The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

Chapter 50: Leaving the Treasure Gathering Pavilion

When Su Jingzhen came down from the second floor, the people who had mocked him earlier had already left the Treasure Gathering Pavilion.

This only led to a new batch of people coming in, sighing in admiration.

“When can we go up to the second floor to trade?”

“Alas… it’s really difficult to reach the Foundation Establishment stage…”

“……”

Every time Su Jingzhen came down from the second floor, he would hear similar sighs of admiration.

But he didn’t pay attention, walking directly out of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion.

In reality, reaching the Foundation Establishment stage wasn’t difficult, but for the low-level cultivators gathered here, it was as difficult as climbing to the heavens!

……

Before returning to Peach Blossom Alley, Su Jingzhen had already changed back into his usual attire.

He would greet people as he walked, still the same kind and gentle Mr. Su.

As he passed by Luo Yuebai’s door, he saw the guy sitting on the stone steps outside.

Whenever someone walked by, he would smile and greet them.

He looked just as kind and friendly as Su Jingzhen.

“Mr. Su, going out again?”

“You’re going so frequently, are you going to the Flower Moon Pavilion?”

“I heard the female cultivators there are extremely powerful.”

“Why don’t we travel together someday?”

Since moving here, Luo Yuebai had seen Su Jingzhen almost every time he went out.

Or he would be on his way out.

At this point, Luo Yuebai considered himself to be somewhat familiar with Su Jingzhen.

It was a small, insignificant joke, but it didn’t matter.

Upon hearing this, Su Jingzhen couldn’t help but think of his youthful days not long after he had transmigrated.

The female cultivators at the Flower Moon Pavilion were indeed not to be underestimated.

He smiled and said, “If you’re free, let’s go to the Flower Moon Pavilion another day and have a few drinks.”

As a first-rate alchemist with a success rate close to 100%, if he really wanted to, he could afford the spirit stones to drink flower wine at the Flower Moon Pavilion.

Luo Yuebai’s eyes revealed a hint of surprise, but he still smiled and said, “That’s a great idea! Cultivating is indeed difficult, and it’s necessary to relax occasionally. Next time you go, don’t go alone, okay? Make sure to call me.”

“Definitely, definitely!” Su Jingzhen laughed and nodded to Luo Yuebai, without explaining too much, and then pushed open the door to return to his own school.

As he watched Su Jingzhen’s back, Luo Yuebai’s eyes narrowed slightly.

“He seems to be genuinely kind and harmless, and the rumors say that the two of them, husband and wife, are at the Qi Refining stage, with one having a completely broken Dantian.”

“It’s even said that Su Jingzhen’s Dantian has problems, and it’s unlikely he’ll make any progress in this life.”

“Was the pill really made by him last night?”

“Or is the Enlightenment School not just a residence for the two of them?”

Luo Yuebai thought to himself, his curiosity about Su Jingzhen growing more intense.

“It would be great if I could get some unexpected gains while doing my business.”

……

Su Jingzhen, of course, didn’t know that Luo Yuebai was already paying attention to him.

As soon as he pushed open the door and returned to his school, he heard a loud reading voice coming from the direction of the classroom.

Naturally, he could tell it was Ning Yao’s voice.

The girl was probably using this method to distract herself from worrying about her mother.

After all, she is just a child, and tomorrow is the time for spiritual awakening, so it was understandable that she was feeling anxious and wanted to review her lessons.

It was like the last few days before a big exam in his previous life, when even a poor student like him would still want to flip through their textbooks.

Last-minute cramming, praying to the Buddha for help.

No matter which world, this was perhaps a common human trait.

From afar, he glanced at Ning Yao through the classroom window and then headed directly to the quiet room.

Seeing Shuang Jiang sitting quietly on the stone bed, Su Jingzhen let out a sigh of relief.

He was really a bit afraid that when he came back, Shuang Jiang would be gone.

“What’s going on, did you achieve your goal?”

