Chapter 283
The imperial court and even the Yuan clan still think that this army is still the remnants of the Huang Jin army!
However, because these Huang Jin remnants rarely come out to plunder, and even if they do, they only target a few targets or simply target other mountain bandits.
Therefore, the imperial court didn't pay much attention to them, and certainly wouldn't take the initiative to find trouble for them!
No need!
The Yuan clan actually hates the Huang Jin remnants in Tongbai Mountain and wishes they could send troops to annihilate them.
Because, over these past few years, this Huang Jin army has plundered the Yuan clan's overt and covert caravan forces the most.
It is unknown whether they did it on purpose or if it was purely an accident.
It is just that the Yuan clan still doesn't dare to openly send troops to attack; otherwise, given the hatred between the two sides, they would have already taken action.
Digressing, let's return to Su Xuan's side.
"So that's it! I forgot!"
Su Xuan heard this, slapped his head, and then said: "Speaking of which, Zilong is already 18; it is time to introduce a marriage to him!"
"Not only him, but Xu Chu, Taishi Ci, and the others should also get married!"
"They are all over twenty! If they don't get married, they will become old bachelors! That won't do!"
"This is my dereliction of duty as their Lord."
"I am still waiting for them to have children and properly cultivate their children into talents to continue serving my Su family!"
"It seems I have to talk to my mother about this!"
"Let's see which family in Jingzhou has an age-appropriate woman suitable for them."
Originally, this matter should have been presided over and worried about by Miss Xun Cai Cai, but didn't Miss Xun Cai Cai just finish giving birth?
It is not suitable for her to move around, so let his mother do it for now!
"Haha!"
Huang Zhong heard this and couldn't help but laugh: "It is indeed time to find someone to manage Zilong and Ziyi and the others!"
"So they don't just know how to cultivate every day, putting so much pressure on an old man like me!"
Taishi Ci and the others on the side couldn't help but roll their eyes upon hearing this.
Especially Taishi Ci, who couldn't help but complain: "Brother Hansheng, forget it! You have already achieved the Heaven-Man Divine General realm; who can catch up to you?"
That is the legendary Heaven-Man Divine General!
Before Huang Zhong, it had already become a legend; for many years, there had been no news of a true Heaven-Man Divine General!
Oh! That Daoist Zuo Ci who joined last year seems to be a Heaven-Man level martial artist.
But he is a hermit and hasn't really appeared in the past few decades, so he doesn't count!
Although with the help of the many divine techniques and secret arts from the Lord, Taishi Ci also has great confidence that he can achieve the Heaven-Man Divine General realm.
But who knows how many years it will take?
Didn't even Huang Zhong get stuck for several years?
Of course, that also has to do with the Mind Observation Technique coming out a bit late.
According to Huang Zhong, this is the best thing to assist in breaking through to the Heaven-Man Divine General realm.
"Haha!"
Huang Zhong heard this and felt happy: "Where! Where! You are too modest; with the divine techniques and secret arts provided by the Lord, the mere Heaven-Man realm is just a matter of time!"
"Your talents are not bad at all."
"The ones that were lacking have slowly been improved with the Tendon-Tempering and Bone-Forging Technique; you are all geniuses."
Hmm! Including his son Huang Xu.
Over the past few years, under his tireless cultivation, Huang Xu has become a small expert at the early stage of the Transformation Realm; he is only 16, not much worse than Zhao Yun was back then.
He is definitely a genius.
"That is true!"
Taishi Ci and the others nodded with a smile.
If they didn't even have this confidence, they would be too sorry for the Lord's trust and support.
Let's put it this way! Even a pig, under the Lord's support and cultivation, could become an exotic beast pig.
Nanhua Mountain in Qingzhou,
inside the Daoist temple of the Nanhua Immortal,
Zuo Ci and the Nanhua Immortal sat opposite each other, drinking tea and chatting.
Nanhua carefully examined Zuo Ci and said with some surprise: "Congratulations to Fellow Daoist Yuanfang for recovering from your lingering illness and restoring your origin!"
"In this way, you have no worries about your lifespan in the short term."
"However, the loss of origin essence is not so easy to recover; I remember meeting you a few years ago, Fellow Daoist, and you showed no signs of recovery at all, right?"
"How did you suddenly recover this time?"
Nanhua was really curious about this.
Because, if he could know how Zuo Ci recovered from the damage to his origin essence, it would mean he could also know how to replenish origin essence or pure essence;
This would be very helpful for his subsequent cultivation.
He was also still just an existence at the perfection of Refining Essence into Qi; wanting to break through into Refining Qi into Spirit was too difficult, requiring too much essence.
And he didn't dare to consume and transform excessively; otherwise, he would only end up in the same situation Zuo Ci was in a few years ago.
Not only would his strength be unable to improve, and his lifespan unable to increase, but he would even lose lifespan and strength.
It would be a loss that outweighs the gain.
In the end, it was because the blockade of the spiritual energy path by the will of heaven and earth was too strict!
It basically blocked their path forward!
If Refining Essence into Qi could still be maintained by eating exotic beast meat and taking precious medicine, then Refining Qi into Spirit was truly basically completely blocked.
Refining Qi, Refining Qi; this stage naturally requires refining heaven and earth spiritual energy to achieve.
Wanting to rely on one's own essence to transform into origin and spiritual power?
It is not impossible, but that would definitely be an astronomical number.
"Haha!"
Zuo Ci saw that he hadn't even started to bluff, and Nanhua had already taken the bait, so he laughed loudly and said proudly: "Naturally, it is because I have served a good Lord and obtained some opportunities!"
"Lord?"
Nanhua was stunned: "You actually recognized a master? As a practitioner of the Dao, involving yourself in worldly affairs, are you serious?"
He felt he couldn't keep up with Zuo Ci's train of thought at all.
You are not a civil official or a military general; why the hell are you recognizing a master?
Do you have a need for money and power?
Completely unable to understand.
But he was still curious about the opportunity Zuo Ci mentioned: "Let's talk about this opportunity! Could it be that this opportunity was given by the Lord you recognized? Who is this person?"
"Correct!"
Zuo Ci nodded affirmatively: "My Lord is the General Conquering the South, Su Xuan; do you know him?"
"Su Xuan?"
Nanhua raised his eyebrows: "I know him, naturally I know him! Speaking of which, my disciple Zhang Jiao died at his hands! How could I not know him?"
"Eh?"
Zuo Ci was stunned; he had actually forgotten about this.
That Zhang Jiao was a disciple accepted by Nanhua.
Isn't this awkward?
Nanhua saw that Zuo Ci's expression was wrong, and waved his hand: "You don't need to worry that I will hold a grudge for Zhang Jiao!"
"After all, strictly speaking, he was not killed by Su Xuan, but committed suicide!"
"Even if he didn't commit suicide, his fate was already doomed from the moment he failed to cut the Great Han's Qi Golden Dragon!"
"I do know that Zhang Jiao entrusted the Taiping Heavenly Book and his daughter Zhang Ning to Su Xuan before he died, so it is even more impossible for me to take action against Su Xuan."
Zuo Ci breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
Then he shook his head amusedly: "I was too nervous!"
"However, even if you truly have a grudge against my Lord, I do not suggest you go for revenge; otherwise, you won't be able to come back!"
"Hmm?"
Nanhua frowned, looked at Zuo Ci with burning eyes, and revealed a trace of mockery: "Ho? You, Zuo Yuanfang, actually have the confidence to deal with me? It seems you are very confident in your current strength?"
