The Imperial Master had a sullen face and shaking hands, and without saying a word he took out another low-grade spirit stone from his storage bag.

The voice seemed to be squeezed out from between teeth: "Try again."

Min Shu waved his hands: "No, no, Master, I don't dare to try it. This looks like a good thing, it should be very expensive, I'm afraid of wasting it."

Her fearful and refusal made the Imperial Master dispel the doubts that had just arisen in his mind.

That's right, how could a young lady from an official family who was raised in the boudoir learn the art of cultivation, let alone dare to take advantage of him.

Moreover, when he thought of the speed at which Min Shu absorbed spiritual energy, the Imperial Master's breathing became rapid.

It would take him at least two days to fully absorb a low-grade spirit stone.

Min Shu absorbed all of it in just one stick of incense, which was enough to show that she had an excellent spiritual root!

He found such a good seedling that is hard to find in the world of cultivation!

As long as he was sure that she really had a single spiritual root or double spiritual roots, he would no longer have to worry about the end of his life in the future.

Anyway... the spiritual power she absorbs now will be used by him in the future.

Thinking of this, the last bit of worry in the Imperial Master disappeared.

He pretended to be profound, but finally showed a little smile on his rough face: "Take it if your master asks you to. Continue to absorb as much as you can."

Min Shu asked cautiously, "Really?"

The Imperial Master stroked his beard and said, "Of course it's true."

Min Shu took the spirit stone and said, "Thank you, Master."

A low-grade spirit stone.

Two low-grade spirit stones.

Three pieces...

When Min Shu had absorbed all the seven low-grade spirit stones that the Imperial Master had stored for who knows how long, and the physical condition of this body had reached its current peak, the Imperial Master's face had become so gloomy that tears could drip from his eyes.

Min Shu knew very well that it was impossible for the Imperial Master to give her a mid-grade spirit stone, so she decided to quit while she was ahead.

"Master..."

What lit up along with Min Shu's voice was an extremely pure blue.

The slender stone went from being ordinary to being extremely crystal clear, and a very deep blue color quickly climbed from the bottom to the top of the stone.

The gloomy look on the state teacher's face had been replaced by shock and ecstasy: "Heavenly spiritual roots, heavenly spiritual roots! This is a heavenly spiritual root that is rarely seen in ten thousand years!"

He turned his head and looked at Min Shu, his eyes full of greed.

If it weren't for the fact that there were many steps and preparations required before taking over another body, he would have wished he could end his life today and directly snatch away Min Shu's body with a divine spiritual root.

Min Shu looked confused: "Master?"

The national teacher came back to his senses, his eyes still burning: "Yuanshan, from today on you are my most valued disciple. Don't worry, follow me to practice. I will definitely pass on all my teachings to you."

Min Shu was terrified again: "But I had senior brothers and sisters before me..."

"What are they?" The Imperial Master paused, then changed his words: "Their qualifications are far inferior to yours. The techniques that I want to teach you are profound and powerful, and only you can learn them."

Min Shu nodded, not quite understanding, "So that's how it is."

State Master: "But you should just tell others that you have dual spiritual roots. If a tree stands out in the forest, the wind will destroy it. Don't let anyone know about your natural spiritual roots, otherwise it might attract murderous intent."

Min Shu looked envious and said, "I will listen to Master, but can't my brothers and sisters speak up?"

Imperial Master: "Except Master, you can't tell anyone."

As he spoke, he actually took off a bronze mirror hanging from his waist and said, "This mirror is the Qiankun Mirror, which can withstand an attack from a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage. Wear it on your body and be sure to protect yourself."

Min Shu was so grateful that he could not express it in words: "Master, I will definitely be filial to you..."

The Imperial Master was very pleased with her grateful look, and with a wave of his hand he took out a smaller and more torn storage bag.

"There are a few talismans and a few bottles of elixirs in this bag. Take them for emergencies."

Min Shu took it and said, "Thank you, Master."

