Chapter 318: Master, Don’t Be Polite!
In the Sect Master’s bedroom, Li Ran was lying on the bed with Shen Ning in his arms.
As for Chu Lingchuan, she was sitting by the bed, holding Shen Ning’s small hand. Sword Qi slowly flowed into her body, silently nourishing her bones.
Li Ran was speechless. “Master, is this the method you came up with?”
So she was planning to sit here all night?
Chu Lingchuan helplessly said, “Then what do you say we do?”
Two looked at each other, the atmosphere a little awkward.
Li Ran thought for a moment and said via voice transmission, “How about this? I’ll coax her to sleep first and then slip away.”
“Mn, that’s fine.” Chu Lingchuan nodded.
Shen Ning’s head was in Li Ran’s arms. She smiled charmingly and said, “Big brother is so fragrant.”
She tilted her head and thought for a moment before continuing, “It’s very similar to Master’s.”
“Ah?” Li Ran was stunned.
Chu Lingchuan reacted and said in a low voice, “It should be because you used the bath.”
Bath was her exclusive use. No one else had ever used it.
The fragrance beside the pool was called Sword Scale. It could awaken one’s mind, and the fragrance did not dissipate for months. Moreover, only the ones on Cloud Sword Island had it.
It was precisely because of this that their smell was so similar.
Thinking about how he had used the same bath, Chu Lingchuan couldn’t even lift her head. It was as if all of her secrets had been exposed to him.
“Too embarrassing…”
Air suddenly became quiet.
There was only a faint sword intent enshrouding the room.
Li Ran looked at Shen Ning’s jade-like appearance and asked curiously, “Master, is it really okay for you to inject sword Qi into her body like this?”
After all, she was a little girl who hadn’t trained in Qi. Her body was simply too weak.
Chu Lingchuan shook her head and said, “Sword Qi only circulates in her body, using it to continuously stimulate her innate martial body and stimulate her potential to the maximum.”
Although the innate martial body was powerful, its ability would only appear after she reached Deity Transformation realm.
Through the stimulation of her pure sword intent, she could stimulate this potential ahead of time, allowing Shen Ning to win at the starting line.
“I see.” Li Ran thought of something and asked, “Must it be sword Qi? Will blade energy, spear energy, and the like work?”
“Of course.” Chu Lingchuan smiled. In fact, no matter what kind of weapons they were, they were all called ‘astral qi’. You really don’t think that the Myriad Sword Pavilion only knows how to use swords, do you?”
Myriad Sword Pavilion was a Martial Cultivation Sect.
Apart from the nine short and nine long, eighteen kinds of weapons, there was also the magistrate’s brush, the phoenix tail radium, the crescent moon thorn, and other odd weapons. It was just that swords were the main stream.
As for this, it was only at the beginning of one’s cultivation. As one’s cultivation base gradually increased, there was no point in using any weapon.
As long as the energy was pure, even a grass stalk could cut through the sun, moon, and stars.
Li Ran nodded his head and said, “That’s good. That way, I can help Shen Ning stimulate her potential.”
“Oh?”
Chu Lingchuan asked curiously, “Could it be that you also have ‘astral qi’?”
“I should, right?” Li Ran opened his palm.
A ball of silver light suddenly lit up, giving off an aura that seemed to be as sharp as a blade. It was as if it was about to cut through the air.
Chu Lingchuan was stunned.
Not only did Li Ran have a strong aura, but it was also incomparably pure.
Looking at the sharp light that cut through everything, even the Elders of Sect could not do this, right?
She knew that the other party was a dual cultivator of Dao and Martial Arts. She originally thought that he only possessed the power of a blood devil, but she never thought that he was truly proficient in Martial Arts.
She gulped. “You… How did this happen?”
This guy wasn’t even twenty years old!
Even if it was refined day and night, it couldn’t have reached this level, right?
Li Ran scratched his head. “I was just playing around. It came out after practicing.”
When he obtained the Cloud Feather Spear, he also obtained a spear intent. After such a long period of cultivation, it had grown stronger and stronger.
…….
“Practice and play?” Chu Lingchuan looked at him faintly. “Are you a monster?”
If these words were to spread out, many geniuses in the sect would be angered to death.
After a long time, she came back to her senses and shook her head. “Even if you have ‘astral qi’, you can’t use it on Shen Ning. Purification requires strong control.”
With the destructive power of his ‘astral qi’, even if he accidentally leaked a trace of it, it could cause irreparable damage to Shen Ning.
“Alright then.” Li Ran nodded.
At this moment, he noticed that Shen Ning was already asleep. He said in a low voice, “Master, the little fellow is asleep. I’ll go back first.”
As he said that, he prepared to get up.
Chu Lingchuan hesitated for a moment before saying, “Wait… I’ll help you nurture it.”
Li Ran was stunned. “Help me nurture it?”
Chu Lingchuan nodded and said, “You’re able to reach such a level just by casually practicing. Your body will definitely have endless potential. How about I use Sword Qi to help you cleanse your marrow and completely activate it?” she asked.”
No matter what, the other party still called her master. She really could not bear to watch his potential being wasted.
“That’s fine.” Li Ran scratched his head. “Then what should I do?”
Chu Lingchuan said in a low voice, “You don’t need to do anything. Just give me your hand.”
“Oh.” Li Ran took the initiative to hold her delicate hand.
She was cold and delicate.
He couldn’t help but brush her palm.
Chu Lingchuan’s body trembled, and her face flushed red. She glared at him in embarrassment. “If you dare to move, I won’t help you with purification!”
Only then did Li Ran behave himself.
She took a deep breath and calmed herself before a white light slowly lit up in her hand.
Li Ran only felt a cold aura enter his body and circulate through his meridians, but he did not feel uncomfortable at all.
On the contrary, his mind calmed down, and he felt as if he was completely transparent.
“Master, how long will this process last?”
Chu Lingchuan said, “It depends on the individual’s physique. One blow is definitely not enough. Back then, Jianli had been nurtured for more than half a month.”
“Is that so…”
Li Ran replied, “Then it’s better for master to come up and lie down. Otherwise, sitting here all night isn’t a solution.”
“No need,” she said.
Chu Lingchuan shook her head in panic. “It’s good enough for me to sit here.”
“Don’t be polite, master. Treat it like your own home.”
“This is my own home!”
……
Night fell.
Chu Lingchuan was half lying on the bed, her face red as if she had a fever.
As for Li Ran, he was beside her. His breathing was very steady, and he was clearly in a deep sleep.
His head was buried in her arms, his hands tightly around her waist. She could almost feel his heartbeat.
Chu Lingchuan covered his hot cheeks.
“I just want to help him cultivate his ‘astral qi’. Why is it like this?”
“He’s killing me…”
