The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

Chapter 291: Yan Xia’s Request

As the black wind eagle descended onto the square, Luo Yuebai walked slowly towards Su Jingzhen with a hint of a smile on her face.

“I thought Master Su would stay in Yunmeng City and become a son-in-law to the Feng family, and wouldn’t want to return to our poor and remote place.”

It was clear that Luo Yuebai had already grasped everything that had happened to Su Jingzhen and the others in Yunmeng City.

At this moment, Luo Yuebai’s eyes seemed to hold a hint of delight.

However, her words sounded somewhat sour.

Su Jingzhen was taken aback by her words, while Xuening blinked her eyes rapidly, her mind racing with all sorts of dramatic scenarios.

Shen Yifeng, on the other hand, chuckled and said, “Hey, old people like me are just a hassle. We’re exhausted from traveling for two days. I’ll just head back and rest. You young folks can discuss whatever you need to.”

Despite his arrogant demeanor in the Evil Moon Sect, Shen Yifeng seemed to have no temper in front of Luo Yuebai.

As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly disappeared from the square.

Su Jingzhen scratched his head, puzzled by Luo Yuebai’s current state.

This encounter was slightly different from what he had imagined.

” Sect Master, your words are a bit strange, but I suppose I didn’t bring shame to the Evil Moon Sect this time.”

After thinking for a moment, Su Jingzhen responded in this manner.

When he addressed Luo Yuebai as “Sect Master,” her eyes narrowed slightly.

Xuening’s expression, on the other hand, changed suddenly, as she hadn’t expected the beautiful woman in front of her to be the renowned Sect Master of the Evil Moon Sect’s Jiangling Branch.

“Ah…”

Luo Yuebai let out a soft sigh in response to Su Jingzhen’s words, then walked towards Xuening.

Her eyebrows curved, and a gentle smile appeared on her face: “You must be Xuening, right? I’m Luo Yuebai, perhaps a bit older than you. You can call me Sister Yuebai.”

Facing Luo Yuebai’s friendly approach, Xuening still felt a bit restrained.

After all, the other party was the Sect Master of the Evil Moon Sect’s Jiangling Branch, and although Xuening’s abilities and status were not low, she still felt somewhat inferior.

Luo Yuebai’s display of kindness was different from what Xuening had imagined a high-ranking figure in the Evil Moon Sect would be like.

However, Luo Yuebai then took the initiative to hold Xuening’s hand: “Sister Xuening, you don’t need to be afraid or restrained here. It’s just like going home. Come, let me arrange a place for you to stay.”

As she spoke, she pulled Xuening’s hand and walked towards the nearby buildings of Clear Wind Mountain.

However, Su Jingzhen was directly left standing in his original position.

Xuening turned her head to look at Su Jingzhen several times, her heart still feeling a bit anxious.

For the current Xuening, aside from her grandfather and Little Ling, the person she trusted the most was still Su Jingzhen, who had gone through life and death crises with her.

Su Jingzhen smiled and nodded at her, indicating that she shouldn’t be afraid.

Until the two women’s figures disappeared from the square.

Su Jingzhen scratched his head again: “What’s going on? Did I not open the right door? Does she have some opinion about me?”

Su Jingzhen thought for a while, but still couldn’t understand.

He could only sigh: “Women’s hearts are like a needle at the bottom of the sea!”

Previously, he could judge Luo Yuebai’s thoughts through her points.

But this time, he didn’t receive any points from Luo Yuebai, which made him even more puzzled.

As he thought about this, he headed towards his own courtyard.

Along the way, he saw the familiar sights of the plants and trees, just like when he had left.

Su Jingzhen’s mood brightened up again.

He soon returned to his own courtyard.

As soon as he walked through the gate, one of the six maids, Qiuyue, suddenly became excited.

“Master, you’re back!”

Su Jingzhen smiled and nodded at her, then ignored her and headed towards his own small courtyard.

As he passed through the middle courtyard, he saw Yan Xia continuing to practice her ordinary martial arts, sweating profusely.

Each move seemed to contain considerable power.

Su Jingzhen watched for a while, then nodded silently.

He had known for a long time that Yan Xia was someone who would stop at nothing to achieve her goals.

But while she was ruthless towards others, she was also extremely strict with herself and had great perseverance.

Su Jingzhen knew that this kind of person, if born in his previous life on Earth, would likely be able to achieve great things.

However, in this cultivation world, without spiritual roots, everything was already predetermined.

Even if she cultivated her body, she wouldn’t be able to open the Secret Repository, and her achievements would be limited.

Yan Xia practiced with utmost seriousness, and Su Jingzhen didn’t plan to disturb her.

He was about to return to his own courtyard when Yan Xia saw him.

“Su… Master!”

After hesitating for a moment, Yan Xia called out to him.

Su Jingzhen raised an eyebrow, but still stopped in his tracks.

“Not bad, your previous moves already surpassed those of ordinary people. Perhaps even early-stage Qi-refining cultivators wouldn’t be able to defeat you.”

Su Jingzhen walked over, not stingy with his praise.

When Yan Xia heard Su Jingzhen’s words, a hint of joy appeared in her eyes.

