Chapter 947

Universal Star, Bai family.

Bai Xingwei ended her seven-day seclusion because her cultivation had improved again, and since she had been in seclusion enough during this period, she wouldn't be cultivating again for a short time.

There are so many things happening on Universal Star every day that even one day without contact with this ever-changing society creates a sense of unfamiliarity.

To ensure she hadn't missed too much important information, Bai Xingwei opened her personal mailbox after coming out of seclusion.

Most of them were from her mom and dad, asking how she had been lately, if she had found a boy she liked, saying they were busy with work and couldn't come home, and telling her to take care of herself.

She had heard words like these so many times over a dozen years ago that she had grown calluses on her ears.

At first, she would feel lonely and sad, thinking her parents didn't care about her at all, envying those classmates at school whose parents could attend every parent-teacher meeting, and envying those naughty children who were called in by teachers because they made mistakes.

At least, they still had parents to call.

And she had excellent grades at school; teachers and school leaders never stopped praising her, but when she got home, there wasn't even anyone to share the good news with.

Because her mom and dad were rarely home all year round, and most of the time, the messages she sent to contact them were like stones sinking into the sea.

As time went on, Bai Xingwei finally changed from her initial resentment to her current indifference.

Note, it's indifference, not understanding.

In her view, no matter how busy parents are with work, it's not a reason to ignore their children's growth. She couldn't understand her parents, but whether she understood them or not was no longer important; she didn't need this care anymore.

And she didn't know if her parents had finally finished their work in the last two years or if they had realized their emotional absence toward her, but the frequency of communication had been increasing day by day.

However, this communication truly came too late; she had already passed the age of a little girl who wanted to confide everything to her parents.

Now, she had enough strength and means to solve most of the problems she faced.

So, Bai Xingwei threw all these emails from her parents into the trash after a cursory glance, just to save space.

Soon, Bai Xingwei saw a truly important email.

It was sent by the school she was attending, saying that the Master Xianwu Daoist had come out of seclusion, and because he had gained some insights, he was going to give a major lecture for seven days.

The lecture time was next Tuesday, which was the day after tomorrow.

The Master Xianwu Daoist was one of the best lecturers in the school; he created the Master Xianwu Scripture, which almost exhausted the true meaning of the Dao. Any cultivator who listened to him speak for a while could benefit greatly.

Seeing this news, Bai Xingwei immediately became excited because this was a grand event that absolutely could not be missed!

She remembered that the last time she listened to the Master Xianwu Daoist's lecture was six years ago. At that time, her cultivation was stuck at the peak of the Blood Quenching Realm and hadn't made any progress for a long time.

As the first major hurdle for a cultivator, getting rid of the mortal body sounds easy, but it's actually troublesome to truly achieve.

If she cultivated step by step, even if her talent was far superior to ordinary people, she would have to waste at least two years to successfully enter the Mortal Transformation Realm.

But it was also at that time that she happened to encounter the Master Xianwu Daoist's lecture, which was also a seven-day major lecture.

And she only listened until the fourth day when she had a flash of inspiration and successfully broke through to the Mortal Transformation Realm, saving at least two years of hard work.

If he gives another lecture this time, it might allow her to step directly into the Divine Refining Realm in one go and become a true master.

But besides herself, Bai Xingwei immediately thought of someone who couldn't miss this lecture, and that was Luo Quan.

Luo Quan is probably in a period of confusion in her cultivation right now.

After all, she comes from a barren world without any high-level cultivation system. If she only relies on herself, she will take quite a few detours.

But if she can listen to a master's lecture, the benefits she can get are almost infinite, so Luo Quan might need this opportunity for enlightenment even more than she does.

Of course, she didn't need to give up her qualifications or anything; this lecture was open to all students in the school, and she had already signed Luo Quan up, so she could go listen directly.

So Bai Xingwei activated the Spirit Mirror, wanting to cross the sea of stars to notify her of this news.

"I wonder what Luo Quan is doing now," Bai Xingwei muttered.

There is a time difference between Universal Star and the planet where Luo Quan is located; maybe she is sleeping at this time.

Just as this thought ended, an image appeared in the Spirit Mirror.

However, the lens seemed to be filled with misty water vapor, and nothing could be seen clearly; only the sound of splashing water could be heard.

