After rebirth, the eldest sister voluntarily abdicated and gave way to the wise.

Five-element spiritual roots can fill their Dantian with five-element spiritual energy, while empty spiritual roots can only fill the same amount of spiritual energy with a single spiritual energy, which takes a lot of time and is extremely difficult to imagine. To put it in a more vivid way, if spiritual energy is replaced by rice, if an ordinary cultivator needs a bucket of rice to fill their Dantian, then a cultivator with empty spiritual roots would need a hundred buckets of rice.

Empty spiritual roots require their owners to have extraordinary comprehension, otherwise they are no different from useless spiritual roots. The massive amount of spiritual energy required can consume the owner to death at the starting point.

Jiang Liqian glanced at Xu Zisheng, who looked uneasy, and pursed her lips. The thunder spiritual power flowed from his meridians into his dantian. After feeling the vast suction force there like water entering the sea, she calmed down and slowly withdrew the spiritual power.

His eyes slowly fell on the empty teacup, and Xu Zishen immediately poured new tea and filled it up for her.

"How...how is it? Can I cultivate immortality? Can you...teach me?" Xu Zisheng was so nervous that his palms were sweating.

Jiang Liqian raised her eyelids, sighed softly, and shook her head helplessly at him.

The hope in Xu Zisheng's eyes disappeared in an instant, his whole body swayed, and he sat down on the ground in a daze.

Finally, a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"So, is this all my life supposed to be?"

Is it the will of heaven that he should be subjected to humiliation and disgust, with no chance of recovery?

His dark eyes moved, Jiang Liqian picked up the water he poured, took a sip, and then casually put it on the table.

"You don't believe in fate?" she suddenly asked.

Xu Zisheng smiled dejectedly.

"I don't believe it, but now I have to believe it. What can I do?"

"Why did you become a beggar, forced to live in Sanxin City?"

"My parents are dead, my brothers are all gone, I am all alone, with no one to rely on. How can I survive except by becoming a beggar?"

Jiang Liqian was silent for a moment, then finally asked him a question: "Do you think cultivating immortality is good? What if you regret it later?"

Xu Zisheng shook his head: "I won't regret it. I won't regret any step I take."

Jiang Liqian was stunned.

[Ding! The backlash value of the young master's inner demon has decreased by 1%. The current backlash value is 52%.]

The determination in his eyes seemed to be just like her previous life, a sincere and never-give-up girl.

He said he would not regret it.

But she regretted it.

This road to becoming an immortal is so long and so cold, and you can never see the end.

She curled the corners of her mouth in self-mockery and looked out the window where the grass was lush and the birds were singing.

He whispered, "Get up! Since you want to change your fate, why do you feel sorry for yourself and blame others for the slightest setback?"

Xu Zisheng's lost expression froze, and then great surprise suddenly appeared in his eyes. He jumped up from the ground excitedly.

"Can I cultivate immortality? You're willing to teach me, right? What do I need to do? I can do anything!"

Jiang Liqian raised a finger: "First thing, from today on, don't follow me, can you do it?"

Xu Zisheng was speechless.

Jiang Liqian rolled her eyes and waved her hand to impose restrictions around her.

"It's not that you don't have spiritual roots, it's just that your spiritual roots are special. Few people know about them, so that's why people say you don't have spiritual roots."

Xu Zisheng looked puzzled: "Special spiritual roots?"

Jiang Liqian nodded: "Have you heard of the Void Spirit Root?"

Xu Zisheng shook his head.

He had only heard of the five spiritual roots of gold, wood, water, fire and earth, as well as three mutated spiritual roots, but had never heard of any other spiritual roots.

Jiang Liqian looked at him and said, "The Void Spiritual Root is extremely rare, and only exists in legends. With this spiritual root, your path to immortality is almost smooth sailing. So, you are very lucky. You are not abandoned by the Heavenly Dao, but rather a darling of the Heavenly Dao."

Xu Zisheng opened his eyes wide, opened his mouth slightly, and looked blank. It took him a long time to digest what she said.

Jiang Liqian found it a little funny and knocked him on the head with chopsticks.

"Don't be too happy too soon. Although the ethereal root is good, it also has its flaws. Becoming an immortal is not that simple."

Xu Zisheng didn't think there was anything wrong. He was so happy that he danced with joy and wanted to pull Jiang Liqian around in circles.

He doesn't care whether he has flaws or not. Now he can become an immortal. He can become an immortal!

Just for this, he is willing to be grateful to Jiang Liqian for the rest of his life.

Seeing how happy he was, Jiang Liqian couldn't help but smile slightly, but it only lasted for a moment before she stopped smiling.

"I am only a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage right now. I am not qualified to accept disciples yet. I cannot teach you how to cultivate immortality. Since you know your spiritual roots, you should go find a sect to join yourself. Starting tomorrow, don't follow me. I have my own things to do."

His goal was achieved, and her patience was about to run out. She was too lazy to say high-sounding words. In short, they should go their separate ways and not get involved.

Unexpectedly, after hearing her words, Xu Zisheng became embarrassed again and refused to leave. He hesitantly took a step closer to her and carefully considered his words: "Miss Jiang, you have been so kind to me. How can I leave before I repay you?"

Jiang Liqian waved her hand to remove the restriction, glanced at him, and leaned against the window with her arms folded, her expression cold and bored. "So, what do you mean?"

"You came out alone, you must have something to do. I'll follow you, and when you're done, I'll become your disciple and leave you alone."

A flash of surprise flashed across her eyes, and she lowered her eyes.

"I do not need."

Xu Zisheng said firmly: "I know you are very annoyed with me, but I want to repay you. Please tolerate me for a while. I will definitely not hold you back."

Squinting her eyes slightly, she looked at him and saw that his expression did not seem fake. Jiang Liqian rubbed her temples and sighed.

"Do you really want to follow me? If you die, I won't save you."

Xu Zisheng smiled. He knew that what she said meant she was willing to compromise. He immediately turned around and left the room, asking the waiter for some snacks and food so that she could have a good meal.

Xinxin flew out dissatisfiedly at this time, flew around Jiang Liqian, and said with a pout: "Little Master, isn't it enough to have Xinxin accompany you? That person is full of tricks, who knows if he will deceive you again?"

Jiang Liqian reached out and touched her little head, then adjusted the small hairband on her head. She smiled and said, "Your young master is not stupid. He knows my whereabouts. Instead of selling me without my knowledge, it's better to keep him under his nose. If there is any unusual movement, he can kill him in time and eliminate the trouble forever. Isn't it better?"

Xinxin leaned against Jiang Liqian's face, her innocent big eyes blinking.

"Does the young master really think so?

"But why does Xinxin feel that the young master has no intention of killing anyone?"

She is her inner demon.

No one understands her heart better than her.

Jiang Liqian knew it, so she didn't explain a word.
