The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

“Ah? A… a partner?”

Su Jingzhen was stunned.

Before transmigrating, he had never been in a romantic relationship. After transmigrating, he had to maintain his cultivator identity, and every day was a struggle to earn spirit stones to make a living. He had never thought about this aspect of his life.

Zhang Xiu wiped her shoes clean and walked to the eaves of the house: “Your cultivation may have regressed, but your spiritual roots are still there, which is not something ordinary people can compare to.”

Although the children of cultivators may not necessarily have spiritual roots, the probability is still much higher than that of ordinary people.

Spiritual roots, in this cultivation world, are the only standard that determines whether someone is superior or not!

Even someone like Su Jingzhen, with the lowest level of spiritual roots, still surpasses billions of ordinary people.

Before Su Jingzhen could respond, Zhang Xiu continued, “Actually, your sister-in-law has been considering this matter for the past two years, but just couldn’t find a suitable candidate.”

Su Jingzhen’s dantian was severely damaged, and in the eyes of ordinary people, being able to maintain his Qi refining cultivation was already the best result.

“Recently, your sister-in-law has found a good candidate for you, a girl named Yan Xia. When she awakened, her spiritual roots didn’t awaken, but it was still in a semi-awakened state.”

“It’s considered a pseudo-spiritual roots, and if luck is on their side, there’s a possibility of awakening in the future.”

“The key is that her parents are both cultivators with spiritual roots, and she has a foundation for it. If you two become partners, the probability of your children having spiritual roots will be very high.”

Zhang Xiu looked at Su Jingzhen expectantly.

This is a common phenomenon in the cultivation world: if two ordinary people have a child with spiritual roots, it can immediately change their fate.

Although it’s not a guarantee of eternal life, ordinary people wouldn’t dare offend immortals, and they would live a life of wealth and comfort without worries.

A cultivator couple without hope of cultivation, if they have a child with double spiritual roots or even single spiritual roots, would be noticed by a large sect, and that would be a great opportunity for them to rise to prominence.

Su Jingzhen scratched his head: “But… you know my situation, sister-in-law. Even if someone has a chance to awaken their spiritual roots, would they still look at me?”

He wasn’t being humble, but rather, he had self-awareness.

His dantian was damaged, and a pseudo-spiritual roots person might not necessarily look at him.

Not to mention that he knew his own situation, and he wasn’t just damaged, but possibly completely broken.

A pseudo-spiritual roots person may not be qualified to cultivate, but they would be an absolute genius in practicing mundane martial arts, and their future would be limitless, comparable to a Qi refining cultivator.

Zhang Xiu smiled again: “Mr. Su, you’re so excellent, whoever marries you will be blessed.”

“Tomorrow, I’ll act as the matchmaker, and you two can meet. As long as you take a liking to each other, this matter will be settled!”

Zhang Xiu spoke with confidence.

Su Jingzhen opened his mouth, but didn’t know what to say, so he just nodded.

Zhang Xiu was truly concerned about him and was his benefactor, so he didn’t want to disappoint her enthusiasm.

In any case, meeting once wouldn’t hurt.

If it’s like Zhang Xiu said, and they hit it off… then, it might not be a bad way to live.

Seeing this, Zhang Xiu was overjoyed.

“Great, then it’s settled. Tomorrow after school, at Chunxi Restaurant, I’ll bring the person to meet you. You can’t miss it, okay?”

After speaking, Zhang Xiu hurriedly left, her figure disappearing at the school gate.

Su Jingzhen was still in a daze, looking at the footprints on the small muddy road.

He smiled slightly: “This place is a mess, I’ll have to pave the road and clean it up.”

……

Even in the cultivation world, peach blossoms have spiritual energy, but after blooming, they will eventually wither.

After the spring breeze passed, the entire courtyard was filled with a layer of light pink flower petals.

Because of this peach tree, the scenery in the courtyard changed every day, but for Su Jingzhen, teaching children was a repetitive task.

“Goodbye, Mr. Su!”

“…….”

After a burst of laughter, the school returned to silence.

Su Jingzhen quickly returned to his residence and changed into a set of sky-blue robes.

This set of clothes was tailored by the girls from Qishui Workshop, who had measured and cut the fabric for him when the school first opened, costing five spirit stones.

It was said that the fabric was made from the silk of heavenly snow silkworms from Qingzhou’s Yunmeng City, which had the effect of keeping him warm in winter and cool in summer.

Except for the day the school opened, Su Jingzhen rarely wore it.

Not to mention, people rely on clothes, and horses rely on saddles.

After changing into this outfit, the faintly discernible aura of poverty that Su Jingzhen had previously possessed truly disappeared.

……

In Linjiang City, Chunxi Restaurant was considered one of the highest-ranking Restaurants.

It was directly operated by the Huayang Sect’s Linjiang branch.

The spiritual beast meat and spiritual wine sold here were very beneficial to cultivators.

Most of the people who came here were mid-stage Qi refining cultivators or above.

