Chapter 2120

"Let's go and report the good news to Granduncle!"

Zhong Qingpo said with a smile, "Granduncle and the others will definitely be happy that Zhong Family has a disciple who has reached the Foundation Building realm at such a critical time!"

Zhong Haoran silently watched Zhong Xiuhan leave. It was impossible for him not to have any thoughts in his heart.

However, Zhong Haoran felt at peace because he believed that Zhong Xiuhan was just helpless. Once she stabilized her realm, she would definitely come to find him.

Thus, Zhong Haoran turned around and went back to his room.

Zhong Haoran was a direct disciple of the Zhong Family. Unlike the low-level disciples in the medicinal garden, he had his own place to cultivate. This place could be considered safe. The previous two attacks that killed hundreds of people didn't involve this place.

Therefore, no one cared too much about Zhong Haoran going out for dozens of days.

However, the two deaths now involved most of the Zhong Ling Mountain Village. The place where the Aura Refining disciples cultivated began to become restless. All kinds of terrifying and uneasy auras filled the air. The Aura Refining disciples were all in danger, afraid that they would lose their lives if they were careless.

If it were any other time, Zhong Haoran's so-called loss of speech caused by qi deviation would definitely be comforted by his fellow disciples. There would even be more enthusiastic Senior Sisters who would look for some solutions.

But at this time, Zhong Haoran was first greeted with indifference, then astonishment, and finally … ridicule!

"Hehe, Haoran, I really didn't expect this. First there was Zhong Xiuhan, and now there's you. Both of you cultivated desperately for the sake of building your foundation, but now, your cultivation hasn't improved at all. That one became a cripple, and you became a mute. How sad!"

"Hmph, what do you know!

I just got the news from the master that Zhong Xiuhan has now turned from bad to good. Not only has her meridians been repaired, but she has also built her foundation. She's now our Martial Aunt! "

"She's already built her foundation, so why would she go back to the Zhong Ling Mountain Village?

Isn't it good to hide in the Orchid of the Valley Courtyard?

At least Xiao Hua didn't appear there! "

"Oh, right, Zhong Haoran, you seem to have a good relationship with Zhong Xiuhan!

You … Could it be that you were with Zhong Xiuhan for the past ten days?

Look, you're already like this. Not to mention that she hasn't built her foundation, even a normal Aura Refining disciple wouldn't take you seriously, right? "

"That's right, a toad lusting after a swan's meat. I have such thoughts too!"

All kinds of words floated in Zhong Haoran's ears. Zhong Haoran was speechless again. There was only a bitter smile on his face, and in the end, there was even some coldness!

It was as if he was using another pair of eyes to coldly watch everyone's performance!

The Zhong Clan's Master who was guiding Zhong Haoran's cultivation naturally knew about Zhong Haoran's situation. He painfully inspected Zhong Haoran's body, and sure enough, it was as Xiao Hua had expected. They simply couldn't discover Xiao Hua's forbidden technique, and it was also impossible for them to know the root cause of Zhong Haoran's muteness.

Not to mention that Zhong Haoran was an Aura Refining disciple, his Master wouldn't directly report this situation to Zhong Tianyao. Now was a special time. Everyone's hearts were hanging in suspense, and they all hoped that Xiao Hua would be executed so that they could escape with their lives. Zhong Tianyao also didn't have the heart to do chores. Therefore, Zhong Haoran's matter was like a small wave in the river, and after a slight surge, it disappeared.

However, Zhong Haoran was somewhat puzzled about the fear of the Zhong Ling Mountain Villa's disciples. Because he had interacted with Xiao Hua before, he knew Xiao Hua's kindness. Since Xiao Hua was willing to take out the Heaven Mending Pill for Zhong Xiuhan, he naturally wouldn't casually kill the Zhong Clan's disciples. Besides, Xiao Hua was with them the entire night during the recent dark of the moon. Where would he have the time to come to the Zhong Ling Mountain Villa to kill people?

Unfortunately, Zhong Haoran couldn't speak now, so he naturally couldn't defend Xiao Hua. Zhong Haoran also believed that the truth would come to light one day. He only needed to wait, and when that day came, he would definitely defend Xiao Hua.

Unfortunately, reality was always cruel. Zhong Haoran calmly faced what had happened, but the changes in the situation were far from what he could have predicted!

Just before the day he had to defend Xiao Hua had arrived, he had already noticed another change. And this change was something he didn't expect, or rather, something he had never thought of!

Zhong Xiuhan had already failed to build her foundation once, but this time, her foundation building was very smooth. Moreover, with the medicinal efficacy of Xiao Hua's Heaven Mending Pill, her realm after building her foundation was very stable. She only needed a few days of meditation to come out!

The first thing Zhong Xiuhan did after coming out was naturally to look for Zhong Haoran.

In fact, Zhong Xiuhan and Zhong Haoran lived very close to each other in the beginning. There were many Aura Refining disciples in the Zhong Ling Mountain Villa, and these Aura Refining disciples were divided into male and female groups to be managed. It was precisely because Zhong Xiuhan and Zhong Haoran originally had a close relationship that the two of them were put together when they traveled to the Country of Xi last time!

Contrary to Zhong Xiuhan's expectations, her appearance in front of the Aura Refining disciples actually caused a sensation. Many of her old acquaintances flattered her in front of her, and all of their praises were piled up in front of her, as if she was the darling of the Heavens.

The previous coldness when her meridians were completely destroyed was completely swept away.

