Chapter 173 – Li Qinghe: Master, Can You Also Get Me an Innate Pill?

“Beast God Sect… Supreme Realm Demonkin…”

In the library, Qin Yang and Li Zixuan sat facing each other. After carefully listening to the news she brought, he frowned.

They’ve finally come looking…

He wasn’t surprised by this.

Back at Sword God Valley, when he publicly executed those two Heretical Cultists, he had already prepared for this outcome.

These evil cults have extensive roots that can’t be eradicated in a single day.

Since they’re willing to spend enormous resources to cultivate Half-Step Supreme experts, it indicates they possess profound foundations.

Eliminating one or two leaders wouldn’t be enough to completely destroy them.

At most, it would severely damage their vitality.

What concerned Qin Yang more at the moment was that Supreme Realm expert.

“This is somewhat troublesome.”

Qin Yang shook his head and fell into thought.

Ordinary Supreme Realm experts weren’t fearsome – even before entering the Supreme Realm, he had sufficient means to deal with them. Simply setting up the Big Dipper Seven Stars Array Diagram would ensure none could escape.

His only worry…

were those veteran Supremes.

Centuries-old monsters with endless tricks up their sleeves, always ready to strike unexpectedly – utterly disgusting!

Qin Yang frowned: “It’s indeed quite difficult to handle.”

“Senior Brother, if you see our master, you must report this to him.”

Li Zixuan tapped her toes on the floor, looking at Qin Yang with concern in her eyes: “These Heretical Cultists move mysteriously. I certainly believe in our master’s strength, but I’m afraid…”

Her voice lowered, “I’m afraid it might be like last time at Sword God Valley… where the Demonkin desperately self-destructed, trying to drag the teacher down with them… I…”

She didn’t want to continue.

The memories of Sword God Valley remained vivid in her mind.

If the teacher hadn’t cleverly used a doppelganger back then, he would probably be dead by now, topping Jianghai City’s memorial list…

That kind of desperate situation…

She never wanted to experience it again.

Thinking this, Li Zixuan worriedly said: “Senior Brother, you must tell the teacher to be careful.”

“Mm, don’t worry Shimei, I’ll convey it to him.”

Qin Yang nodded.

Hearing this,

Li Zixuan breathed a sigh of relief, then suddenly remembered something and hesitantly added, “Then Senior Brother, there’s one more thing… did the teacher mention when he might see me again?”

“Last time he promised me, at Fuhai Villa District…”

“……”

Qin Yang frowned slightly upon hearing this,

Not this again…

Has this silly girl circled back to this obsession?

With her personality,

if he didn’t agree, she’d probably pester him daily.

Thinking this, Qin Yang sighed.

“Ah, alright then, Senior Brother will set a time with you.”

He leaned forward over the table, extending three fingers, “Three days… in three days, come to my home. I’ll take you to see our master, I won’t go back on my word.”

“Really?”

Li Zixuan’s heart leaped with surprise: “Wonderful! Then it’s settled, good Senior Brother. Three days from now, we’ll meet at your place. I won’t disturb you further now, Senior Brother.”

Having achieved her goal, she stood up, changed locations, and obediently left area 1 to find a quiet spot to study.

A moment later.

The library grew quiet.

Qin Yang also returned to his usual spot, contemplating Li Zixuan’s earlier words.

If that’s the case,These Evil Cult members are coming with overwhelming force—I must prepare a few more measures to deal with them.

Just as he was thinking this, he looked up and saw Li Qinghe emerge from behind the bookshelves in Section Two, hands clasped behind her back, taking light, skipping steps as she bounced out cheerfully.

“Mas—ter—”

Li Qinghe smiled brightly, a playful grin tugging at her lips. “When you go with Zixuan-mei… ahem, Martial Aunt Zi Xuan to see Grandmaster later, can you take me along too?”

“You really want to go?”

“Mm-hmm, so much!!!”

Li Qinghe’s eyes sparkled with anticipation as she said wistfully, “Just take me along as a side thing.”

“Keep dreaming for now. We’ll talk about it later. This time, you’re still not included.”

After brushing her off, Qin Yang picked up his Slacking Stool, took a few steps back, and moved out of Li Qinghe’s range.

“Hey, wait! Master, how can you do this?!”

Li Qinghe was baffled and hurried closer again, sounding a bit hurt. “Everyone favors Zi Xuan—can’t you spare even a little bit for me? Letting me see Grandmaster won’t cost you a piece of flesh!”

“Yes, it will.”

Qin Yang rolled his eyes and retorted impatiently, “I’ve told you already—your cultivation hasn’t reached the Innate Realm yet. Even if you went, it’d be useless. Your level isn’t high enough.

Let me give you an analogy: take the Myriad Formation Diagram… it’s advanced, right? But with your current skill, you can only grasp formations up to the second or third tier…

If you try to force yourself to understand higher levels, even if I let you take an open-book exam… you probably still wouldn’t get it!!”

As soon as he finished speaking,

Li Qinghe fell silent…

Lies don’t hurt—the truth is the sharpest blade.

His words cut deep!

“Now do you understand?”

Qin Yang glanced at her expression—she looked on the verge of tears—and added,

“That’s why I’m telling you… if you’re weak, practice more! Once you reach the Innate Realm, then come back and see how vast this world is. Every realm offers a different perspective!”

His words struck home,

each one hitting Li Qinghe right in the heart.

“……”

Li Qinghe’s face darkened.

Her hopeful heart…

was utterly crushed.

That Qin guy and his sharp tongue—

so infuriating!

“Master, you’re right. I understand now!”

Li Qinghe swallowed her frustration and said through gritted teeth, “It’s true that I’m too weak. But… could you give me a little help to reach the Innate Realm?”

“What kind of help do you want?”

Qin Yang stroked Xiaobai’s fluffy head leisurely and said, “Depends on the situation…”

“Master, last time you rewarded Zi Xuan-mei with an Innate Pill, didn’t you?”

Li Qinghe narrowed her eyes, leaned in with a flattering smile, and whispered, “Could you, depending on the situation, give me one too? Once I break through to the Innate Realm, I’ll definitely make it up to you!”

“Give you one?”

Qin Yang looked her up and down and chuckled, “What’s in it for me?”

“Yes, yes, yes!”

Hearing this, Li Qinghe immediately brightened up and replied, “Don’t forget—my family runs this Library. Whatever you want, I can arrange it for you! A position? A bonus?

Anything is possible!”

“……”

Qin Yang listened, then said, “Forget it, not interested. I’m content with my current situation. This slacking-off position suits me just fine—changing it wouldn’t feel right.”

“Then what do you want, Master…”

Li Qinghe bit her lip lightly, quietly dispelling the protective veil concealing her figure, and boldly revealed her true form.With a dashing and heroic air, her messy cropped hair giving off a tomboyish vibe, her tight jeans hugging her curves and her long legs captivatingly alluring, she was extremely eye-catching.

“Master, there’s nothing I wouldn’t do for you~”

“What do you mean by that?”

“Just that I’d do anything for you…”

As her words trailed off.

“Get lost!”

Qin Yang’s face instantly darkened.

A proper master-disciple relationship… and you dare corrupt such filial piety.

Craving my body?

How despicable!
