Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

Xu Zhangqing steeled his courage and asked curiously, "May I ask, Venerable, what are all these?"

Immortal Maiden Qingyue explained slowly, "A jade slip, recording the ancient cultivation methods of the primordial spirit fields.

That is the Chong Chong Ding, capable of gathering spiritual energy to nurture insects.

The jade token is a spirit vein guide, able to absorb and nurture spiritual energy."

Three treasures, each a peerless item with extremely strong specificity.

Every single one is of great benefit to Xu Zhangqing.

From this it can be seen that Immortal Maiden Qingyue had long since figured out his situation.

Xu Zhangqing gazed at the three treasures suspended in midair, his eyes shining, yet he did not reach out for a long time.

The ancient cultivation methods could elevate his spirit field attainments another level.

The Chong Chong Ding happens to be perfectly suited to his own Spirit Insect Cultivator path.

As for the spirit vein guide, it is even more a cultivation tool.

But the stronger the specificity, the more Xu Zhangqing felt something was off.

There is no free lunch under heaven; there must be conditions hidden behind this.

Seeing the person before her unmoved, Immortal Maiden Qingyue let out a "puchi" laugh, her laughter echoing in the hall: "No wonder that old thing Mu Ji sent you here; he indeed didn't pick the wrong person.

He's an old fox, you're a little fox."

Xu Zhangqing bowed and spoke directly: "Venerable bestowing heavy treasures is definitely not a simple return gift.

This junior is dull; please speak plainly, what exactly are your orders?

As long as it doesn't violate the Immortal Sect's rules, I will certainly do my utmost!"

Immortal Maiden Qingyue withdrew her smile, her gaze turning a few degrees more serious: "It's not anything difficult. I have a junior I want to send to Dongting Immortal Sect for experience training.

I hope you'll give a convenience, let her easily enter the Immortal Sect."

Once these words came out, Xu Zhangqing's heart grew even more doubtful.

With Immortal Maiden Qingyue's status, wanting a junior to enter any sect would be effortless; why specifically seek out Dongting Immortal Sect, seek out himself?

Even specially bestowing heavy treasures?

And "give a convenience" — just hearing it, it's not simple!

Xu Zhangqing weighed his words and spoke: "Venerable, this matter is not difficult.

Dongting Immortal Sect widely recruits talents; as long as your junior's aptitude is passable and character upright, passing the entrance assessment is not hard.

Only..."

He shifted his tone: "Only, this junior wants to meet the person first, so as to have a clear idea."

Immortal Maiden Qingyue nodded, expressing understanding, then called out: "Come out!"

As soon as her voice fell, a petite figure identical to her in figure and appearance walked out slowly.

Also wearing double buns, dressed in a goose-yellow little skirt.

Even the moonlight aura swirling around her body was exactly the same.

Xu Zhangqing's pupils shrank sharply, and he blurted out subconsciously: "This fucking isn't just you?"

Immortal Maiden Qingyue said with a smile: "It's me, yet not me."

Xu Zhangqing went "Ah," a bit not understanding: "What do you mean?"

Immortal Maiden Qingyue explained: "This is my Spiritual Resonance avatar, named Qingyao.

She has independent consciousness, needs to undergo tempering to perfectly merge with the main body, and finally assist me in charging at Refining Void."

Xu Zhangqing stared wide-eyed: "Spiritual Resonance avatar?"

This completely touched his knowledge blind spot; previously he had never heard of it.

Could it be that any cultivator who reaches Spirit Transformation does this?

Seemingly seeing through his thoughts, Immortal Maiden Qingyue continued: "This is one of our Yao Yue Immortal Sect's secret arts; only the Sect Master, Vice Sect Master, Great Elder, and Supreme Elders know of it."

Xu Zhangqing's mouth corner twitched: "Now... this junior also knows."

A crafty glint flashed in Immortal Maiden Qingyue's eyes: "So, if anyone outside finds out about this, it's definitely you who leaked it."

Silence.

Long silence.

Xu Zhangqing's silence was deafening.

