174 To be a superior person, one must have both beauty and fragrance.

The atmosphere was too heavy and no one spoke in the courtyard for a long time.

Until Wuxin put his hands together and chanted a Buddhist verse, breaking the silence in the courtyard: "There is always a time for gathering and separation, so don't be too sad."

Zhao Shi came back to his senses, put away the emotions swirling in his eyes, and asked Wu Xin in a hoarse voice: "Master, do you know the Qiao family in Xizhou?"

Wu Xin thought about it and said uncertainly: "I have heard of a Qiao family, but I don't know if it is the same Qiao family that you are referring to. The head of the Qiao family I heard of is named Qiao Shang."

Because Qiao Ye fell into the trap, Zhao Shi had already learned a lot of information about the Qiao family from him.

Now I am asking Wuxin because I want to get more information from different angles to be absolutely sure.

Qiao Shang is Qiao Yuan's biological father and the current patriarch of the Qiao family, with the cultivation level at the Nascent Soul stage.

However, according to Qiao Ye, as he gets older and his deadline is approaching, Qiao Shang is now in seclusion for a long time, trying to break through to the fusion stage.

All matters of the Qiao family were handed over to the eldest son, Qiao Yanbo.

Qiao Yanbo is Qiao Ye's biological father and Qiao Yuan's biological brother. In terms of blood relationship, he is Zhao Shi's uncle.

But it was this uncle who, when he learned that Zhaoshi was still alive, personally refined his own sister into a magical weapon to find people.

"Master, do you know what realm the most powerful cultivator in the Qiao family is at?" Lin Yan asked.

Wu Xin shook his head: "I don't know. But the Qiao family is a great family that has stood in Xizhou for thousands of years. Although they have declined in recent years, I guess they have at least one cultivator in the Fusion Stage."

Qiao Ye’s cultivation is insufficient. Although he has two good spiritual roots, his aptitude for cultivation is average and his knowledge of the clan’s secrets is limited.

He only knew that the Qiao family had an ancestor who had a high level of cultivation, but he didn't know what level of cultivation it was.

Even as the Qiao family was declining, this ancestor had never been seen taking action, which made Qiao Ye suspect that the ancestor had already passed away.

Hearing Wu Xin's confident tone, Jiang Xiao asked curiously, "Why do you guess so?"

Wuxin's gaze moved down following the voice and fell on Jiangxiao.

Although he had talked to Jiang Xiao in the restaurant last time, for some reason, when he saw this child again, Wu Xin always felt that there was an indescribable feeling about this child.

It was as if the child wasn't really there.

Do you want to use your third eye to take a look?

This thought flashed through his mind, and Wu Xin suddenly felt creepy, so he quickly dismissed the idea.

Over the past two days, as if out of his survival instinct, he subconsciously ignored the child's existence.

This was his intuition telling him to do something.

If one really used the Heavenly Eye to observe this child, he would probably die without a burial place.

Wuxin observed several people from Tianshui Sect and found that they all got along well with Jiangxiao. They probably haven't noticed this yet.

Sometimes ignorance is bliss.

Jiang Xiao had no grudges and should have no ill will towards them. Wu Xin felt relieved and answered his question: "When I was begging for alms at the Qiao family, I heard the beggars at their door say that the most talented young lady in the history of the Qiao family, Qiao Yuan..."

Having said that, he unconsciously stopped and looked at Zhao Shi.

Although Lin Yan and others did not say some things, with Wu Xin's understanding, it is not impossible to guess them.

But since the other party didn't say anything, he just pretended not to know.

Zhao Shi's eyes moved, but he didn't say anything. He just looked at Wu Xin nervously.

After making sure that he didn't mind her talking about this, Wu Xin continued, "Miss Qiao once wanted to join the Tianshui Sect, but her parents didn't allow it, fearing that the Tianshui Sect would hinder their daughter's path to becoming an immortal."