This was beyond her expectations, and it made Zhong Xiuhan feel like she had returned to her hometown with honor. A kind of floating and fluttering atmosphere had always been permeating around her.

And this kind of overflowing atmosphere and feeling of contentment actually made her unable to open her mouth to look for Zhong Haoran, and she couldn't even open her mouth to find an excuse to leave!

Only when the sky turned dark did Zhong Xiuhan slightly collect her mood. Before she left, she casually asked about Zhong Haoran's situation.

The Aura Refining disciples all had a mysterious expression on their faces, and they quietly whispered in her ear, "Martial Uncle Xiuhan, you don't know!

Zhong Haoran is now a mute, he can't say a single word!

Moreover, he can't transmit his voice. Think about it, this kind of disciple … how can he still have a future?

According to the teacher, the possibility of him entering the Foundation Building realm is also very small!

Your Martial Uncle ah, have you ever heard of a Foundation Building cultivator who can't be mute?

Which Gold Core cultivator is a mute? "

There were also disciples who flattered her, "Martial Uncle Xiuhan, we know you want to help Zhong Haoran because of your old friendship, but you have to think about it carefully. You are now a Martial Uncle in the Foundation Building realm, how can you be together with Zhong Haoran, a mute cultivator?

You may be shameless because of your old friendship, but our Zhong Ling Mountain Village still cares about our reputation, and you Foundation Building cultivators also care about your reputation … "

"Tsk ~ don't talk nonsense!"

Although Zhong Xiuhan disdained the words of these former sisters, and she knew the real reason why Zhong Haoran was a mute, but … these words did sound reasonable!

After hesitating for a while, she still couldn't find any reason not to look for Zhong Haoran.

Zhong Haoran's hut was usually not lively, but it wasn't deserted either. However, when Zhong Xiuhan came, it was absolutely deserted.

The situation was the same as what Zhong Xiuhan encountered at her former sisters' place. A group of Aura Refining disciples respectfully saluted her when they saw her. After she casually greeted them, they saw her go to look for Zhong Haoran, and their eyes were full of surprise. This surprise was definitely not a kind of compliment, but a kind of admiration. It was more like a sudden realization and a kind of ridicule!

These gazes made Zhong Xiuhan's heart, which had just convinced herself, ripple again.

However, when she saw Zhong Haoran and his indifferent look, an indescribable feeling suddenly rose in Zhong Xiuhan's heart!

It seemed that … this Junior Martial Brother, who had followed her for many years, hadn't grown up yet!

The attachment that she had just born before had long disappeared. The sense of security that she urgently needed from Zhong Haoran had also disappeared after she returned to the Zhong Ling Mountain Village a few days after she entered the Foundation Building realm!

In particular, when she opened her mouth, Zhong Xiuhan felt that she didn't know how to address Zhong Haoran. Today, she had played the role of Martial Uncle enough.

"Haoran, are you … okay?"

Zhong Xiuhan said this with some regret in her heart. She hadn't seen Zhong Haoran for a few days, so what was wrong with him?

Or perhaps, he was mute, so how could he be okay?

"You … tell me about it with the Jade Slip!" Zhong Xiuhan knew that Zhong Haoran couldn't answer her question.

Zhong Haoran nodded, took out a Jade Slip, and handed it to Zhong Xiuhan.

"Oh, I'm fine." Zhong Xiuhan scanned it with her divine sense and said with a smile, "The teachers were very surprised that I could enter the Foundation Building realm, so they specially examined me.

You don't know how shocked they were at that time. Their mouths were wide open, and their eyes were also wide open. They couldn't believe that my meridians were repaired so perfectly!

Did you know?

Haoran, the Heavenly Pill's reputation is really not just for show.

Not only are my meridians repaired, but they are also bigger than before. I heard from the teachers that my magic power will definitely be higher than those of the same level in the future, and I have a higher chance of entering the Golden Core realm.

Haoran, there are very few female cultivators in our Zhong family who enter the Golden Core realm. The teachers said that if nothing unexpected happens, I will be the first female cultivator to enter the Golden Core realm in thousands of years … "

After Zhong Xiuhan finished speaking, he said very gently, "Haoran, this is all thanks to you!

However, I also swore a heart oath that I can't tell anyone!

So … "

Zhong Haoran listened patiently, and his eyes flashed with understanding. At this time, he very considerately stretched out his index finger and quietly placed it beside Zhong Xiuhan's mouth!

"Haoran, you're so nice!" Zhong Xiuhan's body stiffened, and then she snuggled into Zhong Haoran's arms.

However, Zhong Xiuhan clearly felt that the warmth on Zhong Haoran's body was far from what it was a few days ago, and she even felt a little uncomfortable in her heart!

This feeling made her feel very uneasy. Yes, she had just benefited from Zhong Haoran, how could she suddenly … become so unfamiliar!

This unfamiliarity was caused by the environment of Zhong Ling Mountain Village, the difference between Foundation Establishment and Qi Refinement, the difference between gratitude and love …

How could Zhong Haoran have thought that in just a few days, Zhong Xiuhan's heart would change so much?

It was even more impossible for him to know that the woman in his arms was thinking about so many things.

The two of them met for a very short time, and they parted after a while. Zhong Xiuhan did not set a time to meet Zhong Haoran again, and only said that she would come to see him when she had time. At the same time, she also hoped that Zhong Haoran could continue to cultivate and enter the Foundation Establishment realm as soon as possible!
