The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

“As for my loyalty to you, Master Su, I swore an oath to the Heavenly Dao when I was in Qingzhou.

No matter when, I will never betray or forget it.

What I said before still stands. Everything I possess is yours to command.”

As Yan Xia spoke these words, her eyes remained filled with sincerity.

Su Jingzhen felt comforted, but he also knew that Yan Xia’s status within the Yan Clan was no ordinary matter.

If it became known that she was his maidservant, the Yan Clan would probably go to war with the Heavenly Dragon Race and spare no effort.

Therefore, the nature of their relationship had to be carefully managed.

Su Jingzhen clearly understood this balance.

He smiled and said, “Now that we’re in the Luo River region, it’s clear that we should adopt a different way of interacting.

You can forget about the servant identity from before. If possible, we can establish a cooperative relationship here in the Luo River Region.

Of course, it should be kept secret. I think you understand what I mean.”

Su Jingzhen knew that Yan Xia was an intelligent person.

Some things didn’t need to be spelled out; a hint was enough for her to understand.

Yan Xia was taken aback for a moment, but the light in her eyes grew even brighter.

“I will follow your instructions, Master Su.”

Yan Xia bowed respectfully to Su Jingzhen once again.

“Stop calling me ‘Master Su’ all the time, it might raise suspicion if it becomes a habit.

From now on, let’s address each other as fellow practitioners.”

With Su Jingzhen’s words, Yan Xia’s gaze towards him became even softer.

She nodded silently.

Without waiting for Su Jingzhen to ask any more questions, Yan Xia began to recount all the events she had experienced since arriving in the Luo River region.

Everything unfolded as Su Jingzhen had expected. The Water Spirit Saint Body was as important to the Yan Clan as the First Sequence was to the Heavenly Dragon Race.

Moreover, Yan Xia was the only fully matured Water Spirit Saint Body in the current generation of the Yan Clan.

Her status was even higher than Su Jingzhen had imagined.

The resources she received, whether it was cultivation techniques, spiritual resources, or the bodyguards around her, were all of the highest level.

This was the main reason why she was able to break through to the Divine Intent Realm in such a short time.

Upon hearing Yan Xia’s report, Su Jingzhen couldn’t help but be astonished.

He silently thought to himself, “Indeed, in the world of cultivation, one’s background often plays a decisive role.

With a powerful identity and strong support, one month’s effort could be the equivalent of a lifetime for others.”

With this thought, he became even more eager to experience the benefits of being a First Sequence.

Yan Xia had only been in the Luo River region for a short time, so her experience was not extensive.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

She quickly told Su Jingzhen everything.

At this moment, Su Jingzhen’s eyes revealed a hint of curiosity.

He asked a question that had been on his mind for a long time.

“I’ve just arrived in the Luo River region, and I haven’t had a chance to learn much about the local affairs. I would like to know what kind of relationship my master Shen Yifeng had with your Yan Clan and the Ji Clan?”

In his opinion, since Yan Xia was now considered the sole saintess of the Yan Clan, she should be well informed about these matters.

After all, Shen Yifeng’s influence in the Luo River region had been quite significant.

However, upon hearing this question, Yan Xia’s brow furrowed slightly.

“The question you want to know is something I don’t know much about.

I only know that Senior Shen has had a major conflict with Yan Ling, the leader of the young talents of the previous generation in the Yan Clan.

There is a deep resentment, even hatred, against Senior Shen in the Yan Clan.

This was because Yan Ling and Ji Qinghe were considered a perfect match, a match made in heaven.

Yan Ling was deeply in love with Ji Qinghe.

But when Senior Shen intervened, Yan Ling’s Dao heart almost collapsed and his cultivation declined.

Fortunately, he was able to recover, but from then on, he cut off all emotions and desires and focused solely on cultivation.

It is said that his ultimate goal now is to kill Senior Shen.

To this end, he has been striving to improve himself and preparing for many years.”

Yan Xia paused for a moment before continuing, “When they found out that you are Senior Shen’s disciple during today’s Heavenly Dragon Gathering, the Yan Clan members naturally harbored great animosity towards you.

That’s why the Yan Clan elders objected when I came to see you and proposed a match with you.”

Upon hearing this, Su Jingzhen gained a better understanding of the Yan Clan and Yan Ling, his master’s formidable opponent.

He nodded silently and then asked curiously, “Given this situation, I’d like to know what level of cultivation Yan Ling has reached.”

Although his master was only at the Nascent Soul Middle Stage, he was still a monstrous figure who was close to the 3,000th level.

Even Su Jingzhen wasn’t quite sure about Shen Yifeng’s combat limits.

A formidable figure who dared to vow to kill Shen Yifeng must have extraordinary strength.

“It’s been a long time since Yan Ling’s last recorded feat.

However, his last performance was about ten years ago, when he fought to a draw with a Yan Clan elder who was at the late stage of the Unity Realm.

I’m not sure what his current combat strength and cultivation level are.”

Upon hearing this, Su Jingzhen felt a bit more serious.

However, he had a rough idea.

If Yan Ling could fight a Unity Realm elder to a draw ten years ago, and the Yan Clan elders in the Unity Realm were certainly no ordinary ones, then Yan Ling was probably at the Tribulation Realm or even the Celestial Being Realm.

This level of cultivation was something that he couldn’t afford to provoke.

Even if he used all of the nearly 4,000 remaining points to increase his strength through the Secret Repository, he would probably only be able to dominate in the Unity Realm.

He couldn’t even guarantee that he would be invincible in that realm.

To reach the Tribulation Realm, or even the Celestial Being Realm, would require a long journey.

“In that case, it seems that I can only leave matters concerning my master to him.

I can help him with important matters, but if he decides to keep a low profile for a while and give me more time to develop, even eliminating Yan Ling personally might not be a big problem,”

Su Jingzhen thought to himself, but he didn’t feel too worried.

After all, he still had many benefits to reap within the Heavenly Dragon Race.

If he focused on developing and improving himself, his strength would undergo another transformation in less than a month.

While he was lost in thought, he suddenly felt a strong wave of battle intent coming towards him.

He looked curiously at Yan Xia, who smiled and said, “Since we’re in my Purple and Gold Longevity Pagoda, no one will notice what’s going on here.

Why don’t you really fight me, Friend Su? It would also help me to gauge my current fighting ability.”
