"Don't worry, I kept it a secret for you before they came back, let alone after they came back." Yunxiao said solemnly.
Even if Ye Liuyun is a genius in alchemy, he is the alchemy genius of their Yunxia Sect, so naturally he cannot be discovered by the people of the Yun Sect.
Although they were forced to let them return to the Yunxia Sect, there was no way they would regard them as disciples of the Yunxia Sect.
"Thank you very much, Elder. Aoxue, let's go." Ye Liuyun thanked with satisfaction.
After she finished speaking, she and Lin Aoxue left the Medicine Pavilion. As for Li Jianxin, he no longer needed any flying magic tools to fly over the martial arts field. His arrival made Yun Ling and the top leaders of the former Yunxia Sect quite excited.
Among this generation of disciples, a leader has finally emerged.
Li Jianxin first glanced at Yun Yun and then at Yun Ling, and finally locked onto He Zhiqiu with a cold gaze.
He Zhiqiu's face looked extremely ugly. He couldn't understand what had happened to Li Jianxin.
But this grudge is definitely bigger. Based on his understanding of Li Jianxin, this guy will definitely seek revenge on him.
Li Jianxin stared at He Zhiqiu and the returning disciples for a while, then flew away. He didn't like noisy environments.
After he left, everyone present started talking about it. Of course, the voices were very low, after all, they were still in the willpower assessment stage.
“Li Jianxin, Second Senior Brother’s second disciple, I’m very curious. This boy should have very good talent. Why didn’t the Sect choose him back then?” Yun Che said doubtfully in his heart.
As for the cultivators from the other three sects, their expressions were also not particularly happy, because the Yunxia Sect had completely surpassed the other three at this moment.
Among the disciples of their three families of this generation, no one has broken through the Dao Palace yet, but the Yunxia Sect has. Zi Lan and others were a little envious for a moment.
"Master Yun, congratulations, the Yun Sect has a successor." Master Xi Ri congratulated.
“Good, good. Among the new generation of disciples, someone has broken through the Dao Palace. Wow, it seems that they are no worse than some people who have been in the Yun Sect for decades.” Sect Master Yanchen said sarcastically.
His words were a mockery of the returning disciples from his own family as well as the returning disciples from the other three families.
"Senior Yanchen, what you said is wrong, isn't it? It is true that Li Jianxin broke through the Dao Palace, but he cannot be called the successor. Don't forget, he is not the young master of the Yunxia Sect." Qi Chaoying retorted.
When Yanchen heard this, he glanced at Qi Chaoying and then chuckled strangely, which seemed to carry a hint of contempt.
Chapter 77 I can't go back
Yanchen's contemptuous smile made Qi Chaoying feel uncomfortable immediately.
Soon, the willpower test was over, and this time the results were again surprising, because the majority of disciples who passed were still from the Yunxia Sect.
This is all thanks to Ye Liuyun. The thundercloud phenomenon she produced while refining medicine over the years has caused thunder to roar every now and then. If the disciple did not have a strong will, he would have gone astray long ago.
The three major sects were embarrassed again for a moment. This could only mean that the quality of the new generation of disciples in the Yunxia Sect was indeed better than those of the other three sects. As for why, they had no idea.
Yun Che and other returning cultivators also couldn’t understand why the quality of Yunxia Sect’s disciples was on average better than that of the other three sects.
There must be a reason for this, but it is very simple to investigate. At night, Yun Che summoned all the returning cultivators at the elder level to discuss the situation of Yunxia Sect with him.
In Yun Che's temporary residence.
Some of the residences for these elders and returning disciples need to be rebuilt, so they are temporary for the time being.
"Deputy Sect Master, what happened in the Yunxia Sect that we don't know about? Didn't you ask Yun Yun?" asked a cultivator of the third level of the Taoist Palace.
But Yun Che immediately glared at the elder with displeasure.
