Chapter 11: Senior Brother Got Your Back_1

Qi Yuan looked around and saw many colorful clothes floating in the middle of the Array of Attires.

"These little monsters are rather creatively designed."

The colourful clothes included skirts, shorts, robes, vests, bras, coats, overalls... there were all kinds of ancient and modern clothing.

Each piece of clothing seemed like a living entity, floating in the air.

However, as soon as Qi Yuan entered the Array of Attires, all these vibrant clothes turned their "heads" in his direction.

There weren't any heads on these clothes as they were empty, yet Qi Yuan felt as if thousands of eyes were staring at him.

"The situation doesn't look good, run!"

Qi Yuan immediately ran away.

Even though his level was as high as 82, there were just too many clothes monsters in the Array of Attires.

There were tens of thousands of them, and quite a few were above level 50.

Moreover, while the beasts and monsters in Xuanyuan Array were also strong, they lacked organization, each monster fighting on its own.

However, these clothes in the Array of Attires were clearly organized like an army.

If Qi Yuan were to fight, these clothes would probably swarm him instantly.

Qi Yuan fled without honor.

About fifteen minutes later, Qi Yuan heaved a sigh of relief.

"I finally got away."

He took his great sword and started digging into the ground.

He swiftly dug a large pit.

This pit was incredibly deep.

He was quite adept at digging.

After all, he was used to it.

He lay down in the pit.

Only then did he notice the messages sent by Jin Li in the chat interface.

He immediately replied, "I didn't lie to you. You can enter Xuanyuan Array just by carrying a ladder. There is no danger."

The rules he set himself were problem-free.

However, seeing Jin Li declare she was going to Xuanyuan Array herself, Qi Yuan checked the game screen.

The game screen showed that Xuanyuan Array was in the "controlled" stage.

Which is to say, Xuanyuan Array was his property.

He sent another message, "Don't worry, there's no problem. Go ahead bravely."

Meanwhile, Qi Yuan on the Seven-Colored peak, gazing at the moon in the sky, felt a bit tired.

He wasn't sure if it was because he had played the game for too long or if his spirit was too exhausted.

He said to Jin Li in the game, "There are too many clothes monsters in the Array of Attires. I'll go hunt them tomorrow.

I dug a hole and buried myself in the earth.

I'm logging off, good night."

After saying that, Qi Yuan put down the game jade slip.

He then merged the game jade slip into his own body.

On the other hand, in the dark palace, Jin Li, who had already been asleep, suddenly opened her eyes.

Her gaze fell on the Linglong Yu Xi charm, and a strange look flashed in her eyes as she read its contents.

"Alright, take care and be safe, good night."

It was a simple greeting.

Meanwhile, at the Prime Minister's mansion.

Sima Ting was still awake.

A pile of official documents awaited his attention on his desk.

In fact, compared to Empress Jin Li, he seemed more like a cunning politician, always placing personal gain above all else.

"Did the Empress have any unusual activities today?" asked Sima Ting, putting down a document and asking slowly.

From the side, a figure concealed in shadows appeared and lowered its head to say, "Today, the Empress met with the Minister of Revenue to arrange disaster relief funds. She went to see Madam Qin at dusk.

After returning to the palace, she spent her time reviewing official documents. There were no unusual activities.

However, at night, she did order her maidservants to retrieve some documents about the Xuanyuan Array from the library."

"Xuanyuan Array?" Sima Ting smirked, "It seems like she has run out of options and can only put her hopes on the elusive Xuanyuan Array."

Sima Ting knew the decisive duel in ten days was crucial for Empress Jin Li.

If Jin Li lost, the already fragile state of affairs would completely collapse.

But now, since Madam Qin was severely injured and clearly not a match for the state preceptor of Nanfeng Country,

Jin Li decided to take a risk and visit Xuanyuan Array in the hopes of obtaining Spiritual Medicine to heal Madam Qin.

This was Sima Ting's speculation.

"The Empress is now out of options. We don't need to bother about her," said Sima Ting casually. He didn't see Jin Li as a threat. His main concern was the Northern Khan Court, his collaborators, and the General of Apocalypse protecting the border.

However, as he picked up a document, he added, "Have some people follow her to check if there are any surprises."

It was always better to be cautious, no matter what you did.

...

A familiar tune played.

With a wave of his hand, Qi Yuan sealed the wooden puppet cat again, rendering it silenced.

