The Comeback of the Cannon-Fodder Supporting Actress

Chapter 1246 - 1219: Behind the Mary Sue 18

Anning was called to the study by Family Head Zhu once again.

An Yue went along with her.

Family Head Zhu said to the two of them: "After Ningning’s promotion, she hasn’t had any training yet. Yue’er has been stuck at the eighth floor of the Qi Refinement Realm for two years without breakthrough. I’ve been thinking over and over, and decided to let the two of you go out and train together. Ningning needs refinement, and Yue’er should take a walk in the mortal world; you might achieve a breakthrough."

"Okay."

Anning agreed with a smile.

An Yue was somewhat unwilling to go out.

She felt that painstaking cultivation was too boring. She thought that once Xiao Qing became an expert, she would definitely follow him, and then Xiao Qing would help her find some Spirit Pills and Spiritual Medicine to assist her in promotion, so why put in so much effort now.

Besides, An Yue was also reluctant to go to the mortal world.

Going to the mortal world was too tiring; how could it be more comfortable than in the Cultivation World?

But since Family Head Zhu had said she should train, she didn’t dare disobey.

"Father, when are we departing?"

An Yue asked Family Head Zhu.

Family Head Zhu thought for a while: "In five days. Prepare yourselves in these five days, then head to the Immortal Channel as it opens. Remember, this time is mainly for refining your state of mind. Especially you, Ningning, since your cultivation has improved, your mindset must catch up. Therefore, in the mortal world, you must not use spells and must live like mortals, understand?"

"Okay."

Anning replied with a smiling nod.

An Yue agreed unwillingly.

Anning left Family Head Zhu’s side and went to find Aunt Feng.

Aunt Feng probably already knew she was going to train in the mortal world, as she was packing things for her.

"This needs to be taken."

Aunt Feng packed quite a bit of gold: "In the mortal world, this is very valuable; bring more of it, and also take some Spiritual Medicine, Spirit Talismans must be brought too..."

Anning laughed and sat beside Aunt Feng: "Auntie, don’t pack those; Father said not to use them."

"Your father said not to use spells, but he didn’t say not to bring things."

Aunt Feng glared at Anning: "Don’t be too honest, you must bring what needs to be brought. Whether you use them or not, if there’s danger, these things are life-saving."

"Alright then."

Having no choice, Anning spread her hands: "Mother, pack more for me."

Aunt Feng laughed, and energetically ordered the maid to find some clothes for Anning to take along.

Seeing Aunt Feng busy packing, Anning left the house.

Having nowhere else to go, she visited the small house where Xiao Qing and Xiao Yuan lived.

Using a Secret Technique known only to Xiao Yuan and herself, she left a message for Xiao Yuan, telling him she was going to train in the mortal world.

Afterwards, Anning enjoyed food and drink at the Zhu Family for a few days. On the fifth day, Family Head Zhu personally sent her and An Yue to the Immortal Channel via a flying car.

The Immortal Channel is located a few thousand miles north of Sifang City, fairly close to it.

Dongling Continent is vast, so a few thousand miles is indeed quite near for cultivators here. Cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage can reach it in less than half a day at full power.

The Zhu Family’s flying car landed at the Immortal Channel, where many people had already gathered.

Scions of noble families, disciples of Great Sects, and some Loose Cultivators often choose to train in the mortal world to refine their mindset. The Immortal Channel opens every five years, attracting many people to gather and wait to go to the mortal world.

Anning and An Yue disembarked the flying car, and many eyes turned towards Anning.

Anning’s beauty was so striking, it captivated many cultivators.

Especially some young cultivators who weren’t very skilled; they stared at Anning for a long time, dazed.

An Yue concealed her jealousy, pulling Anning forward.

"Who is this young lady?"

Anning had only taken a few steps when several male cultivators surrounded her and spoke.

Anning simply smiled without speaking.

But this smile was so enchanting, even older cultivators couldn’t steady their minds, and some female cultivators were mesmerized.

"Have you been to the mortal world, young lady?"

A few young male cultivators refused to give up, insisting on chatting with Anning.

"We haven’t been."

An Yue replied.

One of the male cultivators frowned: "That’s not good; the mortal world is different from here. Our Dongling Continent respects strength, but the mortal world... young lady, if you haven’t been, you might be disadvantaged when you go. How about teaming up with us later to go together?"

The other male cultivators nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, we should team up; we can help each other if anything happens."

Anning waved them off with a smile: "No need."

"No need to be polite, young lady."

The male cultivator warmly invited Anning.

Anning shook her head: "No, really. I heard that when the Immortal Channel opens, it’s uncertain where you will land. If we end up not in the same place, there’s no point in teaming up."

Uh?

The few people fell silent instantly.

Actually, they hadn’t been to the mortal world either; they just wanted to impress Anning because she was beautiful.

Just then, the Immortal Channel opened.

The cultivators lined up to enter.

When it opened, Anning sensed the Power of Laws within the Immortal Channel.

This Immortal Channel is actually a large transmission matrix. Anning suspected it would transport cultivators to small spaces. While they are called small spaces, they’re like illusions, and during transport, it suppresses the cultivators’ abilities, making them live like ordinary people, thus training their mindset.

It wasn’t long before it was Anning and An Yue’s turn.

The two entered the Immortal Channel one after the other.

As Anning entered, she carefully felt the Power of Laws within the channel.

Then she realized her guesses were correct.

Anning went through the channel, hit by a strong light, she quickly closed her eyes, then felt dizzy. When she opened her eyes again, she was in a mountainous area.

This mountain scenery was beautiful, resembling springtime. A few peach trees were in full bloom, accompanied by a clear stream with visible swimming fish.

Anning examined the surroundings, not rushing to leave the mountainside.

She found a large stone to sit on, planning to wait for An Yue.

She waited a long time but didn’t see An Yue, so Anning stood up and prepared to leave.

She thought An Yue must be somewhere else, perhaps transported to a different location.

Anning slowly descended the mountain and found a small village at the foot.

The village was quite small, with thatched cottages visible here and there. Counting, there were only a few dozen homes, along with fields and farmers working in them. Children played and ran on the paths.

Seeing this, Anning couldn’t help but smile.

She walked further and saw a few children, around ten years old, carrying firewood approaching.

The children saw Anning and jumped in surprise.

The older one put down the firewood and bowed to Anning: "Fairy, are you a fairy?"
