This ti on the second floor of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion, Feng Qingya’s clothes were as unrestrained as usual. but she didn’t make any moves to entice Su Jingzhen.
It was unclear whether she had changed her ways after regaining her status at the Alchemist’s Conference or was still brooding over her failed proposal.
In any case, until Su Jingzhen left the Treasure Gathering Pavilion, the two of them got along relatively peacefully.
“Hey, big shot, co and play with us~”
As soon as Su Jingzhen left the Treasure Gathering Pavilion, he heard a familiar call.
He subconsciously turned his head to see the courtesans from the Flower Moon Pavilion’s second floor, flirting and making eyes at him.
Su Jingzhen couldn’t help but glance at his own hands.
These hands had touched Luo Yuebai’s soft skin just last night.
“I’d rather eat a single peach from the heavens than a whole basket of rotten apricots. I’m really disappointed in my forr self.”
Su Jingzhen muttered to himself, then turned his head away, no longer looking at the courtesans.
As Su Jingzhen headed towards the Evil Moon Sect, Feng Qingya remained seated on the luxurious chair on the second floor of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion, looking a bit dazed.
She was playing with the purified Phantom Beast Crystal Core in her hand.
“This technique… is unheard of in the Qingzhou region. If the Treasure Gathering Pavilion can really get our hands on it, then the Yunng City Treasure Gathering Pavilion, or rather, my Feng Family, might beco the leader of the five great families of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion!”
However, Feng Qingya’s expression turned gloomy.
“The problem is, this thing is in Su Jingzhen’s hands, and that’s not easy to deal with.”
Feng Qingya thought to herself. If it were anyone else, she might try to find a way to take control of this technique or force them to cooperate with the Treasure Gathering Pavilion.
But with Su Jingzhen, she knew that using force was out of the question.
“I don’t quite understand Su Jingzhen’s mindset, but I’ll definitely get my hands on this purification technique one day. The question is, what do I need to give up to get it? That’s what’s giving a headache.”
As Feng Qingya pondered, she felt a bit frustrated.
She had previously thought she could manipulate Su Jingzhen, but now she was increasingly unsure about him.
Just then, Master Mu appeared on the second floor.
“In fact, isn’t the main purpose of Miss coming here this ti for Master Su? With his current abilities and potential, he might be an excellent candidate.
And Ancestor is also very supportive of this matter. If it succeeds, wouldn’t it be easy for you to get the purification technique?”
As Master Mu spoke, his words were laced with a hint of expectation.
However, Feng Qingya’s face showed a look of surprise. She hadn’t expected Master Mu, who was usually quite serious, to say sothing like that.
But this ti, she didn’t refute him.
“I know that, but we can’t force him, can we? We can’t force him to do sothing he doesn’t want to do, just like we can’t force ourselves to do sothing we don’t want to do.”
Feng Qingya paused for a mont before continuing.
“And besides, in his eyes, I’m probably just a ruthless and cunning rchant. I’m not as carefree and charming as Luo Yuebai.”
As she spoke, Feng Qingya let out a sigh.
Master Mu smiled slightly in response.
“As long as you have the heart, just be yourself. You’ve spent more ti with Master Su than the Sect Master Lu has, after all.”
Feng Qingya smiled faintly, but didn’t continue the conversation.
“Let’s talk about this later. For now, let’s focus on finding the Spirit Array Disk and Spirit Stones that Su Jingzhen wants.”
As she spoke, Feng Qingya’s brow furrowed again.
“But Master Su is already at such a high level of cultivation. And Ning Yao, the girl he used to care about, was taken away by Jiuchi. Why does he need these things now?”
Feng Qingya’s eyes narrowed.
“It’s clear that he’s very interested in this, but I don’t see any children around him. Master Mu, why don’t you have soone investigate? I have a feeling that Master Su is hiding sothing, and it’s piquing my curiosity.”
Master Mu nodded and left.
