Chapter 25 Zheng's Spiritual Charm
……

"After all, she is a relative, and she is still a junior. Your fourth uncle cannot avoid seeing her." Chen Daoyuan hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Jingyun, you can hide for a while, so as not to expose your breakthrough to the Lingquan Realm."

"Uncle, I don't think I need to hide." Chen Jingyun said frankly, "Our Cangyi Chen family has always acted upright and openly. There is a saying by Zheng and Zhao families that the future and potential of the family still depends on the performance of the younger generation."

"If I act in a sneaky and underhanded way, even if I win the final battle, people will still look down on me. It is better to show my elegance and grace, so that the Zheng and Zhao families can re-evaluate the future potential of our Chen family."

"Besides, Zheng Lingyun will definitely be the backbone of the Zheng family in the future. There will be many opportunities for us to cooperate and compete with each other. I can't fall behind her and end up not being able to hold my head up for more than a hundred years."

Fourth uncle Chen Daoyuan was stunned for a long moment, then he said happily: "Jingyun, your realm is stronger than that of fourth uncle, and your considerations are more far-reaching and comprehensive."

In fact, Chen Daoyuan was also very confident before, but the situation changed drastically after his grandfather's death this time. The burden on his shoulders was too heavy, so he couldn't help but think too much when doing things.

"It's because Fourth Uncle has too heavy a burden on his shoulders." Chen Jingyun consoled him, "Once our Chen family gets through this difficult time, everything will be fine."

"Yes, everything will be fine." Chen Daoyuan smiled, and regained some of his former calm demeanor. He patted his nephew on the shoulder and said, "Let's go and meet Zheng Lingyun together."

Led by Chen Enze, the group headed towards Jintai Building.

Chen Jingyun looked around and didn't see any sign of Wang Qianqian, so he couldn't help but ask, "Manager Enze, is Miss Qianqian still not up?"

Chen Enze hurried back to report: "Master Jingyun, Miss Qianqian returned to the magic weapon repair shop early in the morning and said that she wanted to speed up the experiment of the small thunder and fire bomb project. By the way, she also asked me to collect a few more small thunder and fire bomb materials and find someone to deliver them over."

"She is diligent." Chen Jingyun nodded with satisfaction. He did not choose the wrong partner.

After a pause, he instructed, "Find a servant to deliver lunch this afternoon. She works so hard for her career, we can't let her down on food."

"This... Miss Qianqian has already told us about it." Chen Enze whispered, "She also asked for more spiritual rice."

Uh……

Ha ha.

Chen Jingyun's mouth twitched twice. This Wang Qianqian really would never let herself down no matter what.

That's the case.

Chen Jingyun put Wang Qianqian out of his mind for the time being.

After a short while, the uncle and nephew arrived at the reception room of Jintai Building.

At this time, there was already a girl waiting in the reception room.

She was wearing a set of azure blue female nun's uniform, which made her look heroic, neat and tidy.

Two maids from Jintai Tower were treating her with fine tea and fruit.

This girl was none other than Zheng Lingyun from the Zheng family in Lingbei.

As soon as she saw uncle and nephew Chen Daoyuan, she immediately stood up and saluted: "Lingyun greets third uncle."

Her father and Chen Daoyuan's wife Zheng Yiyun are siblings and have a close relationship.

"Haha, niece Lingyun, how come you have time to come visit your uncle today?" Chen Daoyuan greeted her kindly, "Don't be so polite, come and sit down."

"Hello, Mr. Jingyun." Zheng Lingyun did not sit down immediately, but took the initiative to greet Chen Jingyun again.

"Hello, Miss Lingyun." Chen Jingyun also returned the greeting in a proper and elegant manner. His mother's family was from the direct line of the Zhao family, and had no relationship with the Zheng family.

"what?"

After greeting, Zheng Lingyun, who was about to sit down, was suddenly stunned. She glanced up and down at Chen Jingyun with a slightly strange look, and her eyes showed surprise and suspicion.

"Master Jingyun's spiritual power is exposed like a sharp edge. Could it be that he has just broken through to the Lingquan realm?"

Chen Jingyun did not intend to hide it, and said calmly: "I took the risk of taking a Barrier Breaking Pill last night, and I was lucky enough to be promoted to the Lingquan Realm."

After hearing this, Zheng Lingyun's expression became even more surprised. After a slight hesitation, he asked, "Sir, you should know by now that you will have two competitions next."

"If we conceal the breakthrough information and use treasures like the [Breath-Retaining Pendant] to restrain our aura, we can at least gain an advantage in a duel."

"Sir, why don't you avoid me as your opponent?"

Chen Jingyun smiled and said, "Although there are conflicts of interest among the Chen, Zhao, and Zheng families, they are still in-laws in the final analysis, and in most cases, they cooperate for mutual benefit." "If I win the competition by using some tricks that are not worthy of being shown on the stage, not only will everyone not be convinced, but they will also think that I, Chen Jingyun, like to play tricks and have a cunning personality."

