hearing this, Liu Shunyi finally understood.
“Thank you, Senior Sister, for the guidance!”
Ji Suying waved her hand.
“One more thing, let me see the Blood Puppet Master’s storage bag.”
