Chapter 168: Gentlemen''s Match


    The first day of the Grain Rain Tao Conference came to an end. Qin Yi returned to his cave house, nced at the packed medicinal garden and pondered.


    Liu Su didn''t teach him the elixir recipe one by one only when it was needed.


    After the soul of the immortal cultivator was solidified, they could already use divine thought. Each of them had an amazingly good memory. Liu Su had long selected a batch of elixirs that might be useful to Qin Yi.


    Among them were those that could be taken in advance to protect the soul.


    It was just that different methods had different effects on the soul. Even within the way of elixir, different elixirs had different effects. One elixir could only protect against one or a few methods in advance. It was difficult to take one elixir


    and be immune to all harm.


    There was one kind of elixir, but it was too high grade. Not only it was difficult to refine, the materials were not easy to find too.


    It was not possible to take multiple elixirs in advance as their effects might conflict.


    Therefore, one could only refine the most targeted effect in advance. This required a better understanding of the Immortal Pce''s medical sect."Qing Feng, Ming Yue." Qin Yi suddenly shouted, "Tell the sect master toe over. I need her help."


    "Are you considering refining some elixir to protect your soul?" Ju Yunxiu''s voice sounded from behind.


    "That two attendants are really unreliable. Can they just let people in like this?"


    "I’m the sect master."


    Qin Yi turned around and saw Ju Yunxiu walking over slowly. Her long skirt was trailing to the ground as if she were in the clouds. She looked extremely graceful.


    She was really beautiful, so Qin Yi shouldn''t be med for always being suspicious of someone having ill intentions about her. Even in the pursuit of ''seeing beyond appearances'', one still ahd desire for beauty. This was human nature, and it was difficult to eliminate this nature.


    Ju Yunxiu walked over and said with a smile, "Besides, it''s not like you''ve never entered my house before. What are you pretending for?"


    "Ugh... That''s because you are too careless. I want to remind you to be careful, in case a lecher..."


    "No, the only person who hase into my house over the years while I''m sleeping is a lecher named Qin Yi."


    Qin Yi stared at her.


    Ju Yunxiu stared back.


    "Okay, I know that Junior Qin is a noble person." They red at each other for a while, then Ju Yunxiuughed first. "It''s just a little dirty. It is supposed to be a tao debate of the piano, chess, calligraphy, and painting sect, but you secretly came back to refine elixir.” ??áNΟ?è?


    Qin Yi said, "Am I not trying to earn you honor?"


    "Really?" Ju Yunxiu asked back, not taking it seriously. She just smiled and said, "Actually, there was no use in scheming with them."


    "Huh?"


    "Tian Jizi''s divination can peek into the secrets of heaven. All your responses will be under his calctions."


    Qin Yi sweated. "It''s just a conference. Do they really need to cheat to that extent?"


    Ju Yunxiu looked at him with a half-smile.


    Qin Yi smiled.


    Weren''t they also cheating with the sect master?


    He forced a cough and asked, "You said it was useless in the past, so do you mean it works now?"


    "Everything about our sect, I will write the heavenly book and draw the rituals. Master''s Junior will reverse the chess game and confuse right and wrong." Ju Yunxiu said nonchntly. "So he can''t calcte it."


    Qin Yi was dumbfounded.


    The story flow had suddenly changed. He seemed to be involved in the powerhouses'' power struggle.


    "Why does our sect never have any disciples? Do you really think it''s because I''m toozy to care or because it''s a natural w in our way?" Ju Yunxiu said lightly, "This is just a result of someone''s calctions. Without any sessor, our sect will lose its value of existence.”


    "Wanting to eliminate our sect? So vicious?"


    "Not really, it''s just an intention to annex. An ambitious sect should expand. This must always be the truth." Ju Yunxiu said, "No matter how bad it is, we can still have one main mountain. The others can be given away. If we were all obsessed people who didn’t care about anything, they should have seeded hundreds of years ago.”


    It is quite amicable this way. At least there is no fight. It is a bit like a gentleman''s match?


    Is it because the Pce Master that they don''t dare to overdo it?


    Ju Yunxiu knew what he was thinking, and she said with a smile, "Pce Master is part of the reason. Another reason is that they are afraid of our strength. Also, their way emphasizes calction, not violence, so our match is very gentleman.”


    Qin Yi alsoughed. "It''s a bit interesting. It''s more graceful than the viin I imagined."


    Ju Yunxiu shook his head slightly, "But this match is almost over."


    "Why?"


    "Our sect only have a few people, and we have upied arge amount of resources for a long time. Pce Master really can''t help us anymore. Pce Master has talked to me several times about this, and I have always rejected it. In the end, I still made a promise. If there is no sign of arge-scale expansion of sessors in a hundred years, then our sect will release some mountains." Ju Yunxiu said with a smile, "So now you know why they are anxious after you recruited a bunch of children."


    Qin Yi now realized that epting him or Jing Ze, wasn''t significant in their eyes. But recruiting this group of children was different. Although the number was notrge, this was the beginning. It had the possibility of expanding the sect, which could ruin the ns of the past few hundred years.


    "Recruiting disciples is just the beginning. They will have a lot of ways to make disciples to change their sects." Ju Yunxiu said, "For example… someone advised you to change sect, right?"


    Qin Yi smiled. "Yes, But who is interested in ying with a bunch of old cunts?"


    Ju Yunxiu leaned forward a little and said, "So... you like to y with me?"


    As she got closer, the fragrance hit his face, making him swallow subconsciously. Fairy, respect yourself. Don''t flirt with me, lest I can''t control myself!


    But he knew that this was not flirting. On the contrary, Ju Yunxiu deliberately tested him.


    She wouldn''t hope that he really joined for beauty, that would be very disappointing.


    He must hold on!


    His heart was beating fast, but he remained calm. "Senior Ju, wouldn''t you also like to y music, paint, and read with me? If this immortalnd is tainted by the mortal rtionship, it''s a beautiful painting being stained by ink, won''t it be a waste?”


    Ju Yunxiu smiled brightly and stood up straight again.


    Qin Yi sighed as if he had chosen the correct option in some game. It was very exciting.


    Ju Yunxiu regained herposure and went straight to the point. "As for tomorrow''spetition, I''m very sure that they want you to make a big fool of yourself in public and too shameful to stay."


    Qin Yi thought for a while, "Then I probably know what direction to refine the protective elixir."


    Ju Yunxiu said, "When you chose this cave house, you had conflicts with Xi Xiangzi. They could have guessed that you woulde back to refine the elixir for protection. Don''t be careless."


    "It doesn''t matter. If they can''t calcte my actions, then they don''t know the true level of my alchemy." Qin Yi said, "In the final analysis, it''s just about whose alchemy is better. And I still have the way of calligraphy and painting to protect my soul. With double effect, the chance of winning is still greater.”


    Ju Yunxiu nodded and said, "Just protect yourself. As for the oue, don''t force it. If you want the painting, I''ll just go to the Pce Master and exchange it with something."


    Qin Yi looked at her.


    Ju Yunxiu slightly blushed and said, "This immortalnd should not be stained by the ink."


    After saying that, she turned around and left.
