101: Bai Xiangling pays her respects.

"W-what happened to us?"

The fallen elders and disciples of the Hundred Flowers Sect groggily stood up.

They had just felt a tightness around their necks before all collapsing onto the ground.

"Hiss! My cultivation actually broke through to Earth Venerable Eighth Level!"

An elder of the Hundred Flowers Sect checked her body and let out a sound of shock.

She had been stuck at Earth Venerable Seventh Level for several years; she never expected to break through the moment she arrived at Qingtian Sect. It was truly a pleasant surprise.

"Ah! Broke through?"

Hearing the elder's voice, the other Hundred Flowers Sect disciples quickly checked themselves, then let out screams one after another.

"Hiss! I also broke through to Human Venerable Third Level!"

"My cultivation broke through to Human Venerable First Level!"

"Mine broke through too...!"

A group of people wore expressions of disbelief.

How did they break through the moment they entered Qingtian Sect? This was too fast, wasn't it?

"Enough! Stop shouting! What kind of decorum is this?"

Hearing the women's shouts, Bai Xiangling snapped back to reality and scolded them with a flushed face.

Didn't this group of old women check what kind of spiritual energy environment they were in?

With such terrifying spiritual energy, it was simply effortless for them to break through.

"Upper Sect Lord, these humble servants have never seen the world; please forgive them."

After reprimanding the women of the Hundred Flowers Sect, Bai Xiangling bowed apologetically to Li Big Saber.

Only now did she understand how powerful Qingtian Sect truly was. Leaving aside how many experts were within the sect, just this terrifying spiritual energy made it a cultivation Holy Land that everyone dreamed of.

If their impoliteness angered the people of Qingtian Sect and caused them to be driven out, they would miss a heaven-defying opportunity.

"No matter. It's normal to react this way when encountering something like this for the first time."

Li Big Saber waved his hand, smiling as he looked at Bai Xiangling, "Sect Master Bai, since you have arrived at Qingtian Sect, you should first pay respects to the Sect Master. Then I will tell you the cultivation matters and arrange your cultivation."

Since Bai Xiangling was the Sect Master of a Subordinate Sect and had arrived at Qingtian Sect, the first order of business was certainly to pay respects to Jiang Chen. He couldn't just arrange cultivation immediately.

"Thank you for the reminder, Lord. Please tell me where the Upper Sect Master is. This humble servant will go pay respects immediately," Bai Xiangling asked respectfully.

"Follow me!"

Li Big Saber called out to Bai Xiangling and walked towards the Qingtian Sect Main Hall.

"Wait here properly. Do not wander around and do not make noise. Everything will wait until I return."

Bai Xiangling instructed the elders and disciples of the Hundred Flowers Sect and quickly followed Li Big Saber's steps.

She was going to pay respects to Jiang Chen, and only one person was needed.

But she was truly worried about the women of the Hundred Flowers Sect staying here, so she had to give them orders to prevent them from causing any trouble for her.

"Yes, Sect Master!"

After the group responded to Bai Xiangling's retreating figure,

They looked around with faces full of curiosity.

After being scolded by Bai Xiangling, they realized that what had suffocated them and caused their breakthrough was the spiritual energy of Qingtian Sect.

They couldn't imagine how terrifying Qingtian Sect must be to possess such dense spiritual energy.

In such a dense environment, even the pigs of Qingtian Sect were probably more highly cultivated than them, right?

Qingtian Sect Main Hall.

Li Big Saber led Bai Xiangling to the entrance of the hall, then shouted inside.

"Reporting to the Sect Master, Bai Xiangling, Sect Master of the Subordinate Sect, has specially come to pay respects to the Sect Master!"

"Let her enter!"

Jiang Chen's slightly lazy voice came from inside the hall.

"Go in," Li Big Saber said to Bai Xiangling beside him.

"Yes, Lord!"

Bai Xiangling responded and stepped into the Main Hall with a nervous heart.

