After returning to Shangjingtian on the airship, Zhang Yuan had nothing to do anymore.

His life returned to normal, a repetitive cycle of going to and from work.

It was not until three days later that Zhang Yuan received the letter from Su Jingyao.

The two reunited in the teahouse in Linxianzhuang.

Although only a few days had passed, when Zhang Yuan saw Su Jingyao again, he felt that this young nun from Mingxiu Peak had matured a lot – her temperament had changed.

He smiled and poured a cup of hot tea for the other person, and asked, “Are the results of the competition out?”

“Ah.”

Su Jingyao smiled slightly, and two shallow dimples appeared on her cheeks: “I got third place in this competition.”

“Congratulations!”

Zhang Yuan sincerely congratulated her: “You got what you wanted!”

At first, Su Jingyao’s goal was just to be in the top ten, and she hoped that Zhang Yuan could help her get into the top five.

And now the third place result has completely exceeded expectations.

It is naturally cause for celebration.

In fact, Zhang Yuan still felt a little regretful.

Previously when we were in the Qingxuan Secret Realm, if we had taken some risks, we could have expanded the scope of the search.

Maybe there is a chance to get second place or even the first place!
Of course, this thought only flashed through his mind.

Don’t be greedy!
“Thank you.”

Su Jingyao said seriously: “Zhang Yuan, without your help, I would never have achieved such outstanding results, defeated Yuan Zishan, and fulfilled my wish.”

Zhang Yuan finally understood why Su Jingyao’s temperament changed in just three days.

Su Jingyao’s biggest wish is to surpass Yuan Zishan.

It can even be said to be a demon in the heart.

Now that her inner demons have been removed, she has truly grown up and matured.

All the anger in my heart dissipated.

Otherwise, Su Jingyao would not call Yuan Zishan by her name, but would call her “bitch”.

Cultivators cultivate their spirits and minds. Su Jingyao has always had a strong talent. After this experience, her future is limitless!

Yuan Zishan was like a whetstone for Su Jingyao.

“I dare not take credit for what I have done.”

Zhang Yuan shook his head: “Your own efforts are also very important!”

“Ah.”

Su Jingyao nodded slightly.

The bright and beautiful girl pursed her lips, then took out a white jade medicine box and handed it to Zhang Yuan: “Zhang Yuan, this is my gift to you, don’t refuse it.”

Zhang Yuan smiled and said, “I never refuse gifts from others.”

He took the medicine box and opened the lid curiously.

Zhang Yuan was very familiar with the items inside – Qilin Grass!

The Qilin grass must be at least several hundred years old!

Su Jingyao explained: “This 530-year-old Qilin grass was exchanged from the Dao Treasury by me using the Dao power I was rewarded with. It is perfect for you to cultivate the Liuhe Qilin Body.”

Five hundred and thirty years old Qilin grass!
Zhang Yuan was speechless for a moment.

He knew very well how valuable a 500-year-old Qilin grass was!

You should know that before in the Qingxuan Secret Realm, Su Jingyao gave the Thousand Silk Net to Zhang Yuan.

The two agreed to use this as a reward and not to pay any additional Taoist merits to Zhang Yuan.

As a result, Su Jingyao now gave Zhang Yuan a generous thank-you gift that he could hardly refuse!

Zhang Yuan is not a greedy person: “Senior sister, this gift is too expensive.”

“Call me Jingyao.”

Su Jingyao’s cheeks flushed slightly, and she said softly: “This is nothing. In fact, there is still a thousand-year-old Qilin grass in the Taoist library. Unfortunately, the Taoist power required is too much.”

Thousand-year-old Qilin grass!
Zhang Yuan almost broke down on the spot. Shang Jingtian’s Daoku was divided into inner and outer warehouses.

Foreign warriors like him can only exchange resources from the external treasury through the Merit Hall.

Neiku doesn’t even have the qualifications to look at it.

It is said that there are more advanced secret vaults that can only be used by elders and higher-level figures.

Zhang Yuan knew that the natural treasures in the inner storehouse must be superior to those in the outer storehouse.

But I didn’t expect that there was a thousand-year-old Qilin grass!

If he could obtain this thousand-year-old Qilin grass, Zhang Yuan would be 100% sure that he could cultivate the Liuhe Qilin body to the highest level.

The importance he attached to this body-refining technique was no less than that of his main practice, the Hunyuan Tiangang Method!
pity……

I don’t have any Taoist skills and I’m not qualified!
“With this Qilin grass, I am already satisfied.”

Zhang Yuan weighed the jade box in his hand and said with a wry smile, “I dare not expect too much.”

He didn’t even ask Su Jingyao how much Taoist power was needed to exchange for the thousand-year-old Qilin grass.

So as not to disturb your mind!

Su Jingyao raised her head and stared at Zhang Yuan, and suddenly said, “Zhang Yuan, I’m leaving.”

Zhang Yuan was stunned for a moment: “Where are we going?”

“Langyatian.”

Langya Heaven, like Shangjing Heaven, is one of the four great ancestral temples of Taoism.

But unlike Shang Jingtian, Langyatian is not only the ancestral temple, but also the ancestral land of Taoism.

The Taoist ancestor of the past ascended to heaven in Langya Heaven!
Therefore, among the four ancestral temples, Langya Heaven has an extremely transcendent status, surpassing the other “three great heavens”.

Su Jingyao was qualified to go to Langya Heaven to practice because she won the top three places in this year’s Nine Peaks Competition.

You should know that the cultivation environment in Langya Heaven is stronger than that in Shangjing Heaven. Most of the Taoist masters in the world either come from Langya Heaven or have practiced in Langya Heaven. It can be said to be a true Taoist paradise.

It is not easy for Su Jingyao to get such an opportunity!
She also wanted to leave Shang Jingtian for a few years to lay the foundation for her future breakthrough into the Heavenly Master realm!

This is related to Su Jingyao’s life experience and the grudge between her and Yuan Zishan.

Su Jingyao’s mother died of illness many years ago, and later her father found a new Taoist partner.

This is nothing, it’s a very normal thing.

But the identity of this new Taoist companion is a bit special.

The other person is Su Jingyao’s aunt, and is a sister of her mother.

The husband of Su Jingyao’s aunt was a sworn brother of Su Jingyao’s father, and their daughter was Yuan Zishan.

Yuan Zishan is Su Jingyao’s cousin.

Yuan Zishan is only one year older than Su Jingyao, and the two had a pretty good relationship when they were young.

However, Su Jingyao’s father and Yuan Zishan’s mother became a couple, which Su Jingyao, who had just grown up, could not accept, and because of this, he and Yuan Zishan became sworn enemies.

The resentment in my heart accumulated over time and turned into a demon in my heart!
Now Su Jingyao has gotten rid of her inner demons. Although she still harbors resentment towards her father, she is no longer resentful.

She was also tired of life in Shang Jingtian and wanted to stay away from the other family of three.

Zhang Yuan listened quietly to this rather melodramatic story.

I finally understand Su Jingyao’s distress.

After confiding in Zhang Yuan, Su Jingyao was obviously much more relaxed and exuded the spirit of a young girl.

“Zhang Yuan…”

This was the last thing Su Jingyao said to Zhang Yuan: “Come to Langyatian to find me if you have a chance!”

Although I have long been accustomed to separation.

But Su Jingyao’s departure still made him feel a little sad.

Zhang Yuan could feel Su Jingyao’s affection for him.

But she still suppressed this feeling.

The road ahead is long, and the love between men and women is like the reflection of the moon in the mirror! (End of this chapter)
