Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

Xu Zhangqing showed an awkward expression: "But I already have a Dao Companion."

Bai Xiaotian let out a "huh," appearing very surprised and shocked.

"Which Formal Disciple of the Water Pavilion is it?"

"Not a Water Spiritual Root."

"Both Spirit Farmers?"

"Not a Wood Spiritual Root either!"

"What kind of Spiritual Root is it after all?"

"Fire... Spiritual Root!"

Hearing this, Bai Xiaotian's expression turned strange as he retorted: "You're the one who's her Dao Companion, right!"

Xu Zhangqing's mouth corner twitched: "Old Bai, your words are a bit hurtful."

Bai Xiaotian mocked: "Others look for Wood Spiritual Roots to find Water Spiritual Roots, or find the same Spiritual Root, but you actually found a Fire Spiritual Root—if that's not someone's Dao Companion, what is it?"

Xu Zhangqing stubbornly had no way to refute, waving his hand: "None of that matters, I'm not the kind of person who's fickle, right now I can't even handle one..."

After sharing a bed and pillow for this period of time, he had already discovered.

Senior Sister Yu appeared cold on the outside, but her heart was fiery on the inside.

Precisely because of this, her mutated Ice-Water Spiritual Root changed every day.

Fortunately, Bai Xiaotian did not insist, even expressing understanding: "Fine, you're a sensible kid, since that's the case, I'll raise Ling'er a bit more."

Xu Zhangqing hurriedly asked: "Then what about the cooperation?"

Bai Xiaotian furrowed his brow, and after a long silence he opened his mouth: "Are you sure the news is correct?"

Xu Zhangqing nodded hard: "One hundred percent sure."

Bai Xiaotian pondered: "Fine, I can draw Yang-attribute Spirit Talismans, but you must provide the materials, and the profit split afterward will be fifty-fifty between us."

Xu Zhangqing immediately shook his head: "Old Bai, fifty-fifty probably won't work."

Bai Xiaotian raised his eyebrows: "What ratio do you want?"

Xu Zhangqing blurted out: "For Ling'er's sake, I take eight, you take two."

Hearing this, Bai Xiaotian's expression darkened, very dissatisfied: "Too low."

Xu Zhangqing continued: "Or, I take seven, you take two, Ling'er takes one."

Bai Xiaotian pondered for a moment, asking: "Is there really no room for negotiation?"

Xu Zhangqing naturally expressed: "The news is mine, and I still have to provide the materials, so why not find a more obedient Talisman Master with a lower profit split?"

This sentence directly left Bai Xiaotian speechless.

No matter how he thought about it, there was no angle to refute.

Indeed, he was a Senior Talisman Master, and in making Spirit Talismans, talismans, and Spiritual Runes he indeed had greater talent and advantage.

But what the person before him said also made some sense.

The other party was choosing to cooperate with him first because of Ling'er's face.

If they couldn't reach an agreement here, he could go out and find another, or even several.

Even if they weren't Senior Talisman Masters, all being Junior Talisman Masters, quantity could defeat quality.

Of course, Bai Xiaotian didn't know that Xu Zhangqing could already engrave Spiritual Runes.

This meant he could also draw Spirit Talismans in the future.

Therefore, Bai Xiaotian thought it over and over, finally agreeing to the second profit split ratio.

Xu Zhangqing seven, himself two, Bai Ling'er one.

Even if he lost a bit, at least let his youngest daughter earn some, so she could buy more snacks to eat in the future.

Seeing the other party agree, Xu Zhangqing asked with a smiling face: "Old Bai, I heard straw is also one of the raw materials for drawing talismans?"

Bai Xiaotian nodded slightly: "Not bad, it can indeed be used to draw talismans, and the higher the quality of the Spirit Rice, the better the effect of the Spirit Talisman."

Xu Zhangqing thought to himself: "I have nothing but Extreme-grade Spirit Rice and Mutant Spirit Rice here."

That is to say, in drawing Spirit Talismans, apart from costs, it basically costs nothing.

