Chapter 254: Good heavens!! Lu Yuan really is creating sin!!

Ji Lingxiao was speechless.

This Sun Hanhua is not a member of the Linglan Sword Sect.

Instead, she is the inner disciple of the Medicine King Sect's Sect Leader.

She is the most talented pill refiner in South Azure Spirit Prefecture.

Sun Hanhua's presence at the Linglan Sword Sect is entirely due to her being an exchange student.

Although cultivators often say they will seclude themselves in a stone hut for ten years, twenty years, or even a hundred or a thousand years to break through.

But this does not mean cultivators never go out and only sit in meditation.

In fact, cultivators often go out to train in the mortal world, or simply change their environment for cultivation.

After all, staying in the same place for too long easily leads to a bottleneck.

Once a bottleneck appears, no matter how talented you are or how fast your cultivation speed, your realm will not advance even a bit.

Therefore, when cultivators encounter a bottleneck, or feel that their cultivation speed has slowed greatly,

they will go elsewhere, such as the mortal world or other places, to train and gain insight into a completely new environment.

Different places offer different insights, and in this way, the bottleneck becomes easier to break through.

This Sun Hanhua is the inner disciple of the Medicine King Sect's Sect Leader.

The Medicine King Sect is a super sect of the same rank as the Linglan Sword Sect, and the two sects have an excellent relationship.

Therefore, Sun Hanhua came to the Linglan Sword Sect to cultivate five years ago.

Because Sun Hanhua holds a high status and is being groomed by the Medicine King Sect as its next Sect Leader, she has been following Ji Lingxiao during these five years.

Sun Hanhua is obedient and well-behaved, inexperienced in worldly affairs.

She is very pure-hearted.

Although she appears as a mature woman and her bone age is seven hundred eighty years, in reality Sun Hanhua is as pure as an ordinary sixteen- or seventeen-year-old girl.

This is actually not hard to understand.

Although cultivators live long lives, that does not necessarily mean they are mature.

Especially those geniuses with bone ages of seven or eight hundred years are even more so.

Like Sun Hanhua, she comes from a noble background, being a member of the Sun clan, one of the seven great clans of South Azure Spirit Prefecture.

From a young age she displayed a stunningly extraordinary talent for pill refining.

Since she could remember, she began cultivating; at seven years old, the Sect Leader of the Medicine King Sect brought her back to the sect, making her an inner disciple to be groomed as the next Sect Leader.

Over these seven or eight hundred years, she has devoted herself wholeheartedly to cultivating her realm and pill refining technique.

In such an environment, even with a bone age of seven or eight hundred years, her mind remains extremely pure.

Such a person, however, has suddenly begun to consider marriage……

Ji Lingxiao truly does not know what to say.

Even more…… Ji Lingxiao is thinking that if this continues……

How on earth am I supposed to explain this to the Medicine King Sect's Sect Leader!!

Sun Hanhua's ten-year stay at the Linglan Sword Sect this time has already passed five years, with five years remaining.

Surely we can't have it so that when Sun Hanhua returns to the Medicine King Sect in five years, she brings back a son and a daughter, can we?

Just thinking about this matter makes Ji Lingxiao's head ache.

The worst part is……

Regarding this matter, Ji Lingxiao actually doesn't know for a moment whether she should stop it.

Sun Hanhua came to the Linglan Sword Sect this time because she encountered a bottleneck, whether in her cultivation realm or her pill refining technique.

Although during these past five years I have treated this Sun Hanhua as my own disciple,

I will immediately help her resolve any doubts she has.

If she needs any materials, I will also help her find them.

Moreover, I have even taken Sun Hanhua out for training several times.

But the effect was minimal.

Simply put, it had no effect at all.

Sun Hanhua is still stuck at the bottleneck.

But since I brought my precious disciple back, this strange thing has happened.

My precious disciple has just returned for a month, and the two of us haven't spoken a word.

My precious disciple is not someone who likes to talk, and it might also be because she just changed places, feeling a bit shy and fearful.

Although Sun Hanhua says she wants to get close to Su Liyan, she also doesn't know what to say.

During the first month, the two of them got along peacefully.

In the second month, for some unknown reason they got to know each other, and then their relationship began to improve more and more.

Upon careful thought, this is actually quite normal.

After all, on my main peak there are only these two disciples.

These two will eventually get to know each other and become friends.

But since the two of them became acquainted, Ji Lingxiao has noticed that something seems a bit off.

