Ascension to the Gods

Chapter 214 Can one ask the spring breeze?
The white horse passes by, and the twilight passes and the morning comes.

The days and nights of life pass by gently.

unconsciously.

Another winter has come.

"We still haven't succeeded after six months."

On the high platform of the playground, the girl leaned against the railing, her fluffy twin ponytails hanging down, her eyes lowered as she looked at her identity device.

The time is displayed on the holographic screen.

3229, April 2.

Ten months have passed since she was admitted to Linjiang University.

The Spring of Life realm is just one step away.

She missed the last six-month milestone.

To reach the Earth-Moon Academy, you need to wait for the next node.

On the playground below.

Many boys practiced their skills while taking advantage of breaks in their training.

He would occasionally look up at the girl, his eyes filled with admiration and adoration.

As a first-year student at Linjiang Academy, he was the only genius whose academic affairs office ordered him to be exempt from all courses.

The girl was already a well-known campus star.

It has a large and countless following.

Even in everyday life, one can be subjected to a lot of gossip.

At the God-given University Joint Forum, her popularity was second only to Jiang Zhao, a second-year student.

A faint humming sound came from high in the sky.

A luxurious air shuttle landed in front of the girl.

"Why are you so dazed?"

The hatch opened, and a clear, pleasant voice entered my ears.

The girl turned off her identity device and looked up: "Looking at the data."

From inside the cabin, a voice came again: "Come in and speak."

The girl released the railing, brushed the cold metal shavings off her hands, walked up the gangway, and entered the shuttle.

What came into view was the person who had just spoken to him.

She described Qingmei as having slender shoulders and wearing a frost bracelet on her wrist.

Her beautiful eyebrows and eyes exuded a cool and aloof air.

Second grade, Jiang Zhao.

"Sister Nie Zheng, are you leaving Linjiang soon?"

The hatch closed, and Jiang Zhao asked.

Nie Zheng turned around and sat down, nodding and saying, "The next milestone is in March of this year."

The luxurious shuttle was very quiet.

Jiang Zhao said softly, "I didn't expect that you, who are a year younger than us, would surpass us and have already reached the Yongquan stage."

Nie Zheng blinked and said, "My talent is special, so I don't need to accumulate spiritual energy to the limit."

"If you hadn't been trying to break through your limits, you would have reached the Spring of Life Realm earlier than me."

Jiang Zhao said, "Don't forget, I'm a year ahead of you."

"Besides, even if I cultivate to the Spring of Life Realm, I still won't be able to go to the Earth Moon Academy. I might as well hone my cultivation and solidify my foundation."

A moment of silence.

She added, "By the way, thank you for the cultivation materials you gave me; they were a great help."

Nie Zheng chuckled: "You're his sister, no need to thank me."

Jiang Zhao paused, then asked, "Why?"

Nie Zheng turned his head to look at Jiang Zhao, his hair falling to one side, and said earnestly, "Because I like him."

The shuttle cabin fell silent once again.

As Jiang Jian's only level 5 talent at Linjiang Academy.

Nie Zheng made the local news as soon as she entered the university, causing a sensation and proving herself to be the undisputed campus goddess.

He had countless suitors, including many from prominent families and wealthy scions.

However, it has been a full 10 months since she enrolled.

She has always been alone and has never been involved in any scandals.

Only Jiang Zhao knew.

Nie Zheng likes Jiang Jian.

But Jiang Zhao couldn't understand the reason behind it no matter what.

"What I'm asking is, why do you like it?"

Upon hearing this answer, Jiang Zhao's tone became more serious, "Jiang has seen that he is focused on cultivation and has never been interested in matters of passion and desire."

From childhood.

She and Jiang Jian depended on each other for survival.

Although not good at expressing themselves.

But for Jiang Zhao, her brother was very important.

It's even more important than what's here with me.

Zhao Jianxue was once accepted by Jiang Zhao.

Jiang Zhao knew that Zhao Jianxue was resilient, generous, and sensible, and that she was an excellent person.

As for Nie Zheng...

Jiang Zhao's first formal contact with her was after Jiang Jian fell into the world of the dead and disappeared.

this year.

The two had also been in contact.

Jiang Zhao's impression of her wasn't bad.

"I know everything you said."

Nie Zheng looked at Jiang Zhao and answered seriously, "But if I like it, I'll do it."

"Regardless of whether the outcome is good or bad."

"I will not regret it."

Jiang Zhao was taken aback.

Nie Zheng continued, "You just asked me why I like it, but I can't really explain it."

She stood up, walked to the porthole, and looked down at the city of Sanchong.

"perhaps."

"It was at Guangling No.1 Middle School, a fleeting glimpse that first made me fascinated."

"Your brother is really different from others."

I'm not talking about bone structure.

Nie Zheng turned his head and looked at Jiang Zhao.

Her jet-black ponytail cascaded down, draping over her swan-like neck and highlighting her fair profile.

What I like about him is his gaze.

"I've never seen that look in my eyes before."

"Firm, indifferent, cold, and profound."

"His resolve was unwavering."

Nie Zheng said softly, "My heart softened at just one glance."

If you ask me why.

"perhaps."

"That's why I like him."

For a while.

The shuttle cabin was completely silent.

Only the vibrations and humming of the car body remained.

Jiang Zhao suddenly asked, "If one day he changes, will you still like him as much as you do now?"

Hear this.

Nie Zheng was taken aback.

Her heart was pounding, and she stood there, stunned.

Only then did I realize that I had never thought about this issue before.

I do not know how long it has been.

The shuttle stopped.

The hatch opens.

The girl, who had been like a sculpture, finally came to her senses.

She walked to the cabin door and suddenly smiled.

A gentle breeze brushed against her cheek, lifting the hem of the girl's school uniform skirt.

Ask the spring breeze.
