Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

Time flew by, and autumn arrived.

The Thousand Sects Dharma Assembly neared its end, and the major immortal cultivation sects began forming teams.

However, Li Lingbi had long since taken Chu Qiu, the Foolish Prince, and the others to the Central Region ahead of time.

As for Xu Zhangqing, on the surface he was handling logistics, but in reality, from the moment he refused to join, the relationship between the two sides was no longer as before.

One could only say they were maintaining the last shred of face.

After all, everyone has times when they need each other; there was no need to turn hostile.

Currently, Xu Zhangqing was devoting more attention to cultivating spirit plants.

Moreover, ever since Zhu Fuxian returned, the pressure on the Spirit Nurturer had lessened.

He had more time to accompany Ruo Qunshuang and Xiao Linglong.

Incidentally, he also studied the Jade Dew Sect's cultivation methods and spells.

Occasionally he would still refine some spirit tools, spirit talismans, and spirit pills.

Although it wasn't as spectacular as the outside world, it was at least fulfilling.

And after another round of harvest, the thirty-odd mu of spirit fields inside his personal space, plus the six mu outside, brought his total lifespan to: years

However, Xu Zhangqing no longer cared about these things.

He cared more about the people by his side, wanting to live well each and every day.

Now, the second-grade spirit field before him, after plowing and fertilizing, could be planted again.

Xu Zhangqing waved his hand, and the seedlings of three mu of extreme-grade spirit rice, plus the seeds of three mu of other spirit plants and medicinal herbs, were scattered out.

On the surface, it looked a bit wasteful.

In reality, the instant they hit the ground, these seedlings and seeds automatically arranged themselves under his divine sense's control, maintaining perfect spacing between each other.

Pop pop pop!

Xiao Linglong clapped excitedly: "Daddy is so amazing!"

Ruo Qunshuang, holding her, praised: "Qing Ge's technique is becoming more and more proficient."

Xu Zhangqing turned back and smiled, then waved his hand again; the surrounding water spirit qi began to gather, and in no time a mass of dark clouds rapidly formed above the spirit field.

Accompanied by a low rumbling sound, dense spirit rain soon fell.

Feeling the gentle moisture of the spirit rain, Xiao Linglong grew even more excited: "Mother, I want to go play over there!"

Although Ruo Qunshuang doted on her immensely, she still shook her head: "Children cannot play in water."

Xiao Linglong said quite seriously: "This rain water is calling to me."

Hearing this, Ruo Qunshuang was startled and doubtful: "Really or fake?"

After raising her for this period of time, she had actually forgotten the other party was not an ordinary mortal.

Since she is the Mermaid Princess's child, she likely has a certain degree of control over water, and might even innately possess a water spirit root.

Thinking of this, she cast an inquiring look at Xu Zhangqing; after receiving his nod of permission, she put Xiao Linglong down on the ground.

The next second, this child was like an unbridled wild horse, immediately dashing toward the area covered by the spirit rain.

Whether it was Xu Zhangqing or Ruo Qunshuang, both were surprised to discover that her speed in places where water spirit qi was dense was actually getting faster and faster.

Not only was there not the slightest sluggishness, but she was instead "like a fish in water."

Xu Zhangqing saw it in his eyes and secretly thought: "I need to find a chance to test this child's spirit root attribute; there might be an unexpected discovery."

Previously, because she was born from inside an ice embryo, he naturally assumed she had an ice spirit root.

Only now did he discover he had still underestimated her.

Most likely, she possesses both ice and water spirit roots.

And previously she had not shown any talent in this aspect at all.

When Xu Zhangqing was in his personal space, he would occasionally cast the Great Cloud Rain Technique.

At that time, Xiao Linglong was only curious, not this excited.

As if she had suddenly awakened, or rather, her talent had awakened.

Xu Zhangqing estimated Xiao Linglong's time of birth and found it was just about six years old.

