Chapter 306: Selfishness

When Feng Qingya said this, she couldn’t help but blink at Su Jingzhen.She seemed to be trying her best to show her carefree attitude.

Su Jingzhen was taken aback.

But then, he smiled slightly: “In that case, I am very honored.”

His response left Feng Qingya stunned as well.

She had expected Su Jingzhen to find an excuse to change the subject.

But instead, he surprisingly went along with it.

This made Feng Qingya even more curious about Su Jingzhen.

She had already known that Su Jingzhen, although a novice in cultivation, had many strong aspects within him.

At least in their previous encounters, she had tried to subtly control Su Jingzhen, but ultimately ended up being led by the nose by him.

Working with Su Jingzhen would also make her unconsciously fall into his rhythm.

As Feng Qingya’s thoughts were in disarray…

Su Jingzhen’s eyes suddenly saw a line of golden text appear again.

【Emotional Connection+6】

【Remaining usable points: 119】

This emotional connection point increase also left Su Jingzhen bewildered.

He had previously thought that Feng Qingya’s words were just a joke to tease him.

But now, it seemed that her words were not just casual.

Was this woman serious?

As the saying goes, a woman’s heart is like a needle at the bottom of the ocean.

Su Jingzhen couldn’t understand women’s hearts, and he usually judged their true intentions through emotional connection points.

Although he was surprised, he didn’t say anything more.

He walked over and sat down opposite Feng Qingya.

After the Alchemy Master Conference, his relationship with Feng Qingya had indeed become much closer.

At the very least, they were now good friends.

With Feng Qingya, he didn’t need to be too cautious.

He changed the subject: “Actually, I came to the Treasure Gathering Pavilion this time to take care of some business.

I just didn’t expect Miss Feng to have returned to Linjiang City, which is good news for me.”

In Su Jingzhen’s view, the reason why Feng Qingya had returned to Linjiang City was no longer important.

What mattered was that Feng Qingya was back in Linjiang City, taking charge of the Linjiang Branch, which was now a fact.

This made things much simpler for him.

Feng Qingya’s eyes also showed a hint of curiosity upon hearing his words.

“This time, Master Su’s reputation has spread far and wide, and upon returning to the Evil Moon Sect, your position must be unmatched.

I wonder if there’s anything else that Treasure Gathering Pavilion can help with?”

Feng Qingya’s face still wore that enchanting smile.

Without waiting for Su Jingzhen’s response, she continued: “However, no matter what Master Su requires or wants to do, as long as it’s within our relationship and considering Master Su’s kindness towards me, I, Qingya, will definitely help Master Su accomplish it, no matter the cost.”

She directly expressed her attitude.

But as soon as she spoke, her smile suddenly turned somewhat resentful.

“After all, a few days ago, the seniors from the Evil Moon Sect came to take Master Su away.

Master Su left without giving me any hints, which left me feeling hurt for a while.”

As Feng Qingya spoke, Su Jingzhen’s face revealed a hint of embarrassment.

He had indeed wanted to mention this matter.

However, Shen Yifeng’s speed was too fast at the time.

Moreover, Shen Yifeng’s actions of taking Xuening away would naturally incur the dissatisfaction of various factions.

It might even make the Evil Moon Sect a target of criticism.

After all, everyone was competing for Xuening using legitimate means, and the Evil Moon Sect had simply overturned the table, which was unacceptable.

“It happened suddenly, and I truly didn’t have a chance to give you a heads up, Miss Feng.

I apologize for the shock it caused you.”

Su Jingzhen’s tone was quite sincere as he spoke.

He then continued: “But that matter is already in the past.

As for our agreement, I have fulfilled it perfectly.

Let’s not dwell on the past. This time, I want to ask Miss Feng: is there a way to awaken one’s spiritual roots without going through the Spirit Awakening Tower?

Or are there other methods to detect whether someone has spiritual roots?”

His main purpose this time was for Yan Xia’s sake.

He was still concerned about the matter of special constitutions.

Upon hearing this, Feng Qingya’s eyes showed a hint of doubt.

But she still said: “There is indeed a method. Many things exist with their own principles, and in the entire cultivation world, it’s widely recognized that the Spirit Awakening Tower is the most effective and accurate way to detect and unlock spiritual roots.

The Spirit Awakening Tower in the Evil Moon Sect was destroyed by Senior Jiuchi last time.

But if Master Su really needs it, with your identity, it wouldn’t be difficult to have them rebuild one, right? Seaʀᴄh the Novelƒire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Moreover, I think that since the Evil Moon Sect has established a branch here, the Spirit Awakening Tower should be a standard facility.

It’s likely already in their plans.

Unless Master Su has a special reason?”

With Feng Qingya’s intelligence, she naturally thought of the key point easily.

However, Su Jingzhen didn’t plan to reveal the truth to Feng Qingya.

Previously, he had asked Luo Yuebai about Yan Xia’s special physique, but Luo Yuebai herself and Shen Yifeng had investigated and concluded that Yan Xia was just an ordinary person who couldn’t unlock her spiritual roots, and didn’t possess any special characteristics.

So Luo Yuebai didn’t take Yan Xia seriously.

But this time, when Yan Xia came to find Su Jingzhen, he had a faint feeling that this was real.

If Yan Xia could really awaken her spiritual roots and was indeed a special physique, the significance would be too great.

With his current alchemy and body cultivation skills, Su Jingzhen would have immense influence in the Evil Moon Sect’s Linjiang branch.

Even when the Spiritual Medicine Sect moved to Linjiang City, Su Jingzhen would likely have a significant position within the entire Evil Moon Sect.

But even so, he still couldn’t guarantee control over a special physique.

Anyone has personal motives, and Su Jingzhen was no exception.

In this treacherous cultivation world, if he could control some absolute loyal subordinates, he would have more confidence wherever he went.

And if Yan Xia was indeed a special physique, she currently had nothing and had already taken Su Jingzhen as her only hope and reliance.

Su Jingzhen could perfectly control her.

Even if Yan Xia ultimately turned out to be an ordinary person, Su Jingzhen wouldn’t feel regretful.

On the contrary, if he missed the opportunity to control a special physique due to inaction, that would be a lifelong regret.

In the cultivation world, there were too many cultivators who struggled for a lifetime over a mere rumor.

And he only needed to pay a small price to possibly obtain a powerful subordinate or even a loyal death warrior, so why not?

At this time, looking at Feng Qingya’s curious gaze, Su Jingzhen smiled: “Miss Feng, perhaps you can tell me the specific operation method.

This can still be considered a transaction; I’ll pay whatever price, spirit stones or pills, without hesitation.”

As he said this, Su Jingzhen smiled, but Feng Qingya detected his seriousness.

She couldn’t help but put down the crystal cup in her hand and lightly tapped the table in front of her, as if thinking about something.

Meanwhile, Luo Yuebai, who had slightly altered her appearance, had already arrived at the Treasure Gathering Pavilion entrance.

“Since I happened to be here, I might as well take a look…”
