Seeing Su Jingzhen’s expression, Xuening and Qiu Yaoyao were once again taken aback.

Su Jingzhen didn’t want to worry the two women any more.

He suddenly perked up, his aura was no longer so weak, although it would still take some time to fully recover.

With a smile, he said directly, “From the beginning, my goal was never to become famous in the Luo River region.

Killing the Mu Family members earlier was just a matter of circumstance, not my intention.

If Yan Xia tramples on me, people will remember the glory of her Water Spirit Saint Body and gradually forget about me.

Isn’t it better for me to cultivate quietly like this?

And if I lose to a Water Spirit Saint Body, it won’t be too shameful, right?”

Upon hearing Su Jingzhen’s words, the two women were once again stunned.

Xuening hesitantly asked, “So, Brother Su, you deliberately lost to her?”

As she said this, a glimmer of light flashed in Xuening’s eyes.

Su Jingzhen nodded, “You can understand it like that.”

He didn’t want to explain too much about his relationship with Yan Xia.

Although Xuening had vaguely known in Qingzhou that Yan Xia and Su Jingzhen had a special relationship, she hadn’t thought about it deeply.

Now that Yan Xia’s status had changed dramatically, she couldn’t imagine that Yan Xia and Su Jingzhen were still connected.

【Emotional Connection +12】

【Remaining Points: 3842】

【Emotional Connection +14】

【Remaining Points: 3856】

At this moment, a line of golden text appeared in front of Su Jingzhen.

The two women each added one more point.

Obviously, their emotions had changed slightly.

Qiu Yaoyao spoke again, “As long as you’re okay.

But whether you lost to her on purpose or not, with her potential as a Water Spirit Saint Body, this stage is when she’s rapidly improving.

Her cultivation will change every day, and her progress will accelerate. Those with special physiques are guaranteed to reach the Celestial Being realm.

If you remain a Silver Dragon Bloodline and don’t advance, the gap between you will only grow wider.”

As she said this, Qiu Yaoyao’s tone was quite serious, with no intention of discouraging him.

Upon hearing this, Su Jingzhen was taken aback.

His expression also became slightly serious.

“I have my own plans for this. We’ve just received the First Sequence and haven’t started to use the Heavenly Dragon Race’s resources yet.

Maybe I’ll go into seclusion after this.

And if I can contract some more beasts, my dragon bloodline might develop.”

Su Jingzhen said this jokingly, but he really hoped so.

After all, his Silver Dragon bloodline was only the result of a few drops of North Sea Dragon blood.

Within the Heavenly Dragon Race territory, there must be more pure and suitable body-refining treasures than North Sea Dragon blood.

Even more North Sea Dragon Blood could help him break through his current Silver Dragon bloodline.

Upon hearing his words, Qiu Yaoyao nodded seriously.

With the background of the Heavenly Dragon Race, as an old First Sequence member, she was well aware of what Su Jingzhen could achieve if he accepted the blessings prepared for him.

He would undoubtedly experience a significant increase in strength.

He wouldn’t be too far behind Yan Xia’s Water Spirit Saint Body.

“Let’s go back then. But are you really okay with the injury on your chest?”

“This kind of injury is almost like a tickle for a body cultivator.

Even if I do nothing, it will heal by tomorrow at the latest.”

As Su Jingzhen and the others headed towards the Heavenly Green Lake at the edge of the central square of Heavenly Dragon City, Little Ling’s face was full of disappointment.

“Grandpa, Brother Su and Sister Yaoyao have already left. Why didn’t you let me see them?”

Little Ling looked at Dantai Mingjing, who had only one arm and one leg, with confusion and a hint of resentment.

Dantai Mingjing patted her head affectionately, “It’s not the right time yet.

Come on, girl, you have your own opportunities to seize.

I promise that when we leave the Luo River Region, I’ll let you see them.

Isn’t that our agreement with them?”

With that, Dantai Mingjing led Little Ling away.

Throughout the whole time, it seemed that no one noticed this strange pair who had arrived discreetly and left silently.

After they left, almost everyone in the central square had dispersed.

At this moment, the hottest spot in Heavenly Dragon City was where the Pavilion master Taixu had broken through to the Ascending Realm.

Even there, the breakthroughs were still happening in waves.

The first batch of people who gained insight had already made breakthroughs.

