After awakening, the female supporting character in the abused novel only wants to ascend to immorta

Chapter 45 Su Bai's Gift
Seeing the desperate Buddha of Joy reach out his hand to him, Lin Zhao's face immediately darkened.

Upon seeing this, Lei Yuan flashed, and lightning crackled in the air, forming a barrier around Lin Zhao.

“No, that’s not right.” After severing Immortal Venerable Wanle’s body with a single strike, Xuanji Immortal Venerable’s beautiful eyes turned cold: “He has already escaped.”

The feint he made to attack Lin Zhao was just a diversionary tactic to draw Lei Yuan's attention and protect Lin Zhao from being distracted by him!

"He got away!" Immortal Venerable Xuanji sheathed her greatsword, somewhat unwilling.

Lei Yuan withdrew his lightning, looked at the dissipating clone, his aged face twitched, and said, "This clone was able to deceive you and me, and it also contained the power he has accumulated over the years. He probably won't have an easy time even if he escapes. If you and I go back and set up a bounty, we'll surely be able to catch him."

Immortal Venerable Xuanji immediately nodded: "This man is a beast in human form, and every righteous person should kill him."

After dealing with the matter of the Venerable Wanle, the two big shots immediately turned their attention back to Lin Zhao.

Xuanji Immortal Venerable looked at Lei Yuan Immortal Venerable with a strange expression, "I just don't know when Thunder Palace gained a young master?"

With the Grand Competition of the Mainland just around the corner, this grand event for the younger generation is a formidable rival to the younger generation of the Liangyi Palace.

Lei Yuan Immortal Venerable's voice was hoarse: "It was decided by the Palace Master. As for Xuanji, who does this girl have connections with in the Liangyi Palace? How did she manage to get you to come?"

The two exchanged probing words, and the atmosphere of shared hatred over the Buddha of Bliss vanished instantly, replaced by a hint of calculation.

Immortal Venerable Xuanji laughed and said, "I just owe that kid a favor."

She looked at Lin Zhao and said, "A sixteen-year-old at the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment is far inferior to Ji Wantang."

According to the news from there, Ji Wantang has now reached the Great Perfection of the Golden Core stage, making her far stronger than Lin Zhao.

Lei Yuan Immortal Venerable shook his head at this assessment.

He had been following Lin Zhao ever since she returned from Youlan, witnessing firsthand how this young woman repeatedly created miracles that others considered impossible. He finally understood why Lin Zhao had such influence among the younger generation on the Tianhuang Continent, and why even the arrogant young master couldn't forget her.

"A dragon rises from the clouds, soaring ninety thousand miles high. This child is destined for greatness."

"Oh? Immortal Venerable thinks so highly of Lin Zhao?" Immortal Venerable Xuanji raised an eyebrow.

Lei Yuan Immortal Venerable is also one of the veteran powerhouses of the Heavenly Phoenix Continent. If he hadn't been seriously injured in the clash with the Demon Clan back then, he probably would have already broken through to the Nascent Soul stage.

Correspondingly, Lei Yuan's judgment is exceptionally discerning. Even when Ji Wantang was taken in as a disciple, Lei Yuan Immortal Venerable only commented that she was lucky.

This was an acknowledgment of Lin Zhao's abilities!
Lin Zhao felt ashamed upon hearing this assessment. Of course, she wasn't bothered by Xuanji Immortal Venerable's comment that he was inferior to Ji Wantang.

After all, she couldn't even do normal cultivation before, so she was far inferior to Ji Wantang, who had truly unlimited resources.

But she will gradually close the gap between them and surpass them, after all, she must take back the six parts of the Ancient Phoenix Luck on Ji Wantang.

Lin Zhao bowed to Lei Yuan Immortal Venerable with the respect due to a junior, saying, "Senior, you flatter me. I am unworthy of such praise."

Immortal Venerable Xuanji rested his chin on his hand and looked at her with a slight smile. "Immortal Venerable Lei Yuan thinks so highly of you, and you are also so outstanding in appearance. If you hadn't already entered the South Sea Academy, I would have wanted to snatch you away. Since Lei Yuan thinks so highly of you, then keep up the good work. But don't let down that kid from our Liangyi Palace."

She gave Lei Yuan a meaningful look, and then her figure slowly disappeared along with the Star Platform.

While Lin Zhao was still pondering when she had met the people of Liangyi Palace, Lei Yuan Immortal Venerable asked, "Miss Zhao Zhao, are you going back to the Lin family?"

The way Lin Zhao was addressed as "Miss Zhao" sent chills down her spine.

