Chapter 204: Three Hundred Points
Small golden characters appeared in front of him.
Su Jingzhen’s heart was excited again.
He didn’t expect to reach the level of “Slight Fondness” with Xuening so quickly.
However, the events of tonight were indeed numerous, and it was understandable.
In any case, this was a good thing for Su Jingzhen.
The upcoming Alchemy Conference and various time periods would likely require him to work with Xuening for a long time.
The points he could obtain from her would naturally increase.
Moreover, Xuening was beautiful, gentle, quiet, and extremely simple.
On earth, she would be the perfect partner.
Su Jingzhen didn’t mind deepening his relationship with Xuening.He had already realized that in the cultivation world, strength was everything.
Most of his strength might rely on the people who had established emotional connections with him.
At this time, after the shock, Su Jingzhen saw Xuening’s slightly red eyes.
He subconsciously reached out to tidy up the scattered hair on her face, tucking it behind her ear.
“Don’t worry, this injury is nothing to me. At most, I just need to take a Rebirth Pill.”
Su Jingzhen smiled lightly.
However, as soon as he spoke, the two of them suddenly froze.
Then they looked at each other and laughed: “Right, we’re both alchemists, but we forgot to use our alchemy skills in a critical moment.”
Su Jingzhen let out a bitter laugh, and Xuening immediately took out a Rebirth Pill from her storage bracelet.
Su Jingzhen didn’t hesitate and took the pill.
The power of the pill instantly turned into a warm current flowing through his limbs.
Su Jingzhen only felt that the injured areas, under the power of the pill, had become warm and itchy.
The Rebirth Pill was a third-grade elixir, and although it wouldn’t immediately heal his injuries, it could at least promote the healing process.
After taking the Rebirth Pill, Su Jingzhen didn’t want to cultivate anymore.
He looked out the window and saw that the night was no longer so dark.
It was probably only half an hour before dawn.
Su Jingzhen looked around at their chaotic surroundings.
He looked at Xuening’s slightly tired expression.
“When dawn breaks, this crisis should be resolved.”
“No matter which faction is behind this, they shouldn’t dare to act brazenly in broad daylight, so we’ll probably attend the Alchemy Conference after dawn.”
“For now, Xuening, you should rest for a bit.”
As he spoke, Su Jingzhen patted his own shoulder.
“If you don’t mind, you can lean on my shoulder.”
He said this with a warm smile.
Xuening’s face grew even redder.
But she couldn’t deny that Su Jingzhen’s words made sense.
She also looked around and saw that the surroundings were indeed chaotic.
Her heart was a bit anxious, but she still leaned her head on Su Jingzhen’s shoulder.
At this moment, they had already escaped danger, and this intimate action made her heart beat faster.
【Emotional Connection+4】
【Emotional Connection+4】
【Remaining usable points: 267】
As soon as Xuening leaned on Su Jingzhen’s shoulder, the golden small characters flashed in front of him again.
…
The broken old room gradually quieted down.
Xuening, although anxious and shy, was overwhelmed by fatigue and soon fell asleep.
【Time left until the host’s Dantian shatters: 477 days!】
【Daily fixed points: Shuang Jiang: 15, Zhang Xiu: 4, Feng Qingya: 4, Luo Yuebai: 2, Xuening: 4】
【Remaining usable points: 296】
As the eastern sky gradually brightened, the daily fixed points arrived as scheduled.
“Just four points short!”
The remaining points were only four short of reaching the level to unlock the Tanzhong Acupoint.
Su Jingzhen’s heart was excited again, and he believed that these four points would arrive soon.
Perhaps today he could reach the Flesh Body Golden Embryo level!
Then he would be comparable to the Golden Core.
Once he reached the Flesh Body Golden Embryo, he would be considered a high-level expert in Qingzhou.
At least in situations like last night, he wouldn’t have to be so helpless.
He glanced at Xuening, who was still sleeping on his shoulder, her breathing steady and calm. Su Jingzhen’s mood was extremely calm.
However, he couldn’t let Xuening continue sleeping.
He didn’t know the specific situation outside, but with dawn breaking, the safety factor had increased significantly, and they had to attend the Alchemy Conference today.
Su Jingzhen slightly moved, preparing to wake Xuening up, and she opened her eyes in a daze.
“Ah, it’s already dawn!”
Xuening sat up from Su Jingzhen’s shoulder, her face flushing deeper.
“Su… Master Su, should we go find Sister Qingya?”
When he heard her words, Su Jingzhen smiled and nodded: “Calling me Master Su makes me seem old, I’m only a few years older than you, so if you don’t mind, just call me Brother Su.”
“Su… Brother Su…”
【Emotional Connection+4】
【Remaining usable points: 300】
Xuening had already reached the second emotional connection level, and Su Jingzhen, who had previously lacked four points, could easily obtain them.
With 300 points, he could now unlock the Tanzhong Acupoint at any time.
However, Su Jingzhen didn’t choose to unlock it immediately.
After all, they had temporarily escaped danger, and adding points to unlock the secret repositories was just a matter of time.
…
The incident at Spirit Sound Inn had fermented overnight, and by now, everyone in Yunmeng City knew about it.
Today’s discussion about Spirit Sound Inn had already surpassed the Alchemy Conference being held today.
After all, it had been many years since anyone had dared to provoke Spirit Sound Valley, a powerful force.
Spirit Sound Valley’s headquarters was not in Yunmeng City.
Apart from Grandma Yinhua, who had arrived last night, Spirit Sound Valley had sent two more Nascent Soul old monsters to the scene.
Because the people who had died at Spirit Sound Inn last night had backers who had already arrived.
Neither the Qi Yun City Lord’s Manor nor the Gao Family could compare to Spirit Sound Valley, but if they all united, they could give Spirit Sound Valley a hard time.
And to everyone’s disappointment, after a night of investigation, they had only discovered that Spirit Sound Inn was destroyed by two high-level explosive talismans.
But they had no idea who was behind it.
All traces had been erased by Spirit Sound Valley’s reaction.
Although they had discovered that Feng Qingya and her two alchemists had checked in and disappeared, all the cultivators in Yunmeng City could guess who was behind it.
But they had no direct evidence.
This made Spirit Sound Valley very anxious.
Even as the sun rose, the Feng Family was already preparing for the Alchemy Conference today.
All the participants of the Alchemy Conference were heading towards the floating island in the sky above Yunmeng City’s upper district.
