When my vicious stepmother mistakenly married me to the Immortal Lord

Don't you want a good hug?

Yun Miao is her opportunity, her "golden thigh", and the guiding light on her path of cultivation.

Although he has always refused to accept him as his disciple, Jiang Song has already regarded him as his master in his heart.

During these days when he couldn't find Yun Miao, Jiang Song felt empty in his heart, with many uneasy emotions lingering in his mind.

Now that I see Yun Miao again and hold this real body in my arms, all the uneasiness and anxiety instantly disappear.

But Yun Miao's breath was held in his throat by this sudden hug.

The subtle fragrance of the woman in his arms continued to flow into his nostrils, causing him to stiffen involuntarily.

He clenched his fists and silently recited the Heart Cleansing Mantra several times before he suppressed the throbbing in his heart.

Yun Miao coughed lightly, her voice a little unnatural: "A Song, let go first, we have something to talk about."

Jiang Song then realized that he had lost his composure and quickly let go of her hand, his cheeks slightly red. "Senior, I'm sorry, I'm just too happy."

"A Song, if Mr. Xie knew you were hugging another man like this, he would be jealous." Yun Miao said with a hint of sarcasm, trying to ease the awkward atmosphere.

Jiang Song's cheeks turned even redder when she heard this. She lowered her head and whispered, "Senior, please don't make fun of me. You are different from my husband. I only have admiration for you, nothing else."

Yun Miao smiled lightly and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He thought...

"Senior, where have you been these days? Why can't I enter the Immortal Palace?" Jiang Song asked impatiently.

"I've been traveling recently for some reason. Your cultivation is limited now. If I'm too far away from you, you won't be able to use the mark I left behind to enter the Immortal Palace."

"Since returning this time, I have strengthened my connection with you around the Immortal Palace. Unless your cultivation level plummets, you should be able to enter at any time in the future."

"I see. I thought I had done something wrong and displeased you, Senior, and was rejected by you."

"A Song, don't think too much. From now on, the gate of the Immortal Palace will never be closed to you again."

A few days ago, the trauma left over from Yun Miao's tribulation suddenly flared up. His body was too weak and his consciousness was almost scattered. He was unable to open the door to the immortal palace, let alone respond to Jiang Song's call.

Fortunately, Xie Ankang brought back a Lingxi grass from the northern border in time, and asked Doctor Xue to brew it into Yuezui wine, which became a good medicine for dual cultivation.

That day, he and Jiang Song drank Yuezui together and practiced together under the bright moon. The Sunlight Gathering Wheel contained in her body was able to feed back to him, helping him stabilize his injuries and recover some of his vitality.

Later, Yun Miao secluded himself for eight days before he completely suppressed the injuries in his body and took the opportunity to consolidate his cultivation.

But Yun Miao couldn't tell Jiang Song all this, at least not yet.

After hearing this, Jiang Song's eyebrows lit up immediately, and even his voice became a little lighter. "Senior, you treat A Song so well. A Song will remember your kindness for the rest of his life."

Yun Miao smiled dotingly and began to guide her to continue practicing the art of controlling thunder.

Jiang Song has now established his foundation. If he wants to quickly break through to the Golden Elixir stage, he can only do so through continuous practice and actual combat accumulation.

The art of controlling thunder is highly compatible with her talent. If she can master it, it will also give her more power to protect herself in future combat experiences.

Yun Miao taught seriously, not missing any details, and Jiang Song also learned very attentively, striving for perfection in every movement.

Time passed quietly as the two of them were concentrating, until the night deepened and the moonlight was as bright as a thread, covering the entire top of the back mountain.

Yun Miao finally stopped explaining, "A Song, let's stop here today. When it comes to cultivation, haste makes waste. You need to combine work and rest to achieve twice the result with half the effort."

Jiang Song rubbed his aching arm and said, "Senior, I will go to the mass grave tomorrow to continue my training."

"Mass grave? You still want to go there?" Yun Miao frowned slightly when he heard this. "You almost died there last time."

"So I have told the senior about my itinerary. With the senior around, A Song is not afraid." Jiang Song blinked with a playful smile on his face.

Yun Miao shook his head helplessly. "I don't have the time to save you. But if you want to go, go ahead. Just be careful and don't be too aggressive."

"Don't worry, Senior. Ah Song will do what he can and won't put himself in danger."

The next evening, Jiang Song put on a human skin mask and came to Tianbao Tower under the alias Luo Fenghe.

She had just signed up for the mission of killing the ghosts in the mass grave a few days ago and also paid a deposit of 10 low-grade spirit stones.

Although there was an accident during the last training, Jiang Song knew that he couldn't be afraid of the rope for ten years after being bitten by a snake.

The path of spiritual practice is full of unknowns and dangers. Only by constantly challenging yourself can you break through yourself.

Inside the Tianbao Tower, the lights were bright and the place was bustling with people.

Monks from all walks of life exchange information, magic weapons, or form teams to explore dangerous places.

Jiang Song came to the reception room of the mission center, where the manager Xie Gaozhao was sitting at the desk, flipping through a thick stack of mission files.

There were already two monks waiting there, and it seemed that they were preparing to go to the mass grave like her.

One of them was a burly man with muscular build, a fierce look on his face, and a huge saber tightly grasped in his hand.

The other man was thin and pale, but there was a cunning glint in his eyes, and his fingers tapped lightly on the storage bag at his waist.

The cultivation base of the two is comparable to Jiang Song's, and both seem to be in the early stages of foundation building.

Fortunately, the hypocrite Mu Yunlan did not show up this time, and Jiang Song secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The shadow of Mu Yunlan's past experience at the mass grave still haunts her.

Xie Gaozhao looked up at Jiang Song and said, "Miss Luo, these two fellow Taoists are your teammates today."

"This is the swordsman Li Man, who possesses immense strength and wields a saber with unparalleled skill. This is the formation master Lin Yi, skilled in arranging various strange formations and able to turn the tide in times of crisis."

Upon hearing this, Li Man smiled gruffly and clasped his fists towards Jiang Song, saying, "Miss Luo, let's take care of each other on this trip, and we'll definitely return safely."

Lin Yi nodded slightly, a gleam in his eyes: "I heard that there are many ghosts in the mass grave. This is a good opportunity for me to verify the new formation."

Jiang Song returned the greeting and said, "It's a pleasure to work with you, my fellow Daoists. I hope we can both gain something from this."

Although he was polite, Jiang Song secretly became more alert.

After all, people's hearts are unpredictable, and even teammates who are temporarily in a team may turn against you at a critical moment.

Xie Gaozhao closed the file in his hand and stood up. "Now that everyone is here, let's set off. This time, I'm your teammate, and I'll go to the mass grave with you."

Jiang Song was slightly surprised. He didn't expect Xie Gaozhao to lead the team personally.

Didn't he hate the foul smell of the mass grave the most and was disgusted that it would pollute his body?

Why did you suddenly change your mind today and want to go there in person?

Xie Gaozhao seemed to see through Jiang Song's thoughts and smiled slightly, "It's also because the government is putting pressure on me. If I don't lead the team myself, I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain to them."

In fact, my inner monologue was: Woo woo woo woo, if the young master hadn’t insisted that I go with him, I wouldn’t bother coming to this damn place!

But he naturally couldn't say this, so he could only find a relatively decent reason.