Some advanced in small realms, some in large realms.

Everyone had their own blessing.

And this situation would only intensify with time.

It was already a foregone conclusion that Heavenly Dragon City would become a holy place in the Luo River region.

While Heavenly Dragon City continued to be in turmoil, Su Jingzhen and Xuening were led back to Heavenly Green Lake by Qiu Yaoyao.

“Today, you have fought several battles and are still injured. Rest well.

Tomorrow morning, I’ll take you to find your blessing.”

After returning to their residence, Qiu Yaoyao gave them instructions and left directly.

“Brother Su, are you alright?”

Su Jingzhen and Xuening were standing at the entrance of Xuening’s courtyard. She was about to enter, but turned back to look at the injury on Su Jingzhen’s chest.

Seeing Xuening’s concern, Su Jingzhen’s eyes revealed a mischievous smile, “It’s not too bad.

But if you want to keep me company tonight, I won’t mind.”

Their emotional connection had already reached ‘mutual affection’.

Su Jingzhen knew that Xuening wouldn’t refuse as long as he wanted, just like Luo Yuebai and Feng Qingya.

Although Xuening was immersed in her alchemy, she was still aware of such things.

Her face suddenly turned red.

“Let’s… let’s wait until your injury heals… Um… Brother Su, get some rest.”

Her voice stuttered slightly.

Before Su Jingzhen could answer, Xuening rushed back to her room.

Only then did she realize that the redness on her face had spread to her ears.

Su Jingzhen’s words were enough to keep her up all night.

Seeing Xuening’s reaction, Su Jingzhen’s lips curled into a smile.

Actually, Xuening wasn’t as open as Luo Yuebai and Feng Qingya in some aspects.

But he was in no hurry.

With their emotional connection at the level of mutual affection, this step would naturally happen sooner or later.

Thinking this, Su Jingzhen returned to his own courtyard.

Without any distractions, he began to circulate the Creation Heaven Scripture. The blood energy in his nine human secret repositories surged, and the gruesome wounds on his chest began to heal slowly but effectively.

The next morning, Su Jingzhen awoke from his cultivation state.

After a night of healing, the wounds on his chest were completely gone.

Feeling refreshed, he couldn’t help but stretch out.

A line of golden text appeared in front of him.

【Daily Fixed Points: Shuang Jiang: 15, Zhang Xiu: 4, Feng Qingya: 18, Luo Yuebai: 18, Dantai Xuening: 12, Qiu Yaoyao: 14】

【Remaining Points: 3937】

“Just a little short of 4,000 points. This is an unprecedented high. What a wonderful day.”

Seeing his remaining points, Su Jingzhen’s lips curled into another smile.

Somehow, watching his points increase had become one of his new pleasures.

“I wonder what kind of blessing Sister Yaoyao will take me to seek.

There are many wondrous places in the Heavenly Dragon Race…

By the way, Suzhen, you mentioned earlier that we have important business to attend to in the Heavenly Dragon Race territory. Is there an opportunity now?

Or can you give me a hint? I might be able to get Qiu Yaoyao to take me there, and we can take care of our business on the way.”

Thinking about it, Su Jingzhen’s tone became quite excited.

He spoke to Bai Suzhen who was wrapped around his right arm.

At this moment, a flash of white light appeared, and Bai Suzhen’s white snake form materialized in front of him.

“I only know that the item I need is within the Heavenly Dragon Race’s core territory.

However, I haven’t pinpointed its exact location yet. My current strength isn’t enough to act without restraint in the Heavenly Dragon Race’s territory.

Let’s wait a little longer.”

As she said this, Bai Suzhen’s voice remained calm.

Her sapphire eyes showed a hint of anticipation.

Then her gaze shifted to the pouch hanging from Su Jingzhen’s waist.

“Open the new ‘Boundless’ Spirit Beast Pouch you received and let me see it.”

Upon hearing this, Su Jingzhen was taken aback, but he immediately took down the Boundless pouch.

It had already recognized him as its master when he obtained it.

Therefore, he had already explored its general situation.

As far as he was concerned, Boundless was extremely huge, not inferior to the small secret realm occupied by the Evil Moon Sect in the Qingzhou region.

It was filled with a rather dense spiritual energy that was most suitable for beasts to dwell in.

“Suzhen, do you want to stay inside?”

