There are always fairies plotting against me

Now that I can't show myself in front of my husband, there's no need to dress up.

She quickly changed into the pure white cross-collared skirt that Hanwu brought over, and Zhu Nanzhi put on a long gown of the same color, which covered her curvy body tightly. Even her beautiful white neck was faintly visible between the two strands of dark blue hair hanging from her shoulders.

After simply combing her hair into a half-tied, half-down style and securing it with a jade hairpin, Zhu Nanzhi stepped into the rainy night.

Hanwu stared blankly at Zhu Nanzhi at this moment - this was the Saint Lady she was familiar with, the Saint Lady who was cold and detached, noble and elegant, and not tainted by the dust of the world!

But why did the Saint suddenly stop wearing her hair in a bun now that she's married? She's been wearing it this way for the past year...

Could it be that the Saint Lady has already transformed that guy into a sword spirit?

Thinking of this, Hanwu's eyes suddenly lit up.

It's very possible!

That's why that guy didn't come back, that's why Lady Saint didn't talk much about that guy tonight, that's why Lady Saint returned to her cool and elegant appearance!

Because you have already been born into the world!

Thinking of this, Han Wu chased after him with an expression of joy that could not be concealed on her face, but when she reached Zhu Nanzhi, she restrained her smile and did not ask any further questions. After all, she was not in a good mood at the moment when she thought about how the Saint Lady had personally refined her husband into a sword spirit.

"Great! Everything is going according to the Saint's plan."

'That guy's expression must have been fascinating.'

"But it doesn't matter. This way, the Saint Lady can achieve immortality and become famous throughout the world."

Hanwu thought happily.

Chapter 16 "Even if you are from the upper realm, you cannot break the rules."

After Li Huangquan broke through and came out of seclusion, he took away all the mid- and high-end combat forces of the sect. The only remaining elderly, weak, women and children were happily chatting while taking shelter from the rain in the sect where the sect protection formation was opened.

In the ancient hall facing north and south, Lu Jinan occupied this meeting hall with a history of thousands of years and performed morning exercises under the eaves in the morning when the sky was bright and the rain was falling.

The remaining elderly, weak, women and children of the Blood Emperor Sect are not qualified to set foot here.

Amid the sound of heavy rain, Lu Jinan's breathing gradually became steady and regular. During the inhalation process, the air entered through his nostrils and penetrated deep into his abdominal cavity, mobilizing the Qi and blood of his internal organs, and he felt the sense of fullness brought by the Qi and blood.

After this clear air circulates throughout the body, it is gradually discharged from the mouth and nose along with the turbid air generated by impurities.

During the repeated cycles, the heart becomes strong, the qi and blood are abundant, and especially the surface of the body is gradually covered with a faint red glow.

call--

In the rain, a red kestrel came roaring and landed on the floor tiles under the eaves. It spread its wings and shook off the raindrops on its body. Then it looked at Lu Jinan in silence as he generated the spiritual power that was different from his spiritual power due to his morning exercise.

This is a sign that the body training has been effective.

Xia Ming knew that the eldest senior brother would do morning exercises every day, alternating between training his spiritual power and his internal energy every two days, and training both spiritual power and internal energy at the same time once every three days.

The eldest senior brother is very self-disciplined, but Xia Ming has never understood why he insists on practicing physical training.

After all, since ten thousand years ago, the human race's body refining has not only failed to maintain its level, but has been gradually regressing - not only has the resources consumed in breaking through the body refining realm increased, but it has also become extremely difficult to break through.

It is clear that in ancient times, before the human race mastered spiritual energy, it relied on its trained and powerful physical bodies to fight against monsters and gradually rose to power. Although it later mastered spiritual energy and developed the current spiritual power system through generations of failures and successes, even if the body training did not improve, there is no reason to regress.

The traditions of body refining among the human race have clearly not been broken, so why is it becoming increasingly difficult to pass it on?

Is it because of the decline in the physical fitness of the human race?

But even so, the human race has now ranked among the top hundreds of races with its complete spiritual power system, and the strongest among them are not even weaker than dragons and phoenixes, so even if they don't practice physical training, it won't be a big problem.

But why does the eldest brother still insist on practicing body training which consumes huge resources and is difficult to produce results?

After tilting his head and looking at it for a long time, Xia Ming stopped thinking about this problem. Wandao Sect has no shortage of resources anyway. As long as the eldest brother does not make any mistakes in his body training, it will not be a loss.

Lu Jinan was still concentrating on his morning exercises. From Xia Ming's calmness, he knew that even after a night, Li Huangquan still had not taken over the [Nanzhuo Alliance].

Looking inward, Lu Jinan saw that his body was filled with qi and blood, and he breathed in harmony with the rhythm of his internal organs.

Although body training and qi training are two different power systems, both of them focus on the use of breathing techniques.

It begins with breathing and ends with breathing; Qi fills the soul sea and Qi fills the body organs.

Lu Jinan knew that the human race's body refining system was much more difficult now than in the past, but after reincarnation, when he still had energy left in Qi refining, it would be unreasonable not to challenge his own limits.

