Chapter 174: Opening the Spirit Gates
Two hours passed, but Su Lingxi still hadn’t seen Jiang Xianyue come out.
But Su Lingxi did wait for Luo Yunxuan to come.
Luo Yunxuan ran over in a panic. “Why are you still here?”
“Don’t you know what happened?”
“I’m waiting for Master… what happened?”
Su Lingxi rarely saw Luo Yunxuan so panicked, so she couldn’t help but ask.
“Something big has happened in the Canglan imperial family.”
“My trusted aide reported that Father Emperor already knows about you and Luo Chuxue. They have mobilized the experts of Canglan, led by the Grand Preceptor himself, to come and find you.”
Su Lingxi: “What…?”
Luo Yunxuan didn’t look like he was joking, and there was no need to joke about this matter.
“What’s going on? Did the Canglan Emperor come to investigate personally?”
Luo Yunxuan shook his head. “It wasn’t Father Emperor who took the initiative to investigate, but Ye Qingfeng who filed a complaint.”
“Damn Ye Qingfeng. He often came to harass Luo Chuxue in the two days you were away.”
“I’ve already warned him once.”
“He probably held a grudge and told Father Emperor directly.”
Su Lingxi’s face was a little pale. She had just come out of the Snow Realm and encountered this kind of thing again.
It was very possible for Ye Qingfeng to do such a thing.
Because Ye Qingfeng had warned her before. She hadn’t expected him to be so narrow-minded and actually do it.
“Then how long will it take for them to come to the Snowfall Sect?” Su Lingxi asked.
“If they take a spiritual ark, they’ll be here in about a day.”
“But I’ll buy you some time. I can buy you up to three days.”
“Pack up and get ready to say goodbye to Chuxue and the others…”
Luo Yunxuan’s face was not good. Obviously, this matter was very troublesome to deal with.
“Three days… is it so urgent?”
“Does Master know?”
Su Lingxi had indeed thought about leaving, but she hadn’t expected it to happen so suddenly.
“The Sect Master should know. This is not a small matter.”
“Prepare yourself well…”
Luo Yunxuan left after speaking, leaving Su Lingxi alone in the air, at a loss.
It was impossible for Jiang Xianyue to come out and see her, otherwise she wouldn’t have made her wait so long.
Su Lingxi walked forward and looked at the cold Sect Master’s Hall in front of her.
She reached out and touched the door that she had pushed open countless times, but she had never thought that one day she would be shut out by this friendly door.
“Master… with your magical powers, you must know what happened to this disciple.”
“This matter is all this disciple’s fault. This disciple will definitely compensate Master… I just want to see Master now… okay?”
“The time this disciple can stay in the Snowfall Sect… is not much…”
Drip, drip.
A hot tear welled up from the corner of Su Lingxi’s eye. She was actually crying…
But she didn’t want to cry at all. Why was she so sad?
Su Lingxi felt… it was more like this body that didn’t originally belong to her was crying… was sad…
On the other side of this door, Jiang Xianyue squatted with her back against the door and buried her head in her arms. She tried her best to control her emotions and tried not to make a sound.
But tears still fell uncontrollably.
Going back twenty years, her love was sincere and ardent.
But she had lost her most beautiful memories.
But time flows, and things change.
Jiang Xianyue could not pour her emotions into a person who looked very much like her sister.
This was disrespectful to her sister, and also disrespectful to Su Lingxi.
Because of the different thoughts of the two people, their hearts were blocked by a door.
Finally, the sound of footsteps came from outside the door. Su Lingxi still left. She had more important things to do.
After a long time, Jiang Xianyue opened a shallow crack in the door.
After confirming that Su Lingxi had completely left, she pushed the door open.
Looking at the shallow snow prints left by Su Lingxi in front of the door, Jiang Xianyue was a little disappointed. She gently brushed her snow-white hand, bringing up some snowflakes to cover the traces in front of the door.
“Three days is the limit that Luo Yunxuan has fought for. Chuxue probably knows about this too.”
“Just in case, I have to leave early.”
Su Lingxi thought for a moment and started to go back to pack her things.
“Let me tell you some good news. Based on your hard work, this system has opened a heaven-defying function for you for free.”
Xiao Bai’s appearance this time brought good news to Su Lingxi.
Su Lingxi: “What function?”
“This function is… you can spend a high amount of points to open an extra spirit gate for yourself or for others!”
“In this world, there are actually similar masters who specialize in studying the spirit gates of cultivators and have finally researched some successful cases.”
“The process of opening extra spirit gates for others is commonly known as Tongxuan (Opening the Spirit Gates)!”
Tongxuan, as the name implies, is to use external force to dredge the meridians and open the spirit gates of cultivators.
There is no need to elaborate on how important spirit gates are to a cultivator.
In the eyes of a cultivator, the number of spirit gates is not only a representation of talent, but also a representation of a person’s status and future achievements.
Whenever there is a disciple with a large number of spirit gates in a sect, that sect will carefully protect them and give them the supreme status in the sect.
Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that Tongxuan is a heaven-defying method.
Su Lingxi was very satisfied with this free heaven-defying function, but everything has its pros and cons.
She had already figured out Xiao Bai’s mechanism. Such a big temptation must have many restrictions.
Su Lingxi guessed right. Xiao Bai immediately added, “Opening an extra spirit gate for those with three spirit gates doesn’t cost much, but for those with more than three spirit gates, it costs at least five-digit points.”
“The specific amount depends on the talent.”
Su Lingxi gasped. “As expected. How many dangerous missions do I have to do to complete five-digit points?”
“Don’t worry. As your strength increases in the future, the corresponding mission level will become higher.”
“When the mission level becomes higher, the rewards will also be more.”
“Simply put, the points you earn in the Golden Core and Nascent Soul realms definitely can’t compare with those in the Soul Formation and Soul Splitting realms.”
“In addition, this system gives you a free chance to use it!”
“But it can only be used on others, and it requires less than three spirit gates.”