But then she said, “Su… Master Su, I want to ask you for a favor.”

Su Jingzhen raised an eyebrow again: “What is it, just say it directly.”

To Su Jingzhen, since Yan Xia had already become a maid in his courtyard, he wouldn’t mind helping her with anything he could.

Moreover, Yan Xia had previously sworn that she had a special physique, although she couldn’t provide any evidence, and the Evil Moon Sect couldn’t investigate her physique either.

But to Su Jingzhen, he still had some expectations.

Moreover, with the Spiritual Medicine Sect about to move over, he would soon have some subordinates, and it was time to use them.

If Yan Xia really had a special physique, then in the future, he might gain another useful subordinate.

Yan Xia then spoke directly: “Today, while practicing, I had a special epiphany. I feel that this time, I might be able to awaken my spiritual roots. If possible, I want to ask Master Su to help me awaken my spiritual roots.”

In the past, when this was still the Huayang Sect branch, the Spirit Awakening Tower would open once a year.

But when the Huayang Sect was destroyed, the Spirit Awakening Tower was destroyed by Jiuchi.

Up until now, the Evil Moon Sect hadn’t built a Spirit Awakening Tower.

Yan Xia knew that with Su Jingzhen’s current status, as long as he was willing to help, he could easily find a Spirit Awakening Tower to help her awaken her spiritual roots.

As she spoke, Yan Xia’s eyes were filled with a strong sense of determination and endless expectation.

Even before Su Jingzhen had given a response, she directly pointed one hand to the sky and one hand to the ground.

“I, Yan Xia, swear to the heavens that if I can awaken my spiritual roots in this life, no matter what level I reach, I will be Su Jingzhen’s loyal maid for life. I will be loyal to Su Jingzhen for life! If I break this oath, my martial arts will collapse, and I will be struck by heavenly thunder!”

In the cultivation world, although this kind of heavenly oath was not as binding as the contract between Su Jingzhen and Zhao Tianming, it was still extremely powerful.

No matter what level of cultivation, people generally wouldn’t break their own heavenly oaths.

After all, cultivators could sense the existence of the heavenly rules in the depths of their hearts.

Seeing Yan Xia’s determination, Su Jingzhen raised an eyebrow again, somewhat surprised.

Although he was no longer as naive as he was at the beginning, he still didn’t know much about special physiques.

Su Jingzhen remained silent for three or four seconds before nodding silently.

“Good! I’ll arrange this matter as soon as possible. You can wait for a few days.”

As soon as he said this, Yan Xia’s face lit up with excitement: “Thank you, Master Su!”

Su Jingzhen nodded again and didn’t continue to chat with her.

Everything would have to wait until after he helped her awaken her spiritual roots.

As he thought about awakening spiritual roots, Su Jingzhen’s mind suddenly flashed back to a delicate and elegant young girl, as well as a warm and gentle older woman.

“Ning Yao, I wonder how she’s doing now, and where Sister-in-law Zhang Xiu is.”

He muttered to himself.

He had just started to reveal his true abilities, but he still had many things to do.

Sister-in-law Zhang Xiu and her daughter had a great debt of gratitude towards him, and he would definitely do his best to find them.

“Cultivation… the road ahead is long and arduous.”

With a sigh, he returned to his room and closed the door.

He then cleared his mind of all distractions.

From his storage ring, he took out a bottle.

This bottle contained the North Sea Dragon’s blood that he had been thinking about for a long time!

Su Jingzhen lightly sniffed it, and even at close range, he could sense the intense and violent energy within the bottle, as well as the surging blood power.

“Miss Shuang Jiang said that if I used the North Sea Dragon’s blood to temper my body, I could solidify my foundation.

But I don’t know how much it can be improved.

Right now, my Flesh Body Golden Embryo is probably still at the initial stage of cultivation in Miss Shuang Jiang’s eyes.”

As he muttered to himself, Su Jingzhen was tempted to directly consume the two drops of North Sea Dragon’s blood.

But he restrained himself.

This was not the perfect cultivation environment he had imagined.

Whether it was the North Sea Dragon’s blood or using points to open the Stone Gate Acupoint, he wanted to go to that strange place on Clear Wind Mountain.

Moreover, he didn’t know how long it would take to use the North Sea Dragon’s blood.

Before that, he still wanted to see what the situation was like with Luo Yuebai.

Although he was the Chief Acolyte, with the authority of a vice sect master, he still needed to discuss matters related to the Spiritual Medicine Sect with Luo Yuebai.

Su Jingzhen then began to practice the Python Scales Power in his room.

When he had nothing to do, he would only feel satisfied when he was practicing the Python Scales Power and could clearly sense the growth of his blood power.

As for the Pink Poisonous Woman’s poison in the five human body Secret Repositories, he didn’t bother to deal with it for now.

He knew that at least at his current level of Flesh Body Golden Embryo, it was impossible to refine and merge it.

Regarding this, he could only wait for time to slowly resolve it.

After he finished practicing the Python Scales Power ten times, the sky outside had already completely darkened.

The moon was full.

At this time, a voice suddenly rang out from his courtyard.

“Master Su Jingzhen, are you still awake?”