Su Jingzhen asked Bai Suzhen.

She didn’t say much, and with a flash of white light, she disappeared from the spot and reappeared inside the Boundless Space.

Just when Su Jingzhen thought that Bai Suzhen would make the Spirit Beast Pouch her new home, she reappeared in front of him.

“Although the Boundless Space is quite good, it’s still a bit lacking for me.

I’ll stay with you, whether it’s on your belt or wrapped around your arm. I won’t bother you when you’re busy.

And in the future, when you’re in the Heavenly Dragon Race’s territory, if we come across something useful, I’ll remind you.”

With that, Bai Suzhen’s body flashed with white light again and transformed back into a small snake that wrapped around Su Jingzhen’s right arm.

The familiar cool sensation returned, and Su Jingzhen felt his blood energy slowly flowing toward Bai Suzhen’s position.

He couldn’t help but smile wryly as he realized that Bai Suzhen probably wasn’t satisfied with the environment within Boundless.

His blood energy was more attractive to her.

But he didn’t care.

For a long time, he had gotten used to this way of interacting with Bai Suzhen.

After settling his emotions, Su Jingzhen pushed open the door and walked out of the room.

He immediately saw Qiu Yaoyao’s figure standing in his courtyard. Her red hair was fluttering, and her beautiful eyes were staring at him intently, as if trying to see through him.

“No wonder you’re a body cultivator at the True Embryo Realm, such external injuries are truly insignificant to you,” Qiu Yaoyao remarked with admiration when she saw Su Jingzhen’s stable aura and no trace of injury.

Then she stared at Su Jingzhen intently, “Have you mastered the Dragon Control Art?

Can I see your white snake?”

Yesterday was exceptional, and Qiu Yaoyao hadn’t had a chance to ask Su Jingzhen about Bai Suzhen.

Unable to contain her curiosity, she asked early in the morning.

Upon hearing this, Su Jingzhen’s face showed a hint of difficulty.

Although everyone thought that Bai Suzhen was his contracted animal, he dared not order her to appear for others to observe.

But before he could react, a flash of white light appeared.

Bai Suzhen’s white snake form materialized in the courtyard, three zhang in size.

She was still as beautiful as ever, her sapphire eyes calmly looking at Qiu Yaoyao.

Since Bai Suzhen had decided to actively take on the role of a contracted beast at Su Jingzhen’s side, she had to actively cooperate with him at times.

“What a beautiful white snake. Seeing it up close is even more impressive than yesterday.”

As soon as Bai Suzhen appeared, Qiu Yaoyao’s eyes lit up with admiration.

Yesterday, during Su Jingzhen’s battle with Mu Yizhan, she had already witnessed Bai Suzhen’s skills.

In an instant, she was able to annihilate a peak Divine Intent practitioner and reduce him to nothingness.

Such abilities were beyond most beasts at that level.

So when she saw the white snake’s true form, Qiu Yaoyao didn’t hide her admiration for Bai Suzhen.

“You didn’t catch this in the Heavenly Dragon Race territory, right?”

After a moment’s pause, Qiu Yaoyao looked at Su Jingzhen.

“No, I obtained this in the Qingzhou region.

To be honest, Sister Yaoyao, it was at Clear Wind Mountain behind the Linjiang branch of the Evil Moon Sect, where the so-called spirit vein of liquefied spirit energy was rumored to be.

There was no spirit vein; it was just her.

Since I had a connection with her, she has been following me ever since.”

Now that they had reached the Luo River region, Su Jingzhen had no reason to hide the truth about the so-called spirit vein in Qingzhou.

And saying this would dispel Qiu Yaoyao’s doubts.

Upon hearing this, Qiu Yaoyao actually nodded inwardly.

“Your luck is something I don’t know how to describe.

But you were able to tame such a white snake even before you acquired the Dragon Control Art. It seems that the Heavenly Dragon Race is truly the most suitable force for you.”

As Qiu Yaoyao spoke, Bai Suzhen returned to Su Jingzhen’s right arm.

At this point, Qiu Yaoyao didn’t dwell on the matter.

Although she liked Bai Suzhen, she wouldn’t ask Su Jingzhen for her.

She knew that the relationship between a contracted beast and its master also required a sense of fate.

“Let’s not count your white snake.

Now, I’ll take you to contract your first truly meaningful contracted beast.”
