Loyal Heart Roaming the Skies

On Jiang Anan's birthday night, everyone had a great time except for Jiang Wang who regretted not having the time to showcase his cooking skills.

After the lively event, Zhao Rucheng returned home and sat in his study for a while before hearing a knock on the door.

"Thanks for your hard work today, Uncle Deng." Although Zhao Rucheng's sitting posture was casual, his tone was respectful and affectionate.

The steward of the Zhao family, called Uncle Deng, stood upright and replied warmly, "The spear that burned out the firewood was excellent. Talented people will always emerge in this world, but I feel like I'm getting old."

"How could that be? When we walk on the street, people think you're my brother."

Uncle Deng remained expressionless and only said, "There is an order to respect and hierarchy."

Zhao Rucheng opened his mouth, probably wanting to say something, but knowing it would be useless, he fell silent.

It was Uncle Deng who spoke again, "I never thought that at my age, I would go out just to buy a little girl's favorite candy."

Zhao Rucheng grinned, "Thank you, Uncle Deng. You did a great job."

Zhao Rucheng was proud, "Of course! She's my little sister!"

Uncle Deng looked at him and repeated, "She's very cute."

Zhao Rucheng's smile suddenly disappeared from his handsome and usually indifferent face, replaced by a hint of sorrow.

He remained silent for a while before saying, "I understand."

...

On the second day of Jiang Anan's birthday, Song Yiniang sent a jade bracelet as a belated birthday gift for Anan. Along with it was a jade pendant sent to Jiang Wang, probably to please him so he wouldn't stop Anan from contacting her daughter.

Anan didn't say much upon receiving the gift, but it was clear that she liked it very much and put it in her little box.

For Jiang Wang, his encounter with Xiong Wen dampened his pride after winning the first place in the Three Cities Debate for a year.

However, the rewards from this battle were substantial. First, after killing Xiong Wen, the number of Dao Yuan in the Tongtian Palace skyrocketed, and the foundation was not far from completion.

Second, after fulfilling the task of killing the Heart-Eating Demon, Zhu Weiwo generously gave him five hundred Dao Xun. It was said that Zhu Weiwo himself gained over six thousand Dao Xun in this task, but his Dao Xun count on the leaderboard did not increase but decreased, leaving only one thousand Dao Xun, and it was unknown what treasure he exchanged it for.

Compared to Jiang Wang and others who had to gather one hundred Dao Xun bit by bit, it could only be said that real strong people didn't have a hard time getting Dao Xun.

As for the last reward, it was a black candle that appeared in the Tongtian Palace somehow.

This was probably a treasure, but no matter how Jiang Wang studied it, he couldn't figure it out. Currently, the most important thing was still to lay the foundation, and he could only explore it later.

As a surprise from the five hundred Dao Xun, Jiang Wang naturally prepared a Qi Opening Pill for Zhao Rucheng and Jiang Anan. As a disciple of the Dao Academy, Zhao Rucheng could directly exchange one hundred Dao Xun for a Qi Opening Pill. And Jiang Wang hadn't used up his own exchange quota, so it was perfect for Anan.

As for Jiang Wang's Dao Xun, Zhao Rucheng readily accepted it and even asked with a grin, "Third Brother, I've set my sights on a sword worth five hundred Dao Xun. I've saved up a bit, but I'm still short. Can you help me out?"

Jiang Wang was now rich and generous, "How much do you need?"

"Four hundred and ninety-nine."

Just one point!

"... Get out of here!" Jiang Wang kicked him.But after thinking about it, he still sighed: "I still need to leave a hundred points of Dao merit for An'an to exchange for an opening pulse pill, and the remaining three hundred points are for you."

"No!" Zhao Rucheng stopped him.

"Why?"

"You can still give me the Dao merit, but think again about giving An'an the opening pulse pill."

Jiang Wang didn't quite understand: "Isn't it better to open the pulse as early as possible? If you're worried about the danger of the Transcendent level, then don't worry, I don't plan to let An'an enter the Taoist Academy."

In fact, in the process of cultivating in the Taoist Academy, they received a large amount of support from the court, and as a result, the disciples of the Taoist Academy couldn't refuse some mandatory tasks, such as cleaning up the official road environment, chasing and killing demonic people, and so on. Danger was unavoidable.

Jiang Wang had the performance of the Taoist stage in his hand, so he didn't need to consider the issue of martial arts, and he could also be An'an's teacher himself. In the end, he didn't expect An'an to become a strong person, he just hoped that she could be healthy and have some self-protection.

Zhao Rucheng smiled bitterly: "It's not that opening the pulse early is not good."

He hesitated for a moment and said, "If you want to give An'an an opening pulse pill, don't use the opening pulse pill from the Taoist Academy."

Jiang Wang's brows furrowed even tighter: "Is there a problem with the opening pulse pill from the Taoist Academy?"

"That's not it." Zhao Rucheng simply said, "The opening pulse pill that can be exchanged in the city's Taoist Academy is the lowest level opening pulse pill. I'm getting old and can't wait any longer. An'an is still young and can wait a little longer. If you want to give An'an an opening pulse pill, you have to give her the best one possible, so that she can have a smoother path in her future cultivation."

"I'm not saying that you can't succeed in cultivating with the lowest level opening pulse pill. Many strong people have also risen under the worst conditions, but it is still harder."

"If it was before this, I wouldn't have told you this. After all, in a place like Fenglin City, where people fight over opening pulse pills, it's hard to come by if you have one. But after you killed Xiong Wen, one of my elders said that you had a chance. You have this opportunity to grow. You can get better opening pulse pills for An'an in the future."

"An'an is also my younger sister. I hope she can have less hardship in the future."

Jiang Wang silently digested this for a while. He had always known that his youngest brother had secrets, but he had never asked. Just as he got the key to enter the Tai Xu Illusory Realm, these brothers never asked him anything either.

But now it seems that Zhao Rucheng's hidden secrets are probably even bigger than he imagined.

After all, not to mention anything else, just this insight into the world of cultivation is not something that an ordinary family can cultivate.

It should be noted that Fang Pengju, who came from one of the three major families in Fenglin City, even betrayed his benefactor for an opening pulse pill. But in Zhao Rucheng's mouth, this opening pulse pill was not worth mentioning.

He even knew that if he hadn't mentioned giving An'an an opening pulse pill, Zhao Rucheng probably wouldn't have said these things.

"Opening pulse pills are also graded?" Jiang Wang asked.

"Of course. You know, the main material for the opening pulse pill is extracted from the Dao pulse of demonic beasts. However, demonic beasts are strong or weak, and naturally, their Dao pulses are better or worse. Do you think opening pulse pills made from different grades of Dao pulses can be the same?"

"You got your opening pulse pill from Zuo Guanglie, it's not simple. My family's elder said that your opening pulse is perfect and has fully developed your potential."

Jiang Wang fell silent.

He silently observed the small earthworm spirit in his Tongtian Palace for a while, and couldn't see how it was related to "perfect opening of the pulse."

Isn't this the lowest level earthworm pulse?(Reader group 879927532 for "Redheart Patrols the Heavens". Welcome everyone to come and chat, discuss the plot.)
