To be honest, Li Chuan felt a bit smug inside.

After all, Mu Yuling held a prestigious position as the Seventh Elder of the Yin-Yang Sect, ranking among the top ten in real power among tens of thousands in the sect.

Having someone of such stature argue on his behalf made him feel proud.

However, when Mu Yuling explained her reasons, Li Chuan realized he had overthought it.

Mu Yuling said, "Of course, it's for your sake. Our Yin-Yang Sect has always welcomed external cultivators, hoping to attract elite cultivators from all over the world."

"With your third level of Qi Refining strength, you managed to accumulate treasures worth over 50,000 Spirit Stones, making you an elite among Qi Refining cultivators."

The surrounding disciples were shocked when they heard the number from Mu Yuling and looked at Li Chuan in surprise.

Over 50,000 Spirit Stones, they might earn that much in their lifetime, but none had saved so much.

They were Foundation Establishment stage cultivators and considered elites among them, otherwise, they wouldn't be disciples of Mu Yuling, the Seventh Elder.

"But..." Mu Yuling deliberately dragged her words, seeing Li Chuan eagerly waiting for her next sentence, she suddenly pointed at the unconscious He Fenglin and said, "Take Fenglin to the Spirit Eye first, and I'll set up a Spirit-Calming Formation for him later."

The disciple supporting He Fenglin, seeing no one else respond, reluctantly replied, "Yes, Master."

He wanted to listen to the gossip too, but he was the one supporting He Fenglin!

After the disciple left with He Fenglin, Mu Yuling told the disciple guarding the mountain, "There's nothing more for you here, go about your business."

"Yes, Seventh Elder." The mountain guard disciple responded dryly and left.

Being driven away halfway through the gossip was really frustrating.

Li Chuan thought they could continue, but Mu Yuling turned to another disciple and said, "Chengzhou, Fenglin might not wake up for a day or two. Go to the Mission Hall and check what mission he took on this trip, and find out where he's been recently."

"Yes, Master." The disciple replied and walked away with a bitter expression.

Li Chuan's face twitched slightly, but what was the point of wearing a see-through outfit if you weren't going to say anything?

From Mu Yuling's attire, Li Chuan knew she liked to keep people in suspense.

After all, wearing a see-through outfit to tease others, making them restless but not giving them relief, wasn't that just keeping people in suspense?

He didn't expect Mu Yuling to be so good at it.

Stopping mid-sentence, didn't it bother her?

As Li Chuan was silently complaining in his heart, he felt someone poke his waist, followed by a gentle voice in his ear, "Why don't you ask? If you don't, Master will never say it."

He didn't know who was transmitting the voice, but it was definitely a senior sister.

And one who knew Mu Yuling's character well and was very curious about gossip.

She was probably often tormented by her master too.

Reminded, Li Chuan realized and spoke up, "Seventh Elder, it seems you haven't finished talking about your argument with the Fourth Elder..."

"Oh, look at this elder's memory." Mu Yuling patted her chest with a face of self-reproach.

Li Chuan's eyes widened involuntarily.

Why pat your chest instead of your head if your memory is bad?

Li Chuan discreetly touched his throat and swallowed secretly.

Why did he have to meet someone he desired when he was so poor?

Frustrating.

"Where was I? Oh right, you're considered an elite in the Qi Refining stage, but your potential is exhausted, and whether you can reach Foundation Establishment is uncertain."

She didn't mention Li Chuan's lifespan, seemingly confident that his strength would improve in the Yin-Yang Sect.

"But most importantly, your appearance greatly affects our Yin-Yang Sect's image, lowering the overall standard of our disciples."

"I didn't want you to join at first, but I couldn't win against the Fourth Elder."

"But it seems the Fourth Elder was right. If we hadn't accepted you into the Yin-Yang Sect, my fifth disciple might not have returned."

Hearing Mu Yuling's words, Li Chuan felt even more uncomfortable.

It would have been better not to ask.

Really just asking for a scolding.

What's wrong with a slightly poor appearance? Didn't he still win over the stunning Chu Mengyou?

Seeing several disciples around holding back laughter, he couldn't help but turn to look.

Beside him stood a female cultivator in a light blue robe, with a gentle face and a tall figure.

She was smiling softly, and when Li Chuan looked over, she immediately restrained her smile and nodded elegantly at him.

Li Chuan's gaze lingered on her before he looked away.

Her robe wasn't transparent, but it clung tightly to her body, perfectly showcasing her figure.

Li Chuan realized that the female cultivators of the Yin-Yang Sect were not to be looked at; each glance made him resent himself for not having Spirit Stones.

"Seventh Elder, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave." Li Chuan said.

Seeing but not having, what's the point? Better to leave early.

Mu Yuling said, "He Fenglin is not only my disciple but also a core member of the sect. You saved him, so you deserve a reward."

Search "pawℝead.com" for the original.

"Chu Xuan, take Li Chuan to receive a top-grade Treasure Artifact."

Li Chuan immediately heard a response from behind him, "Yes, Master."

"Junior Brother Li Chuan, come with me."

So the gossiping senior sister behind him was named Chu Xuan.

"Thank you, Seventh Elder." Li Chuan thanked Mu Yuling and followed Chu Xuan.

The power of magical treasures, from low to high, is: Treasure Artifact, Magical Artifact, Spiritual Artifact, Dao Artifact, Spiritual Treasure.

Generally, Qi Refining stage cultivators mainly use Treasure Artifacts, the wealthy use Magical Artifacts, and Spiritual Artifacts are considered divine in the Qi Refining stage.

As for higher-level Dao Artifacts and Spiritual Treasures, they're simply unimaginable.

A top-grade first-level Treasure Artifact is worth about three to five hundred Spirit Stones, with the exact value depending on the type of Treasure Artifact, usually with Treasure Robes being the most valuable.

Although Mu Yuling didn't specify the level of Treasure Artifact for Li Chuan, he knew it wouldn't be a second-level one.

Li Chuan thought Mu Yuling would reward him with a Treasure Artifact from her own storage, but Chu Xuan led him out of the peak.

"Sister Chu, where are we going?" he asked Chu Xuan.

Chu Xuan smiled, "Of course, to the Sect Treasury to claim your magical treasure. Doesn't Junior Brother want it?"

Li Chuan smiled wryly, these elders really knew how to be frugal, rewarding him with the sect's treasures for saving her disciple.

Using public resources was indeed convenient.

Soon, they arrived at the sect's treasure vault.

Although it was midnight, there was no concept of rest in the Yin-Yang Sect.

Even the Mission Hall was staffed around the clock.

After all, cultivators are different from mortals; meditation is rest, and unless they're in seclusion for a breakthrough, they can be at their posts all year round.
