Chapter 95

To be honest, she had never seen someone with such terrifying talent.

His comprehension ability is too strong.

Any question, as soon as she explained it, he immediately understood—even going further to extrapolate and delve deeper!

Based on his current displayed proficiency, he is absolutely comparable to a Rank One alchemist!

His talent in sword cultivation is equally terrifying.

Who would have thought he is just as extraordinary in alchemy!

He is truly a prodigy!

"Meng, why don't you come to Medicinal King Peak?"

Kong Linxue gripped Meng Zhangqing's hand and sincerely invited him.

"Senior Sister, you overstate it—I'm just learning casually, no intention of mastering it."

Meng Zhangqing's face remained calm, his heart unmoved.

"Learning casually..."

Kong Linxue was speechless.

She had spent nearly a decade of grueling effort to reach her current Rank Two.

But Master Meng, just learning casually, has already reached Rank One.

Yet she did not know that Meng Zhangqing had long been Rank Two—he was merely revealing it gradually to avoid too drastic a leap.

Once he obtains a special flame.

He can reveal himself without restraint.

After all, without alchemical fire, one cannot ascend to Rank Two.

Then Kong Linxue seemed to realize she was still holding Meng Zhangqing's hand—her cheeks instantly flushed red, and she quickly let go.

That moment was born from genuine emotion.

That was why she made such a move.

It was not intentional.

"Um... Master Meng's hand is quite large, and quite warm..."

Kong Linxue cleared her throat.

She wanted to explain, but the words she spoke sounded even stranger.

The scene fell into an eerie silence.

"Um, I have something to attend to—I'll go first. Goodbye, Master Meng."

Kong Linxue's heart grew increasingly flustered as she thought about it.

She quickly rose and left.

Until now, she had never had such an intimate gesture with a man.

And it was she who had taken his hand!

The scent of perfume faded; the courtyard gate closed.

Only Meng Zhangqing remained alone.

He pinched the bridge of his nose.

Even if he were a fool, he could now discern something from Kong Linxue's expression and reaction.

But his martial cultivation has only just begun.

"Let fate take its course."

Meng Zhangqing lowered his hand, his gaze falling on the jade box on the table.

Golden Scale Purple Blood Elixir.

With this elixir, reaching the peak of the Aperture Opening Realm in a short time is no problem!

And this, aside from his attributes, is an extra gift from his friend!

Just like Bai Suxi had done before.

Speaking of Bai Suxi.

I wonder how that girl has been lately.

Since she entered the Runei Sect, she will surely participate in this secret realm.

Thinking this, Meng Zhangqing directly opened his friend list.

【Friend: Bai Suxi】

【Race: Human】

【Cultivation base: Aperture Opening Realm, 4th stage】

【...】

【Martial Art: "Mystic Sea Return to Origin Technique" (Layer Two)...】

"Another breakthrough?"

Meng Zhangqing's eyebrows lifted slightly.

No wonder she is one blessed with great fortune.

Just over ten days ago, when I was still in my family, she was only at the 2nd stage of the Aperture Realm.

Now she is already at the 4th stage.

Her progress is truly rapid.

Also, her technique has improved—yet I don't know what it is; it's certainly not from the Xuan Sect.

At least, I never saw it in the Scripture Repository.

"I need to hurry and cultivate."

Meng Zhangqing picked up the jade box and walked into the room.

Otherwise, this little girl will catch up to me.
