Why could a shriveled gourd seed detach from the wooden box and fly autonomously onto the Jintong wood’s roots?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is a sealed seed of the Heaven-Piercing Sword Gourd. It developed sentience long ago, but prolonged sealing damaged its spirit.” The Jintong wood transmitted new information to Su Jin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Can it still grow?” Su Jin was stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes. Leave it with me for a while to nurture.” The Jintong wood replied, then immediately absorbed the gourd seed into its body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had no idea where it was being nurtured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jin realized Jintong could handle any task—even nurturing gourd seeds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How long will it need to be nurtured?” Su Jin asked again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m not sure yet. If you give it one drop of the Earthheart Primordial Milk you’ve left with me, it will accelerate its recovery.” The Jintong wood replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jin immediately hesitated—should she give it or not?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You said this Heaven-Piercing Sword Gourd developed sentience—does that mean it will become an Ancient Witch Spirit when it grows?” Su Jin asked again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Once its sentience recovers and it breaks free of its shell, it becomes a symbiotic Witch Spirit—just like Xuechi Luo.” The Jintong wood said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So it’s an Ancient Witch Spirit!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jin’s lips curled slightly—she hadn’t even begun cultivating when she accidentally hatched two Ancient Witch Spirits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She thought to herself: next time she saw any strange seed, she’d pick it up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then give it one more drop of the Earthheart Primordial Milk.” Su Jin reasoned—one Ancient Witch Spirit was worth one drop of Earthheart Primordial Milk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright. You have five drops left.” The Jintong wood said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Does the Earthheart Primordial Milk help you? Do you need a drop, Jintong?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No use. No need.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then if you need anything, remind me,” Su Jin muttered, twitching her lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jin finally took the remaining gourd seeds back to sleep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next morning, shortly after she entered the classroom, Su Jiuniang arrived with Qi Yi, whose eyes were swollen like peaches.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bringing Qi Yi like this meant Qi Yi was staying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Shi clearly thought the same—her expression was grim.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yesterday, forbidden medicine was found in Qi Yi’s small cabinet, humiliating her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So she likely had no intention of letting Qi Yi remain in her class.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But who could refuse a vice-principal?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jin and the others watched as Su Jiuniang called Liu Shi away; soon after, Liu Shi returned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She took Qi Yi’s small hand and announced to the students: “Qi Yi will remain in our class to continue studying, but she will no longer be eligible for recommendation as an outer disciple of the sect. Her annual examination scores will not be included in our class’s ranking.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Cheng glanced at Su Wuji in shock—Su Wuji had predicted this so accurately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Wuji gave him a smug look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The look said: “See? I was right.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Yi returned to her seat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since Liu Shi’s announcement, the students who had broken through to Qi Refining Level One before her seemed to have less hostility toward her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jiuniang watched until Qi Yi was seated, then left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Shi taught the students another lesson in basic knowledge; after an hour, she departed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Yi immediately slumped over her desk, sobbing pitifully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All the students in the classroom turned to look at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why is she crying? Still upset about losing her outer disciple recommendation?” Su Yunhu frowned, speaking oddly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who knows?” Su Cheng added.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Enough idle talk. Su Yunhu, when are you breaking through to Qi Refining Level Two? Hurry up—playing with a bunch of Level One cultivators, are you satisfied?” Su Wuji sneered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother, you’re at it again,” Su Yunhu snapped, no longer paying attention to Qi Yi. “Do you think I don’t want to break through? It’s because my talent is far worse than yours, so I progress slower.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are you really progressing slowly—or are you deliberately holding back? Who knows?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you keep delaying, others will overtake you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who knows? One day, Qi Yi might step over your shoulders and break through to Qi Refining Level Two first. Then maybe she’ll get her outer disciple recommendation back.” Su Wuji mused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Yunhu’s face turned black at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not just him—even Su Linyuan and Yang Guan, who overheard, changed expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if Qi Yi couldn’t step over Su Yunhu, she could step over them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No—must cultivate seriously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Come on, let’s go,” Su Linyuan called to Yang Guan. No time for leisure—time to cultivate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the two of them leading, other students in the classroom also left to cultivate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jin and the others went to the Third Classroom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That left only Qi Yi, awkwardly crying alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the students who originally cultivated in the First Classroom activated their Spirit Gathering Arrays and went to train.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could Qi Yi endure such neglect?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In her past life, at this age, she hadn’t attended the clan school.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though she struggled at first due to scarce resources, her two elder brothers protected her, and those around her constantly encouraged her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Good relationships had always been her trademark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, in the clan school, her own classmates saw her crying bitterly—and not one came to comfort her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could their hearts be so hard?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She couldn’t hold back—when everyone went to heat their meals at noon, she blocked Su Jin again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jin sighed at the sky, wondering what connection she had with Qi Yi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why did this girl always block her and no one else?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What do you want?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I don’t understand—I was framed. Why won’t the clan school clear my name?” Qi Yi snapped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you have proof that you’re innocent?” Su Jin countered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Yi fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you find proof proving your innocence, whatever losses you suffered due to the false accusation, the clan school will compensate you—equally or more. Even compensating you with a Foundation Establishment Pill is possible!” Su Jin said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The clan school will compensate me?” Qi Yi was stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why not? If you’re innocent, how could the clan school not compensate you? The key is—you must present evidence proving your innocence.”\u003C\u002Fp>",1103,"2026-06-20T13:23:54.434Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","cfc8eb9ccf4eb1cec84903f7ca42e6e677b7d6a9e542bb74125bf4149cc081bf","starting-immortal-cultivation-from-the-clan-scho-chapter-53","starting-immortal-cultivation-from-the-clan-scho-chapter-51",156,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstarting-immortal-cultivation-from-the-clan-scho-cover.jpg"]
