The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

“Su doesn’t know why Daoist Chen said this.”

“There is no explanation, of course.”

Su Jingzhen put down his wine cup and waved his hand.

Since Chen Chong wanted to find trouble with him, and Shuang Jiang was present, he was more than happy to accept the challenge.

If someone with a strong backing didn’t dare to cause trouble, it would be a disappointment.

Moreover, Chen Chong was currently the only one causing trouble, which was far from enough.

His goal was to test Chen Jinshi’s reaction.

Chen Jinshi had just come out of seclusion, and might be able to advance to become an inner disciple of Huayang Sect the next day.

Therefore, his attitude would greatly influence Huayang Sect’s stance.

Then, he looked at Chen Chong and said, “I, from the beginning have never said that I wanted to merge Peach Blossom Alley’s Enlightenment School with Cuiliu Alley, and Daoist Chen can’t deny that, can he?”

“You…”

Chen Chong was slightly stunned when Su Jingzhe said this.

He opened his mouth but couldn’t say anything to refute.

【Emotional Connection+8】

【Remaining usable points: 253】

As soon as Su Jingzhen’s words fell, a small golden character floated in front of him.

He subconsciously glanced at Shuang Jiang, and saw that the corner of her mouth was also curled up in a smile.

Shuang Jiang’s scar was still visible, but when Su Jingzhen saw her smile, he felt for the first time that it wasn’t unpleasant.

It was clear that Shuang Jiang also acknowledged Su Jingzhen’s performance at this moment.

Su Jingzhen’s mouth also curled up in a similar arc.

The big leg had acknowledged him.

From now on, he wouldn’t have any more worries about this matter.

On this topic, Chen Chong admitted that he had underestimated Su Jingzhen.

He hadn’t expected Su Jingzhen to be so quick-witted.

But Chen Chong coldly laughed and said, “Merging the Enlightenment Schools of Linjiang City is the common wish of all, the expectation of all.”

“Many fellow Daoists have already expressed their attitudes, and Daoist Su, are you going to stubbornly stand in opposition to all the fellow Daoists?”

“Don’t you know that your cultivation is only at the initial stage of Qi refinement?”

“How can you be trusted to teach the children?”

Previously, his proposal had already received many people’s approval.

Many people present wanted to form an alliance with the Chen family.

At this time, it was impossible for anyone to stand on Su Jingzhen’s side.

Deliberately mentioning Su Jingzhen’s cultivation was almost like an insult, making him see his own limitations.

At this banquet, all the people he had invited were at the middle stage of Qi refinement or above.

Only Su Jingzhen was at the initial stage of Qi refinement.

Who among the seated guests wasn’t stronger than him, and who wasn’t afraid of offending him?

But when Chen Chong spoke, Su Jingzhen’s face still maintained a warm smile.

It turned out that he had been waiting for Chen Chong to say this.

“If we’re talking about martial power, then I, Su, am naturally not worth mentioning at the initial stage of Qi refinement.”

“But if we’re talking about guiding children who haven’t started cultivating, can it be judged by cultivation?”

“If we must compare, then why don’t we compare the effects of the two schools’ children in the upcoming Awakening Ceremony? I wonder what Daoist Chen thinks?”

He had always had absolute confidence in Ning Yao.

Today, seeing Shuang Jiang’s fondness for Ning Yao, he was even more confident.

He knew that Shuang Jiang must not be an ordinary person, just like himself.

Many children from Cuiliu School had previously studied at Peach Blossom Alley’s Enlightenment School.

Su Jingzhen didn’t say that he had taught all of them, but he had some impression of most of the children.

He believed that no one was more excellent than Ning Yao.

So, if they were to compare results, in his opinion, he only needed Ning Yao to surpass all of them!

Su Jingzhen also knew that this might be the point that Chen Chong was most worried about.

If he was confident, he wouldn’t have chosen to hold this banquet on the eve of the Awakening Ceremony.

In this way, he was targeting himself.

Su Jingzhen seemed to be speaking casually, but he had grasped the initiative.

This surprised the people at the central three tables.

To them, it wasn’t that Su Jingzhen’s quick wit was so impressive.

Rather, they were astonished that a Qi refinement beginner with no background and no foundation dared to challenge Chen Chong, a prestigious and powerful Qi refinement late-stage cultivator.

Was he really so fearless, or was he just foolish?

Luo Yuebai’s gaze towards Su Jingzhen became even more curious.

He increasingly felt that the pill fragrance he had smelled that night might be related to Su Jingzhen.

If he was a high-quality alchemist, it was possible that he wasn’t afraid of Chen Chong, or even the entire Chen family.

As the situation developed to this point, Feng Qingya, sitting across from Luo Yuebai, also revealed a hint of interest in her eyes.

“Just now I saw that Daoist Luo came from that side, and Daoist Luo’s friend seems to have quite a personality…”

“Could it be that his boldness comes from you, Daoist Luo?”

Feng Qingya asked curiously.

Earlier, during her conversation with Luo Yuebai, Luo Yuebai had intentionally or unintentionally revealed some things to her.

She knew that Luo Yuebai was not simple either.

At least, he shouldn’t be afraid of the Chen family.

“No, I’ve only known Friend Su for a short time, and we just happen to be neighbors.”

Luo Yuebai didn’t explain much about Su Jingzhen to Feng Qingya.

Some things were better left unknown, and it was enough for one to discover them on their own; there was no need to share with others.

Meanwhile, Zhang Hong and another elder from Huayang Sect at another table also smiled.

They looked at Chen Chong with interest, then at Su Jingzhen.

These two people, with their obviously unequal identities, could collide and create sparks, and they were somewhat looking forward to it.

Although they were on the same side as the Chen family, in their eyes, if Chen Chong couldn’t even handle a Qi refinement beginner like Su Jingzhen…

They would also be disappointed.

“Ah? Daoist Chen, you won’t even dare to take this on?”

“Daoist Chen previously said that the teachers at Cuiliu Alley School had mastered a set of optimal methods to unlock potential.”

“It’s likely that the children from Cuiliu Alley School will perform exceptionally well in tomorrow’s Awakening Ceremony.”

Su Jingzhen spoke with a calm tone, with a hint of teasing.

There was no trace of the tension and fear that others thought he should have.

He was showing off his strength to the enemy.

With unequal identities, but with such fearlessness and composure, it would only make everyone feel that Su Jingzhen had someone backing him up!

And that person was definitely not Zhang Xiu, a Qi refinement late-stage cultivator!

At this moment, some people’s understanding of Su Jingzhen began to waver.

Su Jingzhen suddenly became somewhat mysterious in their eyes.

They felt that this guy was not as simple as they thought.

It was clear that they were right.

Chen Chong still didn’t respond to this.

His face turned increasingly ugly.

Looking back at the records of Peach Blossom Alley School’s spiritual awakening, it seemed that the kids from Peach Blossom Alley School had incredibly good luck.

But if one thought about it, what if it wasn’t luck, but Su Jingzhe was really capable?

If this were true, wouldn’t it be exactly what Su Jingzhen wanted?

In front of everyone, with all eyes on them, there was no room for retreat.

He could only follow Su Jingzhen’s way of doing things.

But if he lost, Chen Chong absolutely couldn’t accept the consequences.

Today’s original plan was to take it one step at a time, pushing Su Jingzhen to the brink of death, and avenging Lin Ping’s death.

But damn it, how did the situation seem to be slipping into Su Jingzhen’s hands?

As Chen Chong thought about his next move…

Chen Jinshi took a sip of wine from his cup.

He stood up straight, his eyes fixed on Su Jingzhen for the first time.

He said calmly, “Merge your school with ours.”
