The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

In the Enlightenment School, only Su Jingzhen and Zhang Xiu were left.

“Mr. Su, are you alright?” Zhang Xiu asked with concern in her eyes.

Su Jingzhen smiled: “If it weren’t for sister-in-law, I’d be in trouble today.”

Since last night, Zhang Xiu had been an essential part of his plan.

Fortunately, Zhang Xiu had not let him down.

“Your Dantian is in a difficult situation, and it’s hard to make progress. As a single person, it’s indeed time to consider the next generation. If the next generation has talented individuals, they can provide you with protection. Otherwise, it’s too dangerous in the cultivation world. We’ve already offended Wu Song and Chen Lin, and who knows what might happen in the future.”

Zhang Xiu’s expression suddenly turned serious.

As she spoke, her eyes shone with an unspoken brightness.

【Emotional Connection +4】

His points had increased to 13 again, but Su Jingzhen’s heart was filled with anxiety.

He knew that his Emotional Connection with Zhang Xiu had already reached the level of “Mutual Affection”.

Now that Zhang Xiu had brought up this topic, he was afraid that she might say something that would make things difficult for both of them.

After all, his current strength was still weak, and sister-in-law Zhang Xiu, as a Dao Companion, had a noble character that he respected.

Both of them had their own concerns.

“Do you believe in sister-in-law, Mr. Su?” Zhang Xiu asked again.

Su Jingzhen’s anxiety grew, and Zhang Xiu’s mature and charming aura still lingered in her every move, even though she wasn’t deliberately trying to seduce him.

But he still said, “To be honest, in Linjiang City, I only trust sister-in-law.”

This was the truth.

However, it still stirred up Zhang Xiu’s emotions.

【Emotional Connection +4】

Zhang Xiu opened her mouth, sighed softly, and smiled: “Then listen to sister-in-law this once and find a Dao Companion to bet on the next generation.”

As soon as she said this, Su Jingzhen’s heart skipped a beat.

Before he could respond, Zhang Xiu continued, “Yesterday, I met a girl who also has spiritual roots. However, her situation is even more dire than yours. Her Dantian is broken, and her cultivation is completely gone. Now, she just wants to find a safe haven and bet on the next generation. Perhaps she’s suitable for you.”

As she finished speaking, Zhang Xiu seemed to fear that Su Jingzhen wouldn’t believe her, so she added, “I told you before that there’s a secret treasure on Clear Wind Mountain. These past two days, more and more people have been flooding into Linjiang City. They’ve made some discoveries on Clear Wind Mountain, and there have been countless battles, with many people dying at the hands of the mountain’s demonic beasts. Yet, people still keep coming.”

As she spoke of this, Zhang Xiu’s face turned grave.

Zhang Xiu continued, “The girl I mentioned also went to Clear Wind Mountain, and her Dantian was broken in the battle. Fortunately, she was lucky and managed to preserve her life.”

Su Jingzhen’s heart stirred, and he knew what it was like to have a broken Dantian. As soon as he heard this, he could empathize with her.

Before he could respond, Zhang Xiu’s gaze fixed on him: “And now, you must find a Dao Companion. If you trust sister-in-law, I’ll go get her for you. This time, it’s definitely going to work.”

Zhang Xiu still had a hint of guilt in her heart from the previous failed blind date.

Su Jingzhen nodded.

What else could he say?

He knew Zhang Xiu was genuinely trying to help him, and if he refused, Zhang Xiu might even offer herself as a Dao Companion.

“Okay.”

Zhang Xiu’s face finally revealed a hint of joy.

However, there was still a hint of hidden regret in her eyes.

“That girl might not be very beautiful, but I know you’re not a superficial person who only looks at appearances.”

With that, Zhang Xiu left immediately.

It wasn’t until Zhang Xiu disappeared from the school gate that Su Jingzhen let out a bitter laugh.

What was going on here?

Zhang Xiu was supposed to be helping him out, but how did it turn into a blind date again?

Oh, wait, that wasn’t right. Zhang Xiu seemed to have a good grasp of the situation this time, and maybe the blind date process could be skipped.

In any case, with his current foundation, taking in someone with a broken Dantian wouldn’t be a problem.

This way, it would also make it easier for sister-in-law Zhang Xiu and him to get along.

He glanced at the panel, and his remaining points had increased to 17.

He smiled and began practicing the “Python Scales Power” under the peach tree.

He didn’t bother to inquire about Chen Chong’s situation.

He knew that even if Chen Chong had been played, with Chen Chong’s connections and foundation, it was impossible for him to be taken down so easily.

Compared to Chen Chong’s situation, he was more concerned about why his actions had been so smooth last night.

From the Enlightenment School to the Cuiliu School, everything had gone so smoothly, as if it had been rehearsed beforehand.

He couldn’t understand it, but he didn’t think too much about it, just assuming he was a chosen one.

After practicing the “Python Scales Power” once, sister-in-law Zhang Xiu still hadn’t arrived, so he didn’t continue.

Today, he was supposed to go buy some beast meat and other food to help with his cultivation.

Now, he could only wait, and he couldn’t just leave Zhang Xiu hanging.

After waiting for about half an hour, Su Jingzhen’s keen ears picked up the sound of conversation coming from outside the door.

He stood up and adjusted his clothes.

Soon, two figures appeared outside the door – Zhang Xiu and the girl she had brought.

However, when Su Jingzhen saw the person following behind Zhang Xiu, he rubbed his eyes in disbelief.

But even if he rubbed his eyes until they were sore, he couldn’t change the scene before him.

The pitiful girl with a broken Dantian, the Clear Wind Mountain failure.

It was none other than Shuang Jiang!

He swallowed hard, and his mind was blown.

At this moment, Su Jingzhen could even see a hint of cunning in Shuang Jiang’s eyes when she looked at him.

She wore a black practice uniform, simple and neat, and the scars on her face were still gruesome, but she didn’t try to hide them, revealing them openly.

Su Jingzhen was completely stunned, and he didn’t care how Shuang Jiang had hooked up with Zhang Xiu – it shouldn’t be difficult for someone with her skills.

But he didn’t know what kind of trickery was going on here.

He wouldn’t believe that Shuang Jiang’s Dantian was really broken.

However, he did feel a hint of excitement in his heart.

Was this a case of “lost and found”?

With Shuang Jiang around, wouldn’t his points skyrocket?

As long as he was careful, the opening of the Surging Spring secret would be imminent!

And at this moment, he suddenly thought of something – could it be that Shuang Jiang was related to the smooth progress of his actions last night?

This thought made him freeze again.

“Hehe, don’t be stunned, I’ve brought her to you.”

“You two should get acquainted.”

Zhang Xiu smiled at Su Jingzhen.

“This girl is Shuang Jiang, and you’re Su Jingzhen – perhaps your names are a kind of fate.”

Su Jingzhen came back to his senses and smiled at Shuang Jiang: “I’m Su Jingzhen, nice to meet you, Shuang Jiang.”
