When Feng Qingya took out the token, Su Jingzhen’s heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Although he didn’t know what it represented, the fact that the other party dared to use it to threaten a suspected Nascent Soul old monster was enough to make him take notice.
It seemed that this thing was quite powerful.
“Looks like Feng Qingya is not just an ordinary pavilion master of Treasure Gathering Pavilion after all,” Su Jingzhen muttered to himself.
His gaze shifted to Luo Yuebai, who was standing beside Feng Qingya.
It was understandable that the Treasure Gathering Pavilion would take action and confront this old guy.
But what was the mysterious identity of this Luo Yuebai?
When they first met, Shuang Jiang had mentioned that this guy was not ordinary.
Perhaps it was time for some clues to be revealed.
He saw that Shuang Jiang’s face was still as calm as ever.
Su Jingzhen relaxed again.
He quietly watched the performance of Feng Qingya and Luo Yuebai in front of him.
If the two of them could retrieve Ning Yao from the hands of the old man called Senior Jiuchi, it would be all the better.
If not, perhaps it would be necessary to let Shuang Jiang take action.
He had a hunch that even if the old guy in front of him was a Nascent Soul old monster, Shuang Jiang would have no problem dealing with him.
By now Su Jingzhen had already developed blind faith in Shuang Jiang.
Of course, in the current situation, Su Jingzhen had no other choice but to trust Shuang Jiang.
He couldn’t possibly take on the old drunkard with his current cultivation level, could he?
As Su Jingzhen thought this, the old drunkard’s expression suddenly changed again.
“I didn’t think you had that guy’s token,” the old drunkard said, his tone filled with surprise.
But it was only surprise, and he soon laughed again: “If that guy came personally, I might give him some face. But you, little girl, are just a junior. You don’t have the qualifications or the right to threaten me.”
When Feng Qingya heard this, her expression changed again.
Her eyes seemed to lose some of their luster.
At the same time, Luo Yuebai’s expression also turned serious.
But he still tried to speak up again.
“What if we add our junior?”
As he said this, a mysterious aura appeared on his body.
The old drunkard’s eyes narrowed again.
“It seems that the commotion on Clear Wind Mountain is indeed not small, and even you people have come. However, little kid, you’re still just a junior. Even if your master is here, I’m not afraid of them, so you’re even less of a threat. Go back, and I won’t bother with you.”
As the old drunkard spoke, Su Jingzhen’s heart sank again.
It seemed that neither Luo Yuebai nor Feng Qingya could make the old drunkard take them seriously.
At this time, Shuang Jiang walked over to Su Jingzhen’s side.
Seeing that Shuang Jiang had finally made a move, Su Jingzhen let out a sigh of relief.
“Shuang Jiang, this little girl doesn’t seem to have just earth spiritual roots,” Su Jingzhen immediately said to Shuang Jiang.
“I know,” Shuang Jiang replied, nodding calmly.
Su Jingzhen was taken aback.
Was that all she had to say?
Before he could ask more, Shuang Jiang looked at him teasingly and said, “So what? Are you planning to keep the little girl by your side and teach her yourself?”
“Do you want her with her water-element Earth-grade spiritual root or perhaps even a Heaven-grade spiritual root to learn alchemy from you?”
Or perhaps body refinement?”
Shuang Jiang’s words directly stunned Su Jingzhen.
He opened his mouth to say something, but suddenly felt speechless.
“Uh, ah… Shuang Jiang, I think this little girl is a good seedling. With your cultivation, you could find her a good master or even take her as your disciple, right?”
Shuang Jiang’s lips curved up again: “I have no intention of taking on a disciple, and my lineage isn’t suitable for her. As for finding her a good master, that old guy in the sky is quite suitable.”
She paused, then added: “Don’t doubt my judgment, and this is also a reminder for you. If I take her away, you’ll find it hard to see her again.”
As she spoke, Shuang Jiang’s tone was extremely serious.
Su Jingzhen was stunned again.
But before he could open his mouth to speak, Shuang Jiang changed the subject.
Her gaze fell on Chen Jinshi’s head, which had already been smashed open on the ground.
Finally, she showed some emotion.
Her face changed, but her heart was already in turmoil.
She couldn’t help but grab Su Jingzhen’s right hand, and after a brief examination, her eyes widened in shock.
“When did you open your second secret chamber?”
Ning Yao’s spiritual roots were astonishing, but to Shuang Jiang, Su Jingzhen was the true anomaly that left her stunned.
In just a few days, he had opened two secret chambers?
In her opinion, this couldn’t be explained by just his talent for body refinement.
As Shuang Jiang asked this question, Su Jingzhen suddenly saw a flash of golden text before his eyes.

A rare triple hit!
Su Jingzhen’s heart was racing, but he didn’t show it.
If things continued like this, wouldn’t his next Right Surging Spring acupoint be opened soon?
But at this time, he scratched his head, looking a bit embarrassed, and said: “Actually… I’m not too clear about these things either.”
“I just felt that when I practiced the Python Scales Power, and used those two body-refining liquids, my physical strength seemed to be constantly increasing.”
“This morning, after I woke up, my left foot felt a surge of heat, and my strength seemed to have increased again.”
“I think that’s when I opened another secret chamber.”
Su Jingzhen’s tone was uncertain, but it made his words sound more believable.
Anyway, Shuang Jiang didn’t care if he was a body-refining prodigy or a heavenly favorite.
The point was that he had an external cheat.
Upon hearing this, Shuang Jiang furrowed her brow. “You opened a secret stash after sleeping?”
“Unbelievable!”
This is utterly ridiculous!
But after a few seconds of silence, she could only treat it as fate.

However, before Shuang Jiang could ask more questions, several beams of light appeared from Clear Wind Mountain, heading in their direction.
“Senior Jiuchi, I heard that a spiritual root of exceptional quality has appeared here?”
“Could you spare one for this junior?”
“Senior Jiuchi, I obtained a thousand-year-old purple ginseng on Clear Wind Mountain earlier, and I’d like to offer it to you as a gift. Could I have that little girl?”
“……”
At this moment, seven or eight beams of light descended from Clear Wind Mountain, quickly gathering in the square of the Huayang Sect.
These people, both men and women, wore elegant attire, and their auras were not weak.
Seeing these people, Cao Qing’s heart sank once again, and fear began to spread.
Because all of these people were Golden Core cultivators!
And none of them were from the Huayang Sect.
As soon as they appeared, they fixed their gaze on the bewildered Ning Yao, as if examining a priceless treasure.
However, they all seemed to be wary of the Senior Jiuchi, who was sitting on a wine jug, looking carefree and nonchalant.