He thought the Spirit Rice from two mu of land would be enough for Bai Xiaotian to use for drawing talismans.

Immediately after, the two began discussing the details.

Afterward, they even signed a Spirit Talisman Contract.

The content was that during the cooperation stage, one party provides raw materials, and the other seriously draws talismans.

If either party failed to complete the agreement, the cooperation would immediately terminate, and the breaching party would also have to heavily compensate.

After they finished talking, the door of the small room opened.

Xu Zhangqing and Bai Xiaotian walked out unharmed.

Unexpectedly, after coming out there were actually three people.

Not only Bai Ling'er and Chu Qiu.

There was also someone unexpected to everyone.

Who?

Blue Sky!

Once infinitely glorious, a genius hailed as the number one Formal Disciple of the Water Control Pavilion.

Now he no longer had his former bearing, appearing extremely sensitive.

Even the slightest movement would provoke a strong reaction from him.

Chu Qiu and Lan Tian had both fought Mo Sha.

Among them, Lan Tian was thoroughly beaten, even developing a psychological shadow.

Although Chu Qiu won, he also suffered heavy injuries and almost could not participate in this Formal Disciple Competition.

After learning that Chu Qiu had arrived at the Water Control Pavilion, Lan Tian immediately came to check the situation.

Upon seeing half of the other person's face disfigured, he was also greatly shocked.

At the same time, his fear of Mo Sha in his heart had reached the extreme.

Lan Tian's voice trembled: "Even you are like this?"

Chu Qiu said expressionlessly: "With your mindset, you'd better not participate in the Formal Disciple Competition."

Lan Tian was stunned: "You... I... sigh..."

At this time, Xu Zhangqing called out: "Chu Shixiong, let's go back!"

Before leaving, Chu Qiu thought for a moment and said: "Lan Tian, you are at least the number one Formal Disciple of the Water Control Pavilion; if you cannot play the role of a role model, then other Water Spiritual Roots might as well be wasted."

Upon hearing these words, Lan Tian's pupils contracted, and his whole person was as if struck by lightning.

Afterwards, Xu Zhangqing and Chu Qiu bid farewell to Bai Xiaotian and Bai Ling'er.

Soon they left the Water Control Pavilion.

On the road, Xu Zhangqing couldn't help but ask: "Chu Shixiong, what exactly is Mo Sha's fighting style, that he actually scared Lan Tian into this state?"

Chu Qiu recalled the scene of the previous battle: "He is just a madman; his fighting style is extremely crazy, using all sorts of sinister moves, dirty moves, and ruthless moves, not regarding me or any opponent as human at all, feeling more like..."

Xu Zhangqing pursued: "More like what?"

Chu Qiu took a deep breath: "More like wild beasts or demons."

Xu Zhangqing thoughtfully said: "I heard the Northern Domain is located in the Desert, with an extremely harsh environment."

Chu Qiu nodded: "The people of the Northern Domain, because of their survival environment, are mostly obsessive and extreme; they are good at seizing any opportunity."

The two chatted as they walked, finally returning to the Spirit Field.

Because they had to wait for Ice Heart Jade Pot Wine, although Chu Qiu was bored, he did not leave.

And Xu Zhangqing took advantage of the early sky, using the Wood Spiritual Energy attracted by the Lingti, to continue cultivating.

The Lingti in the full four mu Spirit Field, as if pulled, all swayed slightly toward the position where he was.

Strands of Wood Spiritual Energy quickly swarmed over.

Xu Zhangqing took a mouthful of top-grade Yellow Rice Wine, a mouthful of top-grade Foundation Spirit Pill.

Absorption speed and efficiency reached the extreme at this moment.

The Qi Sea along with his whole person all transformed into a vortex devouring Spiritual Energy.

Chu Qiu saw it in his eyes, and felt a chill: "This Junior Brother Xu, although he doesn't like fighting and killing, is incomparably smooth in cultivation; could this be related to unobstructed thoughts?"
