Chapter 45

Su Yuanshan frowned, thinking in his heart.

Or, let's call the Yunmeng River Earl out. After all, this is his territory, he should be very familiar with it.

Su Yuanshan was about to cast a spell when he suddenly heard a silver bell-like laugh. He looked up and saw a beautiful girl picking lotus flowers by the lake.

Miraculously, it was autumn now, but the lotus flowers by the lake were in full bloom, with deep purple, orange, and bright red, each one crystal clear like crystal. Su Yuanshan narrowed his eyes and couldn't help but praise, what a magical lotus, what a beautiful girl.

But the woman, with a willow-like figure, graceful and charming, wearing a green dress, long hair like a waterfall, skin like fat, seemed like a fairy walking out of a painting.

Even Su Yuanshan couldn't help but praise, what a spiritual girl, and glanced at those magical lotus flowers, he couldn't help but stir in his heart.

Seeming to notice Su Yuanshan's existence, the girl was carrying a flower basket full of lotus flowers and was about to leave. At this time, Su Yuanshan spoke.

"The lotus flowers that the girl planted are full of spiritual Qi. Is it the Xiao Ling Planting Technique of the Qingyun Sect?"

The girl seemed surprised upon hearing this, and asked with full vigilance.

"Who is the young master?"

The Qingyun Sect is an insignificant small sect. According to the records in the "Heavenly Treasure Strange Object Record," the Qingyun Sect was founded a hundred years ago and was founded by a loose cultivator who liked to cultivate spiritual plants. The most famous Daoist method of that sect is the "Xiao Ling Planting Technique," so Su Yuanshan asked this question. He didn't expect to guess it right.

Seeing the girl ask him, Su Yuanshan said faintly.

"My surname is Su, just a free and easy crane, what should I call the girl?"

The girl looked at him curiously, gathered the messy hair by her ears, and answered crisply.

"The little woman is called Cailian. By the way, how did you see that I used the Xiao Ling Planting Technique on the lotus flowers?"

Su Yuanshan smiled slightly.

"So, you are a disciple of the Qingyun Sect?"

Cailian waved her small hands.

"No, no, no, my master was once a disciple of the Qingyun Sect, but I am not.

Later, my master left the Qingyun Sect and became the master of the Qingyun Temple.

My Xiao Ling Planting Technique was learned from him."

She spoke like pouring soybeans, saying everything at once, leaving nothing behind.

Su Yuanshan's eyes lit up upon hearing this.

"Qingyun Temple?"

"So you are a cultivator nearby? Truly disrespectful."

Upon hearing this, a look of pride appeared on the girl's face, and she smiled and said.

"It's nothing. We cultivators are not as magical as the world says, not as transcendent as they say.

We are essentially ordinary people, no different from you."

Hearing what she meant, she clearly regarded Su Yuanshan as an ordinary mortal.

However, Su Yuanshan smiled faintly and didn't point it out, just said.

"I don't know what the master's name is? Can I meet him? Ask for advice?"

Cailian clearly misunderstood Su Yuanshan's meaning, thinking he wanted to apprentice and practice.

Only saw her look at Su Yuanshan carefully, and said with a smile.

"I see you are not very old, but your ambition is not small, actually wanting to be a cultivator?

You must know that not everyone can be a cultivator. The requirements for individual aptitude and understanding are very strict.

I see your aptitude, it's also very average, it's not easy to apprentice.

Even if you see him, don't hold too much hope, it's not certain whether my master will accept you as a disciple.

Even if the master makes a mistake and accepts you, you are destined to be a little junior brother. Because there are many senior brothers above you, and I am the big senior sister."

She was hard to hide her pride when she said these things.

Su Yuanshan felt that the girl was arrogant, and couldn't help but laugh.

Seeing this, the girl frowned slightly and said dissatisfiedly.

"What are you laughing at? Everything I said is true, our Qingyun Temple has many rules."

However, Su Yuanshan didn't explain too much, just cupped his hands and said.

"Then I will trouble the girl."

Cailian raised her hand, carried the flower basket on her back, and said.

"Follow me, our Qingyun Temple is not far from here, but you can't talk nonsense when you get there."

Cailian walked in front, her gait light. As she walked, the flower basket on her back swayed.

She was graceful in a blue shirt and green skirt, attracting attention, but Su Yuanshan's gaze was not on her, just looking at the white clouds and wild cranes in the mountains, and chatting with Cailian one sentence at a time.

"Cailian girl, how many people are there in your sect? Are you good at refining weapons?"

"Refining weapons?"

Hearing Su Yuanshan mention refining weapons, Cailian seemed to have a bit of interest, and said crisply.

"Compared to those famous sects, our Qingyun Temple is still a little bit away, so we don't have a hall specifically for refining weapons like them.

However, there are also high-ranking people in our Qingyun Temple who can refine weapons, but the number is not large, and this girl happens to be one of them."

As she spoke, she seemed to proudly straighten her chest, although the peaches were very small.

Seeming to notice Su Yuanshan's mocking expression and the strange look at her chest, she hurriedly covered the vital parts and asked vigilantly.

"What are you looking at?"

"Nothing."

"I just think the scenery here is very good, outstanding people and beautiful land, mountains and clear waters."

Cailian smiled, revealing two small dimples, and she actually heroically patted Su Yuanshan on the shoulder and said enthusiastically.

"You guy, you really know how to talk, mix with me, and I will cover you in the future."

This operation scared the little white fox, and it was about to bare its teeth and give this rude human a lesson, but it was stopped by Su Yuanshan's eyes.

Su Yuanshan laughed and said.

"It's a pity that Su is too big, I'm afraid the girl can't cover it, so... I can only live up to the girl's kindness."

"Oh!" Cailian seemed a bit disappointed, but soon she realized something,

Looked at Su Yuanshan again with a strange look, and suddenly said.

"By the way, I almost ignored it.

Why? You are a mortal, and you also want to refine weapons? Don't tell me you are also a cultivator? Why can't I sense a trace of spiritual power fluctuation from you?"

Su Yuanshan naturally wouldn't tell her that his art of restraining breath was practiced very well.

He just said faintly.

"That's not it. There is a senior in my clan who happens to be a cultivator. He has a broken sword that needs to be repaired.

So when I learned that the girl was also a cultivator, I asked casually." The girl nodded and said.

"So that's it, but it's a pity that the senior in your clan is not here now. Otherwise, this girl would like to help you see what the quality of that broken sword is? Is it worth repairing?"

She said and quickened her pace, walking up the mountain. The mountain road was rugged, and the stone steps artificially chiseled were severely weathered due to long-term wind and rain, making them somewhat uneven. Plus, the accumulation of broken stones, withered leaves, and bird droppings falling from above, so it was not easy to walk.

But no matter how fast Cailian walked, Su Yuanshan followed slowly behind, not falling too far, and quietly took out the broken sword from the Spirit Void Ring, and then smiled slightly.

"I almost forgot, that broken sword happens to be in Su's hands. Can the girl help me take a look?"

Cailian was stunned for a moment, turned around, looked at Su Yuanshan's broken sword, and said.

"You... you... you won't be fooling this girl, right?"

Su Yuanshan couldn't help but smile.

"How is that possible? How could Su fool the girl? This broken sword is in my hands!"

Cailian pouted and said.

"You know that's not what I meant."
