After awakening, the female supporting character in the abused novel only wants to ascend to immorta

Chapter 270

When Lin Zhao and his two companions arrived at the Phoenix Medicine Sect, Yun Fei was summoned away by the Peak Master of Qingyun Peak. Lin Zhao noticed Song Tingning standing not far away and his eyes lit up.

Just as she was wondering how to contact the Grand Elder, the Grand Elder's prized disciple appeared right in front of her!
Jin Ya was munching on a fifth-grade spirit fruit next to her. When she saw Song Tingning, she grinned and said, "Lin Zhao, you've got another suitor."

Lin Zhao glanced at her: "If you don't want to eat anymore, you can give it back to me."

Jin Ya quickly stuffed the spirit fruit into her mouth protectively, made a face at Lin Zhao, and headed towards Saint Cloud Peak where Zhao Wuyan and the others were.

Knowing that the little girl was probably planning to ask Zhao Wuyan for food, he rubbed his temples with a headache.

"It seems I'll have to go find Zhao Wuyan to thank him later."

Ever since Jin Ya formed a contract with him, Lin Zhao treated her like his own younger sister. Even though his own child was freeloading off others, Lin Zhao still wanted to repay her kindness.

With this in mind, Lin Zhao walked up to Song Tingning.

"Junior Sister Lin... are you Zhao Ling'er, or...?"

Judging from his attitude, Lin Zhao knew that the sect leader had already revealed his identity to the higher-ups of the Phoenix Medicine Sect, and said, "My real name is Lin Zhao. Lin Hui and Zhao Ling'er are my aliases."

Upon hearing Lin Zhao's words, Song Tingning thought of the wanted poster on the Heavenly Mirror: "Is it that Zhao Ling'er..."

Lin Zhao explained, "That was my friend Jin Ya who impersonated someone at Saint Cloud Peak. Now she has explained things to the peak master of Saint Cloud Peak and joined Saint Cloud Peak under her own identity. There will be no more Zhao Ling'er in Phoenix Medicine Sect."

Of course, the world of the soul will still exist.

After realizing that Lin Zhao had misunderstood her meaning, Song Tingning quickly waved her hand: "I meant that your bounty poster is a little different from Ji Wantang's..."

Lin Zhao then remembered that she was still using a disguised appearance. Her disguised appearance could not fool cultivators with cultivation levels above the Nascent Soul stage, but it was a different story for Song Tingning, who was only approaching the Nascent Soul stage.

She casually removed her disguise and smiled slightly at Song Tingning.

"This disguise will make things easier beforehand."

When this breathtakingly beautiful face, even without makeup, came into view, Song Tingning, who had initially thought that Ji Wantang's portrait was exaggeratedly beautiful, was stunned.

He remained silent for a long time before saying, "That portrait isn't even half as good-looking as you in person."

Lin Zhao smiled and thanked the other party for the compliment, then got straight to the point: "I wonder if the Grand Elder has any time recently? I would like to ask the Grand Elder to refine a talisman pen."

When the topic of her minor cultivation path came up, Song Tingning immediately snapped out of her shock at his appearance and said, "Master has indeed been very busy lately, but he has been stuck at the peak of the Sacred Artifact realm for a long time. If you can provide Master with the materials he needs and the reward he is satisfied with, he should be able to help."

Lin Zhao's eyes lit up: "Then could you please introduce me, senior brother? This is a small token of my gratitude."

She handed Song Tingning a jade bottle containing a perfect-quality Grade 5 elixir—the Guiyuan Pill.

This elixir is used to repair internal injuries.

This was perfect for Song Tingning, who was about to advance in her cultivation but had internal injuries. Song Tingning took the jade bottle, but her expression changed drastically after just one glance: "This is too precious. I can't accept it. My junior sister saved my life before, so it's only right that I pass on her message to you."

Lin Zhao laughed and said, "One thing at a time. I will always remember the care you gave me when I first entered the sect. Besides, whether I can get the Grand Elder to help me depends on your help. You are at a critical time for advancement, so please keep this."

Hearing Lin Zhao say this, Song Tingning felt a surge of gratitude and her goodwill towards Lin Zhao deepened. She said, "Then I will accept your offer, Senior Brother."

Lin Zhao and Song Tingning thanked him and returned to their cave on Qingyun Peak, only to find someone already standing there.

It was none other than his cheap master at Qingyun Peak—Minglan.

When Minglan saw Lin Zhao's true form, she showed no surprise. She simply waved to Lin Zhao and said, "I will soon be traveling to the mortal realm with the experts of the royal family. Before we go, there are some things I need to tell you."

Lin Zhao invited the other party into the cave. As soon as Minglan sat down, she said, "I noticed you before you joined the sect. I also had someone keep that male cultivator who offended you before. I thought he had some connection with you, but it turns out I was wrong."

Minglan paused for a moment: "I have already had that person expelled by the sect disciples, but your being assigned as my disciple was actually an arrangement I made intentionally."

Lin Zhao didn't understand: "Since you already knew that I didn't come here intentionally to become a disciple, and that I might even cause a disturbance here, why did you still allow me to enter Qingyun Peak?"

Minglan was silent for a moment: "Because I cannot let a demon destroy my sect."

As long as the Second Elder is still a cultivator and a human being, then he is her husband, and she is unwilling to betray the husband who saved her family and herself from the demon race's massacre.

However, as the signs of demonic transformation on the Second Elder became more and more obvious, he was no longer her husband.

Her husband could be a selfish, vicious, narrow-minded, and jealous cultivator, but he absolutely could not be a demon with absolute power.

Since the Phoenix Medicine Sect granted her cultivation, she was determined to stop this.

“I have done many wrong things for my husband, and I know that I will not be able to deliver the fatal blow to him in the end, but when you came out, I knew that you could do it.” Minglan breathed a sigh of relief: “Ye Cheng and I both coveted the Phoenix Vein Technique when he was in power, so we could naturally sense the technique you were practicing. This technique could only have been given to you by Cheng Hai. So before you entered the sect, I sent someone to tell Ye Cheng to assign you to me.”

Lin Zhao vaguely understood why he had been able to do so many things so smoothly at Qingyun Peak; it turned out he had a powerful figure protecting him.

Thinking of this, she cupped her hands in thanks and said, "Thank you."

Minglan waved her hand: "I am no longer worthy of being an elder of the Phoenix Medicine Sect. You don't need to treat me with the same attitude you would a senior."

She slipped a ring off her finger: "I've never had a true disciple in my life. Although you're only one in name, you're the only one I have. I won't need this in the future, so I'll give it to you. You can open it when you reach the Nascent Soul stage."

Lin Zhao looked at it, but did not take it.

After all, Minglan had said that they weren't really master and disciple, and that this kind of ring was usually a hereditary ring, so she wasn't qualified to accept it.

In her mind's eye, Granny Honghu sighed softly: "Well, she doesn't have many days left to live. Besides, I'm not such a petty person."

Lin Zhao was stunned for a moment, but quickly understood what Granny Honghu meant. She took the ring and bowed deeply to Minglan, saying, "Disciple thanks Master."
