Chapter 350
The Thoughts of Yin Zhenluo
The night was as cold as water.
In the sky, a bright moon hung high. Its clear radiance flowed and sprinkled onto the ground. It was a beautiful sight to behold.
In the Hundred Spirits Garden, white cranes walked, spirit apes climbed, butterflies danced, insects chirped, water trickled, and fish leaped. It was a natural scene.
There was a pond filled with lotus flowers. Huge green leaves floated on the surface of the water. A few colorful frogs tapped on the green leaves with their four limbs. Their cheeks puffed out two bubbles, making croaking sounds. Occasionally, a few thin spiders would dash across the surface of the water. The spiders treaded on the water at an astonishing speed. If one wasn't powerful enough, they wouldn't be able to see them at all!
In the center of the pond was a bridge made of white silk. On one side was a wing that led to the Hundred Spirits Garden, and on the other side was the exit to the Hundred Spirits Garden.
This bridge emitted a lustrous glow. It was as warm as yin. Talismans the size of flies revolved quietly, making it impossible for people to detect them.
A woman stood on the bridge, looking at the night scenery of the lotus pond. She was dressed in a white dress, her fine black hair draped over her shoulders, reaching her waist. Her devastatingly beautiful face was filled with worry. Her clear eyes were filled with a myriad of thoughts, containing complicated emotions. She looked up at the bright moon in the sky, not saying a word for a long time. She stood quietly on the bridge, and in the end, she let out a silent sigh.
This woman was Yin Zhenluo. She took off her armor and wasn't as sharp as before. Almost no one could see when Yin Zhenluo was at her weakest.
Only Xuanyuan.
Xuanyuan looked at Yin Zhenluo from afar. His thoughts were very complicated. There were some feelings that he couldn't voice out. He also didn't understand what Yin Zhenluo was thinking.
Xuanyuan recalled the day when he first met Yin Zhenluo. She was lying quietly on his bed with tears on her long eyelashes, looking serene and calm …
Xuanyuan was lost in thought as he stared.
Yin Zhenluo turned around and was about to go back to her room, but she saw Xuanyuan looking at her. She couldn't help but be startled. She paused and said softly,
"Xuanyuan."
"Beautiful master …" Xuanyuan came back to his senses and said without thinking.
"What's wrong?" Yin Zhenluo smiled and asked.
"Nothing. I just suddenly remembered when I first met you." Xuanyuan chuckled.
"Yes, time flies. It's been almost three years in the blink of an eye. Your growth has far exceeded my expectations. It's not easy to get to where you are today." Yin Zhenluo sighed. Xuanyuan was a head shorter than her back then, but now Xuanyuan was much taller than her.
"Haha, it's all luck. If it weren't for beautiful master, I wouldn't be here today. I might have died in the wild at the hands of the Yue family." Xuanyuan was slightly surprised. He looked at Yin Zhenluo's beautiful but unhappy face. There was an indescribable feeling in his heart. He wanted to comfort Yin Zhenluo, but he didn't know what to say.
"Have you really made up your mind?" Yin Zhenluo frowned when she saw Xuanyuan's carefree expression. "It's up to fate.
In this life, I don't want to owe anyone anything. I will use my own strength to break free from the shackles of destiny. Master, don't worry. I will break free from the shackles. The bug is nothing. I believe I can do it. "Xuanyuan's words were firm. Yin Zhenluo paused for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said," It's all up to the heavens.
"Alright, I know no one can change your mind once you've made up your mind. But don't call me beautiful master anymore. Remember that I only promised to be your master for a month. We're no longer master and disciple."
Xuanyuan's heart skipped a beat. His face turned pale and his eyes froze. He couldn't say anything for a moment!
Yin Zhenluo was also stunned when she saw Xuanyuan's expression. Her heart was filled with all sorts of emotions.
She said, "Xuanyuan, can you tell me what you think of me?"
Xuanyuan paused for a long time before he slowly said, "To protect you and not let you get hurt.
As long as you're willing, I'll support whatever you want to do. Of course, I can't go against my heart. "
"What is going against your heart?" Yin Zhenluo raised her beautiful eyes. She was clearly very happy to hear what Xuanyuan said.
Seeing Yin Zhenluo's enchanting smile, Xuanyuan was dazed for a moment. Sensing that she was happy, Xuanyuan heaved a sigh of relief. He had originally thought that Yin Zhenluo hated him.
"Yes, it's something I don't want to do," Xuanyuan said after a pause.
"Then if I don't want the Empyrean Fairy and the Holy Maiden of Cold Sky to invite you away, does that count as going against your heart?" Yin Zhenluo's teeth were as white as pearls, and her lips were slightly parted. She smiled and raised the corners of her eyes.
"That doesn't count," Xuanyuan said.
Yin Zhenluo laughed happily. Her voice rang out like silver bells. Not far away, the white cranes spread their wings and let out cries when they heard Yin Zhenluo's laughter. Many fishes leaped out of the water. Under the moonlight, they were especially dazzling!
Yin Zhenluo slowly walked in front of Xuanyuan. She stretched out her delicate hand and tidied up Xuanyuan's hair. She said softly, "Thank you.