Immortal Maiden Qingyue smiled: "The avatar and I share the same root and source; if she enters another sect, it would inevitably draw coveting.

Dongting Immortal Sect has your Master there, so I naturally rest assured."

Xu Zhangqing hesitated a moment: "Is it entering Dongting Immortal Sect, or..."

Immortal Maiden Qingyue spoke frankly: "Mu Ji is a Spirit Transformation Venerable, and you are his most valued Direct Disciple.

Letting her follow Mu Ji, that old thing would definitely refuse.

Therefore following you is the best choice."

Xu Zhangqing's expression turned a bit ugly: "Old geezer, no wonder you didn't come!"

What kind of backdoor is this? Clearly receiving a hot potato.

At this moment he began calculating in his heart.

This matter appears simple, but in reality it involves far-reaching connections.

First, the benefits:

Not only does he receive three heavy treasures, he can also sell Qingyue Immortal Maiden a tremendous favor.

Next, the drawbacks:

Qingyao's identity is special; not only must he expend energy to take care of her, he must also conceal her true identity.

But these, in fact, are only short-term.

If considered from the long term, it is completely different.

If Qingyue Immortal Maiden successfully breaks through to the Refining Void stage, Dongting Immortal Sect will form a deep connection with a Refining Void Venerable.

As Qingyao's recommender and caretaker, he himself will establish a connection with Qingyue Immortal Maiden.

When the time comes later, when he assaults a high realm, he will surely receive the other party's guidance and assistance, avoiding many detours.

However, once Qingyue Immortal Maiden fails her assault on Refining Void, or Qingyao's avatar meets with mishap during experience training, that will certainly affect the relationship with Qingyue Immortal Maiden, even turning from allies into enemies.

Qingyue Immortal Maiden asked with a beaming smile: "How about it?"

Xu Zhangqing took a deep breath, thought it over, and accepted the three treasures.

Even if the matter falls through, these things are still useful to him.

Moreover, since Master let him come, that is tacit approval.

In other words, he is merely a link in the old couple's affair.

Seeing Xu Zhangqing accept the treasures, Qingyue Immortal Maiden's eyebrows curved into crescents.

One could tell her mood was very good.

She raised her hand and waved, and another item appeared.

Xu Zhangqing fixed his gaze and saw a token, entirely crystalline white.

Roughly the size of a palm.

The material seemed like jade yet not jade, like ice yet not ice, transparent enough to reflect a person's shadow.

The front was engraved with a vivid moon osmanthus tree; among its branches were fine moon-pattern markings, and the edges were wreathed in faint silver radiance.

The back was engraved with the character "Moon" in ancient seal script, the characters flowing with gentle spiritual light.

Qingyue Immortal Maiden introduced: "This is the Moon Radiance Token of the Yao Yue Immortal Sect; whoever holds this token is an honored guest of my Yao Yue Immortal Sect.

Anywhere in the Tianyuan Realm, whether at Yao Yue Immortal Sect's branches, shops, or even outposts, one can enjoy a thirty-percent discount, and priority exchange for my sect's exclusive resources.

When encountering difficulties, one can also summon nearby Yao Yue disciples for aid.

You keep it well; it will surely come in handy later."

Xu Zhangqing reached out to receive it, his fingertips stroking the delicate patterns on the token, inwardly sighing at the token's exquisiteness and preciousness, then bowed and said: "Thank you, Venerable, for your generous gift!"

Qingyue Immortal Maiden looked at the avatar beside her, her mind moved, and the features on her face changed.

From exactly the same, they became a few degrees more childish at the brows and eyes, the contours softened somewhat.

Gone was the main body's awe-inspiring dignity, added were a few points of an ordinary maiden's liveliness.

At first glance, she merely looked alike, rather than being her.

A disguise can eliminate much trouble.

Otherwise, stepping out the door she would be recognized.

Anyone who knows the trade would certainly know what situation it is.

"Qingyao, why haven't you greeted your Master?"

"Master."

"No, we each have our own seniority; you call me Master, I'd have to call you Grandma!"

Qingyue Immortal Maiden, Qingyao: "..."
