Cultivation begins with planting techniques

Chapter 17 Face to face questioning (recommendations please!)
"Brother, long time no see. From now on, you and I are fellow disciples..."

Li Zongyin bowed to Li Ye and changed the way he addressed him.

"I hope you will take good care of me in the future!"

"Ha! I'm just an ordinary spiritual farmer disciple. My cultivation is one level lower than yours. How can I possibly take care of you..."

Li Ye laughed it off and told Li Zongyin not to say such polite words anymore.

The disciple-recruiting conference ended yesterday.

Li Zongyin has good qualifications and has reached the fifth level of Qi training. Moreover, the Li family has always been close to the Zixuan Sect, so it is not difficult for him to join the sect.

During the ceremony, he was accepted as a disciple by a foundation-building elder on the spot.

Now Li Zongyin has changed into the robes of a disciple of Zixuan Sect.

With his thick eyebrows and big eyes, he has a handsome appearance, and he exudes a calm temperament in every move he makes.

Judging from the appearance alone, he really outshines Li Ye in front of him!
Li Ye looked around and nodded secretly, feeling very satisfied.

This is exactly the effect he wants!
The more eye-catching this person is, the less attention people will pay to him once he starts to be active around Cai Shiwei.

And according to the information he had heard in the past two days.

At this disciple-recruiting conference, two disciples, a man and a woman, appeared with superior spiritual roots.

One of the female disciples even has a spiritual root with wind attribute!
Although its cultivation speed is not as fast as that of a true earth-grade spiritual root, the qualifications of its wind spiritual root are the same as those of the Golden Core Ancestor, and it is capable of carrying on his legacy.

It is said that once this girl's spiritual root qualifications were discovered, it immediately caused an uproar among the sect's top leaders!
In the end, the headmaster personally came forward to accept him as his disciple, but did not announce that he was accepting him as his disciple.

Everyone guessed that he probably wanted to introduce him to the Golden Core Ancestor.

In the light of that woman.

Not to mention that the other male disciple with top-grade gold spiritual roots was immediately overshadowed.

Only one day had passed, and even Cai Shiwei, the most popular and prominent Qi-cultivating disciple in the sect, felt as if his limelight had been overshadowed.

The female disciple had just embarked on the path of cultivation, and voices comparing her with Cai Shiwei had already begun to appear within the sect.

It should be noted that Cai Shiwei only has a medium-grade spiritual root. Even if he awakens his blood and soul body, his combat power and cultivation will be enhanced.

But once that woman is personally accepted as a disciple by the Jindan Patriarch and receives Jindan's personal instruction, her future achievements will most likely surpass Cai Shiwei!

For a moment, even people like Cai Shiwei were overshadowed.

Li Ye was just a disciple of Lingnong, and no one had remembered him for a long time.

In the future, when Li Zongyin goes to Cai Shiwei to protect him, Li Ye can already see the peaceful farming life he longs for beckoning him!
"Forehead……"

Li Zongyin seemed to have not expected that Li Ye would not even be so polite, and was speechless for a moment.

Li Ye didn't have the heart to continue chatting with him, and was about to propose to leave when he heard a delicate cry.

"Brother Zong Yin!"

I saw a pretty female cultivator with big eyes and a round face, floating over with a magic ribbon.

As soon as she landed, the girl grabbed Li Zongyin's arm and acted coquettishly.
"Brother Zong Yin, why didn't you come find me after you settled down? Didn't we agree to familiarize ourselves with the Purple Profound Sect's mountain gate together?"

They were so affectionate with each other that they didn't take Li Ye, who was standing next to them, seriously at all.

Li Zongyin glanced at Li Ye with a little embarrassment, gently broke free from his arms, and introduced himself to the female cultivator in the face of her dissatisfaction.
"Excuse me, brother. This is Zhang Jingjing... my fiancée, the daughter of the Zhang family's patriarch."

"Jingjing, come and meet your brother!"

Zhang family...

Among the major foundation-building families, is it the Zhang family that has friendly relations with the Li family?

Li Ye glanced at Zhang Jingjing, seeming to be thinking about something.

Even such a marriage was planned and achieved for him. In the eyes of the Li family, Li Zongyin is indeed the future pillar of the family!

It would be fine if only the third wife thought so, but even the first wife agreed... Although Zhang Jingjing was cute and well-behaved in front of Li Zongyin, when she looked at Li Ye, her cute face suddenly fell.

Undisguised contempt and disgust emerged.

"Are you Li Ye, the one who even wants to sell the family heirloom spiritual field?"

"You've been in the Purple Profound Sect for years, yet you're still stuck at the fourth level of Qi training. You're so mediocre... can you really befriend someone like Senior Brother Cai?"

"Are you trying to deceive my brother Zong Yin?"

As soon as these words came out, Li Zongyin's expression changed immediately.

"Jingjing, don't be rude!"

"It doesn't matter."

Li Ye waved his hands and ignored Zhang Jingjing's meaning.

Compared to what he had to face every day when he had a bad reputation in the sect.

The look of disdain and suspicion on the face of this little female cultivator had no killing power on him at all.

It was really beyond his expectation that the Li family would let an outsider know about this matter.

tsk...

Having said that, for the Li family, it doesn’t seem to be a problem as to who is closer to them, Zhang Jingjing or Li Ye!
After thinking this through, I feel even less concerned.

Ignoring the unhappy look from the female cultivator, Li Ye said to Li Zongyin,

"Although I don't know why the affairs of my Li family were known to an outsider who hasn't even married into the family yet..."

"However, since you still have doubts after I swore the inner demon oath... to avoid any more trouble, how about I take you to pay a visit to Senior Brother Cai's residence right away?"

"Is this serious?"

Li Zongyin's face lit up with joy.

"Of course I'm serious. Otherwise, Junior Brother, why would you think I came to look for you today?"

Li Ye asked in surprise, but it made him stammer.

Although Li Zongyin has been quite good at etiquette since he met Li Ye.

But he knew exactly what his family had paid to make Li Ye willing to make this recommendation.

He originally thought that during this meeting, this person would most likely extort some money or resources from him before agreeing to do the job.

So from the beginning he put on a big show to elevate Li Ye so that he wouldn't blackmail even his cousin out of shame.

Now it seems that he was judging others by his own standards?

"If there's nothing else, Junior Brother, please follow me!"

Li Ye flicked his sleeves, summoned the Green Leaf Flying Boat and took off into the air.

Seeing that Li Ye was unwilling to say anything and just set off, Li Zongyin looked at Zhang Jingjing with a slightly apologetic look.
"Jingjing, you should go back and have a good rest first..."

"This visit to Senior Brother Cai is of great importance and cannot be neglected. Once I have finished everything, I will visit the mountain gate with you tomorrow!"

After saying that, this man ignored his fiancée's slightly ugly expression, released a fire crow, stepped on it and chased after Li Ye's back.

His fiancée was important, but compared to his own path, she was nothing to mention.

"You just left without saying anything, so ignorant of the ways of the world... Is a mere down-and-out clan brother with low cultivation more important than me?"

"If my father hadn't forced me... I wouldn't be willing to marry such a fool!"

Zhang Jingjing watched the two men walk away, but stomped her feet in anger. After venting her anger, she left in a hurry.