Sun Hanhua's bottleneck began at the Medicine King Sect, and adding the five years at the Linglan Sword Sect, it has already been a full twenty years.

This twenty-year bottleneck has tightly locked Sun Hanhua in place.

Over these twenty years, Sun Hanhua's cultivation realm and pill refining technique have truly not improved at all.

But starting this month……

Ji Lingxiao made a horrifying discovery……

Sun Hanhua's bottleneck actually shows signs of gradually loosening!

During this period, Ji Lingxiao was also secretly observing, wondering what exactly was going on.

As a result……

Then I discovered this.

Ji Lingxiao finds himself unable to stop it, yet not stopping it is also not an option.

You stopped it, right……

Sun Hanhua's bottleneck has gotten stuck again.

Then Sun Hanhua coming to the Linglan Sword Sect has lost its meaning.

But if you say not to stop it……

Just let it develop like this……

Ji Lingxiao has good reason to believe that, four months later, when Su Liyan returns to the Zhou Imperial Dynasty, Sun Hanhua will also have to go along.

Going along like that isn't a problem……

Ji Lingxiao just fears…… that Sun Hanhua will come back with a big belly!!

By then……

When Sun Hanhua returns to the Medicine King Sect, he'll be leading a child……

You say…… what should we do about this?

How are we going to explain this to the Medicine King Sect!!

Of course, besides Sun Hanhua, regarding this precious disciple of mine, Ji Lingxiao is also worried to death.

How is this precious disciple of mine……

Good!

Very good!

It's simply good to the point it can't get any better!!

His talent is absolutely the most terrifying and exaggerated that Ji Lingxiao has ever seen.

In two months, my precious disciple directly cultivated the Azure Lotus to the later stage.

Just one step away from reaching Great Completion.

This is only two months; at most another three months, and my precious disciple can cultivate the Azure Lotus to Great Completion.

Even if a genius like me, when I cultivated the Azure Lotus back then, it took a full seventeen years to reach Great Completion.

Now my precious disciple only needs five months.

All of this is due to the Heavenly Demon Nine Li bloodline, plus that cluster of unknown blue light.

Besides his extremely quick grasp of the heart method, the rise in his cultivation realm is also called fast.

Now that he has the Azure Lotus, it's simply fast enough to make one's hair stand on end.

My precious disciple is already at the late Nascent Soul stage.

You should know that in the cultivation realm, each time a major realm rises, the difficulty of further advancement increases by several or even tenfold.

Just like Golden Core and Nascent Soul.

It seems Nascent Soul is just one realm above Golden Core.

But actually, the amount of spiritual power needed to go from early Golden Core to Great Completion Golden Core, when placed in the Nascent Soul realm, would only be enough to go from early Nascent Soul to mid Nascent Soul.

But ever since my precious disciple gained the support of the Heart Method Azure Lotus, his realm progression is practically like cheating.

In two months, he went directly from early Nascent Soul to late Nascent Soul.

Moreover, recently there are faint signs of a breakthrough to Great Completion.

You should know that my precious disciple's Heavenly Demon Nine Li bloodline hasn't fully awakened yet.

If we wait for the bloodline to fully awaken later……

Ji Lingxiao dare not even imagine how exaggerated my precious disciple is.

Ji Lingxiao is extremely satisfied and fond of this disciple of mine.

He wishes he could hug his disciple to sleep every day.

He wishes he could lead his disciple to the various major sects every day to show them, 'This is the next Sect Leader of our Linglan Sword Sect.'

But this disciple of mine has one point that makes Ji Lingxiao truly helpless.

Because……

Ji Lingxiao discovered…… that this disciple of mine hasn't wholeheartedly devoted his mind to cultivation.

Indeed, Su Liyan has extraordinary talent, talent so high it makes one's hair stand on end!

But Su Liyan merely completes the goals I set for her; as soon as she finishes a goal, she absolutely will not do anything related to cultivation.

Instead, she goes to learn how to cook……

The Linglan Sword Sect doesn't have a stove, so she herself goes to nearby towns to buy bricks and an iron pot.

Then she builds a stove on this main peak herself, and every day studies recipes and cooking.

Even an idiot knows that Su Liyan studying these recipes is for what purpose.

It's just to wait until she returns and cook a meal for her man to eat.

Just now Su Liyan also said that to Sun Hanhua, right?

Regarding this matter, Ji Lingxiao is also truly helpless.

You say…… you've already cultivated, so why don't we properly study cultivation?

