The more the fairy suffers, the greater my cultivation will be

After Qin Shou subdued the strange fire, he left the Earth Fire Tower and flew towards the direction of the Elders' Pavilion.

When he arrived at Ye Linglong's door, he gently pushed the door and walked in slowly.

Ye Linglong was actually sleeping on the bed at this moment.

It was obvious that she was deeply shocked after the dispute with Xiao Huo in the alchemy room.

Qin Shou took the futon and found a place to sit down.

He was too busy recently. The alchemy competition was coming, and he had to hurry up to practice and reach the state of great perfection of Qi refining.

Just when Qin Shou was about to take out the Qi-Gathering Pill and swallow it, Ye Linglong, who was lying on the bed, suddenly called out, "Junior brother, come over and have a chat."

"Junior sister, what's up?" Qin Shou scratched his head, got up and walked to the bed.

Ye Linglong was lying on her side with her back to him on the bed, and her expression at the moment could not be seen.

"Sit on the bed."

"Ah?" Qin Shou thought he had heard it wrong. Every time Ye Linglong was in the room, she never allowed anyone to touch her bed.

"Are you deaf? I asked you to sit on the bed."

Ye Linglong's voice was still calm, but Qin Shou could hear a hint of sadness in it.

Qin Shou sat on the bed obediently.

Suddenly, Ye Linglong got up like a gust of wind, grabbed Qin Shou's arm with her jade hand, and pulled him to her side.

She plunged into Qin Shou's arms, and the two hugged each other tightly and lay on the bed together.

Soft sobs sounded in Qin Shou's chest, like weeping and complaining, like a thin needle piercing his heart.

Qin Shou's body stiffened slightly. He had never seen Ye Linglong so sad.

Ye Linglong's voice was like a resentful hum, slowly ringing in Qin Shou's ears: "Many years ago, my family suffered an unjust case and was ordered by the old emperor to exterminate the nine clans. At that time, I was still young and fled with Xiao Huo. After several life and death experiences, I was fortunate to meet my master and was able to join the Xianyun Sect. He is my only relative in this world."

"But why doesn't he believe me!"

"I'm obviously not in the alchemy room with you..." Her voice became lower and lower, and finally turned into a faint sigh, dissipating in the air like smoke.

Qin Shou then realized that Ye Linglong, who looked strong and competitive, also had such a weak side.

The suffering she experienced was heartbreaking for everyone who heard about it.

Qin Shou gently patted Ye Linglong's thin back and comforted her softly: "Senior sister, don't be sad, I am here, and Junior Brother will always accompany you."

Ye Linglong slowly raised her little head buried in Qin Shou's arms, and her red eyes stared at Qin Shou's eyes with a hint of expectation: "Will you really accompany me?"

Qin Shou touched Ye Linglong's little head distressedly and said gently: "Of course, Senior Brother Xiao doesn't understand you, Junior Brother, don't I understand you?"

Under Qin Shou's comfort, Ye Linglong gradually closed her eyes and enjoyed the warmth of this moment.

This feeling, just like being in her mother's arms, made her feel extremely at ease.

In a daze, she murmured: "Junior Brother... don't leave me..."

Then, her breathing became steady, and she fell asleep like this.

Qin Shou stretched out his hand and gently touched Ye Linglong's delicate face like a doll with his fingertips. The touch was smooth, but there was no impulse or animal desire in his heart.

"Senior sister, I won't leave you!"

After saying that, he lightly lifted the hair on Ye Linglong's forehead with his fingertips, bent down, and kissed her on the forehead.

Then, he hugged her and fell asleep peacefully on the bed.

On February 2, the dragon raises its head, the yang energy grows, and all things revive.

A grand alchemy competition for outer disciples is about to begin.

The originally peaceful Liehuo Peak has become very lively at this moment.

Disciples from other peaks are coming one after another to see this grand event.

There are five peaks in Xianyun Sect. In addition to the main peak, there are Zijin Peak, Linmu Peak, Ruoshui Peak, and Houtu Peak.

Usually, the five peaks are independent of each other, and the disciples in the peaks rarely have the opportunity to gather.

Today's alchemy competition for outer disciples gives them the opportunity to communicate with each other.

There are clouds and mists between the peaks. The disciples are dressed in various Taoist robes, either riding swords or walking.

Their expressions revealed excitement and anticipation. Some of them held precious spiritual materials, some held rare spiritual tools, and some displayed the talismans they had drawn.

On the top of the Fiery Peak, a wide open space was cleared and displayed in front of everyone.

Above the open space, at intervals, there was a mysterious and powerful earth fire formation.

These earth fire formations flashed with blazing light, as if they were flames burning deep in the earth.

They exist for the alchemy competition.

The disciples participating in the alchemy competition this time are not only from Liehuo Peak, but also from Linmu Peak.

You know, the art of alchemy requires the talent of wood spiritual roots.

Most of the disciples of Liehuo Peak have both fire and wood spiritual roots, while most of the disciples of Linmu Peak are pure wood spiritual roots, lacking the blessing of fire spiritual roots.

Therefore, the disciples of Linmu Peak need to rely on the formation.

This earth fire formation has become the key to their alchemy. Through the operation of the formation, they can obtain the fire source required for alchemy.

At this time, many participating monks gathered here.

At the same time, there are three chairs sitting on a high platform.

This is the referee's seat. Sitting on it, you can see every move of the participating monks below.

The participating monks are roughly divided into two groups, Linmu Peak and Liehuo Peak.

On the Linmu Peak side, Elder Lin Yu led the team himself. He was wearing a green robe, with a youthful face and white hair, and he looked like a hermit.

He was surrounded by many disciples of Linmu Peak. These disciples were all practicing wood-related skills, so they looked much more delicate and shorter than the well-developed disciples of Liehuo Peak.

On the Liehuo Peak side, since Elder Yaoyue was away, the important task of leading the team this time was given to Yaoyue's founding disciple, Ye Linglong.

Ye Linglong was wearing a capable tight skirt, which outlined her beautiful figure to the fullest. Her beautiful eyes swept across the room, and she said indignantly: "Smelly junior brother, the game is about to start, where have you been?"

An outer disciple behind her hurriedly reported: "Senior sister, we have sent someone to find Senior Brother Qin."

After hearing this, Ye Linglong nodded slightly and looked at the high platform.

The three chairs were empty, and it was unknown which three elders would come to supervise the game this time.

Suddenly, a cry of surprise exploded like thunder: "Oh my God! It's Fairy Zhixue, she's here!"

As soon as these words came out, it was like throwing a stone into the water, stirring up thousands of waves. Everyone on the top of the peak turned around and looked straight at the sky.

I saw a fairy-like beauty floating in, her figure was graceful, her clothes fluttering, as if she came from the clouds.

There was also a beautiful maid standing beside her, and the two walked together.

Everyone's eyes were infatuated, following their figures until they flew to the top of the platform.