What's more, there is no shortage of resources for cultivation around me... With all this food right in front of me, would it be ok if I don't take the initiative to eat it?

"The poison Nanzhi created, combined with the magic, is both concealed and toxic."

Lu Jinan thought silently. Although he had already completed the basic body training such as training the flesh, training the organs, strengthening the bones, tempering the marrow, and solidifying the veins, he still didn't realize Zhu Nanzhi's method of poisoning and the toxins hidden in his body.

Although Zhu Nanzhi claimed that this poison was her own creation, Lu Jinan felt that it must have been perfected based on the work of previous generations. It was induced by virgin blood, and contained a tiny drop of blood within the indescribable water droplets within the floating particles...

No matter how you think about it, this is a poison that only the women of the Hehuan Sect could be involved in.

But then I thought that Zhu Nanzhi might have been practicing in a small dark room, so it was more likely that he saw the predecessor of this poison from Qingmiao Palace.

But then again, a pure holy place like Qingmiao Palace has always looked down on the Hehuan Sect, so how could there be such a thing?

"In order to allow disciples who enter the mortal world to refine their husbands into sword spirits like Nanzhi did, so they are no longer serious?"

Lu Jinan grumbled inwardly as he finished his morning exercise. He pinched a spell to clean the sweat off his body and turned to look at Xia Ming: "Did you find anything?"

Xia Ming transformed into a girl with twin buns, and with her hands on her hips, she confidently said, "I left the day before yesterday and only then realized I didn't bring the test stone to check my physical condition!"

"So you didn't find anything?" Lu Jinan smiled.

"Of course not." Xia Ming shook his head proudly. "I did find out. There's a late-stage Yun Dao Realm cultivator named Xiao Li beside Lin Mu. He was in charge of the defense formation while Lin Mu was in seclusion, resisting Li Huangquan's personal attack. He's obviously a genius!"

Lu Jinan nodded: "That's fine."

"Right, right." Xia Ming came up to him and asked curiously, "You said Lin Mu came from the upper realm. The conditions in the upper realm were so good, why did you send him to such a poor and remote place?"

Lu Jinan put his hands behind his back and said calmly: "Lin Mu is from the upper realm, but he is not from the upper realm."

?

Xia Ming's eyes flashed with clear stupidity, and then he put his hands on his hips and said dissatisfiedly, "Why are you becoming more and more like those old men in the sect, talking in a mysterious way? Can't you explain it more clearly? I don't understand anything."

Boom——

A loud thunder flashed across the sky, illuminating the gloomy rain in the morning. Lu Jinan looked into the distance. It was the same strange phenomenon that occurred when Li Huangquan broke through, but it was even more powerful than Li Huangquan's.

Xia Ming blinked: "He broke through? That's pretty fast."

After a pause, she said actively, "Shouldn't we set off?"

"No rush, wait here."

"Will he come over? Do you want me to go over and lure him over to fight?" Xia Ming was very excited. It had been a long time since he saw the eldest brother take action.

"Don't." Lu Jinan stopped her. Zhu Nanzhi was most likely over there now. What if she found Xia Ming, the little bird that had come into contact with him the day before yesterday, and got jealous?

It's scary when a yandere gets jealous.

"He will come." Lu Jinan said, "Don't worry."

"Okay then." Xia Ming suppressed his emotions and was a little curious about why the senior brother asked him to come over.

Lu Jinan smiled slightly and spoke again: "I just said that Lin Mu is from the upper realm, but he is not from the upper realm, right?"

"Yeah!" Xia Ming nodded quickly: "Why?"

Lu Jinan turned and walked towards the main hall, saying softly, "Possess the body."

Xia Ming's eyes suddenly widened: "Seize, seize a body? Someone from the upper realm?"

Lu Jinan walked up the steps and sat on the seat of the Sect Master that originally belonged to Li Huangquan. He looked out at the rain and said calmly, "Even if you are from the upper realm, you can't break the rules."

Chapter 17 "It's far inferior to your husband."

In Nanzhuo Territory, above the ancient tomb of the True Lord Zuozhao that was discovered some time ago, the defensive formation protecting this place collapsed, and spiritual energy floated between heaven and earth like light.

The Blood Emperor Clan's army that surrounded this place cheered for their leader Li Huangquan, and then launched a general attack on the Nanzhuo Alliance that had been hiding inside like a turtle.

In the sky, Li Huangquan, with blood-colored spiritual power surging around him, stared at the girl who was sitting weakly on the ground below with blood oozing from the corner of her mouth, unable to hide his anger.

He had clearly become the first True Lord in the history of Nanzhuo Realm to reach the Zuozhao Realm, and should have been invincible in Nanzhuo Realm. However, he was blocked by the defensive formation presided over by this girl for an entire night!

So many of my disciples saw me coming with such great momentum, but I still couldn't take down a large defensive formation. Where would I put my face?

Although there were some accidents, we finally managed to break through the formation.

Li Huangquan clenched his hands and looked at Xiao Li fiercely: "Now let's see who can stop me?"

