After the five of them finished eating, Zu Zhenlin quickly paid the bill, and then returned to the academy. Li Ji and the others still had some aftermath to deal with about this mission, so they left first. Zu Zhenlin wanted to strike while the iron was hot and break through the realm as soon as possible, so he returned to Lin Yunxuan and continued to practice. And Lin Xi rushed to class, Li Cao rested today and went directly back to the school's residence.

After five years of teaching, the newly enrolled students have already stepped into the threshold of study, mastered the essentials of study, and know the benefits and disadvantages, so they no longer have to attend classes every day. Of course, in order to avoid students slacking off and solve the problems they encounter in a timely manner, the college stipulates that gentlemen should attend classes for at least five days a month, and there is no limit to which day of the month the class is arranged by the gentlemen. Mr. Li Cao's arrangement is arranged in the first three days of each decade, a total of nine days. Of course, students can also ask questions to their husbands in their spare time. Or ask the gentleman to protect the Dharma for him when he breaks the realm.

Li Cao practiced diligently and diligently every day, and did not dare to slack off in the slightest, compared with Zu Zhenlin. He did this in order to live up to his hard work, Zhao Hong treats students seriously and responsibly, especially Li Cao, who is even more helpful. Of course, it is not only that, but also because he has two obsessions in his heart. First, Zu Zhenlin was rescued by Grandma Li, but then a catastrophe fell from the sky, and the village was slaughtered overnight, except for himself, no one was spared. When he was dying that day, he actually hated Zu Zhenlin in his heart, because he thought that the murderer of the village was recruited by Zu Zhenlin. After that, the facts told Li Cao that he was wrong to blame the good people, and Zu Zhenlin also suffered an unjustified disaster. Zu Zhenlin did not choose to stay out of the matter, but after saving himself, he did his best to avenge the villagers. Therefore, Li Cao has always felt guilty in his heart, and secretly determined to do something for Zhenlin in the future.

The other is that although the murderers who directly participated in the massacre of the village have been eliminated, and Lao Caitou, who has been hidden for many years, has been exposed and ambushed, according to King Yan, there is still a mastermind behind this matter, but the clues have been broken, and it is impossible to find out who the mastermind is. Li Cao was unwilling, thinking about improving his realm strength, sooner or later, the mastermind would not be able to hold back and take action again, and then he could find the mastermind behind the scenes, and truly avenge Grandma Li, Grandpa Yang and many villagers.

However, Li Cao also understood that he should not rush into his cultivation, otherwise it would easily backfire, and if he disturbed his state of mind, it would be a bad thing. Fortunately, he has his own way to be relaxed, and that is to hatch the eggs of the divine beasts he bought.

Since the gray and non-slippery beast egg was bought, Li Cao has been using spirit stones to breed. At the beginning, I was full of hope and interest, but half a year later, the Divine Beast Egg was still the same, but when it absorbed the aura, it flickered unchanged. I can't help but feel disappointed, feeling that the life inside the egg may really be dead. Li Cao wanted to give up, but thinking of the spirit stones that had been consumed, if he got nothing, he felt a little distressed, and felt sorry for Zu Zhenlin. And the beast egg is not without reaction, there will be light up, and it is inevitable that there will be luck, so I choose to continue to conceive.

Another half a year passed, and just when Li Cao was about to completely despair, the divine beast egg finally changed, and when it absorbed the aura, the light flickered more frequently. Hope was rekindled, and Li Cao began to fix the incubation time, using spirit stones to feed every three days, and persevered. As time passed, the skin of the beast's egg began to gradually fall off, becoming crystal smooth and exuding a trace of life. When Zu Zhenlin and Lin Xi saw the appearance of the divine beast egg, they were also very curious about what kind of divine beast was bred inside.

Li Cao returned to his room and took out the wooden box containing the eggs of the divine beast. Since the Divine Beast Egg emits the breath of life, it can no longer be put into the storage ring, which will cause the storage ring space to collapse, and then the contents inside will also be reduced to nothing. He specially found a hard wooden box to store, which was covered with cotton cloth to prevent the eggshells from breaking. Although the beast egg doesn't feel so fragile, it's a precautionary measure, and if something goes wrong, you'll want to cry without tears.

After five years of gestation, the eggs of the divine beast are already crystal clear all over, warm and moist, and the breath of life is rich. When you look at it in the sun, you can see the blurred texture inside.

Li Cao carefully took out the egg and placed it with the spirit stone. At the beginning, he didn't know much about cultivation, and he didn't understand the value of spirit stones at all, and Zu Zhenlin gave them too casually, making him mistakenly think that they were like worldly money, although important but not precious. As he embarked on the path of cultivation and climbed high step by step, he finally understood the preciousness of the spirit stone, but it was too late to regret it, so he could only continue, otherwise he would end up in a situation where chickens and eggs were beaten. Zu Zhenlin could see it, and comforted Li Cao lightly, the spirit stones were to be used anyway. The plain words let Li Cao know more and more about Zu Zhenlin's illustrious background, but because of Zhenlin's warm and warm temperament, Li Cao did not have a gap in his heart, and he was as close as ever.

Li Cao held his breath and condensed, running the exercises, the aura in his body was like a stream gurgling, his fingers were together, and the green aura slowly came out, between the beast egg and the spirit stone, if there was a green silk thread to build a small bridge, the aura in the spirit stone began to flow into the beast egg continuously.

