The light from the moonlight passed over Ning Zhier and sprinkled on Su Xiaoxiao's fair jade face, reflecting the tears flashing in her eyes.

Her eyes, which were usually like deep cold pools, were now filled with endless sorrow and pain.

Tears slid down her long eyelashes and dripped onto the jade flute in her hand, making a crisp sound.

Her shoulders trembled slightly, as if she was trying to suppress the grief in her heart.

She bit her lower lip tightly to prevent herself from crying out loud, but the sadness seemed to surge in like a tide, unable to resist.

Seeing this, Ning Zhier quickly stepped forward to comfort her, "Xiaoxiao, don't be sad. Master only looks cold on the surface, but he actually cares about you very much in his heart."

Su Xiaoxiao wiped her tears and said, "Really? But why do I feel that he is always very strict with me and doesn't like me at all?"

Ning Zhier thought for a moment and said, "Maybe it's because he has high hopes for you, so he demands more of you. Look, your cultivation speed is so fast, maybe the master wants to train you to be the successor of the sect."

Su Xiaoxiao felt a little better after hearing this. She raised her head, looked at Ning Zhier and said, "Zhier, you are right. I cannot disappoint Master. By the way, didn't you say that we should plant the spiritual herbs next to the cave? Let's go quickly."

The two came to the side of the cave, and Su Xiaoxiao pointed to an empty space and said, "Let's plant it here."

Ning Zhier nodded and took out the spiritual grass to plant. At this time, Su Xiaoxiao suddenly said: "Wait, I think this spiritual grass looks a bit like a fairy grass I have seen before, called 'Nine Turns Resurrection Grass'."

Ning Zhier said in astonishment, "Nine-turn Resurrection Grass? What is this? I have never heard of this kind of magical grass before."

"Host? Why do you want to deceive others?" Yun Duo was very confused.

"You don't understand. I can't easily reveal my real name. Even though Ning Zhier has a crush on me, after thinking about it, I think I still need more protection!"

"Oh, so that's how it is. Yun Duo understands now. Host, you are planning to pretend to recognize the wrong spiritual plant first, and then let Ning Zhier call Zhao Heng over, and finally tell him the effects of the cold spiritual grass to his face!" Yun Duo suddenly realized.

"Yes, that's it. Okay, stop talking and just watch me quietly." Su Xiaoxiao signaled Yun Duo to watch her actions, and Yun Duo followed her instructions obediently.

Then Su Xiaoxiao spoke again: "I also saw it by chance in an ancient book. It is said that this magical herb has the effect of helping people break through the barriers of cultivation and bring the dead back to life. It is a very rare treasure. Unfortunately, it has disappeared for hundreds of years, but now it has appeared."

Ning Zhier said excitedly: "So powerful? Then we must take good care of this magical herb, maybe it will be of great use in the future."

Su Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "Yes, but this fairy grass is difficult to grow and needs to be cultivated using special methods. It's a pity that I don't know the specific method, otherwise I would be able to help you."

Ning Zhier said gently: "It's okay, I can go ask the Master, he must know."

Su Xiaoxiao was secretly happy in her heart, her plan had been half successful.

"Okay, but you may have to go now. I'm afraid it will wither." Su Xiaoxiao kindly reminded.

"Okay, okay." Ning Zhier nodded in agreement very obediently.

Just as Ning Zhier was about to go to Zhao Heng's cave, Su Xiaoxiao suddenly spoke again.

"By the way, Zhi'er, has Master always been worried about his cultivation?"

Ning Zhier was slightly startled and answered without thinking: "Yes, what's wrong?" There was a hint of doubt in her clear eyes.

"Zhi'er, I think this spiritual root will definitely help Master resolve his problem!" Su Xiaoxiao's eyes sparkled brightly, her voice filled with anticipation and excitement.

"Ah? Really?" Ning Zhier couldn't help but exclaimed, with an expression of disbelief on her face. She obviously didn't expect Su Xiaoxiao to make such an amazing discovery.

"Zhi'er, you must help me tell Master! Tell him that I found a magical herb that can help him out of his predicament!" Su Xiaoxiao deliberately raised her voice, her tone sounding extremely excited, as if she couldn't wait to convey this good news to Master.

However, Ning Zhier hesitated, seeming to have some concerns and worries.

"But..." She hesitated to speak, her eyes wandering, as if she was struggling fiercely inside.

Seeing this, Yun Duo asked anxiously: "Host, is she unwilling to help? Does she want to take all the credit for herself?" Yun Duo's voice revealed a hint of dissatisfaction and doubt.

"Don't panic, everything is under control!" Su Xiaoxiao said confidently.

Ning Zhier hesitated for a while, then said in a low voice: "Xiaoxiao, although I really want to help Master, this is something you gave me, and I really can't bear to give it away."

"I was scared to death! Fortunately, Ning Zhier is a love-brained person." Yun Duo said with relief.

"I told you not to get excited. How come you don't trust your host?" Su Xiaoxiao said proudly.

"It's mainly about Ning Zhier's matter. The host was very confident, but I didn't expect it to turn out like this..." Yun Duo's voice became smaller and smaller as she spoke.

"Okay, stop talking. I get it. Don't worry this time!" Su Xiaoxiao said confidently.

"Zhi'er, don't worry. I will give you many more things in the future. This time is an exception. You are doing me a favor, and you are also doing Master a favor. And if Master knows that it was me who discovered it, he won't be so cold to me anymore! Okay, Zhi'er! Good Zhi'er! Please." Su Xiaoxiao began to act like a tough girl and act like a spoiled child.

"Okay then, Xiaoxiao, but you must not forget to give me more things in the future~" Ning Zhier said pitifully.

"Thank you, baby Zhier, I'm so sorry for you!" Su Xiaoxiao's mouth was as sweet as honey.

"Then I'm leaving!" Ning Zhier said goodbye.

"Okay, don't forget to tell Master that I discovered it!" Su Xiaoxiao reminded worriedly.

"Don't worry." Ning Zhier gently comforted Su Xiaoxiao's heart.

After Ning Zhier left, Su Xiaoxiao showed a sly smile. She knew that her plan was about to succeed.

Not long after, Zhao Heng followed Ning Zhier to the cave.

Su Xiaoxiao pretended to be surprised and went forward to introduce the so-called "Nine-turn Resurrection Grass" to Zhao Heng like a happy little bird.

Zhao Heng looked at the spiritual herb, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes, as if he had discovered some rare treasure.

Su Xiaoxiao took the opportunity to talk about the efficacy of the magical herb, and emphasized that she discovered it by accident, her voice full of pride.

Ning Zhier also echoed from the side, her eyes revealing her admiration for Su Xiaoxiao.

Zhao Heng looked at Su Xiaoxiao with eyes full of joy, as if he was looking at a pearl that was about to shine.

"Master, please quickly see how to save this person!" Su Xiaoxiao said anxiously, with a hint of anticipation in her voice.

"Let me have a look." Zhao Heng looked at the spiritual herb carefully, as if he was having a spiritual conversation with it.
