If I hadn't been careful and resisted taking those elixirs, the consequences would have been disastrous.
On that day, she deliberately pointed out the Wan family, causing Xiang Wenli to change his mind temporarily. The act of giving the elixir to him should have been a spur of the moment decision, but he could take out the poison elixir at will.
Combined with the pill bottle given by Fourteen, it is not difficult to guess that these elixirs are a means for Xiang Wenli to control the elite.
The elder from the Merit Hall said that Soul Sound Grass was rare and must be very valuable. The fact that it could be used so lavishly on so many people proved that Xiang Wenli had easy access to Soul Sound Grass.
In that case, does Xiang Wenli have other opportunities?
Thinking of this, Xiang Sheng's eyes flickered with light and regained clarity.
That's all.
It’s too early to think about these things now. Just keep the account in mind and settle it later.
She quickly cleared her mind and opened the cover to study "Three True Methods".
There are many incomplete mental methods, but Xiang Sheng only likes this one.
In addition to being cheap, the true energy cultivated through this method is hidden and not easily detected, and can be nurtured in the body. Over time, its power is also quite considerable. The only drawback is that the true energy circulates slowly.
Once the true energy slows down, the attacks will also slow down.
However, for the sake of the two previous advantages, Xiang Sheng felt that this defect was tolerable.
…
In the blink of an eye, two months passed.
Except for taking a walk around Dangchen Peak late at night, Xiang Sheng spent the rest of his time studying his mental skills without sleep or food, and his cultivation gradually got on the right track.
Without the help of elixirs, she persevered for two months and finally reached the first level of Qi training.
On the day of her breakthrough, her strength increased, her gait became lighter, and her body suddenly grew taller, so that her original robes could no longer fit her.
The news soon reached Qinji's ears.
Qin Ji was extremely satisfied with Xiang Sheng's performance in the past two months. He thought that Xiang Sheng was eating well and growing faster, so he ordered someone to bring over a few larger-sized robes and then ignored him.
Xiang Sheng breathed a sigh of relief and did not exchange the elixir. He continued to practice breathing in the spiritual energy in the mountains.
I haven't shown up for two months, and the elder in the Merit Hall is probably cursing me. However, it's not honorable to increase one's contribution in disguise. I've been hiding, so it's impossible for the elder to come to me openly.
No one knew whether the elders of the Merit Hall were anxious, but there was another group of people who were getting anxious right now.
"It's been two months and you haven't done anything yet. What are you doing?!"
The young man in the courtyard was dressed in a blue robe and stared at the servant kneeling in front of him with a gloomy expression.
"Master, calm down!"
The kneeling old servant in gray looked flustered and kowtowed repeatedly, "It's not that I didn't want to take action, but Xiang Sheng never left the house, so I couldn't wait for the opportunity!"
"Useless! How dare you talk back?"
The young man was furious and picked up the teapot at hand and smashed it on the old servant's forehead, causing blood to flow immediately.
The old servant was silent as a cicada, and did not dare to wipe the blood from his eyes.
The young man let out his anger, and the fury on his face subsided a little. He said slowly, "If she doesn't go out, won't you find a chance to come to her house and do it?"
The old servant looked up with his eyes wide open, "Master, you want to kill me! That is the residence of the inner disciples. If I force my way in, I will be violating the dignity of the inner disciples and I will surely die."
"Gray Slave, the older you get, the less courageous you become."
The young man snorted and spoke in a cold voice, "That senior brother told me personally that Xiang Hongyu had received a secret order from the sect and was to accompany a true disciple to the Kingdom of Lu. He won't be back for at least half a year. Go ahead and do it. Once you succeed, I will immediately arrange for someone to pick you up and allow you to retire from the mountain and enjoy your old age. Don't be ungrateful."
Hearing the words "go down the mountain," the gray servant's dull eyes immediately lit up. "Master, are you serious?"
"Um?"
The young man gave the servant a cold look, and he trembled immediately. He didn't dare to ask any more questions, but bowed and kowtowed, "This old servant obeys your order!"
After the gray servant bent down and retreated, the young man flicked his sleeves and sat down again, unable to hide the hatred in his eyes.
"Xiang Hongyu, this is just the interest. We'll settle the rest of the bill slowly when you come back!"
…
"I heard that you and Guan Yuanzhi have become enemies?"
Amidst the vast white clouds, you can see a spiritual boat breaking through the clouds.
On the front deck of the spirit boat cabin, an ordinary-looking young man stood with his hands behind his back. He looked tall and slender in his black robe, and the cuffs of the robe were embroidered with golden flaming cloud patterns, which fully demonstrated his noble status.
Xiang Hongyu, who was standing behind him, was slightly startled when he heard this. He immediately replied respectfully, "Brother, this is a misunderstanding. Brother Guan..."
Before he could finish his words, the young man in black raised his hand to interrupt him: "No need to explain, but I must remind you that Guan Yuanzhi is narrow-minded and has someone backing him. You are a newcomer to the inner sect and your foundation is weak. Be careful not to get yourself into trouble."
At this point, the young man in black smiled slightly, "Before you left, I heard that you took your younger sister, who you depended on for survival when you were young, into the sect to take care of her. That's great."