This has turned out…… as if studying recipes is Su Liyan's proper profession, while cultivation has become a side job.

Ji Lingxiao feels that if my precious disciple devoted all his thoughts to cultivation,

Who knows, maybe they've already reached the God Transformation Realm by now.

But this matter...

Ji Lingxiao still didn't dare to say...

This matter isn't like Sun Hanhua's; it's due to a bottleneck or something.

Mainly, Ji Lingxiao doesn't know how to tell his precious disciple about this.

After all...

His precious disciple perfectly executed the goal he set for her.

He said he wanted his precious disciple to learn one-third of this immortal technique within three days.

After three days, she will definitely have learned it clearly.

You can't find any fault in it.

What do you say we do about this?

The situation is that he gave his precious disciple three days to study, but she mastered it on the first day and spent the second and third days researching recipes.

When he came to check on the third day, she had learned it flawlessly.

Ji Lingxiao really couldn't say a word.

Recently Ji Lingxiao feels like he's about to burst from holding it in.

Ji Lingxiao wondered whether he should give his disciple more tasks.

He had originally said his disciple could learn it in a day, so he didn't wait three days.

Just one day—once she learned it, he would immediately teach the next.

But this matter isn't that simple.

First, Ji Lingxiao really feels sorry for his precious disciple; she should indeed have some things of her own to do.

Second, it's because of Ji Lingxiao's status—he is the Sect Leader of the Linglan Sword Sect.

There are really many things every day; he can't just stay with his disciple all day.

He also has to manage all the sect's big and small affairs.

Third, and most importantly, his precious disciple is extremely talented; she learns cultivation methods and immortal techniques instantly.

Ji Lingxiao fears that teaching his disciple too much knowledge might ruin her mind.

And end up suffering cultivation deviation or something.

That would be more loss than gain.

For Ji Lingxiao, this is truly a happy problem.

At the same time.

Su Liyan, having come to her senses, immediately looked at Sun Hanhua and spoke in a coquettish voice:

No!!

That's my man!!

Sun Hanhua's stunning mature beauty showed a hint of confusion like a little girl's.

After a moment of shock, Sun Hanhua curiously asked:

If I marry your man, wouldn't your man also become my man?

Su Liyan: ……

As for this senior sister of hers, Su Liyan still had a sense of her.

After all, they've known each other for over a month.

This senior sister looks cold and unapproachable, but actually her heart is very pure, like a fifteen- or sixteen-year-old village girl.

Regarding some matters, she is extremely naive, even ignorant.

Perhaps this senior sister, from childhood, has only studied alchemy and cultivation, and nothing else at all.

She often says shocking, outrageous things.

This isn't the first time; after being startled, Su Liyan has come to accept it.

Immediately, Su Liyan spoke in a coquettish voice:

Hmm... it's not like that, anyway... no...

It's like, would you be willing to share your most precious thing with others?

After blinking, Sun Hanhua looked at Su Liyan and spoke seriously:

If it's Liyan, I'm willing.

Having said that, Sun Hanhua didn't give Su Liyan time to react; immediately her hand flashed, and a golden elixir appeared in her hand.

Sun Hanhua hesitated not, directly splitting the golden elixir in half.

One half, she directly handed to Su Liyan, saying seriously:

This half is for you.

Su Liyan was stunned.

Su Liyan: ……

Meanwhile, behind the big stone, Ji Lingxiao naturally also saw this scene.

Ji Lingxiao also well knew how precious that golden elixir in Sun Hanhua's hand was.

Sun Hanhua actually gave half of it to Su Liyan.

Seeing this, Ji Lingxiao went numb.

Leaning against the giant stone, he covered his face with his jade hand.

What sin!!

This Lu Yuan really is causing trouble ah!!!

……

At this moment, Lu Yuan was driving his little Benben, speeding about the playground of Qingbei University.

The students in the stands around were cheering, excited.

The first car of the Great Zhou Dynasty has been built.

The style of this car is that of an old-fashioned car from the Republic of China era on Earth, namely a Beetle style.

It's not that Lu Yuan intentionally wanted to go retro or anything.

It's just that the current first-generation engine is relatively large, so they made it this shape to look better.

In the future, they will gradually improve it.

As Lu Yuan was driving, he suddenly sneezed.

Damn it, who's cursing me behind my back!

Thanks not much also send scissors old brother's 600 book coins reward, thank you very much~

Thanks ah to old brother's 100 book coins reward, thank you very much~
