“If you're really unwilling, your Master would rather spill blood all over this

Hundred-Thousand-Li Giant Lake than let your reputation be tarnished,”

At this moment, Xu Fan's voice, full of protective devotion, reached Li Xingci's ears, moving him deeply. Then he reacted.

“Master, your life is much more important than my integrity,” Li Xingci said emotionally.

“As long as you know, now hurry and go attend to the guests,” Xu Fan's voice leisurely floated over.

“It seems the Sect is about to welcome a VIP.”

“As for integrity, that's something you must handle yourself; your Master can't stick his head out for you in this matter,” Xu Fan sat cross-legged on his bed, cackling.

Early in the morning, after Xu Fan finished the breakfast Lei Wenxi sent, he saw the anxious Zhou Kailing.

“What do you need to find your Master for?” Xu Fan asked. When it came to Zhou Kailing, he took the free-range-method of teaching, otherwise known as hands-off approach.

A cultivator gifted with the Creator Master's talent could best learn by observing and pondering various techniques and divine abilities. As time goes by, he would gradually develop his own set of theories for creating techniques and divine abilities.

“Master, can I have some Spirit Stones?” Zhou Kailing asked cautiously.

“What for?” Xu Fan asked curiously. Currently, the Hidden Spirit Sect allocates a certain number of points to disciples each month. If they need Spirit Stones, they can exchange their points for them.

After Xu Fan and Pu Tao's meticulous calculations, the monthly allocated points were more than enough for their current expenses.

“l want to buy some Spirit Material and treasures of the Five Elements to experiment,” Zhou Kailing said.

“Oh, what new discoveries have you made?” Xu Fan asked with interest.

“There's no theoretical basis yet, Master. You should take a look,” Zhou Kailing suggested, taking out a small bag filled with powder.

“l just finished eating. Don't use any of those disgusting techniques against me,” Xu Fan said hastily. Although Zhou Kailing was raised freely, Xu Fan still gave him some attention.

Xu Fan's attention to Zhou Kailing came with a consequence – he must never become enemies with this disciple in the future.

Because the self-created techniques and divine abilities were utterly nauseating.

“Alright, this time I will use a proper technique.”

Zhou Kailing gripped the little bit of powder in his hand and began to form seals.

“That's the seal for the Ice Spear Skill,” Xu Fan noted as he watched Zhou Kailings opening move, a technique that he himself had improved upon.

Xu Fan's small courtyard began to surge with water spirit energy. With the completion of Zhou Kailings seal, an ice spear several times larger than the standard size appeared beside him and was instantly shot towards the distant mountainside.

The ten-meter-long ice spear tore through the air and slammed into the distant mountainside.

'Boom~.'

In an instant, the entire mountainside was frozen. It quickly crumbled into powder along with the small mountain peak, falling to the foot of the mountain.

Xu Fan gently sprinkled some of the powder that Zhou Kailing had just used into the air and formed seals with intention.

A giant ice sphere with a diameter of ten meters appeared in the sky. The temperature in Xu Fan's courtyard on the hillock instantaneously dropped below zero degrees Celsius.

Xu Fan pointed lightly at the sky, and the large ice sphere above burst into flight in an instant.

'Boom~.'

The ice sphere only flew to the top of the Mountain Guard Array before exploding into a flurry of snowflakes, which descended between the mountains.

For a moment, the entire Hidden Spirit Island was blanketed with a layer of white.

“This is made from the shell of a Deep Lake Ice Shrimp mixed with Spirit Stone powder and Water Condensation Bead powder, the cost is about 10,000 Spirit Stones per kilogram.”

“It's enough for you to cast your Ice Spear Skill more than 600 times with a power increase of six times. However, the maximum increase in the Spirit World node is also six times. Any more and the casted technique will self-destruct.'

“Not bad, it's valuable and promising,” Xu Fan said. He had used similar methods before but never studied them more closely.

“How many Spirit Stones do you want? Just say it boldly,” Xu Fan looked at Zhou Kailing with satisfaction, not expecting this free-ranging disciple to surprise him.

Hearing Xu Fan's words, Zhou Kailing summoned the courage to hold up one finger.

“Ten million Spirit Stones.”

