The difficult path of cultivation for a grassroots female practitioner

Ji Zhiheng said from the side: "That person's name is Wenyuan. I will draw your portrait."

After saying that, he took out a blank jade slip, engraved Wen Yuan's portrait into it, and handed it to Su Zihou.

Su Zihou took it, immersed his spiritual sense in it to take a look, and then his eyes widened.

"You said, this man's name is Wenyuan?" He shook the jade slip in his hand and looked at Ji Zhiheng in surprise.

Ji Zhiheng nodded. "Yes, that's the name written on his identity jade token. He's at the late stage of foundation building. Oh, and he's been poisoned by the skunk's stinky gas. It probably won't be eliminated in a short time."

Su Zihou was a little confused. He forced a smile and said, "I'll send Junior Sister Xiao back to recover first, and then help her find this person."

Ji Zhiheng said, "I don't think he'll be returning to Xinyue City for the time being. I'm afraid he won't be easy to find. Okay, I'll leave him in your hands. I have to go back to the Monster Forest to check. If I run into Wenyuan, I'll send you a message."

After saying that, he wrapped Xiao Han with his spiritual power and sent her to Su Zihou's flying sword.

Xiao Han said to Ji Zhiheng with gratitude, "Friend Ji, I cannot thank you enough for your kindness. I will come back to thank you after I recover."

Although it is said that great favors do not require thanks, she will always give something to express her gratitude when the time comes.

Ji Zhiheng waved his hand and said, "I'm the captain, it's my duty to save you. Okay, I'm leaving now."

After saying that, he jumped onto the flying sword and flew to the Monster Forest again.

Huang Fei didn't know whether he was still nearby, and Wen Yuan didn't know whether he had escaped or not. He had to go back and take a look before making a decision.

Su Zihou used his flying sword to carry Xiao Han at a low altitude and sent her back to the stone house where she lived.

After placing Xiao Han on the stone bed in her bedroom, Su Zihou took out two pill bottles and placed them on her bedside.

"Junior Sister Xiao, these two pills, one is for repairing internal organ damage, and the other is for bone healing. You should take good care of your injuries first, and I will come back to see you."

Xiao Han quickly refused, "There's no need for the pills. My injury will heal after a few days of rest."

Su Zihou didn't want to waste any more words. He was in a state of confusion and anxious to verify something. He just said, "I'm leaving first."

Then he left in a hurry.

Although Xiao Han could feel that Su Zihou seemed to be hiding something, he didn't think much about it. He just thought about his every move after meeting Wen Yuan.

But after thinking about it, I still can’t figure it out.

However, as soon as Su Zihou left Xiao Han's stone house, he couldn't wait to take out his communication magic weapon and wanted to contact his mother.

Because he thought of the inexplicable words his mother said when she contacted him last time.

Is there something here that I don't know?

However, just when he was about to activate the communication magic weapon, he stopped, turned around and headed straight for the Su family's shop in Crescent City.

The Su family is one of the many immortal cultivation families under the jurisdiction of the Juxian Sect, so naturally they will open a shop in the prosperous immortal city of Xinyue City.

The shop owner and the waiter who look after the shop are all members of the Su family.

As soon as Su Zihou entered, the Qi training member of the Su family who was watching the store recognized at a glance this clan member who was a disciple of Jindan Zhenren of the Juxian Sect.

He immediately came forward to greet him warmly, "Brother Zihou, you are here."

Su Zihou asked directly, "Has Brother Ziyuan come to Xinyue City?"

He recognized the cultivator named Wen Yuan in the image jade slip given to him by Ji Zhiheng at a glance. He was a cousin of the Su family.

Originally, he entered the Juxian Sect at a very young age, and he did not recognize many members of the Su family. However, Su Ziran was an orphan from a branch of the Su family whose parents had both died. Later, he was picked up by Su's father and put under him to work.

