After the blood was fully absorbed by the small sword, Lin Qingyao formed another hand seal and struck the spiritual light onto the small sword. Suddenly, a blue glow emerged on the surface of the sword.

  At this moment, Lin Qingyao realized that she had established a strange connection with the small sword. When her mind moved, she felt as if she could control the small sword.

  Although Lin Qingyao knew in her heart that this sword was not considered a good sword in the cultivation world, it was enough to satisfy her... This was the first weapon she had after entering the cultivation gate.

  "Let me give you a name," Lin Qingyao said softly. "How about...Fuyao?" Fuyao rose straight up to the ninth heaven!

  Fuyao Sword naturally wouldn't have any opinion, Lin Qingyao's question was equivalent to a pointless inquiry, but Lin Qingyao was still delighted to give the sword this name.

  Lin Qingyao recalled the sword technique in her mind, outputting spiritual power while struggling to cast the spell. The Fu Yao Sword flashed blue light and flew into the air, continuously rotating in mid-air.

  But in a short while, Lin Qingyao had already put away the sword. She was only at the second layer of Qi Refining, and being able to make the sword fly was already her limit!

  If it weren't for the remaining medicinal effects of Jin Si Yin Grass in her body, she might not have been able to hold on for so long.

  At this moment, Lin Qingyao's face turned pale and she sat cross-legged on the bed, starting to absorb the thin spiritual energy in the air. After a long time, she finally came back to her senses.

  Lin Qingyao muttered to herself: "My cultivation is actually so low, even controlling the sword is difficult, far from that earth-shaking divine power... If a cultivator doesn't build their foundation, they can live for at most 150 years. I'm already 22, and have missed the best time for cultivation. If I don't make progress quickly, I fear that even if I live my whole life, I won't be able to build my foundation!"

  Lin Qingyao closed her eyes and meditated for a while, before long, the sky brightened up.

  Then Lin Qingyao got up to cook, and in Yun Qingzi's inheritance, it was said that during cultivation, one must not only cultivate but also cultivate their mind. If the state of mind cannot be improved, even with high innate talent and fast absorption of spiritual energy, it is difficult to advance.

  Lin Qingyao had just finished cooking when Shao Jingming woke up.

  He hadn't slept so well in a long time, and these past few nights, he always felt like someone was staring at him, making him feel like he was just a piece of meat on someone else's chopping board. How could he sleep? And then there were the mysterious scars that kept appearing on his neck, making him suspect that something had snuck up on him while he was asleep. So last night, he stayed wide awake, forcing himself to stay up.

  Only yesterday... he slept very soundly, this good sleep made Shao Jingming even more convinced that Lin Qingyao was a superior being.

  While having breakfast, Bao Tong said to Lin Qingyao: "Qingyao, I'm going back today." She didn't want to go back either, but there were too many messy things at home, and she felt that Lin Qingyao's state had been very good these days, as if the so-called divorce shadow didn't exist, which made her feel at ease.

  Lin Qingyao smiled and said: "Let's come again next time." Lin Qingyao felt the strong sadness in Bao Tong's words, so she comforted him like this.

  Bao Tong nodded and then said, "Qingyao, you can't really be a fool, you have to hurry up and sue Zhao Zhang, get back everything that belongs to you." In the past few days, she saw Qingyao's mood was not bad, didn't have the heart to mention this matter again, but today she had to leave, so she must remind Lin Qingyao once more.

  Lin Qingyao furrowed her brow and said firmly: "I don't want any of the Zhao family's money."

  This is not because Lin Qingyao was proud, but she also knew that even if she went to ask for it, the Zhao family might not give it to her. She had no power or influence, and even if she took them to court, she couldn't win against the powerful Zhao family in Chuan City. Why bother going through the trouble? Even if she could win the lawsuit, given the Zhao family's way of doing things, they would definitely try every means to take her life...

  She doesn't have enough power to contend with the Zhao family yet, all she can do is endure silently!

  Besides, she has her own space now that she's a nun, and she won't have to worry about money in the future. If she gets entangled in the Zhao family's dirty money and gets caught up in a lawsuit that's doomed to lose, it will only hinder her spiritual practice.

  Zhao Zhang... Lin Qingyao remembered this name, gritted her teeth in anger, one day she would make him regret it! Let him know what it means to be too late for regrets!

  Bao Tong saw Lin Qing's determined attitude and had no other choice, so he warned: "If you really want to sue the Zhao family, tell me, I'll find the best lawyer for you."

  Feeling Bao Tong's concern, Lin Qingyao's heart warmed up, and she said to Bao Tong: "Bao Tong, don't worry, I will never wrong myself. It's you who has to be careful after returning, it's been tough for you... Wait for me, one day, I will definitely help you take back what belongs to you."

  Bao Tong looked at Lin Qingyao in surprise, not expecting her to say something so domineering. Although he didn't believe it in his heart, he still couldn't bear to pour cold water on Lin Qingyao and instead smiled charmingly: "I'll wait for you."

  In the afternoon, Lin Qingyao went to send Bao Tong. Shao Jingming refused to leave Lin Qingyao's side and had to go to the airport together.

  It's just as well that Lin Qingyao lost the rented car, now Shao Jingming can drive her around, it's much more convenient.

  Bao Tong threatened Shao Jingming fiercely before getting on the machine: "Shao Da Shao, I'm warning you, if you really have any thoughts about Qing Yao... don't blame me..." Bao Tong's words were not finished, but the threatening meaning was already very clear.

  Shao Jingming made a bitter face and said to Bao Tong: "My aunt, you can rest assured, I absolutely have no such thoughts about Qingyao, I am truly treating her as a friend."

  At midnight, Xu Ran was already fast asleep.

  Shao Jingming and Lin Qingyao seemed to have made an appointment, meeting in the courtyard, then quietly walked out of the courtyard, out of Liu Hutong, and came to a dilapidated district next to Liu Hutong.

  This neighborhood was under construction when the boss went to jail for illegal fundraising, and later focused on developing a new city area. The land in this old city area was completely abandoned, and this rotten building was naturally left unmanaged.

  The abandoned building area was filled with discarded and dilapidated materials, the tall buildings were only two stories high. In the center of this abandoned building area, there was a vacant lot, Lin Qingyao decided to try to explore what was following Shao Jingming here.

  It is said that a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, and Lin Qingyao is now just like that.
