    Ji Qingzhuo saw that Yingxiu was hit against a tree by Qiu Mingxue, and the silver bracelet on her wrist was shining like a shackle.

    Her brows were slightly wrinkled, and she didn't want to be involved in this matter, but Qiu Mingxue and Yingxiu were on her way to class, and she was bound to attract their attention when she walked over.

    So she stepped back a little, but the sound of their conversation kept coming.

    "Princess, the stone grass you want only grows on the highest and most dangerous cliffs in the country. In order to find the materials for you to make the medicinal herbs, many herb collectors who have been sent have fallen off the cliff. These precious The medicinal herbs...is not something that Zeguo can afford at all, and now the people of the country have complaints..." Yingxiu clutched her sleeves and said in a trembling voice, she was helpless and helpless.

    "So what?" Qiu Mingxue raised her eyebrows and said, she still pressed her sleeves and warned, "This is my country, after the death of my father, his position will be mine, my country I think Whatever it is, the lives and resources of the people in the country are all mine.”

    "Princess... When they can't stand it, do you know what will happen?" Yingxiu had tears in her eyes, her tone helpless.

    "Of course I know." Qiu Mingxue threw off her sleeves, "but what does it have to do with me, I'm already a monk, these ordinary things won't affect me, Zeguo is dead, I can't be a queen, I will continue in Xuanyunzong. Cultivation is good."

    "Princess..." Yingxiu looked at her pleadingly.

    Qiu Mingxue walked into Ye Duanhong's classroom without looking back, but she walked in a dashing manner.

    Yingxiu stayed on the spot, squatted down against the tree, sat on the ground, stared blankly ahead, tears fell in her eyes, she felt extremely desperate.

    After a long time, a white handkerchief was handed in front of her, and her slender hand supported her.

    Yingxiu looked up and saw Ji Qingzhuo in a blue dress standing in front of her.

    It was the first time that Ji Qingzhuo wore such a bright dress, which was vivid and clear, like a flower carved out of glass, and her expression was light.

    When she saw the conversation between Qiu Mingxue and Yingxiu, she didn't feel much, but Yingxiu cried, and she felt that she should hand over a white handkerchief.

    "Thank you." Yingxiu took the white handkerchief and covered her eyes.

    Ji Qingzhuo didn't have the concept of an ancient country, and she didn't know why Yingxiu would give up on Qiu Mingxue. Even if Qiu Mingxue treated her so harshly, she would not leave.

    After she handed the white handkerchief to Yingxiu, she was about to leave. From beginning to end, she didn't say a word.

    Ji Qingzhuo entered the class as usual, Ye Duanhong had already been waiting on this small square, he was wearing a black long gown and his face was stern and serious.

    Unlike that day when she and Shen Rongyu went to Shuiyunfeng to investigate Jiang Qianke, Ye Duanhong was also injured by the Soul Chasing Nail, but her condition was much better, except that the right hand holding the book was injured and replaced with one. book in hand.

    Seeing Ji Qingzhuo come in, Ye Duanhong glanced at her one more time, and saw that she gently lifted her dress and sat down, the pale green petal-like skirt swayed, and the dark feeling brought by the black and gray dress was swept away.

    Ye Duanhong remembered the last time he saw Ji Qingzhuo, she was still held in Shen Rongyu's arms - what a formality, thinking that this dress was not prepared by herself, but Shen Rongyu took good care of her.

    Soon, Yingxiu also walked in with her head lowered, and all the disciples in the class were there.

    Ye Duanhong taught the water diversion trick today. Ji Qingzhuo already knew this spell, and Shen Rongyu taught it by hand.

    She listened to Ye Duanhong's teaching voice and saw the words on the spell book - "Sensing the surrounding damp water energy, even in a place without water, you can use the water diversion technique to extract the surrounding water energy into shape."

    Shen Rongyu also told her this. He held her hand, and cold water fell down, soaking the tulle on his sleeve and falling heavily.

