Cultivation: Starting from a Mortal Bone

”It’s actually true!”

In fact, not only the elders, but even our deep-minded Sect Leader Su Xihe, is now filled with disbelief.

In a place like Lin Xian City, such a prodigy has truly appeared!

However, upon seeing the four women beside Qin Yu, Su Xihe thought again of what Liu Zixiao had said.

Perhaps what Liu Zixiao said wasn’t entirely without reason.

If this person’s talent is indeed so good and possesses a Spirit Bone, yet is only at Qi Refining Fifth Layer, it might be because he is truly indulging in beauty.

He definitely needs a strict teacher!

At the same time, Su Xihe clearly sensed that the elders behind her were somewhat eager to make a move. Clearly, they all wanted to bring Qin Yu into their fold.

Hmph, dreaming!

It was discovered by my sister Su Xiyue, so why should they pick the fruit?!

The previously hesitant Su Xihe also seemed to have made a decision at this moment.

This was followed by a welcoming feast specially prepared for the Saintess Su Xiyue.

Now that Qin Yu was a Core Disciple, he naturally could attend.

He originally planned to sit quietly in a corner, but unexpectedly, he was personally arranged by the Sect Leader to sit in a very conspicuous position, right next to the lower seat of the Saintess Su Xiyue.

Yin Qinghe and the other three, as family members, were not supposed to be eligible to attend the feast, but the elders seemed to be showing their magnanimity and allowed them to join, sitting behind Qin Yu.

Although the seating arrangement differed, the gourmet dishes and Spirit Fruits on the table were equally exquisite, emitting an enticing aroma filled with rich Spiritual Qi.

Looking at the tempting and fragrant Spirit Fruits before him, Qin Yu couldn’t help but feel an indescribable emotion.

Any one of these Spirit Fruits could cause cultivators to fight over it outside, yet in the Immortal Sect, they could often enjoy them.

This shows that the difference between the Immortal Sect and Loose Cultivator City is like that between cloud and mud, two entirely different worlds.

Entering the Immortal Sect is like opening the door to a new world, causing both vision and mentality to unknowingly change.

The welcoming feast went smoothly.

During the feast, many elders came to chat with Qin Yu, most with the same intention, their desire to win him over evident.

Qin Yu, being overly cautious, could only respond to them one by one, not daring to be the slightest bit negligent.

Meanwhile, the Saintess Su Xiyue left, never having spoken a word to Qin Yu throughout, nor even exchanging glances, as if they were two parallel lines destined never to meet, utterly unfamiliar.

Seeing this, Su Xihe couldn’t help but feel a trace of doubt in her heart.

She had deliberately arranged for Qin Yu to sit below Su Xiyue to observe if there was any... intrigue between them?

But now, the two seemed completely unacquainted, not even having basic interaction.

This made her question herself - could she be overthinking?

But on second thought, that didn’t seem right either.

Her sister and Qin Yu indeed had intersections before, which Su Xiyue had openly acknowledged, even explicitly stating it was she who personally persuaded Qin Yu.

Yet now, the two seemed like strangers, showing no sign of past acquaintance!

When things are abnormal, there must be hidden reasons!

The more distant and detached they acted, the more it suggested that there were... secrets unknown to others between them.

But who knows to what extent their relationship has progressed, whether it’s just simple communication or...?

”It seems I should find an opportunity to probe Xiyue’s views.”

Su Xihe calculated quietly in her mind.

...

The banquet quickly concluded, and under Liu Zixiao’s guidance, Qin Yu and the others arrived in front of a courtyard beneath the main peak.

Tranquil and Elegant Abode.

This was the independent dwelling that Sect Leader Su Xihe had promised him.

Although called a dwelling, it was actually a not-so-small courtyard, veiled in mist when viewed from the outside, making it indistinct.

Upon pushing open the courtyard gate, inside revealed a meticulously crafted garden, occupying merely two acres, yet cleverly laid out with elegantly arranged pavilions, bridges, and flowing streams.

Every brick and tile, every plant and tree was seamlessly integrated into this piece of heaven and earth.

”Brother-in-law, are we going to live here from now on?”

Since leaving the welcoming banquet, Lin Shuishui had clung to Qin Yu like a little tail. As she stepped into this elegant courtyard, her clear eyes sparkled like starlight, cheeks blushing with uncontrollable joy and anticipation.

Not only her, but Lin Qianqian and Zhao Mengli also cast expectant and excited glances.

Previously, Lin Qianqian and her sister could only squeeze into a small room, a partition at that. Even in Danxin Herb Hall, the space for activities was still limited and cramped.

Even Zhao Mengli had never imagined living in such an elegant courtyard one day, not having to worry about safety, able to play and frolic freely within.

This gave them a surreal sense of having transitioned to a different world.

Even their teacher, Yin Qinghe, showed an excited expression.

Even though Qin Yu had mentioned Xiyue Fairy’s promise, now standing here truly felt entirely different.

Upon entering, she immediately felt herself enveloped by abundant Spiritual Qi, its richness comparable to that of refining lower-grade Spirit Stones during cultivation!

If they were to reside here, even without Spirit Stones, they could quickly reach the peak of Qi Refining.

And all of this was because of Qin Yu. Without him, they might have never arrived here in their entire lives.

Noticing their expressions change, Liu Zixiao’s lips curled into a subtle arc and she asked, ”Does this place meet your satisfaction?”

”Satisfied, satisfied, thank you, Elder Liu.”

Qin Yu was certainly very satisfied; he actually wasn’t too concerned about the place as long as safety was ensured.

Moreover, this courtyard before him, whether in layout or scenery, was perfect and unblemishable.

Liu Zixiao nodded lightly, ”That’s good. You can focus on cultivation here at ease. Should you need anything, just inform me through the Sound Transmission Stone.”

After speaking, she took out a faintly glowing Sound Transmission Stone and a specially made token from her sleeve and handed them to Qin Yu.

Having just returned to the Immortal Sect, she naturally had many tasks to address, especially with the Sect Leader awaiting her, she couldn’t delay too long.

Qin Yu took the token and, under her guidance, completed the blood drop refinement.

Following that, Liu Zixiao didn’t say much else and simply turned and left.

”Wow, this place is really beautiful...”

As soon as she left, Lin Shuishui and Zhao Mengli cheered, running back and forth inside the courtyard, even taking an interest in the Spirit Fish in the water.

Qin Yu didn’t stop them but instead started examining the room layout inside.

There were many rooms, some for living, some for cultivation, and others specifically for Alchemy, with an Alchemy Furnace prepared inside.

Overall, everything necessary was in place.

It was clear that things had been meticulously arranged beforehand.
