Chapter 54: The Storm is Coming
Since leaving Fahua Mountain, Zhang Zheng inexplicably thought of the two little girls in the outer gate courtyard and Nan Zhangzhi.
The two are equally innocent and pure, but one was born in a ruthless world of cultivation, helpless, and the other was born in a wealthy and gentle land, where he was loved by thousands of people.
I wonder how the little girls are doing now, and how is the yard?
With a thought in his mind, Zhang Zheng simply activated the Hidden Breath Talisman to disappear and returned to the outer courtyard.
The small courtyard was the same as when she left. The two little girls were not in the courtyard, and there was only an undefeated osmanthus tree with a faint fragrance.
Zhang Zheng fell under the osmanthus tree. In a corner under the osmanthus tree, a smaller osmanthus tree was trembling and fluttering in the wind.
She was suddenly filled with emotions.
When she left the courtyard, she had just buried the osmanthus bud. When she returned, it had grown to her chest, and a pale yellow osmanthus bud had bloomed on the branch.
Zhang Zheng slowly stretched out her hand and gently landed on the fragile flower bud. A touch of milky white vitality lingered on it. The curled up flower bud shook its body and stretched its branches. The light yellow petals turned to golden yellow and bloomed brilliantly.
A touch of golden breath floated slowly from the blooming osmanthus, spiraled into Zhang Zheng's body, penetrated under the jasper in the Dantian, and gradually gathered into a little golden light. The golden light solidified and turned into a seed buried in the jasper.
This was an unexpected surprise.
Zhang Zheng deliberately searched for seeds for more than ten years and planted thousands of flowers and plants, but found nothing. However, when she never thought about the seeds, they quietly came into being.
Perhaps this is an unintentional decision...
Zhang Zheng looked back at the small courtyard where the golden osmanthus was fragrant. The little girls had not come back yet. He jumped up and disappeared into the mountains and forests.
While pursuing the victory, she has not made any progress in her cultivation for more than ten years. Now she must seize the time to improve her cultivation.
The experience in the field made her realize that her cultivation level was low. Even the foundation building she looked up to before was now just the bottom level of combat power in the world of cultivation.
Cultivation cannot wait.
…
An unknown cave in Faming Mountain.
Zhang Zheng is sitting cross-legged and meditating, with her hands making secrets on her legs. Her expression is calm and gentle, and her clothes are light and windless.
The majestic spiritual energy is like a trickle flowing into a river, compressing and condensing, turning into raindrops falling from the sky, and gradually sinking into the clear jasper.
"Boom——"
The golden flower seeds bloomed, and the soft golden buds came out, frantically absorbing the pure spiritual energy, growing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, growing taller, thickening, branching, and sprouting...
A golden osmanthus tree seedling stands proudly, its thin branches spread out in all directions, and its aura is compelling.
Zhang Zheng came back to her senses from practicing, feeling the full spiritual power in her body, and a smile appeared on her face unconsciously.
She finally broke through to the middle stage of foundation building, and the osmanthus tree on the jasper was still in the seedling stage. Perhaps, she could use this osmanthus tree to cultivate to the golden elixir.
Feeling her joy, the grass and osmanthus trees in the jasper trembled slightly, as if they were responding to her.
The cave is peaceful, but in the hidden place thousands of miles away, there are constant disputes and raging anger.
"did not find!"
Nan Yuanzhang roared angrily, flinging his sleeves angrily and hitting the Tencel Yuanmu table aside. The table, which was as hard as a fourth-level magic weapon, was instantly wiped out.
Ten days had passed, and it was more than enough to turn over the entire tribe twice, but in the end, not even a single person could be found.
Nan Yulin was also very anxious at this moment. Where did his sister go? Could it be that she really slipped out with the outside female cultivator?
"Second uncle, did you really not tell Zhangzhi the secret order to leave the world?"
