  “I’ll listen to you……” Xiong Qi Hua spoke with a weak and feeble tone.

  ……

  “Do you really have a Dual Main Spiritual Root?” After they arrived at the residential area reserved for the God Wind Academy, Deacon Liu Jian finally came to know that Ji Luo Fei and Zhu Mu Er both had a Dual Main Spiritual Root, and became even more excited. For a disciple to have a Dual Main Spiritual Root, not to mention inner court disciples, even some of the more outstanding core disciples may not have such qualifications.

  But Zhu Mu Er was the happiest among the group, “My father said several times to send me to a 5 Star Academy, but I did not listen to him, I wanted to rely on my own strength to enter a 5 Star Academy.”

  When Zhu Mu Er spoke, she completely forgot that the reason why she was able to enter the God Wind Academy was because of Ning Cheng’s help from before.

  “Your father?” Elder Liu Jian asked in a puzzled way, for someone to casually be able to send their kid to a 5 Star Academy, he should definitely not be someone obscure.

  Then Zhu Mu Er proudly said, “My father’s name is Zhu Yao Shi, you should know him right?”

  Liu Xian immediately became terrified, and quickly said, “So you are Elder Brother Yao Shi’s daughter, I really have neglected my duties.”

  Ning Cheng had long since had guessed that Zhu Mu Er’s father was not simple, it seems that it really was the case. Even to the people like Deacon Liu Xian from the God Wind Academy to show such behaviour, it showed that Zhu Mu Er’s father was really respectable.

  Because of their special relationship with Zhu Yao Shi, Liu Xian chatted quite enthusiastically with Ning Cheng and the others, as he personally gave them the Jade Cards of the God Wind Academy, as he completed the rest of the formalities for entering the God Wind Academy.

  “The second round will be conducted in 10 days, this round will test one’s ability to comprehend, all the top 1000 participants will be attending this round. Do you want to move into the God Wind Academy residential area here directly? And use these 10 days to prepare for the upcoming second round?” Although Ning Cheng is now the disciple of the God Wind Academy, but this Deacon Liu Xian’s tone showed that he was still very much concerned about the opinion of Ning Cheng.

  “Many thanks Deacon Liu, but as I have a few personal things to take care, so for the time being I will not live here. However, I will not leave Mo Ze City, and 10 days later I will come to participate in the second round.” Ning Cheng quickly rejected his offer.

  His body had the Mysterious Yellow Bead inside, unless it was something that absolutely couldn’t be helped, he did not want to live together with a master of the Profound Congealing Realm.

  “Of course, once you take care of your things, then 10 days later you can directly come to the Mo Ze Grand Plaza.” In regards to the treatment given to Ning Cheng, Liu Xian was extremely tolerant.

  Since Ning Cheng was not interested in staying at the God Wind Academy, Ji Luo Fei would also obviously not stay here. As for Zhu Mu Er it was even more unlikely for her to stay here, coupled with her thinking that she joined the 5 Star Academy on her own strength, at this time, she would definitely go and try to show off in front of her dad. Her meaning being, ‘You see I don’t need your help, with my own ability, how could I not join the God Wind Academy?’

  ……

  “Luo Fei, during these 10 days it would be better if we did not go out, Mo Ze City is not necessarily a safe place for us.” Coming back to their room, Ning Cheng first urged Ji Luo Fei to not to go out.

  “En, I feel like I am going to break through to the Qi Gathering 6th Level, so I will stay inside to cultivate during these few days.” Ji Luo Fei immediately replied, even if Ning Cheng had not asked her, she would definitely not get onto the streets of Mo Ze City by herself.

  As Ji Luo Fei went into her closed door training while attempting to breakthrough to the Qi Gathering 6th Level, Ning Cheng was also getting ready to enhance his cultivation during these 10 days. His Meridians had already been remoulded by the Mysterious Yellow Origin, so if he wanted to successfully cultivate in the True Condensation Realm, then he would have to work several times harder than before.