“Elder Feng, who allowed you to address the Sect Master by his given name? Have you all been in the Yun Sect for too long and forgotten your own surnames?” Yun Che reminded.
"Eh? Deputy Sect Leader, there are only us here, no outsiders. Why be so serious? We all know the purpose of the sect sending us back." The elder surnamed Feng said awkwardly.
But Yun Che didn't think so.
“First, the upper sect did ask us to come back and take control of Yunxia Sect, but they also said that we can’t go too far. Do you understand what it means to not go too far?” Yun Che asked.
Indeed, the method used by the Yun Sect was a very gentle conspiracy. They sent so many outstanding disciples at once. As long as they put some effort into it, it would be easy for them to take over the Yunxia Sect. But the prerequisite is that these people must regard themselves as members of the Yunxia Sect and then put in some effort to gain the recognition of the sect's disciples.
The current arrogant and condescending attitude will only backfire.
"Let me warn you first. The order from the upper sect is to take control of Yunxia Sect without bloodshed, not to let you come back to show off your power. I hope you can restrain your condescending attitude. If I find He Zhiqiu doing this again, don't blame me for being rude."
“Also, starting tomorrow, I don’t want you to still be wearing the Yun Sect’s disciple uniforms. We’ve been away from the sect for so long, and we can’t be accepted by the sect master and his men. It’s inappropriate for you to still be showing off by wearing Yun Sect’s uniforms,” Yun Che warned.
Everyone looked at their clothes and felt helpless for a moment. They could only nod and say yes.
At the same time, Ye Liuyun had already separated from Lin Aoxue and returned to their residence.
At Ye Liuyun's residence, she opened the booklet where she recorded the ingredients of the elixir and found the prescription that had turned her into a woman.
These medicinal herbs are just ordinary herbs. Ordinary herbs can be synthesized to make this magical elixir, not to mention spiritual medicine.
The medicine synthesized from this prescription cannot form a pill. Ye Liuyun refined it several times in the past, but unfortunately he did not change himself back into a male. In other words, this medicinal ingredient may only be able to change a female but not a male.
"What evil thoughts are you thinking, kid? Why did you find this medicinal material again?" Lin Qingyou asked when she saw Ye Liuyun's gloomy eyes.
"I just suddenly felt that this prescription might have other uses. I want to try using similar spiritual medicine to refine this prescription and see what I can produce." Ye Liuyun replied.
When Lin Qingyou heard this, she immediately reminded him.
"Boy, your prescription combines more than a dozen medicinal materials. If you replace them with more than a dozen spiritual medicines, something incredible might happen." Lin Qingyou said.
"There's no other way. I don't have any worldly medicinal herbs right now, and I'm not sure whether worldly herbs will be effective for immortal cultivators. So the best way is to try using the existing spiritual medicines. That's it. Let's talk about it after the linkage between the four sects is over." Ye Liuyun said seriously.
Lin Qingyou seemed to have guessed what Ye Liuyun was going to do.
"Boy, you're not planning to use this thing to deal with the enemy, are you?" Lin Qingyou said with a twitching mouth.
Ye Liuyun chuckled.
"I think that, in many cases, killing people you don't like is a sign of incompetence, because there are too many people you don't like in this world, and you can't kill them all. Since you can't kill them all, why not use another method, such as forcibly cutting off their unnecessary thoughts? This is the way of a benevolent person."
"I'm an alchemist. Killing is not my strong point. Curing diseases and saving people is my strong point. I think that guy is sick and needs to be cured." Ye Liuyun said.
When Lin Qingyou heard this, she was stunned for a moment, and then she couldn't help but covered her mouth and laughed.
"Hehehe...you, you have ideas, and they make sense. Okay, as your teacher, I support your ideas." Lin Qingyou agreed with Ye Liuyun's words.
Ye Liuyun began to search for elixirs that could perfectly replace worldly herbs from the herbs he had stored.
She can currently find half of the replacements here, and for the other half she will probably have to go to the disciple market or the alchemy pavilion.
