.The other one, however, was in a very strange state. Its whole body was tightly curled up, and there was a thin layer of film covering its surface. Its entire body, like its tail, seemed to be fadin...Shi Xue publicly announced Qin Sang's status as a guest elder, drawing admiring gazes from all.
With the encouragement of Tonglingyu, Daochang Qingfeng ventured into the demon's lair alone, delivering intelligence and accomplishing a great feat. This story has recently spread throughout Xuantian Palace, shaping him into a lone hero.
Facing the flattery of the other two nascent spirits, Qin Sang felt a little embarrassed and repeatedly expressed his humility.
However, with Shi Xue's announcement that Qing Feng Dao Chang would be wed to Liuli, a grand ceremony would be held soon, and the disciples respectfully cast their eyes down.
Even with a veil covering her face, Liuli's natural beauty shines through.
Since returning to Tingxue Building, I've seen her disciples and they are all astonishingly beautiful. They seem even more popular than when they were at Shaohua Mountain.
To these disciples, the image of a fairy in their minds was Liuli. Coupled with Liuli's cold temperament, she truly resembled a fairy who had walked out of the Moon Palace.
It's enough for me to just catch a glimpse of it sometimes.
Right now, the fairy is being dragged into the mortal realm by a man. How could they not be upset
What's even more annoying is that the chair ordered them to prepare for a grand ceremony for the other party, running around busily.
What's even more infuriating is that they won't even utter a word of disagreement.
Qin Sang realized that the atmosphere was off, and couldn't help but think of Master Brother Zhuang, who had been gazing at the glazed painting with admiration when they first entered Shaohua Mountain.
Missing the opportunity to see him one last time, Qin Sang only learned of Zhuang Yan's passing from Mu Yifeng. By then, Zhuang Yan had already passed away. Thankfully, he had a granddaughter who was gifted. Mu Yifeng planned to focus on cultivating her, and Qin Sang also asked Li Yuhu to lend a hand.
Thank you all.
Qin Sang let out a dry laugh, bowed to the crowd and thanked them, then hurriedly left Tingxue Building with Liuli. He mounted his escape light and flew towards Lingxiao Peak.
Before meeting the Palace Master, you must first visit Jiang Hall Master.
The Hall Master Jiang is Bing Yao's senior brother. He is said to be the eldest disciple of Bing Yao's generation, with limited aptitude. He has cultivated to the middle stage of Nascent Soul, but has made no progress for many years.
Bing Yao could be said to have grown up watching him.
This person not only enjoys great prestige in Ting Xue Lou, but also throughout the entire Xuan Tian Palace, and even beyond Xuan Tian Palace. He is a highly respected veteran powerhouse.
All branches of Xuantian Palace, especially the four main branches, will send their strongest members to become elders or hall masters, ensuring the influence of each branch within Xuantian Palace.
According to the rules, these people can no longer have personal interests and must treat all branches of Xuan Tian Palace equally. They cannot serve as heads of individual branches any longer.
If he hadn't come to Lingxiao Peak and become the head of Yuji Hall, the position of the Listener's Pavilion Master would have belonged to him.
Now, before Shi Xue makes any major decisions, she first seeks Jiang Dianzhu's opinion.
When Qin Sang was invited by Tingxue Lou to be a guest elder, even the Grand Elder had to personally visit Jiang Dianzhu to explain the matter. This shows the status of this person.
The Yuji Hall was named after the Yuji Spring, one of the seventy-two springs.
It is said that this spring produces a kind of pearl, which is a good material for refining artifacts and alchemy. Therefore, the Yuji Hall is responsible for the external affairs of the Xuan Tian Palace, such as danqi formations and talismans.
Qin Sang had long wanted to visit this Jiang Hall Master.
He majored in both weapon refinement and formation mastery, absorbing the best from all schools of thought. Naturally, he wanted to browse through the scriptures of Xuan Tian Palace and gain some insights.
The Source of the Primal Essence.
Qin Sang and Liuli descended in a flash of light, seeing the ancient hall at the heart of the lake. Grand and small halls were scattered throughout like stars across a celestial map.
This hall is built on an island, with lush trees and an unusually tranquil atmosphere.

