My Taoist buddy has practiced surrogacy

Chapter 973 Reappearance

While Ling Xue was completing her work conscientiously, she also did not forget to give Zhou Xing the necessary support and encouragement. The tacit understanding and mutual support between them is the key to their ability to get through this smoothly.

Ling Xue was named for her cold and snowy temperament, with long hair like a waterfall, and an inviolable majesty between her brows. Her cultivation is unfathomable and she is recognized as a genius within the sect. Zhou Xing, on the other hand, is known for his gentle smile and tenacious will. His eyes are deep, as if he can see through all the illusions in the world.

In the twenty-second stage of overcoming the tribulation, Senior Sister Ling Xue and Junior Brother Zhou Xing of the Hao Qing Sect found themselves in a small town full of antique atmosphere. Their identities have also changed. Ling Xue has become an ancient wine shop proprietress who still retains her charm, while Zhou Xing has transformed into a diligent wine shop clerk.

In the early morning, as the first ray of sunlight shines through the mist on the bluestone road, the wine shop gradually wakes up from the quiet night. Ling Xue Qing rolled up her sleeves and stood in front of the door, wiping the wooden signboard with her delicate fingers. The words "Lingxiao Wine House" were written in dark handwriting on it. There was a hint of imperceptible perseverance between her brows, which was the calmness and determination necessary for a boss lady.

In the store, Zhou Xing had already gotten up early and started to get busy. He carried water, washed vegetables, prepared charcoal fire, and everything was done in an orderly manner. Although his clothes are simple, they are clean and tidy, reflecting his hard-working and simple character. His movements are skillful and powerful, showing his familiarity and seriousness with the role.

As time went by, the wine shop gradually became lively. Guests entered the wine shop one after another, some came for a glass of refreshing wine, while others came to enjoy an exquisite meal. Ling Xue always greets every guest with a friendly smile. Her words are gentle and wise, making people feel at home.

Title: Love through Tribulation: Ling Xue and Zhou Xing’s Campus Years

The early morning sunlight penetrated the bronze window lattice of the ancient university and sprinkled on the thick carpet of the library, forming mottled light and shadow. In this quiet and solemn atmosphere, a woman wearing dark blue professional attire walked slowly through the bookshelves. She was Senior Sister Ling Xue, an ascendant of the Hao Qing Sect and now a university professor.

Senior Sister Lingxue has long, silky hair and deep eyes that seem to contain the stars and the sea. Her behavior reveals an extraordinary temperament that makes people dare not look at her. Today, she is going to teach a course on classical philosophy to the students. Her voice is clear and charming, enough to make people intoxicated.

In the last row of the classroom, there sat a seemingly ordinary college student. His name was Junior Brother Zhou Xing, and he was also an ascendant. His appearance is not outstanding, but he has a pair of bright eyes, which can always capture every subtle expression of the professor at the first time. He understood Senior Sister Lingxue's teachings deeply, and there seemed to be an indescribable spiritual understanding between the two.

The afternoon sun is warm but not hot, and the flowers, plants and trees on campus are growing quietly in this warm atmosphere. Junior Brother Zhou Xing walked into the library carrying several thick professional books. At this time, Senior Sister Ling Xue was also preparing materials there. The two looked at each other and smiled, as if the entire universe had stopped.

They sat side by side at the big table in the library, and Senior Sister Ling Xue carefully explained the complicated theoretical issues to Zhou Xing. Whenever Zhou Xing realized something, Ling Xue would always give him an encouraging smile, and Zhou Xing used his intelligence to constantly surprise Ling Xue.

In the evening, when the setting sun filled every inch of the campus, the two of them strolled along the tree-lined paths, talking about academics, life, and even the mysteries of the universe. Their words are full of wisdom and curiosity about the unknown world, and each other's souls are constantly sublimated in this exchange.

However, this beautiful daily life is not purely human fireworks. As ascendants in the tribulation, they know that every minute and every second they spend together is precious, because they will face more tests and unknown challenges. But no matter what the future holds, they firmly believe that as long as two hearts can be tightly connected, any difficulties can be overcome together.

As night fell, the lights in the library gradually went out, and Senior Sister Ling Xue and Junior Brother Zhou Xing reluctantly said goodbye. Their eyes were full of expectations for the future and attachment to each other. On the way back to the dormitory, Zhou Xing gently held Ling Xue's hand, and this moment seemed to freeze for eternity.

