Baili Qiushui and Baili Mingyue also took out their sect tokens.

Unlike the sect tokens of the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect, the sect tokens of the Mystic Mystery Palace are black and white.

The front is as black as ink, and the back is as white as snow. The edges are engraved with intricate array patterns, and there is a faint spiritual light flowing between the black and white. It is clearly made by Formation Dao sect. Even the token itself has a bit of the unique regularity and mystery of arrays.

Baili Qiushui exchanged telepathic tokens with Lu Yang in a generous and open manner, while Baili Mingyue dared not reach out, looking extremely nervous.

Her unkempt black hair hung down, covering most of her face, revealing only a section of her almost transparent red earlobe.

Baili Qiushui had already anticipated this.

Without saying a word, she took Baili Mingyue's sect token directly, her movements so practiced as if she had rehearsed it countless times, and completed the exchange of the sound transmission mark with Lu Yang.

Baili Mingyue stayed hidden behind her master the whole time, only stealing a quick glance at Lu Yang through the gap in his hair before abruptly lowering her head again.

After completing the exchange, Lu Yang slightly raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a bright smile.

Two more rewards in hand!

He didn't rush to check the reward. He put away the Sound Transmission Jade Token, looked at Su Jinxuan, took out a Sound Transmission Jade Token and a Spiritual Connection Ring, and handed them over.

"Elder Su, this is for you."

Su Jinxuan was taken aback, a look of surprise appearing on her cold and dignified face.

"I have Sound Transmission Jade Token... and what is this ring?"

Lu Yang smiled slightly and explained, "This Sound Transmission Jade Token is different from ordinary Sound Transmission Jade Token. It can cover the area of two major domains, making it quite convenient for communication. I'll give one to Elder Su. If I need your help in the future, and you happen to be away from the sect, I can contact you through this Sound Transmission Jade Token."

Upon hearing Lu Yang's words, Baili Qiushui's eyes widened in astonishment, and she exclaimed, "Sound Transmission Jade Token that can cover two major domains?! What... what quality is the Divine Soul Jade inside? Is it top-grade?! This Sound Transmission Jade Token... it's probably comparable to a Spirit Treasure, right?"

Lu Yang glanced at Baili Qiushui with some surprise, a touch of admiration in his heart.

As expected of a master of Formation Dao, he was truly remarkable, as Formation Dao and Artifact Dao share common ground in terms of array pattern refinement, and he deduced the quality of the jade tablet in an instant.

He chuckled and nodded, saying, "It is indeed a top-grade Divine Soul Jade. I had it refined by several Supreme Elders of the Heavenly Craft Mystic Sect."

A look of amazement immediately appeared in Baili Qiushui's eyes. "Young Master Lu is truly... too generous. Even the Sound Transmission Jade Token is made of such fine materials."

In all her years of life, this was the first time she had ever heard of someone using top-grade Divine Soul Jade to craft Sound Transmission Jade Token.

Top-grade Divine Soul Jade is a rare and precious material that can be used to forge Spirit Treasures of the divine soul type or even Profound Heaven Law Treasure heavenly materials and earthly treasures!

At any auction, Nascent Soul True Lord would fight tooth and nail to snatch it up!

When it came to Young Master Lu, it was only used to make a Sound Transmission Jade Token!

This is absolutely outrageous...

Su Jinxuan, who was standing to the side, then realized how precious the Sound Transmission Jade Token was.

She never expected that this small Sound Transmission Jade Token would be comparable to Spirit Treasure!

She glanced at the intricate, pale gold Runes on the jade tablet and asked, "Is this why you went to Jing Province?"

She knew that Lu Yang had gone to Jing Province to have something refined by the Heavenly Craft Mystic Sect.

But she didn't know exactly what she was refining.

Unexpectedly, he went to refine Sound Transmission Jade Token.

To refine Sound Transmission Jade Token using top-grade Divine Soul Jade, and to have several Nascent Soul Realm elders from the Heavenly Craft Mystic Sect personally handle it—how many Spirit Stones would that cost?

And they actually gave it to her so casually?

