Jiang's mother was also his weakness, like family.

He will surely repay the kindness shown to him by the Nine-Jeweled Glazed Pagoda.

"Let's not talk about these things, let's not talk about these things..." The white-haired old man had a kind and amiable appearance.

“Your mother’s illness is not actually that serious, but there are too many mixed effects of the medicine in her body, and she needs to rest for a while. If you don’t mind, you can continue to stay here. This is my Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School’s land, and no one will cause trouble.”

"Then I'll trouble you." Lu Cheng nodded.

As many disciples of the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile School departed.

Jiang's mother's eyes softened: "Before I left, those guys blocked my way. I owe you a lot for this, otherwise Nan Nan and I would have been taken advantage of by those guys."

Jiang Nannan arrived quickly upon receiving the news.

The moment the door opened, her big, pink, watery eyes couldn't hold back any longer, and she rushed into her mother's arms, her eyes blurry with tears.

Lu Cheng stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes filled with warmth.

With his worries resolved, he began to diligently cultivate.

……

"Damn it! Damn beast!"

"They can't even handle these small matters properly, and it's even gotten to the ears of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School."

Xuanming City.

In the heart of the area, inside a small courtyard.

Xu Jiangliu flew into a rage and smashed the jade bead in his hand to the ground. The jade bead shattered into pieces, but his anger remained uncontrollable.

She was practically the chosen one of the Xu family, destined to awaken her martial soul. After years of planning, with his son on the verge of awakening, he even called her back from Shrek Academy before the school holidays even started. But everything was ready, and the awakener was gone?!

Jiang Nannan was a prodigy at Shrek Academy, possessing exceptional talent, and marrying into the Xu family would be a perfect match.

What now?

Should we just find some random, ugly person and let our son awaken his martial spirit?

"Master, please calm down..." Butler Chen lay on the ground, trembling all over.

He kept a close watch almost the entire time, and the moment he encountered that group of guys, he immediately mobilized his troops to stop them.

But who would have thought that the group had pulled a fast one, switching the person out of Xuanming City at some point. The carriage they intercepted was carrying another village woman.

Not to mention that those guys were from the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School. Everyone knows that the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School is incredibly wealthy and extremely difficult to deal with.

It's only here in Xuanming City that they can act tough because they're local. But if they leave Xuanming City...

“Who exactly asked the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School to take action? It couldn’t possibly be Jiang Nannan. I’ve already investigated, and her only connection is the impoverished Tang Ya. Could it be…” Xu Jiangliu’s eyes narrowed slightly.

Another possibility came to mind.

"Could it be Lu Cheng?"

"Absolutely impossible!" Chen Nian's face darkened, and he shouted loudly.

"Shut up! You useless piece of trash."

Xu Jiangliu glanced coldly at Chen Nian.

The latter continued to retract its head like a quail.

"Investigate for me..."

Xu Jiangliu said with icy eyes, "I want to know what Lu Cheng did after he went to Shrek Academy."

"Dare to snatch people from my Xuanming Sect's territory? Even if you're from the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, you won't get away with this! Do you really think I'm a coward who can be trampled on by anyone?"

"Then... the Second Young Master's awakening ceremony?" Chen Nian asked hesitantly.

"No rush, let's wait a bit longer." Xu Jiangliu's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School... Hmph."

Chapter 60 Reunion with Jiaojiao, Sunset Forest

The outer edge of the Starry Sky Forest.

In a secluded valley.

The campfire crackled and popped, casting flickering light on Lu Cheng and Ma Xiaotao's faces.

After absorbing the third soul ring, the boost from the two nearly 100,000-year-old soul bones caused him to surge to the peak of level 37 the instant he broke through to Soul Master, just one step away from Soul Grandmaster.

Therefore, he plans to cultivate quietly here for a period of time until he advances to the Soul Master level and obtains his fourth Soul Ring before returning to Shrek Academy.

Ma Xiaotao was naturally delighted, wanting more time alone with Lu Cheng, her phoenix eyes practically glued to him.

Two days later, we chose a secluded valley and stayed there temporarily.

"call……"

Lu Cheng exhaled a breath of stale air.

Feeling the abundant soul power within his body, he realized that the creature he had just killed was a Crimson Fire Spirit Rhinoceros with eight thousand years of cultivation, which granted him his third soul skill: Armor Break, amplifying the penetrating power of his arrows.

It's alright, considering how few top-tier fire-attribute soul beasts there are in this world. Only the Crimson King's Hellfire is presentable, along with Jiao Jiao's Ultimate Fire...

However, when it comes to Jiaojiao...

Lu Cheng was taken aback.

Since Ma Xiaotao and Zhang Lexuan possess simulated memories, what about Jiaojiao? Could the big flower who was willing to die with him also have memories?

After the simulation ended, he planned to go to Sunset Forest to find the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye and complete the second awakening of his Blood Eye, but he was troubled by the poisonous miasma and had no help around him.