Xiao Li wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with a pale face and refused to give in: "When Brother Lin comes out of retreat and becomes a True Lord, that will be the day you, the devil, die!"

"Death date? I've taken all the benefits from the ancient tomb, how can he break through?" Li Huangquan snorted coldly, flew towards Xiao Li, and grinned: "Besides, if I catch you, I'll see if Lin Mu dares to resist!"

Not far from Xiao Li, several women screamed and wanted to come over to help, but they were unable to move forward by Li Huangquan's palm wind.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Li's face changed slightly. He must not fall into the hands of this devil, otherwise it would affect Brother Lin... He must not become a burden!

As soon as she thought of this, she suddenly raised her right hand and slapped her left chest with the remaining spiritual power, intending to sever her heart meridian.

"Want to die? Have you asked for my opinion?"

Li Huangquan used his Zuozhao realm cultivation to suppress Xiao Li, whose spiritual energy was almost exhausted, and reached out to grab her neck: "Before you die, let me taste you, my beauty..."

Before he could utter the word "taste", Li Huangquan's pupils suddenly shrank, and the stone door of the Zhenjun ancient tomb in front of him suddenly broke open. A figure with a fierce momentum appeared in an instant and punched him.

"Sitting in the state of meditation?!"

Li Huangquan's face changed. He quickly defended himself but was still pushed back hundreds of meters. His expression turned grim: "Lin Mu, you actually broke through?"

"Brother Lin..." Xiao Li stared at the figure in front of him, unable to hide his joy and admiration for his rebirth.

"I'm here." Lin Mu pulled Xiao Li up: "Leave the rest to me."

He glanced at the righteous people who had suffered heavy casualties while protecting him in seclusion, then looked at Li Huangquan: "Touch my woman... today will be your death!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Mu released the spiritual power in his body and attacked Li Huangquan with unstoppable momentum.

The fierce battle between the two monks in the Zuozhao realm was so massive that it caused the earth to shake. Seeing that Lin Mu had successfully broken through, the Nanzhuo Alliance began to counterattack with their morale soaring.

In the sky where no one could notice, Zhu Nanzhi, with her cool temperament, stood on the flying sword, her clothes fluttering in the wind, like a lonely and isolated winter plum blossom on the top of a snowy mountain.

Behind her, Han Wu peered over to observe the battle below and whispered, "Xiao Li was almost captured just now, and you weren't panicking at all."

"Hmm..." Zhu Nanzhi nodded casually. On the one hand, even if Xiao Li was caught, she could easily protect her. On the other hand, she was thinking about when and where she would meet her husband next time... She couldn't help but be absent-minded.

"That Lin Mu is quite amazing." Han Wu commented, "He's only twenty years old and he's already reached the Zuozhao realm. Even among the big sects, this speed is not slow at all. If nothing unexpected happens, he will definitely break through to the Tongsheng realm before he turns twenty-five.

But with your sword..."

Han Wu paused, knowing that Lady Saint's mood must not have improved yet, she changed the subject and said, "Compared to your husband, he is far inferior."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Nanzhi's lips unconsciously curled up into a smile, like a blooming winter plum blossom, cold and arrogant yet graceful.

Her cold tone also turned cheerful and proud: "That's right~ Who can compare to my husband? He is only twenty years old, not only in the Tongsheng realm, but also in the late Tongsheng realm. I am a year older than him, but I am not as good as him. My husband is very powerful..."

Listening to the Saint Lady's endless voice whenever she mentioned that guy, Hanwu flattered her with a smile on her face.

Anyway, that guy has been refined into a sword spirit, and she no longer has any aversion to the guy who has covered the Saint with layer upon layer of filth.

Everything is in the hands of Her Majesty the Saint, so every price Her Majesty pays is worth it.

After talking for a while, Zhu Nanzhi, who felt like she was missing him, quickly recited the mantra of "Taishang Wangqing Xian Jue" to calm herself down... As expected, after half a year of reveling every night, she couldn't get used to the fact that her husband was not around so quickly after being separated.

Just thinking about my husband makes me feel uneasy.

"Ahem..." Zhu Nanzhi cleared his throat and looked at Xiao Li, then asked, "What's wrong?"

Han Wu looked at the test stone in his hand and said, "I am only one step away from awakening the [Flawless Immortal Body]. It is only a matter of time before I fully awaken."

Zhu Nanzhi nodded slightly and said no more.

Han Wu looked at the fierce battle between Lin Mu and Li Huangquan again and asked curiously, "Who do you think will win?"

Zhu Nanzhi didn't say anything, and Hanwu understood that the Saint Lady was not interested in anything other than her husband and flawless immortal body.

It doesn’t matter even if Lin Mu loses, as long as Xiao Li is safe.

After bringing Xiao Li back, the Saint Lady only had that guy and the Palace Master in her mind.

Han Wu pondered silently while continuing to watch the battle. In the gradually fading rain, he suddenly said, "Hey, Lin Mu just broke through, and he's actually got the upper hand...

He can gradually suppress Li Huangquan. The technique Lin Mu cultivates is more powerful than Li Huangquan's "Blood Emperor Sutra."
