Ye Jian immediately nodded to show she understood!

The next second, countless black withered branches spread, occupying the entire medicine field in the blink of an eye.

Ye Jian blinked, and the field of medicinal herbs in front of her was gone.

Tianmang smiled shyly at her, "I picked these for Sister Lin."

Although Tiān Máng is simple, he isn't stupid.

Over time, a series of unexpected events occurred, causing her to mature rapidly.

She knew that she had to rely on Lin Qi to bring back the Immortal Monarch's ashes to Tianyi Sect and fulfill the Immortal Monarch's last wish.

Her time at the Demon Palace hadn't broadened her horizons or experience. She didn't know much, only how to earnestly and clumsily try to please Lin Qi.

When Lin Qi is happy, she will be better.

Ye Jian didn't quite understand the relationship between Tian Mang and Lin Qi, but she could see that she was awkwardly trying to ingratiate herself.

She's always been carefree and kindhearted. Now, she pats Tianmang on the head: "Junior Sister Lin will be so happy to have you as her helper."

Tiān Máng's smiling face was rosy and full of innocent and pure energy.

The aura of Ye Jian and her companion blends together harmoniously.

Lin Qi got a little helper by chance, of course she was happy.

She was always good at observation and capturing details. Almost as soon as Tianmang offered her the elixir, she guessed that his uneasiness came from somewhere.

As long as Tianmang is grateful, understands reason, and doesn't take other people's contributions for granted, she doesn't mind releasing enough kindness.

With a wave of her hand, she summoned the verdant vine that reached to the heavens.

"You can help me pick herbs, and I'll share them with you when we're done."

"Remember to look after Tianmang, don't let anyone bully her."

Tongtian Green Vine, seeing all these medicinal herbs scattered across the mountain, couldn't hold back any longer. It nodded happily and ran to find Tianmang.

Lin Qi once again ushered in a bumper harvest.

When the first group entered the secret realm, she had already plucked both mountains bare.

Of course, the seedlings and unripe herbs were left untouched.

She has always been honest and abides by the rules generally accepted in the Xianxia world.

The Sky Piercing Green Vines and Heavenly Rays have an innate advantage, they are extremely fast when harvesting spiritual herbs.

The Sky-Piercing Green Vine was the first to discover a gravely injured disciple. Following Lin Qi's instructions, it stuffed two pills into his mouth.

When he woke up, he realized that it was a disciple of the Wǔtái Jiàn Gé.

Lin Qi learned this, grabbed him and asked: "How did you get in? What about the others outside?"

He looked very worried about his fellow disciples.

The other party had been rescued and wasn't too guarded. Seeing her appearance, they told their story one by one.

"We were originally cultivating at the Dìduàn Spring. Suddenly, there was a change in heaven and earth. Ice instantly covered thousands of miles, thunder rolled down, and in an instant, mountains collapsed and the ground split. The entire world of Dìduàn Spring sank and cracked. We all fell to the bottom."

"I'm so unlucky, I woke up after passing through the weak water layer and falling into the palace. I lost contact with my fellow disciples."

Along the way, I met several Yuan Ying cultivators who had come from outside. Luckily, I didn't look threatening, so they ignored me.

Lin Qi was curious and looked at him, "Then what about these injuries on you?!"

"It was made by the people at Bihai Pavilion," he said with a wry smile.

"It's probably because they were afraid I would compete with her for opportunities. I just bumped into two disciples from Bihai Pavilion, and they attacked me immediately. Luckily, no one had their spiritual energy at the moment, or I might have died at their hands. By chance, I managed to sneak into this secret realm..."

He spoke lightly, but Lin Qi only had to glance at the wounds on his body to know how intense the battle had been.

As for his words, Lin Qi was half-believing and half-doubting.

Ye Jian's face was innocent, believing everything the person in front of her said.

After listening, he nodded in agreement and said, "You're really unlucky! I'm about the same."

"I plummeted into the weak water, watching helplessly as the Daoist who came to our rescue passed right by me, saving the other two people... Even though I had tried so hard to call for help."

Lin Qi curiously asked, "Then who is the Daoist of Rescue? Do you know him?"

Even the cultivators of Wutai Jiange were curious and asked, "There's actually a Daojun coming to our rescue? It seems I was unconscious for a while and missed a lot."

Ye Jian first answered Lin Qi, "I don't know him. He should be a Daojun guarding the Heavenly Crossing Fairy Spring, but I saw a golden butterfly jade ruyi pinned to his waist, which should belong to the Ruyi Elder of Bihai Pavilion."

Lin Qi whispered softly, "No wonder."

This time, all those who came to Tiandidi Xianquan are the most outstanding disciples of major sects.

It is understandable that a rescue elder might show partiality when saving people, prioritizing their own disciples first.

It's just that I feel a little uncomfortable.

She then looked at the disciples of Wudai Jiange, nodding in approval.

During your coma, the entire Heavenly Crossing Spring was in chaos. Cultivators from outside and those who guarded the Heavenly Crossing Spring fought amongst themselves, with elders from various sects also arriving to rescue... I don't know if anyone got caught in the crossfire.

Lin Qi followed with a sigh, "I'm about the same. I was unconscious at the time and missed quite a lot. If I had left with the rescue cultivators, I probably could have avoided a lot of danger."

Ye Jian hesitated, "Actually... coming in isn't completely without its benefits."

She searched the mountains and valleys for herbs, happily saying, "They say fate is predetermined. Isn't this a sign of our destiny?"

"It is! It is!" The cultivators of Wutai Jiange nodded in agreement.

Although he was seriously injured, he was still very satisfied with the rare opportunities in this secret realm.

Lin Qi's tone changed, but she brought up another matter.

“The chaos of the Heavenly and Earthly Immortal Spring is probably perceptible even to powerful cultivators from both the Northern and Southern Continents. I don't know how many Nascent Soul cultivators who have transformed into gods are in the Heavenly Demon Palace right now. Although they have lost their cultivation, their strength is still beyond the reach of us Golden Core cultivators.”

The cultivators of Wutai Jiange were quite clever. They immediately understood Lin Qi's meaning.

"Are you preparing to unite the disciples of all sects and fight against these outside cultivators?"

"While they may not be allies, at the very least they can stand together as a united front during times of crisis."

"There's strength in numbers. Two or three of us can't beat a Nascent Soul cultivator, but six or seven of us should be able to manage?"

Even if you can't win, you won't be bullied.

Seeing the hesitation still lingering on his face, Lin Qi directly stated, "Harassing people is one thing, but the main issue is that we barely managed to obtain treasures from the secret realm. By then, we're likely going to have to hand them over. Are you willing?"

"Of course not!"

Both spoke at once, Ye Jian especially excitedly.

"Isn't it just about uniting people to fight against outside cultivators? This kind of thing isn't the first time we've done it."

When Xiaocheng Tianmi Secret Realm, Ye Jian used her personal charm to persuade hundreds of cultivators to join forces and fight against the evil cultivators.

Now we've just swapped enemies.

But in order to protect her own interests, she believed that the disciples of the sect would not refuse.

And Lin Qi also had something that attracted them,

Lin Qi turned to look at the Wutai Jiange cultivators beside him, "For such a matter, it's still safer if a cultivator from our sect persuades them. Can you handle that side of the Wutai Jiange?"