  This was not because his qualifications were poor, but because his cultivation now required even more resources than before. If there were no more resources for him to continue his cultivation, then to Ning Cheng, the expansion and remoulding of his Meridians was not necessarily a good thing. In other words, the resources needed for him to advance to the Essence Building Realm before, would now probably be only enough for him to advance only to the Intermediate Stages of the True Condensation Realm.

  “Since you still have not gone into closed door training, I came to find you regarding somethings.” Ning Cheng had just prepared the Isolation Array Formation, when a familiar voice abruptly sounded in his ears.

  Ning Cheng immediately stood up with surprise, “Who?”

  For this person to come in through his Isolation Array Formation and into his room, how could he not sense it?

  “How much time has it been since then, and you still do not recognize your benefactor?” This voice was coming from in front of Ning Cheng, then Ning Cheng immediately saw a white haired old woman wearing a blue robe in front of him.

  “Is it really you? How are you ……” Ning Cheng wanted to inquire how this old woman came in silently, he had already arranged several Array Formations in his room, but he swallowed the words that he was about to speak.

  The white haired old woman slowly walked to the chair nearby and sat down, “I really did not expect that you would be able to arrange a Level 2 Array Formation. Although, this Level 2 Array Formations is just a small bubble in front of me, it is not something that could stop me from entering.”

  Ning Cheng immediately restrained this heavy shock in her heart, then cupped his fist in front of this white haired old woman, he spoke very respectfully, “Ning Cheng greets Senior, many thanks to senior for helping this junior with your refined Artefacts. If not for the inner armour that was made by senior, this junior would have died a long time ago.”

  Ning Cheng did not speak any nonsense, if not for the help of the white haired old woman who had helped him in refining not only the 7 Pleiades Ice Needle but also the inner Dragon Hide Armour, he really would have died. These two things had saved his life numerous times.

  Although he was thanking her, Ning Cheng was still a bit uncomfortable in his heart, as he felt that he had to definitely improve his own Level of Array Formations. At least he had to improve his Sensing Array Formation, so that when someone entered his Array Formation, he would be the first to know about it.

  But then thinking about the thousand-mile gap between the cultivation levels of the white haired old woman and him, Ning Cheng could feel his powerlessness. Perhaps even if he could arrange a more powerful Sensing Array Formation, other people may still be able to enter his room quietly. The level of Array Formations did not really matter to him, what really mattered to him was the disparity between their cultivation levels.

  “You can thank me for the inner armour that I refinished, but the 100 points that you obtained in the first round was obtained by relying on your own ability, so why would you try and thank me for it?” To Ning Cheng’s surprise, the white haired old woman said something that Ning Cheng could really not understand.

  Ning Cheng had a few doubts in his heart, the reason why he obtained the first place, was because of his own memory, what relation could it even have with Ning Cheng’s relationship with the white haired old woman?

  “When you received my wooden box, did you also not receive the words I left behind for you?” Seeing the puzzled look on Ning Cheng’s face, the white haired old woman once again reminded him.

  Ning Cheng immediately thought of the wooden box that he had received from the very ugly looking teenager who had said to him, “Aunt Gong Sun gave me this just before she left, she said to pass this on to you, all the things that you wa
nt are in here, hope you do what your strength allows.”

  He was still thinking about the 7 Pleiades Ice Needle at that time, what did she mean by those words ‘hope you do what your strength allows’? Now thinking about it, he could see that these words spoken by the white haired old women seemed to be quite unique.

  In that wooden box other than the ice needle inside it, it only had the inner armour and nothing else, Ning Cheng thought back to the wooden box that he had emptied for the first time, and immediately took it out. While simultaneously sweeping through the wooden box with his Spiritual Sense, the next moment he could vaguely feel a Jade Piece sealed in the base of the wooden box.

