I really am not a freeloader!

After that, although I didn’t get anything for myself, the food was good every time and I could even take some away for free.

Even spiritual fruits and the like.

Although he had never obtained the elixir, he had seen the young lady take it personally.

Otherwise, Zhao Qian would have run away long ago. Wouldn't it be a hope if he stayed in Anling City?

Are you sure you won’t die on the road or that you will be treated to such spiritual fruits in other cities?

and so……

go with!

Zhao Qian blended into the crowd.

It's a blessing, not a curse, but it's a curse that cannot be avoided.

The proverb of our ancestors is indeed correct...

The central lake area is very close to the inner city.

If nothing else, at least the public security here has improved a lot.

Zhao Qian simply washed the carbon ash off his face and then prepared to go to the appointment.

The young lady was said to have a very unpredictable personality, but as far as Zhao Qian was concerned, he felt that she was a very soft and adorable girl.

I just don’t know how such an outrageous rumor came about.

Don’t you think about this: if her personality is really so bad, why would so many people admire her?

Although status is one aspect, on the other hand, if one has a bad personality, how could anyone keep staring at him/her?

After a while, Zhao Qian relied on the familiar escape route in Anling City and took a shortcut to the outside of the lake area.

At this time, many people from Anling City were already resting in the lake area.

But the only pavilion in the middle of the central lake was guarded by several people.

And in the pavilion sat a girl in a lavender dress.

She has a rosy face, beautiful black eyes under her eyebrows, and smooth light blue hair draped behind her. If you look closely, you can see that she is the fairy in the lake.

She was wearing a lavender long skirt with a light blue lining underneath. Her hair was adorned with a jade hairpin. She had a sachet engraved with the family crest on her waist and a pair of small, exquisite shoes with cloud patterns on her feet.

The only pity is that she should have put on a pair of white stockings on her legs.

Ahem. Let’s get back to the topic.

The girl supported her head with one hand and silently looked at the beautiful scenery in the lake.

But the spiritual fruits at hand were not touched at all.

"Miss, he's here."

Said the woman who stopped Zhao Qian at the city gate.

"Hey, where is it?"

The girl was stunned for a moment and then looked around happily.

"there……"

The woman pointed to a crowd, and sure enough, she could see Zhao Qian, who was looking around furtively.

"Auntie Han, you have a very good eye." The girl praised sincerely.

Aunt Han shook her head: "If Miss can practice, then she will definitely be better than me."

But then she shut her mouth. How could she talk about this?

The young lady is very concerned about the fact that she cannot practice easily.

"It's okay, Aunt Han." The girl shook her head.

"What Zhao Qian said is indeed true. Even if I can't practice, I still have you and father by my side, which is enough."

"I am the one who talks too much, miss."

"If you talk about this again, I'll get angry."

The girl pursed her thin lips slightly.

When Aunt Han saw this, a smile flashed across her cold face.

"Yes, ma'am."

"Hey, here he comes!"

Seeing Zhao Qian walking towards here, the girl waved her hands happily.

Chapter 7 An Xinran

"No, my dear sister, please don't be so high-profile..."

Zhao Qian walked into the pavilion and hurriedly stopped the girl's cheerful movements.

But this place is actually very eye-catching.

There is only one pavilion in the center of the lake in the central lake area, and it is occupied, so naturally there are many people watching here.

"Hey, isn't it a bit exciting to see you?"

The girl took out a fruit from the fruit plate that had been placed in front of her for a long time and placed it in Zhao Qian's hand.

"Here, isn't this what you've been dreaming about? I brought you a few this time."

Ah this...

Looking at Aunt Han's murderous gaze, Zhao Qian admitted that he was a little scared.

But if I don’t take it, this person will probably remember it…

"Thank you very much, Miss An..."

"hey-hey."

The girl smiled and hurriedly pulled him to sit down in the pavilion.

Zhao Qian had no choice but to sit down.

The girl's name is An Xinran, and she is the only daughter of the city lord's mansion.

It is the kind of thing that you are afraid of dropping if you hold it in your hand, and afraid of melting if you hold it in your mouth.

