The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

Chapter 69: Su Jingzhen’s Terror

While Su Jingzhe and Luo Yuebai were chatting casually, no one in the central area dared to challenge Chen Jinshi.

He was about to be promoted to an inner sect disciple of Huayang Sect without any suspense!

At this moment, all the disciples of Huayang Sect who were present congratulated Chen Jinshi.

However, Su Jingzhen felt a piercing gaze falling on himself.

He looked around and saw Chen Chong among the crowd.

If you ask who is the most excited person at this time, it was not Chen Jinshi himself.

It was Chen Chong!

All his previous things were to make way for Chen Jinshi, and finally, he hadn’t disappointed these expectations.

Now that Chen Jinshi had successfully been promoted, Chen Chong wouldn’t have too many worries when doing things in the future.

Seeing Su Jingzhen looking over, Chen Chong’s mouth curled up into a proud smile.

He even involuntarily made a throat-slitting gesture towards Su Jingzhen.

Although Chen Chong’s usual demeanor didn’t suit such frivolous actions, he couldn’t conceal his excitement.

Although the Chen family had lost face last night, they had already regained it today.

However, the desire to kill Su Jingzhen remained unchanged.

After all, one couldn’t forget the shame of yesterday just because of today’s glory.

What had happened was already a fact and couldn’t be erased.

Su Jingzhen, however, only responded with a smile.

“There’s no trouble under the heavens, only the foolish create their own troubles.”

After a round of congratulations, Cao Qing took the initiative to walk down from the central region.

As previously mentioned, everything from now on would be handed over to Chen Jinshi.

Now, they were finally entering the main topic of today.

Chen Jinshi’s gaze swept across the faces of everyone present.

When he saw Su Jingzhen in the corner, he only paused for a moment.

That warm and gentle smile reappeared on his face.

“Today, I am grateful for the kindness of the sect’s elders, allowing me to be promoted to an inner sect disciple.”

“No need for idle chatter; I won’t say much.”

“Now, let me borrow the power of the Huayang Sect’s Spirit Tower to open the tower for all the fellow daoists present!”

Everyone had thought that Chen Jinshi, who had just been promoted, would give a long and grand speech.

But unexpectedly, he was so straightforward.

He immediately won the praise of the crowd once again.

After all, everyone’s time was precious, and they didn’t want to waste it.

“Brother Chen is indeed different; if it were those old men from Huayang Sect, they would probably drone on for half a day.”

“Brother Chen is indeed the ideal husband in my heart.”

“…”

Regardless of the world, admiration for the strong seems to be universal.

There were many crazy fans!

As soon as the words fell, Chen Jinshi directly walked towards the ancient white tower beside the statue.

The white tower’s gate was tightly closed, and Chen Jinshi’s aura, which was full of spiritual energy, suddenly surged up.

With a flick of his hand, an invisible spiritual force landed on the four corners of the white tower’s gate.

Everyone only heard a loud rumbling sound.

The tower gate then opened wide.

On the tower’s body, a colorful light flashed for an instant.

The entire Spirit Tower seemed to have been awakened by Chen Jinshi’s actions.

In reality, the process of opening the Spirit Tower wasn’t too complicated, and after opening it, one only needed to let those who wanted to awaken their spiritual roots enter.

Those who wanted to awaken their spiritual roots would enter one by one.

The Spirit Stones inside would automatically detect the spiritual roots of those who entered.

So, as long as someone had a bit of cultivation, they could open the Spirit Tower and take charge of this matter.

Letting Chen Jinshi do it was just to give him face.

After Chen Jinshi opened the Spirit Tower, Chen Chong called out to the Cuiliu School children behind him.

They then lined up to enter the tower.

What’s the saying? “Those who are near the water tower get the moon first.” This was it.

No one dared to object to this.

At this moment, the Chen family was the undisputed main character on this square.

Before anyone officially entered the Spirit Tower, there were over a dozen late-stage cultivators standing around the tower.

Although the Spirit Awakening Ceremony didn’t have any danger, caution was the norm for all cultivators.

One had to be prepared for any eventuality.

“It’s said that Chen, the friend from Cuiliu School, made a bet with Su Jingzhen from Peach Blossom Alley last night.”

“But looking at it now, it seems like there’s no need to compare.”

“Yes, with Chen Jinshi personally hosting the Spirit Awakening Ceremony, if one of the children from Peach Blossom Alley Enlightenment School can have a spiritual awakening. I will concede.”

“That Su Jingzhe is really a clown. It is said that his cultivation is only at the early stage of Qi Refining. It is really a compliment for such a person who even dogs don’t want to pay attention to to be able to compete with Daoist Chen Jinshi.”

“You’re speaking incorrectly. Are you saying that Chen Jinshi is not even as good as a dog?”

“……”

Seeing Chen Chong’s actions, the crowd on the square started discussing again.

Su Jingzhen felt like he was being targeted again for no reason.

What’s going on? He hadn’t done anything yet.

Today’s situation had developed to this point, and everyone knew he was an unlucky guy, so why was he still receiving so many disdainful glances?

Su Jingzhen’s expression remained calm and carefree, but his eyes were observing everything.

?Emotional Connection+8?

?Remaining usable points: 315?

Su Jingzhen was stunned.

He subconsciously glanced at Shuang Jiang beside him, who still had a poker face.

Su Jingzhen didn’t expect that he could earn Shuang Jiang’s points without doing anything.

“Daoist Su is indeed very open-minded.”

At this time, Luo Yuebai looked around the scene and then smiled at Su Jingzhen, with a hint of teasing in his tone.

Su Jingzhen knew what Luo Yuebai meant and sighed again, “Let them mock me, I’ll just ignore them. The sun will still shine brightly regardless of their laughter.”

?Emotional Connection+8?

?Remaining usable points: 323?

Although it wasn’t the first time Su Jingzhen said this, Shuang Jiang was still moved again.

She felt that this phrase could be repeatedly savored.

Even Luo Yuebai in front of him was stunned for a moment.

His gaze towards Su Jingzhen became strange again.

This phrase had shaken his heart.

He, of course, knew that Su Jingzhen had said it very naturally.

But it was precisely this naturalness that highlighted his extraordinariness.

Luo Yuebai’s curiosity about Su Jingzhen grew even more intense.

However, as Luo Yuebai’s perception of Su Jingzhen gradually changed, Su Jingzhen was suddenly shocked.

Because, at this moment, a line of golden text appeared in front of his eyes again.

?Emotional Connection with Luo Yuebai reached: No Hostility?

Reward points:

Level bonus: 1x

Cultivation bonus: 2x

Remaining usable points: 333?

Su Jingzhen stood there, stunned, his gaze towards Luo Yuebai filled with strangeness and a hint of fear.

Oh no, there is nothing wrong with my orientation..

How did I form an Emotional Connection with him?!
