Chapter 70

~7 min read 1,399 words

The dew moistens the mist, autumn fills the screen by the bed. The dawn light comes through the window, the recluse is still asleep.

Sleeping until sunset, Zhang Xingyu opened his eyes.

"So comfortable." Zhang Xingyu stretched and climbed out of bed.

"Dong, dong, dong," a knock on the door came from outside the courtyard.

Pushing open the courtyard gate, a beautiful woman stood outside.

This woman had an oval face, willow-leaf eyebrows, high-piled cloud-like hair, and a devilish figure.

"Zhang Xingyu, my father wants you to go to his office," the woman said lightly.

"Your father? This junior sister, may I ask who you are?" Zhang Xingyu asked suspiciously.

The woman rolled her eyes at him: "My name is Ouyang Lanlan, and my father is the Dean of the academy."

After Ouyang Lanlan finished speaking, she twisted her hips and walked away directly.

Xu Yun Lao Dao is looking for me, what could it be?

This junior sister is actually the daughter of that Xu Yun Lao Dao?

He is a Daoist, and he looks like that, yet he actually has such a beautiful daughter?

Strange, very strange!

After a simple wash, Zhang Xingyu hurried toward the academy's administrative building.

Xu Yun Lao Dao is the Dean, and since he sent someone to find me, I have to go.

Arriving at the administrative building, climbing to the third floor, he soon found the Dean's office.

The door of the Dean's office was ajar, and the voices of a man and a woman could be vaguely heard inside.

"Father, that Waste Spiritual Root, you could just send anyone to call him, why did you have to make me go?" This was Ouyang Lanlan's voice.

"Lanlan, I asked you to call him because I wanted you to have a chance to get to know him. Zhang Xingyu stayed on Dengxian Feng for thirty days, which is something that hasn't happened in thousands of years. This kid will definitely become a big figure in the Cultivation Realm in the future," Xu Yun Lao Dao said softly.

"I don't want to know him at all. The person I like is Fifth Senior Brother, and I won't like anyone else. Besides, he is just a Waste Spiritual Root, even if he stays on Dengxian Feng for a year, so what? Maybe he will still be a good-for-nothing in the future," Ouyang Lanlan pouted and said.

"You girl, why don't you understand? In the Xianxia World, strength is respected. No matter how handsome Cheng Haonan is, if he cannot cultivate successfully, he will just be a handful of yellow earth in the future. If you can marry Zhang Xingyu, when he succeeds in cultivation and ascends to the Immortal Realm, you will also have a chance to seek longevity," Xu Yun Lao Dao advised.

"Just based on him, a Waste Spiritual Root, I don't believe it even if I die. Besides, even if he can ascend to the Immortal Realm, I don't care. In this life, I only like Fifth Senior Brother, and I will only marry Fifth Senior Brother," Ouyang Lanlan's attitude was firm.

Couldn't listen anymore.

"Dong, dong, dong," Zhang Xingyu knocked hard on the door knocker.

The door opened, Ouyang Lanlan glared at Zhang Xingyu, and ran out angrily.

Xu Yun Lao Dao's old face turned red, and he asked softly: "Zhang Xingyu, did you hear everything?"

"Hear what? I just arrived, I didn't hear anything." Zhang Xingyu looked surprised.

In terms of acting, Zhang Xingyu's level is no less than an Oscar winner.

"It's good that you didn't hear. Come, come in and sit." Xu Yun Lao Dao breathed a sigh of relief and warmly greeted Zhang Xingyu into the room.

Zhang Xingyu bowed to Xu Yun Lao Dao: "Dean, you called the student here, is there anything?"

"No rush, no rush, sit down and talk." Xu Yun Lao Dao warmly greeted Zhang Xingyu to sit down.

He brewed a cup of clear tea for Zhang Xingyu and placed it gently in front of him: "Come, taste the new Spiritual Tea from Lingyin Shan. This tea only produces ten catties a year on Lingyin Shan, and ordinary people can hardly drink it."