However, as the lord of the city, Anping is the person with the highest cultivation level in the city.

His daughter was unable to practice, and the reason was simply because...

"How is your health now?" Zhao Qian asked with some concern.

The girl's soul would always grow wildly and uncontrollably, and her body could not absorb spiritual energy. Even if she absorbed spiritual energy tonight, it would disappear after one night.

Therefore, Anping used a lot of resources to control the rapid growth of his daughter's soul power, and wanted her to reach the Golden Core realm to control her own soul.

Spiritual fruits are used to strengthen the body, and elixirs are used to suppress the power of the soul.

But these are just a drop in the bucket.

The girl can only survive in this world by taking drugs.

Because the spiritual fruit no longer has any effect on her. Over the years, drug resistance has become deeply rooted, and her body is no different from eating ordinary fruit when eating spiritual fruit.

This is because the body has to keep up with the soul, but because it cannot absorb spiritual energy, the body will never be able to keep up.

Eventually her body will be crushed by the power of her soul, and she will fall into a deep sleep.

"Much better. These past few days, I've been doing what you said, going out for a walk after dinner every day. I've also been doing the exercises you recommended to me before, and I feel much better now."

An Xinran said happily.

"That's good."

Zhao Qian took a bite of the spiritual fruit and had to admit that it tasted quite like an apple.

It's just that there's a lot more juice in it than in an apple.

"Did you ask the questions I asked you to ask before?" Zhao Qian asked.

What she wanted to ask before was what happened before she was born. This was not something she wanted her to do, but was the goal of the system.

【Self-Reliant System】

[Host: Zhao Qian]

[Cultivation: None]

[Spiritual roots: Five elements mixed spiritual roots]

【Goal 1: Buy a house. 】

[Node 1: Solve An Xinran's physical problems and you will get a house deed as a reward.]

[Current progress: Obtaining the cause of the problem. ]

[Node 50: Solve the problem of high-value characters and return them to normal life, and you will be rewarded with Lingshi. ]

[Current progress: in progress...]

This is Zhao Qian’s system interface.

It can be said to be extremely simple.

However, this function is enough for Zhao Qian. As long as the required information is fully supplied, it will list the solutions in detail.

The methods of physical exercise recommended before and the special movements taught are suggestions from the system.

Although Zhao Qian felt that this movement was very similar to the Five Animal Exercises in his previous life, he no longer paid attention to it after observing that she did it without any problem.

But now it seems to be working quite well.

"According to my father, when he was pregnant with me, my parents seemed to be traveling around the continent and visited many places."

[Please ask if you have been to Yinyue Pool in the Western Continent. 】

"Where is Yinyue Pond?"

An Xinran shook her head slightly. She did not ask in detail.

"...Been there."

But Aunt Han on the side spoke out.

"Eh?"

An Xinran looked at Aunt Han.

"I was working in the An family at that time, Miss, and after arriving at Yinyue Pond, I sent a letter to the old patriarch."

"Grandpa?"

Aunt Han nodded slightly.

The old city lord is now traveling all over the continent just to save his precious granddaughter's life.

In fact, An Ping was the only one left in the entire City Lord's Mansion. An Xinran's mother and the old City Lord were basically not in the city.

But the deterrent it brings is also enormous.

After all, a family with three powerful people in the Return to Void Realm is enough to suppress an entire city.

Fortunately, the An family has no particular intention of exploiting the people.

[Integrating, please wait...]

[Integration completed, calculating the best solution...]

[Plan completed: 1. Swallow the body-refining holy fruit 'Red Blood Fruit' to achieve a balance between body and soul and relieve stress.

2. Cut off one soul and one spirit, destroying the integrity of the soul so that it no longer grows.

3. Practice the soul-refining technique to turn the soul into nutrients to grow your cultivation. 】

……

Zhao Qian fell silent, and immediately ruled out the second option. He directly slashed his own soul with a sword. This was an option that would only be chosen when one was at a dead end in any world.

But An Xinran is still very young now, and looks much younger than herself.
