At this moment, all the unrest in Shuang Jiang’s heart was reflected in the points.
【Emotional Connection+2】
【Emotional Connection+2】
【Emotional Connection+2】
It was the familiar three consecutive additions that Su Jingzhen was ustomed to seeing.
He had gradually figured out that whenever Shuang Jiang’s emotions fluctuated greatly, it would trigger these consecutive point additions.
【Remaining usable points: 21】
However, he could understand why this was happening, as he had opened the first human secret repository so quickly, which would shock anyone.
He enjoyed spending time with Shuang Jiang, and it was precisely because of this that he liked her.Her points always umted quickly, and as long as Shuang Jiang stayed with him for a few more days, he believed that the Surging Spring secret repository would soon be opened as well.
As long as Shuang Jiang was around, Su Jingzhen’s safety concerns would be alleviated, and he could focus on cultivating and earning spirit stones, adding points to open the secret repository.
By the time Shuang Jiang eventually left, he might have already gained the power to protect himself.
Heaven had sent him this noble person, and he should cherish her.
After a long silence, Shuang Jiang looked at him and said, “It seems that this cultivation path, despite being ipatible with the environment, ispatible with you.”
“Practice well, and this path should be able to make you reach heights that your previous qi cultivation couldn’t.”
“Combined with your innate talent for alchemy, I think your future is still worth looking forward to.”
At this time, Shuang Jiang’s tone had be calm and gentle, with a hint of expectation.
Su Jingzhen’s heart was filled with surprise, but his face remained calm and collected.
He bowed to Shuang Jiang again: “No matter what, I still want to thank you, Miss Shuang Jiang.”
Shuang Jiang nodded slightly and didn’t say anything more.
Just then, Su Jingzhen’s stomach growled again, and he couldn’t help but reveal a embarrassed expression.
“Miss Shuang Jiang, please rest here for a while. I’ll go out for a bit.”
Shuang Jiang nodded again.
As Su Jingzhen turned to leave the quiet room, Shuang Jiang said, “Wait.”
Su Jingzhen looked at her with a puzzled expression.
Shuang Jiang’s face was slightly unnatural, but she still spoke calmly: “As I said before, I need a legitimate identity to stay here with you.”
“I still have some things to take care of here.”
“So, when we’re outside, you can im that I’m your Dao Companion.”
“Just act naturally, and don’t let anyone suspect anything.”
Su Jingzhen’s heart skipped a beat; he hadn’t expected Shuang Jiang to say such a thing.
However, Shuang Jiang’s tone was calm and emotionless, and Su Jingzhen nodded silently in response.
Yesterday, the Huayang Sect had thoroughly searched the entire Linjiang City, and Shuang Jiang might have temporarily left because of this incident.
After all, she was extremely suspicious.
Su Jingzhen responded, “If Miss Shuang Jiang isn’t afraid of me tarnishing her reputation, I don’t have any problems with it.”
Regarding Shuang Jiang, he was very self-aware; the term “Dao Companion” was just a title, after all.
As she said, it was only a temporary identity.
In the end, it was impossible to keep her, but this would undoubtedly deepen their connection.
At least the points he received from Shuang Jiang would be more stable from now on.
Shuang Jiang didn’t say anything more, and Su Jingzhen left the quiet room directly.
At this time, a line of golden small characters shed before his eyes, leaving himpletely stunned.
【Emotional Connection with Shuang Jiang: Slight Fondness
Reward points: 10
Level bonus: 2x
Shuang Jiang’s cultivation bonus: 2x
Remaining usable points: 31】
He had originally thought that being able to maintain a No Hostility rtionship with Shuang Jiang was already the best oue.
He never expected that today, he would be able to level up.
‘Slight Fondness’ was only the second level of Emotional Connection, and he wouldn’t think that Shuang Jiang would have such feelings towards him.
It was like Shuang Jiang’s previous series of shocks; this was just her initial recognition of him.
But the rtionship had progressed further, and the level bonus was a huge surprise.
Su Jingzhen, in high spirits, left the school directly.
At this time, Shuang Jiang, who was still in the quiet room, looked out the window, her expression bing slightlyplex.
“This guy’s performance in body refinement and alchemy is almost like a demon’s, and he’s bold yet calm in the face of danger. He’s indeed a talented individual.”
“If possible, I might be able to guide him, and if he can reach a bigger stage, he’ll definitely be able to shine with his own brilliance.”
Shuang Jiang murmured to herself.
Last night, as Su Jingzhen had thought, Shuang Jiang had been watching him handle the Lin Ping situation from start to finish.
She was quite satisfied with his performance.
At this time, Shuang Jiang had already begun to formte some ns.
Not long after, Su Jingzhen returned, and since the outside was not safe, he still wanted to keep a close distance from Shuang Jiang to feel secure.
This time, he had only spent five low-grade spirit stones to buy some food.
Among the food, there was arge amount of beast meat, which contained abundant blood energy that was beneficial for Body Cultivation.
Su Jingzhen rushed to the kitchen.
Before crossing over, he had enjoyed cooking for himself after work, and his culinary skills were still intact.
Moreover, as a first-rate alchemist, he believed that cooking and alchemy shared somemonalities.
Some alchemy techniques could be applied to cooking, and the effects were surprisingly good.
Soon, a strong aroma wafted from the kitchen.
Spirit rice, beast meat, and three dishes were arranged on the table.
Su Jingzhen came to the quiet room door and knocked.
“Miss Shuang Jiang, dinner is ready.”
Most cultivators didn’t have much interest in eating, but since Su Jingzhen had called out, Shuang Jiang gave him face.
When she saw the colorful and fragrant dishes on the kitchen table, she couldn’t help but look at Su Jingzhen in surprise again.
She only took a bite, and her taste buds were greatly stimted.
After half a stick of incense time, the two of them finished the meal.
Su Jingzhen felt satisfied, thinking that if cultivating could always be so leisurely, it would be a wonderful thing.
After dinner, Su Jingzhen practiced the “Python Scales Power” several times.
Today, he didn’t choose to continue alchemy.
The day passed slowly.
After resolving the morning’s issues, no one came to bother him about Lin Ping’s affair again.
He and Shuang Jiang returned to their previous mode of interaction.
Shuang Jiang was here, and at night, he could sleep peacefully in the kitchen, without worrying about any assassins.
The next morning, the fixed points increased as expected.
Zhang Xiu still had four points, while Shuang Jiang had increased to six points!
This shocked Su Jingzhen, and he hurriedly checked Shuang Jiang’s column.
To his surprise, he saw that Shuang Jiang’s cultivation bonus had already reached three times.
Su Jingzhen felt a tingling sensation on his scalp.
Shuang Jiang’s cultivation had recovered overnight!
A threefold bonus, what kind of realm was this?
In the eyes of outsiders, Shuang Jiang might still be the failed cultivator from Clear Wind Mountain, the ugly woman with a broken Dantian!
Another shocking point was that the level bonus of 2x and the cultivation bonus of 3x were not additive, but multiplicative!
This meant that from now on, whenever the Emotional Connection points were triggered, Shuang Jiang would receive six points at once.
This directly surpassed Zhang Xiu’s sister-inw!
Adding the fixed points from today, the remaining usable points had already reached 41 points.
Thus, opening the Surging Spring secret repository, which required 200 points, would be a simple task.
【497 days left until the host’s Dantian is permanently shattered!】
At this time, Su Jingzhen had subconsciously ignored the top prompt.
