Dust-Free Peak, the mountain where the elegant Sixth Elder resides.

Dust-Free Peak is somewhat similar to Moon Laurel Immortal Palace, only accepting female disciples, fluttering like swallows, with beauties like clouds, and the most beautiful among them is the Sixth Elder.

Rumors say that the Sixth Elder and the master of Moon Laurel Immortal Palace are close friends.

Lu Yang had heard his senior brothers talk about the Sixth Elder many times, all advising not to lose composure upon seeing the Sixth Elder, for she is a woman of breathtaking beauty.

Lu Yang? What brings you here? At the foot of Dust-Free Peak, Lu Yang encountered Peach Blossom Leaf.

Peach Blossom Leaf is tall and radiant, standing out in a crowd.

Lu Yang presented the ancient book: Eldest Senior Sister told me to give this book to the Sixth Elder.

My master is out on an errand and wont be back for over half an hour. Would you like to come in and sit? Peach Blossom Leaf invited.

Lu Yang showed a hesitant eagerness: Isnt it improper? Im a man, after all

Its fine, its fine. Anyway, were the two with the lowest cultivation levels in Dust-Free Peak; nothing will happen.

Lu Yang silently observed Peach Blossom Leaf, whose eyes were clear, seemingly unaware of the psychological impact her words had on him.

Lu Yang sighed and followed Peach Blossom Leaf, who turned her head with a sly smile.

Oh right, I still owe you five contribution points. Im giving them back now. Lu Yang had borrowed five contribution points from Peach Blossom Leaf to buy the Strength of Ten Bulls pill, which was quite helpful to him.

You remembered that, I had forgotten. Peach Blossom Leaf chuckled.

Wait, do I also have a lot of contribution points? Everlasting Fairy remembered she is an honorary guest elder of Dao Seeking Sect and had even killed a Unity Stage cultivator, for which Yun Zhi rewarded her many contribution points.

Lu Yang! Lu Yang! I want to exchange them, I want to exchange them.

Everlasting Fairy made a fuss, and Lu Yang couldnt help but say, Once we leave Dust-Free Peak, Ill take you to the contribution exchange board, and you can buy whatever you want.

Thats more like it. Everlasting Fairy nodded in satisfaction, feeling Lu Yang was a promising talent.

Be careful over there, definitely do not go there. Peach Blossom Leaf pointed to a pool, warning Lu Yang.

The pool was shrouded in mist, obscuring what was inside, accompanied by delightful laughter.

Senior Sisters like to bathe there. A few years ago, a senior brother, confident in his stealth techniques, sneaked into Dust-Free Peak, hoping to peep at the Senior Sisters. Then we heard the senior brothers screams.

Where is this senior brother now?

Given his proficiency in stealth, he has vanished from the mortal world.

Geez, Dust-Free Peak is dangerous.

Lu Yang was glad he was a man of integrity.

Peach Blossom Leaf led Lu Yang to her usual practice area: Fancy a spar?

Sure. Lu Yang happily agreed, drawing out his Qingfeng Sword, recalling that Everlasting Fairy remembered Lu Yang is a sword spirit root, theoretically meant to wield a sword.

She hadnt seen Lu Yang use a sword since her revival.

Junior Brother Lu, be careful, Ive learned something new these past two months. Peach Blossom Leaf opened a red paper umbrella.

With a twist of her wrist and a slight loosening of her grip, the umbrella spun, scattering peach blossoms like rain and snow, blocking Lu Yangs vision.

Sword light filled the air, sweeping through with a whistling sound, intending to clear the falling petals.

Behind Lu Yang, the peach petals gradually formed a silhouette. Peach Blossom Leaf closed the umbrella, swinging it downwards.

Lu Yang seemed to have anticipated Peach Blossom Leafs move, holding the sword behind him with one hand, blocking the strike.

The material of the red paper umbrella was unknown, as it could clash directly with the Qingfeng Sword without any damage.

Sword light flashed unexpectedly, and Peach Blossom Leaf was surprised by the swiftness of Lu Yangs sword moves.

Dotting Technique! Lu Yangs gaze sharpened, showing no mercy as he aimed for Peach Blossom Leafs chest.

Peach Blossom Leaf chuckled softly, stepping backward. Her umbrella tip collided with the sword tip, trying to disrupt Lu Yangs swordplay. However, Lu Yangs hand was steady, showing no tremor, relentlessly pursuing Peach Blossom Leaf.

Amidst the rain of peach blossoms, Qingfeng Sword clashed with the red paper umbrella, their figures agilely moving past each other, disappearing from sight.

Both had their moments of advantage, yet neither found the right opportunity to deliver a fatal blow.

Suddenly, Lu Yangs eyes lit up, finding a gap in Peach Blossom Leafs defense. Qingfeng Sword, smooth as a swimming fish, wove through the rain of peach blossoms, resting on Peach Blossom Leafs neck.

I concede. Peach Blossom Leaf surrendered with a gesture of resignation.

Lu Yang changed his move, stabbing towards an empty spot. The real Peach Blossom Leaf, astonished at the gleaming sword tip aimed at her forehead, truly conceded this time. The rain of peach blossoms vanished, and the previously surrendering Peach Blossom Leaf disappeared, all being an illusion.

How did you realize the real me was there? Peach Blossom Leaf didnt mind losing; she was good at learning from post-battle experiences.

I practice the Enlightenment of Heart and Nature Technique, which can see through illusions. Its your nemesis.

Enlightenment of Heart and Nature Technique? Never heard of it.

I wrote it myself. Lu Yang boasted, as writing ones own cultivation technique was no small feat.

Peach Blossom Leaf was about to say more when a fiery crimson mist flew over their heads.

Master is back.

Peach Blossom Leaf led Lu Yang to the Sixth Elders residence, and indeed, as his senior brothers had said, the Sixth Elder was extremely beautiful. Unlike Eldest Senior Sisters cold beauty, the Sixth Elders smile was gentle, like a caring older sister, giving off a very warm feeling.

HuHuHu

Suddenly, Lu Yang felt like he was suffocating, as if the oxygen around him had vanished. He struggled to breathe, trying to squeeze some oxygen from the air, to no avail.

Peach Blossom Leaf, you didnt tell her about me?

Peach Blossom Leaf slapped her forehead: I forgot.

Quickly pulling Lu Yang to a distance from the Sixth Elder, he breathed as if a fish returned to water.

HuHuWhats going on?

Peach Blossom Leaf apologized with a smile: Sorry, I forgot to mention, my master is a Flawless Immortal Physique, untouched by dust, automatically expelling air around her. She cant control it, so those close to her might feel suffocated. Just hold your breath, and itll be fine.

Lu Yang:

No wonder people say the Sixth Elder is a beauty that takes ones breath away.

Are you all in the Dao Seeking Sect this straightforward, not even using adjectives, just telling the blunt truth?

Lu Yang held his breath and approached the Sixth Elder again.

For a Foundation Building cultivator, not breathing for a short period is manageable with preparation. By the Golden Core stage, internal circulation can sustain life without the need for breathing.

Lu Yang pays respects to the Sixth Elder. Lu Yang bowed respectfully, My master mentioned you, saying he has always regarded you as an elder sister.

On the journey here, Daoist Non-Speaker told Lu Yang about his relationship with the Sixth Elder, describing it in a touching manner that moved both Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou.

The Sixth Elder scoffed: Is that so? Ive always regarded him as a dear grandson.

Lu Yang was at a loss for words, considering whether he should only mention Eldest Senior Sister when introducing himself in the future. Perhaps its best to avoid mentioning his masters name, which seems to bring embarrassment and animosity.
