So what if I'm useless? I'll become a saint!

Chapter 9 Return to the Ling Family

"I didn't mean to hide it from you."

Ling Jiuan looked sincere and raised four fingers, "I swear."

Lei Tingyi retracted his gaze and said nonchalantly: "Let me hear your explanation first."

Seeing that he was relatively indifferent, Ling Jiuan curled her lips. She was about to complain that he was easily angry, but suddenly she remembered that the blood of the wild beast was obtained by Lei Tingyi when he was injured, and she should explain it clearly out of emotion and reason.

Ling Jiuan felt a little guilty thinking about this, and quickly sat up straight in the direction of Lei Tingyi.

"The night I drank the blood of the wild beast, I didn't absorb all of it. A drop of blood was wandering in my meridians. Apart from a dull pain, nothing bad happened. I thought it was no big deal."

"Just now when Wang Yangming hit me, this drop of blood suddenly rushed to my heart meridian. I don't know how it happened, but it not only protected my heart meridian from being seriously injured and dying, but also absorbed the sword energy."

When she dealt with Wang Yangming and Chen Yan, whether she was absorbing sword energy for her own use, or the faint golden light on her body when she attacked, it was all the power of that drop of essence and blood.

By herself, she can only fight with bare hands, which does not allow her to have such great killing power.

When dealing with Wang Yangming, she knew the wonderful use of this drop of essence and blood, but she knew that she could not absorb all nine sword energies, so she used her wits to withstand a few of the sword energies in order to win.

As for Chen Yan, she really couldn't beat him.

She first pretended to be unconscious after being beaten, then absorbed Wang Yangming's power through his essence and blood, and was able to turn the tide of the battle with a fatal blow.

Ling Jiuan explained everything clearly, and when he looked up, he found that Lei Tingyi was still calm and didn't even react when he heard it.

"No, don't you find it magical at all?"

She moved closer to Lei Tingyi and pointed at herself: "I almost died. If it weren't for this drop of blood essence and my own intelligence, I would have been a corpse in front of you now!"

Lei Tingyi's expression remained calm, but his heart was filled with turmoil.

"From what you described, that drop of blood should be the blood of the beast's heart."

"Heartache?"

Ling Jiuan tried hard to search the original owner's memory and suddenly realized.

Although the blood of wild beasts is a great tonic for humans, the blood of the heart is the result of the essence of heaven and earth and their own cultivation.

Since ancient times, only the chosen holy cultivators could absorb the blood of wild beasts.

"You don't mean to say that I'm the Chosen Saint Cultivator?"

Ling Jiuan's eyes lit up and his heart began to boil.

However, her excitement only lasted for a blink of an eye before Lei Tingyi poured a bucket of cold water on her.

"For a Saint cultivator to achieve great success in cultivation, not to mention reaching the highest state of perfection, first of all, he needs to have extraordinary spiritual roots from the moment he is born."

Lei Tingyi looked Ling Jiuan up and down, and curved his thin lips slightly: "You, do you have it?"

Ling Jiuan was speechless for a while.

You're asking this question even though you already know the answer.

How could she be extraordinary? She didn't even have the lowest level of spiritual roots!

However, Ling Jiuan was only disappointed for a moment before he straightened his back and rekindled his fighting spirit.

"I have never been a chosen one. My destiny is in my own hands. Without spiritual roots, I will seek other ways to become stronger. I can win twice today, and maybe I can win three times, ten times, or countless times tomorrow!"

Since she started working as a special forces soldier, she has grown through countless trials and tribulations.

For her, the honor of being different from others since birth and being a little better than others has no appeal at all!

Seeing Ling Jiuan's high spirits, Lei Tingyi was stunned for a moment.

This girl is so resilient at such a young age.

No wonder she can stimulate the blood of the wild beast's heart at the critical moment and use it for her own benefit.

Lei Tingyi collected his thoughts and said, "Alright, this little trick is just your luck. You won two games by chance. If you go to a dangerous place like the secret realm, you may not be able to escape unscathed."

"...Can't you encourage me a little? Can you praise me so much that I can die?"

Ling Jiuan's eyes were about to fly to the sky.

She was just gathering her strength to complain a few more times when a book suddenly appeared in her arms.

"Fu Zanlu, what is this?" Ling Jiuan was puzzled.

Lei Tingyi stood straight, looking straight ahead: "The book records spells. If you practice diligently, you can gain some spell power with the spells. However, only people with spiritual roots can practice it. Since you can absorb the blood of wild beasts, you can also try this book."

"You are willing to give me such a good thing? You are so kind to me!"

Ling Jiuan immediately couldn't let go of it, and he put his arm around Lei Tingyi's shoulder and said with a smile: "You know a lot, and you have a lot of good things. I'm really curious about who you are."

Lei Tingyi stiffened slightly.

Noticing the alertness and vigilance that suddenly rose from him, Jiuan immediately withdrew his hand: "I was just saying it casually. Where you are from is not important to me."

What matters is that this person is useful to her.

She also believed that Lei Tingyi had more than just this book of talismans.

"correct."

Lei Tingyi didn't take her words to heart. "The power of a drop of heart blood is limited. Once it is consumed, it is gone. You are very weak now."

Ling Jiuan's eyebrows jumped: "Oh... Anyway, I don't need to rely on its power."

Next, she just needs to improve her strength and wait for the day when the secret realm opens.

She has long been fascinated by the legend of the secret realm. Although it is full of dangers, it also contains many good things that can improve one's strength.

Maybe she could find a way to become stronger faster than training the body.

She must go to this secret place and come back alive!

At this time, the carriage stopped.

The curtain was lifted, and the two old women looked unfriendly and stared at Ling Jiuan with contempt.

"Fifth Miss, come down."

Ling Jiuan suddenly felt that they looked familiar, and it took him a moment to identify them from the original owner's memory.

Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Wang.

He is a subordinate of Ling Changfeng's concubine, Madam Lan.

Mrs. Lan has a son and a daughter. The son is Ling Jiuze, the second son of the Ling family, and the daughter is Ling Jiuxi, the third daughter of the Ling family.

Although the two were born out of wedlock, the original owner's mother, the principal wife, had passed away many years ago, so Changfeng never remarried and the internal affairs were left to Madam Lan.

As a result, the brother and sister enjoyed a very high status in the mansion.

The original body was forced to move to Lingtian Courtyard since childhood and did not often interact with other members of the Ling family.

Apart from the younger generation of the Ling family who often went there to cause trouble, the only ones who dealt with the original owner were these two subordinates of Madam Lan.

During festivals, Liu Pozi and Wang Pozi would be ordered to bring food and drinks to the original owner.

On the surface, Madam Lan was very caring towards the original owner, but secretly the two old women would secretly take away the good things and replace them with stale fruits and vegetables.

Ling Jiuan didn't believe that there was no instruction from Madam Lan.

Now that she is back, the two old women are so unhappy, which reflects what Madam Lan is thinking.

Ling Jiuan thought about the few people in his mind, ignored the two old women, and jumped off the carriage to go in.

"Slow down!"

Mrs. Wang suddenly reached out to stop her, her face full of displeasure, "Miss Fifth has been in the back hills for too long. She is really unruly! How can a rich lady be so rude? In this Ling family, she will be punished by copying the family rules!"
