An Encounter with Chen Qiaoqian

Li Yunfan stood on the "flying leaf shuttle" and touched the storage bag at his waist with his right hand.

Then he took out a palm-sized round shield, which was covered with all sorts of intricate patterns, making it look like a tortoise shell.

"This Li Huayuan is quite generous, actually bestowing two top-tier magic artifacts upon me... It seems he truly intends to take me as his personal disciple, otherwise he wouldn't have been so magnanimous!"

Inside the main hall, after weighing the pros and cons, he finally decided to become Li Huayuan's disciple.

After the kowtow ceremony, Li Huayuan was very happy to accept him as a disciple. Since Li Yunfan had not yet broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage, he could only be considered a nominal disciple for the time being.

However, Li Huayuan directly bestowed upon Li Yunfan a "Rejuvenation Pill" and two top-tier magic artifacts as a gift for his apprenticeship.

The "Rejuvenation Pill" among them is extremely potent and is a very precious healing pill. Even Foundation Establishment cultivators use it to recover from injuries.

The two top-tier magical artifacts are an offensive artifact called the "Crimson Fire Sword" and a defensive artifact called the "Mystic Turtle Shield," each of which is of the highest quality.

It's important to know that top-tier magic artifacts are not cheap; even the most ordinary ones cost several hundred low-level spirit stones, let alone these two exquisite top-tier magic artifacts.

As for that "Rejuvenation Pill," its price is definitely higher than that of an ordinary top-tier magic weapon.

I wonder what Master Li would feel if he knew that Li Yuanfan was planning to leave Huangfeng Valley.

After putting away the Xuan Turtle Shield, Li Yunfan sped towards Xuankun Mountain.

Just as he was about to reach Xuankun Mountain, he suddenly noticed two figures in front of him, one of whom gave him a sense of familiarity.

As the two figures flew closer, Li Yunfan realized that they were a man and a woman, and the man was Huang Wendao, who had warned him that day.

As for the woman beside him, Li Yunfan did not recognize her, and couldn't help but take another look.

The woman was dressed in yellow disciple's robes, with a well-proportioned figure and a superior appearance; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say she was as beautiful as a flower.

"Greetings, Senior Brother Li. Are you planning to return to your cave?" Huang Wendao stopped and asked with a smile.

Li Yunfan had a favorable impression of this person, so he smiled and replied, "Indeed, this is...."

"Oh! Let me introduce you, senior brother. This is Senior Sister Chen Qiaoqian. Senior Sister Chen, and this is Senior Brother Li Yunfan. Although you joined the sect later, your cultivation has already reached the thirteenth level of Qi Refining. You are truly exceptionally talented!" Huang Wendao then thought of introducing them to each other.

A hint of surprise appeared in Li Yunfan's eyes. He never expected that the beautiful woman in front of him was Chen Qiaoqian, who had stirred Han Li's heartstrings!

Chen Qiaoqian also looked surprised, her beautiful eyes scanning Li Yunfan up and down.

"Qiaoqian greets Senior Brother Li. Since you've just entered the sect, you shouldn't recognize me. Why did you look surprised when you heard my name?" Chen Qiaoqian asked with a smile and some curiosity.

Li Yunfan then regained his composure and calmly explained.

"So it's Junior Sister Chen. I'm sorry to have made you laugh. I only heard of your name by chance, and I never expected to meet you in person today. I was a little flustered, and I hope you won't mind."

"Oh? What is your name, Junior Sister? Please tell me, Senior Brother..." Chen Qiaoqian was somewhat puzzled.

Although she was a disciple of the Chen family, she was far from being well-known in Huangfeng Valley.

Li Yunfan seemed to have a plan for this question and explained without any panic.

"Junior Sister Chen's beauty has long been renowned among the disciples in the valley. Now that I have seen her, I realize that the rumors are not accurate. In my opinion, Junior Sister's beauty ranks among the top three in the entire cultivation world."

Chen Qiaoqian pursed her lips slightly, a strange light flashing in her eyes, but she quickly concealed it.

Although she was a Taoist practitioner, she was still a woman, and no woman could truly be indifferent to her own appearance.

Hearing Li Yunfan's words, it was impossible for him not to have any reaction. Although he hid his emotions, he was still very happy.

"Senior brother, you flatter me. Qiaoqian is not worthy of such a great title... However, Qiaoqian still wants to know who the top two people you mentioned are?" Chen Qiaoqian said modestly, then asked with a look of curiosity.

Li Yunfan smiled slightly: "The first person is naturally my mother. In my heart, my mother is the most beautiful woman in the world."

Chen Qiaoqian's eyes showed surprise; she hadn't expected Li Yunfan to give this answer.

"And who's second in your senior's heart?"

Upon hearing this, Li Yunfan showed a hint of embarrassment on his face.

"The second place... cough... since Junior Sister asked, I'll be frank. Although I'm not married yet, no matter who my future spouse is or what they look like, she will always be the most beautiful woman in the cultivation world in my heart!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Qiaoqian's heart trembled slightly, and an unknown feeling slowly lingered in her heart. Her gaze towards Li Yunfan changed.

Huang Wendao, standing to the side, stared wide-eyed, his lips slightly parted, his face filled with shock.

He never imagined that this Senior Brother Li would be so eloquent!

He glanced at Chen Qiaoqian beside him and saw the gleam in her beautiful eyes as she looked at Li Yunfan. He couldn't help but give Li Yunfan a thumbs up in his heart.

"I must seek guidance from Senior Brother Li someday. To think he possesses such a method to attract female cultivators is truly remarkable!"

Li Yunfan naturally saw the admiration in Chen Qiaoqian's eyes, so he stared at her directly without any hesitation.

Seeing this, Huang Wendao coughed lightly, interrupting the two men's eye contact.

"Senior brother, Senior Sister Chen and I have other matters to attend to, so we won't chat with you any longer."

Upon hearing this, Chen Qiaoqian immediately realized what was happening. Recalling the eye contact between the two of them just now, a blush appeared on her face, and she blinked her beautiful eyes as she spoke.

"Junior Brother Huang is right. We won't disturb Senior Brother's return to his cave any longer. Farewell!"

After saying that, he quickly fled the place. Seeing this, Huang Wendao cupped his hands to Li Yunfan and also rode his magic weapon to chase after him.

Watching the two figures depart, a strange smile crept onto Li Yunfan's lips.

"This Chen Qiaoqian is quite cute. She's been able to chat with me for so long, so it seems she hasn't developed a relationship with that scumbag Senior Brother Lu yet..."

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

"She was also a pitiful woman troubled by love..."

He shook his head and continued flying towards the cave.

Li Yunfan was unaware that it was precisely because of his encounter with her that the original timeline was once again disrupted.

Chen Qiaoqian later did not agree to Lu the scumbag's pursuit, and there was no more Han Li's rescue on the road.

However, something happened that left Li Yunfan somewhat bewildered and troubled.