From time to time, a streak of light would flash in or out, all were disciples of the various lineages of Xuan Tian Gong practicing external arts. The lowest cultivation level was also the foundation building stage.

Near the Yuandijing Palace, even when these disciples were laughing, they would unconsciously close their mouths and maintain a solemn expression.
The name of Fairy Liuli was widely circulated throughout Xuan Tian Palace. Qin Sang and Fairy Liuli didn't want to alarm too many people, so they disguised themselves slightly and walked with these disciples to the front of Yuji Hall's gate, stepping inside.
However, they were still discovered.
Just as they passed under the archway, the two of them felt a blur before their eyes, and there appeared in front of them an old man with white hair, leaning on a cane.
The disciples, hurrying along, saw the elder and all of them expressed surprise. They bowed respectfully, "Greetings, Master!"
"You may withdraw now, and refrain from wasting time."
The Grand Master of the River Hall nodded at them, forcing out a few words, then immediately turned to Qin Sang and bowed, "Daoist Friend, are you Daoist Qingfeng"
The disciples bowed and retreated, but couldn't help stealing glances at Qin Sang. They wondered who these two mysterious figures were that had warranted the Palace Master's personal welcome.
Here is the translated text:

“Greetings, Jiang Dianzhu. I am Qingfeng.”
Qin Sang bowed in return.

"Greetings, Master Jiang."
Luli also respectfully bowed and handed Jiang Zhuan's letter to the master.
The Hall Master of the River opened it and glanced through, his brow furrowing slightly. He took a look at Qin Sang, then at Liuli, and said warmly: "From now on, you're all family. There's no need for formalities, come with me."
Three people strolled among the ancient trees and palaces.
The path led to a secluded and peaceful courtyard.
The hall master suddenly stopped, raised his head to look at the sky, his eyes deep as if reminiscing. After a long while, he said, “I have long heard of Daoist Qingfeng’s divine powers, and I am ashamed to be inferior. Daoist joining us is a great blessing for both Tingxue Building and Xuantiangong. Shi Xue said that you and Liuli knew each other since childhood. Liuli is Shimei's apprentice, and since she trusts you, I believe her judgment. As for the matter between you two, this old man won’t say much to avoid being thought of as too talkative by you. However, according to my opinion, I originally didn't want to agree to this absurd proposal. A fake couple agreement can hardly impose any constraints on Daoist, and the oath of a heart demon is not without loopholes.”
Facing the imposing gaze of Jiang Dianzhu, Qin Sang remained composed and replied, "I have always adhered to one principle—to keep my word."
The two people gazed at each other across the distance.
For a long time.
The Palace Master nodded lightly. "I have sent a message to the Grand Elder, she will take you to Lingxiao Peak to meet the Palace Master."
That's considered accepting the matter as default.

To Tingxue Lou, Liuli is the only hope among this generation of disciples.
The attempt to break through the glass mirror failed, which means Tingxue Lou has lost its qualifications.
Refusing Qin Sang is equivalent to handing the opportunity over to the other three lineages. As the saying goes, "when one loses, another gains." With this development, Ting Xue Lou's downward trend becomes even more apparent.

If Qin Sang could gain the Palace Master's approval and obtain the qualification to use the Cleansing Pool, even if Liuli and he were only a fleeting marriage, it would still allow them to form a good relationship, which would be beneficial but harmless to Ting Xue Lou.
According to Shi Xue's account, this person's cultivation base is only at the middle stage of Yuanying, but he already has the strength comparable to a great cultivator. He can now be the overlord of one side, and his future prospects are limitless.

