Chapter 956: The Wife Who Has No Spiritual Roots in the Cultivation Novels
But before Lin Yanci could bargain, Zhao Qiutan on the other side had already taken out the things inside with swift movements.
First, he placed three porcelain bottles with the label "Qi Condensation Pill" on a tree branch nearby, and then he took out two yellowed but still faintly glowing talisman papers, which were obviously the so-called low-level talismans.
As for the spirit stones, Zhao Qiutan didn't look for them much. He just gave them 200 spirit stones.
“Is this enough?
Sign the marriage certificate quickly and we're even!"
Miaomiao took the thing, checked it, then looked up at Zhao Qiutan and shook her head.
"That's not enough. I want ten talismans, but you only give me two. Are you trying to get rid of a beggar?
Although I am not a cultivator, I do have a spirit maid. Do you think I am a beggar?"
Miaomiao snorted softly. She just wanted to ridicule this couple on behalf of the original owner.
Perhaps in this world, they did nothing wrong, and the original owner did nothing wrong either. He just came here to cancel an engagement, but ended up dying on the road. Isn't that unfair?
Zhao Qiutan didn't think twice and started to rummage through Lin Yanci's storage bag again, without noticing that Lin Yanci's face beside him had turned completely dark.
But even after searching through her storage bag, she still couldn't find another talisman. Her face looked a little unhappy, and it would be embarrassing to tell others about it.
So, he took out eight more cards from his storage bag and added them to the list.
Lin Yanci originally wanted to say something else, but a sudden slight pain in front of his eyes made him shut his mouth immediately. After confirming that the things in the dissolution of marriage certificate were correct, he reluctantly signed his name and pressed his fingerprints.
He kept his head down the whole time, not even daring to look into Miaomiao's eyes.
"Okay, I got the things. From now on, our engagement is cancelled and we have nothing to do with each other anymore."
Miaomiao put away the marriage certificate and compensation, and finally felt relieved.
But then, he looked at the two people behind him as if he had thought of something, but the two people no longer had the feverish expression as before. Instead, their expressions were solemn and stiff, as if their father had just died.
"By the way, the reason I'm here is because the fortune teller said that your horoscope means you're unlucky in marriage. Okay, bye."
Miaomiao left as soon as she finished speaking, without any hesitation, for fear that the two of them would realize the situation and take revenge.
"Qinghe, let's go back to Qingyun City tonight, and then we'll go back to Jiangnan tomorrow morning.
"My lady, I have the spirit stones. Let's build their teleportation array and go back."
Miaomiao talked as she walked, and seemed to have forgotten Shen Yanzhao who had just led her the way. However, after turning the path, she secretly waved to Shen Yanzhao in a corner.
"Come on, come on."
After Shen Yanzhao came over, Miaomiao handed the 100 spirit stones in her hand, which were not even warm yet, to Shen Yanzhao.
Then he rummaged around and took out two talismans and handed them to Shen Yanzhao.
"I know you're also an outer disciple, and it's not good to offend those two. I'm asking for justice for you.
Also, your pills are very useful, but I am a mortal. These pills can prolong my parents' lives, so I can't give them to you.
This talisman is also for my protection. I'm giving you two, I hope you don't think it's too little."
Miaomiao pursed her lips, feeling a little embarrassed. But there was nothing she could do, as she wasn't a very generous person.
After Miaomiao finished speaking, she nodded again and prepared to leave.
The friendship between gentlemen is as pure as water, so she can be said to have met a good person.
Shen Yanzhao stood there, watching Miaomiao leave so decisively. A smile flashed in his eyes, but then he froze.
What will he do if she leaves?
How can I stop her from leaving, or take him with her?
Especially since he was very sharp-eyed and sharp-eared, he heard the little girl say that she wanted to "leave and go home overnight", and he felt inexplicably panicked.
This was the first time he had someone he liked, and he hadn't even found a reason to stay with her. If she just left like that, and he didn't have a good excuse, he didn't know when they would meet again.
Just when Shen Qingci was considering whether to abandon the trouble and rape her, Miaomiao seemed to suddenly remember something and turned back.
Standing in front of Shen Qingci, he looked at him with an embarrassed look and asked.
"Brother Shen, I have something to trouble you with."
Miaomiao will never know how close she was to danger just now, but when she got close to Shen Qingci, Shen Qingci's heart was so happy and gentle, as if he had suddenly turned from a Tyrannosaurus Rex into a cloud floating in the sky.
"You tell me, as long as I can help."
"I'm carrying these pills and talismans, and I'm worried about the safety of the journey, so I want to find an escort agency that can hire cultivators at the foundation-building stage or above to escort me."
Miaomiao scratched her head. To be honest, she was afraid of death.
The original owner was so lucky that she even encountered a beastman riot that had not been seen in hundreds of years, so she should just take it easy.
"This is my first time in Qingyun City. I don't know if there's a reliable escort agency. Do you know of one?"
Miaomiao's words were like a ray of light, instantly illuminating Shen Yanzhao's mind.
He suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, pretended to be in deep thought, and then spoke slowly.
“Most of the escort agencies in Qingyun City only escort mundane goods, and very few can hire Foundation Establishment cultivators.
But where is your home?
My cultivation has reached a bottleneck recently, and I am preparing to go to the mortal world to gain some insights. If you don't mind, I can escort you back.
By the way, I’m at the fifth level of foundation building, so that should be enough, right?”
Miaomiao was stunned for a moment, then her eyes lit up.
"Really? That's great! Will it delay your work?"
"will not."
Shen Yanzhao shook his head, with a hint of smile in his eyes, gentle and calm.
"I'm not in a hurry. It's fate that I can escort you."
Miaomiao followed Shen Yanzhao on a free teleportation ride. When they reached the foot of the mountain, she had already started planning her days after returning home.
She could give the Qi Condensation Pill to her parents to replenish their bodies, so that her father could continue to earn money for her, and she could continue to be a rich and idle person who only eats and waits for death. Who knows who will die first in the future.
Afterwards, she distributed some spirit stones to the four maids around her. As for the disputes in the world of immortal cultivation, they had nothing to do with her from then on.
At this moment, Miaomiao had no intention of wondering why, despite Shen Yanzhao's striking appearance, no outer sect disciple took a second look at him when they were at the outer sect of Qingyun Sect just now. Even Fairy Qiutan didn't even glance at him.
At this time, she just thought that all cultivators were "devoted to the Tao and did not care about appearance."
"Brother Shen, after we arrive in Qingyun City, let's find an inn to stay in first and leave early tomorrow morning. Is that okay with you?"
Miaomiao asked, tilting her head, her tone full of anticipation for the journey home.
Shen Yanzhao slowed down his pace and walked side by side with her, the tenderness in his eyes almost overflowing.
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
He quietly gathered spiritual power at his fingertips, casting a thin layer of protection around the few people.
Although there were no monsters on the mountain roads at night, he was always afraid that something unexpected would disturb his lovely little Taoist companion.
Of course, Shen Qingci didn't think that giving Miaomiao the wrong name was a big deal. After all, Miaomiao was an ordinary person, and her name was given by her father, so there was nothing wrong with it.
If he really minds, then at worst, he can just let his master follow his example and accept him as Shen Yanzhao's personal disciple again...
