The protagonist stole my spiritual root? Hey, heroine, give birth to me!

"Hmm! It's getting boring again, let's go!" Zhai Ningning looked at the deserted courtyard, left after saying this.

When his master left, Yan Xi, who was a sycophant, followed without saying a word.

Tang Sirui had calmed down by now, and he and Qingwu left the courtyard one after the other. Zhu Zhu glared at Chen Xuan fiercely, then turned and left.

"Brother, you've struck it rich! This Madam Zhang is not only a direct descendant of the Xiao family, but she's also incredibly powerful. Even many high-ranking members of the Zhang family treat her with deference!" Dai Dabai whispered to Chen Xuan. "Chen Xuan, you must seize this opportunity and cultivate a good relationship with this Madam Zhang!"

"What? How do we do it?"

"Why are you acting stupid again? What are we going to do? You were so good at coaxing people just now, and now you're playing dumb?"

"Oh, you mean this, Lao Da? No problem!" Chen Xuan smiled easily.

"Don't worry about this, brother. I will definitely maintain a good relationship with Madam Zhang!"

"Also, although your peach tree is beautiful, it doesn't seem to have anything special about it. Chen Xuan, you can't neglect your cultivation just because it's beautiful!" Dai Dabai said seriously.

He was giving Chen Xuan a heads-up: his immortal soul was essentially ruined, so he shouldn't have any ideas.

"Don't worry, I know exactly what I'm doing!"

"In that case, I'm relieved! I won't bother you any longer, brother. You can focus on your cultivation here!"

After saying that, Dai Dabai also left the small courtyard.

With nothing else to do, Chen Xuan set up a bunch of formations and then entered his secret realm. He still had many things to do, including marrying his little master, Han Wanqing, before.

“Master Yu, look at Chen Xuan, a person who came from the lower realm, he can become your disciple. Look at my Run’er…” Zhang Wei followed Yu Gang with a fawning smile.

"Hehe, Patriarch Zhang, you also know Chen Xuan. Although he comes from a humble background, he is very diligent and hardworking, and his comprehension is also very high. I admire him very much!" Yu Gang said with a smile.

He knew all too well what Zhang Wei was up to.

"Hehe, Master Yu, Chen Xuan is indeed a very good kid, but my son is not bad either. He is so young, yet he has already reached the third level of the Nascent Soul stage!" Zhang Wei continued to fawn over him.

"Oh, so young? If I remember correctly, he's in his forties or fifties, right? Nascent Soul Stage 3?" Yu Gang then laughed, "Indeed, not bad. But Chen Xuan is even more remarkable; he's already at Nascent Soul Stage 5!"

"But he's not very capable in combat; he's just a lowly doctor!"

“His role is supposed to be support, but your Zhang Run…” Master Yu shook his head.

"This..." Zhang Wei was a little embarrassed, but he had nothing to say.

"Alright, Zhang Wei, I've already examined your son. His talent is indeed average. Although he's a bit stronger than ordinary cultivators, he's no match for a true genius!"

Furthermore, he's different from Chen Xuan; Zhang Run is a combat type, and the two of them are on completely different tracks! Therefore, he's very difficult to train!

"This..." Zhang Wei was a little embarrassed, but he still refused to give up and continued, "Master Yu, please give my son another chance. I will definitely make him work hard in his cultivation!"

“Patriarch Zhang, you don’t need to waste your breath. I’ve already said that your son’s talent is mediocre and he has no ability to become my disciple. So don’t bring this up again!” Yu Gang said coldly.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Wei struggled internally for a long time before finally deciding to give Yu Gang that item, hoping to change his mind.

This treasure is a precious item that Zhang Wei has kept for many years. It is called the "Qilin Bow" and is said to be an ancient artifact with incomparably powerful horse-hunting capabilities.

“Master Yu, this ancient artifact is called the Qilin Bow. It possesses unparalleled power. I hope you will accept it and consider making my son your disciple,” Zhang Wei pleaded.

Yu Gang looked at the Qilin Bow in his hand and was also shocked. He was very knowledgeable and of course knew what this treasure was!

This thing's attack, as long as it hits a person, even if it only grazes the skin, will cause unimaginable horse-hunting power!

At best, the mount will die on the spot; at worst, it may trigger some karmic consequences!

However, this divine bow, though incredibly powerful, has a fatal flaw: it is ineffective against those without a horse!

That's right, it's ineffective. Even if the arrow hits the enemy's heart or forehead, if they are unhorsed, the attack will have no effect whatsoever!

Such a divine artifact would surely tempt even the Jade Master.

"Seeing how persistent Patriarch Zhang is, I naturally feel a little sorry for him!"

"Master Yu, what do you mean...?"

"Hehehe, since Patriarch Zhang is so persistent, I have decided to give Zhang Run a chance and let him stay in the Monster Group as a substitute, just like Chen Xuan."

"Thank you, Master! Thank you, Master! Run'er, come here quickly and kneel down before your teacher!" Zhang Wei said hurriedly.