Everyone was stunned and understood where Wu Xin's speculation came from.

The Tianshui Sect has been famous for a long time. Although its reputation in the outside world is strange, it is still respected by thousands of cultivators.

Even if one cannot join the Tianshui Sect, as long as one can pass the Tianshui Sect's entrance examination, one will have something to brag about in the cultivation world.

However, the Qiao family looked down on the Tianshui Sect.

The six major immortal gates, the imperial court and some super sects all know that the immortal gates have cultivators in the Tribulation Crossing Stage, but the outside world only knows that the immortal gates have cultivators in the Fusion Stage at most.

After Taoist Master Zhuyue was promoted to the Tribulation Crossing Stage, he abdicated smoothly to enjoy his retirement and rarely appeared in the eyes of outsiders.

Many people still believe that he, the former leader of the Tianshui Sect, has passed away, and that he was in the fusion stage until his death.

Monks in the Fusion Stage are rare, but not as rare as those in the Tribulation Stage. Some aristocratic families and powerful sects have monks in the Fusion Stage.

The fact that the Qiao family looks down on the Tianshui Sect shows that they at least have equal combat power in the outside world's perception.

The outside world already knows that the Tianshui Sect's combat power is quite terrifying.

Chu Linfeng hissed, "Should we hire another helper? Is Senior Brother done with his work?"

Ning Yao went to do the sect's mission with other senior brothers and sisters, so he did not go with them this time.

Lin Yan felt that it was useless for the senior brother to come, as he was only in the Jindan stage.

Seeing that the brothers were all a little frustrated, Jiang Xin raised her little fist to cheer them up: "Brothers, don't be scared, I'm here to protect you!"

[Xinxin, I’m a super good fighter!] 】

All the fellow disciples are aware of this, but Jiang Xin’s fighting ability is unstable, so they cannot rely entirely on her.

Moreover, Zhao Shi wanted to take revenge on his own.

He rubbed Jiang Xin's little head and said nothing.

Through those bony hands, Jiang Xin could clearly feel Zhao Shi's sadness.

It was the longing for his mother, the hatred for his own weakness, and the hatred for the Qiao family.

Jiang Xin felt so distressed that she hugged Zhao Shi's legs tightly and raised her round little face to comfort him: "Fourth Brother, people cannot be blinded by hatred and cannot fall into the quagmire of pain. You must be clear-minded."

Wu Xin nodded: "Donor Jiang is right."

Jiang Xin clenched her fists and said angrily: "So let's go and kill the Qiao family now."

Wu Xin, who was about to agree out of habit, was stuck for a moment. He looked at Jiang Xin and didn't know how to continue: "You call this the enlightenment of thoughts?"

Jiang Xin nodded, and said with reason: "Now that my enemy is dead, I feel relieved and my thoughts are naturally clear."

Wu Xin sighed and educated Jiang Xin earnestly: "Little donor, do you know what is the most important thing in life?"

Jiang Xin: “It’s the timing.”

Wu Xin didn't react for a long time: "What temperature?"

Even if you say, "The most important thing in life is to be happy," he will understand.

Jiang Xin pointed to the kitchen in the courtyard and said seriously: "If the fire is too high, the meat will be overcooked. If the fire is too low, the meat will not be cooked. Therefore, the most important thing in life is the fire. The second is the ratio of oil, salt, sauce and vinegar. It should not be too salty or too spicy. To be a superior person, you need to have good color, fragrance and taste."

This time, not only Wu Xin, but also Lin Yan, Zhao Shi, Chu Linfeng and Jiang Xiao were stunned.

Chu Linfeng asked cautiously: "Junior Sister, are you talking about being a human being or cooking?"

Jiang Xin asked in confusion: "Is there any difference? Aren't humans just vegetables?"

Chu Linfeng and his companions from the human race: "..."

If we didn't know you were planning to eat someone, we would have thought you were cursing.
