Quick Wear: Heaven Always Favors Me

The two walked along the passage for a long time and came to the bottom, where there was another teleportation array.

After the master and disciple looked at each other, they stepped into the formation together.

A white light flashed, and the two came to a place with rumbling thunder. There were thunders everywhere, and the thunder spiritual power in Jiang Yao's body was instantly filled.

Murong Zhao also felt that the demonic energy in his left arm was also suppressed. He narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "This should be your opportunity. But if you can advance to the Golden Core stage here, the power of the heavenly thunder you have to endure will be magnified ten or a hundred times."

Just as Murong Zhao said, in this valley, the thunder spiritual power is extremely abundant. If one uses the mutated thunder spiritual roots to practice and overcome tribulations here, one will get twice the result with half the effort. However, at the same time, the impact of the heavenly thunder will be strengthened ten or a hundred times.

Ever since Jiang Yao stepped into this place, the cultivation that was stuck in his body began to loosen, and he automatically and spontaneously absorbed the thunder spiritual power around him.

Murong Zhao raised his eyebrows slightly and motioned Jiang Yao to go forward: "Go ahead."

Jiang Yao walked forward a few steps, then suddenly turned back and asked, "Master, you'll be fine, right?"

"Yeah." Murong Zhao nodded, his gloomy and handsome face looked somewhat helpless. He looked at Jiang Yao and said, "Don't worry, the thunder spirit power here can just stop the spread of the evil spirit."

As if afraid that Jiang Yao would not believe it, Murong Zhao lifted up his sleeves. After seeing that the evil energy was blocked at his wrists and no longer spread, Jiang Yao nodded in relief.

She warned, "Master, please do not use self-harm to dispel the evil spirit unless it is absolutely necessary."

Murong Zhao fell silent upon hearing this. This was exactly what he was thinking.

The wounds before were only minor, but this time was obviously different. If one wanted to completely eliminate the evil spirit of the Demonic Serpent, the entire hand would have to be disabled.

The problem with the left hand is not that serious. If you want to grow a severed limb, you can just go find a Black Jade Pill.

Murong Zhao originally thought that he should disregard Jiang Yao's wishes and directly cripple his arm. After all, this was his usual style and it was also the best choice when demonic energy entered his body.

But inexplicably, Murong Zhao looked at Jiang Yao's serious questioning and he sighed and agreed: "Okay."

Jiang Yao felt relieved after hearing that. She knew that Murong Zhao always kept his word and was confident that he could do what he promised.

However, what Jiang Yao was not sure about was how long it would take to overcome the tribulation, which could be as short as half a month or as long as a year. Murong Zhao was also prepared to wait for Jiang Yao to overcome the tribulation again for half a year.

He gave all the magic weapons that could resist thunder tribulations to Jiang Yao, and also gave her all the elixirs that could replenish spiritual power.

What neither of them expected was that it only took Jiang Yao ten days to advance to the Golden Core stage, and the power of the heavenly thunder was completely absorbed by her. Her golden core had an extra layer of purple lines compared to ordinary golden cores, which was the symbol of the heavenly thunder.

On the day Jiang Yao came out of seclusion, Murong Zhao was still sitting in a cave drinking wine.

The moment Jiang Yao walked into the cave, the two looked at each other, and Murong Zhao was stunned for a moment.

It was not until Jiang Yao walked up to him and naturally took his hand that was blocking the evil spirit that the pure power of heavenly thunder poured into Murong Zhao's arm, quickly dispelling all the evil spirit.

Murong Zhao's eyelashes drooped slightly, and he was a little dazed: "You... came out of seclusion?"

Unheard of, never seen a Jindan being able to successfully advance within ten days, and...

Murong Zhao looked at his arm that had been completely cleared of evil spirits. He couldn't hide the surprise in his eyes, and then he frowned. A sense of sadness spread in his eyes, so much so that he didn't care about Jiang Yao's actions.

After Jiang Yao cleared the evil spirit, she did not let go of Murong Zhao's hand. Instead, she watched and played with it in a somewhat disrespectful manner.

Murong Zhao's hands were not only slender, but also had distinct joints. They were like jade, warm, and somewhat comfortable.

After hearing Murong Zhao's question, Jiang Yao responded nonchalantly and said, "Master, now that my golden elixir is complete, we can leave here."

Murong Zhao raised his hand and wanted to cough lightly, only to find that his hand was being held by Jiang Yao. Jiang Yao's hands were a whole circle smaller than his. Although she practiced sword skills with him every day, her hands were still as smooth as fat, and they felt a little cold when rubbing against his palm.

Murong Zhao didn't know why, but he felt that strange feeling in his heart again. His mouth was dry and his ears turned red. He wanted to pull his hand back, but for some reason he wanted to keep it there. He had to cough lightly and asked, "What are you doing?"

"I just think Master's hands are beautiful, and I want to touch them more." Jiang Yao met Murong Zhao's eyes and said frankly, "After all, I am now in the Golden Core Stage, and I can find a Taoist partner to explore the Great Dao together."

When he heard the word "Daoist companion", Murong Zhao frowned slightly, and he couldn't help but said in a low voice: "You are still young, you should focus on cultivation, love will only hinder your pursuit of the Tao."

Originally, Jiang Yao was just joking, but she didn't expect Murong Zhao to take it seriously. He talked about many examples of people who fell from the path of immortality because of finding a Taoist partner without stopping.

Jiang Yao found it new, but it looked like Murong Zhao would not stop lecturing her until she gave up the idea. She couldn't help but want to tease him: "Master, don't be anxious. The Taoist partner I want to find must be as powerful as you, and know how to protect me."

As expected, Jiang Yao saw Murong Zhao's face turn slightly red as she wished, and he stuttered and said that she was making a fuss, but then he finally stopped lecturing her.

The two left this secret place and set out back to Wuji Sect.

But along the way they heard a lot of rumors about the Wuji Sect, which were actually related to Lu Qingyao.

Jiang Yao didn't care at first, but for some reason, Murong Zhao was willing to stop and learn about these rumors.

According to the information obtained by the restaurant, Lu Qingyao inherited the magic weapon and personally saved a ghost village.

Jiang Yao's memory of Lu Qingyao stayed at the time of the inner sect competition. After the sneak attack, Lu Qingyao was punished by Xuanyuan Li to be confined for reflection, but not long after, Xuanyuan Li took Lu Qingyao out for training.

Every time he came back, many of his fellow disciples saw that Lu Qingyao's cultivation had improved rapidly, and that he had handed over a lot of treasures.

Although the sneak attack on Jiang Yao during the inner sect competition made her lose face and many disciples were wary of her behind her back, as time passed, the sneak attack on Lu Qingyao was downplayed and many of her fellow disciples were already trying to clear Lu Qingyao's name.

Jiang Yao had occasionally heard a disciple say something like that and found it quite funny.

"It's natural for people to be envious and jealous. Senior Sister Jiang is so powerful, it's normal for a proud girl like Senior Sister Lu to feel unbalanced for a while. What we should do is to put ourselves in her shoes, instead of dwelling on Senior Sister Lu's mistakes."

This is extremely ridiculous. Can harmful behavior caused by jealousy be forgiven?

If Lu Qingyao succeeded, Jiang Yao would lose her life.