"Alright, you must be tired these past few days. Take a good rest, I will have the Nether Dragon Tribe search for a way to get rid of the Heart Devouring Dragon Bug, and as for the 'Profound Daughter of the Nine Heavens' and the 'Holy Maiden of Cold Sky', they might have a way to get rid of the Heart Devouring Dragon Bug for you. I think they will invite you during this period of time, so you can go when the time comes.
Xuanyuan nodded. He clearly didn't understand the meaning of Yin Zhenluo's last sentence.
"Understood, beautiful master!"
"......" Yin Zhenluo couldn't help but feel a little annoyed when she heard how Xuanyuan addressed her. She said in annoyance, "I already said I don't want to be your master. Don't call me beautiful master anymore."
"Then what should I call you?" Xuanyuan's eyes twitched. "What should I call you? Miss Yin? I'm not used to it. If it's Zhen Luo, it feels weird … "
"In any case, don't call me beautiful master anymore. What do you call Shi Yan?" Yin Zhenluo said.
"It's Shi Yan, Miss Shi …" Xuanyuan said.
"That's right. What's there to not be used to?" Yin Zhenluo said confidently.
"Alright, then can I call you Zhen Luo?" Xuanyuan felt that Yin Zhenluo was close to him, so it would be better to call her that. Calling her Miss Yin would be too distant.
Yin Zhenluo's lips curled up into an enchanting smile.
"Mm, sure. Go back and rest!"
Xuanyuan nodded and turned to leave. When he returned to his room, Yin Zhenluo's heart was beating very fast. No matter what, her relationship with Xuanyuan had at least progressed. At the very least, she didn't want to be Xuanyuan's master. She didn't want to lie to her heart. Everything had to go according to her feelings.
Xuanyuan returned to his room. The furnishings were very simple. There was only a table and a chair. Xuanyuan sat cross-legged on the chair. His heart was also beating very fast.
"Haha, what's wrong, little one? Are you having sex? Your beautiful master has fallen in love with you. Tsk tsk, what an incestuous love. Everyone knows that you two are master and disciple. This is an indisputable fact. If you two are really together, I'm afraid all kinds of rumors will spread all over the world. "Greed laughed, taking pleasure in other people's misfortune.
"Don't spout nonsense." Xuanyuan's heart was beating very fast. The way Yin Zhenluo looked at him was obviously different from before. In the past, he was just a little child in her eyes. Now, Yin Zhenluo's eyes contained an indescribable thought that Xuanyuan couldn't understand.
"Forget it, I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going to break through the second hidden acupuncture point and try to activate all seven hidden acupuncture points in my body. Only then can I truly refine the Blue Dragon's inner core. If I lose to the Blue Dragon, then the problem of the Heart Devouring Bug will be left to it to worry about." Xuanyuan didn't want to worry about this relationship that wasn't clearly expressed. The most important thing now was strength! He needed to break through!
When he stepped into the Celestial Fighter Realm, he would be able to fully use the power of the Red Lotus Hellfire. At that time, he would see if he could refine and burn the Heart Devouring Bug!
"That's right. The Emperor Devouring has been invited by the Emperor of Mount Tai. You should take this time to practice. If it breaks through to the Celestial Fighter Realm, it will be able to get rid of its current appearance. When that time comes, it won't be easy for anyone to recognize it!" The Greedy Old Man laughed. He knew that Xuanyuan didn't want to be entangled in these issues, so he didn't ask further. After all, he was still better than the Great Pig.
"Hmm? If that's the case, then that's great! " Xuanyuan was very happy. At least in the future, he wouldn't need a pig-headed, dog-bodied monster following him. Yes, that's right, it was a monster!
"I'll try to make another breakthrough during this period of time!" Xuanyuan sat cross-legged and took out the pure Spiritual Source that he won from the Virtuous King the Eighth.
"Young man, don't tell me you want to use the pure Spiritual Source to practice?" The Greedy Old Man exclaimed.
"Of course!" Xuanyuan said confidently.
"… That's too extravagant. Using the pure Spiritual Source to practice. If people outside were to find out, they would definitely slap you to death. Although the pure Spiritual Source is not rare, generally speaking, those below the Seventh Cycle of the Celestial Fighter Realm only need to use the pure Fighting Source to practice, or use a different kind of Fighting Source to practice. You, a Dou Huang, use the pure Spiritual Source to practice. How can those in the Celestial Fighter Realm who still use the pure Fighting Source to practice endure?" The Greedy Old Man laughed out loud. Xuanyuan's ambition was indeed getting bigger and bigger. He wasn't as petty as before, hiding everything and reluctant to use it like a little beggar. This person really needed to experience more in order to have a broader vision!
"Only by using the pure Spiritual Source to practice can I speed up the speed of my breakthrough. If I had to rely on myself to practice, I don't know how long I would have to wait. In the past, I had to raise you and the dead pig, so I saved as much as I could. Now that the bitter days are over, I naturally want to enjoy it." Xuanyuan laughed heartily and opened the fighting ring. Two thousand kilograms of pure Spiritual Source emitted a frighteningly dense Dou Qi of the world. It entered every pore of Xuanyuan's body. The huge amount of Dou Qi of the world filled his entire body, making Xuanyuan cry out in joy. His entire body was directly immersed in a universe.
