I created Qin Tianjian in modern times

However, he did not agree immediately. Instead, he hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Highness is of noble status, and the path of cultivating immortals is extremely difficult. I wonder if Your Highness is fully prepared?"

Zhu Ji heard this and said with a firm look: "Master Qi, rest assured. Since I have decided to cultivate immortality, I have made all preparations. No matter how difficult the road ahead is, I will move forward courageously."

After hearing this, Zhao Qi's eyes flashed with admiration. However, he did not express his opinion immediately, but turned around and said to the disciple beside him.

"Take Her Royal Highness the Princess to the guest room to rest. I will make a decision after I consider it."

Seeing this, Zhu Ji felt a little disappointed, but still maintained a decent smile and followed her disciple to the guest room.

The sunlight shines through the gaps between the leaves, sprinkling onto the training ground in the back mountain of Qi Tian Sect.

Lu Xueyao, Liu Ruyan and Han Feng were sitting cross-legged, practicing their mental skills. Suddenly, Lu Xueyao opened her eyes, breaking the silence.

"Have you heard?" Lu Xueyao said mysteriously, "Princess Zhu Ji came to our sect yesterday."

Liu Ruyan also opened her eyes and asked curiously, "Oh? Is it the princess from Zhuzi Kingdom? What is she doing in our sect?"

"It is said that she wants to become a disciple and learn from you." Han Feng continued, with a hint of teasing in his tone, "I didn't expect that Her Royal Highness the Princess is also interested in our way of cultivating immortals."

"Hmph, I don't think it's that simple." Lu Xueyao snorted, frowning, "Don't you think that this princess came at a great time? Just after we had a conflict with the Blood Puppet Sect."

Liu Ruyan nodded and said thoughtfully: "You mean, she might be a spy sent by Zhu Ziguo?"

"It's possible." Han Feng said, "After all, the relationship between us and Zhuzi Country is delicate, and they have always wanted to infiltrate our sect."

"Maybe the princess is here to learn from her sincerely?" Lu Xueyao asked back, "We can't deny others' sincerity just because of our suspicions."

"Really? Look at the valuable gifts she brought with her. She doesn't look like she's here to learn skills. She looks more like she's here to build relationships." Liu Ruyan said disdainfully.

Han Feng laughed: "Haha, you girls are just sensitive. But then again, if she is really a spy, then we have to be careful."

"What are you being careful about? Our Qitian Sect is not so easy to be infiltrated." Lu Xueyao said confidently, "Besides, the Sect Master is so wise and powerful, he will definitely not let her succeed."

"That's not necessarily true." Liu Ruyan shook her head. "Don't forget, the Sect Master is also a man. When a man faces a beautiful woman, his IQ will plummet."

"Haha, you're right!" Han Feng laughed, "But I believe the Sect Master knows his limits."

As the three of them were discussing, a figure suddenly descended from the sky and landed in front of them. It turned out that it was Sect Master Zhao Qi who came to the back mountain to inspect the disciples' cultivation.

"Master!" the three shouted in unison.

Zhao Qi nodded and glanced at the three people: "What were you discussing just now? You were so engrossed."

Lu Xueyao hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell the truth: "Master, we are talking about Princess Zhuji who came yesterday."

"Oh? Do you think she is a spy?" Zhao Qi raised his eyebrows and looked at them with a smile.

The three of them looked at each other, and finally Lu Xueyao mustered up the courage to say, "Sect Master is wise, we do have this doubt."

"Haha, you guys are very vigilant." Zhao Qi laughed.

"But you can rest assured that I know my limits. I know exactly what Zhu Ji is here for, and I can tell at a glance whether she is a spy or not."

The three of them breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this. It seemed that the sect leader had already made up his mind.

"Okay, you guys continue practicing." Zhao Qi waved his hand, "Don't let this matter affect your practice progress."

After saying this, he turned and left, leaving the three of them to continue their practice in the back mountain. As time went by, the discussion about Zhu Ji gradually subsided, but this incident left a deep impression in their hearts.

In the following days, Zhu Ji's performance in the Qitian Sect was quite low-key and hard-working, which made everyone look at her with admiration.

Zhao Qi also remained vigilant and observant, waiting for the development of things.

In a quiet courtyard in the Qitian Sect, Zhu Ji sat in an exquisite pavilion, her eyes revealing an indescribable desire.

Her maid Xiaolian stood by carefully, fearing that any omission would anger the princess from the Zhuzi Kingdom.