    His chin rested on top of her head, and a low voice floated from his ears, he asked, "Zuo Zhuo, have you learned?"

    Ji Qingzhuo shook her head. She didn't know why she kept thinking of him. She began to think about how she could use the water diversion technique to save mana and reduce the time Shen Rongyu took to wind her up.

    Ye Duanhong gave her lectures, and she just calculated on paper, but this time Ye Duanhong passed by her again and saw the complicated data written by her, so she no longer interrupted her with words.

    Instead, the system became curious: "Host, when you first learned airborne art last time, you had to use pen and paper to calculate the beacon on the cliff, but later on White Water Island, I saw you cast airborne art to avoid it. All obstacles don't need to be calculated on paper at all..."

    Ji Qingzhuo's ink pen rested on the paper, and after a long time, she sighed and said to the system: "System, I solved a formation and brought me such a fatal disaster, if I didn't take the painstaking calculation process Write it down, what do you think of the reaction of the people in the sect?"

    "So you can actually do calculations without pen and paper. Are you pretending to write like this?" the system asked curiously.

    Ji Qingzhuo swiped the tip of the pen to draw a perfect circle on the paper—this is the pond Ye Duanhong wanted them to fill up with the Water Diversion Technique later, she said to the system, "Yes."

    During the class test, Ji Qingzhuo drew pure water because of the water diversion technique and filled up the circular pool prepared by Ye Duanhong, just using up all the mana on his body.

    Ye Duanhong also prepared for the class test with intention. The difficulty of his test is the same as the progress of the practice class. As the disciple's cultivation level increases, the difficulty of the test also increases.

    Ji Qingzhuo accepted the fact that her clockwork was loose. She leaned against the white stone beside her and rubbed her forehead. She felt a little dizzy because of the exhaustion of mana.

    Ye Duanhong stood beside her, holding the scoring book in his hand, watching the disciples who were tested behind cast spells to divert water one by one. The design of this pool is very tricky. There are many induction bubbles floating in the middle. If the water level rises, Soon, it will burst. When a novice learns spells, it is often not that the mana is insufficient, but that it is difficult to control it finely.

    Among all the disciples, Ji Qingzhuo was the only one who could subtly control the water diversion technique.

    Ye Duanhong took the time to glance down at her and observed that her mana had been used up. He raised his hand casually, and a small stream of spiritual energy flew towards her. As long as Ji Qingzhuo absorbed it, he could recover a little mana.

    But this bit of spiritual energy hit her, but was stopped, and was not absorbed by her meridians.

    All of them were not wrong at all in their initial judgment, Ji Qingzhuo had no immortal bones at all, her body was completely closed, and the spiritual energy outside could not enter.

    However, she has such a cultivation aptitude, how did she cultivate to the second level of Qi refining?

    Ji Qingzhuo still didn't understand what Ye Duanhong did. She only felt a gust of wind blowing towards her, but she didn't feel anything.

    "How did you cultivate?" Ye Duanhong's voice was cold and severe, which frightened Ji Qingzhuo.

    How did she cultivate...of course...that's how...

    Ji Qingzhuo was stunned, and she remembered that Shen Rongyu's consciousness and her were in the same cultivation space, and the red air flow completely wrapped her...

    She blushed suddenly, and lowered her head sharply.

    Ye Duanhong was a little puzzled when she saw the red glow on her face, so she didn't ask any more.

    The way the elders in each class calculate the grades of A, B, C and D is different. For example, Mu Ying gives the grades A without discrimination. Jiang Qianke and Qu Ting, the elders of the Royal Beasts Class, give grades A to the disciples who perform well. Ye On the other hand, Duanhong was different. He only gave one person a first-class, because only the disciple who completed the class test perfectly was eligible to get the highest score with him.

    Qiu Mingxue was too impatient when she was diverting water, and several bubbles in the pool were punctured. Yingxiu was absent-minded, and the results were worse than hers. Ye Duanhong gave Ji Qingzhuo a first grade on the score book.

