The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

Chapter 61: Testing

“Bad news.”

“She didn’t recognize me, did she?”

At this moment, Su Jingzhen naturally saw Feng Qingya walking towards him.

His expression suddenly became tense, but his face remained calm, with an expression of surprise similar to the people around him.

When he looked at Feng Qingya, his eyes sparkled with a hint of admiration, as if he were appreciating a beautiful thing in the world.

Just like ordinary people, he was simply admiring the beauty of the world.

They had never revealed their true faces when they went to the Treasure Gathering Pavilion, and when they talked to Feng Qingya, they had intentionally changed their tone of voice.

Su Jingzhen was confident that the other party wouldn’t discover his true identity, at most, they might have some suspicions.

While everyone was surprised, Luo Yuebai’s heart skipped a beat in the central area.

“Could it be that she thinks Daoist Su is extraordinary and wants to pull him in?

“But she’s the Pavilion Master of the Linjiang City branch, and Daoist Su’s performance today is indeed exceptional, but that’s all.”

“It shouldn’t be within her scope, right?”

Luo Yuebai’s heart was slightly tense at this moment.

He had only made a preliminary guess that the pill fragrance he smelled that day was related to Su Jingzhen.

But he hadn’t had time to verify it yet.

If Feng Qingya were to get ahead of him, wouldn’t that be a pity?

He was very clear that with Feng Qingya’s charm and beauty, few low-level cultivators could resist.

If Su Jingzhen was indeed a mysterious alchemist, then Feng Qingya’s advantage would be far greater than his own.

“Daoist Su, there’s an empty seat at your table. May I sit down?”

Feng Qingya asked with a smile, her voice as smooth as honey.

As she spoke, she also nodded slightly towards Shuang Jiang and Ning Yao on the side, showing her goodwill.

She didn’t have the air of a Treasure Gathering Pavilion Master.

However, the white-haired old man behind her followed her wherever she went.

It made Ning Yao’s eyes flutter with anxiety, her small hands tightly grasping Shuang Jiang’s sleeve.

Shuang Jiang was also worried at this time, remembering that his current image was that of a ordinary person with a broken Dantian and no cultivation.

His eyes also showed some tension.

After nodding slightly to Feng Qingya, she leaned towards Su Jingzhe. For this kind of on-the-spot reaction, she was very skillful and there was no flaw at all.

“Manager Feng, please, please sit.”

At this time, Su Jingzhen directly stood up, his face showing tension mixed with some excitement.

It was completely different from his previous debate with Chen Jinshi and Chen Chong.

However, in other people’s eyes, this was the most normal reaction.

But seeing him like this, Feng Qingya’s eyebrows slightly raised.

She thought to herself: That guy seemed to be not interested in women, and was indeed different from Su Jingzhen.

After sitting down, Feng Qingya still smiled at Su Jingzhen and said, “Daoist Su’s previous remarks were very sharp, making me admire you even more.”

“Let me toast you, Daoist Su.”

Su Jingzhen’s heart skipped a beat, and he forced a laugh: “If it weren’t for being forced into a desperate situation, who would dare to provoke the Chen family?”

“But it’s okay, I, Su, will just live a simple life in Linjiang City.”

“With the existence of Huayang Sect, I don’t have to worry about my life’s safety.”

At this time, Su Jingzhen’s words were naturally meant to follow his previous statement of absolutely believing in Huayang Sect.

It was a small person’s mentality.

After speaking, he also happily raised his cup and toasted with Feng Qingya.

It was as if this was a great honor.

And it was still without any flaws, making Feng Qingya’s heart feel disappointed again.

Indeed, the difference was too great.

In her eyes, the Su Jingzhen in front of her did have some courage.

However, the control he seemed to have previously was probably also due to this incident.

More likely, it was the fragile order of Huayang Sect that gave him courage.

However, Feng Qingya was still a qualified merchant.

She still had doubts in her heart and tried to probe further: “If Daoist Su can refine pills, that would be great.”

“If Daoist Su can refine pills, perhaps my Treasure Gathering Pavilion can also provide some protection.”

As she spoke, Feng Qingya’s gaze was fixed on Su Jingzhen’s face, as if trying to find a flaw.

Unfortunately, Su Jingzhen only paused for a moment when he heard this.

Then, he smiled and said, “If I were a pill refiner, I would have become a member to Huayang Sect long ago, and the Chen family wouldn’t dare to bully me like this.”

It was still this kind of small person’s thinking!

Feng Qingya’s face still had that professional fake smile.

However, Feng Qingya’s heart was thoroughly disappointed.

She chatted with him for a few more sentences, but then lost interest.

Actually, when Chen Chong and others targeted Su Jingzhen earlier, Feng Qingya didn’t care at all.

The strong prey on the weak, and this kind of thing was too normal.

But later, Su Jingzhen’s calmness in the face of Chen Chong and Chen Jinshi, his sharp words, and his ease in controlling the situation made her feel…

It was as if she had seen someone else.

Moreover, Su Jingzhen’s name had a character “Zhe” in it.

The Alchemist token she gave out also only had the character “Zhe”.

Sometimes, some unintentional coincidences can become the truth.

She came with expectations, but ultimately left in disappointment, because that person’s greatest characteristic, Feng Qingya didn’t see in Su Jingzhen.

Earlier, at the Treasure Gathering Pavilion’s second floor, she didn’t even mind physically touching Su Jingzhen.

And at that time, Feng Qingya was also fully open with her charm.

But that guy was still unmoved.

In contrast, this Su Jingzhen, she believed that if she just used a little trick, he would probably be completely enthralled.

Feng Qingya chatted with Su Jingzhen for a few more sentences, then stood up and left directly.

Seeing this, many of the guests also stood up.

They bid farewell to Chen Chong.

Today’s atmosphere had already been made somewhat awkward by the previous incident.

They knew that Chen Chong probably didn’t have the heart to continue hosting the rest of the program.

After all, Chen Jinshi, the main character, had already left in a huff.

Now that someone had taken the lead, it would be impolite to continue staying here.

“Thank you for the hospitality, farewell!”

“We’re also leaving, farewell!”

“……”

The farewell voices rose and fell.

Chen Chong forced a smile to respond.

At this time, Su Jingzhen nodded to Shuang Jiang and stood up, bringing Ning Yao with him.

They walked to Chen Chong’s front.

“Thank you for the hospitality, farewell!”

“Although we didn’t agree on the matter of the academy today, it doesn’t affect my consideration of you as a friend, Daoist Chen Chong.”

“Tomorrow is the Awakening Ceremony held by Huayang Sect, and I, Su, am very much looking forward to seeing the elegance of your academy’s children.”

“Even though my Peach Blossom Alley Academy didn’t merge with Cuiliu Alley, we still need to strengthen our cooperation and exchange in the future.”

After speaking, he also seriously bowed to Chen Chong: “Farewell!”

Killing with a borrowed knife, that’s all.

Originally, Chen Chong could still maintain a smiling face, but after hearing Su Jingzhen’s words, his face turned completely dark.

A small person getting what they want!

Really, a small person getting what they want!

Not long after, the guests dispersed, leaving only the Cuiliu School’s mess.

The school’s teachers were bitterly cleaning up the mess.

At this time, Chen Chong arrived at a pavilion.

Chen Jinshi was sitting on a meditation cushion in the pavilion.

He seemed to be cultivating, but his heart was extremely unstable.

He couldn’t calm down.

Feeling Chen Chong’s arrival, he directly opened his eyes.

“Uncle, this person, he must die!”