This is an unforgettable memory of their time in the human world, a bright spot on their spiritual path, and the warmest harbor deep in their hearts. No matter how many unknowns await them in the eighty-one steps to overcome the tribulation, senior sister Ling Xue and junior brother Zhou Xing will work together to turn this mortal love into soaring power.

Zhou Xingze was very busy walking back and forth in the shop, serving wine and tea. He always responds quickly to his guests' needs, whether it's warming wine or adding dishes, he can always meet their requests just right. Although as a waiter, his status is not as good as that of the landlady, his humility and diligence have won the love and respect of many guests.

As night falls, the lights in the restaurant are warm and soft, reflecting the figures of Ling Xue and Zhou Xing. In this ancient world, they made friends with wine and treated people with sincerity, spending ordinary and real life together day after day. Although they know that this is just a step to overcome the tribulation, they still devote themselves wholeheartedly, experiencing the ups and downs brought by each character, and comprehending the true meaning of life.

In this fictional story of cultivating immortals, Senior Sister Ling Xue and Junior Brother Zhou Xing of the Hao Qing Sect face a series of tests - eighty-one tribulations. These difficulties not only test their cultivation, but also test their character, wisdom and emotions.

In the early morning, the morning glow filled the glazed tile roof of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and wisps of warm sunlight penetrated the clouds and smoke, illuminating every corner of this magnificent mansion. In the garden of the house, flowers are blooming, butterflies are flying, birds are singing and flowers are fragrant, peaceful and beautiful.

As a maid, Ling Xue, dressed in simple green clothes, was busy cleaning the courtyard. Her movements were skillful and gentle, as if she was afraid of disturbing the peaceful morning. Her long hair was simply tied back, revealing a clear face and a pair of clear eyes. Despite her humble status, her face possesses unyielding perseverance and inner elegance.

Zhou Xing, the current Prime Minister, wearing a luxurious robe and a gold-rimmed cloak, was walking slowly from the study. His gait is calm, his expression is calm, and his eyes are deep. He seems to be blind to the beautiful scenery in front of him, and may be thinking about something more profound in his heart.

When he walked through the courtyard and saw Ling Xue working, his eyes paused slightly, as if he was somewhat familiar with her figure. However, in this world, their identities were very different. Even if there was a slight strange feeling in his heart, he quickly hid it deep in his heart.

Ling Xue noticed Zhou Xing's gaze, she lowered her head slightly and avoided his gaze. In this house, she knew that keeping a low profile was the best way to survive. Even if you have the ambition to ascend in your heart, you must obey the status quo on the outside and hide your true identity. Day after day, Zhou Xing dealt with government affairs, while Ling Xue silently completed her chores. Although the two of them live in the same mansion, they are like people from two different worlds, and it is difficult for them to have any intersection. But in this test of overcoming the tribulation, they all know that only by supporting each other can they overcome the difficulties together and reach the other side of ascension.

This is their daily life in Level 23. On the surface, it seems calm, but in fact, there are undercurrents. The two need to find a breakthrough point in this seemingly ordinary life to cope with the challenges that come one after another.

The two stood side by side, with a deep master-disciple relationship flowing between them. Ling Xue gently touched the jade pendant around her waist. It was the amulet given to her by her master and contained deep blessings. Zhou Xingze holds the wooden sword in his hand tightly, which has been his companion in practice for many years and has witnessed his growth from an ignorant boy to a master.

"Senior Sister Lingxue, Junior Brother Zhou Xing, are you ready?" The sect leader's voice echoed in the empty valley, full of solemnity and expectation.

Ling Xue nodded slightly, her voice as clear as ice spring: "I have already prepared."

Zhou Xingze showed a determined smile: "I have been waiting for this moment."

The sect leader waved his hand, and a golden light fell from the sky, covering the two of them. With a roar, their figures gradually blurred, and finally disappeared from everyone's sight.

The autumn breeze is refreshing, the maple leaves are turning red, and the campus of Beiyue University is filled with the smell of books. Ling Xue, a history professor with elegant temperament and profound knowledge, has won the admiration of students with her deep eyes and gentle smile like an ink painting. Her classes are always full, and students are impressed by her erudition and lively teaching style.