    Before the Yukongshu class, it was Qiu Mingxue who got the first grade in the spell class every time. She stood by the pool and glanced at Ye Duanhong and then Ji Qingzhuo.

    "Elder Ye, after she used the Water Diversion Art, her mana was exhausted. If she was fighting against someone, it would be equivalent to her exhaustion after one move. How can you give her the first class?" Qiu Mingxue couldn't help protesting.

    Ye Duanhong paused as he scored points on the paper, and he raised his eyes, revealing ruthless thin lips: "Do you know how the cultivator massacred the cultivator after he escaped from the Yuan Duanlou?"

    "You only need one sword, one sword kills your life, you don't need a second move, people are already dead, what's the use of the second move?" Ye Duanhong asked Qiu Mingxue, "When desolation becomes a disaster to cultivate the Immortal Realm , you shouldn't be born yet, right?"

    Qiu Mingxue pointed at Ji Qingzhuo, still unable to swallow, but Ye Duanhong had already waved them away.

    Ji Qingzhuo, who kept her mind empty when she heard that the get out of class was over, and didn't hear what Qiu Mingxue was saying, immediately bounced off the white stone she was sitting on. She packed up and planned to slip away.

    Ye Duanhong stopped her: "Ji Qingzhuo, you stay."

    Ji Qingzhuo sighed, she thought that Ye Duanhong was still one of the suspects who wanted to kill her, and now he was suddenly detained, making her a little nervous.

    She was afraid that the system alarm would suddenly sound, and if Ye Duanhong killed her here, she would not be able to escape.

    Ji Qingzhuo was thinking about her own thoughts, her expression was a little stunned, Ye Duanhong's cold voice pulled her back to reality: "When the Water Diversion Technique ended, how did you deal with it to prevent the excess water from losing control of mana from running out of control?"

    "Ah?" Ji Qingzhuo didn't expect Ye Duanhong to ask her such a question after holding back for so long.

    The question asked by the elder had to be answered. She lowered her head and rummaged in her small bag, took out the piece of paper she had just calculated, and looked at her calculation process.

    "I reduced the output of mana by three points in advance. The magnitude of the reduction in mana output is related to the amount of water that was drawn out at the beginning. It needs to be adjusted dynamically. This calculation process can be applied to calculate." Ji Qingzhuo handed over the paper in his hand. Give Ye Duanhong.

    The information she wrote on the paper was very organized. Ye Duanhong was also a cultivator and knew the principles of spell application, so she could not even understand such a piece of paper.

    He understood, so he was even more surprised, because Ji Qingzhuo's calculation process can only be described as exquisite and unparalleled. The miniature version of the circular pool and the bubbles in the pool are also precisely scaled down.

    Ye Duanhong believes that he is already a very strict and cautious person, but Ji Qingzhuo's calculation method is more like a kind of machine than him, calm and accurate.

    He looked away from the paper and stared at Ji Qingzhuo.

    Ji Qingzhuo was very nervous. There was nothing wrong with her calculation process, but Ye Duanhong's attitude was very problematic. He was too fierce, and she was afraid of him.

    She widened her eyes, and her eyes fell on his hand holding the paper. She didn't dare to look at him with her eyes, her eyes covered with long eyelashes contained a faint wave of light.

    Although boring and inconspicuous, she is indeed vivid and cute, not the machine in Ye Duanhong's imagination.

    Ye Duanhong handed the paper back to Ji Qingzhuo: "It's time to go back."

    Ji Qingzhuo felt as if he had been granted amnesty, took the paper, turned around and ran away, finally leaving the get out of class.

    She stepped on her own flywheel and flew all the way to Elder Qiao Shu's Mingxin Lake for lunch. Many of the new disciples had already cultivated to the fifth or sixth level of Qi Refinement. It's a bit deserted here.

