Immortality begins with the sword of ignorance

The exhaustion caused by extreme training made Zhong Cang feel depressed and had a lot of random thoughts.

Fortunately, there was no need for him to think, Uncle Shui quickly called Zhong Cang over and directly explained the reason why Flame Spirit Butterfly did not come.

"Inspired by you, the young lady went to a secret place to practice a treasure technique. During this period, she will not come here again."

"...Thank you, senior, for informing me."

Zhong Cang who spoke was a little depressed. If the Flame Spirit Butterfly didn't come, his source of spiritual stones would be gone.

‘It seems that during this period, we should save our time on cultivation...or take the initiative and find some more clients? '

Just when Zhong Cang frowned and planned the way forward, Uncle Shui, who had explained the matter, did not leave, but gave Zhong Cang some spiritual stones.

"???"

"The lady asked me to give these to you."

"Uh...I can't have this."

Although Yan Lingdie had given him a lot before, no matter what Zhong Cang said, he was still working.

His sparring also helped Yan Lingdie's growth, so he felt at ease when he took the spirit stone.

Taking it now for nothing and eating a soft meal is not in line with Zhong Cang's state of mind, and it will make him feel that he is inferior to the low flame spirit butterfly, so he is unwilling to accept it.

Seeing the spirit stone without being ignorant, this subconscious reaction made Uncle Shui very satisfied with Zhong Cang's character.

Because of this, he even wanted to recruit Zhong Cang as Yan Lingdie's subordinate... He watched Yan Lingdie grow up since he was a child, and the long-term care of Yan Lingdie made him develop a kind of affection for the lovely Yan Lingdie , I want her to have a good life.

In a big family, there are many resources and a lot of competition.

At the same time, in order to compete for resources, the children of big families must not only be strong themselves, but also have power and subordinates.

Zhong Cang has good talent and sufficient character. Therefore, Uncle Shui wants Zhong Cang to assist Flame Spirit Butterfly.

"Take it, these spiritual stones are not even a drop of rain to the Yan family."

"And you don't need to have any psychological burden. The lady gave you the spirit stone, not for nothing. She wants you to practice hard these days, and use the most perfect posture to deal with her who has returned."

"If you want to repay the eldest lady, work hard to improve yourself. The stronger you are, the more pressure you can put on the eldest lady and make her grow faster."

Hearing this, Zhong Cang fell silent and understood one more thing.

Flame Spirit Butterfly is indeed what she thought, she is a proud girl, she wants to defeat her strongest self to prove herself.

After thinking everything through, Zhong Cang stopped being pretentious and reached out to take the spirit stone.

After finishing what Yan Lingdie ordered, Uncle Shui nodded in satisfaction, but he didn't leave immediately, but said lightly: "Do you remember my proposal yesterday?"

After saying that, without waiting for Zhong Cang to respond, he waved his hand and said, "I'm not asking you to give an answer now, but I'm telling you something."

Speaking of this, his expression was somewhat reminiscent of memories, and he even sighed: "I know your ambition. You feel that your swordsmanship talent is good, and you want to use it to become an inner disciple. In fact, when I was young, I also had the same feeling. ambition, but you know..."

Looking closely at Zhong Cang, Uncle Shui said with a somewhat miserable expression:

"The reason why inner disciples can sit on an equal footing with family disciples is because most of the inner disciples are disciples of cultivation families. If you want to become an inner disciple, you want to compete with a genius like Miss."

Uncle Shui, who had a strange expression, let Zhong Cang know that this man also had a past.

However, Zhong Cang didn't care about these things at this time, he asked nervously: "Most of the disciples of the inner sect are from the family... disciples from a poor family like us, can't become inner disciples?"

This is what Zhong Cang is most worried about.

He is not afraid of the high requirements for becoming an inner disciple, but is afraid of the solidification of the hierarchy within the Yunxiao Sect.

If this is really the case, it will be difficult for Zhong Cang to cross the hierarchy, because he will be the enemy of all those who benefit.

Fortunately, Uncle Shui's next words made Zhong Cang breathe a sigh of relief.

"That's not true. The inner sect of Yunxiao Sect is divided into the family faction and the master-student faction. The family faction is headed by the three clans and five surnames, and the master-student faction is respected by the three peaks. Half of the inner disciples are family children, and half are from the poor family with outstanding talents. Genius."

After saying that, he noticed that Zhong Cang breathed a long sigh of relief, and Uncle Shui snorted coldly: "Don't be too happy too early, you don't know how powerful the family's children are... In a few days, the young lady will return. By then, She will let you know how terrifying it will be for the children of the family who have both resources and talents."

"Only a true talent among hundreds of thousands of people can be on an equal footing with them. The swordsmanship talent you rely on is nothing in front of the children of aristocratic families, and it is also fragile in the eyes of a true talent!"

Having been defeated at the hands of family members and true geniuses, and having witnessed their horror, Uncle Shui did not feel that Zhong Cang, who was only talented in swordsmanship, could realize his ideal.

Zhong Cang did not argue with this.

Time will witness everything.

After explaining the matter, Uncle Shui left.

As for Zhong Cang, while playing with the spirit stone in his hand, he also understood the true reason why the Yan family gave him the spirit stone.

In other words, one of the reasons.

They have not given up the idea of ​​subduing themselves, and the people in the Yan family who are paying attention to them feel that the Flame Spirit Butterfly who has returned from training has the ability to crush them and break their arrogance.

Thinking like this, they would give the spirit stone. This is to show their generosity and make Zhong Cang feel that it is profitable to join them.

They also believe that Zhong Cang will become their subordinate sooner or later, and if they are given spiritual stones now, they will rot in the pot.

"So confident. It seems that the spell that Flame Spirit Butterfly is practicing this time is quite powerful. I have to prepare early... Wait, I seem to have advanced to the fourth level of Qi training."

"Also, I forgot to tell the Homura family about my advancement to the fourth level of Qi training."

Advancement is Zhong Cang's own business, so he doesn't need to tell others.

But he is a sparring partner. As a sparring partner, Zhong Cang needs to tell his employer what he is good at and what his strength is.

In this way, the employer will have an impression of your strength and decide whether to hire you.

Publicizing one's information in this way will make some people uncomfortable, but that's how work makes money.

Few people get pleasure from their work.

Compared to the spirit warriors who plant spiritual values ​​in the ground year after year, or the monks who risk their lives to venture into the Yunwu Daze, Zhong Cang's announcement of his own information is not a big deal at all.

After all, in his previous life, he made his own information into a resume and submitted countless copies.

"Furthermore, if it can be ensured that it will not be used during sparring, practitioners can also conceal their own information."

This is indeed a method, but Zhong Cang did not hide the need to improve his cultivation.

He has been in the late third level of Qi training for a long time, and it is not incredible to break through to the fourth level of Qi training.

However, after a night of hard training and no crisis, Zhong Cang's spirit was extremely tired and sluggish.

He forgot to mention it.

After looking at the direction Uncle Shui flew away and thinking that he couldn't get in through the inner door where Yan's family was located, Zhong Cang gave up on the idea of ​​telling him immediately.

"Forget it, let's wait until we see the Flame Spirit Butterfly in a few days."

"Furthermore, didn't Uncle Shui say... If you want to repay Flame Spirit Butterfly, you must work hard to improve yourself. The stronger I am, the more pressure I can put on this young lady and make her grow faster... And those The eldest lady also wants to defeat the more powerful me, so that she can have a sense of accomplishment."

"Because of this, I have advanced to the fourth level of Qi training, which is a good thing for her... I guess, right?"
