Chapter 44: Master, Have You Heard About Couple Cultivation? (1)
Translator: Sissy That Walk
Luo Jianqing never thought that he would see this book again, and it was the second volume of it.
The first volume of Seeking Immortality was destroyed by himself intentionally after he made sure that he memorized every word of it. The world would be driven into chaos if someone else read that book. He couldn’t afford to take any risk to preserve it.
Luo Jianqing was sure that he didn’t see any serial number on the cover of that book, but the first volume did end with Li Xiuchen got out of the Liu Yan Valley and replaced Luo Jianqing’s status among all the disciples in Tai Hua Mountain.
After Luo Jianqing’s reincarnation, however, everything was different.
Li Xiuchen didn’t have a single chance to show off. In the book – or their last life – Li Xiuchen was the second disciple of Yu Xiao Peak, but now he was just one of the mediocrities on the Hao Ming Peak. Frowned, Luo Jianqing opened Seeking Immortality and kept on reading.
He finished it within fifteen minutes.
Cultivators had brilliant memorization ability which was far more powerful than the mortals, not to mention that Luo Jianqing himself was the best one among all the Nascent Soul cultivators. He destroyed the book after he finished it. The book was the sequel of the first volume of Seeking Immortality, which wrote about how Li Xiuchen surprised Xuan Lingzi with more than a hundred Yan Fruits that he got from the Liu Yan Valley.
More than a hundred Yan Fruits!
Even Xuan Lingzi couldn’t find this much of Yan Fruit in Liu Yan Valley.
It was true that Xuan Lingzi could deal with all the challenges in the Liu Yan Valley like a piece of cake, but since Yan Fruit couldn’t resonate with Spiritual Power, cultivators can’t use their Spiritual Sense to search it. It was just a normal fruit like anyone else before it was consumed by cultivators. This was strong evidence on how lucky Li Xiuchen was. In the last life, Li Xiuchen became a well-known name on Tai Hua Mountain after he came back from Liu Yan Valley with a gigantic amount of Yan Fruit.
Luo Jianqing remembered this, but he found something interesting in Seeking Immortality . For instance, the book emphasized that Luo Jianqing got out of the Liu Yan Valley on the last day and immediately showed others all the twentyish Yan Fruits he had found.
Others were impressed. Some of them even kept saying that “cultivator Luo must be the top 1 among all the people who went to the Liu Yan Valley this time”.
However, right before the gate was about to close, Li Xiuchen came out with more than a hundred Yan Fruit which drew everyone’s attention.
The book wrote:
“Seeing this, that handsome Great Senior Disciple immediately got mad and felt embarra.s.sed. He left in anger but no one ever noticed his disappearance. The compliments for him were still echoing, but sadly they all turned into a slap on his face.”
Speechless, Luo Jianqing touched his face.
It was true that he was irritated when it happened, but he was no petty person. He admitted that he did leave with fury, not for Yan Fruits, but for something Li Xiuchen said:
“Thank G.o.d that my Master gave me some defensive instruments, otherwise I definitely can’t make it.”
Why on earth did Xuan Lingzi give Li Xiuchen instruments but only told Luo Jianqing “do not dishonor our Yu Xiao Peak” instead?!
Thought about these, Luo Jianqing became fidget, then he recalled Xuan Lingzi’s face when his Master was forced to face their abnormal relationship. Luo Jianqing found it quite funny in an agonized way. He didn’t understand why Xuan Lingzi treated him like that in their last life. At least he didn’t send half of his Primordial Life to escort Luo Jianqing to the Liu Yan Valley in the last life.
Perhaps it was something he had done in this life making Xuan Lingzi fell in love with him?
n.o.body was there to answer his question.
Refused to see him, his Master was hiding in his house like a turtle and went into seclusion. Luo Jianqing failed figuring out a way to get him out of the room. He tried kneeling before the door for forty days. The result wasn’t that well.
Luo Jianqing looked at the ashes lying on the ground – the remnants of Seeking Immortality – and chuckled. He yelled at the air, “Master, one year later, the septennial compet.i.tion between different sects on Tai Hua Mountain will begin. This time, will you come out and remind me ‘do not dishonor our Yu Xiao Peak’?”
Luo Jianqing used his Spiritual Power when speaking these words. Wu Yin could definitely hear this as long as he didn’t conceal all of his senses.
However, what responded Luo Jianqing was a long silence.
Didn’t get wrath at all, Luo Jianqing shouted again. “Master, how would you punish me if I lose in the compet.i.tion?”
Still, n.o.body answered him.
Luo Jianqing said calmly, “well, if you don’t reply, then I guess I shall lose.”
‘Swish——’
A golden-sword light suddenly pa.s.sed through the flaw on the door and cut a wisp of his hair as if it was a warning. However, Luo Jianqing widened his eyes which were rippling with surprise, opened his mouth and was about to say something, but felt an overwhelming Coercion pressing on his shoulders which constrained him on his bed.
The Coercion from a Deity Transformation Period cultivator made Luo Jianqing panting badly. Sweat was dripping from his forehead. He tried to get up but was defeated by the Coercion upon his body which acted as a stone weighing about thousands of kilograms. He tried to speak but couldn’t let out a single syllable.
Luo Jianqing refused to surrender, so the Coercion kept forcing on.
After a whole day, the Coercion suddenly dismissed just as quick as its appearance.
Finally relaxed his tense body, Luo Jianqing was lying on the bed, couldn’t move a finger. He was fighting the Coercion all the time, but the enormous gap between their powers made him unable to revolt.
Nonetheless……
“This is the first time I disobey you in the past forty-one years……am I right, Wu Yin?”
Like a stone falling into the magnificent ocean – Luo Jianqing’s words got no response.
Luo Jianqing lay on the bed and chuckled. He covered his eyes with palms but couldn’t conceal the laugh.
His Master liked him. His Master really liked him. His Master really really liked him……