"Xiao Lian, do you think it's possible for me to become a high-ranking leader of the Qi Tian Sect?" Zhu Ji suddenly asked, with a hint of reluctance and desire in her tone.

Xiaolian was stunned for a moment, then replied: "The princess is naturally beautiful, and with the support of the king, I believe she will be able to achieve something in the Qitian Sect."

Zhu Ji sighed softly and shook her head, "You don't understand. The world of immortal cultivation is about strength, not birth. Although I am a princess, I am just an ordinary disciple here."

As she spoke, a hint of jealousy flashed in her eyes: "Look at those female disciples, Lu Xueyao, Liu Ruyan, etc., not only are their cultivation profound, but their looks are also not inferior to mine. If I want to gain a foothold here, I must be more outstanding than them."

After hearing this, Xiaolian couldn't help but feel a little worried: "Princess, you are already so outstanding, why do you have to compete with others? What if something goes wrong..."

"Mistake? I, Zhu Ji, have never been afraid of any mistake." Zhu Ji interrupted Xiao Lian, a hint of stubbornness flashing in her eyes.

"Not only do I want to cultivate immortality, I also want to become a high-ranking member of the Qitian Sect, and even... marry Sect Master Zhao Qi!"

Xiaolian was shocked by Zhuji's ambition, but she knew the princess' temper and could not persuade her. So she could only stand aside silently and pray that the princess would be safe and sound.

Zhu Ji seemed to be lost in her own thoughts, and continued to talk to herself: "Master Zhao Qi, he is the most outstanding man I have ever met. I want to be his wife, fight alongside him, and protect the Qi Tian Sect together."

When she said this, a gleam of determination flashed in her eyes. But then she thought of something and her face became a little gloomy.

"However, those female disciples who are prettier than me are really annoying. They always attract the attention of Sect Master Zhao Qi, which is really unacceptable."

Xiaolian sighed inwardly when she saw the princess's mood change. She knew that the princess's ambition and jealousy were the two major obstacles on her path to becoming an immortal.

But she also believed that as long as the princess could overcome these inner demons, she would be able to carve out a place for herself in the world of immortal cultivation.

At this moment, footsteps were heard outside the courtyard. Zhu Ji and Xiao Lian turned their heads at the same time and saw a disciple of Qi Tian Sect walking hurriedly.

"Your Highness, the Sect Master asks you to go to the main hall." The disciple said respectfully.

Zhu Ji's eyes flashed with joy. Could it be that Master Zhao Qi was looking for her? She quickly stood up, straightened her dress, and said to Xiao Lian, "Come on, accompany me to the main hall."

Xiaolian responded and hurriedly followed Zhu Ji to the main hall. She prayed in her heart, hoping that the princess and Master Zhao Qi would have a good start this time. However, when they arrived at the main hall, they found that the atmosphere was a bit solemn. Master Zhao Qi sat in the main seat, frowning, as if something was bothering him.

Zhu Ji's heart tightened. Could something have happened? She hurried forward and saluted, saying, "Zhu Ji greets the Sect Master."

Zhao Qi looked up at her, nodded and said, "You are here, please sit down."

Zhu Ji sat down as she was told, but her heart was filled with doubts. She couldn't help but ask, "Master, has something happened?"

Zhao Qi sighed and said, "There have been some unusual movements in the Blood Puppet Sect recently. I suspect they might be unfavorable to our Qi Tian Sect."

Zhu Ji was shocked when she heard this. The Blood Puppet Sect was one of the evil sects in the world of immortal cultivation. What would she do if they really meant to harm the Qi Tian Sect?

She quickly said, "Master, do you need me to do anything?"

Zhao Qi glanced at her, with a gleam of admiration in his eyes.

"I'm glad you're willing to help the sect. But you can't help with this matter for now. I'll arrange for other disciples to handle it."

Zhu Ji was a little disappointed after hearing this, but she also knew that her strength was indeed not strong enough. So she could only nod and say, "Yes, Master."

Zhao Qi gave her a few more instructions, asking her to practice well and strive to become the backbone of the sect as soon as possible.

After hearing this, Zhu Ji secretly made up her mind to practice hard and contribute her strength to the Qitian Sect.

At the same time, you should also find ways to improve your charm and strive to realize your ambitions as soon as possible.

The sun shines through the clouds and onto the market of Zhuzi State, which is bustling with people.

Zhu Ji was wearing a gorgeous dress and walking in the alleys of the market. Her appearance seemed to add a bit of color to this bustling market.

