Longevity Thunder Ancestor

Chapter 316 Two months later

In a beam of purple light, True Man Zihua, with a murderous look on his face, was grabbing Venerable Peng’s head with one hand.

Wisps of black gas emerged from between her five fingers, and Venerable Peng's face was hideous and distorted, as if he was suffering from great pain.

Beside her, Cheng Susu, with a pale face, was looking at the horizon with a dazed look on her face, not knowing what she was thinking about.

After a long time, Master Zihua frowned and slowly moved his hand away from the top of Master Peng's head.

The next moment, Venerable Peng's body was burned to ashes in the purple flames.

Master Zihua's expression was extremely cold, and her beautiful eyes seemed to contain boundless rage.

"Susu, it seems the secret of your body has been leaked. Even the people from the Black Spirit Church know about it and want to capture you as a sacrifice! It's a pity that this person is unaware of the specific situation and is just following orders." Cheng Ziyi said in a cold voice.

"Ah! Aunt, what did you say?" Cheng Susu seemed to be awakened and cried out.

Then, she reacted and her pretty face turned pale.

True Man Zihua’s face was as gloomy as water, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.

After a long while, she slowly said, "Your physical condition is something that only the Great Elder and I know about in the family. But now it has been leaked, so it is very likely that someone close to you has noticed it. Susu, think carefully about whether you have encountered any suspicious points in the past ten years. Tell me in detail after returning to the sect. I am not afraid even if it is just a suspicion. I will use soul-searching methods if necessary."

By the end of his speech, Master Zihua's voice was icy cold.

Cheng Susu also knew that the matter was of great importance, so she nodded slightly.

At this moment, True Person Zihua seemed to have thought of something. She asked with some doubt, "Was it really that Senior Brother Ning Fa who saved you alone? Although he is somewhat famous, and even I have heard of him, it is really incredible that he could contend with a cultivator in the late Foundation Establishment stage and another cultivator of the same level, especially since both of them are elite members of the Black Spirit Church. Susu, please tell me what happened in detail."

Hearing this, Cheng Susu couldn't help but recall the image of Ning Fa standing in front of her, fighting to the death.

A strange light flashed in her eyes, she paused, and then described the whole thing to Cheng Ziyi in a soft voice.

After hearing this, Cheng Ziyi couldn't help but sigh slightly: "It seems that this is another outstanding figure in the sect."

She seemed to have thought of something, her eyes lit up and she asked, "Does this Junior Brother Ning have a place to stay in this sect's southern expansion?"

Cheng Susu seemed to know what Cheng Ziyi wanted to ask, and shook her head slightly and said, "I heard that Junior Brother Ning has agreed to follow Senior Sister Duanmu to the battle."

"Alas!" Master Zihua sighed deeply.

"Over the years, the influence of our Cheng family has been declining day by day. It is difficult to attract the heroes of these sects. The other families have produced many talents, but our Cheng family is now dwindling and unable to continue. The only one who has some prospects is your second brother Cheng Yan, but he is not as good as Ouyang Tianzong, Duanmu Ling and others, even compared with the inferior Duanmu Pojun, Ouyang Jingcheng and others."

Immortal Zi Yi shook his head and sighed.

Cheng Susu also remained silent.

She was naturally very aware of the Cheng family's current embarrassing situation.

Although it seems that the family still has two Jindan ancestors, it is very glorious.

However, the great elder is already very old. Once he passes away, the family will not see a second person who can obtain the golden elixir in the short term.

By then, their Cheng family would most likely be excluded from the four major families in the family faction and would no longer be able to be ranked alongside the other three major families.

"Susu, you are the hope of our family now. I originally wanted to let you go to the Nantuo front to gain some experience, but now it seems that the secret of your body has been leaked, so you should stay in the sect and practice well. In the future, try not to leave the sect unless it is necessary." Master Zihua said to Cheng Susu with a serious face.

Cheng Susu was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly.

……

Two months later.

Huayu Sect, Changming Valley, Yanlu Palace.

A silver light shot up from the front of the store. In the light, Ning Fa was playing with a round and transparent orange-yellow pill, which exuded an extremely pure medicinal fragrance. This pill was a very precious second-level lower-grade pill - Huajing Pill.

Ning Fa smiled. In the past two months, he had spent most of his time making pills using the underground fire in Yanlu Palace.

His alchemy skills are now considered to be advanced, and both his magic power and spiritual awareness are far superior to those of ordinary foundation-building cultivators.

There is also the help of pure earth fire, and of course the most crucial mysterious scroll that continuously traces the source of spiritual materials.

In just two months, he basically mastered the refining of the Essence-Transforming Pill.

At this time, his success rate in refining this pill has basically reached 20% to 30%.

If other second-level alchemists knew about this, their jaws would drop in shock.

Ning Fa planned to refine a large batch of Huajing Pills for his own cultivation before heading south to expand.

At this moment, a flash of fire appeared in front of him, and a sound transmission note jumped out.

The unique and slightly cold voice of Master Zihua came out: "Ning, your spiritual weapon has been forged. You can come and get it now."

Ning Fa was overjoyed.

The day after he saved Ning Susu, Master Cheng made an appointment to meet him.

Master Cheng said that Ningfa could just tell her directly if she needed anything, and she would try her best to meet Ningfa's needs within her ability.

You know, as a Jindan cultivator and a native of the Cheng family, Cheng Ziyi's promise is very important.

Ning Fa naturally asked her for help in creating a spiritual weapon.

Uncle Cheng was very surprised at first.

It wasn't because Ningfa's request was excessive. On the contrary, it seemed too simple to her.

After she confirmed it with Ningfa again, she looked at Ningfa meaningfully and finally agreed.

Now that Uncle Master Cheng has replied that it has been forged, Ning Fa is naturally looking forward to what kind of spiritual weapon his Broken Cloud Spear will be upgraded into.

Just as Ning Fa was about to fly towards Yuncang Peak, a flash of fire appeared before his eyes, and another sound transmission note jumped out.

Cheng Susu's unique sweet voice came out, saying that she had made a new pastry and wanted to invite Ning Fa to taste it.

After hearing this, Ning Fa's expression became a little strange, as if he had a headache.

After saving Senior Sister Cheng, she first formally hosted a banquet for Ning Fa as a thank you.

That's all right.

After that, he would come to see Ningfa every now and then, either bringing him some homemade snacks or asking Ningfa to go shopping in the market.

Even most of the time, Liu Qinghui was by her side, which made this woman look at the two of them with a strange expression.

Ning Fa was not a novice, so he naturally understood that Senior Sister Cheng might have developed feelings for him because he saved her.

However, he did not dare to accept this love.

Although this Senior Sister Cheng is as beautiful as a fairy, she is even more beautiful than Liu Qinghui.

But he already has several confidantes. Even if the Cheng family agrees to let Cheng Susu be with him, they will never tolerate Ning Fa having any contact with other women.

Moreover, Ning Fa also had some resistance to wealthy families like the Cheng family.