She had already prepared to offer herself when she arrived. Now it just depended on Jiang Chen's attitude; as long as Jiang Chen showed the slightest intention, she would offer herself without hesitation.

After entering the Main Hall.

What met Bai Xiangling's eyes was a scene of leisure.

Jiang Chen, the one she intended to offer herself to, was currently lying on a Rocking Chair, being waited on by a dignified and stunningly beautiful young girl.

Not only were the girl's temperament and appearance superior to hers, but Bai Xiangling couldn't even discern her cultivation level.

Given the terrifying spiritual energy of Qingtian Sect, there was no need to guess—the girl's cultivation was definitely higher than hers.

And yet, such a woman, who was superior to her in every way, was diligently serving Jiang Chen, not even glancing at Bai Xiangling when she entered.

Seeing this scene.

Bai Xiangling felt a sense of disappointment in her heart.

She had thought Jiang Chen was after beauty, but the facts proved that a powerhouse like Jiang Chen was certainly not lacking in beautiful women to serve him. Her idea might have just been wishful thinking.

"Bai Xiangling, Humble Servant of the Lower Sect, pays respects to the Upper Sect Master!"

Bai Xiangling shook off the thoughts in her mind, knelt on the ground, and saluted Jiang Chen.

"Oh? Xiao Bai is here. Rise!"

Jiang Chen lay on the chair, opened his eyes, and looked calmly at Bai Xiangling.

His impression of Bai Xiangling was quite good.

After all, she was the meritorious minister who helped him unlock the Subordinate Sect Template, and she had contributed an epic treasure chest to him. She would also contribute two more chests in the future.

Such a chest contributor must be vigorously cultivated.

"Thank you, Upper Sect Master!"

Bai Xiangling offered her thanks and stood up respectfully.

However, she didn't look at Jiang Chen, but kept her head lowered, waiting for him to speak.

Jiang Chen didn't make her wait long; his lazy voice immediately sounded.

"Xiao Bai, since you've come to Qingtian Sect, you must cultivate diligently. If you have any questions in the future, go find Elder Li Big Saber; he will handle them for you."

As soon as Jiang Chen finished speaking, Bai Xiangling bowed and replied, "Yes, Upper Sect Master. This humble servant will definitely cultivate diligently."

"Mhm." Jiang Chen nodded and continued, "You may withdraw now. Elder Li Big Saber will arrange everything for you."

He had Bai Xiangling come to Qingtian Sect specifically to give her a cheat code for cultivation, so he didn't waste much breath.

"Upper Sect Master, this humble servant takes her leave!"

Bai Xiangling performed a salute and slowly withdrew from the Main Hall.

She was now 100% certain that Jiang Chen was absolutely not interested in her body, because Jiang Chen hadn't spared her a second glance from beginning to end.

Since Jiang Chen wanted her to cultivate diligently, she could only repay Jiang Chen's grace by cultivating hard.

Seeing Bai Xiangling walk out of the Main Hall.

Li Big Saber stepped forward and said calmly, "Sect Master Bai, my surname is Li, and I am the Great Elder of Qingtian Sect. If you have any matters in the future, you can come directly to me."

"Come with me now. I will inform you of the matters and rules concerning the cultivation of the Hundred Flowers Sect disciples in Qingtian Sect."

After Li Big Saber finished speaking, he turned and walked toward the direction of the Teleportation Array, preparing to meet up with Bai Xiangling and the Hundred Flowers Sect people, and then read out the cultivation times and rules they must abide by.

"Yes, Elder Li!"

Hearing this, Bai Xiangling followed behind Li Big Saber with a stunned expression.

She had thought Li Big Saber was just a Deacon of Qingtian Sect, but unexpectedly, he was the Great Elder of Qingtian Sect.

Such a high-ranking individual personally receiving the people of the Hundred Flowers Sect truly made her feel flattered.