  “Why don’t you take out the Jade Piece.” The old woman knew that Ning Cheng found out the Jade Piece she had put there.

  Ning Cheng immediately crushed the base of the wooden box, and after the Jade Piece came out, he asked with a puzzled expression, “Senior, what does this Jade Piece contain?”

  “You’ll know if you look.” The old woman replied in a mild tone.

  Ning Cheng immediately swept the Jade Piece with his Spiritual Sense and could see the contents inside, it turned out that the Jade Piece was filled with the basics of Alchemy. This Jade Piece was filled with innumerable simple and complex information that even his head began to hurt. The Jade Piece even contained the basics of Spiritual Grasses, when Ning Cheng saw the basics of the Spiritual Grasses in it, he immediately understood what the matter was.

  The basics of the Spiritual Grasses in this Jade Piece and the contents of the Spiritual Grasses that he had seen in the preliminary round were exactly the same, but the Jade Piece contained even more information on the Spiritual Grasses than the one he had seen during the written examination.

  Seeing that Ning Cheng finally saw the contents, this old woman said in a light voice, “I was sincere to you, and even helped you this much, but you even deceived an old woman like me.”

  Ning Cheng immediately responded, when the woman said that he had deceived him, he immediately understood what was happening.

  She had thought that if he had not read the basics of the Spiritual Grasses beforehand, then he could not have scored those 100 points. In other words, it would imply that his memory was indeed extremely powerful, perhaps even bordering on having a photographic memory.

  Since she had already guessed that his memory was extremely powerful, this old woman had hidden that Jade Piece inside the wooden box, so Ning Cheng would certainly remember it if he saw it again. But didn’t the white haired old woman say that she did not want this Jade Piece to go to him, moreover even firmly said it.

  Now that this white haired old woman had caught on to the current, he also could not deny what she thought to be the undeniable.

  Thinking of this, Ning Cheng said in an embarrassed tone, “Senior, this junior had indeed memorized the contents of the Jade Piece that you hid, therefore I do not want the Jade Piece. This junior had truly tried to deceive this senior, please punish me senior.”

  Ning Cheng could only play along, this white haired old woman’s cultivation was extremely powerful when compared to him, if he went against her, despite what he said or did, it would only be disadvantageous to him.

  But the white haired old woman still spoke in an unhurried way, “It’s good that you know, since your memory is already this powerful, so you do not need to give that Jade Piece back to me, whether one day you really become a master of Alchemy or not is not important for me.”

  “Thank you senior.” After Ning Cheng said those words in embarrassment, he put away the Jade Piece, but his heart was still somewhat uneasy. He and that old woman were definitely not related, therefore, for her to be this nice to him, it wouldn’t take the sky to fall for Ning Cheng to believe that she had some sort of request that she wanted to ask him.

  The old woman seemed to know what Ning Cheng was thinking at the moment, and suddenly spoke up, “Do you think that I am interested in you? As such you are feeling some trepidation in your heart?”

  She did not wait for Ning Cheng to speak, as the old woman continued to speak, “At first, I thought that you were an honest person, coupled with the fact that you even gave the materials from the One Horned Flood Dragon that I really needed, so I really did not think much in helping you. Although the level of the One Horned Flood Dragon was not very high, but this kind of beast like a One Horned Flood Dragon is already very rare, so for you to obtain it was indeed very impressive.”

  Ning Cheng finally understood why this woman had given him the basics of Alchemy, so it was really because of such a thing.

  “Moreover don’t you ever think that the Alchemy Jade Piece that I gave you is something very ordinary, the fact is that the basics of Alchemy that I gave you, even if was the entire Yi Xing Mainland, it can be counted among the top of the top. If you want learn Alchemy, you will come to know about this fact in the future. However, to me, the One Horned Flood Dragon that you brought was something that I very much needed.”

