The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud-Chapter 860: Destiny
The others could understand Steward Lin’s attitude given the situation.
After all, Su Jingzhen had demonstrated complete mastery over the Dan Heart.
Steward Lin knew exactly what kind of talent this was for the Divine Dan Sect.
He was just a mere elder, with his cultivation level stagnating at the Great Perfection Realm. He would no longer receive much attention or resources from his sect, and breaking through to the Spirit Immortal Realm seemed impossible unless some great fortune befell him.
But Su Jingzhen was still young, and with such a foundation, it was clear that he could become a pillar of the sect in the future. He might even rise to levels that Steward Lin could hardly imagine in the art of alchemy. At that point, Su Jingzhen would be far beyond Steward Lin’s reach.
Recognizing this, Steward Lin lowered his stance, thinking that if he could form a good relationship with Su Jingzhen, it might help him secure a future within the Divine Dan Sect.
Su Jingzhen could very well become his ultimate opportunity, a means to help him break through to a higher level.
Cultivators who had reached such a level were often shrewd and adept at reading situations. Steward Lin was no exception.
As for Ten Thousand Beast Mountain, they were simply unlucky to have provoked the wrong person at the wrong time.
Otherwise, with Wu Tian’s potential, Ten Thousand Beast Mountain could have easily prospered for generations.
It was a matter of fate.
After a short pause, Steward Lin smiled and looked at Su Jingzhen and Qiu Yaoyao. “Young friend, with your mastery of the Dan Heart, you no longer need to participate in the selection or even the re-examination. I can take you directly to the Divine Dan Sect for the final selection.
In fact, if you are willing, you could bypass the Alchemy Conference altogether and join the Divine Dan Sect directly. You would certainly be qualified to become an elder’s disciple.”
Steward Lin’s expression was full of expectation.
If Su Jingzhen really allowed him to take him back and introduce him to an elder, the reward for introducing such a talent would far exceed the benefits of overseeing Shenhua Province. Plus, it would allow Steward Lin to ingratiate himself with a powerful elder.
Upon hearing this, however, Su Jingzhen simply shook his head. “Let things unfold as they will. This place is already tainted. Perhaps you could arrange for us to move to another courtyard.”
Su Jingzhen had no intention of getting too involved with Steward Lin.
Now that he understood Steward Lin’s attitude, it was enough for him.
This was the greatest characteristic of the cultivation world: the law of the jungle. As long as you proved your worth, anything you did would be justified.
Soon after, the Lingfeng Pavilion Master arranged for Su Jingzhen and the others to be moved to a more luxurious courtyard, complete with servants to take care of their needs.
However, the news of Su Jingzhen’s Dan Heart mastery didn’t spread far and wide.
It seemed that Steward Lin had sealed the information.
“If I had known that Control Dan Heart was so useful, we should have revealed it earlier.”
In their new courtyard, Su Jingzhen smiled as he spoke to Qiu Yaoyao and Wang Yingying.
Wang Yingying looked at Su Jingzhen with admiration in her eyes.
However, Qiu Yaoyao furrowed her brows. “Do you think Steward Lin has already found out our true identities?”
Su Jingzhen shook his head. “I don’t think so. Although he has the cultivation of a Great Perfection Realm expert, after all, he’s just a elder.
Besides, the Divine Realm of the Four Waters is far away from here-hundreds of thousands of miles away.
Even if they know about the Yunmeng Goddess, it’s unlikely that they’d associate it with us.
Unless they specifically went to the Divine Realm of the Four Waters and gathered information about us.”
After all, since arriving in the Luo River region, Su Jingzhen had rarely revealed his mastery of the Dan Heart.
“Still, we should remain cautious. It was wise not to ask them directly about the Four Water Region or the Yunmeng Goddess.
There’s no need to reveal those things yet. We can always inquire more once we’re at the Divine Dan Realm or the Northern Abyss Divine Sect,” Qiu Yaoyao said.
With that, Su Jingzhen retreated to a room, took out the Black Mountain Dan Furnace, and began practicing his alchemy skills again.
He might not be able to use the Dan Heart in the upcoming final selection, so it was best to hone his techniques in preparation.
Wang Yingying did the same.
As for Qiu Yaoyao, she returned to her meditation.
The day passed without incident.
The next morning came quickly.
Su Jingzhen had just opened his eyes when the daily points arrived.
【Daily Fixed Points: Zhang Xiu: 4, Shuang Jiang: 15, Feng Qingya: 18, Luo Yuebai: 18, Dantai Xuening: 60, Qiu Yaoyao: 36】
【Remaining Available Points: 16,746】
After quickly cleaning up, Su Jingzhen, Qiu Yaoyao, and Wang Yingying left the courtyard.
As soon as they stepped outside, Steward Lin was already waiting at the door.
“Good morning, Daoist Su, Daoist Qiu.”
Ever since he discovered that Su Jingzhen had successfully condensed a complete Dan Heart, Steward Lin had become increasingly worried. He had even resorted to shadowing Su Jingzhen, fearing that the young man might leave.
To Steward Lin, Su Jingzhen wasn’t just a promising alchemist; he represented the future direction of his life.
Seeing that Steward Lin still maintained a humble attitude, Su Jingzhen paid no mind to it. He hadn’t asked Steward Lin to remain low-profile, as he himself adopted a laid-back and carefree attitude toward everything.
Soon, under Steward Lin’s guidance, they arrived at the super teleportation array of Lingfeng Pavilion.
The journey was uneventful, and when the light of the teleportation array flared up again, Su Jingzhen and the others left Lingfeng Pavilion.
At that moment, the master of Lingfeng Pavilion watched the large group gradually depart from the top of a distant tall building and heaved a sigh of relief.
“They’re finally gone. I thought this was just a simple selection, but I never expected someone like this to show up.
If it weren’t for the fact that this Daoist didn’t harbor any malicious intentions, Lingfeng Pavilion might have been destroyed by now.”
Thinking back to the scene in Su Jingzhen’s courtyard yesterday, recalling complete Dan Heart and Qiu Yaoyao’s cultivation at the late Celestial Being Realm, the Lingfeng Pavilion master couldn’t help but feel a lingering sense of dread.
He knew that if he hadn’t been careful yesterday, Lingfeng Pavilion in Shenhua Province would likely have been wiped off the map.
After everything calmed down, the master of Lingfeng Pavilion looked at an elderly figure in black behind him.

“Steward Lin and those two Daoists have left, but we still cannot ignore the matters they entrusted to us. After we clean up the remnants of the Black Evil Sect, Ten Thousand Beast Mountain must also be removed from existence.
They have offended the wrong people, and this is their fate.”
“We, Lingfeng Pavilion, may not have extraordinary talents in this generation, but we must eliminate all potential risks. We can’t leave any handles for those lofty figures to grab.
We ask only for no faults, not for any achievements.”
“Understood, Sect Master!”
