Kill the heroine at the beginning, and the little apprentice sister will take away the luck

Leng Zhuxin practiced in the space for a day and a night, and only left the space when he received Chen Wei's message.

Chen Wei was at the gate of the courtyard. Leng Zhuxin closed the formation and welcomed her in. He wanted to pour Chen Wei a cup of tea but then he remembered that few people came here and he had not prepared any tea.

Thinking of the spiritual fruits in the Cangshan Secret Realm Mountains that had just been integrated into the space, he asked Xiaohan to pick a few, and Leng Zhuxin took them out and put them on the table.

"Spirit peach?" Chen Wei's eyes lit up and she picked up one. The fur on it looked very fresh.

Although it is not a particularly rare spiritual fruit, its pink and tender appearance is very tempting.

Leng Zhuxin had never eaten the spiritual peaches in the space before. She picked up one, peeled it and took a bite. The sweet peach juice instantly flowed into her mouth, and the sweetness reached her heart.

Chen Wei squinted her eyes comfortably. After eating a spiritual peach, she wiped the peach juice off her hands with a feeling of unsatisfied feeling. She took out a jade slip from her storage bag and handed it to Leng Zhuxin.

“This is the recipe for the elixir I got in the Cangshan Secret Realm, it’s the Ascension Pill.

I made a copy for you and also gave one to my master.

With this Ascension Pill, the cultivators of our Qingxuan Continent may have a chance to ascend."

Chen Wei was a little excited. No one had ascended to heaven in the Qingxuan Continent for thousands of years. When the cultivators who had reached the Mahayana stage were nearing the end of their lives, they would either die under heavenly thunder and their souls would be destroyed, or they would disintegrate into scattered immortals.

The two old ancestors of the Qingxuan Sect only have about 500 years left to live. They have been in seclusion in the back mountains, suppressing their cultivation and not daring to try to ascend.

Now that we have the Ascension Pill, once it is successfully refined, the ancestor will have a better chance of ascending to heaven.

As soon as Zhong Qing got the recipe for the Ascension Pill, he went to the back mountain to find the ancestor, and then immediately went into seclusion to prepare for promotion to a tenth-grade alchemist. The Ascension Pill is a tenth-grade pill, and only a tenth-grade alchemist can refine it.

However, the only tenth-grade alchemist in Qingxuan Continent disappeared fourteen years ago. Now the highest-grade alchemist in Qingxuan Continent is Zhong Qing, and the burden of the Ascension Pill naturally falls on her.

At the same time, some of the spiritual herbs needed for the Ascension Pill are not available in Qingxuan Sect, and they are extremely rare and hard to come by, so people have to be sent to look for them.

The elders in Qingxuan Sect who were not in charge of important affairs in the sect had already set out to look for the spiritual herbs needed for the Ascension Pill. Qingxuan Sect also opened up the spiritual herbs mission to all disciples.

But he didn't say it was for the Ascension Pill, but found another reason and distributed it to several elders.

As for the matter of the Ascension Pill, apart from Chen Wei and Leng Zhuxin, the only people in the sect who know about it are Master Gu Yanhuai and his disciples, including Zhong Qing.

Gu Yanhuai also planned to keep Shangguan Heng's matter a secret. Shangguan Heng's strong strength might make it easier for him to find the spiritual herbs, but Gu Yanhuai always felt that this junior brother had no sense of justice. In addition, the incident of leaving halfway while leading the team to explore the secret realm of Cangshan, although not a big deal, made him feel that Shangguan Heng did not have much sense of responsibility.

If Shangguan Heng knew the recipe for the Ascension Pill, although Shangguan Heng was in the late stage of tribulation and was about to enter the Mahayana stage, and would do his best to ensure his ascension in the future, the first Ascension Pill would most likely not fall into the hands of the ancestors who were in seclusion in the back mountain.

The ancestors have dedicated their entire lives to the Qingxuan Sect, and the first ascension pill should be given to them.

In addition, if there are any surpluses, it will be their turn as the two brothers.

Because of this idea, Gu Yanhuai did not intend to tell Shangguan Heng about the Ascension Pill. He only planned to negotiate with Shangguan Heng in his personal name and ask Shangguan Heng to help find the necessary spiritual herbs.

When there are any extra ones after refining, I will give one to Shangguan Heng. If there are none, I will refine more.

But even this last thought was immediately dismissed when Shangguan Heng returned.

……

Shangguan Heng came back when Chen Wei handed the jade slip with the recipe for the Ascension Pill to Leng Zhuxin.

He also brought a mortal with a missing face.

The mortal was a woman, about twenty years old, with a reddish-brown birthmark on her left cheek, the size of an egg.

Although she didn't have any spiritual roots, Shangguan Heng insisted on taking her as his disciple and even asked Gu Yanhuai for spiritual herbs.

Gu Yanhuai had already given the Spirit Summoning Herb to Leng Zhuxin, so he naturally didn't have it on hand. He and several elders persuaded Shangguan Heng to think twice.

