Chapter 39 Framed
Mingrun had just bought some meat from the foot of the mountain when he saw red flames rising into the sky above the sect.
He paused, then quickly flew over and just happened to see Bai Ruanruan accusing Jiang Zhi.
Jiang Zhi also realized that there was someone behind him. He turned around and saw Mingrun.
'The heroine will find time to frame you.'
"This heroine is really not a good person. She is just pretending to be innocent."
"Ding, admit that you bullied the little girl."
Jiang Zhi curled his lips and smiled: "Yes, I hit her on purpose, so what? Hit her back if you can."
She looked arrogant.
"Mission completed, accumulated two chances to draw a prize."
"Second Brother." Bai Ruanruan looked at Mingrun pitifully.
Mingrun was holding two pieces of meat in his hands. He walked over, glanced at the little girl, then retracted his gaze and looked at Bai Ruanruan: "This little girl is a divine beast, right? Your senior sister is only in the middle stage of Qi Refining, how can she beat her?"
He just took a glance at Jiang Zhi and knew that her cultivation had reached the middle stage of Qi Refining.
"Second Brother, is it possible that Xiaoruan would deliberately get injured to frame me?" Bai Ruanruan concealed the resentment in her eyes, her slender back trembling weakly and angrily.
A few cats walked up to Mingrun's clothes and meowed.
Bai Ruanruan clenched her palms slightly. She forgot that these cats were very smart.
Sure enough, Mingrun lowered his eyes to listen to the cat's cry, and then said softly: "They have seen the truth of the matter, do you still want to quibble?"
"But, but, Xiaoruan is injured so badly!" Bai Ruanruan bit her lip.
"The divine beast has a strong ability to recover, you don't have to worry." Mingrun stated the fact calmly.
Bai Ruanruan fell silent and silently carried the little girl back to the room.
Mingrun just shook his head helplessly.
"This is a little different from what I imagined. Senior brother should be blaming me with disappointment in his eyes."
'According to the plot, even if someone witnessed it, they would think that the little girl didn't do it on purpose, and would wonder how could I be so vicious to bully a little girl.'
"After all, the backup brothers are all blind."
Mingrun turned his eyes to look at Jiang Zhi, his eyes full of worry: "Go change your clothes quickly."
Jiang Zhi was stunned for a moment, then responded, "Okay."
Mingrun was thinking, has Junior Sister Zhizhi been often misunderstood in the past? Otherwise, she would not have even explained it just now and was sure that she was being wronged.
Jiang Zhi returned to the house and changed her clothes. She wore a light yellow ancient costume long skirt and a jade slip hanging around her waist. She still tied her hair into a high ponytail because she didn't know how to do other complicated hairstyles. In the past, servants would tie her hair at home.
She had a lot of clothes because her stepmother never tired of buying her a lot of clothes, in all kinds of styles and colors.
Jiang Zhi then began to feel a little homesick.
However, after smelling the aroma of meat, this emotion disappeared in an instant.
Jiang Zhi happily went to the kitchen.
When it was time for dinner, Mingrun still went to call Bai Ruanruan.
The two people who were just arguing with each other are now sitting together for dinner, but the atmosphere doesn't seem right.
The little girl should be recuperating in the room and has not come out.
Jiang Zhi was too lazy to care. Without the system tasks, she really didn't care about the heroine. She looked at Mingrun and said, "Second Brother, I'm already in the middle stage of Qi Refining. Can I learn spells?"
I don’t know what the difference is between the spells taught by the master and those given by the system.
"Well, I'll take you to the library later to pick out the secret book that suits your spiritual roots." Mingrun nodded gently.
There was a hollow sound of wind passing through the air at the door.
A tall figure holding a sword walked over.
The man was dressed in white, with an air of righteousness, sharp eyebrows and bright eyes. He had a steady and noble temperament.
Mingrun paused, stood up, and said, "Big Brother, you're back?"
Xiao Baiyu nodded, his dark eyes deep: "Well, you have worked hard during this period."
Mingrun understood and asked, "Did the master ask you to come back and bring people with you?"
"Well, I'll be back for a few months." Xiao Baiyu spoke slowly, looking at the two girls and introducing himself, "Hello, my name is Xiao Baiyu, and I'm your senior brother."
"Bai Ruanruan has met Senior Brother."
"My name is Jiang Zhi, hello, Senior Brother."
Xiao Baiyu seemed to be a stern person. He just nodded slightly, then sat next to Mingrun and asked about his recent situation.
Jiang Zhi continued to eat.
"How is their cultivation?" Xiao Baiyu asked.
"They are both in the middle stage of Qi Refining." Mingrun answered gently, "Junior Sister Bai has already entered the Book Pavilion to choose spells. Junior Sister Jiang has just entered the middle stage of Qi Refining. I plan to take her to the Book Pavilion to choose spells that suit her spiritual roots."

"Okay, I'll take care of the rest." Xiao Baiyu nodded.
Mingrun also responded with relief.
The eldest senior brother has rich experience and can lead the two younger sisters well.
Bai Ruanruan had already chosen a spell, so she went back first.
Xiao Baiyu stood behind Jiang Zhi with the sword in his hands, waiting for her to finish her meal.
Jiang Zhi felt a little embarrassed while eating. It seemed not good to make others wait for him.
She was just a little embarrassed, but it didn't stop her from eating her meal.
Xiao Baiyu was also very patient and waited until she was full.
"Let's go to the library." Xiao Baiyu said lightly.
"Okay." Jiang Zhi stood up and followed Xiao Baiyu.
This young man has a steady temperament and an extremely broad back.
"Xiao Baiyu, let me look for him. Oh, he was a sword-bone man who died in the Cave of Hundred Ghosts."
"Zundu, fake du, died in the cave of a hundred ghosts because of saving the heroine?"
"I will remain calm and wait and see. I don't believe that this person can die in the Cave of Hundred Demons when the plot is so broken."
"It seems that several brothers in this sect have the basics of refining weapons, but their specialties are different. The eldest brother practices swordsmanship, the second brother practices alchemy..."
"Well, each died in a different way."
Xiao Baiyu stopped and Jiang Zhi almost bumped into him. Fortunately, she became much more flexible after practicing and quickly stabilized her body.
He turned and looked at Jiang Zhi, without mentioning that Jiang Zhi seemed to be cursing him behind his back.
He said in a businesslike manner: "I heard from Master that when you were tested, you only had two spiritual roots of fire and wood. Why do you have seven spiritual roots now?"
Jiang Zhi paused, then said after a moment of silence: "I have grown a few more after returning to the sect. Do you believe it?"
Xiao Baiyu paused. He naturally didn't believe it. Spiritual roots are like talents. Whatever spiritual roots you are born with, that's what you will have for the rest of your life.
No matter what, Jiang Zhi’s spiritual roots are now the most useless of the seven spiritual roots.
He was surprised that the girl was not sad at all after changing from two spiritual roots to seven spiritual roots.
"Seven Spiritual Roots are difficult to cultivate." Xiao Baiyu said, "You must be mentally prepared for your future journey of cultivating immortals."
"Yeah, I know." Jiang Zhi nodded.
Combining the Heavenly Spiritual Body with the most useless seven spiritual roots can only be said to be a little easier to cultivate than simply cultivating the seven spiritual roots, but it is still difficult to cultivate.
