You think I have mixed spiritual roots? I became an immortal through a spirit gourd, so what are you

"Who told you that? I'm engaged to Su Wanying?" Chen Huai'an was shocked when he heard this news. Such news breaking at this critical juncture was of no benefit to him whatsoever.

"Brother Chen, how long are you going to keep this from us? Didn't you take on a mission and go to complete it? A few days ago, this inner sect prodigy came to you personally, saying that you are her fiancé." Liu Qiaogui stared wide-eyed at Chen Huai'an with a gossipy look on his face.

"What did you say? Su Wanying came to see me." Chen Huai'an looked puzzled.

Liu Qiaogui smiled and looked at Chen Huai'an, "Brother Chen, you still say you don't know Senior Sister Su."

After laughing, Liu Qiaogui looked at Chen Huai'an with a worried expression. "Brother Chen, Senior Sister Su came to the Miscellaneous Service Peak to look for you a while ago, searching everywhere for information about you. Similarly, a large number of outer disciples also came to inquire about you. When these people were inquiring about you, their expressions were unfriendly. I think these people are probably here to cause you trouble."

Chen Huai'an looked thoughtful.

This time when he returned to the sect, he found himself in a huge trap.

Why Su Wanying came to see him was something Chen Huai'an wasn't entirely sure about.

Chen Huai'an has been at Qingyun Sect for several months now, and he doesn't know what Su Wanying's attitude towards him is now.

During his time at Qingyun Sect, Chen Huai'an's knowledge and experience underwent a tremendous transformation.

The people he came into contact with were all immortal masters. Even among immortal masters, there were different levels. Su Wanying was definitely in contact with the best and brightest in the Qingyun Sect, unlike Chen Huai'an, who was in contact with the lowest-level cultivators in the Qingyun Sect. Their perspectives were definitely not on the same level.

Su Daqiang is dead, but the crisis he brought is not resolved at all.

Judging from the current situation, Chen Huai'an's crisis is escalating.

"Alright, I understand. I have other things to take care of." Chen Huai'an didn't want to dwell on this matter any longer; he needed to put an end to his affair with Su Wanying.

Back in Huai Shu Village, they were childhood sweethearts, a match made in heaven. But now, after coming to Qingyun Sect and experiencing all these things, Chen Huai'an no longer believes they are a match made in heaven, because people can be fickle.

Chen Huai'an arrived at the Miscellaneous Service Peak Mission Hall to hand over his mission, as he had already completed the sect mission by hunting down a Tier 1 Gale Wolf, thus completing the mission.

While Chen Huai'an was handing over the mission, the disciple who was registering the mission quickly sent a message to Su Wanying, who was in the inner sect.

"Senior brother, this is the corpse of the Gale Wolf. I guess I've completed my mission now." Chen Huai'an sensed that the steward's gaze was somewhat different. In the past, as long as he took out the Gale Wolf's corpse, the steward would act as if it were a business, register him, and issue the corresponding mission spirit stones and contribution points.

However, the other party did not register him, nor did they issue him any task spirit stones or contribution points, as if they were just stalling for time.

"Could it be because of her?" Chen Huai'an's first thought was of Su Wanying, whom he was about to face.

Before long, several sword lights appeared above the Miscellaneous Service Peak. Then, Su Wanying, led by an old man in brocade robes, arrived at the Miscellaneous Service Peak.

"Who is Chen Huai'an? Get over here now."

"Senior, this junior is Chen Huai'an. I don't know what brings you here." Sensing the terrifying aura emanating from the old man in brocade robes, Chen Huai'an stepped forward with a respectful expression.

The old man in brocade robes looked down at Chen Huai'an with an air of superiority. "So you are Chen Huai'an, a mixed spiritual root of the five elements. A piece of trash like you is not worthy of being engaged to your junior sister Wan Ying."

"Huai'an... Brother... Brother." Su Wanying, standing behind the old man in brocade, looked at Chen Huai'an with a slightly evasive gaze. When she called out "Brother Huai'an," it wasn't as smooth as usual; she felt an indescribable awkwardness.

