You have to know that Zhang Xiu, who reached the ninth level in the late stage of Qi Refining, has only doubled the bonus so far.
“Is the Qi Refining stage only a single multiplier? Could it be that Shuang Jiang is already a Nascent Soul old monster?”
Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Golden Dan, and Nascent Soul.
Even Su Jingzhen, who was at the bottom of the cultivation world, knew these basic realms.
However, for Su Jingzhen, Foundation Establishment might be common, but Golden Core masters were rarely seen.
Cultivators of this level were usually leaders of sects.
As for Nascent Soul old monsters…
For Su Jingzhen, who was at the bottom of the cultivation world, they were legendary existences.
And now, he strongly suspected that Shuang Jiang was a cultivator of this level!
Thinking of this, Su Jingzhen’s heart was racing even more intensely.If it was true, he would definitely cling to her tightly.
He took another glance at the attribute panel, which still showed ‘Slight Fondness’, and he finally let out a sigh of relief.
As long as this emotional connection existed, even if Shuang Jiang left in the future, he could still go to her.
It was good to have a powerful backer, and with Shuang Jiang’s strength, many troubles could be avoided.
Adding the Golden Finger’s existence, he would have no problem living a carefree life.
After being shocked for a moment, Su Jingzhen regained his composure.
Although the emotional points were enough to open the Surging Spring secret chamber, he didn’t choose to open it immediately.
With Shuang Jiang’s strength, she could easily detect his cultivation level.
If she knew that he had opened the Surging Spring secret chamber in such a short time, it would likely arouse suspicion.
Having had experience before, he was eager but not anxious about opening the secret chamber.
The points were there, and he could open the Surging Spring secret chamber at any time, which might even have an unexpected effect.
It wasn’t that he didn’t trust Shuang Jiang, but he had already shown her enough.
Some secrets needed to be hidden, and it was better to hide them as much as possible.
At this time, Su Jingzhen glanced at the quiet room again.
But he didn’t choose to go and ask questions.
He was a smart person, knowing what to ask and what not to ask.
He immediately lit the stove and started cooking with the leftover ingredients from yesterday.
He directly began cooking a meal.
As the kitchen smoke rose, a savory aroma wafted out of the kitchen.
When the dishes were served, he didn’t even need to call Shuang Jiang, as she had already walked into the kitchen on her own.
Su Jingzhen’s gaze fell on Shuang Jiang without a sound.
Although his cultivation was low, he was still sensitive enough to notice that Shuang Jiang seemed different today.
Her face, although still scarred and not pleasant to look at, seemed to have a more refined aura.
Shuang Jiang only nodded lightly at him and skillfully picked up a bowl, serving herself a portion of spiritual rice.
Then, without saying much, she sat down and started eating.
Her eating manner seemed more elegant, but her speed hadn’t slowed down at all.
Su Jingzhen also hurriedly sat down, as he had exhausted himself yesterday and needed to replenish his energy with this meal.
Shuang Jiang ate to satisfy her hunger, while he, Su Jingzhen, ate to replenish his physical strength.
A beautiful day started with a good breakfast.
After finishing the meal, Shuang Jiang, as usual, didn’t say much and returned to the quiet room.
Su Jingzhen’s heart had a hint of doubt about this.
She said she had things to do in Linjiang City, but Su Jingzhen had never seen her go out alone.
She was always staying in the quiet room.
“Could it be that her so-called business is just recovering here with me?”
“This… is indeed a business…”
He muttered to himself.
He didn’t dare to say or ask anything about it.
Walking under the peach blossom tree, he began practicing the “Python Scales Power”.
With a clear goal in mind, Su Jingzhen was quite self-disciplined in his cultivation.
After exhausting his physical strength, he thought he could absorb one-third of the body-tempering liquid today.
However, he had only practiced the “Python Scales Power” once when a knock on the door was heard.
“Mr. Su, are you there?”
A familiar voice accompanied the knock, and it was none other than Sister-in-law Zhang Xiu.
Su Jingzhen’s face lit up with joy.
As he opened the door, he saw sister-in-law Zhang Xiu standing at the door with Ning Yao.
“Ning Yao, greet Mr. Su!”
Seeing Su Jingzhen, Ning Yao respectfully bowed to him as a disciple.
Su Jingzhen hurriedly invited the mother-daughter duo into the study.
Just as he was about to walk under the peach blossom tree, Shuang Jiang seemed to have heard the commotion and had already walked out.
On the surface, Shuang Jiang was still the failed cultivator from Clear Wind Mountain with a ruined Dantian.
Some acts needed to be played out in full.
Shuang Jiang slightly bowed to Zhang Xiu.
“Shuang Jiang greets sister-in-law…”
“Miss Shuang Jiang looks quite well today.”
Zhang Xiu wasn’t just being polite, but was speaking the truth.
In her eyes, compared to their first meeting, Shuang Jiang’s current state seemed to have improved.
Moreover, Zhang Xiu vaguely sensed that Shuang Jiang had an indescribable charm about her.
With this charm, even though her face was scarred, it made her more pleasant to look at.
Perhaps this was the effect of dual cultivation.
Zhang Xiu smiled to herself.
She didn’t bother to chat with the two of them for long.
Pointing to Ning Yao, she said, “This time, sister-in-law has come to ask for your help with something.”
When she mentioned this topic, Zhang Xiu’s expression suddenly turned serious.
“The situation on Clear Wind Mountain is getting more and more tense.”
“Huayang Sect has sent a large number of disciples to the mountain in the past two days, and I’ll have to follow them tomorrow.”
“Tomorrow is also the day of Yao’er’s awakening, and I won’t be able to accompany her.
“So I can only entrust you two with this task.”
As she said this, Zhang Xiu’s tone was filled with helplessness.
There was even a hint of sadness in the depths of her eyes.
Her gaze at Ning Yao was filled with a reluctance to part and affection.
Although her cultivation was at the Qi Refining stage, there were many cultivators of this level on Clear Wind Mountain.
Even Foundation Establishment stage masters were not few in number.
And she wasn’t a direct disciple of Huayang Sect, so she couldn’t say that she was going with them this time, but was only playing the role of cannon fodder.
It was hard to say whether she would be able to return safely.
Upon hearing this, Su Jingzhen and Shuang Jiang’s expressions both changed slightly.
Ever since the incident on Clear Wind Mountain, Zhang Xiu had been busy helping Huayang Sect with internal and external affairs, always leaving early and returning late.
But it was clear that this time, the danger was more direct.
“Sister-in-law, can you not go?”
Su Jingzhen furrowed his brows and asked, which was also what he was thinking in his heart.
In his view, the most important thing was one’s own life.
Avoiding danger and seeking safety was the right path for a cultivator.