However, considering Lu Yang's previous behavior, Su Jinxuan felt that it was reasonable for Lu Yang to use top-grade Divine Soul Jade to refine Sound Transmission Jade Token.

It wouldn't be surprising if this Young Master Lu did something.

She hesitated for a moment, but ultimately accepted the Sound Transmission Jade Token from Lu Yang.

Just as Lu Yang said, if he needs his help in the future but he can't contact him because he's not in the sect, then it will be troublesome.

She owed Lu Yang far too much. If Lu Yang needed her help in any way, she would rush back immediately upon receiving his message!

Seeing that Su Jinxuan had put away the Sound Transmission Jade Token, Lu Yang smiled slightly, raised the Spiritual Connection Ring, and explained, "This ring can condense a shield that can withstand a full-force attack from Nascent Soul Perfection cultivator when you are in danger, and at the same time, it will teleport me to your side."

Upon hearing this, Su Jinxuan's expression changed slightly, and she almost instinctively shook her head to refuse. "Then I absolutely cannot accept it! Even I am in danger; if I let you teleport here, wouldn't that only harm you?"

Lu Yang was surprised by her first reaction and couldn't help but chuckle.

He shook his head, his tone confident and composed. "Don't worry, I have quite a few trump cards up my sleeve. Looking across the entire Canglan Realm, there's probably not much that can truly threaten me."

Upon hearing this, Su Jinxuan fell silent for a moment.

Indeed, given this young nobleman's mysterious background and extraordinary connections, how could he possibly not have any trump cards to protect himself?

Therefore, this ring can be considered a life-saving item.

With this ring, it was practically like she had an extra life!

You must understand that at her level of cultivation, if she encountered a danger that could be fatal, the danger itself would be extraordinary.

Even if the entire Golden Rainbow Sword Sect mobilized its top combat forces, they might not be able to help her.

With Lu Yang's Spiritual Connection Ring, everything is completely different.

However... Su Jinxuan pursed her red lips and did not reach out to take it.

So precious!

Although the Sound Transmission Jade Token is precious, it is useful to Lu Yang himself, and she holds it to contact Lu Yang.

Therefore, she didn't think anything of it.

But this Spiritual Connection Ring exists entirely to protect her!

Su Jinxuan felt that she already owed Lu Yang far too much, and if she accepted such a life-saving treasure, she was afraid that her Dao heart would be compromised again.

While Su Jinxuan remained silent, the people listening to Lu Yang's introduction, apart from Jiang Shiqing who already knew about it, including Liu Yaoyao, Baili Qiushui, and Baili Mingyue, were all somewhat alarmed.

Putting everything else aside, the fact that it can withstand a full-force attack from Nascent Soul Perfection cultivator at the peak of their cultivation level is enough to make this ring priceless!

Not to mention, it can also teleport Lu Yang to the wearer's side!

Lu Yang himself admitted that there was nothing in the entire Canglan Realm that could threaten him!

In other words, with this ring, Su Jinxuan is essentially given an extra life!

Baili Qiushui's gaze towards Su Jinxuan changed, filled with a hint of envy. She quickly sent a telepathic message, her tone a mix of teasing and inquiry. "You, Jinxuan, when did you manage to snag such a fine young master?"

Su Jinxuan stiffened slightly and replied irritably with a telepathic message, "What are you talking about! Young Master Lu and I are not dao companion!"

Baili Qiushui wasn't buying it, and the sarcasm in her voice transmission intensified. "They're even willing to give you such a life-saving treasure, isn't that enough? Even if you're not dao companion, you're practically one, aren't you?"

Upon hearing this, Su Jinxuan pursed her red lips, momentarily speechless.

Not only this Spiritual Connection Ring, but also that box of Dao Comprehension Tea Leaves...

That's a rare and heavenly materials and earthly treasures could drive even Spirit Transformation crazy!

Upon reflection, some cultivators might not even care about their dao companion as much as Lu Yang does for her.

Hearing Baili Qiushui's words, Su Jinxuan's heart suddenly felt a little flustered.

For a moment, she didn't know how to face the gentle-smiling young man in white robes before her.