He had a general idea of his mistress’s thoughts, but he didn’t need to spell it out. A hint was enough.
anwhile, Su Jingzhen returned to the Evil Moon Sect and didn’t go back to his own courtyard. Instead, he headed towards the deeper parts of the sect.
He walked through the winding paths and courtyards, his footsteps quiet on the stone pavent.
As he walked, the buildings around him grew more and more dilapidated, and the air grew thick with the scent of incense and decay.
Su Jingzhen’s eyes seed to gleam with a faint light as he walked, as if he was searching for sothing.
Su Jingzhen directly arrived at Shen Yifeng’s residence.
Shen Yifeng was not in the midst of cultivation at the mont.
Instead, he was leisurely pruning the few spiritual flowers he had planted in the courtyard.
Upon seeing Su Jingzhen’s arrival, he seed to be slightly surprised.
“Ah, what wind blew you here? I thought that after you got together with Luo Yuebai, you’d forgotten that you still have a teacher like .”
After putting down the pruning shears, he continued, “Speak up, what do you need this ti? Or what trouble do you need to help you with?”
It was clear that although the two had not spent much ti together, Shen Yifeng still had a good understanding of Su Jingzhen’s nature.
Su Jingzhen’s expression was slightly awkward as he smiled and said, “Look at you, old master. Can’t I just co visit you when I have nothing to do?”
Su Jingzhen was aware that Shen Yifeng, a Nascent Soul cultivator, had been stationed in Linjiang City as a sort of foundation, guarding the Evil Moon Sect’s Linjiang City branch.
Although he had not deliberately inquired about Shen Yifeng’s position within the entire Evil Moon Sect, he knew that Shen Yifeng must be quite lonely here.
After all, the cultivators in Linjiang City were generally not very strong, and he couldn’t play together with the younger generation.
“Cut the crap, just get to the point. I may not be able to teach you anything, but if you have any requests, I can try to fulfill them.”
Upon hearing Shen Yifeng’s words, Su Jingzhen smiled and approached him.
“Master, I don’t like what you said. It’s really hurting my feelings. This ti, I ca here just to ask for a secret technique from you. Such a simple request, and you’re thinking of as what?”
Before Shen Yifeng could respond, Su Jingzhen continued, “I don’t need anything too advanced, just sothing suitable for Golden Core to Nascent Soul cultivators would be fine.”
Upon hearing this, Shen Yifeng’s mouth curled into a cold smile.
“I knew it, you little scoundrel. You’re always up to sothing.”
Su Jingzhen quickly walked over to Shen Yifeng and began to massage his shoulders.
As soone who had lived through two lifetis, Su Jingzhen knew how to behave in front of different people.
In the demonic path, people were often unscrupulous, and even between master and disciple, joking around could actually improve their relationship.
In front of Shen Yifeng, being too serious would only have the opposite effect.
“Master, you’re a Nascent Soul cultivator, and you can’t even co up with a body cultivation technique? That’s impossible, right?”
Shen Yifeng chuckled and said, “You little rascal, you’re not wrong. I do have a secret technique here!”
Sure enough, in Su Jingzhen’s usual coarse and rough style, Shen Yifeng couldn’t help but smile.
He didn’t like it when the people he cared about kept their distance from him.
At this ti, Shen Yifeng had not yet taken out the secret book.
A voice sounded outside Shen Yifeng’s yard.
“Third Grandfather, are you there?”
As soon as the voice was heard, Luo Yuebai, dressed in a white dress as white as snow, had already entered the courtyard.
When she saw Su Jingzhen’s figure, Luo Yuebai’s face showed a hint of surprise.
But she quickly regained her composure.
However, in the next mont, Su Jingzhen’s single action made Luo Yuebai’s anger and emotions surge up again.
At that mont, when he saw Luo Yuebai, Su Jingzhen couldn’t help but glance at his own hands.
But it was only for an instant, and his expression was slightly awkward.
This made Shen Yifeng slightly puzzled.
His perception was extrely keen, and in that instant, he sensed that sothing was off between Luo Yuebai and Su Jingzhen.
There’s sothing going on!