    Elder Qiao Shu steamed the steamed buns at noon, and there was a faint smoke wafting out of the bamboo house. When he saw the smoke, Ji Qingzhuo's stomach growled with hunger.

    She landed on the bamboo corridor, but at the end of the winding corridor, there was a person standing, dressed in white, with handsome and warm eyes, it was Shen Rongyu.

    Ji Qingzhuo called to him, "Senior Brother Xiaoyu."

    Shen Rongyu was looking down at the plant that Elder Qiao Shu had just cultivated. When he saw Ji Qingzhuo coming, he raised his eyes, and his pursed lips were slightly raised: "Zhaozhuo, how was the spell class?"

    Ji Qingzhuo put her small bag on the table. Seeing that Qiao Shu was still steaming buns in the kitchen, she was embarrassed to disturb him, so she walked to a place not far from Shen Rongyu and reported her class situation: "Ye The elder taught the trick of water diversion, and it happened that I already knew it."

    Shen Rongyu touched a clump of grass in front of him and called Ji Qingzhuo over: "Zhuzhuo, come and see."

    Ji Qingzhuo moved over, and she saw that the blades of grass that Shen Rongyu had touched were closed together, which was a very common mimosa.

    "Elder Qiao said that this plant is interesting, let me take a look and say I will like it." Shen Rongyu stroked the veins of the mimosa with her fingers. The plant had already closed its leaves and did not respond.

    Ji Qingzhuo saw that his hand was about to close the leaves of the whole mimosa in shock, so he spoke out to discourage: "Brother Xiaoyu, their leaves are all closed."

    Shen Rongyu held her wrist, and a faint spiritual energy passed to her. When he saw Ji Qingzhuo, he knew that her mana had run out again.

    He held her hand and took her to touch the blades of grass. At noon, on the shore of Mingxin Lake, the lake surface was sparkling, and the glittering sunlight illuminated the two figures harmoniously.

    The moment Ji Qingzhuo's fingers touched the mimosa leaf, she immediately bent. She didn't want to touch it, because the plant would respond to her touch.

    At the same time as her hands were bent, the leaves of the mimosa immediately closed, and the movements of one person and one plant were surprisingly consistent.

    "Zhuzhuo, I just said it looks like you." Shen Rongyu whispered.

    Ji Qingzhuo was a little ashamed, but she didn't want to show it, because if she showed it, wouldn't it prove that what Shen Rongyu said was true?

    She pulled her hand away from Shen Rongyu's palm and whispered, "I don't look like that."

    Ji Qingzhuo lowered his head, turned his back, and ran straight to Elder Qiao Shu's kitchen. The steam from the steamed buns in the kitchen was blowing toward her face, which could finally explain why her cheeks were hot.

    "Hungry?" Qiao Shu regarded cooking as a pleasure. If someone came to help him, he was not happy. He took the buns on the top layer and put them on the table, and explained to Ji Qingzhuo, " Wait until it's cooler before eating."

    "Elder Qiao." Ji Qingzhuo wanted to take revenge and complained directly, "Senior Brother Xiaoyu touched the whole pot of plants you planted and closed the leaves."

    "That stinky boy—" Elder Qiao wiped his hand on the apron, and hurried out to check.

    Ji Qingzhuo touched three steamed buns from the steamer, and it was a little hot, so she ate it in the room, accompanied by the bitter vegetable soup cooked by Qiao Shu, and she felt very satisfied as she ate it like this.

    Shen Rongyu was chased away by Qiao Shu, he had nowhere to go but came to Ji Qingzhuo's side.

    Ji Qingzhuo stuffed the steamed buns into his mouth and stuffed his cheeks bulging. Shen Rongyu pushed the bitter vegetable soup in the soup cup to her, and his bent knuckles touched the rim of the bowl.

    Qiao Shu brought a plate of buns and other side dishes. He cooked and ate it himself.