Then the mirror refreshed automatically, and everything that appeared in the mirror made Bai Xingwei almost faint.

In fact, from the moment she heard the sound of water, she had already realized something was wrong.

"You... what are you doing, Luo Quan?" Bai Xingwei endured her trembling hands and asked a question she already knew the answer to.

"Taking a bath," Luo Quan said, tilting her head and rinsing the shower gel off her face.

She thought the Spirit Mirror only had a calling function, so after feeling the vibration, she took it out and placed it on the shelf.

Little did she know that this directly resulted in a live broadcast.

After rinsing her face and looking down, she discovered that what appeared in the mirror wasn't herself, but Bai Xingwei's face, which was about to laugh itself into a cramp. Luo Quan instantly froze.

According to Luo's theory of relativity, if she could see Bai Xingwei on the other side of the mirror, then Bai Xingwei must also be seeing her.

That is to say...

"Damn, there's no one else on your side, right?"

Luo Quan hurriedly turned the mirror around and then accelerated the speed of rinsing.

"There is, I was just live-streaming," Bai Xingwei said, pretending to be serious.

"Hehe, you don't have a talent for lying at all," Luo Quan didn't buy it at all. "You didn't tell me earlier that this could also be a video call, making me look like a fool."

"I remember telling you; it must be that you didn't take it seriously and forgot."

Bai Xingwei gently stroked her chin, recalling the dazzling white skin she had just seen: "And it's not ugly; it's quite beautiful."

"Nonsense, do you understand the gold content of a level-nine beauty?" Luo Quan's embarrassment didn't last long, and she soon became proud again.

They are both girls, so it doesn't matter if she sees a few glances; she even takes baths with Wen Xia and the others.

And Bai Xingwei had similar thoughts and didn't tease her too much.

"Speaking of which, you made a video call; it couldn't be just to watch me bathe, right? Is there anything important?" Luo Quan had already finished washing at this time and asked while wrapping a bath towel around herself.

Bai Xingwei asked back: "Can't I look for you if there's nothing wrong? As friends, can't we chat and relieve boredom?"

"According to my observations, you are not such a sentimental person."

Luo Quan picked up the mirror, the mirror facing herself: "But it doesn't matter, I happen to be free tonight, I can accompany you no matter what you want to talk about."

Hearing this, Bai Xingwei felt a warmth in her heart, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up: "Forget it, I don't have that much free time to chat with you. There is indeed serious business for looking for you this time.

Universal Public University, which is the school I signed you up for, will have a very important lecture the day after tomorrow, and the person holding this lecture is one of the best teachers in the school.

When he gave a lecture last time, he helped me solve quite a few doubts on the path of cultivation, and I think you must also need to learn more knowledge.

So if you have time, come back to Universal Star. Listening to such a lecture can benefit you for a lifetime."

Hearing Bai Xingwei say so much, Luo Quan didn't have the slightest intention to question it.

After all, she had already used herself as an example, which proved that this lecture was indeed very important. It just so happened that her current cultivation had entered a new stage, and she needed a master to preach, teach, and resolve doubts.

"Okay, I'll come over as soon as I finish the work at hand, at most no more than forty-eight hours." Luo Quan didn't say any witty remarks to Bai Xingwei this time, but seriously agreed on the time.

She is currently at the recording site for the sixth episode of the fifth season of "A Longing Life."

The show is recorded for three days in total, and she has already recorded one day. She took a bath with a body that wasn't too tired, and then received this good news from Bai Xingwei.

After recording the day after tomorrow, she can take a plane home in the evening, say hello to Wen Xia and the others, tell them she wants to go into seclusion in her room for a few days, and then she can go directly back to Universal Star through the Anywhere Door to listen to the lecture.

The time arrangement is perfect, but she doesn't know if forty-eight hours is enough for Bai Xingwei to arrange the remaining itinerary.

"Okay, then I'll wait for you at home, and then we'll go to school together," Bai Xingwei answered very crisply. "That's it then, I'll hang up first, I still have some emails to process."

"Ok ok," Luo Quan said subconsciously.

The Spirit Mirror image disappeared, and Bai Xingwei was stunned for a moment: "What is ok?"

This question can only be asked in person after Luo Quan returns.

And on Luo Quan's side, the important news Bai Xingwei told her didn't disrupt the arrangements she had already made.