Since arriving at Qingyun Sect, she has come to understand the meaning of "there are heavens beyond heavens and people beyond people." Before, staying in Huai Shu Village was like being a frog in a well.

She was a woman of heaven, a phoenix standing high in the sky, while Chen Huai'an was just a sparrow, a scruffy bird. Such a person was not worthy of her at all.

How could she have been engaged to a good-for-nothing like Chen Huai'an?

Chen Huai'an's appearance was a stain on her life.

So when she learned that Chen Huai'an had also joined the Qingyun Sect's Miscellaneous Service Peak, she wanted to find Chen Huai'an and settle things with him.

Even if he were to find a Daoist partner, he should find someone of equal status and position, not a good-for-nothing like Chen Huai'an.

Such a useless person can't help her at all. Not only will she not help, she will only hold her back.

As for living happily ever after with Chen Huai'an, that's simply impossible.

"Useless trash, you now have two choices: either break off your engagement with Junior Sister Wanying, or you can refuse, but the consequence of refusing is death." A young man in white looked at Chen Huai'an with an arrogant expression.

"Su Wanying, is this what you mean?" Chen Huai'an's voice was somewhat cold.

"Useless trash, how dare you address Junior Sister Wanying by her name?" As the white-robed man spoke, an aura of power belonging to a Foundation Establishment realm expert emanated from him, directly pressing down on Chen Huai'an.

"Senior Brother Wu, this is between him and me. Please don't interfere. I came to him today to settle things." Seeing that Chen Huai'an couldn't withstand the terrifying pressure and was about to kneel down, Su Wanying waved her hand to stop him.

"Junior Sister Su, I hope you can make the right choice. With the support of the Wu family, Junior Sister Su's path of cultivation will definitely be smooth sailing." The white-robed man withdrew his oppressive aura and said calmly.

"Don't worry, Senior Brother Wu, I understand." Su Wanying looked at Wu Zhihao with affection. He was an inner sect prodigy and a strongman on the Heavenly Gang Ranking. The Wu family behind him was also a powerful cultivation family with great strength. There was even a Golden Core Realm expert in the family.

As long as she becomes Wu Zhihao's Daoist partner, with the support of the Wu family's resources and her status as the sect leader's personal disciple, breaking through to the Golden Core realm in the future will be a piece of cake.

If she were to become Chen Huai'an's Daoist partner, not to mention breaking through to the Golden Core realm, even breaking through to the Foundation Establishment realm would be fraught with difficulties. Moreover, becoming Daoist partners means supporting each other on the path of cultivation, which would allow them to go further.

In the world of cultivation, just like in the secular world, the importance of marriage is being well-matched.

Given their unequal social standing, what could Chen Huai'an possibly offer her?

Chen Huai'an will not only be of no help to her, but will also hold her back.

Does she really intend to give a portion of the cultivation resources she receives from the sect each month to Chen Huai'an?

During this period of cultivation, she increasingly felt that cultivation resources were insufficient, and she could only obtain cultivation resources by completing sect missions.

Chen Huai'an has a mixed spiritual root that is useless in the five elements. She didn't think it mattered before, as long as they truly loved each other, they could continue on this path.

But after spending some time at Qingyun Sect, she learned what the mixed spiritual roots of the five elements represented.

This means that Chen Huai'an will never be able to break through to the Qi Refining Realm in his entire life, while she has already broken through to the Qi Refining Realm. She and Chen Huai'an are not from the same world, and there is absolutely no need for her to waste all her energy and time on this good-for-nothing Chen Huai'an.

Right now, what she needs to do is to cultivate a good relationship with Wu Zhihao of the Wu family. With the Wu family's support, she will soon be able to establish her foundation.

Even with top-grade spiritual roots, the sect couldn't possibly dedicate all its cultivation resources to her alone, so she had to earn many resources herself.
