Protagonist:
Xu Zhangqing
Xu Zhangqing rode the Big Leaf Grass at top speed toward his own spirit field.
On the way, with a thought, the three communication talismans for female cultivators he had received from Li Sancai appeared out of thin air in his right palm.
He didn't even glance at them, channeling fire spirit power from his Qi Sea; his palm grew warm, then with a "hiss,"
the three communication talismans burned to ash under the high heat.
A gust of wind blew, and they vanished without a trace.
Meeting someone like Zhao Yingli on his first blind date made Xu Zhangqing lose interest in the others.
Keeping them would only affect his farming speed.
Better to burn them all and settle it once and for all.
Soon, Xu Zhangqing returned to the spirit field.
Here was no different from when he left.
The fortress patrolled diligently, circle after circle.
Wangwang and the guinea fowl huddled in their warm nest, too lazy to come out.
The five fire crows circled in the air from time to time, then flew away.
As for the spirit plants in the spirit field, aside from the harvested Mingyue Grass and Golden Crow Vine, the spirit rice, vegetables, four-leaf clover, and others were growing well and would mature in a few more days.
An hour later, as Xu Zhangqing was ripening the spirit plants in the First Mu Second Grade Spirit Field, a fire crow suddenly let out a "ga wu" alert call.
He quickly closed his eyes and checked the images in the shared vision.
He saw Zhang Sufei flying over, followed by a group of earth spirit root disciples behind him.
These people seemed to be the Wu Guangman Team they had cooperated with before.
Xu Zhangqing was surprised: "What's going on?"
Soon, Zhang Su appeared riding a travel tool, calling out before he even got close: "Junior Brother Xu!"
Because he had detected him in advance, Xu Zhangqing had already put away the Companion Green Lotus; hearing this, he asked the other party: "Senior Brother, why have you come?"
Seeing his somewhat cold attitude, Zhang Su's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly said with an apologetic face: "What happened earlier was indeed Senior Brother's fault."
Xu Zhangqing waved his hand: "Senior Brother's good intentions, I naturally understand; I just don't hope there's a next time."
Zhang Su nodded vigorously: "Rest assured, there definitely won't be a next time."
A year ago, how could he have been so humble?
But times have changed.
The person before him was no longer the naive newcomer who had just joined the Spirit Field Core.
Now he not only had the three-spirit-root genius Li Lingbi as his backer,
but had even broken through to Foundation Establishment Stage, putting them at the same realm.
Xu Zhangqing's attitude softened slightly: "This matter ends here; you and Senior Sister Wu shouldn't take it to heart."
Zhang Su's face sank, and he said rather disdainfully: "Without me, how could Wu Xi'er be qualified to be your senior sister?"
"Ah?" Xu Zhangqing was stunned.
Zhang Su explained: "I don't know that Junior Alchemist named Zhao Yingli at all, and at the spirit field meeting, I had never seen this woman.
It was Wu Xi'er who, upon hearing she was to help you with a blind date, suddenly acted as a matchmaker."
Xu Zhangqing asked in confusion: "She... why would she do that?"
Zhang Su sneered: "Her family in the mortal world offended some big shot of the Great Yue Dynasty for certain reasons, and it just happened that the Zhao Family was looking for a wood spirit root son-in-law for their third daughter, so both sides hit it off, and that's what happened earlier."
Xu Zhangqing understood: "I see."
Zhang Su continued: "I've already kicked Wu Xi'er to the curb; someone who uses our senior-junior brotherhood like this doesn't deserve to stay by your side."
Xu Zhangqing was stunned, not knowing what to say.
Zhang Su showed a fawning smile: "The bond between you and me—how could a Dao Companion casually destroy it?"
Xu Zhangqing nodded slightly: "Senior Brother is right."
"Senior Brother Zhang!"
"Senior Brother Xu!"
"We're here!"
"Is the location confirmed?"
At this moment, Wu Guangman led the Earth Spirit Root Team running over.
Xu Zhangqing asked the doubt in his heart: "Senior Brother, what does this mean?"
Zhang Su took out a Second Grade Spirit Field deed: "Although this matter was Wu Xi'er's doing, Senior Brother is not free of responsibility either.
This one mu Second Grade Spirit Field can be considered compensation for Junior Brother!"
Xu Zhangqing shook his head: "This compensation is too great."
Zhang Su said seriously: "Junior Brother, with your talent in planting, you will surely rise at the Spirit Field Core sooner or later; what you lack now isn't the number of spirit fields?"
Xu Zhangqing furrowed his brow: "You don't need to do this!"
Zhang Su stuffed the deed into his hands: "Just consider it an investment in you; if you make it big in the future, don't forget Senior Brother!"
Feeling the weight of the deed in his hand, Xu Zhangqing looked deeply at the other party.
If he remembered correctly, his side gaining one mu Second Grade Spirit Field meant the other side would lose one mu Second Grade Spirit Field, and the spirit plants cultivated before would all be wasted.
That's no small loss!
Zhang Su felt quite relieved, then smiled: "Senior Brother, I won't keep you any longer; come visit my home when you have time."
He turned and left, driving his travel tool away at high speed.
Afraid Xu Zhangqing would regret it, he wanted to take back the field deed in his hand.
As long as he accepted this field deed, it meant what happened today was settled.
Speaking of which, before there was a cousin named Zhang Er who interfered.
Now his Dao Companion Wu Xi'er by his side had her own schemes.
Every time Zhang Su bled heavily, feeling terribly stifled in his heart.
Wu Guangman stepped forward, smiling and asking: "Senior Brother Xu, where is the Ling Field Third Mu arranged?"
Xu Zhangqing swept his gaze, then pointed beside the Ling Field Second Mu: "Right there."
"Alright, brothers, let's get to work!" Wu Guangman called out to the team.
Boom~
Boom boom~
The ground kept vibrating.
Weeds shattered on the spot one after another.
Stones turned into powder one after another.
Because it was now winter and the soil had frozen hard, the delay took quite a while.
And it couldn't be finished today; at least it would have to wait until tomorrow.
It was already afternoon, and it would get dark soon.
Wu Guangman and the others couldn't work all night.
……
……
Time came to the early morning several days later.
The Ling Field Third Mu Second Grade had long been finished, but planting had not yet begun.
The Lingti in the Ling Field Second Mu Second Grade, whether Ling rice or vegetables, had all matured.
But Xu Zhangqing did not rush out to harvest; instead he continued lying on the wooden board bed.
His left hand had a wine pouch, originally filled with one jin of Yellow Rice Wine, now all drunk.
Because he studied day and night, the fire attribute technique 【Nine Flames Mysterious Technique】 was finally mastered.
【Nine Flames Mysterious Technique Layer One】
Effect One: Can sense the position of open flames within three zhang.
Effect Two: Condense a fist-sized ball of fire.
Effect Three: Attacks add 10% fire damage.
Effect Four: Fire damage reduced by 15%.
Xu Zhangqing was surprised: "Layer One, and it's still a Fragmented Edition, yet the effects are already close to Layer Three of 【Intense Fire Cooking Oil Method】; indeed a High Rank Cultivation Method."
He spread his right hand, and the Fire Spirit Power in his Qi Sea was rapidly consumed.
At the same time, his palm turned red and hot, then with a "hiss," at a speed visible to the naked eye, a burning red fireball condensed into shape.
The size of an adult's fist, the high temperature it released instantly dispelled the chill in the room!
