Chapter 113 - 113: Sect Selection_l
In the following months, a new wave of Qin Changqing’s grandchildren were born!
[Ding- The total number of family members has reached 100, rewarded with 100 Life Extension Pills and 100 years of vocational experience improvement.]
“Finally 100 people, not easy at all.”
Qin Changqing revealed a smile on his face as he looked at the system prompt.
“The old man said that the Duanjian Mountain Secret Realm is extremely dangerous, and I should increase my strength as soon as possible. The Golden Elixir Realm should be fine, but it’s still not very safe.”
Qin Changqing touched his chin.
He originally wanted to continue alchemy.
But the use of array formations is more significant for him right now.
“Let’s choose elixirs next time.” After hesitating for a moment, Qin Changqing still added the vocational experience to the array formation.
[Your array formation experience has increased.]
He immediately opened the panel and found that his level had changed from third-order high-grade to fourth-order mid-level.
“Tsk- It seems that I don’t really have any talent in array formations.” A hundred years of experience couldn’t even get him to the next major level. Looking at this situation, if it weren’t for the system providing experience, his own cultivation in array formation would probably not have improved to the fourth level in a hundred years.
Luckily, there are array formations. “Give birth! Keep giving birth!”
Qin Changqing thought secretly.
At this moment, Su Xiaoyue walked over.
“Husband, there is a woman outside the mansion who said she was looking for you.”
“Looking for me? Who is it?” Qin Changqing didn’t care, as there were many beautiful women looking for him these days.
“She said her name is Mu Ling and she’s from Luoyun Peak.”
Mu Ling?
Who?
He didn’t know her.
Qin Changqing racked his brains but couldn’t figure out who this person named Mu Ling was.
However, he knew about Luoyun Peak, as it was a place where array formation fanatics went.
The array formations and alchemy of Lingxiao Sect were famous throughout
Tianchuan State.
The strongest in alchemy was Lu Jingtian, who was said to be at the fourth-order high-grade level, but Qin Changqing had once heard from the old man that Lu Jingtian could already refine tier 5 elixirs.
As for array formations, they were in Luoyun Peak. The peak master was called Mu Taixu, a tier 5 array formation … huh? Wait a minute.
Mu Taixu.
Mu Ling.
Qin Changqing leaned back tactically.
Could these two have any relation?
Although Qin Changqing had been in the sect for twenty years, he had spent most of his time at Xuanyi Peak. After all, just Xuanyi Peak’s main peak and the neighboring secondary peak were enough for Qin Changqing to explore maps everywhere.
He rarely left Xuanyi Peak, so he wasn’t too familiar with the situation on other peaks.
But if that’s really the case, what is a peak master’s daughter looking for him for?
It couldn’t possibly be that she was throwing herself at him, right?
Qin Changqing shook his head secretly and had someone bring Mu Ling to the main hall for tea and a meeting.
When he arrived at the main hall, he saw a woman standing there, looking around.
The woman had a sword in her left hand, wearing a yellow dress and her black hair was draped over her back.
She had a tall and slender figure, exquisite and curvy. Her chest was supported by a tight bra, and her waist was tied with a belt at just the right height. The tassel of the belt pressed against her skirt, sparkling and not ordinary.
When she noticed someone approaching, she turned around.
Those bright black eyes were captivating.
Staring at Qin Changqing.
“Brother Qin?” The woman’s tone carried a hint of doubt. It was obvious that she didn’t recognize Qin Changqing.
“Yes, it’s me. And you are?”
“My name is Mu Ling, Mu Ling from Luoyun Peak.” “So you are Peak Master Mu’s…””lt’s my father.”
That’s really it, huh.
Qin Changqing was somewhat surprised as Mu Ling looked young, and Mu Taixu must be at least five hundred years old, right?
Was she a late-born daughter?
But it wasn’t strange in the world of cultivation.
“What can I do for you, Junior Sister Mu?” Qin Changqing asked.
Mu Ling was straightforward, stating her purpose.
“I’ve been studying Tier 3 high-level array formations in seclusion, but unfortunately, I failed. When I came out of seclusion, my father told me, Brother Qin, that you have a high level of achievement in array formations and an extremely remarkable talent. So, I came over.” “Brother Qin, I want to learn array formations from you!”