Even a Title Douluo would have a hard time getting into that place. In the simulator, he was already at the peak of the Soul Douluo realm when he entered, not to mention there were crows flanking him.

Moreover, even if they managed to break in, they would be facing a group of 100,000-year-old immortal herbs. Although they are definitely at the bottom in terms of combat power among 100,000-year-old soul beasts, they are still easily crushed by Lu Cheng, a great soul master.

But now... if Jiaojiao had simulated memories, she would be much easier to talk to.

However, Lu Cheng's expression was strange.

In the simulator, Jiaojiao was completely fooled by him. They agreed to become gods together, but he turned around and self-destructed. Jiaojiao was probably completely stunned. He shattered her trust. If they met again now, he would probably unleash his ultimate move right away...

Lu Cheng's face turned bitter.

He should have played it safe. The more reckless he was in the simulator, the more bitter this moment will be.

"Fine, I'll still go and try my luck, what if I succeed?" After thinking it over, Lu Cheng decided to take a trip to Sunset Forest, since it wouldn't hurt either way.

Opportunities on this continent are few and far between, but the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire is definitely one of them.

Not to mention what's hidden beneath that pool... two true dragon skeletons, one of ice and one of fire. If he could obtain the Fire Dragon King's skeleton, it would be an unprecedented opportunity for him.

But unfortunately... that thing is not something he can control right now.

"Xiao Tao, come with me to Sunset Forest."

Lu Cheng looked to one side.

The latter was staring at Lu Cheng like a lovesick girl, her throat bobbing: "Okay, I love you too... Um, what did you say?"

Lu Cheng's lips twitched.

"Come with me to Sunset Forest."

“Okay!” Ma Xiaotao wiped her drool and said righteously.

……

Sunset Forest.

Lu Cheng landed on a giant rock, signaling Ma Xiaotao to rest for the time being. His spiritual power spread out like a spider web, covering an area with a diameter of 500 meters centered on himself. Several minutes later, he opened his eyes and frowned slightly.

This is considered the core area of ​​Sunset Forest, where the poisonous miasma is already clearly visible. If you continue forward, you will only ingest too much of the poisonous miasma and turn into a skeleton, joining many other dead souls.

"Xiao Tao, where's the stuff?"

Lu Cheng pondered for a moment, then spoke to the tall, red-clad beauty standing beside him.

“Here you go~” Ma Xiaotao took out a cannon barrel that was light blue all over, which was somewhat similar to an ordinary long-range soul-guided cannon, but it was mixed with a chill.

A level-seven soul tool, winter has arrived.

Before coming to Sunset Forest, I made a special trip back to Shrek City to purchase one. Compared to a level 7 soul tool of the same rank, its power is less than one-tenth, but a single ice bead can create a snowy landscape that stretches for at least several kilometers, making it a powerful weapon with a wide range.

For Lu Cheng, he didn't need to kill the poisonous miasma, but rather to force it back and then find the valley in a very short time.

"Drink!"

Without further ado, Ma Xiaotao infused her soul power into the cannon. At the same time, a light blue sphere gradually condensed at the mouth of the thick cannon. As the light blue sphere shot into the air, it bloomed like fireworks.

A chill swept over them, and the previously pleasantly humid temperature plummeted. The poisonous miasma that had surged in suddenly receded, and from the sky, a vacuum zone with a diameter of several hundred meters, centered on the ice sphere, had been formed.

Lu Cheng touched the ground with his toes, and fiery wings sprouted from his back. He soared into the air, his blood-red eyes scanning the surroundings with agility, searching for directions. At this moment, his vision had reached an astonishing level, and he could see clearly even at a distance of a thousand meters.

"found it!"

Finally, just after Ma Xiaotao launched her second ice hockey puck, Lu Cheng's face flashed with joy.

Using that level-seven soul tool, the two of them flashed away, leaving a deep shadow in mid-air.

"Is this the valley?" Ma Xiaotao's red lips parted slightly. In the past two years, she had tried to find it, but all her attempts had come to nothing. After hesitating for a long time, she did not tell her teacher... After all, this place was a secret between the three of them.

Two figures fell into the valley.

"Who are you? Why are you trespassing on our home?" Youyou asked angrily.

Compared to the imposing aura he displayed against the crow last time, this time only Ma Xiaotao, a Soul Saint, was holding the fort, which was clearly somewhat insufficient.

But soon, from the Yin-Yang duality of ice and fire behind Youyou, a blazing pillar of fire shot straight into the sky.

The figure of the fiery red flower slowly emerged, looking down at the two of them from above.

"Long time no see... Lu Cheng!!!"

Jiaojiao spoke, her tone filled with resentment and gritted teeth.

Staring at that familiar figure, I felt a mix of heartache and anger. In my memory, that guy was so majestic and tall, like a golden crow descending to earth. He was a true prodigy, a genius rarely seen on the continent, yet he was willing to give up everything for a woman…

Does it hate it?
