Rebirth forced to change sect, the real daughter she won numb
Chapter 60 The Unwelcome Poor Guy
"Ji...Ji Ruan?"
The smile on the Zhao family head's face froze, and he looked at the city lord in astonishment.
What does the other party mean?
Isn’t he here to congratulate Xiner?
Why mention Ji Ruan?
"Master Zhao, don't you know yet?"
Seeing Patriarch Zhao like this, the City Lord was sure that the other party obviously didn't know about Ji Ruan.
"Your daughter made a stunning debut in the entrance test of Biluo Sect, and her cultivation reached the late stage of Qi training, even surpassing the direct disciples who entered at the same time!"
"Old Zhao, you are so lucky to have such a daughter."
It was obviously a great thing, but none of the Zhao family members present were happy.
Even Zhao's mother said in disbelief:
"City Lord, are you lying to us? Ji Ruan... is just a country girl who knows nothing. After she was brought back, she didn't know anything. How could she have cultivated to the late stage of Qi training..."
Mother Zhao really didn't believe it. Although Ji Ruan was her biological daughter, she had never raised her. She had no affection for this so-called biological daughter.
On the contrary, after hearing what the city lord said, Zhao's mother was a little unhappy. Today was the auspicious day when Zhao Zhixin came back, so why mention Ji Ruan?
"Do I need to deceive you?"
The city lord was unhappy when he heard this, he stood up and waved his hands.
"Forget it, since you don't believe me, I won't get involved here, humph!"
After saying that, the city lord turned away.
"What nonsense are you talking about, woman?"
He quickly stood up and saw that the city lord had already strode away. The head of the Zhao family frowned and scolded Zhao's mother, then hurriedly trotted out, fearing that he would really anger the city lord and bring disaster to the Zhao family.
Mother Zhao stood there, frowning unconvinced:
"But... I'm also trying to get Xin'er back. Today is clearly a good day for Xin'er to come back..."
The more she spoke, the quieter her voice became, but Zhao's mother still didn't think she was wrong.
And in her heart, Ji Ruan could never be better than her Xin'er.
Zhao Zhixin did not make any move. At this moment, the words of the city lord were still lingering in her mind.
Ji Ruan has broken through to the late stage of Qi training.
How can it be?
She is obviously a waste with low-grade spiritual roots, how could she be able to cultivate faster than me?
You know, in the previous life, although I was a top-grade spiritual root, I only cultivated to the initial stage of Qi training in the Biluo Sect.
Zhao Zhixin didn't believe that Ji Ruan could cultivate faster than herself!
"Ah~"
While he was thinking, Patriarch Zhao came back with a sigh and shook his head.
In the end, he still failed to catch up with the city lord. He just hoped that the other party would not bear a grudge against the Zhao family.
"Father."
Seeing the head of the Zhao family coming back, Zhao Zhixin quickly stood up to greet him and expressed her thoughts.
"The city lord's words don't seem false. Maybe my sister has really become very powerful?"
"How can it be……"
"Mom, wait a minute."
Without waiting for Zhao's mother to refute, Zhao Zhixin interrupted her directly.
"I think instead of us guessing here, why not meet my sister? Then everything will be clear, right?"
"I haven't seen my sister for exactly one month. I miss her so much. Why don't you let me go to Biluo Sect to pick her up and take her home?"
Patriarch Zhao felt that what Zhao Zhixin said made sense, and he nodded in agreement. But when he heard her last sentence, he quickly shook his head, his face full of disapproval:
"No, how can I let you go?"
"You are the eldest daughter of the Zhao family, not her servant. How can I ask you to pick her up?"
Mother Zhao also nodded repeatedly:
"That's right. This is Ji Ruan's home. We just need to send her a message and ask her to come back. Do you need someone to pick her up? Do you really think you are such a powerful person?"
At this moment, Zhao's mother had forgotten that a month ago, in order to avoid getting into trouble, she had asked the head of the Zhao family to unilaterally announce the severance of relations with Ji Ruan.
Listening to the words of the Zhao family head and Zhao's mother, Zhao Zhixin's lips curled slightly.
Yes, so what even if Ji Ruan’s reputation reached the ears of the city lord?
In the Zhao family, she is still just a poor and unwelcome person.
……
"Xiao Ruan, are you taking a rest?"
In Biluo Sect, outside Ji Ruan's bamboo courtyard, Luo Jingcai gently knocked on the door.
Hearing the voice, Ji Ruan, who was sitting in the yard in a daze, came back to his senses, stood up, opened the gate, and raised his mouth to Luo Jingcai:
"Mr. Luo, why are you here?"
She had been recovering from her injuries during this period, so the cleaning work fell entirely on Luo Jingcai again. So Ji Ruan was quite surprised that Luo Jingcai came to her at this time.
"There's not much to do today."
Waving his hand, Luo Jingcai took out a jade bottle and handed it to Ji Ruan.
"Here, this is the Eight Meridians Replenishing Spirit Pill that Elder Liu from the Alchemy Pavilion has just made. I took it right after it came out of the oven. Come and try it."
Looking at the jade bottle in his hand, Ji Ruan had a complicated expression. After a few days, Ji Ruan had come out of the sadness of the broken spiritual root, and his thoughts were clearer.
So she thought more about it. Old Luo was just a servant. How could he get the Eight Meridians Replenishing Spirit Pill?
Looking up, Ji Ruan looked at Luo Jingcai with some concern:
"Mr. Luo, how did you make this pill..."
Without Ji Ruan finishing his words, Luo Jingcai understood what the other party meant and waved his hand:
"Don't worry, I got it in a formal way. I promised to help Elder Liu clean the alchemy furnace, and he gave me the elixir."
After listening to this, for some reason, Ji Ruan always felt as if he had missed something important, but he couldn't remember it, and felt very uncomfortable.
"Don't let your imagination run wild. Go ahead and try it. Remember to tell me if it works. Elder Liu has been refining this elixir these days. If it works, I'll bring some back."
Interrupting Ji Ruan's thoughts, Luo Jingcai gestured to Ji Ruan expectantly.
Hearing this, Ji Ruan stopped thinking about it and nodded.
Although she had tried it before and the Eight Meridians Replenishing Spirit Pill was not very effective, it was better than nothing. Besides, this was something that Old Luo had asked for for her, so she naturally would not refuse it.
After watching Luo Jingcai leave, Ji Ruan returned to the room.
Sitting on the bed, Ji Ruan looked at the pill in his hand.
It has been seven days since I was injured.
These past few days, she has been practicing, hoping to find some solution.
But her spiritual roots showed no sign of recovery, and her spiritual energy was still leaking out. If Ji Ruan had not stopped practicing, her spiritual energy would have been gone long ago, and she would have become a completely ordinary person.
“It would be nice if I could use the Eight Meridians Replenishing Spiritual Pill to repair one of my spiritual roots…”
With a sigh, Ji Ruan swallowed the pill, closed his eyes, and began to practice.
As the two techniques were running at the same time, the spiritual energy from the outside world was absorbed into Ji Ruan's body and circulated in his tendons and veins as usual.
But when he reached the spiritual root, he failed because the spiritual root was broken and he was unable to transform the spiritual energy into his own spiritual power.
But Ji Ruan did not give up. He transferred the medicinal power of the elixir to his spiritual root, lifted up a new piece of fragment, and glued it back to the previous spiritual root.