Mu Ling said, her eyes sparkling.
Qin Changqing was taken aback, thinking that if this girl had a dueling disk in hand, she would undoubtedly be a perfect match.
However, he couldn’t believe that a dignified Peak Master would pay attention to him and even send his daughter to find him. How broad-minded was he!?
Didn’t he know that Qin Changqing was a… oops! A romantic?
“Array formations, huh.” Qin Changqing touched his chin, “I do know a little bit about them. But I’ve been really busy lately. How about you stay at the Qin family for a while, and after I’m done with my work, we can have a discussion?” Mu Ling said, “Learning array formations shouldn’t take too long.”
“I know, but I’m really too busy.” Qin Changqing sighed, “Junior Sister Mu, you’ve been living in the sect for a long time and probably aren’t too familiar with the situation outside. Yinxu Prefecture is currently in turmoil, and there are plenty of hidden undercurrents. The major families are openly and secretly working against the Qin family, and the City Lord’s forces regard us as a thorn in their side. Under these circumstances, I don’t really have the time or energy.”
After saying that, Qin Changqing glanced at Su Xiaoyue.
The latter had already communicated her intentions with Qin Changqing and immediately said, “Miss Mu Ling, what my husband said is true. The Qin family has just entered Yinxu Prefecture, and there are many things that my husband has to tackle personally. We hope you can understand.”
What a fine example of husband-and-wife harmony!
“Is that so?” Mu Ling frowned, “I’m really not too familiar with the situation. I apologize, Brother Qin, for my presumption. I’ll wait for a while then.”
Qin Changqing smiled, “As long as you understand, Junior Sister. I’ll ask Xiaoyue to take you to the backyard. Our house is pretty big, so you can feel free to choose your favorite courtyard.”
“Thank you, Brother Qin.”
“Miss Mu Ling, please follow me.”
Su Xiaoyue took Mu Ling to the backyard.
“Husband, why did Senior Sister Mu Ling come?” Liu Siqi walked in, curious.
“You know her?”
“Of course! Senior Sister Mu Ling is a genius in our sect. In her iteration of the Sect’s Grand Competition, she achieved third place with her amazing sword array! It’s quite an accomplishment to have competed alongside Senior Sister Qingning! ”
Qin Changqing muttered, “Even if she’s really strong, it doesn’t affect my status as a layabout. Why would I need to know her?”
Liu Siqi covered her mouth and laughed, “That’s true.”
“So, just by competing alongside your senior sister, she’s considered a genius?”
“Of course! Senior Sister Qingning is ranked among the top ten talents on the
Outstanding Talents List! It’s an honor to compete against her!”
Senior Sister Qingning was from Taixuan Peak and the closed disciple of Sect Leader Liu Mengxian.
“The Outstanding Talents List… is it really that amazing?” Qin Changing wondered, not knowing where his own strength as a Tier 4 mid-level formation master would rank on the list?
Mu Ling’s appearance made Qin Changqing aware of a serious issue.
All these years, he had actually overlooked the lovely junior sisters in the sect!
After all, the sect’s selection process was a huge hurdle.
Not only did the ones who entered the Lingxiao Sect have good appearances, but they couldn’t be too ugly either!
Take his junior sisters from Xuanyi Peak, for example. Each of them was lovely and charming. Any one of them could be a top-tier celebrity if they were in his previous life.
Xi’er and Bai Yan, as well as Qin Lingshuang, weren’t they all stunning beauties?
However, there were indeed fewer people in Xuanyi Peak.
“Sigh- I’m just too kind-hearted, unable to bear seeing Master end his days in loneliness.” Qin Changqing sighed.
He had made up his mind.
Although there were fewer people on Xuanyi Peak, there were more on other peaks.
It was time to broaden his horizons and integrate with other sects, first digesting internal resources and then going international.
Along the lines, he could even marry beauties from the Dayan Dynasty.
If demon cultivators were acceptable, why not those from the Dayan Dynasty?
Even if they were enemies, he could still turn them good and see it as helping them to reform..