After all, the movie has already been released, and the variety show won't be filmed for many more days.

As for the Art Olympics competition, the preliminary round doesn't require her to be there in person; she just needs to send the entries, and her works are all ready-made, so there's no need to re-record them.

The only thing she feels sorry about is that she won't be able to live-stream for her fans for a few more days.

Fortunately, this time it probably won't take as long as the first time she went to Universal Star.

How long can just one lecture take?

Luo Quan thought this, then lay down on the bed and started to cultivate.

Since obtaining the Samadhi True Fire, her cultivation has been cultivation in the true sense.

As long as she runs the Great Expansion Immortal Art, a group of bright red flames will rise around her dantian, burning her essence, Qi, and spirit.

Every time she finishes cultivation, she can truly feel that she has become stronger.

In terms of attributes, her physique, strength, and spirit have all increased by a few points.

Although it's not much, it will be very considerable over time. This point makes Luo Quan quite excited; nothing is more gratifying than watching herself become stronger every day.

Besides that, Luo Quan also discovered that she could completely replace sleep with cultivation.

After the Samadhi True Fire finishes burning and she wakes up, her spirit is very full.

Every day she is becoming stronger, and every day, of course, she is full of energy.

In the future, she can work wholeheartedly during the day and cultivate while sleeping at night; it's simply a perfect cycle.

The only unreasonable part is that she always lies down to cultivate, unlike those serious immortal masters in novels who sit with their five hearts facing the sky; it doesn't seem very serious.

Actually, she could also sit with her five hearts facing the sky, which are the palms of her hands, the soles of her feet, and the top of her head, but that is too tiring, and her bones aren't comfortable after waking up; it's far less comfortable than lying down.

Therefore, Luo Quan chose to lie flat without hesitation.

After all, for modern young people, the most important posture is to learn how to lie flat.

It's just that when others lie flat, they just leave it at that, whatever happens, happens.

And she lies flat completely because this posture is more comfortable, but it doesn't hinder her work; there is an essential difference between the two.

The only drawback is that using cultivation to replace sleep means she can't dream anymore.

If she has the opportunity to learn the technique of lucid dreaming in the future, she must combine it with cultivation, and then she can have beautiful dreams every night...

At six o'clock the next day, after Luo Quan woke up, she didn't even stretch and left the bed happily, trying to make a clean break with the contemporary youth who linger in bed.

After washing up, she went downstairs and started preparing today's breakfast.

The fifth season of "A Longing Life" is in a rural village.

The last season was scolded by netizens because the homestay was by the sea.

Because living by the sea is exactly like a vacation, and everyone came to watch this variety show to see celebrities suffer.

They wanted to see a more grounded side of the celebrities, not one after another like a three-day tour to the Maldives, carrying a lounge chair all day, sunbathing on the beach, blowing the sea breeze, and chatting about philosophy, poetry, and the distance that everyone can understand.

The last season failed to clarify the positioning of the show, turning "A Longing Life" into the life in dreams.

For celebrities, a seaside vacation is of course the life in longing, and it can be realized easily.

But for ordinary people, let alone going to the seaside for a vacation, even being able to take a few days off to rest at home is already very happy.

Go to the seaside? Where would they have such good conditions?

Therefore, the fourth season, which was detached from the masses, became the lowest-rated season, and more than one old fan said that the show had lost its flavor.

And in the new season, in order to restore its reputation, "A Longing Life" returned to the rural countryside.

It's still a few acres of good farmland, a dozen chickens and ducks, letting the guests cook for themselves.

The first few batches of guests could only plant vegetables and engage in farming, while those like Luo Quan who came later were very comfortable and could directly enjoy the fruits of others' efforts.

Yesterday, as soon as she arrived, the resident guests unanimously decided to kill two chickens to welcome her.

But the problem came; several of the resident guests were the type who didn't lift a finger.

Let alone killing a chicken, they might not even be able to crack an egg.

And Luo Quan also took this opportunity to perform well, volunteering to prepare dinner.

Then, the guests tasted what might have been the most delicious full-chicken feast of their lives.

Except for not making soup with the chicken, every cooking method from stir-frying to boiling and deep-frying was used, and the guests praised it endlessly.

The opportunity to taste the cooking of the female chef god is rare, so everyone unanimously decided that Luo Quan would also solve the breakfast the next morning.