Coming here for a meal would cost several spirit stones, which was not friendly to Qi refining cultivators.

“Mr. Su, you’re free today, too.”

“Mr. Su, long time no see.”

“…….”

As Su Jingzhen walked into Chunxi Restaurant, many people greeted him with a friendly smile.

Although Peach Blossom Alley’s spiritual energy was not as strong as other streets in Linjiang City, there were still many cultivators living there. Cultivators sought immortality, but if they had no hope of cultivating, they would try to find a partner to secure their next generation.

Peach Blossom Alley had low rent, and the cultivators there were not very powerful, so many of them sent their children to Su Jingzhen for education.

Now, although his cultivation was weak, he was still respected.

Su Jingzhen smiled and greeted the cultivators from Peach Blossom Alley, and walked straight to the innermost table facing the window.

As soon as he arrived, he saw Zhang Xiu waving at him.

Zhang Xiu was dressed up today, wearing a white shirt and a blue skirt, with a bun on her head and a jade hairpin, which made her look even more beautiful.

When she saw Su Jingzhen, her peach-blossom-like eyes sparkled, and her smile was like a sunny day, mature and reserved.

Su Jingzhen noticed her immediately.

At the eight-immortal table, Zhang Xiu and a slender, beautiful girl with a few strands of hair hanging down her forehead were sitting on either side.

This must be Yan Xia.

“Sister-in-law, I’m sorry to have kept you waiting.”

Su Jingzhen apologized with a smile, then sat down across from Yan Xia.

Upon closer inspection, Yan Xia was indeed beautiful, and if she were on Earth before Su Jingzhen transmigrated, she would probably have many admirers.

Su Jingzhen didn’t have any complaints about her appearance.

“I’m Su Jingzhen.”

Although Zhang Xiu might have already informed her about his basic situation, the basic process of matchmaking still needed to be followed.

“I’m Yan Xia, nice to meet you, Mr. Su.”

The girl’s face turned slightly red as she spoke.

Su Jingzhen was born with a handsome appearance, and as a teacher, he had a refined and elegant aura.

Adding to that, his identity as a cultivator made him a perfect match for Yan Xia.

Seeing this, Zhang Xiu couldn’t help but smile and wink at Su Jingzhen.

It was as if she was saying: “See, I didn’t deceive you, this is a sure thing!”

Su Jingzhen smiled, looking at Yan Xia: “I’m sure sister-in-law Zhang has already told you about my situation, but I think it’s necessary to tell you again.”

As soon as Su Jingzhen said this, Zhang Xiu’s face changed slightly.

She thought to herself, “This is not good.”

Su Jingzhen continued, “My cultivation was once very good, reaching the late stage of Qi refining, but now my dantian is damaged and close to breaking, and my cultivation has dropped to the initial stage of Qi refining. I only have a single layer of cultivation left. However, I still have some experience and insights from before…”

Before Su Jingzhen could finish speaking, Yan Xia’s face changed.

“Wait!” she interrupted.

Her face showed a mix of surprise and anger.

“Sister Zhang, his dantian is broken? You didn’t tell me about this before!”

Zhang Xiu’s face turned slightly red with embarrassment.

Before she could explain, Yan Xia coldly laughed and said, “Sister Zhang, you told me that Mr. Su was very talented and would definitely not be stuck at the Qi refining stage. But now, it turns out that his dantian is broken. Who knows if he can even maintain his cultivator identity in the future? If I can’t enter the Qi refining stage, will I have to be sent back to the mortal realm with him?”

This statement left Su Jingzhen stunned.

This woman’s mood changed as quickly as flipping a book.

He thought that Zhang Xiu had already told her about his situation.

“Yan Xia, Mr. Su is a very good person, and you two are a perfect match. He still has spiritual roots, and if you two combine…”

Zhang Xiu’s words were interrupted again by Yan Xia: “Enough, Sister Zhang. You don’t understand what I want. You think Mr. Su is good, but I think you two are a good match. You two can become partners, and even if Mr. Su becomes a mortal, you won’t have to worry about being sent back to the mortal realm. I don’t have such good fortune, so I’ll take my leave!”

After speaking, Yan Xia didn’t give Zhang Xiu a chance to persuade her and left immediately.

Although this might offend Zhang Xiu, her parents were cultivators, and she wasn’t afraid.

After Yan Xia left, the wine and dishes finally arrived.

After all they had spent several spirit stones, it would be a waste not to eat them.

However, Zhang Xiu and Su Jingzhen ate in silence, as the atmosphere was extremely awkward.

For Zhang Xiu, she had always admired Su Jingzhen’s teaching abilities, and she thought that their children would have a high chance of becoming talented.

She wanted to say something but hesitated.

After finishing the meal, Zhang Xiu looked at Su Jingzhen with her beautiful eyes.

She was angry but didn’t want to hurt his self-esteem, so she pointed at him and said, “You’re just too honest…”