  Talking till this point, the old woman stopped and carefully looked at Ning Cheng for a long time, and then continued, “The last time I gave you the Jade Piece containing the basics of Alchemy, there was reason for it. The last time that I saw you, you seemed to have an elusive Qi around your body. That kind of Qi was something that I found very splendid, but I also could not find what it actually was. But now that I see you, that Qi has already disappeared? Or should I say that I cannot detect it anymore?”

  Ning Cheng forcefully suppressed the fear that was starting to show in his heart, and made an appearance as if he couldn’t understand what she was saying, as he frowned and said, “Senior, what do you mean that I have an elusive Qi around my body? What in the world is that? Could it be because of the Spiritual Essence Pool that I had went to cultivate in before?”

  The white haired old woman gave a meaningful glance to Ning Cheng, and just shook her head and said, “Absolutely not.”

  But then she did not continue to ask about the elusive Qi that she felt around Ning Cheng before, and even her tone became very gentle and said, “Although you deceived me last time, I do not hold it against you, but you have to help me in one thing.”

  Ning Cheng immediately gave a crisp reply, “What is the need to even ask this junior, senior can freely speak her request, as long as this junior is able to fulfil it, this junior will definitely not refuse it.”

  “You should be probably the same as what I thought of you, I have already seen the last additional question in the 5th written round, you could solve that problem in such a short time even without using your Spiritual Sense, it would only mean that you have a special ability, that is you should have an extremely powerful computing ability, in addition to your powerful memory.” The old woman said without even a single doubt in her voice.

  Ning Cheng knew, that regardless of if what she said was true or not, the only thing that he could do was to simply remain silent.

  The old woman saw that Ning Cheng’s attitude had already changed, and still continued, “In the Thunder Fall Desert, just near to the entrance to the Hua Continent you will find a river, this river is called the Thunder Fall Scorching River. There is a thing in this Thunder Fall Scorching River, that I have been in pursuit for many years. However, even with all my preparations, I found that I still could not obtain it. You already have a very powerful computing ability, perhaps you would be able to help me out a bit in that regard.”

  Ning Cheng did not even seem to consider it for even a single moment, before he replied, “OK, I will definitely accompany senior to the Thunder Fall Scorching River, but only after I finish up with the second round.”

  He knew that he could not refuse it even if he wanted to, because he had made the same promise to the old woman in the past. At this moment he only h
oped that this old woman would not kill him after she obtained the thing that she has been searching for all this time. However, this old woman really did not look like that type, and normally wouldn’t kill him without a reason.

  “No, you will accompany me now, it would only be for 2 or 3 days at most, and since your second round is in 10 days, you would not be delayed.” The white haired old woman simply said.

  Ning Cheng was just about to say that they would not be able to arrive even at the edge of the Thunder Fall Desert in 2-3 days, but then immediately thought about the cultivation level of the other side, he immediately understood that time was absolutely not applicable to the old woman in front of him.

  Ning Cheng gave out a dark sigh in his heart and said, “In that case, let me at least go speak to my partner, so that she would not become nervous when she cannot find me.”

  “No, you little **, she is in the middle of her closed door training, it would be better to not disturb her.” This white haired old woman did not wait for Ning Cheng to speak again, and grabbed hold of Ning Cheng and immediately came out of his room.

  Ning Cheng said with some anger in his voice, “I always at least leave a letter, you are too unreasonable.”

  The white haired old woman seemed to feel a little embarrassed, and let go of Ning Cheng, and immediately spoke: “We will come back soon, as such there is no need for you leave a long message. Don’t try to be too affectionate, if you don’t care of losing several days.”

  Facing this impervious old woman, Ning Cheng didn’t bother to argue with her, he only hoped that old woman was at least trustworthy, and would bring him back to the Mo Ze City within 2-3 days.

  Inside the Mo Ze City, the old woman did not continue to urge Ning Cheng. But left quickly, and in just a short period of time, they were already out of the Mo Ze City.