However, this time, Qi Yuan, quite unusually, opened his eyes wide.

"The sun's up high.

As the eldest senior brother of Seven-Colored Peak, I need to set an example for my junior sister, I can't be lazy."

At this point, the disciples of the Divine Brilliance Sect had already completed their morning practice.

But for Qi Yuan, it was a rare occasion of getting up early.

After washing up, Qi Yuan stretched lazily, letting the sunshine shine on his face, appearing extremely languid.

But due to his good looks, even his laziness seemed to have a special charm to it.

"Good morning, junior sister." Qi Yuan stepped out of the courtyard, only to see Jiang Lingsu, drenched in sweat.

He didn't approach her, deliberately keeping his distance.

In his sight also appeared hidden information about Jiang Lingsu.

[She is an ordinary young girl who has learned many Dao techniques, practices hard, hoping that one day, she can have the power to awe the world and prevent disasters.]

Seeing this, Qi Yuan's impression of Jiang Lingsu rose a notch.

Jiang Lingsu, looking at Qi Yuan, knitting her brows: "Eldest senior brother, how come you look so worn out, just like... you overindulged yourself."

Qi Yuan was stunned.

He had just been playing too many games, using up too much energy.

Currently, his cultivation is stuck at the peak of Qi Refinement, and has not set foot in the Foundation Establishment phase.

So, spending too much energy on games seems normal, doesn't it?

Regrettably, at present, Qi Yuan wants to enter Foundation Establishment but is still missing two things.

One is an appropriate cultivation technique.

The second is a suitable spiritual object for Foundation Establishment.

The suitable cultivation technique, naturally, would be a self-created one.

Although his cultivation is low, his eyes can see hidden information.

He can blindly create a cultivation technique, and then use the hidden information to continuously correct it.

Qi Yuan now has gone through all the techniques of the sect.

Unfortunately, he is still far from creating a cultivation technique.

Or to say, his accumulation is too little.

However, just now looking at Jiang Lingsu, she was full of Dao techniques.

He looked at Jiang Lingsu, saying: "Junior sister, you must save your elder brother."

He didn't take Jiang Lingsu's earlier "attack" to heart.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Lingsu asked worriedly, afraid that her senior brother might have encountered a problem in his cultivation.

"I see that you come from a remarkable background…"

"Are you asking for money?"

"Not at all, I meant to ask, do you have any extra cultivation techniques, regardless of their grades, that you can lend me to have a look?" Qi Yuan said.

Jiang Lingsu exhaled in relief: "How many do you need, senior brother?"

"The more, the better.", Qi Yuan said, "Ideally hundreds, or even thousands."

She possessed quite a lot of Dao techniques, which implied she wouldn't be short of them.

"Senior brother, what do you need these techniques for?" Jiang Lingsu asked.

Qi Yuan replied lazily: "As I said, you wouldn't believe me.

You lend me these techniques, and when I make progress in my cultivation, I will take care of you for the rest of your life, not just in the Divine Brilliance Sect, but… throughout the entire Sorrowful Skies Realm!"

Hearing this, Jiang Lingsu burst into laughter.

Would she need him to look out for her?

Even though Qi Yuan was taller than her and probably older, Jiang Lingsu felt she could defeat this senior brother single-handedly if they fought.

"What are you going to do with all these techniques? Tell me." Jiang Lingsu asked again.

"Create my own cultivation technique." Qi Yuan didn't hide anything.

After all, in this world, nobody believes the truth.

For instance, he had disclosed the fact that the sect master was a spy, but unfortunately, nobody believed him.

Jiang Lingsu paused for a moment.

Create his own cultivation technique?

The eldest brother sure dares to dream.

Nevertheless, she pulled out a jade slip.

"Senior brother, here are quite a few techniques, just borrow to have a look."

All these years, Ruan Yixi had only taken this senior brother as her disciple.

This implied Ruan Yixi must value Qi Yuan a lot.

She needed to establish a good relationship with Qi Yuan.

"Since you borrowed the techniques, senior brother, you mustn't always be engrossed in gaming. You need to seriously cultivate, you need to cover your junior sister in the future." Jiang Lingsu said.

"Gaming is also a form of cultivation." Qi Yuan took the jade slip containing the techniques.

As for the sweaty smell on Jiang Lingsu, it smelled not stinky now, but rather sweet, probably because she had provided him with so many cultivation techniques stored in the jade slip.