    "Rong Yu, do you want to eat too?" Elder Qiao Shu asked in a warm voice.

    "Okay." Shen Rongyu scooped a bowl of soup, and the sides of the bowls collided, making a clanging sound.

    Ji Qingzhuo felt that the pressure of this meal increased sharply, and she even spent more time chewing buns.

    Elder Qiao Shu likes to nag some chatter when he eats: "You live on White Water Island. Although I have strengthened the defense formation for you, you still need to be careful."

    "Didn't you catch that evil aura?" Shen Rongyu asked.

    "No." Qiao Shu sighed softly, "Although the erosion has been suppressed, the rest of the party has not been completely eliminated, and Xuanyunzong is not a completely safe place."

    When they were chatting, Ji Qingzhuo listened quietly, she didn't understand too much anyway.

    "The incident that happened ten years ago has not yet been found out who did it." Qiao Shu talked about the old things.

    Shen Rongyu didn't ask, but Ji Qingzhuo was scared and curious. Just like listening to a horror story, she swallowed the bun in her mouth and asked curiously, "Elder Qiao, what's the matter?"

    "Several disciples who have been in the door for a long time and passed the internal assessment have disappeared." Qiao Shu recalled and replied, "Their cultivation bases are all around the first and second tiers of Jindan, so it is unlikely that they have no means of self-protection, but They just disappeared silently, and no bones were found."

    Shen Rongyu lowered her eyes and drank the bitter vegetable soup in the bowl without speaking.

    "After a thorough investigation in the sect, I didn't find out who did it. The evil forces that oppose the sect of the orthodox sect still exist..." Qiao Shu's tone was helpless, "So Qingzhuo, they didn't let you enter at first, it is correct."

    "Xuanyunzong is not as safe as everyone imagined. Once there is a conflict with some evil outsiders, Xuanyunzong needs to confront them head-on, and there will inevitably be casualties. If it is too weak, there is no ability to protect itself. Maybe one day If you are targeted by wicked people, you may die in a corner that no one knows about." Qiao Shu sighed, "Qing Zhuo, if you perceive danger, you can go to Rong Yu."

    Shen Rongyu put down the soup spoon and made a "dang bang", and instead of Ji Qingzhuo, he said, "Okay."

    Ji Qingzhuo blinked, and she realized that it didn't seem to be absolutely safe in Xuanyunzong.

    In the world of immortality, the weak and weak are only allowed to be slaughtered. This is an undoubted fact.

    She was a little distressed, and even when she brought it back, she was a little uneasy.

    Shen Rongyu Yujian led her. He noticed Ji Qingzhuo's uneasy mood and asked, "Zuozhuo, it has been ten years, and similar things have not happened again, there is nothing to be afraid of."

    ——He had a subtext that he didn't say. Ten years was enough for him to control the sword under their feet that had killed countless people and drank blood.

    At that time, his cultivation base was completely scattered, and the Snow Burial Sword was also somewhat uncontrollable. He killed several Jindan disciples of Xuan Yunzong in a row. Fortunately, the Snow Burial Sword absorbed and swallowed their bones without leaving any traces.

    Ji Qingzhuo scratched her hair. To be honest, Elder Qiao Shu's story sounded like a horror story. After listening to it, she had a lot of stamina. She crouched down on the Snow Burying Sword, raised her head and said to Shen Rongyu, "But Elder Qiao said, the bones are gone."

    Shen Rongyu: "..." What's weird about this, being eaten by a sword is as simple as that.

    She lowered her head, many scenes of horror stories flashed through her mind, and the more she thought about it, the colder her back became.

    Shen Rongyu looked at her thin back and picked her up: "Elder Qiao didn't say it, if you are afraid, come to find me."

    Ji Qingzhuo also thought about it, those rotten remnants, no matter how terrifying, should not be more terrifying than the villain Shen Rongyu.

    She felt relieved, and took out something from the bag on her waist.