Seeing Su Jingzhen’s uncontrollable joy, Shuang Jiang raised an eyebrow and asked.

Su Jingzhen didn’t say a word, directly taking out the box from his storage bag.

Then he opened it.

“Miss Shuang, can you help me take a look? Is this brick a high-quality one?”

Looking at the brick lying in the box, which exuded a simple and unadorned aura, Su Jingzhen was extremely satisfied no matter how he looked at it.

Shuang Jiang’s eyes revealed a hint of curiosity.

She walked over, stretched out her hand, and took the brick.

She weighed it in her hand a few times.

Although the brick was not large, its appearance was not impressive, and Shuang Jiang holding it in her hand seemed somewhat mismatched.

But at this moment, she furrowed her brow.

It was as if there was an invisible, dark energy invading the brick, but the brick still didn’t react at all.

She tried again several times, but it was still the same.

Later, Shuang Jiang pouted and said, “The material is not bad, but it’s a broken, useless thing.”

And I think you must have spent a lot to buy this thing.”

As she asked, Shuang Jiang’s face revealed a playful smile.

Su Jingzhen scratched his head: “It didn’t cost much.”

Then he told Shuang Jiang about the conditions Feng Qingya had set, and the two of them shared a laugh.

After all, aside from sister-in-law Zhang Xiu, Shuang Jiang was the one who understood him the most.

Their emotional connection had reached the level of Slight Fondness, which was enough for him to trust her.

At least in this matter, there was no need to hide anything.

“Hmm… that’s indeed not bad.”

“But being able to treasure such an ugly, broken thing like this, perhaps only you can do that.”

?Emotional Connection+8?

?Remaining usable points: 229?

Su Jingzhen smiled silently in response to Shuang Jiang’s teasing.

If Shuang Jiang could increase his points every time she teased him, he hoped she would never stop, and he would be overwhelmed with points.

In the cultivation world, some people chose their artifacts to show off, while others chose them to suit their own abilities.

But Su Jingzhen just wanted something that fit.

What artifact he used wasn’t important; what mattered was the feeling of holding it in his hand.

Ugly or not, as long as it was useful, that was all that mattered.

Still excited, Su Jingzhen directly put the brick into his storage bag.

As for what to name it, he hadn’t thought of anything yet.

Next, Su Jingzhen took out the alchemy furnace from the corner and prepared to use up the remaining 20 Green Spirit Pill materials.

He had been making good use of his time lately.

After returning from the Treasure Gathering Pavilion, it was still before noon.

After refining the Green Spirit Pill, he would still have enough time to practice the “Python Scales Power” and then use some body-refining liquids.

The plan was going well.

However, at this moment, the door suddenly rang with a knock.

Su Jingzhen raised an eyebrow; at this time, Zhang Xiu was probably already at Clear Wind Mountain.

Who else would be knocking on his door for no reason?

Could it be Luo Yuebai?

With some doubt, Su Jingzhen opened the door.

But he saw a strange man standing on the stone steps, and Su Jingzhen’s heart became slightly vigilant.

In this era, strangers might mean danger.

The man saw Su Jingzhen and smiled: “May I ask if you are Mr. Su?”

Su Jingzhen nodded silently.

The man continued: “Greetings Mr. Su. I am Liu Bingyan, a teacher from Cuiliu Alley Cuiliu School. I’m here to deliver an invitation from our school’s principal, Chen Chong, to you.”

As he spoke, Liu Bingyan took out a golden invitation from his pocket.

Seemingly knowing Su Jingzhen had questions, he smiled and explained: “Today is the day Chen Jinshi, the principal’s nephew, is leaving his seclusion. Principal Chen is hosting a grand celebration in Linjiang City, inviting all the alleys and streets. The banquet will start at dusk today. We hope you can attend, Mr. Su.”

Without giving Su Jingzhen a chance to ask questions, Liu Bingyan directly left.