"You may address my daughter as Lin Zhao, senior."

"Hehe, Miss Zhao Zhao is in my Thunder Palace. Apart from the Palace Master, no one dares to address you by your name directly." Lei Yuan unkindly complained about Su Bai.

"If you don't mind, senior, you can call me Zhao girl, just like the ancestor," Lin Zhao said, forcing herself to speak.

Lei Yuan Immortal Venerable nodded: "Yunding is restrained by Peak Master Aolai, and the Lin family has Ancestor Lin Feng. Yunding cannot be touched, but they will look for opportunities to target you."

Lin Zhao nodded. It is said that one can never guard against a thief for a hundred days if one is a thief for a thousand days. Therefore, once this matter is settled, it is best to enter the South China Sea Academy as soon as possible.

Even the Cloud Peak Immortal Venerable, with all his audacity, wouldn't dare to attack Lin Zhao at the South China Sea Academy. Lin Zhao understood this, "Thank you very much, senior."

Lei Yuan waved his hand, "Once you return to the Lin family, this old man can finally rest easy. The secret guard your family arranged for you was captured by the Nascent Soul cultivators from Cloud Peak, and I have already sent him back to the Lin family."

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhao hurriedly asked, "Is Uncle Zheng alright?"

“He’s fine. Now I’ll take you back, otherwise that kid will start nagging about this old man in the Heavenly Mirror again.”

A ray of spiritual light enveloped Lin Zhao, protecting her body. Then, with a light wave of his cane, a spatial rift appeared.

Lin Zhao felt dizzy and everything went dark.

When the light returned, they had arrived at the Lin family's gate.

In front of the Lin family's gate, the boy in red sat on the threshold, idly playing with the small white beast in his hand. Noticing something, he stood up and looked in Lin Zhao's direction, his eyes reddening.

"Sister Zhaozhao!"

Su Bai stood up, took three steps in two, walked to Lin Zhao, and hugged her.

Before the dizziness had subsided, the boy hugged her tightly. The cool pine scent emanating from the boy filled her nostrils, leaving Lin Zhao momentarily dazed.

In both her lifetimes, she and Shen Yuhan had never been this close.

However, sensing the boy's rapid breathing and strong heartbeat, and knowing that he had worried him greatly this time, Lin Zhao lowered his eyes and sighed.

"Don't worry, I'm fine." With that, she pressed Su Bai's shoulder to push him away, turned around and pulled him to thank Lei Yuan.

"This time, we are very grateful to Xiaobai for inviting the senior."

Su Bai looked at Lei Yuan, smiled obediently, and said, "Thank you, Elder Lei."

Even without Lei Yuan, although Grandma could still ensure her safety, Grandma was Lin Zhao's biggest trump card. Lin Zhao wouldn't use Grandma's power unless she was in dire straits.

Therefore, Lei Yuan could be considered her savior. Because of Lin Zhao's gratitude, Su Bai's attitude towards Lei Yuan was unusually close.

Lei Yuan was satisfied with the future Palace Master's closeness. "Young Master, you flatter me. The Palace Master urgently summons me, so I must take my leave."

Su Bai nodded, and as he and Lin Zhao walked into the Lin family home, he asked, "When is Sister going to the South China Sea Academy?"

"Let's not delay, let's do it tomorrow," Lin Zhao said.

Su Bai lowered his eyes, his mood suddenly becoming somewhat depressed.

Lin Zhao patted him on the shoulder and comforted him, "I'll come back to see you when I'm on vacation."

Su Bai took her hand and took out a silver bracelet from his sleeve, with a teardrop-shaped gemstone in the shape of a sea blue teardrop hanging from it.

"This is made of Heavenly Fox Tears and Moonlight Silver." After Su Bai put it on her, he said, "It is also a high-grade spiritual artifact."

Lin Zhao's pupils contracted, and she reached out to take it: "This is too precious, I can't accept it."

Su Bai pressed it down, his narrow eyes looking at her with a hint of pleading for the first time, "Sister is going to be separated from me again. I can't be by your side. Can it stay with you?"

Lin Zhao scratched his head, racked his brains for a moment, and then took out a blood-red gem from his spatial ring.

"This is a Blood Spirit Crystal that I saw in the secret realm before. It is said to be a material that can be used to make sacred artifacts. I don't have anything to give you, so you can have this."

Grandma joked, "Why don't you give him a kiss? I think that would make him happier than this Blood Spirit Crystal."

Lin Zhao said helplessly to her, "Grandma, you're overthinking it."

No matter what happens, Su Bai will always be the child in her memory who cried on the battlefield, wanting to go home.
