One month later.
Lanzhou City.
"Brother Zhong, I can cultivate spiritual power again!"
In a remote courtyard in Lanzhou City, a burly man was practicing swordplay in the courtyard. Another petite man with a round face jumped out of the room with an excited look on his face.
"Congratulations to Immortal Zhao."
He Zhong sheathed his sword and congratulated him.
"Hey." Zhao Min showed dissatisfaction instead: "I told you that you don't need to call me Immortal Master. You are my savior. Just call me Zhao Min."
Zhao Min continued: "Brother Zhong, when I recover my mana, can I look back?"
He Zhong thought for a moment.
He shook his head and said: "We still don't know what the situation is at Jiuyao Temple, and we don't know whether Miss Bei returned to the temple safely or if something else happened. In my opinion, it's best to wait patiently and see if there is any news about Miss Bei. Come on."
"Brother Zhong is right."
Zhao Min nodded and said with a smile: "I listen to Brother Zhong."
He Zhong had a smile on his face.
In his heart, he was secretly angry.
...
A month ago, he originally planned to take Zhao Min away anyway. No matter whether He Bei was dead or alive, he would take Zhao Min far away and never let He Bei find him again.
But I didn't expect it.
Before He Bei left.
With a drop of Zhao Min's blood on the so-called soul-seeking plate, He Zhong was asked to take Zhao Min to find a place to hide it, and she could find it through the soul-seeking plate in the future.
He Zhong was so angry that he almost drew his sword and killed He Bei on the spot.
Then He Bei successfully returned to Jiuyao Temple during the subsequent escape. To be precise, Qian Feibai chased him halfway. When he was approaching the boundary of Jiuyao Temple, he did not dare to pursue him anymore and ran away instead.
Has a "parasitic eye" perspective.
He Zhong is very aware of He Bei's current situation, because He Bei's lawsuit against Qian Feibai is shocking, and Qian Feibai's family has certain influence in Jiuyaoguan.
So He Bei is now under custody.
On the one hand there is protection, on the other hand there is surveillance.
Just in case, He Bei did not expose the locations of He Zhong and Zhao Min.
And He Zhong took Zhao Min to another country in the south of Mo Country - Hengchuan Country.
According to He Bei.
Zhao Min was fed a pill called "Spirit Fusion Pill", which completely drained the spiritual power in her body, so until today, she was so excited after finally cultivating her spiritual power again.
night.
He Zhong cooked himself and made a sumptuous dinner, six dishes and one soup.
Fried chicken gourd, stir-fried fish fillets, osmanthus scallops, minced meat sesame cakes, braised fresh mushrooms, sweet and sour fish rolls and a red date and American ginseng chicken soup.
It tastes great and the alluring aroma fills the entire house.
Zhao Min sat at the table early, eagerly watching He Zhong bring the dishes one after another in front of him, looking left and right like a small animal.
"You can just eat first, there is no need to wait for me."
Seeing Zhao Min's greedy look, He Zhong couldn't help but smile.
"no!"
Zhao Min shook his head and insisted: "We want to eat together."
He Zhong smiled and said nothing.
Soon, He Zhong also sat at the table, smiling as he watched Zhao Min devour the food.
"Brother Zhong, why do you cook so deliciously? Can you teach me!"
Zhao Min did not forget the well digger when he was drinking. He praised He Zhong gushingly and put the vegetables into He Zhong's bowl: "Brother Zhong, you can eat too."
He Zhong nodded: "Thank you very much."
These meals.
In addition to bringing the relationship closer between the two.
There is another special reason. There is a chronic poison in the food. It is a poison that is also effective for immortal cultivators. It can significantly reduce the cultivation speed of immortal cultivators.
He Zhong is now making two preparations.
First, Zhao Min's cultivation speed should not be too fast, so that she can stay for a long time and not have the desire to return to Jiuyao Guan due to the rapid recovery of her spiritual power.
Moreover.
Her storage bag was taken away by He Bei, and her strength was reduced by more than half. Even if she wanted to return to Jiuyao Temple, she would definitely need He Zhong's protection.
Get along for such a long time.
He Zhong may have an opportunity.
The second is to see if the soul-seeking plate is as magical as He Bei said.
If He Bei couldn't find Zhao Min's location, then with his methods, Zhao Min would naturally be at his mercy.
But if He Bei really comes.
It was not time for him to alert the enemy now and attack Zhao Min directly.
"Miss Zhao."
At the dinner table, He Zhong asked casually: "When you and Miss Bei chased that guy Lu Tong, you clearly had a soul-seeking plate, so why did he escape so many times?"
This period of time.
Under He Zhong's cliché, Zhao Min had already told He Zhong everything from accepting the mission to how to find Lu Tong, so it didn't seem out of the blue for him to ask this.
"It must be Qian Feibai and Liu Wenhan." Zhao Min said angrily while eating.
"Senior Sister He only has a ninth-grade soul-seeking plate. There are many elixirs and talismans in the world of immortality that can block the aura. Lu Tong must have blocked the aura first, and then they used methods to mislead the tracking of the soul-seeking plate."
"That's it."
He Zhong suddenly understood and nodded slightly.
Then he asked: "Is this kind of breath-blocking item common?"
"That's not true."
Zhao Min shook his head: "But Qian Feibai and Liu Wenhan must have it."
Suddenly, she looked at He Zhong and asked doubtfully: "Brother Zhong, why do you ask this?"
"Just ask."
"Just ask."
He Zhong smiled and explained: "I really envy you immortal cultivators, so I am a little curious."
He was secretly alert.
You still have to be careful and don't show your flaws easily.
Fortunately, this was Zhao Min and he could still be fooled. If He Bei were here instead, he might be suspicious.
"Why......"
Zhao Min really didn't think much about it.
Instead, he sighed softly and said with deep regret: "It's a pity that Brother Zhong has no spiritual roots and cannot cultivate immortality."
...
that's all.
Zhao Min and He Zhong temporarily settled down in this small town in Hengchuan called Lanzhou City.
They live in simplicity.
Zhao Min practiced day and night, while He Zhong practiced swordsmanship.
While He Zhong gradually became closer to Zhao Min.
But it is obvious that when the relationship between them reaches a certain level, a gap will inevitably appear.
The gap between immortal cultivators and mortals.
Essentially.
Although Zhao Min thanked He Zhong for his life-saving kindness, she kept a sufficient distance, and except for He Zhong, she never bothered to talk to other mortals.
Zhao Min was born in a declining family of cultivators.
She has been trained as an immortal cultivator since she was a child. Although she is a little simpler than He Bei, her attitude towards mortals is even worse.
This also made He Zhong give up the idea of using time to influence her.
Instead, he started to think carefully.
Thinking about how to have no worries and completely control Zhao Min.
The only thing that needs to be resolved now.
It’s He Bei...
