15 Carefree Mountain

Seeing how vigilant she was on the wall, Chen Qing guessed that the spirit plant elder had asked her to guard him here.

The spirit plant elder had never gotten along with her granddaughter.

Who asked her to learn swordsmanship?

However, he was worried about her going out on an adventure, so he could only raise her at home.

However, if he kept her at home, the cultivation expenses would not be small.

Now that he saw that Chen Qing was about to have a Grass Spirit Butterfly, he had an idea.

After all, the girl was already so old. It was not good to keep her at home.

Even that Xiao Zhong had three concubines. With the Grass Spirit Butterfly, the two of them could easily provide cultivation resources1.

Actually, that was good too.

After all, this senior sister looked very pleasing to the eye.

When she reached for the steamed bun, her fragrance wafted into Chen Qing's nose.

He just didn't know what her personality was like.

Now, she looked like she didn't want strangers to approach her.

That was just as well. If she could get familiar with anyone, Chen Qing would feel a little uncomfortable.

He stole a few glances at that valiant senior sister, and heard the voice of the spirit plant elder outside.

"Yes, Mountain Lord. It started turning into a butterfly last night. I was afraid that something would happen, so I stayed up all night.

"From the looks of it, the situation is good. There's no problem."

As a middle-aged man in a sky-blue daoist robe walked into the courtyard, the beautiful senior sister jumped down from the wall. "Greetings, Mountain Lord."

The mountain lord looked to be in his forties. His face was very resolute, like unmelting ice.

In Chen Qing's memories, the mountain lord had always been like this. It was as if he had experienced too many hardships in the past.

However, it was rumored that the mountain lord was almost 100 years old.

The reason why he still looked like a middle-aged man was because he was a Foundation Building cultivator!

When he saw Yu Qingshuang, the mountain lord's stoic face finally changed slightly. He revealed an ugly smile. "Shuang'er, your martial arts are not bad. It seems that you've been cultivating very seriously recently."

Yu Qingshuang lowered her head and cupped her hands. "Thank you for your praise, Mountain Lord."

The mountain lord didn't say much. He went straight to Chen Qing, and reached out to hold his arm. "Yes, you've become stronger."

He did not ask about the Grass Spirit Gu turning into a butterfly. "What do you usually eat?"

Chen Qing said, "I'm living alone. Just making do."

The mountain lord said, "Young people still have to eat properly. After all, you are still in the Qi Refining realm."

Chen Qing cupped his hands. "I will follow the mountain lord's instructions."

The mountain lord walked into the room, and checked on the Grass Spirit Butterfly. He nodded in satisfaction. "Not bad!

"Very good!

"Very good!

Production disciples were the foundation of a sect's stability.

Without the disciples of the production department, the sect could only rely on fighting and killing to earn cultivation resources.

Once an accident happened, they would be reduced to ashes.

And a production disciple with a butterfly Gu insect was a core asset of a sect.

Every time a production-type disciple with a butterfly Gu insect appeared, it was good news for the entire sect.

At least his disciples knew that their cultivation resources were guaranteed.

It could be said that every production-type cultivator with a butterfly Gu insect was a sect's treasure.

After the mountain lord finished looking at the Grass Spirit Gu that was transforming into a butterfly, he asked, "Chen Qing, after your Gu insect transforms into a butterfly, what are your plans?"

Chen Qing cupped his hands respectfully, and said, "Disciple will listen to the mountain lord and the elder's instructions!"

The mountain lord laughed. "I'm asking what plans you have, not what arrangements I have!"

Chen Qing said, "I was brought back by Elder Chen. If it weren't for Carefree Mountain saving me from the war, there wouldn't be the current Chen Qing.

"Disciple is willing to listen to the mountain lord and the elder's arrangements!"

The mountain lord pondered for a moment. "Is that so?"

He turned around, and said, "Old Yu, call Old Chen over tonight. We'll have a drink together."

The spirit plant elder laughed heartily. "Then Old Chen is going to smile so much he'll sprain his jaw. Mountain Lord, you can't hide good wine this time."

The mountain lord and the spirit plant elder praised Chen Qing again before leaving.

At noon, the boy brought another sumptuous meal. It was not just for one person. It seemed that the beautiful senior sister would also come to eat.

This senior sister was only 23 years old this year.

As the boy brought over plates of good dishes, Chen Qing was wondering if he should call the senior sister who was guarding the wall when he heard a loud laugh.

"Hahahaha, I smelled this fragrance from afar!

"Is it Granny Yu's cooking?"

Chen Qing looked out of the door. It was a young man in his twenties. This person had a majestic figure, and his eyes were dignified without being angry. He had sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and looked rather heroic.

It was the mountain lord's grandson, Ye Yuntian!

On Carefree Mountain, this person was known as a dragon among men. At such a young age, he was already at the ninth layer of Qi Refining. He was only a step away from the Foundation Building realm!

Grass Spirit Gu turned into a butterfly, and even chickens and dogs ascended to the heavens2. Now, even such a dragon among people wanted to befriend him.

On the wall, Yu Qingshuang rolled her eyes at him. "You're here to freeload again."

Ye Yuntian laughed. "Not this time. I heard that my younger sister Shuang'er finally woke up, and hid herself a handsome companion3.

"I've specially come to see what kind of handsome man can obtain Sister Shuang'er's favor!"

Hearing this, Yu Qingshuang was immediately furious. Her pretty face was cold as she pulled out her sword and jumped down from the wall to stab at Ye Yuntian!

Ye Yuntian was not afraid. He turned around to dodge the sword, and clamped the blade with two fingers. "Sister Shuang'er, don't be angry. I was just joking."

Chen Qing hurriedly came out. "Greetings, Senior Brother."

Ye Yuntian laughed heartily. "Junior Brother, don't stand on ceremony. We're all fellow disciples!

"I passed by this place and smelled the fragrance of food. I came over to eat. Junior Brother won't be angry, right?"

Chen Qing smiled, and said, "Senior Brother, as long as you come, I have enough wine and meat. It's just that the next few days are more critical, so it's not good to drink."

When Ye Yuntian heard this, he laughed, and said, "Hahaha, after a few days, I'll hold a banquet for you at the Bright Moon Building. You won't go home until you're drunk!"

Hearing the words "Bright Moon Building," Yu Qingshuang was clearly a little unhappy. She snorted coldly. "Despicable!"

Chen Qing smiled. "Thank you, Senior Brother."

The three of them ate. Yu Qingshuang ate a little and left. Ye Yuntian did not stand on ceremony, and the two men ate heartily.

At the dining table, Ye Yuntian asked, "What kind of residence do you like? I'll arrange a place for you on the mountainside."

The elite disciples of Carefree Mountain lived on the mountainside. As for the peak, it was the main hall of the sect.

This was what Chen Qing wanted. He would live on the mountainside, protected by many senior brothers from the Hall of War Affairs with high cultivation levels. No one would dare to cause trouble.

Even if there were evil cultivators, it would be the senior brothers and sisters at the foot of the mountain who would be the first to get into trouble.

This was the benefit of joining a sect.

"I like cave dwellings, preferably caves4!

"I've been living in the cave abode all this time, and Grass Spirit Gu was able to advance there. I think it's already used to it."

Upon hearing this, Ye Yuntian pondered for a moment. "Alright. Since you like it, I'll set up a cave abode next to my residence. I guarantee that you'll be satisfied!"

It was not bad to live next to Ye Yuntian. After all, his cultivation level was the highest among the younger generation, and Chen Qing's safety was also guaranteed.

Anyway, they5 wouldn't know what Cheng Qing was doing at home.