Su Ziyuan was able to successfully establish his foundation thanks to his father's help, so he was always grateful to his father and obeyed his advice. Even after he had a fortuitous encounter and reached the late stage of foundation building, reaching the same level of cultivation as his father, he still treated him with extraordinary respect.

Su Ziyuan had been ordered to deliver things to Su Zihou several times, so Su Zihou naturally recognized him.

Therefore, when Su Zihou discovered that Wenyuan might be Su Ziyuan, and thought of his mother's inexplicable words, he suddenly felt that Xiao Han's sneak attack might be related to himself.

Only then did he come to the store to verify it in a panic.

Sure enough, the tribesman nodded confidently and said, "Brother Ziyuan has been in Xinyue City these days, leaving early and returning late every day. He seems to be very busy."

Su Zihou got the answer he wanted and turned around and left the store.

He found a private room in a teahouse, cast a soundproof cover, and then took out the communication magic weapon.

"Dad, is Brother Ziyuan home?"

Father Su: "What do you want to do with him?"

Su Ziyuan: "Why did he want to kill Xiao Han? Xiao Han couldn't possibly have an enemy with him, so he killed her only because of me, but why? Is there some misunderstanding here?"

Father Su was silent for a moment. "Zihou, you are the most promising cultivator among the younger generation of the Su family to achieve Jindan. I don't want you to waste your time and energy on romantic relationships. You may hate me now, but in the future, when you become a Jindan cultivator, you will thank me."

Su Zihou suddenly understood something. He raised his voice, "Dad, are you mistaken? I don't want a Taoist partner at all. It was you who wanted me to marry into the Lin family. After all the hard work, Lin Wanqing was seduced away by Lou Luan, and I was relieved. But what does this have to do with Xiao Han?"

Xiao Han and I are just ordinary friends. She is a casual cultivator who joined the Juxian Sect. His brother and I are good friends, and that's how we got to know each other. Who told you that Xiao Han and I were in a relationship? Why didn't you ask me before you murdered an innocent person?

Father Su angrily said, "What the Lin family's Patriarch said, how could it be wrong? Besides, I also asked Ziyuan to go to Xinyue City to investigate. Do you dare to say that you and her are not intimate?"

Su Zihou was even more furious. "She and I haven't met many times, so how could we be so close? Sometimes when we meet, it's just friends helping each other. Just like this morning, she was going to the Monster Forest to kill monsters, but she was assigned to Lou Luan's team. He's the same Lou who seduced Lin Wanqing. He's not easy to get along with, so Xiao Han asked me to help her get transferred to another team.

Dad, ask yourself, is it considered being clingy to help a friend with such a small favor?

When Father Su heard his son's angry but well-reasoned words, he suddenly realized that there might be some misunderstanding.

But if there was a misunderstanding, it was not his fault. Wasn't it that the head of the Lin family squeezed the head of the Su family, and then the head of the Su family scolded him, so he believed it preconceivedly?

He was a little embarrassed for a moment, so he pretended to be nonchalant and said, "Even if it's a misunderstanding, so what? He's just a casual cultivator. He's dead if he dies."

Su Zihou grew even angrier, and said indignantly, "Dad, you know I'm on my way to forming a pill, and that's when I have to face the test of my inner demons. Something like this happened, and you just said, 'If he died, then so be it.' But that was my friend, a friend who died innocently because of me. How can I let my heart be clear and my thoughts be clear? How can I get through this test of my inner demons?"

Father Su was speechless. He hadn't really thought about it that much, mainly because he hadn't intended to let Su Zihou know about it. But now his son not only knew about it, but he also misunderstood his son and the female cultivator.

"Well, uh, that female cultivator is already dead. There's nothing we can do about it. It's none of your business. It's all my father's fault. You don't need to feel any psychological burden."

Su Zihou interrupted him, "Xiao Han is not dead yet, but he is seriously injured. Please bring one million spirit stones and settle this matter."