The Imperial Master gave her instructions for a long time before calling a Taoist boy to take her to where she lived.

The Taoist boy led the way respectfully: "Little Master, this way please."

When Min Shu was resting in his yard, Su Leyao had just been sent to the bridal chamber.

As soon as her personal maid Lvliu helped her sit down, Su Leyao had already pulled off her veil and said angrily, "The Marquis of Wu'an is really going too far!"

Upon hearing this, Lvliu looked around quickly, then walked to the door and made sure that no one was outside before she lowered her voice and said, "Miss, you must not say that. If someone hears..."

"Was someone heard?" Su Leyao pointed at the man in a casual red undergarment on the bed and said, "Are you talking about him?"

"If he really wakes up, then my purpose of coming to Wu'an Marquis's Mansion to bring good luck will come true!"

Luliu looked bitter and dared not say a word.

The second young lady, Su Leyao, has always been proud and arrogant. Although she is only the daughter of a sixth-rank official, she always competes with the first- and second-rank officials and the daughters of the marquis in everything.

She must wear the best clothes, have a group of servants, and her talent and reputation must be as good as others.

If he were an ordinary sixth-rank official, he would not be able to afford to support a daughter with such expenses.

But the master's original wife was the only daughter of the Chen family, the richest family at that time. The dowry she left behind was not rich enough to rival a country, but apart from those royal relatives and nobles, there were really few families in Shengjing City with wealthier than the Su family.

It is precisely because of this that the second young lady developed a very face-conscious character.

At the beginning, she knew that she was going to marry into the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion to bring him good luck as he was his second wife, but she still wanted to gain the upper hand.

But Marquis Wu'an was in a coma, and the one who married Su Leyao was a big rooster. In addition, the wedding was held according to the ceremony for the second wife, not the original wife, so it was even more concise.

The second young lady has never been happy since the ceremony of worshiping heaven and earth.

On the way back to the bridal chamber, she had pinched her arm so hard that it was swollen. If she spoke any more, she would be beaten and scolded.

Moreover, if the second young lady knew that the eldest young lady had become the disciple of the imperial teacher...

Lvliu trembled and dared not even imagine it.

But whatever you are afraid of will come.

Su Leyao tore off all the pearls and jadeite on her head, smashed them and threw them away, then stepped on and crushed them to vent her anger. Then she sat back on the wedding bed and asked Lvliu with a gloating look on her face, "By the way, my eldest sister is also getting married today. I wonder if the He family has set up three or five tables? Can they add a meat dish to the table?"

The more she spoke, the higher Su Leyao's red lips curled.

She picked up a golden hairpin and poked the delicately embroidered phoenix bird on her shawl. "Go and take the unfinished dishes from the Marquis's Mansion to the He family. You are so anxious to pick out the meat. After all, we are sisters, and as a younger sister, you should let her taste the good things that she will never be able to eat in her life."

The nobles in Shengjing City all made vegetarian dishes in a variety of ways, and they felt that too much meat and fish would be inferior.

The second young lady couldn't wait to vent her anger on the eldest young lady and slapped her in the face in front of the He family.

If the eldest lady is really a wife of the He family, she will probably never be able to hold her head up again in the He family in this life.

But the eldest lady is no longer a wife of the He family, but a disciple of the national teacher who is above the monarch.

Lvliu watched Su Leyao becoming more and more delighted the more she thought about it, and she even laughed so hard that her shoulders began to shake, and her heart was trembling.

Su Leyao waited for a long time but got no response. When she looked up, she saw Lvliu's pale face.

She frowned and said unhappily, "Didn't you hear what I said? Why don't you go and deliver food to your elder sister?"

Lvliu knew she couldn't hide it anymore, so she knelt on the ground, kowtowed and said, "Miss, the eldest lady didn't marry into the He family, but was accepted as a disciple by the national teacher!"

The smile on Su Leyao's lips froze instantly.

She lowered her head very slowly, looked at Lvliu whose forehead was bleeding, and said word by word: "What did you say? Say it again."
