Chapter 61

On the last day of the plum blossoms, taking advantage of the lighter rain, I managed to write a chapter. I turned off the computer to rest, and the weather will return to normal tomorrow, as will my updates. I sincerely hope everyone continues to support me, those who haven't favorited, please do so, and those who have votes, please vote! Lingdong bows a hundred times!

Xu Ziyun looked at the peaceful Zhongdu City below the solitary peak and couldn't help but sigh, "Where there are people, there will be struggles!"

Turning her head to look at Xu Lin, who was frowning slightly, she said softly, "Don't think too much about it. The family will make the decision!"

"Yes!" Xu Lin placed his hands behind his back, his eyes growing dimmer, "We are just small figures; we just need to follow the family's orders!"

After a pause, Xu Lin's spirit suddenly lifted, his eyes shining with a fierce light as he said loudly, "But I am not content! I want to traverse the entire continent, meet all the great masters, and let my name spread throughout the world!"

Xu Ziyun looked up at the sky, where the full moon emitted a mysterious glow. Recalling her own experiences, she said dreamily, "Yes, I want to know how high the sky really is and what the secrets of the universe are."

Xu Lin's expression froze, and his gaze gradually turned intense as he said excitedly, "Sister Ziyun, you are amazing! Your goals are so grand! Yes, we cultivate to challenge the heavens and the earth, to understand the evolution of the universe and the limits of human beings!"

As he spoke, he grabbed Xu Ziyun's hand and said earnestly, "Sister Ziyun, let's work together to achieve this goal!"

Startled by Xu Lin's sudden grab, Xu Ziyun's body stiffened. Looking up at Xu Lin, who was so close, she saw admiration, joy, deep affection, and endless sorrow in his eyes. This complex gaze was captivating, and the hot breath on her face made her heart race. She said hoarsely, "It's cold, let's go back!"

"Okay!" Xu Lin responded softly, his voice almost inaudible, but his body remained still. His Adam's apple moved up and down, and the passion in his eyes grew, as if he wanted to melt himself and Ziyun!

The cold night on the solitary peak, the moon hanging in the sky, spreading a cold and clear light. They stood close together in the frosty wind, the cold wind accompanying their sorrow. Their passion eventually turned into two light sighs, they released their hands, and increased the distance between them, but their figures were imprinted in each other's hearts.

"Let's go back!"

"Okay!"

On the empty peak, two voices, now calm, echoed.

When they returned to their residence, the morning star was already shining brightly in the sky. Passing by Xu Qingsnow's house, Xu Ziyun stopped and gently knocked on the door.

Inside, there was a rustling sound, and Xu Qingsnow quietly opened the door. Seeing Xu Ziyun outside, she was taken aback and asked softly, "Sister Ziyun, have you finished your seclusion?"

Xu Ziyun gestured for her to come in, and Xu Qingsnow quickly moved aside. After Xu Ziyun entered, she gently closed the door.

In Xu Qingsnow's room, Xu Ziyun sat down in a chair and looked at Xu Qingsnow seriously. Xu Qingsnow, feeling uneasy under Xu Ziyun's gaze, was no longer the same as when she first met Xu Ziyun. At that time, she considered herself equal to Xu Ziyun, even thinking she was stronger, so her attitude was very calm, even somewhat cold towards Xu Ziyun.

In the end, she still approached Xu Ziyun with a mentoring attitude, but unexpectedly, she ended up losing. However, at that time, Xu Qingsnow was not convinced of her loss; she believed that after some cultivation, she would definitely surpass Xu Ziyun.

But reality was cruel. In just a few short months, when she stood before Xu Ziyun again, Xu Ziyun had become unreachable. Moreover, Xu Ziyun's knowledge made her sincerely convinced, and under Xu Ziyun's guidance, she broke through to the seventh level of the Later Heaven stage.

Therefore, now, in front of Xu Ziyun, Xu Qingsnow felt like a disciple in front of a master, both respectful and somewhat fearful.

Xu Ziyun saw Xu Qingsnow's unease but did not smile; instead, she said more seriously, "Qingsnow, if I want to establish a faction within the family, are you willing to follow me?"

Xu Qingsnow was initially stunned, but her expression quickly became very determined. In her heart, she had already considered Xu Ziyun her leader. She nodded forcefully and said, "Sister Ziyun, I am willing!"

Xu Ziyun could see the sincerity in Xu Qingsnow's eyes and nodded in satisfaction. She took out a bottle of Yuling Pills from her storage bag and handed it to Xu Qingsnow, who was standing in front of her, saying softly, "This bottle contains fifty Yuling Pills. Take them and use them, and when you run out, come to me for more."

Xu Qingsnow's body trembled. A bottle of fifty Yuling Pills—her family only issued one per month, and recently, it had been increased to two per month. With these Yuling Pills, Xu Qingsnow was almost certain that, with her talent, she would soon break through to the Later Heaven stage and reach the Innate Qi stage.

She took the bottle of Yuling Pills with trembling hands, and her gaze towards Xu Ziyun changed. She had always thought that Xu Ziyun's cultivation progress was fast, but she never believed Xu Ziyun had any background. She always thought Xu Ziyun was just like her, someone with no background in the family. But now, it was different. How could someone who could casually take out a whole bottle of Yuling Pills have no background?

Thinking about the leader she followed, who not only had astonishing cultivation progress but also a mysterious background, Xu Qingsnow felt happy, and her gaze towards Xu Ziyun became even more respectful.

Xu Ziyun saw the change in Xu Qingsnow's expression and was very satisfied. She needed people like this—those with potential for development and loyalty to her. Only then could she feel confident entrusting tasks to them.

Looking at Xu Qingsnow seriously, she said, "Qingsnow, you must remember, you cannot tell anyone about the pills I gave you, not even the clan leader!"

Xu Qingsnow nodded immediately without hesitation. In her heart, the clan leader was unreachable, and Xu Ziyun in front of her was the opportunity she should seize.

Xu Ziyun's expression softened as she looked at Xu Qingsnow. Since she had determined that Xu Qingsnow would be her confidant, she couldn't keep a cold face. She said gently, "Qingsnow, I believe it won't be long before I break through to the Later Heaven stage and enter the Inner Hall. I hope you can quickly improve your cultivation so that when I leave the Outer Hall, you can take care of the new disciples!"