"If there is any cooperation in the future, they might be on guard against me and exclude me. Wouldn't that be more harm than good?"

Zheng Lingyun nodded frequently, and looked at Chen Jingyun with a little more admiration and appreciation: "Master Jingyun is as good as fairy jade, Lingyun has learned a lot. The same is true for running a family. Being clever may gain temporary benefits, but in the long run, you may miss out on many invisible benefits."

"However, this does not mean that I will show mercy to you in the next competition."

Chen Jingyun nodded and smiled, "It's the same for both of us. I will go all out in the battle between me and Miss Lingyun."

"By the way, although the young master has broken through to the Lingquan realm, he should not have a suitable mid-grade magic weapon yet, right?" Zheng Lingyun asked with a slight frown.

"I'm going to go to the Treasure Pavilion and check. I hope Senior Su happens to have some in stock." Chen Jingyun answered truthfully.

"It's a slim hope." Zheng Lingyun shook her head slightly. "The Treasure Pavilion may have one or two mid-grade magic weapons as its signature, but it's hard to find one that's suitable for you. Let's put it this way. If you don't have a suitable mid-grade magic weapon, then in the battle with me, I will also use a low-grade magic weapon to deal with you."

Chen Jingyun was startled and said quickly, "Miss Lingyun, there is no need to do this."

"What? You, Chen Jingyun, can live an upright life?" Zheng Lingyun smiled confidently. "To deal with a newcomer like you who is three years younger than me and has just entered the Lingquan Realm, I have to use a mid-grade magic weapon to suppress you. Even if I win, it will not be glorious."

"Miss Lingyun is a heroine. Jingyun admires her." Chen Jingyun said admiringly.

"Lingyun, will your doing this make Old Ancestor Chiqiu angry?" Chen Daoyuan was a little worried.

"Third uncle, I didn't agree with this in the first place." Zheng Lingyun shook her head. "Now that the Chen family is in decline, we just need to give up some reasonable interests. As the saying goes, things change over time. There is no guarantee that our Zheng family will not fall into decline one day."

"But our ancestor Chiqiu is determined to suppress the Chen family in this matter and won't listen to anything we say. I came here to say hello to my third uncle, hoping that he won't be too picky with me."

Chen Daoyuan smiled helplessly and said, "How dare I argue with Old Ancestor Chi Qiu? But I think Old Ancestor Chi Qiu is acting this way probably because of the grudge between him and my grandfather, and he wants to vent his anger."

"However, now that Master Jingyun has broken through to the Lingquan realm, this competition is fair and just, and I have no good intentions to feel uneasy." Zheng Lingyun stood up and said, "Third uncle, Master Jingyun, goodbye."

Chen Jingyun thought to himself that Zheng Lingyun was a very spirited and upright girl, many times better than Zhao Junfei. Perhaps they could really cooperate one day.

After seeing Zheng Lingyun off.

Chen Jingyun originally wanted to go directly to the Treasure Pavilion to take a look, but unexpectedly, he was stopped by Shang Jianzhou just as he walked out the door: "Master Jingyun, please stay.

Today, his face was rosy and I almost didn't recognize him. It was obvious that the cold poison had gone away and he was back to health.

"Congratulations, Senior Shang." Chen Jingyun greeted with a smile.

"I don't deserve it." Shang Jianzhou bowed repeatedly and said, "Sir, you are my savior. If you don't mind, you can just call me 'Old Shang'."

Without waiting for Chen Jingyun to answer, Shang Jianzhou took out a jade box from his arms and presented it to Chen Jingyun respectfully: "This cold jade is the thing that caused the cold poison in my body. Please accept it, it may be of great use to you."

As soon as Shang Jianzhou saw the jade box, he felt a little sad. Their Dongcao Gang had paid a great price to fight for the so-called cold jade.

He originally thought that with his innate energy, he could absorb the cold and yin power in the cold jade to further improve his cultivation and dominate the world.

However, he never expected that while practicing, he was invaded by a cold poison and almost went insane and died.

"This..." Chen Jingyun hesitated a little.

He didn't expect anything in return when he saved people.

“I hope Master Jingyun will not refuse.” Shang Jianzhou said sincerely, “This item is harmful to mortals like us and has no benefit. If it falls into my hands, it will undoubtedly be a waste of natural resources.”

"In that case, I would be honored to accept it." Chen Jingyun no longer hesitated, took the jade box and opened it gently.

A chill suddenly hit him in the face, and when he looked carefully, he saw a gray-blue uncut jade lying quietly in the jade box.

Huh?
Chen Xuanmo, who was in the heroic spirit state, didn't care at first, but after a casual glance he found something wrong.

This thing is probably not ordinary cold jade.
