A Sect from a Spirit Vein

Chapter 661: Chapter 505: True Dragon Body Vein

Lu Qian paid her no mind, sealed the Sect Leader’s Courtyard once more, and walked straight out.

The residences of the elders and true inheritors on Minglong Mountain all surrounded the spirit vein. Thus, Lu Qian did not walk far before arriving at his destination.

It was a pavilion by the water, an elegant three-story building reflecting Moon Hooks and the Milky Way in the tranquil pond.

A warm lamp was lit on the pavilion, as a gentle breeze stirred, rippling the water and shattering the light into a pool of stardust, mingling with the starry glow.

With a swift movement of his form, Lu Qian added his reflection to the water filled with stars and moon, flying directly into the window where the warm lamp was.

”Senior Sister,” Lu Qian gently knocked on the window, revealing a face both sulking and delighted.

”Such reckless behavior—why do you always avoid the main door?” Jiang Qingfeng pretended to scold angrily but still welcomed her beloved inside.

Lu Qian naturally embraced her waist, giving a light kiss on her smooth forehead.

”I have a gift for you.”

Jiang Qingfeng blushed, grasping his mischievous hand, and coyly said, ”The black stockings you gave last time were strange enough. What odd apparel do you have this time?”

Lu Qian laughed heartily, releasing his senior sister lightly, setting up an array barrier in the room, then gently gathering force from his dantian, forming a sphere of five-colored spiritual qi in his palm.

Jiang Qingfeng raised her elegant eyebrow in surprise; she recognized this as another use of the Five Elements Immortal Prison, only utilized when preserving exceptionally rare treasures to prevent them from being tainted by mundane things.

Lu Qian revealed it without delay. His palm shook and dispersed the five-element spiritual qi, leaving a drop of pitch-black blood pearl floating in the air, radiating ancient, grand, and powerful waves that violently shook the room’s array.

Jiang Qingfeng’s eyes widened in shock, exclaiming, ”True Dragon Blood?!”

Lu Qian held the blood pearl, nodding, ”Senior Sister, it truly is True Dragon Blood.”

So he recounted the tale he’d concealed, slightly modified: how he encountered Meng Chi True Monarch, killed him, obtained the True Dragon Blood, saved Ji Yunrou, and received the Blood Fusion Secret Technique, without mentioning that Ji Yunrou was currently on Minglong Mountain.

Upon hearing that Lu Qian faced Meng Chi True Monarch alone, Jiang Qingfeng immediately tightened her grip on Lu Qian’s hands, as water-colored spiritual power began to flow into Lu Qian’s meridians.

Seeing her senior sister’s worried expression, Lu Qian let her scrutinize while gently assuring, ”Senior Sister, I am unharmed, you can be at ease.”

Jiang Qingfeng did not listen, continuing her examination until she sensed no hidden ailments in Lu Qian’s stable pulse and finally stopped. She lifted her head, recalling how Lu Qian instructed everyone to evacuate, facing the True Dragon Celestial Monarch alone, feeling both anger and worry, her eyes welled up: ”Why do you always do this? Facing everything alone, what is the point of my arduous cultivation?”

Lu Qian wanted to hold her, but she broke free immediately, leaving him to softly say, ”Dear Senior Sister, this time truly exceeded my expectations. If a Celestial Monarch had descended, even a thousand or ten thousand people staying would have died. If everyone encountered mishap, Yunshan Sect could not bear such a blow—”

”Yunshan Sect cannot bear a blow, but can I?” Jiang Qingfeng glared through tears, ”If you died, I surely wouldn’t live alone!”

Lu Qian’s heart trembled fiercely, instinctively reaching out, only to be pushed away by his senior sister.

”In my eyes, you are not Yunshan Sect Leader, you are my Lu Qian. If there’s a next time, I will refuse your orders.”

”Always anxiously awaiting your news, unsure of whether it’s misfortune or success. Do you understand such feelings?”

”I don’t care about the treasures you obtain each time; I only want you to live safely!”

Lu Qian felt both touched and guilty, forcefully holding her despite her struggles, as the room quieted down, leaving only the low sobbing of his senior sister.

”Promise me, never venture alone again.” Jiang Qingfeng tightly clutched Lu Qian’s clothes, ”Every time, I know I can’t keep up with you, I know I am your burden, I—”

Lu Qian shook his head, gently wiping her tears: ”Never again, that’s why I brought you the True Dragon Blood; once you fuse with it, you will acquire the True Dragon Body Vein, henceforth with exceptional talent and extraordinary cultivation, able to aid me in the future.”

Lu Qian explained his speculations regarding the True Dragon Body Vein’s uniqueness, though only conjecture, the True Dragon Body Vein must be extraordinary, ensuring his senior sister’s fruition in her path.

Jiang Qingfeng slowly calmed, looking at the blood pearl Lu Qian obtained through chance after braving great dangers, shaking her head, ”In that case, Junior Brother, you should fuse with it yourself.”

Lu Qian chuckled lightly, ”I have already cultivated Pure Glazed Body, unable to fuse with alien blood anymore.”

Jiang Qingfeng shook her head again, ”Junior Brother, have you forgotten? This chance should be given to Xiaolin. The child is talented everywhere, and now that Consciousness Collection is discovered, with such bloodline he surely could become a leading figure in Yunshan Sect.”

”Though True Dragon Blood harbors mystery, unfortunately it doesn’t increase cultivation speed; its help to Lin Le wouldn’t be as significant as for you,” Lu Qian persuaded, ”Besides, I have arranged another opportunity for Lin Le, just waiting for the right moment for a significant boost. I will continue looking out for him.”

Jiang Qingfeng then mentioned the names of two senior brothers and Wu Yan, Xiao Tianci, feeling her cultivation was lacking, suggesting it was better for them to have it.