After a stick of incense, the eggs of the divine beast lit up with fluorescence, and the internal scene gradually became clear. Looking intently, it looks like a chick spreads its wings. In the past three months, Li Cao has been reacting like this, and Li Cao is used to it, stabilizing his mind and maintaining the orderly output of aura.

The sun is setting in the west, and the sun is yellow.

Zu Zhenlin finished his practice, came out of Lin Yunxuan, and rushed to the cafeteria to eat. He had already touched the threshold of breaking through the realm, and he could step into the realm of liquid at any time. However, it is precisely because of this that it is easy for people to have the illusion that they can succeed if they work harder, so they are eager to break through the situation, making them impetuous, unable to succeed, and delaying the time to move forward. If you don't have a problem with your mood, your desire to go further will become wishful thinking. Zu Zhenlin has been practicing in the family for more than ten years, and his father and uncle have personally taught his experience, so of course he knows this kind of taboo. Stick to your heart, and you will break the bottleneck naturally. Therefore, Zu Zhenlin followed the steps and did not deliberately change the practice time.

Walking on the path to the cafeteria, the college has already dispersed, and there are not many pedestrians, so it is estimated that they have all arrived at the cafeteria. Out of the corner of Zu Zhenlin's eye, he suddenly saw a familiar figure in the small pavilion by the lake, and after careful inspection, he found that it was Lin Xi, chatting with a slender woman.

In the past five years, Zu Zhenlin, Li Cao and Lin Xi can be said to get along day and night and understand each other. The three of them focused on practice, and none of them had a woman's relationship. Zu Zhenlin is unforgettable touch, Li Cao is thinking about the princess of Yanguo, as for Lin Xi, there seems to be no woman to worry about, but I didn't expect it to be very hidden.

Zu Zhenlin's heart ignited interest, and he did not step forward to disturb, but quietly observed. The woman's face was charming, and she smiled between her words, but Lin Xi's face was a little ugly and her expression was irritable. I can't help but admire Lin Xi, usually I don't show the mountain or leak, it turns out that he is deeply hidden, the means are so clever that women can bow down to him, I really don't know what I like about him. Do you want to ask him for advice, so that when you meet in the future, you can start to play a role and hold the beauty. Thinking around, I suddenly thought that the other party didn't remember what I was doing, and I was instantly stunned.

In a trance, Zu Zhenlin found that the woman had left, and Lin Xi was alone in the pavilion in a daze. Suppress distractions, stop thinking nonsense, and quietly approach the pavilion. He didn't use his body, nor did he deliberately cover his body and voice, but Lin Xi seemed to be too focused, even if Zu Zhenlin walked to his side, he didn't notice it.

Zu Zhenlin stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder, Lin Xi was taken aback, and there was a trace of panic in his eyes.

"What's the matter, being a thief? Who is that beauty? I haven't heard you mention it. Zu Zhenlin quipped.

When Lin Xi heard the question, his face turned red, and he said hurriedly: "Have you seen it all?"

"Calm down, I'm not so despicable that I won't eavesdrop on you. Just passing by, I saw you chatting with a girl and came over to inquire about the situation. Zu Zhenlin said with a smile.

Lin Xi's expression calmed down, and he said embarrassedly: "We have nothing to do with each other. ”

Zu Zhenlin didn't intend to let him go easily, and continued to tease: "Yes, you don't have three hundred taels of silver here, I saw that girl talking and laughing at you, how could it be okay? I think it has a lot to do with it." When will it be called out, everyone will get together and get to know each other?"

Lin Xi's expression became more and more awkward, and his fingers were intertwined.

Zu Zhenlin saw that the situation was not right, and asked, "What's the matter......?"

Lin Xi's eyes were slightly red, and his fists were clenched.

Zu Zhenlin patted him on the shoulder and comforted: "Okay, the twisted melon is not sweet, since people don't want to, then forget it." Or you can keep trying, but don't get too annoying with them. Maybe in the future, your realm strength will be stronger, and if you achieve achievements, she will change her mind. ”

Lin Xi shook his head, "Forget it, she laughed at me and said that I was a toad who wanted to eat swan meat." You're right, I must work harder to practice and prove myself. ”

Zu Zhenlin solemnly reminded: "You can't be angry in your cultivation, and you can't mess up your state of mind, otherwise you will be the one who suffers, and it will be too late to regret it when the time comes." Don't resent people, it only means that the two of you are not suitable. With your character, you will definitely be able to find a good wife in the future. ”

"Am I ugly?" asked Lin Xi.

Zu Zhenlin looked up and down and thought carefully.

"It won't be really ugly, right?" Lin Xi said hurriedly.

"Haha, I can't think of how to describe you as handsome, don't be afraid. Zu Zhenlin said with a smile.

"I said that I don't look ugly, and I will definitely find a good daughter-in-law in the future. Lin Xi said firmly.

"Okay, have you eaten, do you want to go together?" asked Zu Zhenlin.

"I happened to be hungry. Let's go, go to dinner. When I suddenly want to drink, I just want to drink, not because of anything else. Lin Xi emphasized.

"I'll drink with you. Zu Zhenlin immediately said.

"Thank you. Lin Xi said softly, his eyes were still a little red.