The Hall Master was initially skeptical, but after confirmation from Tong Lingyu, he had to believe it.
Three people were waiting in the courtyard.
Not long after, a fragrant breeze swept in, and Tong Lingyu gracefully arrived.
Seeing Qin Sang and Liuli, Tong Lingyu's beautiful eyes lit up, her slender hand gently raised, covering her mouth and smiling: "What a good pair! Fortunately, this palace asked Jiang Dianzhu and Shi Zhangzuo to help invite Daochang to be a guest of Tingxue Lou, otherwise wouldn't it have missed such a good marriage"
Of course, she couldn't tell Tong Lingyu about the fake marriage.
Tong Lingyu only thought they were old friends meeting again, their old feelings rekindled, and she smiled playfully.
Qin Sang bowed in return.
After some pleasantries.
As you two have become Dao companions, this palace considers itself half a matchmaker, naturally I have no objections. However, going to pay respects to the Palace Master is only proper.
Tong Lingyu got up. "Time is of the essence, you should follow me to Lingxiao Peak now."
Three people bid farewell to the master of the Jiang Temple and set off together for the center of the Seventy-Two Springs, soon arriving at the foot of Lingxiao Peak.

Even if the High Elder himself brought them, they still had to face a guard inspection and explain their purpose before being allowed into the mountains.
Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!
Three people reached a welcoming pavilion halfway up the mountain.
"Please wait here for a moment, I'll go up first."
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
Tong Lingyu kept them there, not even letting Qin Sang remove the Thousand Fox Mask. Her tone held a strange edge: "There's no need to be nervous. The palace master has been in seclusion for many years, and may not have time to see you."
Qin Sang and Liuli looked at each other.
The Palace Master's refusal to see them was exactly what they wanted.
Qin Sang may not be afraid of this palace master, but he didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble.
As they were speaking, Tong Lingyu used her martial arts skills to vanish from sight.
The top of Lingxiao Peak.
There is a jade bi here, embedded in the cliff face. It faces north and south, smooth as a mirror.
Before the jade tablet lay a small pond, its water crystal clear. Two golden carp swam peacefully, the surface of the water undisturbed and eerily calm; there was no sign of any guards in sight.
Tong Lingyu came to the lakeside, looking at the jade bi, she bowed and said loudly, "Tong Lingyu pays respects to the Palace Master."
The yu bi was unresponsive.
Tónglíngyù stood still, without the slightest trace of anxiety on her face.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
I don't know how long ago it was.
Inside, a slightly hoarse voice came out, "Lingyu, you're here."
The other party's tone was extremely flat, and one could not hear a shred of emotion from it.
Tong Lingyu said, "Palace Master, the Ice Demon Crystal is about to mature. All veins have agreed and are preparing to open the Sacred Land in a year."
"Okay. I'll be there then."
Tong Lingyu hesitated for a moment, and asked with some worry, "Palace Master, your injury..."
"No hindrance."
The voice in the jade disc remained as placid as ever.
Tong Lingyu nodded and didn't ask any further, "There are two junior disciples preparing to become Dao partners. Due to the dispute over the Cleansing Pool, they came to see the Palace Master and are waiting at the foot of the mountain."
What do you think
"It's truly a perfect match," Tong Lingyu said without hesitation.
"Very well then."
The Palace Master casually acknowledged the matter, just as Tong Lingyu had expected, showing no intention of summoning Qin Sang and Liuli.
Tong Lingyu's expression flickered, "Yes!"
She lowered her head slightly, but a glimmer of understanding flashed in her eyes. She bowed again and turned to walk down the mountain.
Inside the cliff.
Behind the pure and flawless jade bi, lay a stone cave so humble it was almost shabby.
White mist hung in the air inside the grotto, emanating an extremely chilling cold. Cultivators with lower cultivation bases would be frozen solid upon entering the cave.
Below the layers of mist, there was a cold pool.
On the surface of the cold pool, there was an ice coffin, floating there quietly, enveloped in cold mist.
Inside the ice coffin lay a man.
A cold mist coiled around, wisps and tendrils seeping into the icy coffin.
Numerous transparent runes covered the ice coffin, faintly flickering but not easily recognizable to the naked eye. These runes were extremely peculiar, and the ice coffin itself emanated a strange wave, as if the person inside, along with the coffin, was one with heaven and earth.
This man wore a white robe and a jade crown. Though his appearance was imposing even as he lay in the ice coffin, like a corpse, there was an indescribable majesty about him that evoked a sense of awe and worship.
He appears very young, yet exudes a sense of decay. His exposed skin is extremely pale.
