Chapter 152 Rare Spiritual Roots

Mo Fengwu's ability in growing medicine and taking care of spiritual herbs is almost catching up with the "spiritual planting" in the six arts of cultivating immortals.

Having her help was also a good thing for Mo Juren, so he said to Madam Wu,
"That's fine. Then when the time comes, I'll have to trouble you, He'er, to persuade Fengwu."

"Please rest assured, my husband. Fengwu is still very obedient to He'er."

Afterwards, the two returned to Wenjian Villa. The Fifth Lady had indeed listened to Mo Juren's words and began to arrange various affairs as the host.

Mo Juren found Zhang Qing alone and asked,

"Qing'er, have you been okay in Wenjian Villa these days? Have you seen your son?"

Zhang Qing replied happily,

"Master, I have seen him. Wuyou is living so well in Wenjian Villa that he almost forgot about his mother."

Mo Juren pretended to ask casually,
"What about the five articles on martial arts I gave you? Have you mastered any of them?"

Zhang Qing replied awkwardly,
"Qing'er has only practiced the first part of those techniques, and hasn't really mastered anything yet."

"But Wuyou is very familiar with these techniques and is even teaching his mother how to do it."

When Zhang Qing talked about his son, he started to talk nonstop.

"He said that his palms felt hot when he practiced the second and fifth exercises, and he thought he was practicing incorrectly. He just wanted to know if his mother would feel the same way..."

"What did you say?! Zhang Wuyou's palms became hot when he was practicing!?" Mo Juren interrupted her.

"Yes, Master. Wuyou said that he just discovered this recently. He has always been timid and didn't dare to tell you. Master, is there anything wrong with this?"

Mo Juren concealed the joy in his eyes. He didn't expect that he could find someone with spiritual roots in the Jingjiao Society so quickly, and it was an acquaintance, who turned out to be Ma Kongtian's son!
So he said to Zhang Qing,
"No, this is a good thing. Just ask him to explain it to the gentleman according to the rules. But don't tell anyone else about this for now. You will know why later."

"Yes, sir, Qing'er understands."

"Please try to master the other techniques as well. If your palms become hot, tell me."

"Okay sir."

Mo Juren then went to find the Fifth Madam and told her about the reaction Zhang Wuyou would experience when practicing the Enlightenment technique.

For this kind of situation, Wenjian Villa has already drawn up a series of rules. In the future, he will be selected and taught by a special master.

The Fifth Lady was also very happy that she could find the disciple that Mo Juren needed so quickly.

Originally, Mo Juren also thought that it would take at least two or three years to find a disciple with spiritual roots.

Therefore, he only regarded Wenjian Villa as a backup plan, and the appearance of Zhang Wuyou was an accident.

Unfortunately, Mo Juren needs to focus on improving his own cultivation now, so the matter of accepting a disciple will have to be put on hold for a while.

In the next two days, Mo Juren personally taught Zhang Qing to practice the five exercises in Wenjian Villa in order to confirm her physical condition more quickly.

After all, Mo Juren had let the seven girls in the Mo family try these techniques, but they saw no effect at all and could not sense any spiritual energy at all.

With Zhang Wuyou as an example, Zhang Qing should also have great hope.

In this way, under the personal instruction of Mo Juren, Zhang Qing quickly went through the five exercises and finally came to the conclusion.

Zhang Qing is indeed a person with spiritual roots. When she practices the second, third, fourth, and fifth techniques, she can feel the heat in her palms, indicating that she has the four spiritual roots of wood, water, fire, and earth! And his son Zhang Wuyou suspected that he had the rare dual-attribute true spiritual roots of wood and earth! Because the Fifth Madam had secretly confirmed that his palms would only feel hot when he practiced the second and fifth techniques.

When Mo Juren was in Jingzhou, he also used Changchun Gong to test many mortals, and he knew very well that spiritual roots were rare and hard to find.

As for this kind of mother and son who both have spiritual roots, it is conceivable that it is a miracle that Mo Juren could encounter such a thing.

Mo Juren decided to find a chance to tell her about Zhang Qing's ability to practice cultivation after returning to the cave.

During these two days, Mo Juren had not received any news about the third wife's safe return, until finally the fourth wife sent a message confirming that the third wife was most likely missing.

Although this is most likely some kind of secret of the Third Lady, the Mo people are not allowed to explore it.

But she was his wife after all, and it would be inappropriate if he really ignored her. As a last resort, Mo Juren decided to go to Quling City to check it out in person.

Of course, the prerequisite is to ensure his own safety. After all, he doesn't want to offend the legendary foundation-building cultivator like Grandma Jinhua.

The Liu family of Quling City has been brutally wiped out, so I guess the third lady will never go back to Changfengmen.

But Changfeng Clan is the local boss of Quling City after all. Going to ask them some questions would surely be more effective in finding the third lady.

Mo Juren rode the wind and quickly arrived at Quling City, and walked to Liu Mansion with ease. However, this place had become the headquarters of Changfeng Sect.

In the hall where Mo Juren eavesdropped on the secret discussion between Liu Feng and his master that day, the new leader of Changfeng Sect, Wang Dong, was sitting in the leader's seat, listening to his subordinates reporting on gang affairs.

Although it was a case of new people replacing old ones, Wang Dong successfully became the sect leader with the help of Mo Juren, but his style seemed to be almost the same as Liu Feng at that time.

Mo Juren shook his head and smiled bitterly, then continued to climb onto the roof, peeling off the tiles and monitoring Wang Dong's every move.

After all his men left, Wang Dong returned to the backyard alone.

Mo Juren easily flipped down from the roof, followed behind Wang Dong, and once again said the words that made him remember so deeply,

"In this life, some opportunities are fleeting..."

Wang Dong was shocked when he heard this, but he didn't dare to look back. He asked hesitantly,
"Is it you? Is it that hero?"

Mo Juren smiled and said,
"I see that you, the leader of the gang, have done a good job. You finally took my words to heart."

Wang Dong clasped his fists and thanked the front.
"I am where I am today, all thanks to your help that day, you will never forget it. I wonder what you want from me?"

"Nothing, I just want you to find someone for me."

"Please tell me, sir. I, Wang Dong, will do my best to help you with this little matter."

"You should know Liu Feng's sister Liu Ya. She returns to Quling City every once in a while. It's not a secret. Can you find out her recent whereabouts?"

Wang Dong immediately assured,

"Please give me two hours, and everyone in Changfeng Sect will do their best to help you find Liu Ya."

"No, you only have one hour." Mo Juren said coldly.
Wang Dong paused again after hearing this, and then replied,

"...Yes, sir. I will arrange it right now."
