I drew a talisman to save the sun from its bleeding state.

Chapter 79 I am Lei Xiu, and I agree to Zhou Zheng going up.

Because they had achieved their goals ahead of schedule, Zhou Zheng hurriedly dragged Xiaoxue to play games. They hadn't played games in a long time and were feeling the urge.

As a result, the two went straight to the bedroom, and Zhou Zheng was pushed onto the bed by Xiaoxue and they started kissing. Then she held on tightly and wouldn't let go, insisting on chatting to deepen their relationship.

He was just chatting, but his hands were anything but honest; his eyes were gleaming like a hungry wolf.

Forced into a corner, Zhou Zheng grabbed Xiaoxue's hands, letting her lie face down on his chest: "No, are you trying to kill someone?"

Xiaoxue squirmed in dissatisfaction: "Hmm~ What are you doing? Let go of me."

Zhou Zheng was speechless: "We just got our marriage certificate, what are you trying to do?"

Xiaoxue grinned mischievously: "Hehe, honey~~ do you know you have a big flaw?"

A question mark appeared above Zhou Zheng's head: "My flaw is that I don't let you have your way and cause trouble?"

Xiaoxue drooled: "Although you are handsome, talented and capable, my dear, you are poor. You are so poor that even mice have to scatter some grain before they leave."

Did you know that being so handsome, talented, and capable that you can't afford to live on is actually a fantastic advantage?

Objectively speaking, it's a tragedy for a handsome guy to be poor.

Subjectively speaking, it's a good thing that handsome guys are poor.

Zhou Zheng: "...What nonsense are you spouting?"

Xiaoxue: "Bo'er! Because my family is loaded! And you're so poor you don't have any money in your bank account! Don't you think we're a perfect match?!"

As Zhou Zheng's little darling, Xiaoxue already knew Zhou Zheng's phone password and even his payment password. When she saw the balance, Xiaoxue laughed so hard she almost flew away, and immediately found Zhou Zheng's biggest "flaw".

Zhou Zheng: "?"

My question mark isn't because I think I have a problem, but because you do. Where's the logic in your statement? According to you, banks and low-income families are a perfect match.

Xiaoxue grinned mischievously, like a weasel that had just stolen a chicken: "You're poor, I'm rich, so I can blackmail you into doing things you don't want to do, and you'll have no choice but to accept it with tears in your eyes, because I'm richer than you can imagine!"

Zhou Zheng remained silent: "Speak."

Xiaoxue: "Please, please eat me up!"

Zhou Zheng was getting a little too agitated and put Xiaoxue next to him: "Stop messing around, it's not the right time for us to be fighting."

Xiaoxue lunged forward, her strength attribute, which had increased rapidly through days of cultivation, now playing a crucial role. She laughed even more gleefully: "Since you won't listen, then I'll start threatening you! I'm going to devour you!"

Zhou Zheng: "..."

Who said girls aren't proactive? They met, fell in love, and got married in a flash after only a week, and now they're making a scene. If I don't comply, they start threatening me. They're always clinging to me, wanting kisses and hugs.

He reached out and grasped Xiaoxue's waist.

Xiaoxue let out a soft moan and collapsed.

With a gentle touch, medical skills came into play, immobilizing the person.

Xiaoxue was unable to move and said shyly, "Brother, do you like this position? I will cooperate."

Zhou Zheng pulled away, straightened his clothes, and lay down beside her, resting with his hands on his stomach: "Day after day."

Xiaoxue was shocked: "You, you, you, you! You used a freeze spell and then did absolutely nothing! Are you Sun Wukong?!"

Zhou Zheng ignored it, staring at the ceiling, feeling as if he had finally lost a hundred pounds, feeling incredibly light and refreshed.

"Ten thousand! Ten thousand!"

Zhou Zheng picked at his ear, completely ignoring him. "If I loved money," he thought, "I could sell longevity charms and make millions."

"One hundred thousand! That's a month's allowance!"

"One million! That's all the money in my payment card!"

"Three million, sob sob sob, I really have no money left, this is all I have."

Zhou Zheng untied her from the restraints: "Quietly, lie down quietly and let's chat. Don't do anything messy."