At this age, other children are still playing with mud.

Yet she has already begun awakening her talent.

Even bathing in the spirit rain, her clothes didn't get wet at all, far surpassing those water spirit root disciples who had bitterly cultivated for several years.

The gap was extremely obvious from the very beginning.

Ruo Qunshuang's eyes revealed a trace of envious admiration: "If I had Linglong's talent, I would absolutely become a core disciple."

Xu Zhangqing walked over to comfort her: "When Linglong rises up, never mind core disciple, you could even become a sect founder and ancestor."

Ruo Qunshuang rolled her eyes at him: "Who knows when that would be?"

Xu Zhangqing chuckled: "If worst comes to worst, we..."

But before he could finish speaking, a vibration came from the Fangcun Ring.

He took it out to look and discovered it was Eldest Senior Sister's communication talisman.

Ever since the Chi Huo Peak produced the Phoenix Fire, the two of them hadn't been in contact for a long time.

"Eldest Senior Sister?"

"Junior Brother, hurry to Qingmu Peak!"

"What's wrong?"

"I told you before, to soak in the Life Pool!"

"But I don't think I completed that mission."

"You... you're really driving me crazy!"

Bei Qingtang couldn't stand this Sixth Junior Brother anymore, and directly cut off the communication.

Xu Zhangqing was stunned: "Eldest Senior Sister's temper is a bit violent."

Ruo Qunshuang blinked her eyes: "I also think you've been a bit dragging lately."

Xu Zhangqing recovered and shook his head: "Can you call me dragging?"

Ruo Qunshuang asked doubtfully: "Then what is it called?"

Xu Zhangqing grinned: "It's called foreplay!"

Instantly, Ruo Qunshuang's whole face turned red.

It looked like a ripe peach.

Xu Zhangqing pinched her cheeks with his hand, then summoned Broken Moon Flowing Frost: "Alright, I'll make a trip to Qingmu Peak, you two mother and daughter play slowly."

Xiao Linglong waved in the Spirit Rain: "Goodbye, Father!"

Whoosh!

Broken Moon Flowing Frost rose from the ground and flew toward the Nine Heavens at extreme speed.

After a while, Xu Zhangqing successfully arrived at Qingmu Peak.

Compared to other Xianfeng, this place was still the same, with not much change.

Soon, he came to Qiongxin Domain and saw Eldest Senior Sister.

But besides her, there was also Second Senior Brother Zhou Yan, and "fiancée" Su Tiantian.

That this person was here made Xu Zhangqing very surprised: "Eldest Senior Sister, what is this?"

Bei Qingtang gave him a look: "Before going to the Life Pool, Second Junior Brother has something to say to you."

Xu Zhangqing was stunned: "What words?"

Zhou Yan pulled Su Tiantian forward a step and said in a deep voice: "Junior Brother, I already know about the matter between you and Tiantian."

Xu Zhangqing stepped back: "Second Senior Brother, I have no relationship with her at all."

Good fellow, I just haven't come to Qingmu Peak for a while, and now some bad rumors are spreading again, these fellows never end, right.

Zhou Yan quickly waved his hands: "Don't worry, Senior Brother doesn't mean to blame you."

Xu Zhangqing furrowed his brow: "Let's just make things clear."

Zhou Yan nodded happily: "Yes, just make things clear."

Xu Zhangqing spoke first: "It's like this..."

Then he described the situation at that time once.

From Su Tiantian coming to the Spirit Field to find someone, then Yao Xianzi hoping I would marry into her family, and so on.

Actually the whole thing was strange: a Core Disciple who rarely came to Qingmu Peak was suddenly taken a liking to by Yao Xianzi, and even hoped to marry into her on the spot, which was a bit outrageous.

Zhou Yan wasn't stupid either; after listening, he nodded slightly: "Junior Brother, thank you for not marrying into her family."

Since that's the case, I'm willing to give you this year's Life Pool time!"
