From a scholar to a villain, I was a good person at the beginning

Zhu Shengwu flew down on his sword and landed on the ground. The sword cut through the air and returned to the scabbard at his waist.

“Come Forward”

He spoke simply, and a young man walked up to him with trepidation.

Zhu Shengwu casually made a hand gesture and muttered something silently. Suddenly, a light appeared in his hand and he pointed a finger at the boy's forehead.

【Root Revealing Technique】

The spiritual light traveled through the boy's body at a high speed, hovered in his abdomen for a moment, and then turned into nothingness.

"No spiritual roots, next one"

He spoke indifferently.

Before the boy could react, his fate was announced. He would never be able to follow the path of Taoism in this life and was destined to live out his days in the fields.

His heart suddenly sank to the bottom of the valley, and he left trembling, walking towards his parents with a dazed look in his eyes...

"No spiritual roots, next one"

"Next"

"Next"

“…”

As the immortal's indifferent voice echoed, the team became shorter and shorter, and many villagers sighed and beat their chests.

He cursed the unfairness of God for not allowing his child to develop spiritual roots.

At this time, it was the turn of a young girl. She was dressed shorter than the others, with her sleeves not covering her wrists and her trouser legs not covering her ankles.

A pair of rough straw sandals exposed the girl's dignity. She blinked her big watery eyes, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and her pretty face was very nervous.

Seeing the girl, the villagers talked about it.

Her name is Lin Muxi. She is very beautiful and has a nice name, but she is also very pitiful as she lost her father when she was young.

She has depended on her mother since childhood. Food was very tight at home, and they often relied on help from villagers to get by. The villagers were very sympathetic to the mother and daughter.

How much suffering and bullying must a widow with a girl endure without a man to support her family?

She suddenly turned around, looking for something, and soon saw Jiang Zheng, who also noticed her.

Lin Muxi showed her two little canine teeth and smiled brightly at him, and Jiang Zheng smiled back.

The two were familiar with each other. When they were young, the boys in the village often bullied Lin Muxi, this fatherless child.

Jiang Zheng couldn't stand it, so he raised his fist and stepped forward, but in the end he ended up with a bruised face.

From then on, Jiang Zheng became Lin Muxi's only friend in the village, and the two often played together.

Jiang Zheng also likes to play with Lin Muxi very much, not for any other reason, but because the other party also likes reading.

The children in the village don’t like reading, so naturally they can’t play with Jiang Zheng.

So the villagers could often see this scene: little Jiang Zheng leaning against the willow tree at the entrance of the village, reading with his head shaking, and the girl supporting her little head and listening with relish.

What made Jiang Zheng indignant was that the other party could recite faster than him just by listening.

Gradually, the two grew up...

The willow tree at the entrance of the village has one less pair of children and one more boy and one girl.

However, men and women were not allowed to touch each other, and the two would never read under the willow tree again. However, the girl often borrowed books from Jiang Zheng, and he was never stingy.

However, Lin Muxi only borrowed one book at a time, and she would never accept Jiang Zheng's extra book.

In a few days, she would finish memorizing the book in her hands and then go to Jiang Zheng to borrow a new book.

"Hurry up, don't waste time!"

Zhu Shengwu urged impatiently, and Lin Muxi quickly put away her smile and walked in front of the immortal. Because of nervousness, her thin body was trembling slightly.

Zhu Shengwu raised his hand and pointed a finger at her fair forehead.

Boom——!

Suddenly, Lin Muxi felt a buzzing sound in his mind and a red color in front of his eyes, as if he was in a sea of ​​fire. However, he did not feel any pain, but felt comfortable all over.

"Skylight! It's Skylight! Oh my god...a top-grade spiritual root!"

Zhu Shengwu shouted, his face changed drastically, and his fingers, which he had not yet put down, could not stop shaking in mid-air.

In mid-air, Hu Liang immediately flew down, as if he couldn't believe the scene before him.

I saw that Lin Muxi's forehead was shining brightly, which was particularly dazzling!

Suddenly, the villagers were excited.

"What's going on? Even the immortals are frightened?!"

"Stupid, can't you see? Lin Muxi is lucky to have a good spiritual root!"

"Oh my God, a fairy is going to appear in our Huya Village!"

But when their peers saw this scene, they were shocked and felt mixed emotions. They knew that from today onwards, the other party would become an immortal and ascend to the immortal mountain.

He became the immortal who was high above, while I stayed in this remote and barren place all my life, accompanied by the fields.

"This is a top-grade spiritual root!" Jiang Youcai recognized it at a glance and was shocked. How come he didn't realize that there was a child with a top-grade spiritual root in the village? He was really blind!

"Amazing! Kong Qing, what is this top-grade spiritual root?"

Jiang Zheng widened his eyes and couldn't help but ask.

"Spiritual roots are so-called natural endowments. Cultivators divide spiritual roots into four grades: low grade, medium grade, high grade, and ultimate grade. This child was born with a high grade natural endowment. He will definitely achieve great success in his cultivation in the future..."

Suddenly, Kong Qing paused, "Huh? This is..."

The golden light on Lin Muxi's forehead became brighter, and a flash of red light suddenly appeared, soon illuminating the surroundings red.

"Red skylight! Could this be a top-grade spiritual root?!"

Hu Liang's eyes widened, his neck thickened with excitement, and his face flushed.

Zhu Shengwu, who also recognized the top-grade spiritual root, opened his mouth in shock and could not utter a word.

Jiang Youcai shook his head repeatedly and couldn't help but sigh:

"Incredible... Incredible! I have only heard of this top-grade spiritual root in my life, but I never thought I would have the honor of seeing it with my own eyes today. It's such a feast for the eyes!"

"Top-grade spiritual roots [Red Fire Glaze], this kid is not bad. If he was born in the era when this immortal rose to prominence, he would be barely qualified to follow behind this immortal."

Kong Qing's voice sounded again, approvingly.

"Reluctantly following you? He has a top-grade spiritual root. Can you be more powerful than him? Aren't you afraid of biting your tongue when you brag?"

Jiang Zheng said this while staring at Lin Muxi, feeling extremely envious and happy for her at the same time. This way, she wouldn't have to suffer anymore, and wouldn't have to be bullied anymore... That's great!

"You dare to question this immortal? Do you know that there are even stronger qualifications above the best spiritual roots, which transcend the scope of spiritual roots? When this immortal rose to power, he dominated an era. What is a mere best spiritual root?"

"Back then, at the same level, I could kill a bunch of them with just one hand!"

"You are so powerful, why do you still occupy my mind and deceive my emotions?"

Jiang Zheng asked in a very serious and sincere tone.

"This Immortal... Humph, you are not qualified to know!"

Kong Qing snorted coldly, and after that, Jiang Zheng's mind returned to calm. No matter how he called, the other party no longer responded.

In fact, Jiang Zheng has always been very curious in his heart, what kind of existence is Kong Qing and why does it appear in his body?

Why would he ask for my seven emotions and six desires? He seems very powerful, why would he want my seven emotions and six desires and then rob them?

There were too many problems, so Jiang Zheng simply put them all behind him and didn't think about any of them.

After being shocked, without any hesitation, Hu Liang immediately took out a jade slip, made a hand gesture, and the next moment the jade slip emitted an emerald green light, and a ray of light shot out from the jade slip and rushed into the sky.