    "It's the ice spirit fruit." Ji Qingzhuo handed these crystal clear little fruits to Shen Rongyu and shared the knowledge he had learned in the beast mastering class, "Elder Qu said that Xuanshuang beasts eat this."

    She touched the smooth and cold surface of the ice spirit fruit and suddenly felt a little moved.

    When Ji Qingzhuo fed Mao Mao before, he usually ate a carrot for himself and a carrot for Mao Mao.

    In the class of beasts, seeing Xuanshuang beast eating so happily, she was actually a little moved, but she was not good at stealing the food of spirit beasts in class.

    But this time, she bought the ice spirit fruit herself, so she would be fine if she took a bite.

    So, she wiped the ice spirit fruit with her sleeve and asked Shen Rongyu, "Can I eat this?"

    It was the first time that Shen Rongyu met someone who wanted to grab food from a spirit beast.

    He had never tasted the ice spirit fruit, but he knew that the fruit was not poisonous. Since Ji Qingzhuo wanted to taste it, he couldn't disappoint her.

    So he nodded and said, "No poison."

    Ji Qingzhuo took a sip and grinned at the acid. The fruit is indeed not poisonous, but it is too sour.

    She took a bite of the ice spirit fruit in her hand with a pained expression.

    Ji Qingzhuo didn't have the habit of wasting food, and it was not easy to eat the ice spirit fruit after taking a bite, so she planned to finish it by herself.

    In fact, Shen Rongyu had been observing her, and seeing that she was so sour that she could not stop licking her lips with her tongue, but she continued to eat, so she took the ice spirit fruit from her hand.

    "Still eating?" he asked, and raised the ice spirit fruit a little higher.

    Ji Qingzhuo stood on tiptoe, trying to reach enough, but she was too short.

    She was a little anxious: "Brother Xiaoyu, you can't lose it."

    "I'll eat it for you." Knowing Ji Qingzhuo's stubbornness, Shen Rongyu said that if he wants to finish eating, he must finish it.

    "I've eaten this before. If you want to eat it, I'll give you a new one." Ji Qingzhuo thought, how could Shen Rongyu be allowed to eat the fruit she ate.

    But Shen Rongyu had already "clicked" a bite, the ice spirit fruit was very sour, but he was indifferent, and there was nothing strange on his face.

    He helped Ji Qingzhuo finish eating the ice spirit fruit: "Zuozhuo, is this all right?"

    Ji Qingzhuo's mouth is still saliva because of sourness. She looks at Shen Rongyu's thin lips, unable to understand how he eats it.

    "It's alright..." Ji Qingzhuo murmured.

    At this time, the two arrived on Baishui Island, and the protective formation stopped them.

    Shen Rongyu motioned Ji Qingzhuo to open it, Ji Qingzhuo thought of the seven-character formula, and Shen Rongyu himself was in front of her.

    She blushed and called out to Shen Rongyu: "Senior Brother Xiaoyu, turn around."

    "I can't hear it when I turn around?" Shen Rongyu laughed in a low voice.

    "Senior Brother Xiaoyu...you...you think..." Ji Qingzhuo stammered and read the formula next to Shen Rongyu, who had turned his back.

    The protective formation was activated, Ji Qingzhuo went to Shen Rongyu's side to feed him again, she brought a lot of ice spirit fruit.

    When feeding again and again, the little guy jumped up and down and rushed directly into Ji Qingzhuo's arms.

    Shen Rongyu grabbed its hind legs and pulled it out of Ji Qingzhuo's arms, and rolled on the ground again in anger.

    Ji Qingzhuo held a pile of ice spirit fruit and began to feed him, while Shen Rongyu sat on the bamboo platform in the center of the pool and lowered his head to wipe the Snow Burying Sword in his hand.

    When it was a little late, Ji Qingzhuo finished feeding, Shen Rongyu suddenly raised her eyes and asked her, "Zhuozhuo, are you practicing now?"