Nan Huaiming frowned and tugged at the few remaining gray beards. Hearing this, he lamented: "Your second uncle, am I such a confused person? How could I tell Zhangzhi the secret order to leave the world when I knew she wanted to go out."
When Zhangzhi came to look for him to take out the boundary formation plate, he just thought that she wouldn't be able to get out without the secret order, but he couldn't get enough of her pitiful begging, so he gave it to her.
Nan Yulin really couldn't figure it out, how did his sister get out? Most importantly, how did she block the tracking charm? Could it be...
She quickly stopped.
The descendants of the Nan family will be imprinted with the soul-carrying mark by their ancestors from the day they are born. No matter how far apart they are, as long as their souls are still alive, they can use the specially made tracking talisman to guide them.
Ten days ago, upon discovering that she and the outside monk were missing, the clan immediately sent monks to search for her in the clan and the outside world.
As a result, for ten days, nothing was achieved.
It would be fine if she just escaped to the outside world, but the tracking talisman can't be found. Doesn't it mean that her soul has been destroyed?
This terrible speculation caused no peace in the clan, and the whole family was in turmoil these past few days.
Nan Yuanzhang calmed down his anger a little, and his hawk-like eyes were locked on the disciples in the hall, his eyes were horrifying, "What about the female cultivators from outside? Is there any news?"
The kneeling disciple was frightened and his voice trembled, "No...no..."
This is to be expected, the world of cultivation is so vast, they only know the appearance and name, and finding someone is as difficult as climbing to the sky.
Maybe that person is in some unknown and remote corner.
Unless they are willing to make a big fuss about this matter and use the power of the Nan family to pursue it, this also means that the hidden family will be truly exposed to the world of cultivation.
Even if one family is willing, the other family will probably step in and obstruct it in every possible way.
Nan Yuanzhang was extremely anxious at this time. He walked anxiously up and down the hall with his hands behind his back. He couldn't stop and hesitated for a long time. He finally made up his mind.
Forget about his mother's seclusion and his mother's Ji family. The lives of my husband and daughter are the most important.
He paused in his steps, turned around and faced all the relatives and friends in the hall. His face was extremely gloomy, and he ordered in a deep voice: "Go and find that outsider female cultivator at all costs!"
Whether it's inducement or threats, it's really brave to dare to take her daughter to disappear.
Nan Huaiming couldn't help but feel shocked and looked at the person in the hall in disbelief, his kind brother.
However, in just a few days, the man's black hair had been dyed with a few traces of gray, which was dazzling.
"Hey..." Nan Huaiming looked back, that's it, just be born, it's been hundreds of thousands of years, so what if it's a breach of contract? I'm still afraid that he won't succeed...
The disciples in the hall respectfully said yes, bowed and were about to leave, when they suddenly heard a shout.
"Wait a minute——"
The disciple looked up and saw an old woman coming in from outside the hall. Her clothes were simple and simple, stained with fresh black and yellow soil.
The old woman bowed to the furious Nan Yuanzhang in the hall, her old voice calm and calm.
"Master, I beg you to spare that girl's life. She is not such a treacherous person."
The old woman is from Nan Yuanzhang's father's generation. She has served the Lingcao Garden in the clan for hundreds of years and can be regarded as his elder.
No matter how angry Nan Yuanzhang was, he couldn't get angry at his elders. He had no choice but to suppress his anger and persuade him, "Grandma Nian, you know people and faces but don't know their hearts. Don't tolerate that outside female cultivator..."
He didn't finish his words, but everyone knew what he meant.
Granny Nian's expression did not change, but she turned her back and left the hall, her voice sounding calm in the wind.
"In the past, I was confused, and the head of the family had his own judgment. If I don't ask for anything else, I just ask the head of the family not to be confused and endanger people's lives."
As soon as he finished speaking, the rickety figure had disappeared around the corner.
Nan Yuanzhang's expression changed several times, and finally he sighed and added: "Capture him alive, don't kill anyone."