"Water Spirit Grass, Moon Essence, Jackdaw Grass...these seem to be some negative herbs. No wonder this prescription made me become like this. But I did the opposite before and tried several times with completely opposite herbs, but it still didn't work."
"Master, tell me honestly, the reason why it has no effect on me is related to the technique I practice?" Ye Liuyun felt that he needed to ask Lin Qingyou.
"what?"
When Lin Qingyou saw Ye Liuyun asking this question, she felt embarrassed for a moment, because she actually knew a long time ago that there was no hope for Ye Liuyun to change back. She didn't tell her just because she didn't want to discourage Ye Liuyun.
After all, Ye Liuyun had not yet adapted to this new body at that time.
But now that Ye Liuyun has asked, she seems unable to keep it from Ye Liuyun forever.
"Hey! Okay! It seems that you, kid, have already noticed something. Then I won't hide it from you. When you turned into a woman, you had not practiced the Eternal Youth Art, and you did not refine the antidote in time. After you successfully practiced the Eternal Youth Art, these drugs that act on the body will be useless to you. They will only be swallowed up by your body." Lin Qingyou explained.
As soon as these words came out, Ye Liuyun felt like he was struck by lightning and suddenly felt a headache.
She recalled carefully that not long after she became a woman, she had mastered the Eternal Youth Technique.
No wonder, she clearly matched the drugs that were in conflict with each other, but they had no effect on her.
"So that's how it is. But why does the love medicine work on me?" Ye Liuyun asked again.
"Because the Albizzia julibrissin works here." Lin Qingyou pointed to her head.
"this?"
"Then why does the poison work on me?" Ye Liuyun asked again.
"Because the highly poisonous medicine eats dead people, and the effect of the Eternal Green Art is resurrection." Lin Qingyou explained further.
Having said that, Ye Liuyun was completely helpless.
Fortunately, she has adapted to this female body. If Lin Qingyou had told her this result back then, she would probably have gone crazy.
Chapter 78: The Four Sects’ Martial Competition
After hearing the result, Ye Liuyun was not as irritable or angry as imagined, but instead sighed heavily.
"Hey!"
This sigh made Lin Qingyou confused.
"Why are you sighing? If you are unhappy, I will allow you to scold me today. After all, I also have responsibilities." Lin Qingyou looked at Ye Liuyun's abnormal appearance and couldn't help but say.
But Ye Liuyun's sigh was not because she was lamenting that she could not turn back into a man, but because she was thinking about what Lin Aoxue's reaction would be if she knew about this. Would she be disappointed?
"What's the point of scolding you? I can't change back. I'm just thinking about how to explain it to Aoxue. Although I know she will eventually accept this result, she will definitely be sad." Ye Liuyun said with some melancholy.
Seeing Ye Liuyun's attitude, Lin Qingyou stopped talking nonsense.
Because she realized that Ye Liuyun is no longer the young boy he used to be. Although he keeps saying that he wants to become a man again, in reality, he doesn't seem to have such a strong desire.
Lin Qingyou's words today directly killed Ye Liuyun's last thought, and she finally didn't have to worry about anything anymore.
She has been trapped in this woman's body for almost ten years. No matter how unwilling she is, it is meaningless. At this moment, Ye Liuyun's mentality has changed.
Her life goal is no longer to work hard to become a man again.
Her current goal is to live a carefree life with Lin Aoxue without being affected by any factors, or to strive for this goal.
So, in order to achieve her goal, she must do everything she can to help Lin Aoxue and make her strong quickly.
There was no way. With Lin Aoxue's training speed, she might become stronger within a certain period of time, but she couldn't. One of her and Lin Aoxue had to grow up quickly.
Someone has to act as the other person's safe haven. With her current ability, she is destined to not be able to serve as Lin Aoxue's safe haven. She can only be a capable assistant to Lin Aoxue.
On the second day, it was finally time for the most interesting event of the four sects' collaboration: the martial arts competition.
