Chapter 10: A dark and windy night

Exchange?

Su Jingzhe liked fair trades the most.

However, he was also curious what he had that could still catch Shuang Jiang's eye.

It seemed only this handsome face and strong physique?

Su Jingzhe was still seriously considering what valuable things he possessed.

Shuang Jiang spoke directly, "So-called Alchemy is nothing more than combining the energies within medicinal ingredients to maximize their effect, making them more suitable for Cultivators to absorb…"

She hadn't even stated her request yet, but had already divulged what she knew about Alchemy.

Su Jingzhe immediately cast aside the distracting thoughts in his mind, silently memorizing and comprehending.

With a clear goal in his heart, Su Jingzhe was incredibly thirsty for this knowledge at this moment.

Even though what Shuang Jiang taught was very fragmented and superficial, it was a treasure to Su Jingzhe.

Shuang Jiang quickly finished speaking, but Su Jingzhe had fallen into a special state.

It was like an Epiphany.

"He had an Epiphany already?

Could it be that I also have a talent for teaching the Dao? Or is his Alchemy talent too strong?"

Shuang Jiang looked a bit surprised, but she didn't disturb Su Jingzhe at this moment.

She silently returned to the stone bed to regulate her Qi.

Time flew, and in the blink of an eye, it was deep into the night.

The school was quiet all around.

Su Jingzhe was still in that state and had not yet awakened.

"The longer the Epiphany, the more one gains. The Alchemy knowledge I just spoke of wasn't anything extraordinary, was it?"

Shuang Jiang muttered to herself, growing increasingly curious.

She still chose not to disturb him, but at this moment, her brows suddenly furrowed.

She walked to the window and closed even the slightest gap in it.

"A dark and windy night, a perfect time for murder and arson.

Such a small Qi Refining Early Stage Cultivator is truly being targeted."

Shuang Jiang muttered, glancing outside, but still did nothing more.

She silently guarded the quiet room.

And the commotion outside ultimately did not spread to this place.

After a full hour, Su Jingzhe finally awoke from his previous state.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a pair of eyes as bright as stars looking at him.

"Did you comprehend it?"

Shuang Jiang asked, feigning contemplation.

Su Jingzhe, however, stood up directly and bowed to Shuang Jiang.

"Thank you, Miss. If I successfully refine the Qi Return Pill this time, no matter how many Spirit Stones it sells for, I'll give you half!"

Su Jingzhe spoke with extreme seriousness.

Shuang Jiang was startled again, nodding expressionlessly.

She thought to herself, this guy is really a bit foolish, but also cute...

As this thought arose, golden characters flashed across Su Jingzhe's eyes again.

【Empathy +2】

【Remaining available points: 51】

Su Jingzhe was stunned for a moment, but remained calm.

Before he could say anything, Shuang Jiang spoke again, "Don't be in such a hurry to thank me.

I said before, I'm just making a trade with you."

Su Jingzhe immediately became a little nervous, "May I ask what else Miss Shuang Jiang needs from me?"

At this moment, he truly felt that besides his unparalleled handsome face, he had nothing else to offer.

"I'm quite interested in what you teach those children.

I want a copy of everything you've taught in the past; that's not too much to ask, is it?"

When she said this, Shuang Jiang's tone was calm, but her heart was filled with anticipation.

In the past, she lacked nothing. When she truly needed something, she would just say so or take it directly.

She truly had no experience with this kind of situation.

Su Jingzhe was stunned.

His heart stirred slightly; he knew too well the origin of those things.

Whether it was the Dao De Jing, or the works of Laozi and Guiguzi, they were all the crystallization of the wisdom of Earth's ancient sages.

These things were inherently profound and abstruse.

In his view, Shuang Jiang's strength was definitely above Foundation Establishment, perhaps even Golden Core.

For such a powerful Cultivator to be interested in these, could it be that these things truly helped with Cultivation?

Su Jingzhe, having lived two lives, was exceptionally intelligent. He had previously thought that the excellent spiritual awakening of the children he taught was purely due to luck.

Now, with just a casual question from Shuang Jiang, he already had a different perspective.

Linjiang City was a small place and went unnoticed, but perhaps in the future, he shouldn't casually bring these out.

"What? Is this difficult?

But don't forget, you've already received my contribution."

There was a hint of slyness in Shuang Jiang's eyes.

Although her understanding of Alchemy was only superficial, it had indeed helped Su Jingzhe achieve an Epiphany.

She didn't care how much he comprehended, but there was already corresponding Karma, so she wasn't afraid that Su Jingzhe wouldn't repay her.

Su Jingzhe came back to his senses and smiled, "Is Miss Shuang Jiang sure that's all you want?"

Shuang Jiang sneered, "Otherwise, do you have anything else?"

Su Jingzhe awkwardly scratched his head. He was ultimately too afraid of death to say something like 'I'm as graceful as a jade tree'.

"This is simple."

With that, Su Jingzhe pulled out two books from a corner of the quiet room.

The books were nameless, but they were all classic sayings he had copied down from memory, as well as 'knowledge' from debates he had engaged in before his Transmigration.

Before, he had focused entirely on the school, so he copied these things down to help with memory and to impress people.

Otherwise, he would forget them over time.

He hadn't expected them to be useful now.

Su Jingzhe handed them to Shuang Jiang.

There was nothing to be nostalgic about.

Although he knew these pieces of knowledge might be extraordinary in the Cultivation World, he understood that he had no choice but to give them to Shuang Jiang.

After all, she was his benefactor. If they got along well, he could not only gain points, but once her cultivation recovered, she might become a super powerful ally.

Most importantly, he had already accepted her favor.

Taking the books, Shuang Jiang eagerly flipped through them.

She was immediately captivated by the content.

However, the excitement in her heart did not show on her face.

But it did show in the points.

【Empathy +2】

【Empathy +2】

【Empathy +2】

The continuously flashing golden characters directly revealed Shuang Jiang's inner turmoil.

But it also stumped Su Jingzhe.

This... was it that easy?

He gained 6 points in a row, leaving 57!

After casually flipping through a few pages, Shuang Jiang suppressed the urge to continue reading and put them away.

She seemed unwilling to let Su Jingzhe see how much she valued these things.

She asked indifferently, "This doesn't seem like something you could have written, does it?"

A test!

Knowing that Shuang Jiang's heart was not calm at this moment, Su Jingzhe had already prepared his excuse.

He asked, feigning curiosity, "Are these powerful Cultivation Techniques?

To be honest, I accidentally picked these up on Qingfeng Mountain that year.

The content on them is profound and abstruse. I use them to bluff students, but I don't really understand them myself.

I also asked Sister-in-law Zhang Xiu, and even she couldn't understand them, so we didn't pay much attention to them."

Shuang Jiang secretly scoffed, 'If even I, who have never heard of such Dao principles, cannot comprehend them for a while, it would be strange if you Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment Cultivators could understand them.'

However, she didn't doubt Su Jingzhe's explanation.

It was common in the Cultivation World for some treasures to fall into the hands of ordinary people and be overlooked.

If Su Jingzhe had said he comprehended and summarized them himself, then she would have felt like she had seen a ghost.

Because of this, Shuang Jiang could only lament her good luck.

However, she was still a bit naive.

She didn't even notice that if these two books were truly picked up, were the characters on them a bit too fresh?
