I'm sending you

On Liaoqiao Peak.

Besides the grand hall where Zhong Qing resides, there are now several cultivation Holy Land-like buildings.

People come and go, with countless Disciples moving back and forth, cultivating within them.

Zhong Qing, meanwhile, leisurely stayed in his own grand hall, with an invisible barrier outside the hall.

It isolated all the noise.

Zhong Qing, who had reached the Returning to One Realm Third Heaven, was leaning casually on the long corridor outside the grand hall.

Several books were scattered around him, and a cup of light tea was placed close by.

Zhong Qing greatly enjoyed this rare leisure time.

Ever since he took in these more than two million good Disciples, Zhong Qing felt as if he had entered a retirement life.

Every day when he opened his eyes, his Realm would jump up.

Although his Returning to One Realm was different from others, his Realm improvement was not that fast.

But to personally see that vast ocean-like Qi Sea being continuously filled by trickles of Qi.

It was simply one word: refreshing!

This feeling was like receiving a pension every month on time.

To be honest, the boosts these Named Disciples brought him were not much less than what those old Disciples in the Eastern Region, who had the ten thousand times return, brought him.

Zhong Qing took a delightful sip of tea, the book in his hand rustling.

"Awoo!"

"Gak!"

At the end of the corridor.

Little Hei in the dog cage cried tears and howled at the sky, while Little Ga in the bird cage cried along with his big brother.

"Master! Didn't you always tell us to learn good things and not go to the Yihong Brothel?"

"We just want to quietly read books and cultivate our Heart-Nature now."

"But why, why won't you even let us read books!"

"And you even snatched our books away!"

Zhong Qing looked up, reluctantly shifting his gaze from the book in his hand.

What he held in his hand, and what was laid on the ground.

They were all popular novels that the Phoenix Feather Sect's 12th Elder had sent up a few days ago.

Things like 'Jin Ping Mei,' 'Purple Mansion Dream,' 'Nun's Wedding Talk.'

Everything was available.

Of course, the 12th Elder sending these up was not for Zhong Qing at all; he merely intercepted them when the 12th Elder was trading with Little Hei and Little Ga.

"You two beasts, do you even know how to read?"

"Reading books?"

"Can you even understand them?"

Zhong Qing grumbled, and with a backhand, he threw the 'Jin Ping Mei' he had just finished reading once.

It hit the dog cage, making it sway.

Little Hei whimpered aggrievedly. Yes, he couldn't read characters.

But that didn't mean he couldn't understand the illustrations!

Was it not okay to look at the illustrations?!

He was full of resentment, but it turned into aggrieved whimpers when it reached his mouth.

Little Ga poked his bird's beak out of the small cage and nudged Little Hei's butt through the dog cage.

"Big Brother, Big Brother..."

Little Hei turned his head and saw Little Ga's duck foot pointing at the 'Jin Ping Mei' that Zhong Qing had just thrown over.

"How sensible!"

Little Hei's eyes lit up, and his dog paw reached directly for the 'Jin Ping Mei.'

Just then, at the peak of Liaoqiao Peak, two figures walked over, one after the other.

"Eh? Master, your book fell."

Feng Buqun walked over first, picked up the book, glanced down, and quickly closed the pages with an unperturbed expression.

He immediately handed it to Zhong Qing.

He was afraid that Fang Buqiu behind him would see what his Master was reading.

Only, he didn't notice that Little Hei and Little Ga in the cage were already baring their teeth!

Awoo! Gak!

"Master, someone has come to visit you. He is the renowned Body Cultivator, Master Fang Buqiu, from the Chaotic Land."

"He is also a Returning to One Realm expert, but his specific Realm is unknown. A thousand years ago, he was an exceptionally strong Sword Cultivator in the Chaotic Land. Today, he has come to seek something from you."

Feng Buqun, who had approached, spoke respectfully, then lowered his voice and added, "But I think he's very suitable to be my Junior Brother!"

As Feng Buqun spoke, Fang Buqiu, who was behind him, was extremely discreet, seeing nothing else and hearing no other sounds.

He simply looked down calmly at the ground in front of him.

He didn't look forward any more than that.

But with this downward glance, he met the gaze of Little Hei and Little Ga in the cage.

For some reason, he read a hint of resentment from the eyes of these two beasts.

"Hmm?!"

"Fire Kirin?! Phoenix Yu Divine Bird?!"

Almost instantly, Fang Buqiu recognized the identities of the two beasts in the cage.

Such ancient Divine Beasts, actually kept in cages by someone?!

Even with his transcendent Heart-Nature as a Heavenly Sword Body, he felt somewhat in a trance now.

What kind of existence was the Master of the Phoenix Feather Sect, with its millions of Disciples?

In front, Zhong Qing had already closed the book. He looked at the excited Feng Buqun and nodded, signaling Feng Buqun to bring the person over.

Coming to his door to discuss cooperation?

What cooperation was there to discuss? If he became his Disciple, everything would be easy to talk about.

Feng Buqun paced back to Fang Buqiu. Fang Buqiu was currently immersed in surprise.

He looked at Little Hei and Little Ga, his eyes filled with shock. Feng Buqun let out an 'oh' and bowed to the two big brothers in the cage.

Then he looked back at Fang Buqiu.

"Master Fang, please come this way."

Fang Buqiu followed behind and quickly walked in front of Zhong Qing, but upon seeing Zhong Qing, his eyes immediately widened again.

The current Master of the Phoenix Feather Sect, the Master of millions of Cultivators in the Chaotic Land.

He was actually such a young man?!

Fang Buqiu, who had cultivated the sword and medicine, and also his Heart-Nature for a thousand years, had his composure thoroughly shaken. He involuntarily swept his Divine Sense over Zhong Qing.

This aura, it was indeed that of someone in their twenties, not the form of some old cultivation monster returning to their original state!

In this way, Fang Buqiu was even more startled.

Zhong Qing looked up at Fang Buqiu and smiled calmly, "Mr. Fang, is there something you need me for?"

As he spoke, Feng Buqun bowed to Zhong Qing, then nodded at Fang Buqiu, and directly stepped back and left.

Fang Buqiu's eyes trembled at this moment. This person was in his twenties, and though he couldn't fathom his Realm.

But to be so highly regarded by someone like Feng Buqun, and to be the Master of a million Disciples.

It already explained many things.

Even he, who thought highly of himself, had to admit that this person was truly a talent of heaven and earth!

"Fang Buqiu has come today to borrow a Venerable-grade medical classic from your sect to treat my incomplete Heavenly Sword Body."

"I, Fang Buqiu, know the preciousness of a Venerable-grade medical classic."

"If you can lend it to me, I, Fang Buqiu, am willing to serve the Phoenix Feather Sect for three hundred years, at your disposal, after I achieve the Venerable Realm!"

After some hesitation, Fang Buqiu spoke thoughtfully.

As he said this, Zhong Qing looked up and smiled faintly again.

"To be personally brought up by my seventeenth Disciple, Mr. Fang, you have connections."

"A Body Cultivator, that also counts as a medical worker."

"I, Zhong Qing, have always respected the white-clad angels."

"That medical classic, go ahead and browse it yourself. It's yours."