Xiaoxue hugged Zhou Zheng with a pitiful expression: "Hmph!"

You could tell from his voice that he was very dissatisfied.

Zhou Zheng: "Once things are resolved, once my cultivation level improves, once we've met both sets of parents... in short, I need to agree to this."

"Okay, so you want money, baby~ No questions asked~"

Zhou Zheng: "...If your best friend is dating a poor guy, how would you talk to her about it?"

Xiaoxue: "Wow, bestie, you have to be careful, maybe he's after your money!"

Zhou Zheng: "Then why don't you talk to me?"

Xiaoxue: "Hehe, luckily I have plenty of money."

Zhou Zheng looked at her silently. It seems that Little Sun isn't brainless, she just lacks brains and principles in front of me.

Xiaoxue stopped fussing and obediently hugged him, a smile naturally appearing on her lips.

……

We hugged and chatted, and before we knew it, it was 10 p.m.

Zhou Zheng made a video call to Xu Fan: "Gather together, get ready to go to Heshan to fight off the vengeful demons."

Xu Fan: "...Okay, shall I wait for you at the entrance of the old development zone, or should we go to your place?"

Zhou Zheng: "Wait at the entrance of the development zone."

Xu Fan, with tears in his eyes, said, "Okay."

The phone hangs up.

Xiaoxue: "Brother, should we give Xu Fan a break? He's already so busy every day and still has to work with us. Won't he be able to handle it?"

Poor Xu Fan was already working non-stop, and every day he also had to travel long distances to follow along and help out.

Zhou Zheng: "I don't care if he's busy or not, the consequences are there, he has to do it whether he wants to or not."

After resting for a bit, Xiaoxue's talismans were replenished, Tang Ying was reminded that she was going out, and everyone checked their condition and equipment.

After confirming everything was correct, we set off by car, picking up the unfortunate Xu Fan and heading straight for Heshan.

In the car, Xu Fan asked a profound question: "Brother Zhou, why did you come back yesterday instead of resting there?"

Zhou Zheng: "Xiaoxue is particular about her bed."

Xu Fan: "...It's alright now."

Upon arriving at Heshan Hospital, they found Ding Lang, as well as Zhang Xuanqing, a Taoist priest, and others who were stationed there.

Everyone went straight to the rooftop.

Zhang Xuanqing pointed to the enormous array overhead, invisible to ordinary people: "We have already set up a barrier to trap the vengeful demonic energy within. We are also sending people to collect, organize, and investigate the underground data, and the major sects have begun to monitor their jurisdictions for any traces of the Nine Streams Sect. We believe we will receive feedback soon."

Zhou Zheng nodded: "Okay, thank you all for your hard work. I'm going to practice now."

A false crisis management strategy: I will single-handedly turn the tide.

The real way to handle a crisis: report it at lightning speed and get the organization to handle it.

Master Shi Ren asked curiously, turning the prayer beads in his hand: "Master Zhou, are you going to fight the resentful demon aura alone? Although you are both at the Qi Refining stage, the resentful demon aura is formed by the mixture of resentment and evil energy. Ordinary spells will probably lose their power in a few moves and be difficult to control."

Zhou Zheng smiled and said, "I am Lei Xiu."

Master Shi Ren looked on with anticipation, waiting for the next installment.

Zhou Zheng: "...I am Lei Xiu."

Master Shi Ren was silent for a moment, then turned his prayer beads: "Amitabha, I failed to explain clearly. Daoist Zhou, for a demonic aura of this scale, even if we were to use a Qi Refining Realm disciple to fight it, we would only recommend forming an array to attack, rather than fighting alone."

In plain language: Don't even mention that you're a thunder cultivator; even if you were the Thunder God, it wouldn't work.

Zhou Zheng: "Um, Master, I have a lightning-type Heavenly Spiritual Root."

A Heavenly Spiritual Root refers to a spiritual root that is fully developed. A Thunder-type Heavenly Spiritual Root is a fully developed Thunder-type spiritual root.

Master Shi Ren smiled and said, "I see, very well indeed... Why don't you fellow practitioners also offer some advice?"
