"What's wrong? Still so resentful?" Jiang Wanwan looked at Lin Weiguo, who was dressed up carefully, and a sense of doubt arose in her heart.
"Really? I'm over a hundred years old, how could I possibly envy that kid dating?" Lin Weiguo puffed out his chest, trying to hide his true feelings.
However, his words seemed somewhat weak and powerless.
"Oh!" Jiang Wanwan's peach blossom eyes narrowed with a smile as she deliberately drew out the sound in response. She chuckled inwardly, finding Lin Weiguo's appearance utterly adorable.
Lin Weiguo blushed deeply at Jiang Wanwan's affected manner and quickly turned his head away, afraid that she would discover his embarrassment.
He frantically tried to find a topic to talk about, hoping to divert attention.
"Wanwan, I think the people in this village are all quite nice. We could consider letting them cultivate the Divine Dragon Scripture!"
After saying this, he seemed to have found a lifeline, immediately turned around and left, making an excuse to go help, and disappeared like the wind.
Jiang Wanwan stood there, watching his departing figure, a faint smile playing on her lips. However, his suggestion to have the villagers cultivate the *Divine Dragon Scripture* was indeed a good one.
In the days that followed, Jiang Wanwan and her two companions busily traveled between villages, assisting villagers on a large scale in repairing damaged houses and carefully tidying up fields cracked by the earthquake.
They used their strength and skills to gradually revive this village that had suffered severe damage.
As time went on, something amazing happened—due to the resurgence of spiritual energy, the crops replanted in the fields quickly took root, sprouted, and grew strong.
These tender green seedlings seem to have been imbued with life, displaying vigorous vitality. Under the sunlight, they shimmer and shine, as if foreshadowing a future harvest and hope.
All these changes delighted the villagers, filling them with confidence and anticipation for the future. Seeing their hard-earned land revitalized, every face beamed with joy.
One month later.
"Thank you so much! We really don't know how to thank you enough!" the village chief said excitedly, his eyes sparkling with gratitude, and the wrinkles on his face appearing even deeper with his smile!
A large amount of fresh fruits and vegetables were laid out on the ground in front of Jiang Wanwan and the other two. These were the recent harvest of the village. The village chief had sent people to pick them early in the morning, intending to give them to Jiang Wanwan and the others.
"Village chief, please take these things back with you. We have already abstained from grains and no longer need food. But we appreciate your kindness!"
Although everything in the village has now been restored, there is still a shortage of supplies and food, so Jiang Wanwan politely declined with a smile.
As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Wanwan waved her hand, and a huge light screen appeared in mid-air, playing a recorded video of the "Divine Dragon Scripture." This sudden scene astonished the surrounding villagers, who stared wide-eyed at the screen.
"Village Chief, this is the divine-level cultivation technique of my Free and Unfettered Sect, the Divine Dragon Scripture. This technique is not limited by individual aptitude; anyone who is not extremely wicked can cultivate it. This video will be played repeatedly for a month. I hope you can seize this rare opportunity to study and cultivate it diligently," Jiang Wanwan patiently explained to the village chief, her tone firm and confident.
The village chief was moved to tears, repeatedly thanking Jiang Wanwan and the others, and promising to lead the villagers in their cultivation.
On the other side...
Huang Sicong held Zhixiu's hands tightly, looking at her with reluctance in his eyes.
"Xiu! Are you really not coming to the Free and Unfettered Sect with me? If you come with me, I guarantee you'll get the best cultivation resources and guidance. Plus, we can stay together forever and never have to be apart again."
Zhixiu hesitated upon hearing this, but she knew she currently lacked cultivation. If she rashly followed Huang Sicong to the Xiaoyao Sect, she would surely become a burden to him. So she gritted her teeth and resolutely shook her head.
"Brother Sicong, I can't go with you. I'll study the Divine Dragon Scripture with the villagers first. Once I have enough cultivation, I'll go to the Free and Unfettered Sect to take the assessment. Then I'll come find you!"
Although Huang Sicong was disappointed when he heard Jisoo say that, he respected her decision.
"Okay, then you must work hard in your cultivation. But you mustn't forget me."
After saying that, Huang Sicong held Jisoo's hand tightly again.
Zhixiu's face flushed red. She lowered her head and stammered, "Um... I won't forget you. Once I have cultivation, I'll go to the Xiaoyao Sect to find you."
Huang Sicong couldn't help but laugh when he saw Jisoo's shy expression. Then he gently stroked Jisoo's hair and said softly, "Then you have to remember to call me every day, or I won't feel at ease."
Jisoo nodded shyly and replied, "Okay!"
Just then, Lin Weiguo walked over, gently patted Huang Sicong on the shoulder, and ruthlessly interrupted the two, saying, "It's time to set off!"
Huang Sicong reluctantly let go of Zhixiu's hand, walking away while constantly looking back. Halfway there, he suddenly stopped, turned around, and shouted to Zhixiu, "Zhixiu! You must come to China to find me!"
Jisoo stood there, tears blurring her vision. She nodded forcefully and said, choking back sobs, "Sicong oppa, I will. You take good care of yourself too."
Afterwards, Jiang Wanwan and the other two flew away on their swords. Zhixiu and the villagers stood silently in place, unwilling to leave for a long time.
On the way back to the Free and Unfettered Sect, Lin Weiguo flew on his sword, while Jiang Wanwan and Huang Sicong sat cross-legged behind him.
On the flying sword, Jiang Wanwan looked at Huang Sicong, who had a disgusted expression, and asked curiously, "Do you like it that much?"
Huang Sicong rubbed his sore eyes and answered softly, "I like her! I've liked her for about ten years now. I almost missed out because I thought she was a boy!"
"Oh?" Jiang Wanwan's peach blossom eyes gleamed with gossip as she pressed on, "Then why not take her back to the Free and Unfettered Sect with you?"
Huang Sicong twitched the corner of his mouth and said with some helplessness, "Zhixiu said she wants to get into the Xiaoyao Sect through her own efforts. I know her, so I support her decision."
Jiang Wanwan hadn't expected that girl to be so ambitious. She figured she wouldn't do too badly in the future, no wonder this guy was so infatuated with her.
"Alright! When she gets into the Free and Unfettered Sect in the future, I'll give her a big gift to congratulate you!"
Upon hearing this, Huang Sicong's eyes lit up, instantly snapping out of his reluctance and asking curiously, "What amazing gift?"
Jiang Wanwan smiled mysteriously and revealed the secret.
However, Lin Weiguo, who was flying on his sword ahead, suddenly turned his head and said, "It is still unknown whether that little girl can cultivate. By the time she passes the test, who knows when?"
After hearing this, Huang Sicong burst into tears!
Jiang Wanwan…