In yesterday's test of willpower, only more than 300 people made it to the end, which means that nearly 700 people were eliminated in the first two levels, especially in yesterday's test of willpower, which eliminated more than half of them in one go.
However, if you fail the second level assessment, there is no punishment, but there is no reward either.
Among these more than 300 people, half of them are from Yunxia Sect. In other words, the third level of the assessment is almost a one-man showdown between Yunxia Sect and the three major sects.
Currently, all the disciples who have passed the willpower test are standing in the center of the martial arts field, waiting for the sect elders to speak.
The leaders of the four major sects looked at each other and then stood up at the same time.
As the host, Yun Yun was definitely the first to speak.
“First of all, congratulations to all the disciples from the four sects who have passed the second level of the assessment. The next assessment is a practical assessment, and it is also a competition between the new generation of disciples from our four major sects. I hope you will work hard and strive to get a higher ranking.” Yun Yun said with a smile.
After she finished speaking, Zi Lan also spoke, but she didn't say so many polite words because their three families were already very embarrassed.
"Hmph! I won't speak politely like Sect Master Yun. People from the Zi Lan Sect, you have to do your best to make me proud. More than 300 people came to take the assessment, but only a few dozen are left. It's so shameful. If you don't get a good ranking in the final stage of the actual combat competition, I will have to train you personally after returning to the sect." Zi Lan said seriously.
These words made the disciples of Zixia Sect feel very aggrieved, and at the same time, they all hardened their minds. When the fight started, they had to fight to the death, otherwise they would have no good days when they returned to the sect.
The leaders of the Yanxia Sect and the Xixia Sect did not say anything harsh. They just said, "Just do your best."
The next step is to draw lots to match opponents. Since there are more disciples in the Yunxia Sect, the chances of them being matched with their fellow disciples are very high.
After a year of training, Ye Liuyun's physical strength has not broken through the bottleneck and is still at the peak of the Lingxi Realm, but her speed has improved to a higher level.
Lin Aoxue stood calmly beside Yun Yun and looked at Ye Liuyun. Ye Liuyun and the others went on stage one by one and took a label from Yun Cheng.
They have already arranged in advance how to match the disciples, and when the time comes they just need to compete according to the matched numbers.
More than 300 people drew lots and it was over very quickly.
"Alright, the Four Sects Martial Competition will begin immediately. Please look at the numbers on the labels in your hands. The owner of the number I will read out will go on stage to compete. The old rules still apply. You cannot use external forces that exceed your current realm. In other words, the weapons and other consumable magic tools you use cannot exceed the human level. The competition ends when the time is right, and no one's life can be harmed."
"Okay, the rules have been read out, and next is the first match of the four sects' martial arts competition. Now, number one and number two will go on stage to compete." Yun Cheng shouted directly in numerical order.
As soon as these words were spoken, the competition officially began. Today's competition was still worth watching and was definitely more interesting than yesterday's and the day before yesterday's competitions.
Ye Liuyun glanced at her label number. She was number 66, so it was not her turn yet, but it would be soon.
"66, oh, I like this number, it's a lucky number." Ye Liuyun said with a smile, then turned his gaze to the stage.
Number one and number two have already come on stage. The one who drew number one is a disciple of the Zi Lan Sect, and number two is a disciple of the Yun Xia Sect.
These two families are really enemies, and the most important thing is that these two people know each other.
"It's you? Last time in Liuyang Mountain Range, you were the one who hit me on the head with a rock. Today, I'm not so lucky." The male disciple of Zixia Sect immediately felt familiar with the disciple of Yunxia Sect when he saw him.
The Lingxi Realm disciples of their two families had fought each other not long ago, so it was not surprising that they had met each other.
"Ah? Why don't I remember seeing you before? Who are you?" The disciple of Yunxia Sect looked confused.
When they started fighting, he had no time to pay attention to who he was beating. Only the person being beaten might have a slightly deeper impression.