Ordinary cultivators can accept anyone they want as their disciple, but Shangguan Heng is the Changheng Immortal Venerable of Qingxuan Sect, and his every move represents Qingxuan Sect.

Every five years, the direct disciples of each sect will hold a competition. They will be divided into several levels according to their cultivation level, and no direct disciple can escape.

If Shangguan Heng accepted such a mortal without spiritual roots as his disciple, he would almost certainly lose, and this mortal might even lose his life.

They tried their best to persuade him but still could not change Shangguan Heng's mind of accepting this mortal as his disciple, even though they said that he could stay in the sect as an inner disciple of Changheng Mountain.

Shangguan Heng decided to accept the woman as his last disciple.

Seeing this, Gu Yanhuai had no choice but to send a message to Leng Zhuxin and ask her to come to the Sect Master's Hall.

When Leng Zhuxin and Chen Wei entered the main hall, they saw several elders, including Shangguan Heng, and thought they were there for Zhang Wulin's matter. However, as soon as they entered the hall, Shangguan Heng spoke to Leng Zhuxin in a cold and commanding tone: "Do you have the Summoning Spirit Herb? Give it to me."

The mortal woman stood behind him with her head lowered. Leng Zhuxin recognized her as Leng Yueyao at a glance. Even though she looked only slightly similar to the previous Leng Yueyao and had a birthmark on her face, her aura and facial features could not be deceived.

The reason for summoning the spiritual herbs should be for Leng Yueyao.

Leng Zhuxin thought to herself, and walked up to Gu Yanhuai without any panic on her face: "Spirit Summoning Herb? The one that Master gave me?"

Gu Yanhuai felt a little uncomfortable about having to take back what he had already given to his disciple, but for the sake of his own junior brother who seemed to be crazy and wanted to take such a mortal as his disciple, Gu Yanhuai still spoke awkwardly: "Yes, your uncle Chang Heng was determined to take that woman as his last disciple, but that woman had no spiritual roots and could not practice, so she wanted to summon the spiritual grass.

The Soul-Summoning Herb was originally intended for you to give to your relatives and friends in need when you return home to visit in the future, but your uncle needs it urgently. Why don't we give it to your uncle first?

Ask your uncle to give you a few more spiritual herbs and treasures, and your master will find you another spiritual summoning herb in the future?"

Gu Yanhuai said this, but he also knew how rare the Summoning Spirit Herb was. It would not be easy to replace it in the future if he lost it, otherwise Shangguan Heng would not have asked Gu Yanhuai for it instead of asking for it himself.

So he thought of letting Leng Zhuxin take this opportunity to ask Shangguan Heng for more compensation.

Leng Zhuxin glanced at Leng Yueyao who was standing next to Shangguan Heng. Leng Yueyao didn't seem to recognize who Leng Zhuxin was, and she didn't seem to know Leng Zhuxin at all. She just timidly grasped Shangguan Heng's wide sleeves.

“It’s such a coincidence that I lost the Soul Summoning Grass in the Cangshan Secret Realm.

We were in danger at that time, and Senior Brother Zhang Wulin abandoned his fellow disciples and left. I was so nervous that I accidentally threw the Soul Summoning Grass out when I took out the talisman from the storage ring.

There was no time to pick it up at the critical moment of life and death. Then Sister Chen and I were thrown out of the secret realm and saved our lives.

If Immortal Chang Heng doesn't believe me, you can ask Senior Sister Chen if I threw a jade box out in a panic and it got swept away by the withered vines."

Leng Zhuxin didn't show any guilt at all. After he finished speaking, he stood beside Gu Yanhuai and didn't say anything else.

Shangguan Heng didn't know whether to believe it or not. He stared at Leng Zhuxin for a long time before turning to look at Chen Wei: "Is what she said true?"

"Every word is true. It is indeed Senior Brother Zhang Wulin who cowardly left us behind among the withered vines. Xinxin did throw out a jade box, and it must contain the Spirit Summoning Grass."

Chen Wei added that she was afraid of death, which instantly made Shangguan Heng's face turn black.

Shangguan Heng snorted coldly, "My disciple is afraid of death? Where is Zhang Wulin now? I will ask him personally."

"Zhang Wulin abandoned his fellow disciples and refused to confess his guilt after returning to the sect. He falsely accused his fellow disciples of having their cultivation abolished and was imprisoned in the Ice Prison to be tortured. Since my junior brother was not in the sect at the time, I handled the matter on their behalf.

Before the execution, they had already expelled him from the sect on behalf of their fellow apprentice. Everything they said was true. It was understandable that they accidentally threw the wrong thing in a critical moment."

Gu Yanhuai also spoke with his hands behind his back, telling about the handling of Zhang Wulin.

Shangguan Heng's face darkened even further, and his tone was quite gnashing as he spoke: "Since it is Senior Brother who is handling this matter on my behalf, I naturally have no objection. However, I will personally check whether the Summoning Spirit Herb is missing."