"Your Highness, why do you come to the market in person?" a vendor asked in surprise.

Zhu Ji smiled slightly and said mysteriously: "I just came to listen to the rumors in the market and feel the atmosphere of folk life."

The vendor was immediately interested after hearing this, and he came closer and said, "Your Highness, you have come to the right place! This market has all kinds of news. The latest rumor is that the Blood Puppet Sect has a magic technique that can make people look young forever!"

Zhu Ji heard this, and a gleam flashed in her eyes. She raised her eyebrows slightly and pretended not to care and asked: "Oh? Is there really such a strange thing?"

"It's absolutely true!" the vendor said confidently, "I heard that the witch elder of the Blood Puppet Sect relies on this kind of magic to maintain such a young appearance."

Zhu Ji's heart was moved, but on the surface she still maintained the reserve and nobility of a princess. She chuckled and said, "This rumor is quite interesting, but it's just a rumor."

After saying that, she turned and left, leaving the vendor standing there in a daze.

Zhu Ji's heart was in turmoil. For her, eternal beauty was undoubtedly a huge temptation.

As a princess, she naturally hopes that she can stay young and beautiful forever.

"The magic of rejuvenation..." Zhu Ji muttered to herself, with a determined light in her eyes. She decided that she would find a chance to learn this magic no matter what.

So, in the following days, Zhu Ji began to secretly inquire about the news about the Blood Puppet Sect and the Rejuvenating Face Art.

She even spent a large sum of money to bribe some well-informed people in the market just to get more clues about this magic.

However, things did not go as smoothly as expected. As one of the evil sects in the world of immortal cultivation, the Blood Puppet Sect acted in a secretive way, and it was not easy to get access to their core secrets.

Although Zhu Ji was a princess, her identity did not bring her much convenience in the world of immortal cultivation.

However, Zhu Ji did not give up. She firmly believed that as long as she worked hard enough, she would find an opportunity to learn the magic of rejuvenation one day.

The night is hazy, and the moonlight shines on the mountain road, as if covering the quiet night with a mysterious veil.

Zhu Ji quietly left Qitian Sect under the moonlight, her heart filled with anticipation and anxiety. Tonight, she will secretly go to Xuegui Sect to look for the legendary rejuvenation magic.

After some twists and turns, Zhu Ji finally arrived at the entrance to the secret room of the Blood Puppet Sect.

She took a deep breath and knocked gently on the door of the secret room. The door slowly opened, and a gloomy voice came from inside: "Welcome to the Blood Puppet Sect, Your Highness."

Zhu Ji walked into the secret room and saw an old man sitting in the middle. His face was full of traces of time, but his eyes were shining with cunning light.

This old man is the witch elder of the Blood Puppet Sect, an evil master famous for his puppetry skills.

"Your Highness the Princess came to visit so late at night. I wonder why?" Elder Wu asked slowly.

Zhu Ji gritted her teeth and decided to speak frankly: "I heard that the Blood Puppet Sect has a magic technique to rejuvenate the face, which can keep a person's face forever. I...I want to learn this magic technique."

When Elder Wu heard this, a sly smile flashed in his eyes: "Oh? Your Highness Princess cares so much about your appearance, is it because the female disciples of Qi Tian Sect are prettier than you?"

Zhu Ji's face turned slightly red when she was told what was on her mind, but she still said firmly: "I am willing to pay any price to learn this magic."

“Hahaha!” The witch elder laughed. “Your Highness the Princess is indeed a smart person. However, learning the art of rejuvenation is not that simple. You need to go through some special training and tests.”

Zhu Ji nodded without hesitation: "No matter what the test is, I am willing to accept it."

A gleam of success flashed in Elder Wu's eyes. He slowly stood up and walked in front of Zhu Ji: "Then, Your Highness, please follow me."

Under the guidance of the witch elder, Zhu Ji began to learn the magic of rejuvenation. However, she did not realize that all this was a conspiracy of the witch elder.

During the learning process, the witch elder secretly used puppetry on her and gradually controlled her mind.

Zhu Ji seemed to be trapped in a dream from which she could not escape, and her consciousness began to become blurred.

In her dream, she saw herself with an eternal face, saw herself becoming a high-ranking official of the Qitian Sect, and saw the loving look Zhao Qi gave her...

However, all of this was just an illusion created by Elder Wu.

When Zhu Ji woke up from her dream, she found herself back in Qitian Sect. (End of this chapter)