"Thank you, Dean."

Zhang Xingyu lifted the tea lid and saw that the tea buds were standing upright, the color was clear, and the fragrance was overflowing.

He picked up the teacup, took a small sip, and immediately felt refreshed, with a lingering fragrance on his lips and teeth.

"Ding-dong, the host contributed ten points of Spiritual Aura, the amount of Spiritual Aura is insufficient, and it cannot be converted into God Yuan Value." The system's prompt sounded in Zhang Xingyu's mind.

One sip of tea is ten points of Spiritual Aura.

Zhang Xingyu was no longer polite, picked up the Spiritual Tea and drank it in one gulp.

Xu Yun Lao Dao shook his head secretly: "Like a cow chewing a peony, wasting my Spiritual Tea."

"Ding-dong, the host contributed one hundred points of Spiritual Aura, converted into one point of God Yuan Value." The system's prompt sounded again in Zhang Xingyu's mind.

"How is my tea?" Xu Yun Lao Dao asked pretentiously.

"Good tea!" Zhang Xingyu gave a thumbs up and praised.

He smacked his lips and raised the teacup: "Such good tea, if it's not enough, it's a lifelong regret. Dean, another cup?"

Xu Yun Lao Dao's heart was bleeding, but he still brewed another cup for Zhang Xingyu: "My Spiritual Tea only has this little bit left. Just this one cup, if you want to drink more, there is none."

Zhang Xingyu picked up the teacup and drank it in one gulp, another point of God Yuan Value was in hand.

It seems that in the future, I must find more Spiritual Tea to drink and get more Spiritual Food to eat.

Putting down the teacup with lingering desire, Zhang Xingyu thanked Xu Yun Lao Dao again.

"Dean, you called the student here, is there anything?" Zhang Xingyu asked.

Xu Yun Lao Dao nodded: "I called you here to ask about your experience on Dengxian Feng. Tell me in detail about the situation on Dengxian Feng."

"Yes, Dean. That day, after I got on Dengxian Lu, I was swept away by thick fog to an unknown place. There were mountains, water, and fierce beasts there. There, on the first day, I encountered... I spent thirty days there with great difficulty, and then I was sent out by the thick fog." Zhang Xingyu recounted the things he had fabricated one by one.

These things were already thought out on the way here, with truth and falsehood, truth and falsehood, falsehood and truth, absolutely impossible for anyone to hear any flaws. As for seeing Nanhua Daxian Liu Changsheng at the peak, he didn't mention it at all.

Listening to Zhang Xingyu's introduction, Xu Yun Lao Dao nodded continuously.

At the end, he raised his head and said loudly to Zhang Xingyu: "Zhang Xingyu, you have such an opportunity, it is truly something you have cultivated for several lifetimes. You must cherish it well. Although you are a Hidden Spiritual Root, you don't need to belittle yourself. You must know, the Great Dao is forty-nine, there is always a path left for people to walk. Thousands of years ago, Nanhua Daxian ascended to the Immortal Realm from Dengxian Shan. And he, the old man, also possessed a Hidden Spiritual Root."

Zhang Xingyu nodded quickly: "The Dean's lesson is right. I will definitely take Nanhua Daxian as an example and work hard to cultivate. Now, I am proud of Nanhua Immortal Academy. In the future, Nanhua Immortal Academy will definitely be proud of me."

Seeing that he spoke with such determination, Xu Yun Lao Dao praised him in his heart.

He solemnly said to Zhang Xingyu: "Zhang Xingyu, you will cultivate well in the academy from now on. If you encounter any difficulties, you can come to me. As long as I can help you solve them, I will definitely try my best to fight for you."

"Thank you, Dean." At this moment, Zhang Xingyu was truly thanking him.

He was secretly happy in his heart, from this moment on, I, Zhang Xingyu, can be considered to have a big backer in the academy.

Leaving the Dean's office, Zhang Xingyu hummed a little tune, his steps exceptionally light.