Lu Yang knew Su Jinxuan's personality to some extent; she was quite competitive.

That's normal, though. How could one possibly cultivate to the Nascent Soul Realm if their mind wasn't strong enough?

To become Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, one must have experienced the Heart Demon Tribulation, possess sufficient self-awareness, and have one's own steadfast principles—all of whom are powerful cultivators.

The so-called enlightenment and seeing one's true nature is nothing more than this.

If it were anything else, Su Jinxuan would simply refuse it.

However, Lu Yang still had to give him the Spiritual Connection Ring.

Just kidding, this is Lu Yang's only Nascent Soul Realm confidante who is about to reach 80 points of favorability!

Who knows what kind of reward this guy will give after reaching 80 points of favorability?

What rewards do I get when I reach the maximum level?

Raising the favorability rating of the Nascent Soul Realm female cultivator is not so easy!

If something unexpected happens to her while she's out training, wouldn't Lu Yang suffer a huge loss?

With this Spiritual Connection Ring, you'll have enough protection!

Of course, putting aside these utilitarian calculations, he also had a good impression of Su Jinxuan. Su Jinxuan had patiently explained the "Golden Rainbow Sword Canon" to him and helped him comprehend the Metal Dao and Sword Dao.

Lu Yang still vividly remembers the resonance and mutual inspiration they shared during their discussions, every single detail still fresh in his mind.

Humans aren't plants or trees; how could they be without feelings?

Without further hesitation, he forcefully reached out and grabbed Su Jinxuan's fair hand.

Su Jinxuan's palms were soft and warm to the touch.

She seemed completely taken aback that Lu Yang would be so bold as to reach out and grab her hand.

Since her cultivation broke through to the Nascent Soul Realm, no one has ever dared to be so disrespectful to her.

Her Spiritual Qi surged instinctively, but then she thought of all the moments she had spent with Lu Yang: those quiet afternoons sitting under the pine trees on the mountaintop discussing the Dao, those moments of arguing endlessly over a single Dao pattern and finally smiling at each other, and the casual yet sincere smile on his face when he handed her the Dao Comprehension Tea Leaves...

She gritted her teeth, forcibly suppressing the surging Spiritual Qi within her, and let that slender and warm hand hold hers.

She pursed her red lips, her whole body involuntarily tensing up. A rare hint of embarrassment and annoyance appeared on her usually cold and dignified face, and her voice even changed slightly. "Young Master Lu, I am not your confidante!"

Lu Yang completely ignored her protests.

He lowered his head and, with gentle yet swift movements, steadily slipped the snow-white, lustrous Spiritual Connection Ring onto her finger.

The ring was the perfect size; the pale gold Runes twitched slightly on her finger before disappearing.

Lu Yang released his grip and looked up to meet Su Jinxuan's eyes, which were filled with complex emotions.

His gaze was earnest and frank. "I know, but I don't want you to encounter any danger. You should keep this. It can protect you."

Looking into Lu Yang's determined eyes, Su Jinxuan felt a gentle jolt in her heart.

A sudden surge of emotion welled up in her usually dignified and aloof eyes.

Her gaze softened for a moment, then she quickly withdrew her hand and looked away slightly. "I understand, Qiushui, Mingyue, let's continue."

Before Baili Qiushui could even react, she flashed with golden light and transformed into a dazzling beam of light, soaring into the sky.

The streak of light traveled extremely fast, leaving a golden trail in the morning sky, and it had flown far away in almost the blink of an eye.

Baili Qiushui gave Lu Yang a strange look.

This was the first time she had ever seen her close friend, who seemed as aloof and powerful as an empress, make such an expression.

They even fled in disarray!

And you still say you didn't eat!

She smiled politely at Lu Yang, and then followed after him with Baili Mingyue.

Lu Yang watched the three streaks of light disappear one after another, then looked down at the control panel.

Su Jinxuan (Favorability: 79)

He grinned, quite pleased with himself.

It actually increased my favorability by 7 points!

He risked getting beaten up for this!

Lu Yang felt it was totally worth it!
