Chapter 558 Outbreak of Plague



As Zhen Xin spoke, she carefully observed Fang Ruotang's expression, making sure that Fang Ruotang did not show any displeasure because of her words.

After hesitating for a moment, he continued.

"And that female cultivator, I don't want to let her go either. If she hadn't deliberately delayed, I wouldn't have had my spiritual root destroyed."

As long as her spiritual root is still intact, she doesn't think that a mere change of heart by her Daoist partner will have much of a impact on her. In the end, if she wants to take revenge, she will drag them both down with her. Even though she hasn't experienced those things, she can imagine that it must be because her spiritual root was destroyed and she had no will to live.

It wasn't about love or romance, and it wasn't for some so-called man, a corrupt man whose heart had changed—he's not even worth mentioning.

Fang Ruotang saw the seriousness in Zhen Xin's words and immediately gave the female cultivator's name without pausing. She then took out the image stone and displayed the female cultivator's image.

"This is what she looks like, don't mistake her for someone else. She's a really bad person. She's actually got her eye on Chen Bei and is deliberately clinging to him. They're not like-minded at all. She doesn't have any grudges to settle; she's just trying to steal a man. This time, you're not going to be with Chen Bei anymore. It's not good for you to just kill them directly. It's better to use a scheme. Anyway, this woman is of bad character and she's easy to fool, and this man has a lot of enemies."

Fang Ruotang enthusiastically offered suggestions.

This was something Zhen Xin never expected.

She asked in surprise, "Doesn't the sect leader think what I'm doing is wrong?"

"No way! They hurt you, so it's perfectly normal for you to want revenge, isn't it?"

"But nothing happened..."

"That's because I was here. I happened to be passing by today and happened to see you, which is how I foresaw your future. If I hadn't taken this path or hadn't looked at you, wouldn't your future have been ruined?"

Fang Ruotang is simple-minded, so many people like to restrict her.

Actually, she doesn't like this kind of thing. Why does she have to wait until someone hurts her before she takes revenge?

Knowing the other person's character and knowing that if it weren't for some chance encounter, this person would definitely harm her in the future, why couldn't she strike first?

Is it because the future has changed?

Fang Ruotang didn't quite understand this logic, but fortunately, she rarely encountered such a choice in her life; so far, it had only happened once.

"Thank you, Sect Master. I will be careful and will never cause any trouble for the sect."

"What trouble or not? If you've been bullied, our sect will be your support. If you encounter anything you can't handle, go find your master."

"Okay, thank you, Sect Master."

Zhen Xin breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.

She wasn't in a hurry to retaliate against this grudge that hadn't even happened yet, but she would keep an eye on these two people, and if they made any mistakes, she would definitely step in and kick them while they were down, until she crushed them to death.

For cultivators, severing someone's spiritual root is more serious than killing their parents. After all, there are many ruthless cultivators who kill their fathers, mothers, husbands, wives, and children.

No matter how deviant or mad a person may be, they will not destroy their spiritual roots or sever their foundation.

"Alright, we just got back. Everyone's worked hard. Go to the mission hall to hand in your missions, then head back and get some rest!"

Fang Ruotang waved goodbye to everyone.

She skipped and hopped all the way back to the mountain peak. Before she even entered the courtyard, she ran into Huo Zhige, who was just coming out. Upon seeing Fang Ruotang, he took two steps forward, noticed her mood, and immediately asked her what was wrong.

Is there something happy about it?

"Yes, yes, I just did another good deed."

Fang Ruotang told Huo Zhige what had just happened.

Huo Zhige immediately flattered, saying, "Little Six, you're really amazing. You just went out for a walk and saved a disciple, preventing her from being ruined by a scumbag."

“Yes!” Fang Ruotang raised her chin.

She's quite enthusiastic about these kinds of trivial matters.

After all, being a young woman confined to her chambers and frail with a weak constitution, she really had nothing to do on a daily basis. It wasn't until she acquired the small mirror that her life suddenly became fulfilling.

The result was that I couldn't stop myself from secretly enjoying this kind of life, and suddenly I was very busy.

Where are you headed, and what are you doing?

"secret."

"Um?"

Fang Ruotang asked casually, but didn't get an answer, which piqued her interest.

[Little Mirror, where is he going?]

[He secretly learned how to cook a dish and now goes to the plant garden. What do you think he'll do?]

Oh, so you're just going to cook for me!

Fang Ruotang looked at Huo Zhige meaningfully.

"Alright! It's a secret then. Go ahead and get busy!"

Huo Zhige could tell from Fang Ruotang's expression and eyes that she must have secretly asked Xiao Jingzi behind his back.

He didn't prepare any so-called surprise, grabbed Fang Ruotang who was about to turn and leave, and pushed her forward with his hands on her shoulders.

"It's too late. You'll have to come with me now."

"Alright! I'll go."

Fang Ruotang had nothing better to do anyway, so she didn't object.

However, he couldn't help but mutter something under his breath.

"They're all secretly making progress, and you're the only one not doing your job properly. Aren't you afraid that your cultivation will fall far behind theirs in the end?"

"I'm not afraid, being with you is more important."

They work in shifts not only at night, but also during the day when they are with Fang Ruotang; they don't all disappear to go into seclusion for cultivation.

However, Fang Ruotang didn't allow them to follow her within the sect, so Huo Zhige didn't wander around the sect with her today. Instead, he went to the kitchen to research food.

"Would you like to go check out the Foundation Establishment Platform later? Some disciples will be establishing their foundations today. Besides, didn't you think the Foundation Establishment Platform at Sword Pavilion was too small and wanted to expand it? We just happened to mine some spirit stones this time, so let's use some of them to expand the platform first?"

"Alright! But I won't go see it. There's nothing to see. You handle this. I'll go check on the situation with Sect Leader Zhuang and the others later."

Fang Ruotang never cared about the expansion of the sect. She just knew that there was such a thing, not only the Foundation Establishment Platform, but also the Scripture Pavilion.

The library has also been expanded, since Little Mirror has so many secret techniques, and can even get his hands on secret techniques cultivated by other sects.

However, these are all in the small mirror, and have already been copied. For the time being, only Huo Zhige and the other six are allowed to copy them, so the process is not fast.

"Okay, I'll go with you."

"Okay! I'll go after I eat."

The two picked some spiritual vegetables in the spiritual plant garden and then went to the kitchen to cook.

Fang Ruotang herself couldn't be of much help, but in order not to appear as if she was just freeloading, she called Da Mei out to start a fire. What could have been solved with a simple spell took half a day.

Huo Zhige also spoiled her and let her do whatever she wanted.

After all, the two of them have already reached this point and can abstain from grains long ago, so there is no need for them to eat.

"Sect Master, something has happened in Gudong County. I can't leave right now, so please send a disciple to check on the situation."

After Lu Jiangting finished speaking, Fang Ruotang realized who the other person was.

Holding the communication talisman, she asked in confusion, "Isn't Gudong County a mortal city originally under the jurisdiction of your Tiangang Sect? What happened?"

"A plague has suddenly broken out there. All those infected will lose their minds and turn into monsters that only know how to bite. Please send a disciple to investigate, Sect Master."