Upon hearing Zhou Kailings request, Xu Fan felt a bit bitter. He hadn't given his official disciples much pocket money, let alone this younger Zhou Kailing. Xu Fan took out a Storage Bag and handed it to Zhou Kailing.

“This is one hundred million Spirit Stones. Your Master has neglected you in the past,” Xu Fan sighed as he spoke.

“Master, are these Spirit Stones really for my research?” Zhou Kailing excitedly asked, not minding the neglect from his master.

“Of course, you will need to develop a full set of attributes for this kind of powder that enhances the power of spells in the future.”

“By then, the power of our Hidden Spirit Sect disciples' spells should increase by several times, providing us a safety guarantee when going out.” Xu Fan said.

“l understand, Master. Give me one year, and I will definitely research all the attributes of the spell powder.” Zhou Kailing promised.

“Hmm, go ahead.” Xu Fan nodded.

Xu Fan checked the time and asked, “Pu Tao, has Star Ci set off yet?”

“She has already arrived at Linsen Immortal City. It's half an hour away from the scheduled time.” Pu Tao said.

“That's good. I don't know if her arrival is a blessing or curse.”

At Linsen Immortal City, Li Xingci stood outside the teleportation array, waiting for Su Rentian, her expression calm.

Ignoring the factor of cultivation level, Li Xingci is very knowledgeable about women. With his experience over several lifetimes, he dared to say that he could see the true feelings of most women in the Immortal World.

As for how to reject this cultivator who was hundreds of years older than him without provoking her anger, Li Xingci already had a plan in his mind.

While Li Xingci was thinking, a stunningly beautiful female cultivator in a red cloak walked out of the teleportation array.

Her expression was cold, but she smiled when she saw Li Xingci, instantly blooming like a hundred flowers.

“Greetings, Senior.” Li Xingci respectfully said.

“Good, let's return to Hidden Spirit Island.”

“Although I haven't moved into the small courtyard designed by Star Ci for me, 1 have an unrelenting so fond of it.”

Su Rentian did not have the demeanor of a Nascent Soul cultivator, but rather seemed like a young girl just starting her journey.

“l will take Senior back to Hidden Spirit Island as soon as possible.” Li Xingci nodded.

“Alright.”

At the Main Peak Dojo of the Hidden Spirit Sect, Xu Fan was waiting for the two.

“Master, do you think that the Integration Stage senior really has taken a liking to Fourth Junior Brother and won't use him as a furnace tripod?” Xu Yuexian doubted by Xu Fan's side.

She had traveled through the Cultivation World for many years, and it was not uncommon to see high-level female cultivators abduct young and handsome male cultivators to use as furnace tripods.

“No, Elder Su is a member of the Elders Association and definitely won't do such despicable things.”

“Moreover, didn't you notice how genuine the look in Elder Su l s eyes seemed when she saw Star Ci?” Xu Fan said with a smile.

“Genuine? Really infatuated?”

“Probably so.” Xu Fan said.

At this moment, a spiritual boat passed through the Mountain Guard Array of Hidden Spirit Island and arrived in front of the Main Peak Dojo.

“Welcome, Elder Su, to stay at our Hidden Spirit Sect.” Xu Fan stood up to greet her.

“Great Master, no need to be so courteous. I just came here for a short stay, and I might settle here permanently later,” Su Rentian said gently.

“If Elder Su likes it here, it would be our honor for her to stay permanently.” Xu Fan replied politely.

After meeting with Xu Fan, Su Rentian went to the small courtyard designed by Li Xingci for her, eager to move in.

“Could it be that she really likes that small courtyard?” Xu Fan wondered.

With an Integration Stage cultivator added to the sect, all the things that could not be exposed on Hidden Spirit Island were moved to the Underground Space.

Xu Fan had completely changed the formation in the entire underground space to resist the divine sense exploration of Integration Stage cultivators.

Though Su Rentian had left, the pot of tea on the table had not been finished. Xu Fan continued to drink tea in the dojo.

It was not long before Li Xingci returned to the dojo.

“Master.” Li Xingci bowed and said.

“Hmm, have you figured out how to handle this situation?” Xu Fan asked.

“Go with the flowmQ'
