Chapter 447 Promoting Nan Yin
Lightning spirit root is a mutated spirit root, and it is a very rare spirit root. When Lin Zhao learned that Su Bai's spirit root was a single lightning spirit root, he was envious for a long time.

Now that she herself possesses the Thunder Spirit Root, Lin Zhao has been envious for a long time.

After she finished greeting the three Venerables and walked out of the South China Sea Academy council hall, even though she had seen it many times, Lin Zhao still had a desire to explore her suddenly appearing spiritual root.

Until he sensed a tall and slender figure appearing in front of him.

Lin Zhao looked at the other person's face, which was still incomparably beautiful after three years, and smiled, "It's been many years, and your cultivation has improved."

Su Ye looked at Lin Zhao for a while and said, "I am only at the Great Perfection of Fusion Realm now, which is far inferior to yours."

The information he had received in recent days indicated that Lin Zhao was already capable of crushing a Nascent Soul cultivator and killing a Nascent Soul cultivator.

The girl who started on the same starting line as him back then has ultimately left him far behind.

Su Ye now understands that what her elders said back then was just an expectation, and she herself was not qualified to fulfill that expectation.

Lin Zhao should have had better options.

He could no longer keep up with the girl in front of him.

Ever since Lin Zhao regained her memories with Qu Shu, she has become more sensitive to certain gazes, such as the one Su Ye is currently looking at.

She slightly turned her gaze and smiled, "My path is a little different from others. You've already done very well to advance from the Golden Core stage to the Great Perfection of Fusion, approaching the Heartbeat stage."

Her attitude was quite obvious, which immediately dimmed Su Ye's already somewhat gloomy gaze. After a long while, she said, "I wish you all the best in the future, and that you will achieve your goals."

Lin Zhao nodded and returned the greeting with a gesture of respect from a peer: "In any case, I remember that we were students in the same year of the South China Sea Academy and fought side by side. If you ever need my help in the future, just look for me on the Tian Tong Mirror."

Su Ye forced a smile and watched the girl leave.

He didn't know how long he had been gazing at the sky until Vice Dean Mo Ya appeared behind him, her slender hand gently resting on his shoulder.

“Actually, from the very beginning, I didn’t agree with what Old Su said about matchmaking you and her.” Mo Ya patted Su Ye on the shoulder.

"Lin Zhao is destined not to stay in the Tianhuang Plane. She has a much farther and bigger world to explore. She carries too much on her shoulders and in her heart, which makes it impossible for her to accommodate your thoughts."

Su Ye's family has been the family of the South China Sea Academy for generations, destined to guard the academy, and Su Ye's future is no exception.

This runs counter to Lin Zhao's path.

Would Su Ye be willing to leave the academy? Would she leave the Su family?
The answer is no. He could not abandon the family that raised him for a girl. The Su family is a single-lineage family, and he must inherit everything from the Su family, including the position of the old man in the future.

Let alone the fact that Lin Zhao has no romantic feelings for Su Ye, even if she did, would Lin Zhao be willing to give up avenging the Lin family and reclaiming her lost Phoenix Fortune for Su Ye?

Lin Zhao would not do that either.

Therefore, Mo Ya never had any expectations for this so-called matchmaking that ended in failure.

Su Ye thought of something: "Qu Shu from the academy before..."

If he wasn't mistaken, Qu Shu hadn't appeared since Lin Zhao left, and there was always an inexplicable tacit understanding between her and Lin Zhao that no one else could interfere with.

“That child’s identity is somewhat terrifying.” Mo Ya sighed, “If I didn’t think highly of you back then because your paths and Lin Zhao’s were diverging, then I didn’t think highly of him and Lin Zhao because his identity and thoughts are unacceptable even to ordinary women, let alone Lin Zhao.”

Upon hearing this, Su Ye stopped asking questions and remained silent.

Mo Ya knew that further persuasion would be useless, and she didn't want to add to the child's pressure: "However, the Heavenly Phoenix Plane is developing day by day, and no one can predict what the future holds." Su Ye nodded indifferently.

However, they all knew that in the future, at least in his relationship with Lin Zhao, there was no possibility.

……

After traveling through all the forces in the Heavenly Phoenix Plane that the Lin family knew, Lin Zhao still felt his head spinning when he thought of Su Ye's gaze.

The remnant soul of the Ancestral Dragon teased her: "What kind of look did you have before? Couldn't you have noticed that kid's feelings for you?"

"I didn't understand it before, or even if I did, I never thought about it that way," Lin Zhao sighed.

Of all the boys she'd been involved with who had romantic feelings for her, Shen Yuhan was the one who left the deepest impression on her.

This made Lin Zhao have no fondness for romantic relationships.

She arrived at the last sect she wanted to leave. As soon as she reached the peak where the sect leader was, she saw Xiao Changqing, who had taken good care of her in the past. Lin Zhao's phoenix wings fluttered, and she flew to Xiao Changqing's side.

"Master Changqing, please accept my bow!"

Although Xiao Changqing never formally became her master, he provided her with protection and assistance when she was mistreated by the Immortal Venerable of Cloud Peak and his fellow disciples when she was unable to escape due to system issues. He did what the Immortal Venerable of Cloud Peak did: impart knowledge and teach skills.

Many of the basic fist and sword techniques that Lin Zhao now possesses were taught by Xiao Changqing.

Therefore, in Lin Zhao's mind, this person was already her mentor.

Seeing that Lin Zhao was serious, Xiao Changqing quickly pulled Lin Zhao back. Looking at Lin Zhao's current appearance, he nodded with a smile.

"When I first met you, I wanted to take you under my wing, but unfortunately we are not destined to be master and disciple. Since that is the case, I will not force the master-disciple relationship. I am satisfied that you have the intention."

Lin Zhao's cultivation level is now above hers. Xiao Changqing was already very pleased that the girl in front of him was still willing to respectfully call him Peak Master as before.

Lin Zhao took out a Qiankun bag from his spatial ring: "These are some things I've collected over the years while training outside, as well as some eighth-grade pills that I've refined. They cover a wide range of things, and perhaps they will be useful to you, Master. Also, I've applied to the Three Venerables for the power to fill the vacancy in the Yaochi Holy Land. It will be announced soon. It's the Nanyin Sect under the Wanjian Sect."

Upon hearing this, not only Xiao Changqing, but even the sect leader of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect felt a slight increase in his breathing speed.

They naturally didn't doubt Lin Zhao's words, but they still couldn't help but ask, "Is Patriarch Lin telling the truth?"

Lin Zhao nodded.

The leader of the Myriad Swords Sect clapped his hands and laughed heartily: "Excellent! Myriad Swords Sect thanks Patriarch Lin!"

Lin Zhao didn't show the same politeness he did to Xiao Changqing, and directly accepted the other party's thanks.

However, the fact that Nanyinmen rose directly from a first-rate power to a transcendent power and became a sacred place also shows that this was Lin Zhao's way of repaying Xiao Changqing for his care back then.

Because the Nanyin Sect was the very organization from which Xiao Changqing originally came from.

Xiao Changqing stood out from the Nanyin Sect and became an elder of the Wanjian Sect precisely because of his extraordinary talent.

Now that the Nanyin Sect has become a transcendent force, it will soon have the ability to welcome Xiao Changqing back.

However, this is still beneficial to the Ten Thousand Swords Sect.

After all, whether it's gaining another Nascent Soul stage elder or gaining another ally from a transcendent force, whichever deal is more worthwhile, everyone would make the choice.