Among this group of students, Zhou Xing seemed a bit unique. There was an unruly look in his eyes, and he was more interested in history than other subjects. He often put forward some profound and unique insights in class, which caught Ling Xue's attention. His talent and thirst for knowledge made him stand out among many students and became a bright star in Ling Xue's eyes.

The first exchange between the two occurred during an academic discussion after class. Zhou Xing raised a question about ancient cultural exchanges, and Ling Xue not only answered it in detail, but also appreciated his unique perspective. From then on, they had more academic exchanges, and mutual respect and appreciation gradually took root.

As time went by, Ling Xue found that she was looking forward to every conversation with Zhou Xing more and more, and Zhou Xing also felt unprecedented passion and challenges in such exchanges. They supported each other and explored together in the ocean of knowledge. Unknowingly, a pure teacher-student relationship quietly emerged in the autumn atmosphere on campus.

As the seasons turn, the ginkgo leaves of Beiyue University gradually turn yellow, and the scenery on campus becomes soft and warm. The interactions between Ling Xue and Zhou Xing became more and more frequent, extending from academic discussions to sharing bits and pieces of life. Whenever the sun sets, you can always see the two of them sitting side by side on the bench in front of the library, either seriously discussing a certain historical problem, or talking relaxedly about anecdotes about campus life.

In such daily exchanges, Ling Xue began to notice something unusual about Zhou Xing. He could always offer her a cup of hot tea when she was tired, or provide a new way to solve a problem when she was worried. Zhou Xing's carefulness and thoughtfulness made Ling Xue feel an unprecedented warmth, and she couldn't help but feel a ripple in her heart.

And Zhou Xing also felt Ling Xue's unique care for him. Whenever he encounters challenges in his studies, Ling Xue always provides patient guidance and encourages him to face difficulties bravely. Zhou Xing became more confident with Ling Xue's encouragement, and deep respect and indescribable emotions for this beautiful professor began to emerge in his heart.

By chance, the two were walking on the campus paths, and the moonlight shone on them. Zhou Xing mustered up the courage to express his gratitude to Ling Xue. Ling Xue looked at his sincere eyes, and the emotions in her heart were finally expressed in words. They looked at each other and smiled, and at that moment, it seemed as if the whole world had quieted down, leaving only the sound of their heartbeats echoing in the night sky. Feelings of love arise inadvertently, and the relationship between the two also undergoes subtle changes at this moment.

With the passage of time, the relationship between Ling Xue and Zhou Xing gradually became a hot topic both inside and outside the campus. Their frequent communication and intimate interactions aroused whispers among colleagues, and also touched the strict teacher-student boundaries on campus. One afternoon, under the willow tree on campus, several professors were whispering to each other in private, discussing the nature of their relationship, and their words were full of doubts and dissatisfaction.

These rumors finally reached Ling Xue's ears. She sat in the office, the pen in her hand slipping weakly on the table, her heart full of contradictions and anxiety. She knew that her career might be affected by this incomprehensible emotion, but whenever she thought of Zhou Xing, her heart was involuntarily filled with warmth and determination.

At the same time, Zhou Xing also felt the strange eyes and faint rejection from his classmates. He was immersed in reading in a corner of the library, but he could feel the eyes of people around him passing by him from time to time. He began to struggle in his heart, wondering whether he should deliberately keep a distance for the sake of Ling Xue's reputation.

One night, the moonlight on the campus was particularly bright. Ling Xue and Zhou Xing sat down on a secluded bench and communicated face to face about their confusion and worries. Ling Xue said softly: "Our feelings should not be a reason for others to criticize." Zhou Xing held her hand tightly and replied firmly: "No matter what the outside world is like, I will walk with you." Their eyes showed perseverance. Light, determined to face the upcoming challenges together. However, they all knew that this was just the calm before the coming storm.

In the morning fog on campus, Ling Xue and Zhou Xing walked side by side on the way to the teaching building, their eyes firm and their steps steady. Faced with pressure and criticism from the outside world, they chose to believe in each other and face every challenge together. At this critical moment, the school announced that it would launch a formal investigation into the relationship between the two, making their situation even more serious.

Over the next few days, the pair endured a series of scrutiny and inquiries. Ling Xue faced the serious school representatives in the conference room. She clearly stated her position, and her voice revealed unquestionable determination. Zhou Xingze was waiting outside, pacing anxiously. He knew that Ling Xue was under tremendous pressure.
